Odd Character Combination... (TWF Crusader)

[Darrin]

But where is Travel Devotion from? I don't have Complete Champion, I expect it's from there :P.

Yes, Complete Champion. You can find the description on Realmshelp:

It allows you to move up to your speed as a swift action for 10 rounds. For TWF or Skirmish builds, this lets you move and then full attack in the same round. For a bard/crusader using his standard action to start Inspire Courage or execute single-attack maneuvers, this still leaves you with the problem of what to do with your move action. Some suggestions:

1) Shadow Stride. No prereqs, although a Bard/Crusader might have trouble picking it up with Martial Study before 12th level. Move action to shadow jump up to 50'.

2) Improved Feint. Requires Combat Expertise, but pairs up nicely with your standard action strikes.

3) Goad. Unlike Improved Feint, only requires one feat, but not all that helpful most of the time.

4) Clarion Commander. Requires another feat (White Raven Defense), but you can use "Follow Up" as a move action after a hit to provide an AoO to an ally next round. Also gives you "Perpetual Flank" as a standard action, 10 rounds of instant flanking for just an Intimidate DC 20 check.

5) Scorching Sirocco. Requires another feat (Desert Wind Dodge). Move action to cause an opponent to catch fire.
