For getting a new arm, look into the Mighty Arms graft (Faiths of Eberron p158) It is magical, so may not be allowed, but it will turn your rogue into a Bionic Commando.

I say a mechanical arm with a little suprise...

What is that from?
[Spoiler]
A gygaxian dungeon is like the world's most messed up game show.

Behind door number one: INSTANT DEATH!
Behind door number 2: A magic crown!
Behind door number 3: 4d6 giant bees, and THREE HUNDRED POUNDS OF HONEY!
They don't/haven't, was the point. 3.5 is as dead as people not liking nice tits.

Sometimes, their tits (3.5) get enhancements (houserules), but that doesn't mean people don't like nice tits.

Though sometimes, the surgeon (DM) botches them pretty bad...
Best metaphor I have seen in a long time.  I give you much fu.
Three Errata for the Mage-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Barbarian-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Monks doomed to die,
One for the Wizard on his dark throne
In the Land of Charop where the Shadows lie.

The pic?
The manga Berserk
It's very dark, and very gory, but quite good (in my opinion)

I thought that was it. Don't recall that part though. I may have missed it somehow.

always fun to emphasise that your old character wasnt broken by making a core only druid and curbstomping the game... not that you should do that... totally not...

you should totally do that! lol

but yeah, they're right; you're gonna have to tell your DM that he's killing the main point of the game, to have FUN!

If you're going to kill off your character, have you considered killing him off and then just keep on playing him?

It's probably your best move.

Wait.
Don't say anything.
I know this one.

Ghost Savage Progression?

Hey, that actually would work.
Keep those throwing skills, now use Telekinesis to throw 12 daggers every d4 turn.
Don't need no stinking arms :p

the most effective optimization is the one you can actually get away with.  :smirk

Quote from: Vinom
(A group of nerds are called a murder because like crows we are anti-social, like shiny things, and often squack at each other over nothing for hours)

I often have to remind people not to underrate divination.  The ability to effectively metagame without actually metagaming beats the ability to set things on fire more times than not.

Before giving the advice that build X would be better of with Fist of the Forest, take a long, good look at Primal Living. Twice.

is there anywhere you can't fit that in, Mad?

If you stop ignoring 289 pages telling what the intent is to stretch "more power" in your own god complexion of your interpretation trumps all to cover ability adjustments from aging then I will ignore a quarter page of rules that exist within a sidebar.
I think in this case the grammar is less important than whether the Str and Dex bonus provided to your created undead scales.

The Ghost Savage Progression: Strike me down now and I will become more optimized than you can possibly imagine!
It always seems like the barrels around here have something in them.

Are you having fun?
Did you have fun when you got your arm bit off?
When was the last time you had fun playing this?
Why are you playing this game, for fun, with a douche?
Why not find something fun to do instead of playing games with your douche?

Why not get and adventure and read it over and run your own game and make it fun?
