I like a lot of your ideas. They eliminate some of the possible silliness while still maintaining the concept of Gestalt. I have recently started playing in a Gestalt campaign. Our experience has been similar to yours, we have a few more options than we otherwise would and the characters are...

Heh, no, using 3.5 does not help. At all. :p

What is a Rune? What book are they from?

Here you go.

Bracers of Armor provide an armor bonus to AC. If you use actual armor it provides an armor bonus to AC. You can increase the armor bonus of the armor with a magical enhancement bonus, but the armor is still providing an armor bonus to AC. In 3.5e shield provides a +4 shield bonus to AC.

Mithral ads 2 to the max Dex bonus. I believe the Nimble enchantment ads another 2. I think Nimble is in Magic of Faerun.

Once you go epic, you can use the Epic Spellcasting feat to create permanent spells that give significant bonuses to AC. If you increase the casting time a lot, you can get a good bonus for a low XP/gold cost. Get yourself a Rod of Security so you have a safe place to cast the spells. The Armor...

The Eldritch Knight is in the DMG (or the SRD). I suggest looking over the 3.5e SRD. There is a sticky post with links to it at the top of the D&D Rules board.

Initiate of Illmater is a feat from Players Guide to Faerun. Fortunate Fate is from Magic of Faerun. Rods of Metamagic are from the DMG. And, you're welcome. :)

The ELH says any item granting an enhancement bonus to a skill greater than +30 is considered an epic item.

Wasn't it ruled somewhere that antimagic field blocks line-of-effect?

Start taking Hierophant levels at 21. You want full spell progression. Divine Reach is great for healers and, depending on the alignments in the party, Faith Healing. If you *really* want to focus on healing, go for Spontaneous Domain Access to the Healing Domain. Then you can spontaneously...

Meaning, I believe, that dual-weilding short swords is not a path to melee monster unless you do a large amount of sneak attack damage. Two-handed weapon weilders with power attack tend to make the best melee monsters. You can do silly things with Monkey Grip and two-handed heavy weapons. They...

The new-and-improved 3.5e version protects regardless of direction. Note the reduction from a +7 bonus to a +4 bonus and the change in type from a cover bonus to a shield bonus. I believe the theory was the changes balance each other out. It certainly makes it easier to ajudicate.

I checked both Masters of the Wild and Savage Species. Neither contain feats to increase SR. Both books have feats to increase DR, though, so that might be what some people are thinking of. It looks like your only option pre-epic is the feat from BoED or an item of spell resistance. A few other...

A 10th level Shifter, though, has access to pretty much all types but Fey and all sizes but Colossal.

My character will reach 21st level next session, and I'm having difficulty finding a good Epic feat to choose. Upon levelling, he will be a Gnome (Shapechanger) Druid 6/Nature's Warrior 5/Shifter 10. Due to a generous DM ruling, he has access to the (Ex) and (Su) abilities of the forms he takes...

Which spell does this? I seem to have missed it.

I think you get to choose either Harm's Way or both Deflect Attack and Defensive Strike. If you use Harm's Way, the attack is no longer against your charge and, therefore, Deflect Attack and Defensive Strike no longer apply.

I believe it is possible to qualify as a straight cleric by taking the Spells domain. With greater anyspell you can technically cast the sorcerer/wizard spells in the True Necromancer prerequisites. I don't know of any dieties who have both the Death and Spells domains, so you would probably...
