I feel compelled to point out that XXX 5 / Chameleon 10 is character level 15 ;)

A level of fighter isn't worth it unless you really, really need a feat. Bards get longswords anyway.

Nono, its just that the final result IS the variable component.

For 1d6+4, the 1d6 isn't the variable, numeric number. The 1d6+4 is. That is, the numeric number is a variable between 5 and 10. It just so happens that there aren't any dice that start numbering at 5 and end at 10, so they just use a d6 and add 4 to it.

Actually, not quite. The rules text (ie. not flavour text) in the 'Benefit:' section of Improved Buckler Defense says "When you attack with a weapon in your off hand, you may still apply your buckler's shield bonus to your Armour Class." In comparison, the buckler description states "You can...

This bit doesn't make sense either; if a human wielding an appropriately sized longspear can attack at 10' but not 5', then when an ogre picks up the same weapon why can he use it to attack at 5' ?

It applies whenever you use a weapon in your offhand. From the language used in the buckler description, this arguably includes two handed weapon use. Check with your DM.

This is just flavour text with no bearing on game mechanics. By the rules, daze immunity lets them act again during their turn. If they didn't want this to be the case, they should have explicitly declared that you can take no actions until the end of your next turn, similar to the way dimension...

Meta magic school focus only works 3 times a day, you seem to be using it 6 times in your example there. Also, altho it doesn't specifically state it as most feats of a similair nature do, I'd be leery of it allowing you to reduce a meta magic cost below 1. (Note: by the raw it also doesn't say...

Even then it fails; mastery gives +2 hit, +2 damage. Focus + Specialisation gives +1 hit, +2 damage. Its already better. Not allowing it to stack makes greater weapon focus completely useless.

I looked at the combat medic and wasn't really impressed; spontaneous heal you can pick up by using the cleric alternate class feature from PHB2 and choosing Healing as your domain for spontaneously casting. Empowered is much, much better than maximised. You can get some pretty sick bonuses on...

Deinonychus was originally a large creature in the 3.5 MM, however it was significantly reworked in the 3.5MM errata and is now a medium sized creature.

In the D&D world rat swarms are immune to damage from cats anyway; eventually they'd pick up on this and lose all fear of cats imo.

Technically a wand of lesser vigor is a magic item that provides fast healing ;)

Those are both interesting options, thanks. Wasn't entirely sure what type of character yet, was just tossing around ideas.. with that apprenticeship stuff a cleric w/ trickery domain and entertainer apprenticeship looks pretty interesting tho... Master of Masks requirements aren't too bad...

The PrC requires 8 ranks in each of Bluff, Disguise, and Perform to qualify. So unfortunately no tumble instead.

I was looking at the master of masks prestige class from Complete Scoundrel and thought it was very flavourful, but I was looking for an unusual way in to it; the main stumbling block to this is the perform ranks required. I know that rogue and bard offer perform, but are there any other classes...

"Smote", I believe. And Complete Champion is pretty horrible for power creep, I honestly don't know what they were thinking with some of the stuff in there. Pounce for first level barbarian being the obvious culprit, but some of the feats... Holy Warrior, Law Devotion... ugh. They actually make...

Actually no, it didn't. Mithril for heavy armour is 9000gp, not 10000gp. Full plate is 1500gp. That's 10500gp. http://www.systemreferencedocuments.org/35/sovelior_sage/specialMaterials.html

A wolf advanced in size is virtually identical to a dire wolf anyway (except the dire wolf has a good will save), so there's no real point; just take the dire wolf at 7th. Its a pretty good choice, the high strength and trip is especially effective. And the ECS places winter wolf as 10th level...
