Off To War... Recriutment/Discussion

[Dragonwriter]

HM, due to Jareth’s level-up and your allowances concerning “tweaking” classes, I’d like to know if I could swap the Duskblade 2nd-level bonus feat “Combat Casting” for something else… I was thinking Power Attack, if that’s alright with you.

I will post the update and then alter the sheet later, probably after I get a full response on this. Thanks!

 

[HolyMan]

Swapping feats is allowed just make note in your advancments post.

i.e. 2nd lvl Duskblade: granted, Combat Casting - swap for Power Attack

Glad to have you back and great post in the IC btw

Will be moving things along shortly, I think everyone is ready.

quick question. i use to have access to lots of material but its all gone now that my bro has moved out and took all the books with him. i use to have a weapon master prestige classed fighter and i was hoping to build my current fighter in that direction (idk if we will ever get far enough but regardless its a good build even without the class) does someone have sword and fist and could post the prerequisites for the class for me?

Sword and Fist is a 3.0 book, IIRC. This is a 3.5 game. You may want to double check with HM if he's allowing material from that book. If that's already happened and I missed it, feel free to ignore me.

Notes

• Requires Hordes of the Underdark.
• It is not possible to create a Weapon Master with unarmed or a ranged weapon.
• Because of the prerequisite feats associated with this Prestige Class, a Dexterity and Intelligence score of 13 is required.
• Although unspecified in the manual or in the game description, it is possible to take a second Weapon of Choice at Weapon Master Level 13+. This is done as a bonus feat as long as you have Weapon Focus in the 2nd weapon thus fulfilling all the prerequisites.
• Weapon Master and Shadowdancer are the only classes lacking the generic class skills craft weapon, craft trap, craft armor as well as concentration and Parry (all are cross-class skills).
• Although the ultimate specialist in a single weapon, Weapon Masters cannot take Weapon Specialization and Epic Weapon Specialization without taking at least 4 Fighter levels. One Fighter or Champion of Torm epic level must be taken for Epic Weapon Specialization, leaving room for 29 Weapon Master levels. The last weapon master bonus feat and AB increase is at level 28, so not much is lost by going that route.

Now I googled that up and found the requirements but to me that looks like a fast, light armored, hits alot but little damage fighter.

The build I see for Onesimus is heavy armored, heavy damage, hits you once and you know it. (poor gnolls)

I have np with 3.0 stuff it will probably be weaker than 3.5 but I say we try and build different types of weapon masters (but keep the base)

Weapon Master A: Weapon Focus, Combat Expertise
Weapon Master B: Weapon Focus, Power Attack
Weapon Master C: Weapon Focus, Point Blank Shot

The types of warriors are endless of course it just has to be what you prefer.

Think on it, we can build a new prestige class as we go.

Okay, I'm finished with the level-up info. I posted my alterations in a second post in the RG, and I'm also putting them here for ease of access. Once I get the okay from you, HM, I'll update Jareth's sheet.

[sblock=Jareth Level 2 Changes]

Fort and Will saves increase to +3.
Gain one more 0-level spell per day (total 4/day) and one more 1st-level spell per day (total 4/day). Learn new 1st-level spell (Burning Hands).

All looks good to me DW, go ahead and fix your stats and add one more thing to your character sheet. Since I don't have all the books new things need to be included so if I NPC you I know what you can do so add this:

[sblock=Arcane Attunement]Starting at 1st level, a duskblade learns to use dancing lights, detect magic, flare, ghost sound, and read magic as spell-like abilities. You can use these powers a combined total of times each day equal to three plus your Intelligence modifier. These powers don't count against your number of spells known or against the spells you can cast each day. [/sblock]

Thanks and 20 hp now hmmm....

HM

 

[Dragonwriter]

Okay, done. And I added the Arcane Attunement description in the post.

C'mon, now... Don't do anything too mean...
Jareth is by no means a legit meat-shield. He's (at best) a skirmisher...

And it's one of the few times IC hasn't given me some crap roll...

Your asking this of the DM who tried to have an assassin vine encounter while the group was climbing down a cliff??? HUH?? (that would have been so sweet )

And it's one of the few times IC hasn't given me some crap roll...

I would take bad rolls for a month for max hp any day. Good luck in your next combat.
