In Libris Mortis, there's an item called the Cheesestick Nightstick which grants you 4 extra turning uses per day. It's the DM's discretion whether they stack or not. They're not that expensive, I think 4k each?

Well, you definitely want a high Wis for the bonus spells and save DCs. Zen Archery gives you single-attribute dependency for a feat. Yes, having higher Dex can give you more feat flexibility (both in feats you qualify for and the feat saved in Zen Archery). However, I think feats that...

Actually, Cleric Archers usually don't have very high Dexterity, so being able to use Full Plate is definitely an advantage. Additionally, Cloistered Clerics only get 1/2 BAB progression, so your attacks will be worse if Divine Might isn't up (Dispel, perhaps). While the Cloistered Cleric is...

Fixed ;). The key feats for a Cleric Archer are PBS, Rapid Shot, Zen Archery, and either Quicken Spell or DMM(Persistant Spell) and its 2 prerequisites. Here is an archived thread on the official boards regarding building Cleric Archers. Divine Might requires Power Attack as a prereq. I...

A game of rock-paper-scissors with the added dynamite option of magic, and the only thing that trumps it is more magic. Just to be accurate :).

The only practical Bo9S high damage combo I can think of requires you to full attack the same enemy two rounds in a row, with very minimal payoff if you can't get the second full attack in (actually, I suppose I forgot about some of the TWF abilities, but those seem equally situational). On the...

Larger sized weapons no longer increase your reach. Baring other reach-improving features, that creature with longspear threatens 10' with a donut at 5'.

Plus, maybe you want to reliably pierce DR 2 rounds in a row. You can't ready the same maneuver multiple times, so you ready different but similar maneuvers. (I think penetrating DR would be highly situational, so...) Plus they count for different prerequisites. @Martial Spirit: A useful...

I'll refer you to someone else's opinion here... If you don't rule this way, Synchronicity becomes a solid "don't abuse it or you lose it" power for me. And I'm not someone inclined to ban things... Polymorph effects are broken in general, and the Metamorphic Transfer feat makes it a ton...

The RotG is notoriously problematic in many respects though, so I'd be hesitant to trust its ruling.

I'd treat flying from magic spells as physical actions as opposed to mental actions. Otherwise, you get into tricky situations like whether you can fly while affected by Hold Person. So, I'd rule that when your Str hits 0, you can't fly. Also note that the Flying spells are often affected by...

Because your hand isn't where the spell originates from. Your square is, and that's behind the veil. Plus then you're just shifting the problem of getting through the ward to your hand, I think?

There's nothing illegal about such a character under the normal gestalt rules, although I can't imagine it being very powerful at all.

If you want your primary schtick to be dealing damage in a min-maxed game at level 20, ask yourself this: can I consistently deal over 200 damage per round? If no, your build probably isn't going to be that strong, and you should either look for a different primary schtick or change your build...

Questions: 1) How much can you change? 2) What sources are allowed? 3) How cheesy is too cheesy?

Wise words: Now, some aspects of Bo9S can be very powerful. Thicket of Blades combined with a reach weapon and Stand Still makes a solid super glue tank, and Stormguard Warrior can create some eyepopping damage figures. But I think this all pales in comparison to the power of stuff like...

Well, the Chuck link in my sig goes to the current record-holder for fastest character, but it uses a cheesy tactic that I doubt the DM will allow :). But if you want to move around the country a couple times then throw the BBEG into the sun, sometimes you need a little cheese. For the...

The problem is the best archery spells are either in the Cleric list or the Ranger list. The Druid's archery spells are more battlefield control spells like Entangle and Kelpstrand than buff spells. So if you're not dead set on playing a Druid, here are some options: 1) Play a Cleric archer...

Whoops, I only saw the part about double your attack bonus :(. I still think it's too strong; treat it as a +5 bonus to attack (always good in combat) at the expense of -5 AC (situational), with an option to turn it off.

All-Out Attack is a REALLY GOOD feat. Compare to Shock Trooper's Heedless Charge: You don't need to actually charge, you don't need to PA for more than 5, and this can actually improve your attack bonus. If you really need to get a monster down and/or have non-AC defenses like Displacement or...
