    Opportunity Attacks irrelevant

    Excellent, thanks for all the replies. I was hoping OA's would happen often enough to justify getting the HBO talent. I'm trying to put together a Beastmaster Ranger who has a bit of an Opportunity Attack focused build...still debating exactly which weapon/build to use but I think it's a tie...

    Double Sword/Khopesh variant?

    Yeah, you can get high crit with a Khopesh, but not until lvl 21...which by that point you should be making mincemeat out of pretty much anything anyways, lol. Thanks for all the suggestions, after some research and a few suggestions in another thread I'm now trying to decide between a Double...

    Opportunity Attacks irrelevant

    Ok, I realize that the frequency that Opportunity Attacks come up is largely up to the DM, and how he moves the NPC's around/which PC's they chase down. But Powers and class feats/features aside(which there seem to be very few), how often would Opportunity Attacks really happen? Would Heavy...

    Generating Opportunity Attacks (BM Ranger)

    Just wanted to ask the veteran Ranger players out there... What options do we have to generate Opportunity Attacks? I'm aware of the Beast Protector feat, but if the GM simply refuses to attack your pet, do we have any other options?

    BM Ranger Multiclass/Hybrid questions

    A couple more questions... Other then Beast Protector feat, are there any other feats/powers/etc that can generate Opportunity Attacks for a Beastmaster Ranger? And so far as the hybrid-Double Weapon idea, I was discussing the explanations of double weapons with a friend, and it does seem...

    BM Ranger Multiclass/Hybrid questions

    As for spending a feat for +1 AC, the feat isn't just for the +1 AC bonus from a defensive Double-Weapon, but for the other benefits a Double-Weapon would provide as well. He's gonna be Human anyways, so will have an 'extra' feat to spare. After a second review I guess the definitions for...

    BM Ranger Multiclass/Hybrid questions

    Well, I'm trying to see what I can do and not be stuck as a 'House-ruled-only' character. If I made such a nasty combination weapon (my characters background is that he's a Warsmith, and makes his own stuff), following the rules in the Errata, wouldn't it be considered a legal weapon? So far as...

    BM Ranger Multiclass/Hybrid questions

    I read through the Errata, and apparently you can have different types of blades on each end of a Double-weapon. Pasted from the Eratta pdf: Wielding a double weapon is like wielding a weapon in each hand. In the table, the first line of the double weapon’s entry describes the end of the weapon...

    BM Ranger Multiclass/Hybrid questions

    Bummer...I suppose it's only natural that such a combo would be removed. So there are no weapons that combine Light/Heavy weapons any longer? IMHO such a combination would be realistically feasible (simply an oversized dagger or undersized sword, really...)...but I can see from a game...

    Double Sword/Khopesh variant?

    Thanks for the suggestion, I wasn't even aware of the Zulaats existence. I googled up 'Zulaat' and found a dnd 4e wiki site that listed a few other weapons that are close to what I'm imagining as well. The Double Scimitar and Zulaat are both very nice looking... My goal was to find a Double...

    BM Ranger Multiclass/Hybrid questions

    First off, I'm unfamiliar with how Hybrid classes work, so could somebody please explain how such a character would differ from the Multi-class concept detailed below? Now I have to admit that I'm new to DnD but am a bit of a power gamer...so feel free to thwack me with my own dice if my...

    Double Sword/Khopesh variant?

    I'm rather new to DnD, so I apologize in advance if my questions seem a bit out of place... Anyways, for a while now, I've wanted to create a Beastmaster Ranger -- possibly a multiclass or hybrid class -- who uses a Double-bladed weapon similar to a Double Sword but that is more similar to a...
