[QUOTE="Dingleberry, post: 1333981, member: 490"] Makes perfect sense - but the horse is already [i]miles[/i] from the barn. This is partly just to accommodate an early misunderstanding we had about 3.0 TWF. Nobody noticed until the poor guy was 3rd or 4th level (myself included) that TWF doesn't apply to ranged weapons. I already created a feat for this character (which he took around that time) which permits the whip to be used in this way (IIRC, the no AoOs thing is in both the Lasher and OotBI classes from S&F). I added it to the PrC to capture the same thing, though it doesn't help him (I didn't want it to be ENTIRELY customized for him :) ). A bow simply doesn't work with this class - it must be a one-handed ranged weapon: whip (obviously), thrown daggers or axes, shuriken, crossbow (though without a repeating xbow or some auto-reloading enchantment, it's a bad idea), javelins, etc. This limitation (and all those that go with it, e.g., ammunition and/or carrying capacity) is one of the key things I'm relying on to keep the PrC balanced. Normally, yes, but the ability is an exception to the rule. The same thing is in the Off-Hand Parry feat in S&F and MotW. That [i]would[/i] be a neat trick. :) [/QUOTE]
