If you are going to prevent more attacks from the feat I see no problem with it. +1 to hit from an epic feat with the addition that it can allow you entry to an epic prestige class quicker doesn't seem very tough stuff compared to some of the other epic feats. Calling it an inherent bonus to BAB...

For the Gypsy Mage, if you went the Bard route I'd look at the Lyric Thaumaturge from Complete Mage. It would add some additional powers to your spell casting and lets you grab some sorcerer/wizard spells. Edit: And if you want to go rogue/sorcerer how's Unseen Seer, also from Complete Mage...

Ah, and there I was about to recommend the Tome of Battle to you. Can you use Oriental Adventures perhaps? I remember the Blade Dancer prestige class from that book having a very C.T.H.D type feel to it. It had a very intense run speed and I think around +20 to jump/tumble/balance which, in...

Well, that is certainly nice. I'm fond of Celerity and Travel myself. 50foot base move rate charging barbarian anyone? War and strength of course seem appropriate for the concept.

It's no problem Zan. They are listed alongside the maneuvers starting on page 48. Directly after the the bold text it will either say Strike, Boost, Counter or Stance. For more information just page through to that disciplines section and read the full blurb of course.

Table 3-1 on page 39 tells what the highest level maneuver you can learn is. It is based off of your initiator level. Mountain Tombstone Strike is weird in that it has no maneuver prerequisites but it would still be held to requiring a initiator level of 17+ as per the chart. Edit: Stances are...

I was going with the assumption that you were a monk, and then looking to multiclass into swordsage in order to gain entry into the prestige class. Yes, if you were a straight sword sage you would have to be a 3rd level sword sage to gain access to 2nd level maneuvers. However, if you have 4...

Extra Rage will be helpful of course since you'll probably just want to go with cleric the rest of the way to maximize your casting potential. Extend Spell is a good choice and persistent is a powerful choice late in the game. As a Dwarf you are hurting on feats though. I'd probably take extra...

You basically need 1 second level maneuver from either shadowhand or Setting sun, and then 1 first level manuever from both. The only thing that prevents you from picking up higher level manuevers in a discipline is the number of prerequisites a maneuver has. Second level maneuvers generally...

I'm torn between saying its good where it is or bumping it up one. It's a defensive spell that doesn't grant SR, doesn't raise armor class, and doesn't provide a boost to saves. It just doesn't jump up and scream PICK ME for me. I'm definitely not saying immunity to SA, Crits, Poison, and...

I'm inclined to say that yes, he gets the Psychic Strike damage on every attack. Psychic Strike imbues the mind blade. The Mind Blade can only deal out the damage once before being discharged, however bladewind is pretty specific in creating numerous identical copies so I'd go ahead and let him...

Maneuvers and stances belong to one of nine disciplines. Each discipline has a key concept, weapons associated with it, and a skill associated with it. I tend to think of the guys from ToB as a kind of "spellcaster" as far as learning the system goes. Readied maneuvers are equivalent to prepared...

What if the spell grants you a bonus? For instance, False Life.

Well, I was considering simply preparing the spell that way, but then Harm pointed out... Ahh, yes I thought I saw that somewhere. Thank you. O, I can definitely see the abuse, at least in certain situations. Namely with effects that improved metamagic by reducing the metamagic's cost. In a...

As above, can you have a Empowered Empowered Fireball? If you can, how would that math work? I'd assume 1.5+1.5 = Spell Damage x2, as per the D&D multiplying rules.

What happens when you share a spell that can be discharged with your familiar? For instance, if you share protection from energy, which discharges when it receives X damage. Is the spell treated as two separate spells for dispelling and keeping track of how much remains before the spell is...

I'm not familiar these flaws, which Dragon are they from?

Ah, sorry to hear that. DM's can be wankers. If you think you might be stuck with a crappy bow for a while, maybe you should think about multiclassing into scout or rogue for skirmish and sneak attack respectively.

Dump some skill points into craft: Bowmaking (or whatever would be appropriate) and make your own?

I think it's fairly strong myself. It inflicts (1d6+the targets charisma mod) dexterity damage with 2d6 secondary dexterity damage to anything evil you touch. The save DC is only 14 but as Deset mentioned, things will fail on 1's anyhow. I feel that the whole holy poison ravage thing is a bit...
