It seems this is one of those inexplicable DMs that are of the mind that Fighters are a great awesome class that can be just as good as anyone else. And then complains that ToB is broken. He really makes very little sense. He seems to have several misguided beliefs which I will be slowly curing him of. We argued for 30 minutes because he wanted to allow anything from Faerun, Ebberon, Kalamar, Dragonlance, or OA, but they would be considered Outsiders. They would gain the Outsider type. I immediately began to cheer as my Strongheart Halfling now counted as an Outsider, and Alter Self became so much better. I didn't have the heart to abuse it though, so I tried to explain and he didn't see why that would be an issue. So me and the entire table tried to explain it to him. Half an hour later he conceded that it was a mistake and that he would not be doing that.
He inexplicably believes ToB to be broken, but Dual Casting with early entry shenanigans is fine, as is a DMM Persist Cleric. And don't get me started on his thoughts on Psionics. This should be an interesting game.
So, any further suggestions on my character?
