build question

[Shade2891]

I have a Half-Orc Favored soul currently 4 and I am thinking about changing the plan on my feats a bit and looking for advice.

current build

20 str 16 con 12 cha

feats(in order): Greatsword, toughness, empower healing, maximise, quicken, IC slashing, power attack

thinking of splashing 2 levels of fighter and swaping greatsword prof for the full THF line curious as to whether this is a good choice break even or bad idea any help from the more experianced players would be welcome

thanks in advance

*edit*

If I did the 2 fighter levels they would be at 8 and 20 I would swap greatsword for THF and then use the fighter bonus feats for ITHF and GTHF and possibly swap empower healing for empower so I would have emp/maximised DP. as an added bonus I would get Tower Shield prof

1) Do you have enough dex for I/GTWF?

2) Going from 20 to 18 takes away a huge amount of spellcasting and survivability.

Even on a melee focused FvS, I would always go pure.

Two handed fighting I'll have plenty of strength for it and I know that there are trade offs to multi classing I would only get 1 level 9 spell with 18 levels of FvS. I don't know if the full line of THF would help with DPS as it only increases the damage of the glancing blows.

If I figure it right in loses I have
spell pen, 2 spell slots, capstone, DR/10 from level 20

I gain
Full line of THF, tower shield prof, no feat for greatsword/great axe etc.

Based upon what you gain and lose by taking 2 fighter levels, I'd recommend staying pure. The THF line really doesn't help you much, and you'd be giving up a whole lot of good stuff for it.
