The arrow spells from CoR are kinda shitty as actual spells, but they make amazing traps. Put arrowsplit into an auto-reseting trap on your bow with the trigger "when an arrow is fired from this bow'. For hilarity, make it a splitting bow. Now, whenever you make an attack, you get 10 (2 from splitting x 5 from arrowsplit). Do it with hand crossbows instead and TWF + rapid shot with them. Assuming +16 BAB, rapid shot, and full TWFing with two splitting hand crossbows of speed, you're looking at 10 attacks, each of which becomes 10, for a total of 100 attacks per round. Throw on a doublestrike trap and you can hit two targets with each attack.

Quotes I Found Entertaining:

Huge amounts of people are fuckwits. That doesn't mean that fuckwit is a valid lifestyle.

As a general rule, murdering people and taking their stuff is pretty much superior to breaking their stuff, murdering them, then not having any stuff to take.

Eh, I dunno. Maneuvers are pretty sweet.

Oh right.



Meanwhile, I am super fond of the Swiftblade! Such an awesome PrC!

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.
It most definitely is decent when you consider the other fear-causing feats (Frightful Presence and Kiai Shout) have a max Hit Dice limitation on whom it affects, while this one does not.

No matter what you throw on a magic trap, the results are always amazing.

You can do all those things on an archer.  ???

For magic Items, I've also always been fond of Hand of the Mage. 500gp for unlimited Mage Hand?  YES PLEASE.

It doubles as "detect small magic items" as well.

Indeed it does. Mage Hand's one of  my favorite cantrips--along with good ol' Presto and Ghost Sound.

Hm. Wonder if I could talk a GM into applying the Hand of the Mage precedent to other cantrips....


(I'm reminded of 4e's Gloves of the Hedge Wizard, which cost 520 gp and give Mage Hand and Presto. Almost all my characters have them.)

Glimmmerskin Halfling Dragonfire Adept 5/Nosomatic Chirurgeon 1

     3rd   Lesser Dragonmark (Mark of Healing)
     6th   Draconic Breath

Hey bears, mind submitting that to the low level builds compilation, with a bit of an explanation of how it works? :P

If you can use flaws, you could throw Entangling Breathe in there, too. Even at half damage, that's still quite nasty at level 6! Especially when it continues on for multiple rounds... and entangles them...

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.

I found a little better explanation of the build here:
 - http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=144011

With a Strongheart Glimmerskin Halfling you can get Entangling Breathe in there too. As mention in the thread I just posted :)

But how do you get 12d6 Damage? I don't understand how NC increases your breath weapon?

I think I see what it is. Enthralling Voice is a SLA of 6th level, so you use Nosomatic Chirugeon to convert that into a Mass IMW, and then use Draconic Breath to turn that into a 12d6 breath weapon, right?

Thats sound very very cheesy :p First you convert your SLA into a spell, then as a standard action into a BW Attack... Also, the feat Draconic Heitage (CAr p.77) has prerequisite: Sorcerer 1st level. Where do I find Lesser Dragonmark (Mark of Healing)? Thanks

Add on a flaw and take Dragontouched. Unless the original build bypasses that already?

Okay, then you should be good. I was thinking Warlock for some odd reason.
