Zumar takes a look around the boat, looking nervously at the thin wood between him and the ocean. "You sure this thing will hold up? I've seen boards thicker than this hull snap in half before."

Jalban spits out a gnomish curse under his breath as the spider skitters away from his attack. He then lifts the hammer and brings it down for another attack.

Wow, that's a lot of work. I just bend it back into shape and it usually stays there.

Hmm...Touch of Idiocy as an anti-trip monkey tactic? Interesting.

The Miniatures Handbook has a PrC called the Bonded Summoner who gets an elemental companion that follows him around and grows stronger as he gains levels.

[/i] Probably all the splatbooks in 2nd edition that tried to give out huge mechanical bonuses balanced by reaction penalties towards sheepherders.

There's been some argument back on forth on what the right way to handle tripping is. On the one hand, it seems like you should be able to take your AoO to trip your opponent again when he tries to rise from prone. This makes trip pretty powerful, since you can essentially keep him on the...

I think it's pretty balanced. Damage is just damage, after all, and having 8 ways to damage an enemy isn't all that more overpowered than having a couple ways. Not only will the warmage never be able to learn useful spells like mage armor, haste, or invisibility, he can't even use them off...

He knows all the warmage spells and casts them spontaneously. He'll end up knowing more spells than a sorceror, but is pretty much only limited to dealing damage.

Flavor-wise, I'd go with a druid or a cleric with the Animal and Scalykind domains. Munchkinwise, ECL rases pretty much suck for casters, so I'd probably go with the ranger or monk ideas.

Jalban swirls his hoooked hammer about his body and leaps towards the nearest spider, bringing the hammer end down in a powerful two-handed smash. OOC: When it's my turn, of course. :) Since I don't have TWF yet, I'll just use the hammer end as a two-handed weapon until further notice.

I haven't picked up the halfling book yet, but I seem to recall a similar class in the gnome book. I think a class that could, say, create meals that act like potions could be interesting. Not necessarily something I'd want to play, but it has its niche.

Zumar nods approvingly. "Aye, the lass seems t' have some sort o' plan up her sleeve. It just might be crazy enough t' work."

They still seem overpowered to me, personally. The domain powers they're losing really aren't all that impressive, in the long run. They get automatic proficiency and focus with the diety's favored weapon, which is equivalent to the war domain's power - plus weapon specialization at 12th, which...

I've seen exactly one person turn up his nose to this book so far. I loved the BoVD, and it looks like this book will be quite good too.

Says who? I would think that paladins more than anyone else would have a vested interest in helping better people's lives.

What's wrong with what he described?

:rolleyes: I'm glad after six months of worrying about 3.5 and then another 3 months of complaining about it, it's finally time to reflect on disappointment.

Doesn't seem to be working for me.

He who gets the last word is truly master of his own destiny.
