[QUOTE="drexes, post: 2913847, member: 24176"] Ok first impression: It's pretty cool, I think you have a really nice base concept and only see a few areas that I'm not completely sold on. For the elemental companion, I think a little more clarification may be in order. How does growth work? What is the stat improvement? Do I use the medium elemental as the baseline now, or do I just add size to my small one. The SRD only has it's strength improve by four when it goes up in size. Misinterpretation could lead to some problems there. Stonesleep: I don't see why a rogue should be better equiped to see a dwarf sleeping inside a stone. Either they should be undetectable through normal means, or there should just be a high spot/search check. Stoneback: This is a cool, 'back to the wall' ability. Though I think it would be unlikely that the stonewarden would already have Improved Uncanny Dodge form another class and without it, this ability would protect him only from much lower level rogues. Stonearmor: Very cool, except, I don't like per week abilities, they're just too hard to track. Maybe make it once per day... Call Earth Elemental: At roughly sixteenth level a stonewarden can summon an elder elemental but an equal level wizard can only summon a greater one, which is two challenge ratings lower. This should maybe toned down to bring it in line with the summon monster VIII. Saves: I don't get the good reflex saves at all. I can see good fort, maybe good will, but not good reflex. After all these guys are all about the rock, and the reflexes of a rock is a bad thing. Just my thoughts Drexes [/QUOTE]
