Padma has diamond nightmare blade for ~200, greater insightful strike for another ~100, and a whole bunch of other lesser strikes... or she can just go ethereal for a round and come out with DNB ready again.Granted, my girls were better in straight up melee with their Cha-boosted attack bonuses...BTW, how come you took punishing stance? No higher level Iron Heart stances you found interesting?BTW2, I made a warblade for Savage Tide (Keca's been all sorts of busy, so AoW has been on hold for the last three weeks). He started as pure Iron Heart, with the inevitable exception of moment of perfect mind, but now I'm trying to decide on the direction I'll be taking him.White Raven can make a great pirate captain, but there's another player doing the flamboyant swashbuckler thing, and I'm already playing the diplomat in AoW, so this time I went with a typical D&D fighter personality, complete with Cha 8. Not that that makes WR maneuvers any less effective, but it just doesn't fit very well.Tiger Claw only has a couple of maneuvers I like, but those I really like, and there's an organization in the city called the Church of Whirling Fury which is a bunch of evil-hating barbarians and clerics, so TC could create an interesting angle there.And then there's Diamond Mind, which is overall one of my favorites (along with IH), but I'm not sure if I want to play that sort of monkishness in a pirate game. OTOH, the church of Wee Jas is strong in the city, and I've taken a liking for them already, so I might end up as the only law-leaning member of the party...OK, I'm done with the hijack. We can get back to talking about Padma now.</blockquote>
