[QUOTE="Marius Delphus, post: 3270732, member: 447"] Between magical books and magical gear, I think DEX 20's very doable while getting STR to 30 and CON at least 20. If it sounds like an awful lot of attribute points, maybe it is, but this whole thing is mainly an experiment anyway -- these characters took on H4 after all, and I think they deserve really terrific epic 3.5 writeups. Certainly nobody in the party started with any 8s. :) Course, that'll make it all the better if they break out of retirement and take on an actual adventure only to learn that I still have a mean streak as a DM. :) Okay. For some reason I always read Combat Reflexes as: I'm sure the player will take the extra; I'm not anticipating any complaints at all on that one. :) Five seemed about right when I was thinking about it so maybe we can shift some gear cash into CON... ponder ponder. Thanks for the heads-up. EDIT: But what a silly misreading that is on my part, now that I think of it. Suppose you have DEX 13 and Combat Reflexes... how many AoOs do you get? Obviously it's got to be more than one, for the price of a feat. So 1+DEXBON *must* be right. [/QUOTE]
