Ask a Simple Question: Viking Berserker Edition

Q121  Are there ways to gain immunity to fatigue?

There is an item in Comp Champion, Sandals of the Vagabond or whatnot I believe.

A121

Sandals of the Vagabond(4000gp)

also this feat:

Tireless

[Agita]

Being a Warforged or other construct or undead race is another.

[The_Mad_Linguist]

Oh, yeah, take a level in  you know the rest.

[Ithamar]

Q122:  Might seem like common sense, but is an Undead Cleric immune to their own Turn Undead ability?  If a Good Undead Cleric turns undead, the ability simply states it affects the closest, turnable undead.  Would that include the cleric?  I've checked the FAQ and Rules Compendium, but didn't find anything specific and/or definitive.

A122:  By RAW, no.  They evidently never considered undead Clerics when they made the Turn Undead rule.  Considering there are undead who have Rebuke Undead though, I think it's clear that RAI is they don't effect themselves.  Use that information as you will.

Q123 What is this trick I keep hearing about involving Versatile Spellcaster and Heighten Spell?

Q123 What is this trick I keep hearing about involving Versatile Spellcaster and Heighten Spell?

When combined those two feats can be used for early entry into prestige classes that requires you to cast a certain level of spells.

add in earth spell, and you get the "lvl1 entry into rainbow servant" trick.

You really need sanctum spell due to feat restrictions as earth spell has earth sense as a prerequisite.

[McPoyo]

Or play a human, or an illumian, or just use a flaw.

Q124  Is there a Planar Shepherd handbook around somewhere?  I'm trying to put together a build for a friend's druid and would love to have some material I could draw from.

Q 109 I thought I'd bookmarked it, but apparently not. Where can I find information on situational XP? Where basically you reward a player for going above and beyond with their character. Like you don't really reward the cleric for being the heal bot, but you would reward the player if he figured out that while his character couldn't do anything personally to help the situation, he could delay what was happening until such time that the others could do something to help, and even told them what each of their characters were to do to in the mean time. It's rare, but I have seen it, and players who don't go "Let me get a WIS check or INT check, and if I roll well you tell me what I can do." should deserve a bonus of somekind. I know I've seen it, and read it over, but I just can't find it again.

Q 125 Is there an NPC or PC build somewhere of a character that builds constructs, whether it be in a pre-generated campaign (preferred), or something else?

[PlzBreakMyCampaign]

Q126: Does the Ghost Savage Progression have different requirements for the 'template'? I know its supposed to but: "'Ghost' is an acquired template  that can be added to any aberration, animal, dragon, giant, humanoid, magical beast, monstrous humanoid, or plant. The creature (referred to hereafter as the base creature) must have a Charisma score of at least 6" != "'Ghost' is an acquired template usually gained upon an intelligent creature's death. Such a creature can advance in the ghost template class and develop her powers slowly if desired."

Yes TML, you are free to answer without pimping.

Effigy Master is the PrC you're looking for. Doesn't get much better than that.

Wait, what? Why am I looking a PrC? That's only good for those who have access to the wiz/sor spell list, sadly. Not quite what I had in mind for the story (looking to go bard).
