![]() Two levels of SS also provides +3 to Reflex, +3 to Will, +1 to Init, and +Wis Modifier to AC.Īny suggestions as to good sword sage stances and maneuvers to supplement my warblade levels?Due to the issue of prerequisites, a focus on diamond mind would be a good idea. Add +10 FEET to your jump check RAW that means it should add 10' to your vertical leap. The only drawback is a restriction that your foe has to be of a larger size than you. Jump based attack if the jump check succeeds, gain +4 to hit, and +6D6 damage. so, for example, jump aside, then charge. Jump-based attack for +2D6, and if you threaten a critical you get +4 to confirm, which has nice synergy with your WB Battle Ardor. Plus the win that is Improved Uncanny Dodge means the mook swarms can't flank me as I flank them. and did you notice Distracting Ember? My WB teams up with a Crusader, and I've maxed out ranks on Tumble so I can easily flank. Gain sneak attack for 2d6 any time you catch them flat footed or gain combat advantage. 5d6 strangling damage (ranged touch, no save) plus they must Fort save or become flat-footed. Greater Invisibility for the duration of your turn is pure win. Instant flanking for one round, and your DM may let you start a fire with this summoned fire elemental under optimal conditions. ![]() So because I wanted to qualify for Mo9, and also just to broaden the sorts of things I could do, I wanted to choose maneuvers from other disciplines. Also, a SS gets 6 maneuvers known, 4 readied, at first level.įirst, though, my WB has been taking Iron Heart, Diamond Mind, and some White Raven. I'm thinking I'll eventually take the Master of Nine PrC, and that requires more maneuver disciplines than WB permits. Remember to keep your initiator levels separate.Īny suggestions as to good sword sage stances and maneuvers to supplement my warblade levels?As a matter of fact, I'm seriously considering multi-classing my WB with some SS. So if you know two Stone Dragon maneuvers on Warblade, for example, you could learn a Stone Dragon maneuver with two required pre-reqs that you meet the necessary IL for with Swordsage. Sorry for not touching on your second question before, maneuvers you know in either list should count towards the maneuvers known requirements for learning maneuvers for either list. Keep in mind that IL's round down, unless your DM has explicitly houseruled them to round up. As well as Moment of Alacrity, which would require IL 11. At 8.5, you're still limited to 4th level maneuvers, and Iron Focus is a 5th level, which won't be available until IL 9. ![]() I could be wrong on the Ring of Diamond Mind thing, but I don't think I am.As a previous poster stated, if your DM has allowed that interpretation, great! Have fun!Īlso, I totally goofed on the 3rd level limit (it should be 4th at IL 7), which means that Iron Heart Focus is on your list before you could learn it. ![]() The RAI are very different than RAW, and just pulling that baby out and saying "I just turned off the anti-magic field" on a DM who has no prior knowledge of ToB can cause a flurry of heavy DM tomes to cross the table in your direction. Mine knew of it in advance and we clarified that IHS could not eliminate the wetness of water or turn off the sun if such things offended my Warblade. I am currently AFB, but I'm playing a Warblade right now.ĭo discuss Iron Heart Surge with your DM prior to the first time you use it. I think it's pretty clear they want you to have an initiator level such that you can take 3rd level maneuvers to take the example. I could be wrong on the Ring of Diamond Mind thing, but I don't think I am.If you look in your ToB, you'll see something that says words like "Swordsage 3 / Warblade 3" for each maneuver. (Similar to a spell)īut the maneuver prereqs only say I need 4 maneuvers/stances from DM, nothing about being a 17th level warblade/s.sage. Like to get TST, you normally need IL of 17 if you want it from your class abilities. I thought for the items that grant maneuvers, you just needed to know a sufficient number of maneuvers of the right school.
