[QUOTE="Nightbreeze, post: 4196430, member: 46755"] Well, I have to say that I was moving away from Iaijutsu master 20 anyway. After the first cool ability (the strike that no one notices), it offers almost nothing. And to say the truth, aside from Overwhelming Critical, Devastating Critical and Superior Initiative, I don't know what other epic feats I could take (any suggestion here?) I need a ruling over the Iaijutsu skill: it states that bonus dices are given "when you strike a flat footed opponent after unsheating the blade". Does that mean that even if I were able to make full round attack against a flat footed opponent, I can do only one iajutsu? It would be arguably broken (i add 230 or so bonus damage when I have the iaijutsu). Another question: could you clarify the 90pt build, one on one basis? Does that mean that I always spend one point to raise a skill, or what? If so, it is possible to have 18 in all of them, spening 60 pts...and the other 30 pts? As for the special thing...I don't know. I am thinking about rebuildin it as a Samurai 1/ Monk 6/ Shou disciple 5/ Iaijutsu Master 10 / ??? 8. I think I'll be developing it a little bit more before asking for the boon. My estimate is that I will have a hell of an AC (with improved combat expertise, could push it to 90 with the previous) , but a low damage output, except in the first strike. However, with speed I'll have 4 attacks at the highest attack bonus ( +2 with martial flurry, +1 with speed). Bah...may as well end up with asking something flavorfull. [/QUOTE]
