Message: <blockquote data-quote="Saeviomagy" data-source="post: 798851" data-attributes="member: 5890">First up, if all you wanted to do was wield a few swords, then a single level of fighter does you just fine.Next up, unless your character was a total of 25 levels previously, you were most likely done over on levels for that ECL of yours.Finally, it really sounds like you dove in at the deep end of 3rd ed, and in a really really bad "there wasn't any water in the pool and I jumped from 5 stories up" way. In your particular predicament, there are certain feats which are superior. The predicament is "I'm 27th level and never had to go through any of the previous levels".What does that mean? Well, apart from not really knowing the capabilities of your character, you and the players around you were all free to take feats and abilities to succeed at high levels in place of feats and abilities (and items) which you needed as you were going up levels. For certain types of characters, this can mean a huge power boost (ie - if you took item creation feats for your character, but just converted over your old gear, then in this situation, it would be a weaker choice than some other feat).Incidentally, what is your ECL race?Finally thresher - if you want to be a specific type of caster (in your case, it seems to be 'generalist wizard damage machine'), then of course there is likely to be a set group of feats which every caster of that ilk should get. If you were aiming for being a master summoner, that would change. In 2nd ed, the two casters would be identical. If both Joe and Bob wiz want to be good at the same exact thing, of course they'll look identical.</blockquote>
