[QUOTE="mellored, post: 8821410, member: 6801209"] Being strong in something and weaker at something else is kinda a core mechanism of D&D. Different characters get different strengths and weaknesses. I.e. Paladins have higher AC and lower spells. While wizards have lower AC and higher spells. The 'item' is that dragon Paladin "[I]gained a set of armor made from the scales of the dragon they follow and a weapon made from it's tooth[/I]". Or maybe "[I]has their skin transformed into dragon scales and hands into claws[/I]" or whatever you want to imagine. As far as BA, nothing changes. A current fighter in plate with a greatsword has 18AC and does 2d6 damage. A Slayer armament fighter has 18AC and does 2d6 damage, and looks however he wants. Same stats, just without the equipment chart. And more flexibility with what to can do with it. [/QUOTE]
