Stats: 17,16,14,14,11,8 But my DM is also very restricted on books, he won't budge on them so the only ones we can use are: Core (no psionics), complete champion / warrior, planar handbook, draconomicon, Book of Exalted / vile, Heroes of battle, Races of Destiny / Dragons I was thinking of: Wizard (Transmuter) 5 War Weaver 5 Fighter 1 Eldritch Knight 3 Spellsword 1 Using the tapestry to cast spells like bulls strength etc before laying down the smack :p I doubt the game will go any higher than 15th level, and will be surprised if it gets past 17th so it needs to be at maximum potential now. We are also using fractional saves / bab as per UA. Other parts from UA are on a case by case basis. I want to play an arcane caster, but with the books being so limiting I am veering away slightly by trying to make a Gish, but loosing 3 caster levels isn't the best. Especially with only 10 BAB I am up for any character, be it divine, sneaky, fighter, arcane etc. Though arcane would be nice. I would also like to bring focus to the Illumian race specials too, as we are fighting for God Hood (God of Illumians) unsure what this really entails apart from PvP. So, please show me some builds / ideas / tips I'll be greatfull for anything :D

Between weezard and war weaver, you've burned too much in the way of BaB to really roll up and hit someone in the face. Unless you can get direct access to the war or competition domain... Gee, how would we do that... ;)
#3 naresh Jul 23, 2009 16:37:43	I must say, I have recently fallen in love with the War Weaver Though using it effectively is proving a harder trick to nail down though... I keep wanting to make it a gish, but I know it would be flawed... Yet, there aren't alot of spells (given the restrictions) that the war weaver can help me with... Also, forgot two books: races of the dragon and destiny, editing first post
#4 pyro_azer Jul 23, 2009 16:53:54	I will also suggest war weaver and removing the gish components.
#5 dr_rocktopus Jul 23, 2009 17:47:44	GMW is in races of the dragon. Translation: Everyone on your team had better find a nice blunt weapon they like.
#6 naresh Jul 24, 2009 4:32:46	Ok, so if I go for War Weaver, Wizard 5 War Weaver 5 then what about the final 5 levels? Also, any help for spells, feats and sigils?
#7 paradoxoflife_ Jul 24, 2009 6:07:45	Finishing off with the Sentinal of Bharri is a very strong option.
#8 dr_rocktopus Jul 24, 2009 12:41:11	Suggested spells: Haste Greater Mighty Wallop Greater Invis Polymorph Any flight spell that isn't personal
#9 paradoxoflife_ Jul 24, 2009 18:39:24	Don't take polymorph, It's a pain in the ass and likely to screw game balance.
