02-18-08, 06:00 PM I was looking through the 3.5 constructor prestige class and came across an article dated 7/27/02 that contains a lot of stuff not reprinted to my knowledge. Is this information hiding in a complete book or anywhere else already changed to 3.5 or do I have to update it to 3.5?

The ones in question are the advanced construction abilities left out of the 3.5 constructor tables, including the menu D abilities, ecto manipulation, and infused construction. The others I can see as fairly balanced. I would just hate to lose those as they are fairly interesting.

Thanks ahead of time.

By the way, that is, along with the thrallherd, my favorite PrC of all time.

02-18-08, 06:30 PM Sorry I wasn't more specific. I found that 3.5 constructor and like it a lot as well. I just found the 7/27/02 article as well and it has a few feats and menu abilities that weren't in the updated one. The menu abilities I'm refering to are Spike Volley, Ectoplasmic Form, and Spike Flurry, along with all of the Menu D abilities (The one I really want is Whitefire Aura).

And in the 3.5 article there is no mention of Ecto Manipulation. If I remember right you get one base menu ability from A at 1-3, B at 4-6? C at 7-9? With something like boost construct can I trade two Cs for one of those from menu D? Is the item Amulet of Advanced Construction or Gloves of Ecto Manipulation still compatible with 3.5 rules? These are the things I cannot find updated rules for.

I appreciate the fast response though. Seems someone still looks here every so often.

is compatible with the Expanded Psionics Handbook.
Anything before that is 3.0, and needs to be gone over with a fine-toothed metaphorical-comb before being incoporated into a 3.5 game.

02-18-08, 07:15 PM Aha. Thats what I needed. Thank you.

So would those abilities still be ok to use? They aren't to game breaking and give a shaper a bit more flexability. I know it's ultimately up to the DM but he frequents these boards as well so I would appreciate input.
