Help me build a warforged

[freebiewitz]

Ok here's what I'm thinking, Im trying to build a warforged commander type character, Basically what I have in mind is that all the spells revolve around contructs somehow, whether its to damage them, repair them or otherwise, fire is a good start but Im thinking of somthing along the lines of a warforged that can have an army of contructs, think druid with less claws and more rust.

1) Well, I can't point you directly at it, but I know someone published some rules for Warforged spellcasters (esp. Druids) to get Construct versions of the critters they get as familiars, animal companions, mounts or even called with Summon spells, "mechanical" wildshapes, and the like.

2) Besides Druid, I'd consider the Paladin, the Battle Sorcerer (Unearthed Arcana) and Marshall (Miniatures Handbook) for a Warforged in the Commander role.

3) With a willing DM, you could have a Warforged with any class with the Spellfire feat, but H-Red so that the "healing" function of Spellfire instead is a "repair" power. IOW, it would only work with Constructs- a jumpstart, if you will.

Warforged Psion.

Powers~
1st level: Astral Construct (shaper) - create construct minions of "Summon level" 1 - 9.
2nd level: Psionic Repair Damage (shaper) - self healing in an other-wise "wizard-like" class.
4th level: Metamorphosis (egoist) - Amusingly enough, when you change form you do not lose benefits from feats...

Feats~
Adamantine Body (ECS): Quite simply an awesome Warforged feat. See metamorphosis above.
Boost Construct (XPH): more menu options for your Astral Constructs (ACs).
Durable Construct (Complete Psi): ACs last 10min instead of normal duration.


I've played this race/class combo a couple times now, and it has proven to be quite potent.

Ooooh sounds pretty good, which book is this btw? If its in races of Ebberon then I'm blind o.o I don't own a copy but my friend does so I borrow it from him, anyhow.

The astral construct abily sounds pretty nifty, summoning multiple allies in one go is exactly what I was hoping for, not expecting but still great, my other question is if there is a higher level version of that summon spell and how long these contructs last.

That's because a Psion anything is rigged. It's an awesome class. Personally, I think it's OPed, but I use them for my antagonists sometimes.

You wouldn't think it, but an artificer isn't a bad option, especially if you're a warforged. There's also always the Juggernaut option

Techsmith: Forg. Realm. Faith and Panth. Pg206

Gain Mechanical Cohort and extra mechanical based powers 10 levels

Prereq overlap with effigy master below. 9 ranks of a craft skill (metal working overlaps with effigy master); Feat Craft Wond., Skill Focus (Craft list of 4); Ability to cast Minor Creation; Patron diety gond; special must visit lantan

Effigy Master: Complete Arcane Pg30.

5 levels of construct making goodness.

Prereqs are kinda weird. 10 ranks of a craft skill, 5 ranks Know. (Arc), 5 SpellC., 2 Use M. Dev.; Feat Craft Wond.; Have Simulacrum on class spell list (Sor/Wiz 7) You do not have to be able to cast the spell just has to be on class spell list.

Still cannot get either in time to get full progression of both. 7th level for Techsmith and 8th for Effigy Master

Now I'm gonna build one and see what I can come up with

Juggernaut? Aren't those the giant dumb warforged? I didn't think we could play those.... w8 I think I'm getting mixed up with somthing else....

I've been wanting to play a Warforged Juggernaught Battlesorcerer or Sorcerer...but nobody will let me play a Warforged.
