Re: smackdowns
how does sundering a weapon provoke a cleave? it says when you drop an enemy/opponent so unless it's some sort of dancing animated weapon you sunder it's not going to work.

And in the powergaming vein, I take pride in having 2 characters in a row nerfed because the DM's of online games didn't want them overpowered.
because that was his very first post on these boards, and he actually had the audacity to try to add to the Smackdown thread.1337 h4xor said:

Audacity? I'd call it inspired courage.
He read the thread, liked it, and gathered up his courage and/or his patience for signing up for membership, and tried his hand.
More posters the better. Those that don't do well can have improvements pointed out to them and may become better with time and/or revisions, those that DO do well add to our wonderful collection.
Good or bad, it's better posted than not. Posted at least serves a purpose.

I'm sure if you use Monte Cook's variant Psion from "If Thoughts Could Kill" you'd get even more PPs.
Psion/Meditant Smackdown (using If Thoughts Could Kill and The Mind's Eye)
Ok so this one doesn't do 200+ damage in one round but it can generate 4 DC 35+ Save or Die effects in one round.
Human Psion 9 (Savant)/Meditant 7 (From Wizards site)
Relevant starting stats 18 Con.
18 +4 from level, +6 Amulet of Health, +5 Manual =33 Constution (+11 modifier)
Primary Disipline Psychokinesis, Secondary Telepathy and Psychometabolic.
Feats: Extend Power, Psionic focus Psychokinesis, Greater Psionic Focus Psychokinesis, Psychic Meditation: Crown (+3 Natural Armor), Heart (+3 temporary hp per level max 42), Third Eye (+1 temporary PP per level), Solar Plexus (+2 to one save, +1 to others), Throat (+2 Int, Wis, Cha), Base (+2 Str, +2 Dex, +2 Con), Sachral (+3 to Primary disipline DC's, +1 to all others)
Intense Psychic Meditation (added to values of regular meditation): Sachral (+2 to Primary disipline DC's, +1 to all others), Third Eye (+1 temporary PP per level), Solar Plexus (+2 one save, +1 all others), Base (+2 Str, +2 Dex, +4 Con)
Meditation feats are activated by 1 minute of meditation and the effects last 2 hours.
Magic Items: Amulet of Health +6, Manual of Health +5, Torc of Psionic Might, Psionatrix of Psychokinesis x2.
Final PP: 228
Important Powers: Fission, Disintegrate, Schism
Start off by manifesting a Extended Fission (12 PP) (double has 108 PP) and hand double a Psionatrix of Psychokinesis.
Both sit down to meditate, gaining +3 Natual Armor, +42 temporary HP, +30 temporary PP, +4 to Reflex Saves, +2 to Fort and Will, +2 Int, Wis, Cha, +5 DC to Psychokinesis powers +2 to all others, and +4 Str, Dex, Con.
This gives your double a Con of 31 so its DC will be 1 lower then yours and 138 PP.
Find and unsuspecting enemy and during the suprise round both Manifest Schism.
1st Round both manifest a regular Disintegrate and a schism Disintegrate.
DC for your Disintegrate: 1d20 +11 Con, +5 Psychic Meditation, +4 Psionic Focus, +1 Psionatrix, +6 Power level = 1d20 +26
DC for your fission's Disintegrate: 1d20 +10 Con, +5 Psychic Meditation, +4 Psionic Focus, +1 Psionatrix, +6 Power level = 1d20 +25
Both of you still have enough PP to keep up the double Disintegrate for about 4 rounds.
Can anyone think of any improvements?
