That would certainly work, but my friend who asked me about this wants to play an artificer/Fighter/Warforged Juggernaut,
around 10-14th level, this build would likely drop the fighter and then enter WFJ around 11th (13th with level adjust from Half-Ogre). I do like the idea and renegade mastermaker would fit the character idea well I think, so I will send this off to him as a suggestion.
Does anyone have any other ideas that would require less investment?
