Kung Fu Genius for Unarmed Swordsage?
« on: September 05, 2010, 09:11:18 PM »
Would you allow it? How would it work? Would it just be for the AC bonus or would it apply to save DCs and Insightful Strikes as well?

I wouldn't reccommend it regardless as most of the manuver Save DC's are Wisdom-based (of those Swordsages get access to).

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.

If I would allow it I would switch all the wisdom based class abilities for swordsage to Int, but i would leave the manuvers alone, so most swordsage manuvers DC's would still be wis based.

If a player asked me I would probably allow it with the above restiction.

Would only be AC by Raw, which is so not worth it.

Eh, the wizard have more money than them combined, he could in theory just use all his money on a fleet of trained attack mules, but then we aren't playing 3.5 but zergling rushing in Starcraft instead.

You might as well just ask for an unarmed Warblade, INT-based and only mildly less of a house-rule than the Unarmed Swordsage.

No kidding. Seeing how a Warblade gets bonus feats, all you would really be asking is to trade two of those away for Improved & Superior Unarmed Strike (both are not on the bonus feat list, hey is says warblade right?).

Ya but it is also an unarmed swordsage and the variant feature allows the use of improved unarmed strike.  If the original feat changed everything from wisdom to intelligence then as long as the feat is allowed by the DM then i could see it applying to everything.  It would make for a great skill monkey build since the swordsage already has a ridiculous amount of skill points.
