    Urgent!! 2 feats for warweaver

    Hi. I realise i've already posted a similar topic, but i could really do with a hand picking two final feats for my character as i'm a bit stumped and amrapidly running out of time (will be playing tomorrow). The character will be a wixard 5/warweaver 2 (with xp halfway to 8th lvl). What i have...

    Reserve feats from the complete mage

    Ok, this might have been discussed already, but how many people actually use them, which ones do people like best, and at what level do you tend to take them? I ask this because i'm trying to decide on a feat for a 5th level wizard and like some of the reserve ray like spells, but am concerned...

    Most attacks per round

    Hydra dervish with that interpretation of how many attacks of opportunity it can make in a round, surrounded by players under a confusion spell :eek:

    Hobogobo archer feats - caravan spoilers!

    All you need is point blank shot so you've already qualified. Got mixed up earlier as obviously you wouldn't apply the 3d6 twice if you readied and manyshot later on (bonus dice apply to one of shots only), but that's still 2 shots at an effective -2 to hit (they're charging). Also figured the...

    Hobogobo archer feats - caravan spoilers!

    Ready shot from heroes of battle can be useful if you know you're about to be charged. Ready an action to shoot a charging foe when he's within 15ft and you deal +3d6 damage. A bundle of laughs when combined with manyshot later.

    Help with wizard5/war weaver2

    There's so many items in the MIC to choose from that i was really spoilt for choice. I also really liked a set of bracers that for 2000gp which let you entangle creatures you damage with a spell for d4 rnds if you opt to deal 1/2 dam. This would be a really good use for magic missile. There's...

    Help with wizard5/war weaver2

    My bad. Is pgf players guide to faerun? If so, none of the players have access to this book so i probably wont be able to use that feat, though it does sound pretty good. Items i was looking at were: Headband of intellect +2 (4000gp) Cloak of resistance +1 (1000gp) Rod of meta: extend (3000gp)...

    Help with wizard5/war weaver2

    Thanks for the feedback. My stats were rolled, and i had a con of 15 before elven adjustment applied. My stats looked like 16, 16, 15, 13, 12, 10, so i could have used a 16 for con instead of dex i guess. I've still got the stat increase at 4 to assign, though i was tempted to boost my int even...

    Help with wizard5/war weaver2

    Last week the regular group i play with suffered tpk, mostly due to poor party composition. So we all rolled our stats and agreed to create a working mercenary group. We'll all be starting at lvl 7 (half way to level eight so will have 3500XP to play with). The rest of the group will consist of...

    Shuriken-draw like ammunition?

    Ok, so i'm slightly unclear as to what type of action drawing shurikens is, the rules say something along the lines of: "When using a bow, a character can draw ammunition as a free action; crossbows and slings require an action for reloading. Generally speaking, ammunition that hits its target...

    About initiative

    Weighing in a bit late here, and my opinion might not count for much, but i'd tend to agree with Karins Dad. If the fighter wanted to kick the door in before combat began, i'd be giving all the monsters on the other side a spot and listen check (unless for some reason the situation didn't allow...

    The Ubiquitous 5' Step

    I liked Ki Ryn's explanation for why a 5ft step does make sense. It's maybe a little forced, but is still the best explanation for 5ft steps i've seen about (for creature that occupy at least a 5ft square anyway). Also, i don't want to be a constant nay-sayer, but a lot of people here are...

    The Ubiquitous 5' Step

    Not sure about about the CR adjustment, but i'd be very careful about this ruling. If you as a DM can do this, then a player's enlarged scout might start asking why he cant do it also (and then take his full attack action with multiple skirmish damage and AC added in). Although the the base 5'...

    Duel Wielding HELP!

    High threat range weapons always work nicely with dual wielders, as the large number of attacks you dish out make the probability of at least one crit in a full attack fairly high, especially if you have the improved crit feat or keen weapons. Adding on either the wpn.spec/focus feat tree or the...

    HP: how many per level?

    In the gaming groups i'm in, we tend to roll for hit points, rolling once then choosing to keep or reroll once more and keeping this new roll. Seems to work ok for us.

    Help with a Scout Build

    One option (which i'm currently trying myself) is to go for a melee scout/swashbuckler leading into dervisher. I decided to create a scout with quite a high intelligence as our party lacked on any other skills monkey, entering into the game at level 7/8. Starting in scout, i then levelled in...

    Sword and board paladin and feats

    Thanks for the replies. I was fairly keen on taking shield ward anyway as i thought it would be quite useful, but wanted to hear from people who'd tried it already. Agile shield fighter is the feat that allows you one extra attack when using your shield, so had got that covered. I didn't know...

    Sword and board paladin and feats

    Hi, i'm about to start a new character and i'd appreciate some input. My plan is to start with a single level in fighter and then multiclass into paladin (with no particular prestige class in sight). My stats (as i've currently ordered them) are: Human Str 15 Dex 10 Con 12 Int 10 Wis 13 Cha 14...

    Agile Shield Fighter with TWF

    If you've got the dex to go down the t.w.fighting route anyway, you may as well take oversized two weapon fighting instead of agile shield fighter if you want to use a large shield, as Sadrik has suggested. With imp. shield bash, two weapon fighting, and oversized two weapon fighting, you'll be...
