I like the idea of the new exotic weapon master.[br]I like a lot of the weapon tricks he can do[br][br]But why limit it to jhust Exotic weapons?[br][br]I mean, it doesn't even make sense.[br]Why is it you can only really master a weapon that is so bloody hard to use that most peoiple can't hit with ...

Arms and Equipment Guide even has a type of dog which can clumb (Called, believe it or not, the Climbdog) so there's literally nowhere a small mounted combattant cannot go that a medium sized person can

True enough. As I said, it looked good for fighting constructs and undead, but probably wasn't ideal.

LOL, well for me it would depend on thew character.[br][br]If you plan on being a weapon and shield user, then a -1 to AC isn't that big of a deal, just use a heavy shield and you still come out ahead.[br]Plus of course, the weapon stacks with specialization, so you can have both :wink:[br][br]But I...

The Complete warrior offers a line of "Bastard" weapons. Exotic in one hand, martial in both. They have hammer, rapier, and pick cersons that are all fairly predictable and all kinda lame in the same way that waraxes and bastard swords are.[br][br]They cost a feat and you get 1 point of da...

What am I, a WizO?

The platinum armor is light, so it works with it. Though I suppose I should mention that the 10th level version would work no matter what you're wearing since you don't have to be mobile.[br][br]Anyhow, as to the armor bonus <shrug> It's *free*[br][br]It's not like it's impossible to go and get your...

Well, after some discussion and, well, prodding, from Maj I've decided to post my alternate alternate Vassal of Bahamut.[br][br][br] The Vassal of Bahamut [/b] [br][br] Requirements [/i][br]To qualify as a Vassal of Bahamut, a character must fulfill all the following criteria.[br][br] Alignment: Law...

No strangers gushed over me
Ah well, fame is fleeting <goes back to thinking nobody knew who I was>

My brother does calligraphy as a hobby, he's not bad.

I bet Arabic with its graceful curvy letters lends itself naturally to it. Sort of a skill synergy thing

Ah, so he does. His domains change every time he's printed, so forgive me there <chuckles> Luck bonus fits just fine.

I like the reasoning for the fire immunity, but I still think a breath weapon immunity woudl be more fitting. But that's me.

I like it. It's a really neat spin. [br]The luck bonus to saves is neat. I'm not sure how weell it fits with Bahamut though. I might consider some kind of smite ability akin to the PK, but with less suck in its place, but that's me. [br][br]I like the magic affinity, that's pretty cool. [br][br]Thou...

<shrugs> Class abilities can be plot hooks too. Suddenly recieving training in an exotic weapon shouldn;t happen overnight. Maybe you had nto look for a great master to instruct you?[br][br]<shrug> As I said, it's an unusual class ability, but I don't think it's bad.[br][br]What would you replace it...

1070650423[/unixtime]]Oddly enough... I'd like to point out that in discussing whether or not you are indebted to Bahamut, Galahad and I switched points of view and began arguing each other's point:[br][br]By saying that you are indebted to Bahamut, and that you will suffer loss upon collection of ...

Really? That's news to me.

<shrugs> Then I guess they don;t come and collect if you break your vows.

Yeah, I can;t wait to ridicule it!
Uh...I mean, 'critique'

That's different though.[br][br]It;s not a case of "You weren't good today, so you don't get any money" it's a case of "You already have the money, and you've been bad...give it back. All of it, every dime of it. Not just for last time, but since we met."[br][br]In this case if, ...

Well, yes.[br]Except for the part that says this...[br] If the money is spent frivelously or unwisely, Bahamut sends a loyal representative [...] to demand repayment. [br][br]Likewise, if you break your vows you no longer qualify for the class, which means the money, as a class ability, is lost. Pre...

:wtf:[br][br]Honestly, Frank...you;re grasping at straws here, and completely misunderstanding what I'm saying.[br][br]The guideline isnpt a RULE![br]Bu its very nature, what with it being a *guideline* it is subject to subjective use by the DM. You're the one arguing that you can't keep the money, ...

1070602614[/unixtime]]GK - so your basic point is that the DM can change things as he sees fit, and is well within his rights to let you walk off free and clear with 9000 gold worth of platinum whether or not you take this class.[br][br]This is true. Trivially so. It's called the Oberoni Fallacy - ...

So, in short: If the character gets too big for his brithces then the DM has the *option* of reducing treasure awards to mantain average wealth. The same option applies to every character.[br][br]But nowhere does it say that the DM *must* keep all his players exactly on average. The wealth by level ...

Since I've established that the vassal's cash isn;t treasure, that means it must be wealth. The only thing I found on wealth in the DMG is a paragraph that reads: [br][br] One of the ways in which you can maintain measurable control on PC power is by strictly monitoring their wealth, including their...

If the ability sais "A treasure of platinum pieces equal to 100gp per character level appears" then I could now see how that would fall under the *guidelines* on average treasure and whatnot.

But, it's not called a treasure, thus it is not treasure

1070600090[/unixtime]] There's a difference between treasure and a class ability. [br][br]Not when the class ability is just a pile of treasure.[br][br]-Username17 [br][br]Could you define treasure for me?[br]If it;s just coins then any time a rogue steals someonels coin purse, an orc destined to e...

1070599530[/unixtime]]So instead, if you can't pay them back because you've invested your money in something and don't have any liquid funds, you either get your ass kicked by some dragons, or you have to kill them, which ruins any attempt you had at redeeming yourself and getting back into the cla...
