[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 2919379, member: 19675"] Ok, a longtime buddy of mine is starting up a new campaign, and surprised me by [I]probably[/I] allowing the use of non-PHB base classes. I have chosen to play [B]Blitz Magnussen[/B], a human Warmage, with an eye towards multiclassing with 2 Ftr levels and some Eldritch Knight. I haven't played a Warmage before, but here is my vision: I'm thinking he'll have a lot of James Tiberius Kirk in him...possibly a little Flash Gordon and Zap Brannigan thrown in for good measure. He'll be charismatic, a lady-killer, impetuous & brash...some might also call him foolhardy and insolent. Books allowed are Core 3 + Completes (no Psionics) + other on case-by-case approval. I don't know at this point if its pure homebrew or a published setting. If it is the latter, it may be Dark Company, but is more likely to be Greyhawk or Forgotten Realms. I like to plot my PCs growth over 20 levels to make sure I don't screw up qualifiying for a PrCl or to make sure the PC develops to fit my overall conception. Assuming War8/Ftr2/EK10, Blitz Magnussen should have 11 Feats. [B]Probable Feats[/B]: Reach Spell Split Ray Weapon Focus: Ranged Touch Spells Point Blank Shot Precise Shot Empower Spell Practiced Spellcaster Ranged Spell Specialization Arcane Strike Combat Reflexes Energy Substitution [B]Under Consideration/pending approval[/B]: Weapon Finesse Combat Casting Battlecaster Guided Spell ([I]DCv1[/I]) Exotic Weapon Proficiency Improved Unarmed Combat We haven't been told how stat generation will be handled, but with this concept, Charisma and Dexterity will be the high stats, with Wisdom being the probable dump stat. Depending upon books allowed- and which kewl mini I use- Blitz may be using a polearm or Maul. The question is this: would you change any of the choices on that Feat list? [/QUOTE]
