Re: Eagle Eyes MacGee

I should probably mention that I am looking at the Anarch (the Chaotic Neutral Paladin Variant in a 3.5 Dragon Magazine.) They get to turn constructs, but are pretty much like CN Paladins otherwise...

Re: Eagle Eyes MacGee

True, but you added Leadership into the mix!! ;) Power attack or Spirited Charge go by the wayside.

That and I wanted to be CN. (Damn goody two shoes blink dogs.)

Re: Eagle Eyes MacGee

Re: Eagle Eyes MacGee

When you are small on a medium mount, do you get the +1 from attacking from above? Just curious. I am slowly becoming disenchanted with the Sir Eppididimous character. :-(

Re: Eagle Eyes MacGee

Cavalier improves your mount as well, but Devoted Defender and Templar do not. Is Cavalier worth any investment?

Has the advancement of the small Cavalier changed since 3.0?

Re: Hide in Plain Sight ... and Frank's take on it.

Ah, but can you hide (with cover) and then sneak across a 120 foot open field in daylight (where there is no cover) to the wall of a castle while there are guards on the castle wall watching?

Is this possible?
