[QUOTE="Thanee, post: 5001743, member: 478"] So, not a Gish (what a horrible word), after all. Good, good. ;) Err, IIRC you won't qualify for Abjurant Champion that way (or do you plan to start with Eldritch Knight to get your BAB up to shape)? You could go with Fighter 1 Wizard 4 Runesmith 2 Spellsword 1 Abjurant Champion 5 That's 13 levels already. While the Spellsword's special ability is pretty much useless for you, it's still a +1 BAB +2 Fort/Will +d8 hp level up, which isn't bad at all, and most importantly bridges the gap to gain entrance to the Abjurant Champion. Starting with a level of Fighter really adds a LOT of survivability for the early levels. I have some experience with that (though, I prefer Barbarian/Sorcerer, but the basic concept is comparable :)). As for feats, there is one you definitely want as soon as you qualify: Arcane Strike Other than that, I would probably take Power Attack (just because it's always great to have) and then either more combat feats or spellcasting feats, depending on what you want to do more (using spells to buff and then melee, or using spells as direct attacks as well). For higher levels, the Minor Shapeshift feat from Complete Mage is very nice (temporary hit points most every round). Bye Thanee [/QUOTE]
