Make a spreadsheet with your stats in various wild-shaped forms. It will save a ton of time... -Stuart

If you can get your foes in a line, then you can have an effect on them all. It won't increase your damage output on any given target, but it will increase your damage output dramatically. So... how do you get your foes lined up conveniently? - personal mobility... if you can move around...

Why would every divine caster choose Charisma? Wisdom is a useful ability for Will saves and a number of skills... -Stuart

DR doesn't negate touch attacks. DR still applies to any weapon damage delivered through a touch attack, though. I mean, DR doesn't negate melee attacks, either... -Stuart

I'd go for Dread Necromancer because I prefer to play spontaneous spellcasters, but I suspect a Wizard could be more effective. -Stuart

Hmmm... if he's looking for a wild-shaping monk, I'd mix in a few levels each of Nature's Warrior and Warshaper. He might also consider dipping into Druidic Avenger (Unearthed Arcana variant) for rage instead of taking 5 levels of Druid, then taking Bear Warrior and Warshaper. Some levels in...

A fun option could be: Swashbuckler 3/Beguiler 6/Eldritch Knight X (mix in Abjurant Champion, if you can qualify with Beguiler - I can't find my Complete Mage at the moment). Feats: Practiced Spellcaster, Arcane Strike, Combat Expertise, Improved Feint Insightful strike. Feint in combat as a...

Do you allow the Metamagic Specialist variant Sorcerer? ...or any Sorcerer capable of using Quicken Spell? -Stuart

In my blog, I wrote a 2-part quasi-review of Complete Scoundrel, focusing upon what I found useful in it: Part 1 Part 2 BoED is fairly specific in terms of the character-types that will benefit from it. My initial reaction is that if the PCs fit that character-type, then BoED is for you. -Stuart

If you use the Spell Compendium, Druid spellcasting becomes truly awesome. They excel at self-buffing (Bite of the Werewhatever + wildshape? Yes.) and have a number of long term, multipurpose buffs. Essence of the Raptor is a favorite. (Also, look at the Heart of (element) spells from Complete...

I actually meant to make the prerequisite Weapon Specialization, rather than Weapon Focus... which would limit it to characters with levels in Fighter (or Warblade, Favored Soul, or a few other things, I guess). -Stuart

How about this, instead: Practiced Warrior [General] Prerequisites Proficiency with martial weapons, base attack bonus +1, Weapon Focus. Benefit Your base attack bonus increases by one, but cannot exceed your hit dice. Special You can gain this feat multiple times. Its effects stack. A...

Certainly not what you were thinking of, but I immediately thought of a bit of art by my roommate: http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/57990941/ -Stuart

Arcane Strike. -Stuart

A ghost? -Stuart

A Ghost Bard could be really nasty, actually. Fascinate makes a great precursor to an attack by a partner or summoned creature. -Stuart

From my blog, a couple weeks ago: http://neitherworldstories.blogspot.com/2007/06/separated-at-birth.html -Stuart

Looking at the text of "Transmuting Weapon" it doesn't say that the weapon physically changes into another sort of weapon. Your transmuting greatsword would be a greatsword that bypaseed bludgeoning and good DR. -Stuart

Look to Complete Scoundrel. Actually, check out the Master of Masks PrC in there. You might like it. -Stuart

Errr... yeah. I guess it can. The Warblade I am playing only has a BAB of 5 at the moment, so this hasn't been an issue for me. -Stuart
