Forgot where I read about this one but Ferocity of the Sanguine Rage from Dragon Magic is a great Gish spell. Round/lvl for 1/2*CL moral bonus to all damage. And if you want, you can end the spell to gain the benefits of Truestrike. Simple and strong.

On of my favorite Monk feats I never see mentioned.
[spoiler]
RING THE GOLDEN BELL
[GENERAL]
Prerequisites: Wis 13, Improved Unarmed Strike,
Stunning Fist, Weapon Focus (unarmed strike), base
attack bonus +5.
Benefit: A number of times per day equal to 1 + your
Wisdom bonus, you may deal unarmed strike damage with
a successful ranged attack. This attack has a range increment
equal to 5 feet + 5 feet per point of Wisdom bonus. Normal
cover modifiers apply. This attack can deliver any effect your
unarmed strike can normally deliver, such as a stunning
attack due to the Stunning Fist feat.
[/spoiler]

I KNEW this feat hadn't been imagined by someone. Can you give me the source?
Rather weak compared to Blood Wind... But then monks can't cast that :).

Bloodwind turns it into a ranged attack. Ring the Golden Bell lets you make melee attacks at ranged. Like Bloodstorm blade. That's what makes it even better.

I'm pretty sure it's in Dragon Compendium as well.
My work
The tier system in a nutshell:
[spoiler]Tier 6: A cartographer.
Tier 5: An expert cartographer or a decent marksman.
Tier 4: An expert marksman.
Tier 3: An expert marksman, cartographer and chef who can tie strong knots and is trained in hostage negotiation or a marksman so good he can shoot down every bullet fired by a minigun while armed with a rusted single-shot pistol that veers to the left.
Tier 2: Someone with teleportation, mind control, time manipulation, intangibility, the ability to turn into an exact duplicate of anything, or the ability to see into the future with perfect accuracy.

Yes it is, on page 105.

Wow. I just saw the Power Crystals in Magic of Eberron. These incredible items are warforged components that can allow a psionic warforged to manifest a specific psionic power once per day, using their own power points. So they're like Rune Staffs, but only hold a single power each. They're also incredibly cheap (400 gp for a 1st level one). 'Forged were already one of my favorite races for psions, and they just got better.
[spoiler]
A couple of water benders, a dike, a flaming arrow, and a few barrels of blasting jelly?

Sounds like the makings of a gay porn film.
...thanks

Dragonlance: Holy Orders of the Stars!

The Bright Warden of Paladine is sweet! 3/5 divine casting, grants Divine Grace, and most importantly, FREE ACTION to spend a turn attempt to add Cha to saves and AC of all allies within 30ft. Lasts for Caster Level/rounds!
There is much more I will add later.

Untiring Form! You don't need to sleep for 1day/4 levels. But here is the big money...

number of spells that they can prepare, as they usually do.

Of course, you could get the same effect with the positive energy channeling feat from Kingdoms of Kalamar, and it'd last for ten minutes.

That's only Saves and Skill Checks. Not quite as good. And it's a Morale bonus while The Bright Warden's is Sacred.

Can either be used with Evil's Blessing from Elder Evils?   Standard action to gain +Cha bonus (as Profane) bonus to saves.  Bonus doubles for a round if you hit a good creature.  No limit on uses written in.
I am constantly amazed by how many DM's ban Tomb of Battle.  The book doesn't even exist!

Why would you even do this? It hurts my eyes and looks like you ate your keyboard before suffering an attack of explosive diarrhea.

I probably don't have the book (gotta check), but going by just the names, I'm going to go out on a limb and tentatively guess that you need to be Good-aligned or at least non-evil for Bright Warden and Positive Energy Channeling.

Although I guess you could make a decent case for a Hellbred to be able to do that. I can see a LG Hellbred harming himself with magic intentionally to get CHA x 2 to saves.
Read, every day, something no one else is reading. Think, every day, something no one else is thinking. Do, every day, something no one else would be silly enough to do. It is bad for the mind to be always part of unanimity.

Hellbred doesn't extend to Vile feats, only Devil Touched, Magic Items, and Spells.

Positive energy channeling works for negative energy as well, but you'll have to have a good reason for knowing the secrets of a good church.

RAW, yes. But then, nowadays, who plays by strict RAW?

One of the dragon magazines had this eidetic wizard substitution which effectively lets you do away with the need for a spellbook.

Not really optimized, but neat for putting to rest that tired argument about how a wizard can be screwed if the DM has a thief steal his spellbook... :smirk
A clear conscience is the surest sign of a failing memory.

Dragon #357 > page 88 > Class Acts > Transversed Arcana > Eidetic Spellcaster > Level: 1st, "do not gain a familiar or the Scribe Scroll bonus feat", "You do not need a spell-book, either to record spells you know or to prepare known spells. You can learn spells normally, either through gaining levels in wizard or learning from other spellbooks, and you must pay all the normal costs for learning new spells (used instead in special incenses rather than inks), but you do not need to put them into a spellbook."

Vicon English Dictionary > "eidetic  [ei·det·ic || a?'det?k]
adj. pertaining to visual images (seen recently or long before) which can be recalled vividly and with great detail"

"olfactory  [ol·fac·to·ry || ɑl'fæktərɪ /ɒl'fæktrɪ]
n. sense of smell; olfactory organ
adj. related to sense of smell" (Vicon English Dictionary)

Caveat: the GM might have you require special incenses to prepare from as a fluff-prerequisite.

There is nothing in that ACF that requires that, the incenses are only used to add the spells to your usable spell list, it would be like requiring the wizard to have his ink handy when memorizing from his spell book in the morning.

The dreadful wrath feat (Pgtf 38) is actually a pretty decent source of fear, since it's unlimited use, a nonaction, and has a DC of 10 + 1/2 Level + cha mod).  Range is 20 feet (a little lame), and it only causes shaken, but hey, free fearing.
