One day, the man who would become Basket Case realized that the world was nothing more than a basket, one that contained the entirety of civilization and was constantly beset by the TERMITES of INJUSTICE. After meditating long and hard on how to prevent the world from going to HELL in a HANDBASKET, he came to the conclusion that he had to weave a plan to preserve FIBER of HARMONY with the LID of RIGHTEOUSNESS.

It really wants Ranged Weapon Mastery for the range increment boost. Should probably have a level or two of the Exoticist fighter variant (Google "Chet Kindred Circle" for the old crystal keep files) to get free proficiency in a few exotic weapons including the boomerang, which opens a feat slot.

Edit: Is Ancestral Relic a possibility here? You could use the basket of your fourfathers (mother was a whore).

It always seems like the barrels around here have something in them.

It basically lets you pay market price to enhance your weapon.  In a game with magic walmart it's not so great, it's mostly for a warrior to get by in a "low magic" game, IMO.

What about Item Familiar?  Make the basket an intelligent item.  And if you can fit in Master Thrower for a level, you could get free quickdraw and trip shot, to knock people prone with your basket.

I've decided to go with Improved Trip + Knock Down for my tripping needs.

Quickdraw is utterly pointless as that would imply that BASKET CASE does not always have his basket in hand (or rather, on arm).

Can I get a brief explanation how the basket counts as a boomerang?

The old version used the Aptitude enchantment from ToB.
