I suppose if I go Cleric/Crusader/PrC Pally I can get both Blade of Blood and Divine Sacrifice. I think that could work for me. Thanks for the suggestions. I also pretty regularly use Viscious, being a primarily Cleric player. It's amazing how many problems can be solved by just playing a Cleric.

Well, the class feature specifically states that it is a Heavy Warhorse or Warpony. Plus, it seems rather over the top having some other random magical beast, especially since the Skeletal Steed will eventually get bonuses like a paladin's mount. On that topic, the entry in the Skeletal Steed...

So is there any way to defend your mount while you're on it? Anything that lets me penalize something for attacking my mount would be good. For our last encounter my mount was almost killed, but I didn't take a single point of damage. I should mention that I'm a Cleric that has just taken 1...

So, I've been using mounted combat recently. I don't have nay mounted combat feats, but I got a warhorse and 9 ranks in ride+military saddle. This allows me to move and attack when mounted and usually use my ride skill to gain a cover bonus. As I have become rather hard to hit, my DM has...

Yes, that seems about right, I was just experimenting with a cohort that works as a save reducer for my spells. I've already got Improved Bind Vestige for Focalar (-2 to saves 5ft out) and Paladin of Tyranny for another -2 10ft out.

Alright, I was not sure if being untyped was enough to make it stack.

Both the Paladin of Tyranny and the Blackguard have the Aura of Despair ability. Unlike the Wis to AC ability that appears on monk, swordsage, and ninja, this penalty is untyped. If I multiclass between the 2, do both instances of Aura of Despair stack? Also, do Paladin of Tyrrany levels count...

Darkfire Level 3 for 1 round/level you can make a ranged touch attack that deals 1d6/2CL as a standard action. It doesn't emit light, but creatures with darkvision can see it as a normal fire. It's like mini eldritch blast.

The DMG II for 3.X has a section on templates for magic armor and weapons; this selection is rather limited. I was wondring if anyone know of any other wizards official sources that would contain additional templates? Thank you.

I'm in a low-magic campaign and I'm playing a Fighter 5/Dervish 9 and I want to get some Nightsong Enforcer levels in there, since Dervish Dance is a great way to set up a sneak attack and Agility Training has great synergy with tumbling past enemies. What I'm looking for is a class that isn't...

I think you're right Persiflage.

I assumed as much for corpsecrafter, I guess it just paled in comparison to other single-companion abilities. I think what I am trying to go for is the undead equivalent of an animal companion. Is there some version of that? Or perhaps a necromantic druid? I also vaguely remeber a feat that...

I'm considering various necromantic-type classes and I'm not sure which feats are the most useful. How useful is the corpsecrafter chain? And, I'm not sure if I'm reading this correctly, but does corpsecrafter add the +4 strength for each hit die? I ask because I don't really want a large army...

I have given him the specs for Swashbuckler along with daring outlaw. The DM won't have problems with a few switches in stats/feats, as long as his character isn't completely changed. He's still somewhat skeptical and wants to go for assassin. I've done all that I can, Thank you all for the help.

I have always wondered how ranged rogues are useful. Unless I'm reading SA incorrectly, don't you only get it if the enemy is flat-footed or you're the one creating a flanking situation? How does one achieve that from a distance?

We generally don't play with exp penalties, within reason. Swashbuckler seems pretty useful, especially since we've been dealing with piracy/naval trade for the entire campaign so far. You are correct about the dex increase, and since I mentioned that he's probobly going to die from mummy rot...

Also, i'm somewhat interested in the 10-level Invisible Blade version. From my time playing as a Ninja, I have found that the free action feint is invauable, although I do agree that the pre-reqs are odd.

For usable books, we have PH, PH2, DMG, and SC, but some of us have been using various online sources. Basically, anything not broken/abusive of the rules is allowed. We play with rolled stats, and i'm not sure about the DM allowing retraining, but I'm sure that he won't be too strict. The...

I have been playing a campaign with a relatively new player and he's not too happy with his character. I'm not the DM, so I am not omnipotent in this situation. He is a human and currently has the following stats: STR 16 DEX 18 CON 10 INT 11 WIS 11 CHA 14 We are level 6-7, and he has...

Commune is your best bet. I was mostly joking about it, but when my cleric became a lich he used mild acid to scour the flesh from his bones (to remove decaying smell), and I wore Glamered armor from DMG to hide my appearance.
