Hate tank/stun dps

[Seljuck]

Hi all!

Here is my new build for my toon after TR. I want to create stun-dps / hate tank. I chose 18barb/2ftr for 2 extra feats and speed boost. Since pure barb have only 7 feats and need this crapy cleave i cant take toughness and stunning blow. I know i will lose capstone and mighty rage which is 4 str / 2 con but i realy want to have stunning blow and high HP if i want to be tank.

So here is what i made:

Advices , suggestions are welcome!

An 18/2 split is good if you are TWF. The capstone isn't worth the loss, imo for THF.

Drop SF:Intim, as it wont make or break your build; it doesn't read that you are going to be shield blocking, just get some hate gear and hold control that way. Your intim score will still be more than high enough for trash if that is what you are worried about.

You still can't get toughness and stunning blow, but if you put the 6 points from dex/int/wis into con you can make up for most of it, minus the enhancements. Your hp should be enough for most content anyway without it. Depending on your weapon choice you might also drop IC:slash (for example if you use min2 for tanking most of the time.)

[Seljuck]

Well IC:slash must stay cuz i work on my eSos. (Need 'only' shard) and this will be my main weapon on lv 20 with Marilith chain and Bold trinket. Min 2 I will use for raid bosses to bypas DR when i create it =P

Hmm now I see that .. when i drop 2ftr lv with this build and when i take 20 con and 20 lv of barb (mighty rage) I will have same hp as now. But i will dont have ftr speed boost ;(

[NinjaNeed]

Your going THF so dont take 2 levels of fighter. IMO drop the higher tiers of THF and take toughness and stunning blow. I did that and have no problem holding agro as a hate tank.

[Shade]

Looks good.. couple minor issues:

Alignment.
Good = bad for a tank, you take extra dmg from the many sources of unholy attacks.

Stats:
Good..
But imo its not best to completely min max like that on a dwarf tankish build.

Recommend 16/17 con instead, and a higher dex. Reflex saves are quite important for a tank, and well worth the minor loss of hp for a build that easily reachs 800+.

See guides in sig for more comprehensive info on alignment and stats. 18/2 split vs pure is covered in there too.

[unbongwah]

If you want a hate tank, might not WF or HO w/Brute Fighting enhs be better?

Well yes.. WF or Ho could be better but i dont have them yet. So left me only dwarf..

To be honest i forget to change alignment.. It should be True neutral or chaotic neutral.. dont chose it yet.
