I am talking about those who have defensive throw and/or elusive target. Both of those allow extra attacks on foes who miss you, but that's only against the foe you designate as being your dodge buddy. So this would be the one designee. I want to know if there is ever a way they can exploit...

Hi all - I have been looking around and I think the answer to this question is "no," but it can't hurt to ask in case someone has seen this ability somewhere I might have missed. Is there a feat or class ability somewhere in any of the 3.x books or Dragons, etc. that allows a PC to dodge more...

Of course you get them. Otherwise it kinda defeats the purpose of the pclass. If you had to find those spells on your own, you'd either have to be very lucky or very rich. -A

This definitely ranks up there in the useful category. Whoever said you have to use KS all the time? :D All I know is my LG monk6/tattooed monk 3 took this feat chain with defensive throw and is having all sorts of fun. Take the chameleon and crab tattoos and you have DR for every hit and...

Or take a level(s) in shadow adept - requires shadow weave magic. It's tougher to ID spells this way, to say nothing of the nice penetration bonuses you can get. -A

Ok, I know this feat is not a favorite out there. I am making a wizard that specializes in draining spells and illusions, and some of the spells are range: close. Right now he has just gained wizard 5 and I will be taking shadow adept in the near future, shadowcrafter eventually, and MAYBE...

I've always said since they nerfed fly in 3.5 that the PS is the new wizard spell for overland travel. now for some skill ranks in ride . . .. -A

Howdy - The spectral hand spell lists it as incorporeal. Does this mean it can make touch spells affect incorporeal creatures as well as corporeal ones? Thanks, -A

Well, yeah, in a perfect world I would agree. But in many campaigns one cannot have three high stats. Dex and Wis are more important than STR for a monk IMO, at least because I always choose defense over offense. However, my monk is a Living Greyhawk PC and we do point-buy stats. Can't get...

I agree, your DM is softballing if combats are that easy all the time. Heck, I have a 9th level monk in the Living Greyhawk campaign (i.e. don't get to use all the books) and she's doing better than that. Ask for a rebuild maybe? 5 monk/5 tattooed monk and take (in order) Chameleon (alter...

You're right - that IS very nice. Only this PC is human. Maybe if he gets killed. :D Thanks, -A

I was kidding about people not playing wizards. I know they are still loads of fun and new discoveries are around every corner. I'll be a little more specific with this PC and maybe it will help: I play a wizard level 4, currently in a FR campaign. (Silverymoon area) I have access to any book...

I use them. A lot. Cantrips are wonderful things. It just seems to me that a wizard with a 22 INT should have a bonus spell (or spells) of 0-level. You can get bonus spells of any level except 0. Doesn't make sense to me. -A

Anyone ever figure out: 1) Why wizards/sorcerors never get bonus cantrips. (or ANY spellcasters getting more than 4 0-lvl spells per day) You'd think they'd get 27 of 'em at higher levels. 2) How to get more of them short of "extra slot" feat? Thanks, -A

Doesn't anyone play wizards anymore? What, just 'cause they nerfed haste and disintigrate? :whistles: -A
