All of the above, plus: True. I'd allow it too, but wouldn't it at least require a Concentration check? How are the ruels at this point?

I strongly recommend using fractional BAB and saves when playing Gestalt. Saves a lot of thinking.

Yeah, that's the point. He won't be able to use the feat unless he's under the effect of the spell. That means the feat becomes very situational, does not work in an AMF, is subject to Dispel Magic etc etc. I believe these drawbacks are hard enough.

You can't flank with your Dark Companion. It does not threaten any area and opponents automatically recognize it as an illusion.

Constructs are not immune to the "dazed" condition, although they are immune to most effects producing it (typically Ench(comp)[mind] spells). Living constructs are not immune to dazing and not immune to mind-affecting effects. So yes, they can be dazed.

Sure it is. Polymorph is a 4th level Wizard spell, it can be duplicated by Miracle. But beware, Polymorph is a can of worms and your DM's gonna hate you. Yes indeed, welcome to the world of high-level spellcasting! Yeah, you can turn into a Fire Giant, cast Quickened Righteous Might in the...

Meh. Given your stats and hit points, you're better off not going into melee. I'd suggest you work at what you're good, and that's singing and playing the source of knowledge. It's not just about combat, you know.

You're gonna need high Wis to weaken your opponents, 'cause most debuff spells do allow a save. So you're gonna do pretty much everything available for a cleric, except Save-or-dies, which are frankly one of the cleric's most potent weapons. Feels to me like playing a monk, but not fighting...

Yeah, well... how many characters go without any magic items at all*? They would still be detected. *VoP ones, I know...

Possibly. OTOH, the extra spell slot for things such as True Strike, Identify or See Invisibility is always useful and the alternate class feature is very nice (saves are a wizard's weakness). Yeah, Scrying and Augury may be out, but that's not all what Divination's about. Yeah...

I'd also say Swordsage with focus on Diamond Mind and Tiger Claw. Maybe with a few levels on Fighter somewhere.

A versatile no-brainer: Diviner (Glimpse Peril variant class feature from PHB2) 5 / Divine Oracle 2. Drop Evocation, the Conjuration school has enough damaging spells. Feats: Human: Skill Focus (Knowledge: Religion) - prerequisite for Divine Oracle Start: Spell Penetration Wiz 1: Scribe Scroll...

Understood, though 2d4/18-20 x2 would be a high damage output for a 1-h weapon. It's comparable to the elven blade, which is an exotic weapon and requires a feat to wield. For the historical part: Falchions are indeed one-handed swords, historically speaking, similar to scimitars but with a...

Hey, sorry about that. I didn't mean to insult you, and I agree that my formulation could have been a bit... nicer. I do understand that you're definitely NOT a nOOb and just trying to post some creative builds, and I respect that (plus it gives me ideas too for my next arena games :D). I'll try...

D'oh. That's ugly. Let's say you're facing a dragon. Oh, it flies. And has spells and a Breath weapon, and most probably Flyby Attack, and a fly speed of, what, 120'?, and a whole lot of hit points. Hmmm... hopefully you can nail him out of the sky before he burns you to ashes. What was your...

Sorry, I don't intend to question the validity of his research, Im just saying that a class allowing a... what... Lvl 6 character to use a 2-handed weapon 1-handed, counting an exotic horror like the great flachion as a normal weapon, adding a number of scary abilities, without ANY drawbacks, is...

Gotta explain the 12-20 threat range... I don't get it. Same remark as all your builds, low survivability for your CR: low HP and AC, no DR, awful saves (Will +5 at CR 21, you're kidding, aren't you?). A spellcaster/psionic 8 class levels lower could take you out of the fight with a single...

That Falchioneer class appears to be the result of a power-starved third-party teenager with size compensation problems. It's so unbalanced that it hurts. A few comments however - If you redesign your build to use with scimitars, you could spare Oversized TWF, as the Dervish treats scimitars as...

If you're talking real medieval warfare here, no. Water was used, because oil was exceedingly expensive and thus not available in such large amounts. But it's a fantasy setting, after all.

A few suggestions to increase the monk's power without tweaking the class' flair and without making it overpowered either. Those suggestions are, of course, to be taken separately, not together... - Full BAB... bit primitive - Give your Monks one tattoo / 4 levels from Tattoed Monk PrC...
