Dear god, that build is terrible. Duskblade is a poor caster, and cerebremancer automatically makes you weaker since you've lost 7 manifester levels and 5 caster levels, and a lot of BAB. I don't know what your build's aim is! Is it dual caster? Gish? Psi-Gish?

You have pretty good stats, it's a shame to waste them on a strange build like this. May I suggest a simple Egoist/Slayer build? I believe it gets BAB 16+, and it's pretty strong throughout it's career (no pesky d4s to get in your way).

How DID you get those stats, though?

Finish Work Hurra...

For the stat it because of item I have

like headband of intellec+6 etc.

well Im looking for a gish like psionic. My goal is to break everything that is agaist my group and me :P classic


enough powerful to use least pp for a greater DC. Like my DM is crack pot in the head he send use one of the angel lord( the seer ) from book of exalted deed but it was L-E but of a cursed item that held the power of an ancient evil god. I use death urge and work agaisnt him but it cost me like 60 something pp for the DC to be high enough to make him fail is save.

The thing is there no arcane user except me in the group. But we do have a cleric. So dont mind that you guy tell pure psionic build that can help me out or even Manisfacana ( manisfester/Arcane )

For psi-gish, wouldn't it be better off to take levels in Psionic Warrior instead of Duskblade? Also: Psionic Warrior Handbook

I've never been a big fan of swashbuckler. Instead of taking 3 levels in Swb, 3 levels in Warblade might be a better idea. Instead of +1 to Ref saves, you add your Int bonus. You get uncanny dodge, Effective Weapon Focus with any weapon, and maneuvers on top of that. If you sacrifice a level of something, and start out Psion, you can get Iron Heart Surge, one of the most powerful maneuvers.

At level 19? With a shot up manifester level...

ok tnx for the link and all

Warblade 3/ psion2/ slayer 10/ iron mind 5 is this build good for a psi-gish
or
Warblade3/psychic warrior 2/slayer 10/ iron mind 5

and which is better psion vs psion ( for the discipline ) and psion vs wilder, psion vs psychic warrior.

tnx in advance

Yeah, 24 hours between bumps, kthnx.

That being said, I'd pick psion over psychic warrior because of the better pp reserve and more powers to access.
I think egoist or nomad could both work for a gish, I'm no expert on psionics though and I'm AFB at the moment.

War mind would work a lot better than Psychic warrior. Duskblade 5/War mind 4/Cerebremancer 6/Abjurant champion 5 would have a BAB of 17, 5th level powers and 5th level spells. EDIT: Only 4th level spells...

But I do think that It'd be better to play either an ordinary Psi-gish or an ordinary Duskblade. Or you could play a Duskblade that has the Phrenic template, that'd give you stronger "powers" (they're actually psi-like abilities, which is good because they're fully augmented for free) and stronger spells than through heavy multiclassing, even with that +2 LA.
