09-08-04, 09:28 PM I'm not an expert or anything, but what does a barbarian lose by taking this? As I see it the barbarian loses indomitable will( which is replaced by Immunity to charms and compulsions), a few points of trap sense(yay.....), and the barbarian loses all those mean things he can do because s/he is exalted.But he is CG so I think that gives more leway than LG and NG,right.

BTW the prestige class is in BOED. Please tell me my train of thought is wrong, or right, or whatever you think is right..... If your wondering I've been playing for about a year now so I'm no real expert.

Going by how it's smite evil goes it will eventually exceed the paladin in usage ( but always be lower on damage, not taking great smite into account).(yes I'm looking in epic levels too). and a BRB10/COG10 has the same DR as a 25th level barbarian, and since it should go up 1pt./2levels it will put the barbarian's to shame.The first level ability says the prestige classes levels count towards rage usages, mighty rage, and all that good stuff which I assume apples at epic levels too.

09-08-04, 10:17 PM This is a nasty PrC... of course the barbarian can also go into the Frenzied berserker (which is mildly crazy) so if you pick and choose you could have a death machine

Forgive me for askin' this... but how can someone be an exalted psycho (Champ o' Jenny) AND an uncontrollable animated chainsaw (FB) ?? It makes for a wonderful-lookin' build... but, role-playing wise, is it feasible?

09-09-04, 04:15 AM Runescarred Berserker from UE is better. Together the two can be quite frightening.

However, a Frenzied Berserker 10/anything will typically be more powerful, albiet difficult to manage.

What a great nickname :D

09-09-04, 09:37 AM Isn't there a feat the the BoED that lets you keep your mind, and not attack your friends, even while in rage?

09-09-04, 09:39 PM Yes, righteous wrath, it is a pre-req for the COG. It dosen't mention anything about a frenzy, but I would house rule it to...... so people agree it's nasty?
