    Prestige Classes for Spiked Chain fighters

    I greatly advise AGAINST taking that prestige class. It's horrible. Most of its abilities are never going to be used (such as the Chain Armor- honestly, it's no better than the armor you'll be wearing, so why give it out as a class ability?) and even the ones that you MIGHT be using are...

    Is Bardic Knowledge = to a feat ?

    It's Lara Croft. Considering that I'm positive that anyone who knows her name has read it at least ten times as often as heard it, I don't see how anyone could spell it wrong like that. It's just as bad as when people misspell characters' names from Webcomics (such as Xykon, from Order of the...

    [Frostburn] Shivering Touch: The new Harm

    Um... honestly, did that merit reviving a post from more than two years ago?

    Reincarnation Question

    Despite the fact that they're racial abilities, Feats and Skill ranks are specifically called out as being kept.

    Greater Magic Weapon and the Bane property?

    As Patryn said, it doesn't add +5 to the enhancement- it gives it a +5 enhancement bonus. It already had a +1 enhancement bonus, which wouldn't stack with the +1, and therefore would create a +5. It's not really open to interperetation, as the rules are quite clear. (That's what you can't just...

    Golden Ice (BoED)

    Oh, I greatly disagree. True, only good characters can use it, but it's a biological weapon that good creatures can use without any fear of being affected by it. Horrible, horrible idea.

    Appearance Altering Ideas?

    Didn't you (and your friend) say that you're only looking for a cosmetic effect? Unless you're looking for bonuses like Natural Armor, gills, or a claw attack or something, there's nothing about what you want that Disguise Self isn't perfect for.

    Golden Ice (BoED)

    You are correct. No creature (even constructs and mindless undead) lacks a Charisma score- many mindless creatures have a 1, but never a -. Also important to note- if it lacks a Charisma score, it also lacks a Wisdom score. In short, don't ever, ever, EVER implement Ravages and Afflictions into...

    Stretching Familiar Benefits

    I don't think you'd be able to share spells if the familiar isn't a viable target of the spell. Familiars are Magical Beasts for a reason.

    Greater Magic Weapon and the Bane property?

    If it works for a +5 Bane weapon (which it does), then it works for a +1 Bane weapon with Greater Magic Weapon cast on it. Of course, whether it can overcome /Epic DR is an argument in and of itself....

    Appearance Altering Ideas?

    I'm confused. What's your question?

    Crafting weapons questions.....

    Allow me to be the first to respond: You are CORRECT. Every new printing of the rules seems to change this, but the only sensible and non-contradictory way to play it is that the Caster Level entry is NOT a prerequisite. If it was, there would be no reason to specify the caster level...

    Dread Wraiths, Con Drain, and HP

    If I'm not mistaken (which I'm not), Lesser Restoration IS a Conjuration (Healing) spell, is it not?

    Dr ?

    It's hardly confusing. If you read the description for DR/Epic, it says you need a +6 or better weapon to beat it. It's not like it's hidden anywhere. Trust me, FAR more people get DR/Evil wrong than DR/Epic. If you bother to check the DR description, it tells it in plain english. (Unless you're...

    Artisan Feats (Are all three worth it?)

    Correct! I made a Cleric once that pretty much only made wondrous items, and so Magical Artisan was a life-saver. (And a time-saver. And money-saver. And experience-saver.) In response to letting it stack with the Eberron feats, I'd advise strongly against it. There's a reason you can only take...

    Equipping an angel

    Just making sure... shouldn't he be an 8th level character, as Aasimars have a +1 level adjustment?

    Dr ?

    I think you're making it a much bigger issue than it needs to be. Nothing needs to be changed- there really isn't that much confusion. No more confusion, anyway, than DR of /Evil- by looking at it, you'd think, "Oh, only Evil creatures can overcome its damage reduction!" but no, if you read the...

    Artisan Feats (Are all three worth it?)

    Well, Extraordinary and Legendary Artisan are definitely worth it in any campaign (the ones that reduce money & xp)- exceptional artisan is only useful in campaigns with clear time restrictions. If your campaigns allow you lots of downtime between adventures, there's no reason to take it. But...

    Snikt!

    Keep in mind, of course, that the Bladed Gauntlet was errata'd (and all following printings of SaF were corrected) to have a 19-20 crit range, not a 17-20. So it wasn't unbalanced at all unless you actively ignore the correction, which means YOU'RE making it unbalanced.
