Silver Crusade

Surtr. one hella THICC boi.

the basic premise is, he is totally LE/NE, SLOW, tough as adamantine, and hits hard, once.

Build rules- will use PF society rules for convenience, save I am unsure if the Orc butchering Axe is allowed, I will be using that weapon for now.

What I have so far, looking for ideas, or otherwise to fit the feel of a slow, hard hitting, walking tank.

Half-Orc (sacred tattoo's, shamans apprentice)
Traits: Fates Favored, ???
fighter 11/barbarian 1 (?)
1- Fighter
2- Fighter
3- Fighter
4- Fighter
5- Fighter
6- Figher....
12- Barbarian

Stats- 20 pt buy
Str: 19 +2 +1 at 4, 8, 12
Dex: 12
Con: 16
Int: 10
Wis: 10
Cha: 07

Feats:
1- Power attack, Furious Focus
2- Weapon Focus
3- Iron will
4- Weapon specialization
5- Advanced weapon training
6- Vital Strike
7- Devastating Strike
8- Advanced Armor Training? (cornugon smash?)
9- Improved Iron will (hurtful?)
10- Advanced Weapon training
11- Improved Vital Strike

Advanced Armor Training: (2)
Armored Juggernaught- around level 7+
Armor Specialization

Advanced weapon training-
5- Armed Bravery
9- Warrior Spirit
10- Either Combat Maneuver Defense (for +4 to CMD), or Defensive Weapon Training (Ex) (for about a +3-4 to AC)

Items to Have-
minimum +1 Impact Butchering Axe, Gloves of Dueling (for +4/+4 weapon training) belt of physical Perfection (+2)?? cloak of res +2(?), amulet of NA +2, ring of prot +2.

Rough estimate of outcomes at mid point (level 7), and end point (level 11)

The Idea is always vital strike with furious focus. This nets a-
at level 7 (when things start to come together past, SMASH)
+15-16 to hit, and 6d6+19 damage (8d6+21 if enlarged) and AC of 23-24, HP of ~65 (assuming minimum of +1 weapon, and +1 armor)

at level 11 (assuming a minimum of +1 impact BA, and gloves of dueling)
~+24 to hit, and ~12d6+31 damage (18d6+32 damage if enlarged)
AC of ~30+, HP of ~115.

Any thoughts/ideas? I believe everything save maybe the butchering Axe is PF society legal. I hope the Axe is, otherwise I will be mildly disappointed in Paizo.


Warrior spirit wasn't legal in PFS last I heard. Far too useful and flexible. I think maybe hurtful was nerfed or disallowed too? I didn't think evil alignments were allowed either.

I wonder if there's a way to do something like this with more barbarian, maybe with furious finish? I'll think about it.

I don't see any reason why warrior spirit would be banned but ALL the other classes with an option to add +X to their weapon would not be. Thats one reason I DON'T play society. That said, warrior spirit was just a "freebie" so to speak, so you could ghosttouch your weapon if need etc. Hurtful was a "maybe?" so no big deal there.

I had considered barb as well, the titan fighter one to be excat (one that lets you wield two-handed weapons that are sized for creatures larger than you)
