[QUOTE="Shirt Guy John, post: 160399, member: 2356"] The name might be misleading, so here's a brief discription: ----------------------------------------------- The Master of the Blade has perfected the art of combat using the Heavy Recurved Blade(Look Below). He learns to fight using just this one weapon, and he learns to do it very, very well. Short, I know, but I'm pressed for time. I wanted a variant version of the Weapon Master PrC from S&F, because I didn't think that that PrC represented what I wanted to do with the class. BAB: As fighter (1/1) Saves: As Rogue (Reflex high) HD: d8 Skills: 2 + Int. modifier per level Balance, Climb, Intimidate, Jump, Listen, Move Silently, Spot, Tumble. Special: 1-Superior Weapon Focus, Style Restriction 2-Improved Dodge, Rapid Cut 3-Dodge Bonus +1 4-Improved Specialization 5-Deadly Blade +1 6-Dodge Bonus +2 7-Improved Critical 8-Improved Expertise 9-Dodge bonus +3 10-Deadly Blade +2 Superior Weapon Focus: Additional +1 when using Heavy Recurved Blade Style Restriction: When using shield or in armor other than light, loses all abilities except superior weapon focus, improved Critical, and Superior weapon specialization Improved Dodge: Dodge bonus increases to +2 against the chosen foe Rapid Cut: Can make an additional attack at highest BAB but all atacks suffer -2 (only in full attack action) Dodge Bonus: Gains this dodge bonus to AC at all times Improved Specialization: Additional +2 damage Deadly Blade: Once per day, when a threat is rolled, the Blade Master may choose to use this ability. If the threat proves to be a critical hit, the critical multiplier for her heavy recurved blade is increased by +1 (x2 to x3). If the threat does not prove to be a full critical hit, the use is wasted for the day. At tenth level the increase to critical multiplier increases to +2 (x2 to x4) but the ability is still only usable once per day. Improved Critical: gains the feat or adds =2 to the crit range if already has the feat Improved Expertise: Adds +1 and a half for every -1 taken to attack ============================== Heavy Recurved Blade(Medium Exotic Melee) Dm: 1d8 slashing Crit: 18-20/x2 Weight: 5 lbs. Cost: TBD Requirement for PrC: --------------------------- BAB +6 Focus, Specialization, Proficiency with Heavy recurved Blade, Dodge, Expertise I think that's it. Suggestions? Questions? [Edit: Fixed Deadly Blade, added Skills and HD] [/QUOTE]
