Spiked chain tactics

[Liquidsabre]

Pick up Boots of Steadfastness(steadiness?) from the Arms and Equipment Guide. For 6,000 gp you're immune to trips and bull rushes.

Yeeeaaaa, I'd always independently cross-check the prices in the A&EG (a 3.0 book). So many of them are underpriced and off that it usually requires reworking to price the items correctly for balanced gameplay. The blindfold of true darkness for 9k for example is way underpriced for the blindsight 60-feet, compare this to the 3.5 DMG's Goggles of Night that grants darkvision 60-feet for 12k. Yea, all item-pricing that comes out of the A&EG is considered fouled up until proven innocent in our game group.

aah! the spiked chain. a favorite of mine! and a must for favored souls of kossuth!
One of those Faerun supplements (Shining South AFAIR) has an armor enchantment option that grants +5 on checks against trip, bull rush and overrun for 5 grand, resp. +10 for 15k. my girlfriend's trippin', spiked chain-swinging nentyar hunter makes good use of that one. and yes, she used to like "enlarge" being cast upon her, too. but now she's able to cast the grown up-version (Righteous Might) herself.
