    Duskblade - Arcane Channeling Q's

    I know this is an old thread but it came up when I googled to see if there was an official answer to a similar situation. Here is what I suggested as a player and my DM agreed. 1.) The weapon delivering the spell follows normal crit rules for that weapon. 2.) Spell damage also threatens on a...

    Best Potions not in the DMG

    I'm usually not much of a potion user; however, I just finished a low level 1 shot w/ a tripper build and I came across this little gem in the SC. Fist of Stone: +6 Str. plus slam attack, Dur. 1 min, Sor/Wiz 1. Also check out the potion bladder in DotUnd 25gp among other things lets you drink a...

    Advice on "Arcane Rogue"

    I know Factotum was my 1st choice but my DM said no. My comment about not losing skill points wasn't directed at unseen seer but at taking 4 levels of wizard. One concern about unseen seer though: your CL for all non-divination arcane spells is reduced. Comments? Currently thinking rogue...

    Advice on "Arcane Rogue"

    Thanks for the advice, I'll comment on some of the posts so far to give you a better idea what I'm looking for. I doubt my DM will approve the psychic rogue. I looked at begiuler before making the op but its not quite what I want. The rule I'm going for is more like: thou shalt not lose more...

    Advice on "Arcane Rogue"

    I am starting a new 3.5 game this Sunday we are currently at the "what class does every one want to play?" stage. I want to play an "arcane/rogue". I am currently thinking spellthief 3/wizard 3 then pick up the master spellthief feat and PrC into daggerspell mage. Resources allowed core...

    D&D 3E/3.5 3.5 Gish

    If full caster progression was top priority I'd go: Wizard 6/Ruather 3/Dragonslayer 1/Spellsword 1/Abjurant Champion 5/any other PrC with full progression x but that's not a gish its a caster with average BAB and martial weapon proficiency. It would also be very squishy at low levels when...

    What Rules Sources Do You Allow?

    Most WotC Books but not magazines, on a case-by-case basis. We take turns dm-ing so we all ask ourselves "would i allow this in my game?"

    D&D 3E/3.5 3.5 Gish

    I've seen similar sorcadin builds before and its a classic a reason: casts as an 18th level sorcerer, nice synergy between the sorcerer's cha and the paladin's divine grace and in this case also the sacred exorcist's turn undead. I was going for something more duskblade-esque with more options...

    D&D 3E/3.5 3.5 Gish

    Hey all this is my 1st post. I often search forums for character build ideas but this is the 1st time I've felt the need to post one, so here it is: Duskblade 3/Wizard 3/Spellsword 1/Havoc Mage 5/Abjurant Champion 5/Ruathar 3 Casts as a 15th level wizard; BAB 14; 8+8d8+3d4+5d10+3d6 HP...

    Best 3.x supplements?

    Its been over a decade since I've played a PnP RPG but I'm getting a new PnP D&D 3.x group together. I am looking to spend about $50 on used books. Which Wotc D&D 3.x supplements would you suggest I buy to get the most bang for my buck? Also, if you could mention what is good about each that...
