[QUOTE="GrolloStoutfoam, post: 4715536, member: 42692"] (Edit: just notice Contemplative requires Knowledge: religion - 13 ranks. Does your DM allow you to assign skill points from the PrC to bring skills up to requirements? Or do you have to satisfy every requirement prior to entering the PrC) One neat way to up your turning capability is to choose the Glory as your bonus domain from entering the Contemplative PrC instead of Family. Do the melee monkeys always stay within 10' of you? Otherwise the bonus is lost and you only get to do that buff once/day. "The character can choose any domain made available by her deity or alignment" (I have no idea about the Eberron deities and domains but if you are of Good alignment I think the Glory domain fits) Glory (CDiv p139) Turn Undead with a +2 bonus on the Turning Check & +1d6 on the Turning Damage Check. Then an interesting combination would be- 12th: Heighten Turning (Libre Mortis p27) "When you Turn or Rebuke Undead, you may choose a number no higher than your effective Cleric level. Add that number to your Turning Check, then subtract it from your Turning Damage roll." So you can basically shuttle the extra 1d6 from the Glory turning damage to pump your turning check. But why stop there? - 15th: Empower Turning (CDiv p81) "Multiple your Turning Damage (after adding in your Cleric level & your Charisma modifier) by 1.5 to determine the number of Undead HD you effect." So now you are trading Turn Damage 2:1 for improving Turning Checks 18th: Quicken Turning (CDiv p84) "You may make a Turn or Rebuke Undead attempt as Free Action. You may only make an attempt once per round." Now you can turn and buff in the same round. Of course you've used all your feats til epic levels. Disciple of the Sun (CDiv p80) "If you spend two of your daily uses of ‘Turn Undead’ instead of one, the Undead you turn are Destroyed." could be useful for tougher undead that you turn so that you blow them away instead of having to chase them down. Now I got to make a Cloistered undead killing machine that doesn't wield a weapon. :D [/QUOTE]
