I think you were basically right (apart from the fourth attack, that is), but is it forbidden to use your staff two-handed with a flurry?

Agile Shield Fighter does not synergize with the Two-Weapon Fighting tree, as far as I know. Thus, if you ever want to make more than one bash/round, you shouldn't take this. It's basically a one-feat crutch for characters that have a Dex that won't allow for TWF & OTWF.

Archons: DR/evil Eladrins: DR/evil and cold iron Guardinals: DR/evil and silver Angels: Depending on type, like the solar's DR/evil and epic

Not necessarily, Mike. You should definitely get that 3rd level of Swashbuckler to get that crunchy Int bonus to damage. Afterwards, grab a few levels of rogue (4?) an proceed with swashbuckler & the Daring Outlaw feat (adds rogue and swashbuckler levels for Sneak Attack and Grace/Dodge)...

No he can't. If you combine Flurry/Greater Flurry with Two-Weapon Fighting, you'll only get the bonus attack(s) for Flurry once. Thus, you'd attack at +1/+1 and -3, very, very bad indeed. Why do you think he decreases damage output on a flurry (1d6+4 vs. 1d6+5 normal) ? Apart from that, just...

Oversized Two-Weapon Fighting to reduce your rediculous TWF penalty to -2. I personally wouldn't invest in double Weapon Specialization. Your feats are already taken care for until fighter 8 - better to go for Weapon Specialization (flail) and Melee Weapon Mastery (piercing) - will give you +2...

As far as I know, you can use PrC progressions as well. Many Mystic Theurges around that use Ur-Priest spell progression and the likes...

It's the same reason Arcane Archer does not totally and irrevocably suck. You can have a +1 holy, keen, mage bane, wounding, enfeebling, shocking burst bow and still fire arrows with a +5 enhancement pre-epic.

Note that it does not only delay your SA acquisition but also the effective level. Thus, a 12th level rogue can SA a fighter 4/barbarian 8 when flanking him, while a rogue 9/UcT 3 can't. Also, you can now be Sneak Attacked yourself by a rogue only three levels higher. It is not a big...

Arcane Archer is only viable if you are an elf or half elf, and it calls for an arcane spellcaster class. Cragtop Archer is weak. (how many encounters did you play that took place over half a mile of open terrain?) Order of the Bow Initiate is crap if ever there has been crap. The close-combat...

As far as I can see, Frank got in the most sensible answer as of yet: Once upon a time, when the D&D designers decided on basic mechanics of the game, they realized that the 3rd edition incarnation of the thief (named rogue nowadays) would probably grow into something a bit too realiable in...

What about Zenythri? Planetouched, of course, so maybe you won't consider them a race in their own right...

Too bad it doesn't work while mounted.

Shivering Touch spell. 3rd level. Necromancy touch spell (Frostburn). 3d6 Dexterity damage for 1 round/level. No save. No lower limit. Thus, you can effectively paralyze the FB with one casting & a lucky roll or nigh dead-sure with two castings. Normally, if there are two wizards in a party...

2 is correct, plain and simple. No room for interpretations.

Too bad it only works when within 30 ft. of the target. (60 ft. for OotBI 10) It has some merrit when attacking creatures with DR you can't pierce with the material/alignment of your arrows and once you're low on arrows (wich is an aspect underrated by D&D - most people run around with hundreds...

Jason, please note: As noted, it's nightscale, not spidersilk. Sorry!

Not at all. That's surely the player's aim - Sneak Manyshot to work with Ranged Precision past the DM and take Greater Manyshot later on, for up to 20d8 bonus damage/round.

Spidersilk armor. Don't know the exact source (Underdark or Races of Stone, possibly, but it's WotC legal.) 10 max. Dex, +2 to AC, 5 (?) lbs. - it's basically the non-enhanced item of the spidersilk shirt Drizzt took from Ad'non in The Lone Drow. EDIT: Sorry, it's Nightscale from Underdark.

Fighter/Sorcerer. Take the "Armored Mage" alternative class feature from CM, take Battle Caster & Medium Armor Prof. feats (to cast in mithral full plate without ASFC) and go to town. Two levels of Paladin could take care for the Armor Proficiency and offer Divine Grace for your Sorcerer's...
