[QUOTE="alcoholander, post: 5691572, member: 87534"] We’re starting a Forgotten Realms campaign (The Moon Sea region) at 4th level in which I’m playing a Barbarian (28 point buy, all books allowed). There are 3 other players in the party but they haven’t chosen yet their classes. I’m planning to go into the Runescarred Berserker PrC at 7th level and this is the build I’ve come up with: Race: Human Barbarian4/Fighter2/Runescarred Berserker10/open Stats : Str 16 Con 15 +1 at 4th level Dex 12 Wis 12 +1 at 8th and 12th level Cha 8 Int 10 Feats : 1st: Survivor, Intimidating Rage 3d level: Instantaneous Rage 5th level: Power Attack 6th level: Ettercap Berserker, Iron Will 9th level: Reckless Rage 12th level: open 15th level: open Skill Tricks: Never Outnumbered My idea is to be something more than a straightforward butcher. I imagine my hero all scarred with spells’ writings on his body scaring the :):):):) out of his foes when raging (we are using Intimidate with strength as a base ability variant rule). I also like pretty much the ability of the Runescarred Berserker to be a tank/melee fighter and in the same time to be able to cast some nice spells when needed: 1st level: Divine Favor, True Strike, Protection from Evil, See Invisibility 2nd level: Keen Edge, Darkvision, Invisibility, Protection from Elements 3d level: Freedom of Movement, Death Ward, Cure Critical Wounds 4th level: Righteous Might, Restoration, Stoneskin 5th level: Antimagic Field, Dimensional Door Items: Cloak of Resistance 1000 gp Chainshirt 100 gp Greatsword +1 2350 gp Triple weapon capsule retainer (450 gp) with Quickflame, Quickfrost, Quickspark (75gp) I would appreciate your suggesting what should be changed or added to my build as well as what items should I buy (starting gold is 4k).
