Detail Discussion

Yup my adventure is near complete. Those who finish it will be 2nd level, but a follow up adventure will be possible if they want to continue (not the full adventure path, but another one). As for my own characters neither of my remaining characters would fit that bill as my current character, Bloodtalon is my roguish/master inquisitive type character for LEB.

Valenar Elf/Talena Halfling racial weapons

While I'm going to be responding to my character comments in email (As soon as I remember and I'm in a spot where I have my books), something I did want to get clarification on (Or at least an official stance as I suspect it'll come up again)

In the Eberron Campaign guide, the Talenta Sharrash, Tangat, and Boomerang are described as being martial weapons for Talenta Plains Halflings. Likewise, the Valentar Double Scimitar is listed as a martial weapon for Valentar Elves. However, the Races of Eberron book later incorporated two new feats that have text that state "X race from Y region may treat these as martial weapons." along with a few other bonuses. I've always seen this as just 'reminder' text for those that might not have the original book, but I can see where it might imply a rule change. I'd like to get 'official' commentary on which of these interpretations is correct and get it added to the rules sticky so this problem doesnt crop up again.

Well, either of the two characters Velmont mentions would be welcome... otherwise, perhaps we could release the secondary characters. It looks like that would free up at least one rogue, based on Icycool's post.

I'd like to say that I'd swap out my paladin for it, as I've decided I don't really like it. But as the Knight class has just been approved (I like it better than the paladin), I'll be submitting one for approval shortly to replace Aidan.

You are correct, I missed the note under the weapons table in the ECS. I was looking through the descriptions and couldnt find it. Remembering the more recent RoE entry, I looked there next and found the feats. Yes the Sharrash, Tangat, and Boomerang are all martial weapons for talenta plains halflings. Feel free to drop me an email.

As far as Traps and Wards is concerned, we have two rogues in Forgotten Forge. Once that's done, we should have them available.

Erekose13, I'll try and email you a notice tonight, but if you see this, I've submitted a new character for approval, Guardian (a failed warforged/shield guardian experiment). If approved, I'll be retiring Aidan and using Guardian instead (i.e. Guardian will be the character I'm using as my level 1 slot).

 

[Erekose13]

IcyCool. Guardian is approved, I'll have to log in in a bit to update the list. Go ahead and retire Aidan if that is your decision. I'll mark him as retired in the list.

Many thanks, I've never been too fond of the Paladin class, and wasn't really enjoying Aidan (not to mention avoiding IC conflicts). Aidan's out, Guardian's in. Thanks again.

I'd like to see in the ECS where it mentions this, but If it does, that trumps other books.

Please note, the Sharrash has been fixed in the ECS eratta, and is not a 19-20/4x crit weapon.
