So guys.
I just started a new 3.5 campaign, 8th level, and I won't go into the details of how this happened but the party turned out to be like this:
- Factotum 8 gonna be chameleon, which is me, which is doing his job (skillmonkeying everything)
- Kobold-themed-homebrew scout 8
- Human Cleric of Pelor 8, who focuses on healing
First session we had to run away from two encounters, and we managed to win one through sheer ingenuity. We are largely unable to control the battlefield and to deal HP damage to stuff; also our characters are quite squishy (the cleric has Con 10).
A fourth guy is set to join next session, and he wants to play a savage progression Wight, which is basically your normal Wight from MM (there's a campaign reason why a Cleric of Pelor would work with a Wight). As much as spawn could help us, we just cannot go around killing paesants for it.
However, I might convince the guy to play something else, or else the DM might let me change characters, albeit not immediately.
So guys, we need help. What do you suggest? every sourcebook is allowed, apart from non-eberron campaign specific stuff (web is go-go).
