Usually not. I was very cautious at first to allow it but even in campaigns where healing is pretty rare (and wands of CLW are not easily bought) it wasn't too strong. As our fighter said: At half hitpoints you're half dead. Edit: The penguin won initiative!

For fun, laughter and efficiency, I'd go Warblade1/bard4 with Song of the White Raven. Get some of the usual Inspire Courage boosters and take care you have enough hitpoints... You can play an extremely efficient archer with that build or a very good polearm fighter... I've even saw TWF builds...

Happiness.... so sought for and still people run away from it.

Precise Strike[General] (DR310 p69) Prerequisites: Sneak Attack class ability, Dexterity 13. When making a Sneak Attack, you may reduce the number of Sneak Attack dice that will apply to damage in exchange for a +2 Competence bonus to hit per die sacrificed. Note: The bonus to attack & reduction...

Ouch!

Looks like it never occured to us to find a way to make even more enemies than we already had :p

Yes, the class seems to be made for BBEGs.

No XP penalties if he's human or half-elf since duelist is a prestige class and fighter as his highest class does not count.

Or change it to something similar to sneak attack.

Ahhh, the ancient art of insulting someone... not exactly a German specialty.

Seconded. Being a specialist will get you killed in my campaigns. And yes, the players know that.

ranger/scout Swift Hunter can apply precision based damage to his favored enemies... so if you don't mind a bit multiclassing?

Hallow for a paladin king would be a real good idea. Tie darkness to it :D

Nifft seconded.

Get that Swift Avenger feat from Dragon for multiclassed druid/scouts... it's in Crystalkeep too. It increases your skirmish damage and your wild shape uses per day.

That's soooo not on topic ;) ... and maybe the reason why noone mentioned crusader yet.

I can't imagine a cool DM that allows a scout to use his skirmish damage if he was being moved by someone else, especially including spells. And the ToB goodies lower his skirmish damage. GrManyshot though... I do have a Swift Hunter hobgoblin in my group right now and he's doing the damaging...

I'm a fan.

Swashbucklers add Int mod to damage. If you want to go the swashbuckling route, get Daring Outlaw for full sneak attack damage for a multiclassed Swashbuckling rogue. Add some of the alternate Swashbuckling class features, you'll do fine. I had such a TWF dude in my group...

Well. A cone is a cone. Literally. So you are right. At least I've always did it that way.
