Wow. Add Brambles (+6 dmg) or Spikes (double Threat range, +2 damage) to my list of buffs to Quicken. Problem with Spikes, however, is that it has a 1 round/level duration. For the record, you look WAY BELOW your Wealth by level: http://www.msen.com/~muffin/ADD/Chars/wealthbylevel.html suggests 6600...

Being a blender at level 6 is perfectly fine. This is the level where fighters can TWF with iterative BAB. Scoring 5 attacks at level 4 is a bit crazy. The only sure-fire way I can think of, non Tome, off the top of my head to do this is: TWF+Rapid Shot+Bite attack+Boot Blade. I would give him the a...

Extra Arms has a level 6 prereq, if I recall correctly. Also, if I recall correctly, this is for a damned good reason (the same level a fighter will be getting iterative attacks). You get (natural attacks) OR (weapon attacks AND (slam attack OR secondary natural)). Not both. Currently, this is 4 cla...

An Empowered Lesser Ord of Acid does (6d8) 27 damage on average at level 7, and allows to save or spell resistance. A level 3 fighter with 16 con has 10(first die)+9(con)+2d10 hp = average 30. 18 con puts that number at 33. The fighter has between 21 and 39 hp, and you will do between 6 and 48 damag...

http://www.geocities.com/televisioncity/2633/dontlike.wav Reasons: Variable action amounts per round. This means that you aren't sure if you'll be able to make it over and heal the fighter next round. Bad rolls. Wizard can't cast a spell this round because 'spell' is 3 action points. This doesn't ap...

Just like to say: False Life is a level 2 spell. It lasts 1 hour/level. The loss of a level 2 spell slot when you can cast level 5 spells is pretty insignificant (yes, levitate is useful, but you can't use any spell with a saving throw that isn't quickened from this category in a real combat). HP of...

Cleric is a pretty good bridge as well, being a divine fighter for a good number of levels. re-posted: http://rapidshare.com/files/227342785/Beguiler_Spell_Reference_v1.5.pdf.html The link contains every Beguiler spell, re-printed, and organized. Although about 90% of these are core, the reprinting ...

Out of curiosity, who here can tell me why Nystul's Magic Aura isn't similarly broken as Fabricate and Wall of Iron? It makes DMs hate you. Somehow at level 9 when you are selling perfectly normal iron to people, it is usually fine. The DM will have the iron market plummet (it should), and people w...

Combat School is banned, but Blitz-PBS is okay? So.. +2 to attack and damage for one weapon is broken, but +3 to attack +BAB+BAB to damage for all ranged weapons is fine. Ah, sorry, I didn't know that it was a fire-immune rat ogre ... Really? With 200+ hp. Really? I daresay that this monster was mad...

2d6 Light damage from the Cleric? Come on. Light of Mercuria, much? 4d6 as a ranged touch for a level 2 spell. At the very least, your cleric should be doing double his damage here. If you are only going to do piffly damge, you might as well be throwing down a Sound Burst and forcing a Save vs Stun ...

In Florida we have a law that ou have to make a degree finishable within 4 years (UCF is not supposed to stand for U Can't Finish).

Beguiler, hands down. Give him this: http://rapidshare.com/files/226500796/Beguiler_Spell_Reference_v1.5.pdf.html I can't claim credit for making it, but it is the most useful document ever for Beguilers. The Beguiler is a good mix between blaster and planned caster, actually. They have the big win ...

He is actually in a unique position for the physics degree, although I agree with your sentiments. Of course he knows of http://www.usajobs.gov/ He is likely to take a government job.
