[QUOTE="Spencemeister, post: 1954847, member: 27614"] I would really like an answer to this question as I am considering this PC as well. I couldn't find any mention of the issue in errata at wizards.com, but I did google it and found the following conversation posted on [url]www.fellowship.no[/url] The suggestions make sense, and I am going to propose them to the DM of my current campaign. Any new info available? Spencemeister Originally posted by VagrantPretzel Ehm...I hate to interrupt this heated discussion with a slightly, marginally unrelated topic, but i have a question that desperately needs posing, and Sonofapreacherman just -might- have the credentials to answer it. :-P Why does the invisible blade require Far Shot and Point Blank Shot if he's a melee man? No imposition at all. Moreover, I'd hardly consider it a heated debate. Engaging perhaps, but not heated. As for the prerequisites, the 5-level invisible blade that first appeared in Dragon (and then recently in The Complete Warrior) was edited down from my original 10-level progression. The abilities and text are the same, but there were some additional dagger throwing abilities built into the prestige class as well (to round it out). The editors at Dragon had asked me to change the invisible blade prerequisites to reflect their ranged-based abilities, but when they later changed the invisible blade into a 5-level prestige class (and removed the dagger throwing abilities), they likely forgot to change the prerequisites as well. To use the printed version of the invisible blade as is, simply change the prerequisites feats to: Weapon Focus (dagger, kukri, or punching dagger) and Weapon Finesse. I hope that helps. [/quote:2a1e995a72] I suggest that we change the prerequisites to the following: * Weapon Focus (dagger, kukri, or punching dagger) * Weapon Finesse * Combat Expertise The latter is a prerequisite to the feat Improved Feint which the Invisible Blade gains automatically. What do you think? [/QUOTE]
