Alright, what can you tell me about the quick battlemind build? And what support it has in terms of feats and paragon paths? And battlemind stuff in general?

Wild Battlemind

Class feature: Wild Focus. pulls an enemy towards the character and marks him.

2 heroic level feats for them. One has the wild focus pull a target 2 more squares. The other increases the forced movement of all their battlemind powers by one.

There are no paragon paths for them. All the PP's are either racial or build off of one of the character themes.

I can't say much about the build as I've never played or seen a battlemind in action so know little about them other then reading the class.

a new day and a new question

Could you explain a little bit predator paragon path?

Are there any interesting feats for thri kreen?

Of the new races I think thri kreen get the most options, so lots of neat things for them. THere is a thri-kreen monk feat, a thri-kreen ranger feat, and one that makes their claws become reliable.

Lots of flavor of a hunting and jumping into action thri-kreen.

That makes a lot of sense since they're the most portable and popular race coming out of DS (I think its interesting that they're introducing kalashtar to Athas, as its a nice way to expand them beyond Eberron and makes me wonder how they'll introduce a more generalized mul).

I have an irrational love of the aarakocra since I first read about them in the 1e FF. Can you provide a little more detail on them?

Level 6 skirmishers. They live high in the cliffs and hunt and scavenger though they are also a deeply spiritual people.

tembo sound right, lol, wasn't the damage that made them scary, it was the life they sucked that sucked!
level drain was horrible, especially from a low lvl critter!! Drain = broken and obnoxious as hell in 1st/2nd ed, hated it as DM, where as losing healing surges is scary and nasty but doesn't wreck a character, which is damn better

Tembo are evil prowlers and hunters of the weak and infirm, hated killers of kids, precious farm animals and elderly (who are important "wisemen" etc in Athas, think about it, no written culture etc so elders really would be respected)
Tembo are NOT "dreadnoughts", more like to jump out, suck life, flee, pounce when vicitm isn't looking, rinse repeat until they are a withered husk
so a skirmisher or lurker is more likely


my fave were those damned bloody belgoi, I had to makeup custom rules to make them more fun, less suck, or insta gib
how good are they now as dangerous NPCs?
