    Are fighters that specialize in spiked chain viable/survivable at most/all levels?

    I've had a player use a spiked chain up to level 14. The character was the fighter/ scout I mentioned earlier. He focused on using AoO's to his benefit and getting as many in a round as possible. The Skirmish ability and two to three attacks a round at Full BAB makes for good damage output...

    Do you track rations?

    The only time we've kept track of rations is in a low magic/ gritty campaign such as Midnight.

    Are fighters that specialize in spiked chain viable/survivable at most/all levels?

    Multiple reasons actually. You'd have to take feats to specialize in multiple weapons instead of one (Weapon Focus, Improved Crit, etc). You'd have to spend valuable resources on multiple magical weapons instead of one. When switching to your short range weapon, you'd have to use a one handed...

    Epic Suggestions for a 35th level tank

    2. Take something that will give you plenty of AoO's to increase your damage, since every AoO is at your highest BAB and is a free attack. Take feats like Combat Reflexes, Epic Combat Reflexes, and Karmic Strike (Complete Warrior). Get a speed weapon. Why have you increased the Strength so...

    If my character were level 100, I would...

    I wonder... exactly what did you kill to get to level 100? Whole armies? Adventuring parties of gods? Could you even get to level 100 without wiping out the entire multiverse? And more importantly, how many trees would you have to kill for your character sheet? You'd have at least 30 feats+...

    So, how would YOU make a ECL 100 character?

    Paladin 90/ Cavalier 10 with a Holy Devastator Lance, Great Smiting x 59= +5310 damage smite, on a charge +26, 550... Then I would go smite the Abyss... Or a really big hulking hurler that throws worlds at people =D

    Feat recommendation for Paladin

    If you really want min-max potential, you might want to try the mounted chain. A smiting/ divine might/ five power attack/ spirited charge would do atk +12 damage- 3d8+60 at your current level. Add in the spell Divine Sacrifice from Complete Divine for another 5d6. Otherwise, I'd opt for...

    cheesy things to do with 2wf

    I think the RAW don't disallow this, but it's basically trying to take an advantage of loopholes. It's nowhere near the intent of the rules IMO. Also, it would seem to be a terrible ineffective way of fighting in real life in my opinion, and there I see a roleplaying snag. Then again I see...

    Oddest research question - the price of sand.

    It's not that bad... there's a couple lakes with natural sand... I think. Anyway, the beach near my house uses imported sand, and I bet it costs a ton.

    Uber Tanks

    The latest tank in my group was actually a scout/ fighter combination. He specialized in making AoO's, and his feats looked something like this: Combat Reflexes, Combat Expertise, Improved Trip, Hold the Line, Karmic Strike, Dodge, Mobility, Spring Attack, and more. He would attack with...

    Real zombies with malaria?!?

    LoL. I guess I have to start being on the lookout for April Fool's jokes all year round now.

    Info on American States?

    I can help you with some insight into Iowa. It's a mix of rural and urban areas, but mostly farmland. The land is often flat with gently rolling hills, as a result of the glaciers that once covered it, however it's often a nice green. We sport a deep rich black soil that's perfect for...

    Interesting news article... who woulda thunk that zombies are created by malaria? :D http://65.127.124.62/south_asia/4483241.stm.htm

    Ever played the intro to DnD game at Wizards?

    There's an intro to DnD at the wizards website or this URL: http://www.wizards.com/playdnd/playdnd.asp You select the bottom left box at the initial screen where it says play the DnD basic demo game. This thing is horrible, it almost Hurt to play. The script in the demo is what I expect when...

    Figuring CR for Goblins with class levels.

    Duh... I remember that now. Thanks for the refresher =D

    Figuring CR for Goblins with class levels.

    I'm having a problem coming up with the CR for a goblin with advanced class levels. Namely: Rog1/Ftr5, Rog2/Ftr6, Rog3/Ftr7, Rog4/Ftr8, Rog4/Ftr2, Rog5/Fr4, Rog7/Ftr5. Also, if you could explain how exactly you come up with the CR for a goblin. I know adding associated class levels adds +1...

    So you have the Evasion class feature.... again...

    I would actually give the player Lightning Reflexes. I figure it fits rather well. Instead of giving him the much better Improved Evasion, I'll give him something that increases his chances of using Evasion.

    Paladin

    Divine Might is a definite boost in power to a paladin with a decent charisma. Spells like Sacrifice (or Divine Sacrifice?), Zeal, and some others from Defenders of the Faith are nice. Another great option would be to multiclass as a Sorceror, perhaps a Paladin 4/ Sorceror 3, though typically...

    An 'Epic Levels' (or close to them) rant

    I didn't read the entire thread, but I found that the amount of high level characters as rulers bothered me as well. IMC I toned down a lot of the rulers in FRCS, but equipped them with rather powerful items. I figure most rulers will have plenty of funds at their disposal, and will spend some...

    So what do/did you study in college? Did you bother with college?

    Started in Computer Science, found that I really can't stand typing code on a computer all day. So I quit for a bit, worked in a veneer/ lumber mill and loved it, nothing like playing with dump trucks, fork lifts, and chain saws. Now I'm going to college for a Business Management degree, and...
