I am shocked, simply appauled! The lack of Dwarven Builds here is simply... UPSETTING! You will find no better fighter than a Dwarf, which is why I've decided to add my long time and well tested build, the Defending Berserker (Working title, it sucks but I'm too lazy to think of something else). However, this build requires a lot of alignment manipulation, but anything is possible. To get the best mix of saves, you have to be willing to spend time changing alignment.
32 STR when Raging and in Defensive Stance 32 CON when Raging and in Defensive Stance
Add some items and the bonus Will save from the Dwarven Defender levels will make the mind spells easier to resist. When added with Rage Will bonus and Defensive Stance save bonus, saves are increased rather nicely. The Natural 27 damage Reduction of this build makes most physical attacks just pink off the skin of this dwarf. The sheer offensive and defensive power of this dwarf makes him one to be reckoned with.
I hope you enjoy this build, it's an journey to achieve but makes a very effective tank. _________________ Did you know 1 in every 10 people are part of a statistic... freaky eh?

Get some Tumble in there to increase AC, maybe some Spellcraft if you have extra kill points lying around to help that natural dwarven save vs spell. If this happens, you will find spells just sort of run away in fear of this dwarf. Pretty neat huh? I allow for total skill customization. I don't care what skills are used, just as long as they get what you want done. _________________ Did you know 1 in every 10 people are part of a statistic... freaky eh?

Considering that the way you have it laid out you need to go in and out of Lawful three or so times. That is a bit rough on the nerves.

I tested this out on a server where I Had to work from 1-40. So that's why it is that way. Feel free to change it up to make it more effecient for one time creation. _________________ Did you know 1 in every 10 people are part of a statistic... freaky eh?
