Ok guys, if you were making a lvl 10 black guard what magic items would you eqiup him

[SuperFlyTNT]

with? I wanted to snag an "unhlly-avenger" (holy-avenger but abilities reversed) but the DM said no. I want something that will protect me from psychic intrusions as another player is going to be an ilithid. Any suggestions?

What's his total level? Is he a 10th level character or a 16th level character, blackguard 10/fighter 6 or something?

Yeah. The DM said no, because a Holy Avenger (and thus, the UNHoly Avenger) costs nearly three times the ENTIRE starting wealth of a 10th level character.

A sword of life stealing would run you most of your cash, but would also deal negative levels to anyone you hit, and give you back HP on a critical hit.

Alternatively, a sword of subtlety gives you bonuses to sneak attacking.

Or a just plain old unholy weapon.

Oops, sorry... Its a lvl 10 black guard. HeHe. It basically sounds like you can exchange your palidin lvls for black guard lvls... Iether way I got it by the dm and just made lvl 10 charecter with 10 lvls in black guard. What do you think?

What do you think?

I think you did it wrong. A level 10 blackguard needs to have at LEAST a BAB of 6. Assuming you're not doing funny things with character races, that means a fighter 6, or more appropriately, Paladin 6, before you can even consider taking Blackguard levels.

If the DM let you do it like that, that's between you two, but the rules say no.

11 or more: A fallen paladin of this stature immediately gains a blackguard level for each level of paladin he trades in.

You can't trade paladin levels for blackguard levels unless you're a (ex)paladin of 11th level or higher... with less levels that that you simply get a few extra abilities.

So you'd be Ex-Paladin 6/Blackguard 4 which would give you Smite Good an extra time per day, and lay on hands, as well as the blackguard abilities you'd get for being a 4th level blackguard. The Lay on Hands only uses your blackguard levels x cha mod, not your blackguard + paladin levels btw.

I think (thought I'm not psychic) is that he and his DM have made the Blackgaurd Prc into a core class, something akin to an Anti-Paladin. As it should be INNSHO .

Then again I could be wrong, but that is so far removed from the realm of possibilities that I'm not even gonna consider it .

This is the correct motorcycle. We basically made it that when you become black guard your paladin lvls convert to anti palidin. Like you switched deities. I dont get those extra abilities though....

Well, in that case, like I said. An unholy, +1 longsword would cost you 18,315, and be appropriate. A suit of +1 mithril shadowed, silent moves, full plate would run you 19150 gp. That gives you 11535 to spend on other weapons, sheilds, magic items.
