It works fairly well till about level 8.

Well the player in question is looking for a monkish guy who can do this, kind of like ryu or ken or what not from street fighter. I think he said his inspiration is some guy from final fight or something (guy in a red cap, name escapes me).

Is there any way to get a "ki blast" type ability other than the feat of the same name in the players hand book 2? I have a player who seems to be pretty set on the idea. He says he vaguely remembers a prestige class with a similar ability but I can't recall any myself. Anyone have any idea what...

I like the idea of a tribal changeling barbarian warshaper frenzied berzerker, though I think It would be a little much power wise. The flavor writes itself though.

I'd limit it to 25,000 gp myself. I don't like the idea of players putting more exp into a scroll, and I also wouldn't want to give the players some great magic item for the price of a scroll of wish.

Does hardness apply to all energy types?

Does anyone use any audio aids in there games? I've used visual aids (pictures of ruins, people, or other places) to good effect in the past, and now I'm curious to the use of audio aids to set the mood. I'm looking to use some basic stuff really, maybe tavern sounds (Chatter, music etc), or...

I feel all alone. I've loved the spiked chain as a thematic weapon since I saw it. I guess it's just easy for my to imagine someone twirling like crazy tearing apart anything that comes close. I don't think I've ever had anyone other than my NPC's use one though.

Has anyone ran a crusader in a game, or had a player run one? I'm curious to how they compare to other classes, including the other Tome of Battle classes. One of my PC's is debating trashing his cleric and starting a crusader and I'm just looking for opinions. I don't really see them as over or...

I think it looks really good on paper but I feel it would be slightly less awesome, though still good in gameplay. Its main benefit would be for monks to be able to take an extra attack when moving around, and it adds a little bit more to the spring attack chain of feats. You could the extra...

It loses 2 spell levels, 1 at first and 1 at fifth. The draconic senses ability really isn't worth much, even if you have a bunch of draconic feats. The breath weapon is neat. All in and all I think it's fairly solid at losing 2 caster levels. It'd be a reasonable debate on whether to lose the...

I'm going to say no to power attack, assuming he took EWP in order to wield the bastard sword one handed. Using power attack a 1-1 ratio isn't really worth it. Now, if he was going to wield a big two hander you can't really go wrong with power attack and cleave.

Besides the mechanics I have to warn you to watch how often you start playing the sunder card. I find that it's one of the things that can ruin players overall fun pretty quickly. Not that there is anything wrong with the occasional destruction of property, IME its just not good to let it get...

I'm not sure if you are using a variant half celestial or not, the one in the SRD / Monster Manual always has wings. And I will second the Fist of Raziel.

What is so bad about the thought bottle? I can't remember all of it's abilities but didn't it allow you to negate level loss associated with death? I seem to remember the cost being kind of prohibited until higher level.

I like the splat books both as a DM and as a player. After a while just running core starts to feel like old hat, and the same goes for running core only characters. Don't get me wrong there is nothing wrong with just running core, I just like to have broader options.

Craft contingent spell from Complete Arcane allows you to have multiple contingencies in effect on your person at one time at the cost of some gold and experience at a rate a 100 gold x caster level x spell level. You are limited to a number of contingencies on your person equal to your caster...

:D :p :lol: That was pretty good.

I use the term gish on these and other message boards, but I don't think I've ever heard it mentioned or mentioned it away from the community. Well, unless the person I was talking to also visited the boards.

I just dropped it in light of the abjurant champion's similar ability, though arcane strike is clearly better when it comes to offensive power. You could place it right up there instead of chain spell pretty easily, or even sooner.
