I've never played with these guys before, but it looks like they deliberately play with somewhat overpowered characters. Unfortunately, I'm not quite sure what to play. The party currently has a druid (ws spec), fighter, and ranger. There currently is no dedicated arcane caster or divine healer. The party is largely CG in alignment, and the DM will allow material from the BoED, if that matters. Here's what I rolled for stats: 18 16 14 13 12 12 Race-wise I'd prefer to stick with the core, PHB races. I'm playing a wizard in another (Pathfinder) campaign and would prefer not to play another wizard (unless it took some obscure aspect of wizardry to some extreme). Any recommendations (classes, along with a solid, simple build)? Here are the books we have available to draw from: Book of Exalted Deeds Complete Adventurer Complete Arcane Complete Divine Defenders of the Faith Draconomicon Dungeon Master's Guide Dungeon Master's Guide II Epic Level Handbook Expanded Psionics Handbook Fiend Folio Frostburn Libris Mortis Lords of Madness Magic Item Compendium Monster Manual Monster Manual II Monster Manual III Planar Handbook Player's Handbook Sandstorm Sword and Fist Tome and Blood Unearthed Arcana
#2 carnivore May 25, 2010 15:01:17	what is the starting level? are you looking for Combat power or Non-combat power? since UA is allowed .... you might try a Generic Spellcaster.... here is a Link: www.systemreferencedocuments.org/resourc... even at first level you can Fullfill MANY roles ..... try this: Human Generic Spellcaster(Arcane)... Int based Casting  12 Str 14 Dex 13 Con 18 Int 12 Wis 16 Cha Weapon: Dagger Feats: Sneak Attack (Ex): As the rogue ability, but +2d6 on damage rolls. Trap Sense (Ex): Combines the rogue class features trap sense and trapfinding Familiar: As the sorcerer ability. Use spellcaster level to determine familiar's abilities. Class Skills: Craft Hide Knowledge (all) Move Silently Profession Search Spellcraft Skill points: 20 Spellcasting: A spellcaster learns and casts spells as a sorcerer. She may select her spells known from the cleric, druid, and sorcerer/wizard spell lists. this makes a versatile character that can fullfill many roles, and cover any areas that are needed you might also do something Similar with Psion
