[QUOTE="bigbaddragon, post: 3665548, member: 53881"] Hi all, I decided to play a knight and I'm tempted to try out mounted combat but being completely new to mounted combat thing I need a few (or more ... probably more) hints from you. Q1: Can you recommend me some good mounts (preferably flying) and the ways to obtain them (preferably something that a sane DM would allow say about level 10)? Q2: Can you recommend me some ways to max my mounted charge damage output (I plan on using knight's ability to make a lot of people attack only me and then run around the battlefield charging every round)? Q3: In PHB1 there are pictures of heavy lance and light lance but there is only one description and it mentions only lance (not light or heavy). So is there any difference at all? Q4: Is there some exotic equipment that would be particulary useful for mounted combatants and/or their mounts? Q5: Any other nonDropMountedCombat suggestion you can think of? Campaign setting is Eberron and almost all of the books are allowed except ToB. Char's race is human, and stats are: str 16, dex 12, con 14, int 13, wis 8, cha 16. Int is 13 because I'm also shooting at tripping build with reach weapon (this is for moments I cannot use mount or when the fight is indoors). I'll be able to pull this off because due to Dm's generosity we get some bonus feats. I'm also thinking about taking one level of marshal to improve my trip and PrCing into Soldier of Light (Deities & Demigods) for two levels in order to get turn undead (and thus qualify for divine feats) and divine grace. I would also ask you to name your sources for anything you suggest and, by doing so, make my life easier. Thanks in advance B-). [/QUOTE]
