[QUOTE="Noldor Elf, post: 2195301, member: 746"] Seems to me that we have a winner: [I]Practiced Spellcaster[/I] I have to admit that the character is a little bit unfocused, I wanted to try rogue with some spellcasting (originally I though about Rogue/Bard), and Blackflame Zealot looked like an interesting PrC (which it is, although its not very powerfull) and I ended up as Rogue/Cleric. Because of the party composition and adventuring locations (Underdark) the character was forced into melee quite often, so spiked chain seemed to be good pick with highest finessable damage potential and reach made him quite effective anti-caster for couple of levels. My intention was to take MWP: Kukri just for PrC requirements and use the spiked chain. After our last adventure, however, the character received a flaming kukri, very fitting to the style, which would be more effective (damage vise) than chain. So, looking back from my current position, two-weapon fighting would have been better choice than Spiked Chain, since MWP: Kukri was a requirement for the PrC and the character does not have enough STR (or size) for tripping. Ok, I probably grab Practiced Spellcaster and enjoy the higher caster level the remaining couple of levels, I will have to leave the campaing anyway in couple of months. [/QUOTE]
