Dragonwrought Kobold = Awesome Psion?

A quote from Draconomicon, page 66:

QED

Thanks for pointing that out. I have never paid too much attention to that book.
That gives a lot of undue power to kobolds, though.

Why are you taking Fighter levels? One for a feat and heavy armor prof. I can see, I guess. What does Kobold Fighter give you?

Table 6–9: Kobold Fighter Racial Substitution Levels
Base
Attack Fort Ref Will
Level Bonus Save Save Save Special
1st +1 +2 +0 +0 Spear focus, Dodge
2nd +2 +3 +0 +0 Constitution boost (Con +2)



Draconomicon is 3.5??

Dragonwrought Kobolds are good at things? What a fascinating concept!

Not as much as one would think. As I said in different post (by same OP), all good epic feats require high BAB or some skill above 23. Something DWKs don't have beyond... epic levels XD
Things to look out for are Epic Speed (dex 21, Run), Epic Toughness, Epic Spell Penetration (S.Pen. and Greater S.Pen.) off the top of my head.

@ OP... Are you sure you need those fighter levels? You will hurt your Psion leveling. If you want to go with a dip, 1 levels of sorcerer (with quick meta ACF) + loredrake template + greater draconic rite can net you alter self into shadow wyrmling (or wings of cover) and it only costs you 1 level dip + 1 feat. If you dip 2, you get second 2nd level spell. All around better choice, IMHO.

I don't want to be spending PP every single round, i wanna make some dmg with my spear 10' reach too :/ that's why maybe i'll take those 2 lvls, and the +2 Con bonus will work wonderful with a psion.

Nobody answered if Draconomicon is 3.5 or 3.0 :/

Do those kobold fighter levels require you to give up any proficiencies? Cause seriously, if I were a psion going into fighter and losing manifester levels, I'd be doing it to walk around in mithral full plate with a tower shield.


And you don't need a weak d6 spear that you probably have a str penalty with to have something to do every round of combat. Your int should be high w/ DW Kobold, you'll have lots of PP. Just pick some "economy powers." Ones that give you a lot of mileage with just a point or 3 spent. I like the Demoralize power, for example. For 1 measly PP, you get a 30 ft burst effect that doesn't affect allies, will save or be shaken for minutes.

November 2003 is 3.5, in theory.

I still have LIght Armor Proficiency with those kobold fighter lvls.
And got nice BAB and +2 to con. And with a Mithrall breastplate should be it.

Im talking about taking some dmg with melee or ranged, besides my powers.

Cause there will be some time on the day that i will need to give my PP a rest.

If you don't mind dropping the heavy armor and tower shield proficiency, use Hit and Run Fighter from Drow of the Underdark (you do NOT have to be a drow to take it). Gives you an initiative bonus and bonus damage equal to your dexterity modifier on melee and ranged attacks within 30 ft on flatfooted targets.
