Does anyone know if a Savage progression of the ettin was ever done?

An ettin never bathes if it can help it

I think they get that at level 1.  :blink

Here's someone attempt at it  Someone's Attempt at Savage Species Ettin

attempt at making the ettin into a class progression ala Savage
Species. Any constructive criticism? Feedback to improve it?

Level HD BAB Fort Ref Will Skl Pts Special
1 1d8 +0 +2 +0 +0 (2+Int)x4 feat, racial traits
2 2d8 +1 +3 +0 +0 2+Int two-weapon fighting
3 2d8 +1 +3 +0 +0 +2 Str, +3 natural armor
4 3d8 +2 +3 +1 +1 2+Int feat
5 3d8 +2 +3 +1 +1 +2 Con
6 4d8 +3 +4 +1 +1 2+Int +4 natural armor
7 5d8 +3 +4 +1 +1 2+Int +2 Str, -2 Dex, large size,
speed 40
8 5d8 +3 +4 +1 +1 +2 Str
9 6d8 +4 +5 +2 +2 2+Int feat, +5 natural armor
10 6d8 +4 +5 +2 +2 +2 Con
11 7d8 +5 +5 +2 +2 2+Int superior two-weapon
fighting
12 8d8 +6 +6 +2 +2 2+Int +6 natural armor
13 8d8 +6 +6 +2 +2 +2 Str
14 9d8 +6 +6 +3 +3 2+Int feat
15 10d8 +7 +7 +3 +3 2+Int +2 Str, +7 natural armor


I think I would wait until level 15 to give the superior 2-weapon fighting since that seems to be the big win for this creature.  But I haven't savage species'd many creatures.

That's not bad. I'll have to look up and find what "racial traits" means.
