Greetings, all!

What resources exist for optimizing rebuking Undead as a Cleric beyond those listed in The AfterCrescent Cleric Handbook (http://minmaxforum.com/index.php?topic=1238)?

Thankee!

CLARITY EDIT: I refer to rebuking, not turning, Undead.

For the sake of clarity do you mean rebuking to rebuke/control undead only or any use of rebuking such as divine feats?

A few items I didn't see mentioned. (Apologies for any duplicate suggestions.)


Paragnostic Apostle PrC (Complete Champion)

Full casting class that advances turning/rebuking at each level
Optional class feature "See Through the Veil" increases effective cleric level by 2 for turning/rebuking. Can be selected for up to 3 times during the 5 level progression (+6 effective level).


Undeath Domain

Grants the Extra Turning feat (+4 uses/day)


Domain Spontaneity Feat

Allows you to spend a turn/rebuke attempt to convert a spell into a given domain spell of equal or lower level.


Divine Defiance Feat

Allows one to spend a turn/rebuke attempt to counterspell as an immediate action.


Devotion Feats (i.e. Trickery)

A few of the domain devotion feats can be used additional times per day by spending turn/rebuke attempts.



Nightstick

Libris Mortis, 7500gp. Held item that grants 4 additional uses of turn/rebuke per day.


Miscellaneous Magic Items
(Some increase turning power, others lower undead resistance)

Scepter of The Netherworld
Rod of Defiance
Phylactery of Turning
Mace of The Dark Children (...I think?)

One of these days, someone should port the Comprehensive Guide to Turning (https://web.archive.org/web/20151030085507/http://community.wizards.com/forum/previous-editions-character-optimization/threads/979911) to a new forum.
