While were rudely pointing out other peoples failings, whirlwind attack needs dex 13, and he already said he had dex 12, so while your up on your high horse, try not to fall of eh?
Also, as he has gone down the route of using the trip feat, he would be denied this using whirlwind attack in 3.5, again making it whirlwind attack kinda pointless wiht the amount of feats it would take to get it.
I still stand by knockdown over whirlwind attack, unles your using 3.0, in which case, although the reach wont do you any good, it can be combined wiht knockdwon and improved trip, to take out up to 8 opponents surrounding you

Yes, and you're post is the first time anyone has mentioned 3.0 in this thread. So I assumed that we were discussing 3.5. I'm sorry if it seems hard to you, but it only takes a few seconds to pick up your PHB or check out one of the several online SRDs to read a feat before posting about something when you're having a rules discussion, especially one about a single feat. "I think I kinda remember" really isn't a valid stance to start a post from.Caliban said:
Because I was rebutting the posters comment about whirlwind attack not allowing reach to work. This had nothing to do with the feat actually working in the OP's build (which I can see it doesn't) and everything to do with correcting an incorrect statement that wouldn't have been made if the poster took half a minute to look up the feat before complaining that it didn't work the way someone else said it did.Nac_Mac_Feegle said:

Everyone makes mistakes and being so hard on someone doesn't help. In fact, you seem to not have read the spell descriptions for bless and bane in another thread. Should we slam you for it? No. Just point out the error and move on. Who knows, the person pointing out the error could be wrong or there could even be unforeseen debate.StormCrow42 said:
Edit: see, case in point.

Yes, feel free to call me out for missing out on that thread, although in my defense there I posted on the general implications of bonus/penalty stacking and got tripped up by the special interaction of bless/bane (esp. since I didn't really pay attention to the particular spells mentioned). There is arguably some difference between that and misrepresenting a single feat.Infiniti2000 said:Everyone makes mistakes and being so hard on someone doesn't help.

Edit: actually the other post is comparing Aid and Bane, so I did get it right afterall

Methinks you did, I didn't. But, nevertheless I still say its not really nice to slam people so hard. I really don't think you intended it, but unfortunately with the written medium and who-knows-who posting on the internet.... Ah well.StormCrow42 said:

14 Str gives +3 with a two-handed weapon (+2 x 1.5); you both got that right.
16 Str gives +4 with a two-handed weapon (+3 x 1.5, rounded down); you both got that wrong, with different answers

Bah, that'll teach me to make hasty corrections without double-checking the math

Oops, Sorry! I meant "Str 14 or 18". These are the optimal numbers for max damage with a two handed weapon (+3 and +6 damage respectively).
My fault!
