The final level spread for this build is courtesy of Crimson Clover who's a GM at AntiWorld, he's the one that made me think of Druid 27/Shifter 10/Monk 3. Cheers, mate!

Heh, best bet for a wizard would be a lvl 9 Bigby, perhaps.
Damn, these guys should be a pain to face off with a caster.
How does the bless weapon thing work with Raks? Can you cast bless weapon and kill them, or must you cast bless on x-bow bolts like in PnP? _________________ I see the fear you have inside, you can run but never hide. I will hunt you down and tear you limb from limb.

Nice, Finn. You're on a rak-roll
Monk is nice here; not only for speed, but also the AC boost. With 30 wis, this fellow can turn into a dragon, to which all the monk stuff translates over (ok, only level 3, but still, unarmed and improved unarmed, etc., not to mention that the dragon, with enhanced str etc., can melee, and it has the breath cone - might consider a couple more monk levels, for their "free" knockdown & improved knockdown . . . (also work great with mage hunting, and also the divine rak-hunters
As to the bless weapon, I know in PnP it was the bolt; read somewhere that holy avenger/bless weapon might do the same in terms of RPG, but not sure if that's true.
Might want to look into that, though, in case you ever feel the need to hang out in the crypts where those divine types tend to congregate . . . Then, the dragon has no issue there - and mages, well, look out!; great build, Finn! Nice synnergies. Very cool

But what AC does he have when casting his/her ice storms?

The same because while casting spells you are not flatfooted if this is what you wondered. Actually blood frenzy is just -1 AC (dodge), not -2 Finn.
A question: how do you plan to buff DEX to get a +5 modifier?

Notice that the build doesn't get Dragon Shape, even if it gets 30 WIS.
Finn, you could drop 2 great CON feats and get DS and EP, so you would have a good melee shape and put all that WIS to some use. BTW, why are you going for WIS 30?
Nicely done Finn, it's always fun to spam Icestorms in Rakshasa form while spells fizzle on you and damage gets soaked by DR (BTW Greater Stoneskin and Premonition will be better than the Rakshasa natural DR)

True. And I guess DS wouldn't hurt, but I just wanted maximum effiency in Rakshasa shape -- since it doesn't override HP, it's a good bet to boost your CON. I took more WIS solely for the AC boost. This guy can survive casting in melee most of the time, BTW

Yup, thanks!
I'll post the DS version later. _________________ "... C'est un pays plus nu que la terre polaire — Ni bêtes, ni ruisseaux, ni verdure, ni bois!

Oh right! Well, luckily enough I can edit myself that now!
Yeah, that's why I didn't fix it. The normal members give me enough work, let the mods handle their own edits themselves
About the CON increases, I got it, but I also think DS is worth -40 HP/-1 fort save. Anyhow, you are gonna post a DS version, so it doesn't matter anymore
PS: going Druid 26/Shifter 11 would give you the possibility to get also either Undead or Construct Shape together with DS by dropping two Great CONs.
