For reincarnation

[RoboVanguard]

So this is for when I finally reincarnate: just looking for some suggestions or for people to point out some fatal flaws. I think I worked out most of the kinks. It's designed to be a 3-part build: Intimitank, DPS, and Utility. The fighter and stalwart enhancements make it primarily an intimitank build, and intimidate is more or less maxed. The twf feats allow me to significantly increase my dps for when I don't need to tank. The Rogue gives me the umd I need more or less to cast most spells I'll need from scrolls and to use wands of stuff.

Some notes with the builder... To accommodate for the 34/36 point builds that will eventually come into play, I put the two points into charisma as a +2 tome at first level. Actually at 34 points I'll probably put the points into dex to avoid using +2 tomes. I also had to 'eat' a +3 dex tome at some point because the builder didn't like me having the dex from the enhancement to count towards the twf feat. At any rate, I should not need anything more than a +2 tome (which I have from favor) in the end build. Any other tomes I get are just gravy. So here's the meat (in its current state, which has some flaws):

The primary issues I'm having are as follows:
1) UMD might not be high enough: 23 ranks + 8 cha bonus + 6 (shroud item)=37 umd. Ideally I'd like to bump this up to be able to cast heal scrolls, and even though it's 90% at this point (40 umd check for level 6 spells I think) I'd like to bump this up.
2) I have not yet decided on the usefulness of the following feats: mobility+spring attack, and shield mastery +imp shield mastery. I am fairly certain I will not be needing mobility and spring attack, since I can try going for greater and superior weapon focus from fighter levels (incidentally, does greater weapon focus stack with weapon focus or does it override it?) I am also thinking about getting skill focuses in either umd which may solve problem 1 or intimidate if it's needed. Also, inspection of my other feat choices is welcome.

[Quikster]

Add the head of good fortune to your umd calc and that puts you at 39 which is enough for no fail heal scrolls. Also +3 for deleras necklace, or +5 for titan gloves.

The reason I didn't throw in HoGF, cartouche, or titan gloves in the calculation was because I'm not planning on using those items all the time. So I could use the heal scrolls but not very effectively in mid-fight without switching gear. I'm also on the fence regarding shield master and improved shield mastery. Is the 6 DR worth the two feat slots? What other feat choices would be better? My current choices are: (shield mastery+improved shield mastery), (mobility+spring attack), (luck of heroes+iron will), (stunning blow + improved trip).

[Quikster]

you will find it difficult casting in combat regardless of gear switching due to concentration checks, besides equiping the hogf to hit a heal scroll is very minor.

you are going to want somedps feats as well as ce if you are going to be tanking.

[Aranticus]

my advice is lower the charisma, increase con

[RoboVanguard]

my advice is lower the charisma, increase con

I was thinking about that but didn't really know where to put the other two points into. Charisma is pretty useful to me though I don't think the difference between +7 and +8 bonus would be too bad. I'll still be able to get around 450-500 hp with a 12 con though. I also have several +2 con tomes which might help.
