S@squ@tch's Against the Giants - Team Black OOC - Grinding

Sounds like a Sorcerer might fit in well. And it might even better if he had a level or two of Ranger and some talent with a bow? What do you think?

That would only semi step on my Ranger's toes. But he is a dedicated archer, so probably not too much.

So noted! The last thing I want to do is to step on your toes.

Maybe you could make another meatshield valiant defender, we seem to lack heavily armored guys. Maybe gnome giant slayer (there is PrC somewhere which allows fighting with two shields and gives extra bonuses against opponents larger then you are (which for gnomes is everyone but halflings and goblins ) )

I've seen that PrC, I think it's in the Complete Fighter or somewhere like that. The only problem is that my love of Gnomes generally stops short of committing suicide by playing midget fighters. How's about a halberd- or bastard sword-wielding human Paladin then?

Duskblade? Fighter BAB, long reach with polearm, spell added damage more then few times a day etc...for exchange of few hitpoints

 

[Leif]

Hmmm, thanks, Neurotic, I guess Duskblade might just work! I remember reading about them, but can't recall just where to find the PrC just now. Is that a PrC based off of the Rogue?

 

[Neurotic]

It's full base class from PHB II

I played a low-level Duskblade with a glaive, and was surprised at how effective he was. I'm not sure the effectiveness remains as you level up, but it might be worth a look. Though with that said, reach is somewhat limited against giants, since they tend to be able to reach you right back.

Ok, thanks! I looked at the class and that is just PERFECT!
