[QUOTE="Creamsteak, post: 1535715, member: 552"] Gestalt Fighter/Soulknife means even saves, right? That's pretty nice. I'll throw in the "items to round your character off" method. That would be, get a cloak of protection +3 or more to bring your saves up (especially since your going against wizards) to an even higher level. Then work on getting your ability scores up (boost your con with a +4 or better item or at least get a amulet of natural armor with a +2 or higher. If you don't use that item slot on con, then maybe a shielding amulet to stop magic missiles. If you can optimize like this, I'd say get a mithril full plate +2 instead of the breastplate. That will net you a better armor class in general. One of the great things about psionics is the skill boost items if you want them, and as your not a psi-warrior, you don't have access to the powers that perform those tricks. A +10 bonus to tumble and jump from items could be fun. A backup weapon for dealing with a type of Damage reduction would seem somewhat handy. Perhaps an aligned adamantine/silvered/or cold iron weapon that deals a different type of damage (piercing or bludgeoning) to keep in case it's ever handy. And, once again since your psionic, having a third eye item might be interesting. Lastly, you could be gifted with an item of +x to resist some element (fire or lightning likely). [/QUOTE]
