Shifter Wolf Trip Build (Unfair)..... will it work?

[Dave]

Now...i play ONLY on Unfair. games like this are too easy, and get too easy the more you level up and find good items, so i'm not really interested in any difficulty level under the max setting..i feel it like a waste of time

This said....i was thinking of a Shifter (Base class) going Wolf for free Trip on bite.

With Shifter i get enough dex/str + some feats, to be able to face the pretty high AC/CMD I meet in the unfair run.

Studying this, i found some issues that maybe, someone with more experience with this kind of build, could help to work out.

1. I know there are Trip immune enemies late in the game. So is it worth going this build, or i end up with having useless talents at a certain point in the game cos i can't trip anything?

2. Manticore Shifter goes to 14 attacks. Fey/Dino shifter go to 11 attacks, and Fey has 10d6 Sneak on all his 11 attacks. Wolf has 1 Bite, it will go to 3-4 bites, with a trip attempt to each of them. 14/11 vs 3/4...is trip worth it?

3. Shifter has 10 feats (11 human). Trip line uses 4 (Comb Exp, Trip, Fury's Tail, Big Trip). Considering 3-4 will be Trickster crit talents, that leaves very little room for anything else. Worth it?


Any suggestion is appreciated, thank you.

One thing I can add to this, with Demon as Mytic you can "loop" your attacks with a trip, even if the enemy is immun to it as far as I understood. So is you want to go Trickster it might not be as good as it would be as Demon.

The "loop" will do additional attacks for days as long as you keep hitting... should work on unfair as well.
