1) If you have a melee combatant to cast it on, bull's strength is almost always useful in any combat. Ray of enfeeblement can easily prove to be relatively useless in combat if you're not facing a small number of melee combatants. 2) Bull's strength helps for the entire encounter, and...

I thought Hurgun said that the imbalance was caused by the ascension of Fallon to divinity as the Goddess of Healing.

I expect that was just confusion with the movie "Legend".

So, what's it about?

I'm currently in the Die Vecna Die! camp, but Pelor's next on my list for the reason you give. Sun god of sunny sungodness? *yawn*

For combat purposes, you can't go wrong with a few potions of displacement. Potions of protection from evil or shield of faith will provide some more extra AC and are dirt cheap. And if you're into the rogue-style sneaking around, you'll want some potions of pass without trace.

Good call, and one I'll keep in mind in upcoming rounds. I personally voted against Pelor. Sun gods are soooo boring. :D

That's actually pretty easy. Instead of preparing the stats yourself, let the players roll the stats for the stat draft, then pick stats as per the draft rules.

So, fighter-types should completely redesign their builds solely to defend against a single spell? That's a classic sign of brokenness.

Uh... shouldn't you be telling us something about the world first? :confused:

No. And by that, I don't mean that it's true and I haven't noticed it, but that in my experience, I have noticed that it is not true. Thanks.

Hey, if Illusionists get a death spell, then giving one to Diviners isn't much of a stretch. :D

If the thief gets to take 20 on her roll to pick the lock, doesn't the PC in the room get to take 20 on the Listen check? :D

Thanks for the helpful advice, guys! I was hoping for a less decisive set of responses; Hold the Line is a somewhat better fit for my character concept, so it was my first choice. But I'll be playing ths character in a pretty dangerous campaign world, and taking Cleave sounds like a reasonable...

Certainly it's heroic... in the classic Hellenic sense.

The Ranger class is far more "hard-wired" than most prestige classes. I certainly wouldn't use it as a default class for lightly-armed fighter concepts!

I suspect that people just forgot under pressure; I know that I did. I seem to recall a whole lot of "oh god I forgot you needed that, can I change my pick" in both rounds. You just didn't make a fuss until it was too late, you rules-adherer, you. ;)

Agreed. You might want to throw on a couple of levels of pure fighter so that you can play around with the combat-oriented feats.

You're putting too much faith in your algorithms and too little faith in my generosity. If I had taken the 14 Wis in the last round and left you with the 9 Wis, I would have had the 86 point stat set and you would have had the 81. :D

I'm building a 2nd level fighter for an upcoming campaign, and I'm looking for advice on choosing my feats. The campaign includes several cool homebrew feats with Combat Reflexes as a prerequisite, so I'm definitely picking that up; I'm also planning to grab some feats from the Power Attack...
