[QUOTE="Scotley, post: 5807103, member: 11520"] I think the question is which class is Scotley not playing. I'm playing the Battle Herald Prestige class. Which required me to take a level of bard, a level of Cavalier and I choose to focus on straight up fighter. So, I've only taken one level of Cavalier and I expect to focus on Battle Herald for the next several levels. Since I only lightly dipped into Cavalier it won't step on my toes at all for you to go there. I normally pick one or two classes and stick with them so this is something of an experiment for me. I can count the number of prestige classes I've played over the years on one hand. I started with the role and concept and worked backward on classes where ever it took me and it turns out that it took me down a pretty twisted path. A little advice since you are new to EN World. JA is ostensibly running a Pathfinder game, but in truth he still plays a sort of seat of the pants/balls out 1e style the way we did back in the 80's with little focus on the rules and more of a focus on 'tell me what you want to do and roll some dice and we'll see what happens'. Something a little closer to the vision EGG had for the game in the early days, IMHO. JA likes players who make things happen. Of course that often means giving us enough rope to hang ourselves. He doesn't hand you an adventure on a silver platter, your character has to take the crumbs he tosses out and figure out what to do with them. He's not afraid to take what we as player give back and run with it. [/QUOTE]
