[MotW] Tempest details?

[Klaus]

I have a ranger PC in my game, and he's building a Two-Weapon style character, so I think this PrClass might be the thing for him, but it'll be a while before I actually SEE MotW down here. Anyone can give me a glimpse of what this PrC offers, or what are the PreReqs?

Gracias!

BAB +9
Ambidex 2wpnfighting Dodge Mobility Spring attack - Weapon Finesse OR Weapon Focus -

You get Improved 2 Weapon 1st level.... offhand parry+2 2nd level... then better offhand parry+4 4th level... Greater two weapon in 5th... and so forth.

Good Fort save d10

Its an OK prestige... nothing great especially for a +9 BAB requrement

As Rashak Mani says. It's a fairly bland PrC, since the focus is on two-weapon fighting and absolutely nothing else. At 19th level, the Tempest gets 8 attacks a round (4 with each hand), which isn't half bad, but there's not much else to recommend it.

Well, there IS getting rid of that Pesky -2/-2 penalty at 8th level Tempest - though Hardly something you want to spend 8 levels of your life just to get...

But I will say one thing - Forget what Sean Reynolds said in the FRCS. The first time I saw this class, the word "Drizzt" was emblazoned in red ink across the class flavor text description for me.

Drizzt has fighter/barbarian/tempest/ranger written all over him. The only thing I do not like about this class is the +9 BAB. It's a little too high for the advantages it gives, IMHO.

Drizzt = Ftr5 / Bar1 / Rgr3 / Tempest6 (or maybe even Tempest 8 to 10)?

Dude the +9 bab is to justify getting Imp 2 Wpn, which also requires +9 bab... Think about it.

I am actually creating an 8th level charater that will be taking Tempest at 10th and I am really liking where everyting is going...
