Looking for a good non-lawful tank build

[shanytopper]

I'm re-starting this game after a long break.I got the following mods:

-Advanced Martial Arts

-Call of the Wild

-Eldrich Arcana



Now I am looking to create my MC, I know I want him to have the following things:

1- High Charisma

2- Be a tank

3- Not be lawful (I am considering between Natural Good and Chaotic Evil... Might have 2 playthroughs just for kicks)



This means I can't take monk nor paladin.

So... How do I make a good tank without those two?

TSS 3, bard 11

I always wanted to make a magus/duelist combo tank. Make sure you pick a magus that uses int though if you do. You would need a lot of stats too. INT, DEX, CON, STR are all important (with respect to level of importance)

Warpriest or Battle-mystery oracle are good choices.

[Orange]

Bard -> grab a shield (even works with tower shields) and rely on mirror image/displacement for extra dodges

Magus Eldritch Scion -> Draconic Bloodline natural armor buffs and mirror image/displacement

Sorcerer + Dragon Disiciple -> Reliant on Form of the Dragon + Transformation spell for tanking

OR

You can ignore the charisma and simply pick a class with Persuasion as a class skill (+3) and the Half-elf race so you can bump it another +3 (and eventually +6) through racial skill focus (or just take the human and alocate 1 feat to achieve the same results minus the +2 to perception and elven blood defenses)

I somehow missed the high charisma part the first time. Warpriest is out. Battle mystery oracle is really your bets option.

Note though that there are traits introduced by the mods you dowloaded that allow you to base UMD or Persuasion off your Intelligence modifer instead. So a high-int class could work.
