[QUOTE="Joker, post: 2861176, member: 826"] I made a feat for the Tower Shield and would like to know what you guys think. It's pretty straightforward. Improved Tower Shield Proficiency Prereq's: Strength 15, Bab+6, Tower Shield Prof Benefits: When using a Tower Shield in combat you ignore the -2 penalty to attack normally associated with it's use. I was thinking of a Greater Tower Shield Prof but I don't know which route to take. Either a feat allowing you to make make a single attack at a -2 or -5 penalty while using it as cover. This would have as prereq's Str 17, Bab +11 and Dex 13. You can also make AoO while using it for cover. Or the Greater feat would grant some kind defense against magic. I don't know what exactly but as prereq's I think it would be Spellcraft 5 ranks, Int 13 and also Bab +11. I was thinking it could either (limited amount of times per day, either once or equal to INT mod) deflect a targeted spell in a random direction when it is employed as cover or maybe when used as cover grant the AC bonus to a save against targeted and area-effect spells. But those seem kinda potent. What do you think? Go ahead, rip me a new one :p. (Ooh, I thought of something deliciously kinky. For the magical protection version it would also have as prereq the Magebane feat. But not the one from Complete Arc but the one I made which adds your Bab to the Casting Defensively DC. Well, now that that's writting, I actually think it's rather unkinky. Oh well.) [/QUOTE]
