[QUOTE="(Psi)SeveredHead, post: 647267, member: 1165"] Torvo seems a little underequipped in the weapon department. He uses a two-handed weapon, so he probably doesn't have a shield. More money saved ;) The characters in Enemies and Allies have roughly appropriate gear for their level. I really don't like what they did to Lidda though - she's probably only the second rogue I've seen who doesn't use Weapon Finesse, and [i]she's a halfling![/i] The 15th-level fighter and barbarian in that book both enjoy a +6 Strength-boosting item. My 15th-level fighter (a PC that I DM, that is), who was made with 25 point buy, has a +2 keen flaming burst sword, made by another party member. (You can roll something like that on the treasure chart, but good luck just buying one.) Then puts a GMW on it. (That reliance on GMW got the cleric killed - a story for anotehr day.) He dishes out 100+ damage per round - [i]if[/i] he lands two crits in a row. An average hit does around 1d10+14 +1d6 damage, so that's about 22 damage per swing, more with Power Attack. That would be around 19-20 damage if it were just a +5 bastard sword. He crits on a 15-20, and with a flaming burst sword that's a fair amount of d10s. Incidentally, he didn't use the feat progression from the DMG or E&A. He took Spring Attack, and that feat alone has saved his life on multiple occasions. [/QUOTE]
