Where could I find the associated benefits/detriments for the different types? Monster Manual perhaps?

Gracias!

Cool, thanks! Man, prerequisites would be much easier to deal with if there were rules surrounding them!

Just to make sure I have it right: if I'm 5th level and the only prereq that I need to qualify for a PrC is a feat and I take that feat at 6th level, I still can't take the PrC until 7th level. True?

Many PrCs have a final ability that changes their type. What benefits are given from the change? Does it just protect against spells where the target is a humanoid? Or are there other benefits (maybe a template or something) that goes along with it too? Thanks!

By the way, once you have him statted out, could you post him? It's a very unique idea, I'd like to see what feats, etc you settle on!

I'm no expert, but I would say: 1. Yes to Sneak Attack Damage but only the first round (but not to the second because he's aware of you and no longer flat-footed). 2. Yes to both Weap. Focus and Specialization with the extra damage to both rounds (because you're an expert at damaging with...

Awesome, thanks everyone! That's what I thought the rules were but I wasn't positive. I've been thinking of different magic items that my grappling specialist fighter could use creatively (necklace of adaptation, boots of levitation, etc.), and wanted to make sure he could use them.

Hi everybody! I need some help with how using magic items works. When do you know which magic items you can use freely and which you need to make a Use Magic Device check with? The SRD table for the UMD skill makes it look like you only need to use it when you use a wand or scroll and you...

Hi, Does the Reaping Mauler's Devestating Grasp and Sleeper Hold work just once or every time the pin has been maintained (so every three rounds for the Dev. Grasp and every round for the Sleeper Hold)? Thanks!

I was developing a similar character but I only came up with the Loremaster and Lore Delver too. ------- I don't know if they'd work for your concept but some feats to consider are: Obscure Lore (C. Adv.)- +4 bonus to Bardic Know. or Lore checks Trivial Know. (RoS)- Int 13, Gnome: Whenever...

Cool, that's what I was thinking too. Thanks for the input!

Ah, gotcha. That makes more sense and looks better when it's laid out like that. I suppose if I wanted I could take the Braid Dagger without the proficiency and take a -6 to that attack. Although that seems too cheesy. I was thinking of taking the Oversized TWF that you mentioned, although...

The character will most likely start at level 1, I was just toying around with a selection of feats through 20th level. I was just now thinking that perhaps Gr. TWF should be cut from the list because it's extra attack with the -12 probably will never crit. And that's where the swashbuckler...

Hi all, I'm making a swashbuckler and I'm going for lots of attacks and improved critical to take advantage of their Weakening and Wounding Critical abilties. I can either take Imp. TWF (and maybe also Gr. TWF) or I could take Exotic Weapon: Braid Blade and Improved Crit. for it (18-20 crit, as...

I'm not sure how the divine feats that they have are powered, but if they're powered by using up Smites, Turnings/Rebukings or Remove Diseases, they could take the appropriate "Extra..." feat. Extra Smiting (C. War.)- 2 extra Smites per day Extra Turning (PHB)- 3 extra Turnings/Rebukings per...

I think your way of doing things already is the way to go. Whether I'm the GM or a player, as long as the player was a good roleplayer (participates in the sessions, doesn't disrupt the game, died because it was character driven, their death enhanced the story, etc), they shouldn't be penalized...

I'm the same way. Flavorwise that just never worked to me. Thanks for the input!

Hi all, Would taking away the Paladin's Mount and replace it with an Animal Companion like the Ranger or Druid be balanced? If yes, should the Animal Companion follow the Druid's progression or the Ranger's? Instead of being the normal, mounted knight type of Paladin, I thought it would be...

I recently got Arcana Unearthed and it has the Litorians in there with some sort of monstrous class progression. My friend has my book right now, but maybe that would be a good source. (Although if memory serves, they have 3 monstrous levels. So maybe it's not a good fit.)
