[QUOTE="Mainländer, post: 3960606, member: 58503"] Some friends and I are starting a new campaign soon. I’ve decided to try the Duskblade because it just seems like a fun class to play; the quintessential Warrior-Mage with – I think – a very wide array of possible Prestige Classes to pick from. The only problem is my complete lack of knowledge about Duskblades so maybe the experienced players here could offer me some help. My biggest problem is Feats. [B]Arcane Strike[/B] seems like the penultimate Feat for the Duskblade so I’ll probably take that one at first level. I got [B]Knowledge Devotion[/B] penned in for Level 3 to take advantage of (at least) +1 Attack/Damage Rolls. For my second Level 1 Feat (I’m Human) I was thinking about [B]Power Attack[/B]. True Strike + two-handed weapon + Power Attack (especially later on with the [B]Repeat Spell[/B] Feat) seems like a deadly combination. The [B]Law Devotion[/B] Feat (+3 on AC or Attack Rolls) seems like a nifty Feat as well, but I’m not sure. Anyone got any tips for the Duskblade? [B]EDIT:[/B] There are already three other fighters in the group, so I was also thinking about using a reach weapon and fight from the second line. Does Power Attack work with reach weapons and is this a good idea? Also, just how would the Feat [B]Practised Spellcaster[/B] benefit the Duskblade? [/QUOTE]
