Best feats for Champion of Corellion?
« on: July 17, 2011, 04:07:12 AM »
The Champ gets 4 bonus feats, with some stipulations:

- must be a fighter feat
- must have dodge, combat expertise, or mounted combat as a prereq

Now then, I'm not sure what to pick. My character is going to be a sort of dex-tank wielding an Elven Court Blade. I don't ever plan on riding a mount, so which feats would best fill these slots?

EDIT: I should mention I'm only allowed feats from any 3.5 book

There are a few more options that that (although not many).
Melee Evasion (PHB2)
Combat Defense (PHB2)
Shadowborn Warrior (DotU)
Defensive Archery (RotW)
... and probably several others. This was only from a quick perusal of realmshelps. Melee Evasion is probably useful, being effectively Wall of Blades at will against your Dodge target (still 1/round due to the immediate action).

eternal blade from tob is infinitely better than coc .. i know you didnt ask for build advice, but have you considered that class instead? maybe only take the first 2 levels of coc to get dex to damage, and then go into eternal. 

something like this perhaps: crusader 8/ coc 2/ eternal 10.

very simple, but very powerful.

also, if you can wrangle up some feat room, (or take 2 levels of fighter instead of 2 of the crusader levels) you can take the martial stance/martial study (shadow hand) feats and finally the shadow blade feat.  slap the adaptive ability on your courtblade and you get dex to damage again.

I kind of like Defensive Strike and Improved trip. I can see myself using those. Not sure what the best choices are besides those...
