So we've discussed the spells at length, what about feats? Anyone got brilliant ideas?

I think the "Happens on a crit" abilities are worthless unless you are optimizing your crit. Obviously rapiers and scimitars which are keen get way more mileage out of on crit abilities.

I didnt really take anything from domains anyway, mostly from: Paladin(Lesser Restoration), Ranger(Delay poison) Cleric(Too many to list), Druid(See Cleric), Shugenja(See Cleric). I think thats about all I took, on just those lists alone there is some tasty stuff.

But thats no problem, because you learn 2-4 spells per level, so anything bizarre, or out of the way, you can just snag at level up, and then go find "Cure Serious" scrolls. ;)

And like a cruel cruel man, Corsair doesnt even mention the online campaigns he's in.

Aeolius is still seeking players, he's a touch busy right now with adopting a baby, but he's around on irc all the time. I'm playing secretary as well as a character, I think =P

I like the flexibility, spell wise, of the archivist, but better than a Cleric? Thats a massive stretch. Poor bab, no turn undead, no domains, no martial weapons, no shields, no heavy armor? thats a lot of hits compared to a cleric. I love the flavor of Dark Knowledge, for the Daniel Jackson...

Feats for a Charismatic *Fighter* do not help, because charismatic fighters have 1-3 skill points and no skills to spend them on, unless you are in a social setting with only horses(ride) and Goats(Handle Animal) since thats all the skills you get beyond jump and climb. Swashbucklers are so...

Scarlet Corsair gets Imp Feint at level 1, Swashbuckler gets Weapon Finesse at level 1, Dread Pirate gets TWF at level 1...

Those are great lists. Great. Mirror Image? Scorching Ray? Beautiful.

This game is a Stargate SG-1 game, set in fantasy with teleport portals, basically, so I'm making the Daniel Jackson character. Its a pretty cool setup, really.

Or perhaps I misremembered Boccob's cost, and thats a fantasy which aint happening. lol

YES. Bad healer. I picked up some more cool stuff from Relics and Rituals and RR2, I'm gonna end up paying most of my level 6 wealth for scribing costs. I took, tentatively, Spontaneous Healer, (+4 wis bonus), Eschew Materials, Craft Wondrous Item. I think for magic items, I am gonna get...

I love delay poison, it means I can not bother with neutralize until like...later =P

Lesser Restoration as level 1, and Delay Poison as level 1 were 2 more of my favorite finds. =) Shugenja has an exciting divine spell list, I can say for sure. I am not sure I want to be a "Draconic Archivist" since its for Scarred Lands, and I dont think Dragons have been around for a...

Well, today I'd like to talk about Archivists. Specifically, interesting feats for Archivists, and, interesting SPELLS for Archivists. I have Spontaneous Healer pencilled in so far, and some interesting spells, but I am interested to see if anyone else has any interesting ideas also. Lay em on me!

Actual gameplay evidence of mine, anecdotal as it is, shows that warblades, swordsages and crusaders do not overwhelm gameplay. Most of this evidence involves me actually playing said characters, and I might get twinky, but not outrageously so, so I am just not sure how you came up with these...

Warblades are too good against vanilla fighters, in my opinion. Of course, were I to start a game tomorrow, I would not have both the Fighter and the Warblade base class to choose from. I'd sub in Crusaders for Paladins, Warblades for Fighters, and I'd add Swordsages straight up. I like...

I was posting while your reply went up, as you are aware, you type quite fast. ;) I have read several previous Levistus guy threads, so I am basing it not just on this thread, but several. I have read about the White Raven Warblade also, but I recall you previously stating that the restriction...

There are a few ToB maneuvers that need Errata and need it fast. The Tiger Claw stun or die maneuver is one(although its ridiculously high level) and the White Raven maneuvers that give tons of extra actions to everyone are in need of balancing. That does not make the whole book unbalanced, nor...
