INT: 6
WIS: 10
CHA: 6

He carries a double-axe (no shield) and he is an all-out damage-dealing warrior type. No rogue or magic types.

This is going to be for a low-magic roleplaying persistant world.

I'm imagining mostly Fighter, but I think dual-classing with some barbarian could make sense as well.

Are you married to those starting stats? I'd recommend starting slightly differently:

STR 17
DEX 15
CON 16
INT 10
WIS 8
CHA 8

If for nothing else than the skill points. I find the more skills I can get, the better I like it. However, if your roleplay concept is the dumb 1/2 Orc paradigm (I believe you mentioned that on the General Discussion forum), then I'd think about some Rogue for Sneak Attack, skill points, Evasion, and it's possibly a good fit with the character concept (the Thug type of Rogue).

Captain's Log, Stardate 6051: had trouble sleeping last night... my hiatal hernia is acting up. The ship is... drafty and damp; I complain but... nobody listens. Nope not married to those stats. They just seemed the most beneficial.

8 Wisdom? So you don't think the -1 to will saves is a big deal?

10 Intelligence? I don't think I really care about any other skills besides discipline. I don't really need any others, do I? Cross-class into spellcraft, to raise saves vs spells, tumble, UMD with rogue, other rogue skills. Name a build that has enough skill points. NOT a 6 INT one at least.... Alright, well how about a a Human, double-axe specialist:

STR: 16
DEX: 15
CON: 16
INT: 10
WIS: 8
CHA: 8

Get more bonus feats from human. Get no multiclass experience penalty. Plus 1 extra skill point per level.

Anyone want to make a build based on this? Something quick (if you have more specific requests I can try to make something more fitting):

Fighter(10), Barbarian(20), Rogue(10)
Half-Orc, any non lawful alignment

STR: 18 (32)
DEX: 15
CON: 14
WIS: 8
INT: 12
CHA: 6

Hitpoints: 520
Skillpoints: 229
Saving Throws (Fortitude/Will/Reflex): 25/15/21
Saving Throw bonuses: Spells: +4, Traps: +6, evasion
BAB: 29
AB (max, naked): 44 (melee), 32 (ranged)
AC (naked/mundane armor/shield only): 22/32
Greater Rage: 6/day, +6 STR/CON, +3 will saves, -2 AC
Terrifying Rage
Thundering Rage

Vinceṛ You might also want to think about Fighter Bard PM.

Maxing out STR early on and having 15 dex can get you dev crit at lvl 21 and improved two weapon fighting.

7 attacks per round (hasted) with dev crit is not to shabby.


You won't have many skill points to juggle around but like someone said, Discipline is key. max it out

You could take a few bard levels pre epic and not affect your dev crit at lvl 21. You'll most likely get lvl 10 PM by level 33 or 34. Should be a good enough build.

I would not bother with pumping PM levels up to get epic spells, your stats will not be worth it for spellcasting. and you'll be busy fighting, best to take focus in that. The extra fighter feats in epic will be handy.
