[QUOTE="Brekke, post: 1019485, member: 4369"] Here is my problem with this if we were playing 3.5 from the very start of this character then I would have planed things different. I would never have taken the third level of rogue at this time. I would have taken fighter and qualified for my PRC an entire level sooner. On the advice of my DM and more experianced players I was told take the third level of rogue now with the fact that you only wear leather armor uncanny dodge is so useful. I was building a Legolas type archer and I wanted to be able to tumble and climb and have decent balance and my character is a member of a secret society in Kalamar I needed sense motive and bluff which was why I took any levels of rogue. My feelings is that if 3.5 changes how you would have done something then your DM needs to work with you on the change. If not giving me uncanny dodge then allow me to go back and take the level of fighter. I am not the only one unhappy in the group the player playing the druid had a concept based on the beastmaster she has three animal compaions now she has been told to get rid of two. This changes her whole concept and her background story. She is going to retire the character and build something different. This is not the only character of mine being changed because of 3.5 my gnome illusionist/mechanist in Dragonstar just started taking XP penalties because of illusionist no longer being the favored class for gnomes. This is really no biggie because I would have choosen even if the penalties had been there from day1. My point is that with the changes I think there needs to be some give and take on players and DMs part. Carol [/QUOTE]
