HI
I am trying to make either a human or a dwarf fighter but a low level he will never make it over level 10 ( probably ) so what I need is stats ie whats best to set strength,dex etc to from the start and also which feats to take through out the level up process im not too keen on multiclassing but would consider any help
thanks

Balthus Dire Str based half-orc pure fighter would be my choice given only 10 levels. So many feats you can go exotic, use dualwield kukri's too. I would think that dwarf is the way to go.

Boost your con and drop the idea og taking IKD or something like that.

18 str, 18 con.

It's a good heavy machine and it can do really well. Thanks
I was thinking of a half orc or orc but i quite liked the extra feat for a human fighter. For a half orc fighter just max out the strength ? and leave dex low or add *** much to that aswell

Balthus Dire For tenth level?

I'd go human or dwarf. Definitely STR and CON are the biggies. Although you might try going DEX, as parry would be useful at that level.

Human

Base Attributes
STR 16
DEX 15
CON 16
WIS 8
INT 10
CHA 8

Attribute bonuses: both go to STR

Feats
Level 1: Toughness, Exotic Weapon Proficiency, Weapon Focus (Kukri)
Level 2: Ambidexterity
Level 3: Two-Weapon Fighting
Level 4: Knockdown
Level 6: Blind-Fight, Skill Focus (Parry)
Level 8: Improved Critical (Kukri)
Level 9: Iron Will
Level 10: Improved Two-Weapon Fighting

Final Hitpoints 140 (max every level)

Skillpoints 39
Concentration 13 (16)
Discipline 13 (17)
Parry 13 (18)

Saves
Fortitude 11
Reflexes 5
Will 4

That build should do nicely at level 10. You might also want to consider an elf, you would lose HP, but an immunity to sleep and resistance to enchantments can be nice against low level mages.
