For what it's worth, here's the text for the erratas for both the Frenzied Berserker and Leap Attack: So Leap Attack with a two-handed weapon is 1 to 4 ratio. Now just don't ask how those two interact together. :p

If you're willing to wait until closer to 10th level for FB you can take Endurance and Steadfast Determination from PHB2 to switch Con for Wis for Will saves and re-roll Fort saves. Human Cloistered Cleric (UA) 1 / Fighter 2/ Barb 7 / Frenzy 10 is pretty much completely party safe and is...

1 Level of Cleric with Pride and Luck means you are pretty safe. Re-roll any 1's from Pride, and Re-reroll and die from Luck. You've got to roll 3 1's in a row to attack your party. Then you still get a chance next round where you again get at least two rolls for your Will (assuming you've...

I wouldn't downplay the spell with "just" here. A wand of Extended Sniper's Shot gives you a pretty good chance to sneak attack snipe from hundreds of feet away with a pretty high chance of not being spotted every other round. The round you lose can also be used to change your position in case...

You might look into one or more of the variant class rules in Unearthed Arcana for Paladin, Ranger, or Druid to go along with the Halfling Outrider. The setting sounds like the Urban Ranger might work flavorwise. Here are some links to the descriptions of some of the variants at the online...

Yer gonna need a Quicken-like effect in there, or an extra standard action such as from that Belt o' Battle thing from MIC, or Choker form or something.

Do class abilities like the Bardic Knowledge or Lore affect regular skill checks for Knowledge? Would Bards or Cloistered Clerics get bonuses to their Knowledge checks? If so, where is this indicated? Thanks in advance.

There's also a Paladin spell that makes you immune to Daze. 4th level, Favor of the Martyr in Spell Compendium. Hmm... this makes me want to make a Prestige Paladin with Spell domain. :p

Possibly combining Wizard and Druid would be Arcane Hierophant from Races of the Wild. Advances pretty much all Druid abilities as well as Arcane caster/familiar progression. Master of Many Forms, from a Druid or Wildshaping Ranger (Unearthed Arcana) isn't such a good option, in my opinion...

If you're only dipping Monk to get Wis to AC, then the Ninja out of Complete Adventurer does the same thing and has no alignment restrictions. I think there's a class out of Tome of Battle that has it too, although I think you have to take 2 levels. Edit: and isn't there a crazy template...

Actually, doesn't it specify "you channel arcane energy into a melee weapon, your unarmed strike, or natural weapons?" That seems to indicate all natural weapons, or at least more than one. Even if it was limited, it's a free action to use, so you can choose to burn a ton of slots by infusing...

Fatespinner from Complete Arcane can also boost save DCs (as well as lower enemy saves and force re-rolls.)

That's somewhat debatable, Sejs, since the example character in the book is shown to have Wildshaping without having taken 5 levels of Druid to enter the class. Edit: Oh, and if the example character (who, oddly, doesn't really qualify for AH) isn't sufficient evidence, the actual description...

With a Minor Bloodline if you never see 12th level play, then you get something for nothing.

If you don't want to burn a feat (and Turn Attempts) the Player's Handbook 2 has a Cleric variant that gives Spontaneous Domain Casting.

It's [Sonic] so Silence effects will stop it. Its range is also short at 40', so keeping distance helps. Greater Spell Immunity can also help.

Well, bloodline levels do increase spell caster level and level derived class abilities like turning or domain powers, so they tend to be better for casters than LA or racial HD. I don't have Tome of Battle but have heard Bloodlines do some funky things to initiator levels. They can also be...

Skill Knowledge from Unearthed Arcana allows you to select a skill to permanently be on your class list. Or it can turn two current class skills permanent.

Another trick for the penny pinching wizard is a 2 level dip into Geometer from Complete Arcane in conjunction with Boccob's Blessed Book. It's Book of Geometry ability makes every spell inscribed into your spellbook only take up 1 page. With Boccob's book that only costs you the 24 hours per...

Off the top of my head, feat-wise there are the Apprentice feats from DMG 2. One of them gets you permanent Perform as a class skill. The Skill Knowledge feat from Unearthed Arcana can allow you one permanent class skill of your choice (or make two existing class skills permanent class...
