Having an identity crisis with my Gish.

[bjoern]

Well not so much a crisis, but trying to decide on which way I want to go.
I'm a Pal2/Sorc4/Spellsword1/AbjChamp5
Silverbrow Human.
Up to this point I've played the role of "Hey look at me! Attack this guy!"
Which has been working pretty well as our party has 2 other full casters (I lost 2 levels on paladin so I make a 3rd caster albeit at 5/6th of a full caster)
So far my schtick had been to buff us with a haste, buff my AC through the roof and use my continuous item of enlarge person and reach weapon to combat reflexes & Stand Still as many foes as I can. Just be a big pain In the ass while our casters make things even worse for the baddies.
I've been using a +1 sizing, sudden stunning Lucerne hammer of collision.
I have also been allowed to have my hammer count as a custom runestaff that I've put quite a few 1/day good stuff spells on.

Now that im fully in the realm of polymorph, I've been considering getting rid of the enlarge person item in favor of that. Poly into a treant, roper, or something.
That being said, I could also ditch the +3 weapon to free up some more funds.

I guess the biggest question I'm asking is: if I dropped the collision off the weapon and sold the enlarge person item, it would free up 24k gold. Giving me 33k total gold to spend.

I need some cool things that I can do for that price besides dealing an extra 5 damage per hit.

A 3 level dip in swiftblade will get you free quicken haste, 30% miss chance that doesn't stack with blur, +1 untyped bonus to hit, ac and reflexes, good bab, good will and reflex saves and spring attack for free. The downsides are 1 caster level loss, the d6 HD and the feat tax.

One level Crusader and then into Jade Phoenix Mage is pretty strong, (Both classes are from Tome of Battle). You will lose more caster levels though this is allleviated a little bit, but you can get the Thicket of Blades Stance immediately giving you even more possibilites for AoO as every movement (including a 5ft step!) provokes an AoO from you. This stance keeps working even when you polymorph so go big. You can also get some free in-combat healing with some of the other strikes. The prereqs are not difficult to get. Have a look if you can use the book.
