Interested2 11-28-04, 09:35 AM	Well, after reading the Optimizing the Master Transmog thread, I was wondering what monsters of 15hd or less have the best Ex abilities. The carrion crawlers paralysis comes to mind, as does Blood Drain from the gibbering mouther...

MetalGemini 11-28-04, 11:14 AM	Dual action-aspect of demogorgon regeneration-solar immunity to magic-golems Solar & Aspect only works if you become an outsider yourself. Golem won't work b'c you can't polymorph into a construct. Hydra - fast healing 10+# of original heads = 15-22! Gold dragon - Water breathing (also HD, size increase with your level)
Interested2 11-28-04, 11:48 AM	Yes... anyone know any way to become an outsider that doesn't require LA or a reigonal feat (like otherworldly)? Please keep it up! I'd love to see outsider ablilities too, so post them too please :) And willo-the-wisp isn't an outsider, right? Protective slime could be useful, I suppose... (from the Babau) Also, what book are the Aspects from? I *know* I've seen them somewhere...
Blade2718 11-28-04, 12:06 PM	Aspects of the greater fiends are from the Miniature's Handbook. I think someone was compiling a list of the best Ex abilities for shapechanges\; Kbssnowowl, I believe.
Interested2 11-28-04, 12:10 PM	Thanks! Must...find...thread...
Interested2 11-28-04, 12:11 PM	Thanks! Must...find...thread... Edit - said thread is on (Su) abilities....I'm looking foe (Ex) abilities to use with the Infinite Variety class ability of Master Transmog 10.
Funny Slaughter 11-28-04, 12:12 PM	quite some abilities are also listed in the 3.5 polymorph thread... gs Funny

NateNate 11-29-04, 02:42 PM	The new Yugoloths from the MM3 each have an (EX) Summon Yugoloth ability. I doubt you'd actually be able to control what you summon with it, though.
deduke 11-29-04, 02:44 PM	Yes... anyone know any way to become an outsider that doesn't require LA or a reigonal feat (like otherworldly)? 5 levels in Divine Disciple (Players Guide to Faerun) make you a native outsider. You have to be able to cast divine spells though.

Seriously, how does that work? I mean, having an undead skull floating around by nonmagical means is bad enough, but (Ex) summoning??? :nonono:
Funny Slaughter 11-29-04, 06:31 PM	WTF? Seriously, how does that work? I mean, having an undead skull floating around by nonmagical means is bad enough, but (Ex) summoning??? :nonono: maybe with verbal components? :P gs Funny
catharz 11-29-04, 06:41 PM	maybe with verbal components? :P gs Funny :banghead: Ah well, let the designers do what they want. I guess I can't argue with an (Ex) special attack that summons Yugoloth(i?) :dancin:
Shemeska the Marauder 12-11-04, 10:28 AM	Ah well, let the designers do what they want. I guess I can't argue with an (Ex) special attack that summons Yugoloth(i?) :dancin: Hey it usually works for me, I scream and yell and generally pitch a temper tantrum and mezzoloths just come running to do whatever my whimsy says for them to do. A perk of being a greater yugoloth I guess. http://arcanofox.foxpaws.net/shemmysmile.gif
