[QUOTE="Dragonblade, post: 3980906, member: 2804"] So I'm looking for combos that my Warblade can use (currently 11th level). I focus mostly on Iron Heart and Diamond Mind with some Stone Dragon maneuvers. I'm more of a heavy armored tank fighter so I didn't go with Tiger Claw, or White Raven. Also if you know some crazy broken combos, I'd love to see those as well (even if they aren't Warblade specific). The most ridiculous combo I can come up with is for a 20th level Warblade character and does 200+ points of damage (around 500 if you are also 10th level Eternal Blade!): ----------------- Requires: Haste, The Diamond Mind maneuver that gives you two full attack actions (sorry, I don't have my book so I can't recall the exact name), Combat Rhythm (from a feat in ToB), Diamond Nightmare Blade maneuver. Round 1: Have Haste cast on you, or activate it yourself via potion or item Round 2: Use your Diamond Mind maneuver to take 2 full attack actions (with Haste thats 10 attacks). Use combat rhythm so that all your attacks are touch attacks that do no damage. If all 10 attacks hit that gives you +50 to damage in the next round. Round 3: Use Diamond Nightmare Blade to make a single attack that does (regular damage +50) x4. So you will do 200 points of damage minimum. Round 4: Follow up with Perfect Strike for +100 damage if your opponent is still alive. If you are a 10th level Eternal Blade, the combo is even sicker. Take the Sudden Recovery feat. Round 1: Have Haste cast on you, or activate it yourself via potion or item Round 2: Use your Island in Time Class ability to take your entire turn as an immediate acction. Use your Diamond Mind maneuver to take 2 full attack actions (with Haste thats 10 attacks). Use combat rhythm so that all your attacks are touch attacks that do no damage. Then as a swift action, use Sudden Recovery to get back your Diamond Mind maneuver and do another 10 attacks. The next round you get +100 damage to every attack if all your touch attacks hit! Round 3: Use Diamond Nightmare Blade to make a single attack that does (regular damage +100) x4. So you will do 400 points of damage minimum and probably close to 500 points or more. You could also just rely on your Haste and make 5 attacks, each one doing +100 points of damage. Of course, instead of doing this combo, you could just your Diamond Maneuver and Island in Time to pull off 20 attacks in a single round, 8 of which will be at your highest attack bonus. Thats nasty enough just by itself. You can also do Perfect Strike, use Sudden Recovery and then do Perfect Strike again the next round. Might be more efficient than my combo unless you use the Eternal Blade version. ----------- Anyone else have any really good ones? [/QUOTE]
