So, I just finished an Aasimar Scourge life, which was a LOT of fun. Now I need 3 Shifter lives to get back my racial completionist.

Looking at the racial tree, the first thing that comes to mind is barb, with extra rages. The shifter rage only bumps Con, the barb rage bumps Str and Con. Fine, but what to do with the +2 dex? Two weapon barb? Ick.

The next things are Druid and Monk. I don't do those well, too many buttons.

Raging Ranger with scimitars?

I saw a lvl 30 Shifter/Fighter at the bank, just 4 days after release, so that must be a good choice. I didn't note the weapon(s).

I've started a barb, the 13 points in the racial tree gives some will saves, natural armor, other goodies. THF, with cleaves galore, just needs the perfect weapon. Same as always.

Not seeing a lot of benefit from this race. What is anyone else planning to do with a Shifter?

Thanks for sharing.
