[QUOTE="lvl 1 fighter, post: 4692430, member: 82716"] I don't think the lance fits thematically in any of the Swordsages disciplines. I will add the longspear to the Desert Wind as a compromise. It's a reach weapon that would be appropriate for a mounted character and Desert Wind already has the spear so I think it could fit there without stretching the imagination too much. Step of the Wind will not work while mounted. It's about your movement abilities, not your mounts. Island of Blades will work mounted. Where is the half-charge rule from? I'm not familiar with that. Also, don't count on being able to find any magic item that you want to buy. I'm referring to in-game, not the one you buy in character creation. There's no magic shops. Anywhere. If there happens to be a Spellcaster in the city he or she doesn't know how to enchant weapons or create magic items. They are all relics from the Masters war. The magic item each character has was either found in the unexplored ruin of a city, handed down as a family heirloom, or stripped off the dead body of someone you killed. Or you saw someone in a fight, waited till one of them was dead and ambushed the survivor, taking it off his corpse. What I'm trying to say is that your magic item is not a waste of money, whatever it is. It's something that if someone knew you had it, and thought they stood a fair chance of killing you, they would probably try and do you in. Think of it this way. You're 4th level. The highest level you will reach is 6th. You're almost in the top third of the most powerful people in the world and you only have one magic item. Think about how important that item would be to a character. Whatever it does it gives them an edge, an increased chance for survival. And for many people that's the only thing that matters. [/QUOTE]
