Thanks for the feedback Herschel. the reason I didn't take Improved Swordmage Warding is simply because Arcane power had not been out when I got to that point. Didn't switch it up yet, but it is a good plan to do so. Although, if i go down, that extra 1 armor from Hide does come in...

But then I would lose my SwordMage ability...i thought that at least in heroic path it was best to stay with Hide or better leather..?

Hey all, We did a quick count the other day and we found that my swordmage (lvl 8 Eladrin, sheilding) was below par for its level when it came to magic items... I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions? Here is what I currently have: Bloodclaw Longsword +2 Magic Hide Armor +1 Skull...

Wow...this is what happens when you set the wrong notification type. Sorry for the delay. Ok, so now i understand the advantages and disadvantages to the feat. Its not bad...but the next level up one is definetively better. I am if there is mabey something better that I can take instead...

I have a question regarding this. How come its a really good feat? If I am a swordmage (Sheilding), and I use this when someone is next to me. It treats the squares next to me as difficult terrain. Why is this good for a swordmage? I have heard that it is supposed to make you more sticky...

I have a Lvl 2 Eladrin Swordmage (Sheilding). There is a Warlord, Wizard, Ranger , SM(me) and a Rogue in our party. We alternate dm's so in any given game, one of the characters will be missing. I already selected some feats, but I find them to be....missing somehting, so mabey i'm heading in...

Hey all, Hoping someone can shed some light for me. Intelegent Blademaster: I'm playing an Eladrin sheilding swordmage lvl2 and I came to understand that this feat is a "must have" for my class. I have played a few games and have never really used a basic attack. I'm pretty much always...

Thats a good way of seeing things. Since we have no controllers (or won't always have a controller with us that is) I think Dragonborn will be the way to go...Swordmage is already a defender, howeve i find it has a dash of controller to it aswell, so the dragonborn will compliment it. Thanks...

I just got my hands on the Forgotten Realms preview and I must say i'm anxious to try out the Sword Mage (Assault or sheilding, haven't decided yet). Looking over the races, I know that the Genasi is great with it(although I'm not terribly interested in it), but I am leaning more towards...

Hey all, I play a Cleric lvl 19. He is more of a caster based character than melee. I currently have for a weapon: Morning Star (+4/+4) If i wanted to add an ability (Spell Strike from MIC for example, Price bonus: +1), how much would I need to fork over? Would this make it a +5/+5...

Confirmed in SC: you get (if evil): Grow Batlike Wings +1 Nat Armor Bite/claw attacks darkvision 60 ft no poison resistances gained Dmg reduction 10/magic SR 25 +4 sTr, +4 Dex, +2 Con, -4 int, +2 cha Thats it. If i have a belt of constitution +4, gauntets of str +4, then the con and str bonus...

Rackhir: I looked it up. It will give me some resistances, 10/magic, I can fly for a few rounds. What else am i misssing....it seems to me that the spell does not allow the spell like abilities. Most of the time, when you can cast level 9 spells, you already have increased Con, Str, Cha, so...

Thank you for your replies! We are now level 19, so the bad guys don`t really have lvl less than level 10 mooks to clean up....so unless i go into an village and just activate the spell (we are an evil party so it is very do-able lol) then it isn't worth all that much. Even if the mooks were...

Hey all, i just don't get it. I have read quite a few places that these following spells are supposed to be great staple spells! But upon reading them, I wonder "Why would you choose these over others?". I need some perspective help on these...explain to me why they rock please: Cleric...

first off: Thank you for your answers, tomorrow's game will be fun with my new toys to try out :) Hijacking my own thread (i didn't want to keep on taking thread space, no offence to anyone :) : If i use the Conceal spellcasting (Complete Scoundrel, skill trick), and the oponent that i want to...

ok thanks, pretty much what i wanted to know :) al

I had misinterpretted it like a "Summon" type of spell for casting time. Thank you for the clarification! Now i'm much more happy with it....if only i knew what spells were fun to heighten (just joking :) ) Thank you very much for the education everyone :) Al

I keep on reading on the boards that there is more than just the PHBII for the beguiler spell list. I don't see where...and is there? Just wondering :) Al

Ahhh...ok thats the change that i didn't understand. A full round... I was wondering then, can i cast a spell while Hiding? If i use the Conceal Spellcasting skill trick (stops people from noticing that you are casting a spell)? I am just trying to see how i can use the highten spell feat...

How does this work? If i'm a level 4 Gnome Beguiler, I have Heighten Spell, can I spontaniously cast my lvl 1 spell (ex: color spray) and make it a lvl 2 spell (taking the slot of a level 2 spell without advanced preperation)? Thanks, Al
