This one almost made me weep. I am strongly tempted to D.A. out of hand, but feel compelled to at least make an effort --
I am considering 13-16-14-17-8-9-7TP or ST or PS, in about that order. Hopefully some low-level lowlife will assassinate him, allowing me to bloodfeud with another weak fighter!
Thoughts?

Sorry, Kid! That one is pretty bad. Your design looks fine, though I'd move that last point of will to strength or constitution. I wouldn't be able to make it a ST or PS with those bases. TP or BA for me. Ok, I'll be honest. Basher all the way. Shows bonuses very well

Come on! Surely not?
This is a pretty nice arena basher to us.
We wish a lot of our warriors were up to this snuff.

13-16-14-11-3-9-4 --> 15-17-14-17-7-9-5 BA
He can comfortably carry APA/F MA back-up MA. I'd run him 10-10-Dec in minute 1, slowing down in 2+ and changing it up in desperation. Learn skills all the way.
He'll win some fights because he gets the jump. He'll win other fights because he has tremendous hit points. He'll lose some fights because he has a 7 WL. He'll lose other fights because he is a BA. But he looks like a capable arena warrior to me.

After a lot of handwringing, I decided to keep my original design and just change style-- meet my new Basher! Although, I'm very curious to see how this sort of low WL/ high CN TP would do...
I just HATE having DF so low! A seven DF makes me nervous; less than this makes me feel nauseous. I realize that BA's can handle low DF, but I've run a few with DF of 13+ and they hit hard, often, and accurately, and rose quickly in the ranks!! (And then died...)
We'll have to see how it works out. Thanks everyone for your advice. As usual, greatly appreciated.
