[QUOTE="radha2g, post: 5332996, member: 95607"] I just started D&D, this is actually my fist campaign hehe I think most answer most likely will be Brn 20 or fighter2/barbarian18 but just want to make sure and also learn about feats for the classes. my first character ever... ------------------------------- Dwarven barbarian Lv 2 Str 16 Dex 14 Con 16 (14+2) Int 10 Wis 12 Cha 6 (8-2) Feat: Extra Rage ------------------------------- as for equipment... well, i was given a dwarven waraxe, studded leather, and a buckler. have about 80g currently ---------------- now for the Rules... Feats, skill and any sort of power from any Book, i think No prestige class, as far as i know... If anything only 1 or 2 prestige class Im not a 100% sure about this, but anyway... i was looking at some very cool builds like a barabarian/beast warrior/warshaper/fist of the forest however... im not sure if such a thing is good for a first time player. (do post any build if u want to, I might learn something out of it, but if I dont state this I would never see a Core class build) ------------------ I had a very quick talk with the DM and what i understood is that he prefers core classes. maybe i could take an altered class like the rogue who takes feats instead of sneak attack (PH II), but im a little afraid of the XP penalty, especially cuz my lvl is already lower than the other guys (maybe taking the feat that gives another favored class would help if a could spare feats...) I could also try to talk with the DM to let me take a 1 or 2 lvl dip without XP penalty (x lvl dip means to take very few lvl in some class to gain some advantage right?) but i dont think thats gonna work. In our last session I obtained lv3, but it was a rushed moment and some of the guys were leaving... im not even sure what feat should i get. However i may stay barbarian on lv3 fo just 1 reason... I was rushed I rolled the dice and got 9 HP out of d12 from the dice. Im afraid to choose another class and roll a very low dice :( Im new to this, so may had made some mistakes. After researching a bit i feel some things should be a slightly diff, but i dont want to ask the DM to make changes. I mean, whats done is done, you just have to make the best of what you got, and learn from each mistake. Anyway, I might make diff char if I die, but I hope i last longer. At least i wont die like the last barbarian they had... cuz he couldnt read and took a very bad shortcut... dont know the details, but they make it sound very funny :P [/QUOTE]
