Building Eberron (Using non-Eberron books)

[Erekose13]

Instead of all cruch in an entire book we could break it down. Say 1 thread for all CW feats. 1 thread for all CW PrCs. etc.

Even so, let's say we have a thread from a book with 100 feats. That means if we spend an average of ten posts per feat (some of which could just be "Okay, now on to feat X--anyone have issues with feat X?" and several "YES" or "NO" votes), that's 25 pages and almost the max thread size

True. I dont know a book with 100 feats, but spells are certainly possible. Or a book with 25 PrCs as each is likely to cause more concern than a bunch of feats. We can continue to break things down though as I think the concept is a valid one. Perhaps for feats we do CW - General Feats; CW - Tactical Feats; etc. I still think that grouping them by book in some fashion will make it easier to spot what has and hasnt been proposed/accepted yet. If I proposed 5 feats from CW I like today. You may not find out for another year that the one you wanted never got consideration cause we missed it. I agree we dont want everything from every book, and I agree that we want to keep each thread managable. But there has to be more organization than random proposals or things will get lost in the shuffle.

Hmm....That's true. What could be a very good idea, then, is to have that checklist somewhere but not make it the discussion or proposal thread. So the big checklist exists for all feats in CW, so when someone proposes 5 of them in a proposal thread, you can check them off the checklist?

 

[Erekose13]

That'd work too. One big thread with lots of books. One post per book with a big list of content. It'd keep it together for those looking to build characters too.

Right.

 

[Erekose13]

So are we letting in classes as per this thread or still encouraging seperate proposals starting from the beginning?

 

[Bront]

Start a proposal thread with the classes everyone agrees on, we'll get it out of the way quickly

Warlock, Scout, Spirit Shamen, Spellthief, Hexblade, (Swashbuckler is in a different thread already), Favored Soul, (Archivist is in another thread), and Marshal.

Just thought I'd warn you guys about some high-level duskblade brokenness. Take the full attack channel spell they get at level 13, (optional) cast wraithstrike if you've custom reasearched it or your DM let you get it (yes, I know it's not on their list, but that's only since one is CV, and the other is PHII, it fits thier flavor and spell list perfectly), add an empower vampiric touch, and full attack the BBEG. Presto, anywhere from 15d6*1.5 to 60d6*15 bonus damage and you're back to full heall virtually garunteed. Doesn't work on constructs. Suicidal on undead.

Wraithstrike is the core component of the breakage, and we've discussed that spell at length elsewhere (was it this thread?). Currently, wraithstrike is not allowed (and neither is the buguiler for at least 5 months).
