Message: <blockquote data-quote="Duke Arioch" data-source="post: 6056536" data-attributes="member: 89050">first of all, thx for all the info Rumbletiger. I would give you XP, however, aparently, I "have to spread around more XP to others".last night I joined the said group as a spectator, because I am starting this sunday. Ihad a talk with DM beforehand, and he green lighted everything I presented him. He liked the changeling workaround of getting metamorphosis in e6. I was happy with my onept, until I atually witnessed the group play.Now, on paper, the group seemed awesome. Some of their haraters ilustrating heavy optimization. But in play, they showed only a fration of potential suh group ould tap into.Crusader/ardent deides to stay pure rusader. He is new to ToB and really strugles in his self imposed tank role. He an get better, though, and I will show him how to play the class. Crusader is really strong in e6, so I thunk he will shine brighter once he gets the ruleset.Wizard basially chooses to walk around blasting, and forgeting to ompliment the party in any way (grease instead of magi missile omes to mind). But even that is fine, as wizard is very flexible, and with a few pointers an be great asset.Warlock does what he should, and is only one thinking outside the box. Summon swarm FTW on lvl1, and he utilizes it perfectly. Ofc, 5ft entangling breath isn't much atm, but with planned feats and more HD, he will be excellent controler.Rogue dropped the group as well, because of some personal issues.So, in a group like this, I think heavily optimized egoist I presented would stick out like a sore thumb one we hit 6, and would possibly steal the show from the group I described, and maybe ruin fun for at least 2 of them (rusader and wizard).So I told DM I will think of something else less powerful, as I don' think 10 headed hydra resolving every ombat is gonna be fun for the rest of the group. Now, I don't want to drop psionis, sine I never really played psionic character, but I also like ToB, and want to ombine the two.After researh, I think I found a build I will enjoy playing: swordsage4/ardent2.This build will have one lvl 1 power, two lvl 1 or lvl2 powers and one lvl 3 power (3from ardent, 1 from hidden talent). I am thinking of getting D. hop, synchroniity and hustle (eventually linked) and maybe astral construct. Fous on wis and dex. Dunno whih rae to pik, but half daelkyr with claw symbiont and short sword would be able to utilize double strike maneuver, as well as granting me nie aberation type. Kalashtar fits ok two, as PP will need every boost possible. Selecting maneuvers will be diffiult, though.So, TL;DR, thanks Rumbletiger, although I will play something different.</blockquote>
