Hello, I am currently struggling with making a character that can hit hard and also get hit back. I also would like to be using a greatsword and heavy armor. Trying to balance the accuracy vs deflection axis and the armor vs action speed axis is giving me headaches. This is what I've come up with so far, but I could use any and all suggestions on how best to accomplish this.

Well you have fighter in there so u can't go bad with it.

I'd not dump INT on this guy.

With rapid recovery and a good INT score ull prolly never need to waste resources on lay on hands so u can use FoD more.

Devil of Caroc breastplate for sure, best one I've seen so far.

Other will probably have better more detailed pointers, I haven't even finished the game yet.

Can you obtain Devil of Caroc Breastplate without importing a save?
