YAVP - OpFi transmuter 15 runes Hepl
All in all due to auxliary attacks I think Op unarmed is roughly similar to Claws 3 (not counting constrict).
With 15 int I never really got lesser beckoning to a great range even with 18 translocations for cblink so it never replaced transference (isn't it a beam anyway? so it can't do the same thing?)
I opted for Hepl battlemage instead of Okawaru. Some Observations about Hepl:
-The BM is very helpful in the early game. He will often hit for !! with staff and since you hit for similar at best until your skills are high he is basically permanent finesse early on. At 19 with lajatang he gets !!! hits often so you need to hit better than this to have finesse overtake it
-Your buddy is not really a tank but you can use em to take a lot of pressure off of you for a small period of time which is really nice for species like Op or Fe
-Later in the game I started to hit a lot harder than him but transference is really nice on a mostly melee guy and hiding behind him while you send him at an nequoxec or OOF is nice for dealing with mutations or for blocking dispel undead. There were a number of times I simply grabbed a pan lord from behind 5 guys and killed him in a few turns to defuse things. Did the same thing with at least 50% of extended bosses, being able to grab mnoleg was nice although killing him in lich form took longer than I liked.
- I wouldn't say its ideal but Hepl is actually pretty good in extended for melee guys, I had a number of tools like controlled blink others might not have. If those are lacking its really rather nice.
- All in all for melee Op I think I would take Hepl over Oka every time
