Message: <blockquote data-quote="(un)reason" data-source="post: 6168467" data-attributes="member: 27780">Dragon Issue 329: March 2005part 7/7Class acts: Barbarians get Support your local Barbarian. A good spellcaster companion to buff you and provide backup is just what the doctor ordered. Sorcerer is particularly thematic for this. Bards get Using the Universal Language. Communicating intent by music alone might seem incredibly cheesy, but it can work. Here's some advice on determining the difficulties. How very amusing.Clerics get Tokens of faith II. Obviously this one's hit a seam that they can mine until they run out of portfolios, as they have more coming. So here's 8 more symbols and the minor benefits they grant. Druids get History of the Druids. More fluff we've seen done before, better, in more detail. Fighters get The Knifer. In a head on battle, knife fighter is a suboptimal choice. But they are very versatile, can be justified as tools, and there are lots of places you can't take bigger weapons. A fighter who specializes in them can be just about competitive in both hand to hand and missile fighting, and great in a city campaign. (I recommend combining this with the thug variant from UA. ) And there are several prestige classes to make you even more effective. A timely reminder.Monks get Principles of of the Monastic Code. Ahh, the joys of mystical mumbo jumbo that actually works. Makes all that meditation and celibacy worth it. Not like in the real world, where virtue has to be its own reward. :sigh:Paladins get Daydream Believers. Gnome paladin is another odd choice that can still work. Here's some advice as to the outlook of a "typical" gnome paladin. Riding a dire badger and with a ready quip as he smites evil, these guys definitely don't fall into the lawful dick category. It's rangers turn to get half a dozen flaws. They do seem to be following quite definite formulas for these. What will they do when they've all had a turn at each one? Rogues get The story so far. 4 more backgrounds, each with it's own minor benefit. You know the formula for this one by now as well. Sorcerers get the multiclass advice this month. A couple of levels in paladin works rather well. Fighter, monk and rogue can provide nice boosts to your survivability with a dip as well. Not too much though, as with any primary caster. Wizards get Swarm Familiar. What an evil idea. Instead of one pet, you can have a whole bunch of them. Fly, my prettys! Ahahahahaha! I very much like this idea. Nodwick steals from Homer's script.  Dork tower debunks some myths of their own. Zogonia fails their interaction with NPC rolls again. Yea, verily 'twas a pleasing issue to mine eyes. The columns departed replaced with articles of greater flavour, and the return to long-abandoned topics made for most pleasant reading. Alas, next month is once again the month of tomfoolery, and I fear young master Mona may not have had time to prepare a full issue of japes and pranks with which to lighten our spirits. Shall we proceed, my history-delving compatriots?</blockquote>
