[3.x/PF] GitP Regulars as Feats!

[illyahr]

I like it. The lesser, non-resistible pushback might still be an issue, but on the other hand, it might just help melee types scale a bit better at high levels.

The last change I would make would actually be to buff it a little by allowing it to work with non-two-handed weapons. I get that there's the whole "bat swing" thing with a two handed warhammer, but I have a soft spot for Monks and monsters and would like to use it with punches and claws and such.

Made adjustments to allow for different weapon types but they deal decreasing damage based on what kind of weapon so you can totally Falcon Punch with it now. Still not allowing it with natural weapons other than Unarmed Strike.

[illyahr]

I feel like it's a bit underwhelming for a feat, but I'm not sure what else I could add. The goal is to make an avian animal companion that's effective in combat, but I feel like I'm coming up short.

Give it the Diving Charge feat. That way it does extra damage based on how high it dove from.

Did that, and added perfect maneuverability, because a good hunting bird should be able to pull a u-turn in midair.

While charging. Definately while charging. Is there a feat for that?

Oh, and Flyby Attack. We don't want it getting crunched.

[Troacctid]

Hawks are tiny size with no reach, so flanking may prove difficult for them.

[illyahr]

He put in the description that they are treated as having a 5' reach for the purposes of flanking.

Precisely. I wanted to create something similar to the Knight of the Raven's Harrier ability, but decided to go with a shared flanking bonus for some reason.

Blackhawk Companion

[Blackhawk748]

I've got this one.

Blackhawk Companion
Blackhawks are specially trained combat hawks, trained for war. Those who can tame one earn a loyal and deadly ally.
Prerequisites: BAB +4, Animal Companion class feature
Benefits: Your may take a Blackhawk as an animal companion. Treat this creature as a Hawk, with the following changes.

• Effective Druid Level: If you are not a Druid, your effective Druid level for the purpose of determining your Blackhawk's power is equal to your class level which advances your animal companion. For example, a level 6 Ranger is treated as a level 6 Druid for the purpose of measuring his Blackhawk's power. This ability has no effect if you are a Druid.
• Flanking: Blackhawks are trained to flank enemies in combat. When you and your Blackhawk are flanking an enemy, you both receive double the benefit (i.e. +4 to attacks instead of +2). Treat the Blackhawk's reach as 5 for flanking purposes.
• Sighting: You and your Blackhawk have trained to hunt together, and it can help signal the direction of fleeing prey. If your Blackhawk has line of sight to a target, you gain +2 to ranged attack rolls against that target. If you have the Favored Enemy class feature, this bonus is doubled (+4).
• Diving Charge: A Blackhawk receives the Diving Charge feat (Races of the Wild) as a bonus feat.
• Perfect Maneuverability: Unlike the ordinary hawk, the Blackhawk has perfect maneuverability.

In all other respects, treat the Blackhawk as an ordinary animal companion.
Normal: Ordinarily, animal companions are selected from the animal companion list, and non-Druids take a reduced Druid level for their advancement.

I feel like it's a bit underwhelming for a feat, but I'm not sure what else I could add. The goal is to make an avian animal companion that's effective in combat, but I feel like I'm coming up short.

This is awesome, i can now make Quinn properly!

That... is a really valid point. "Valor, to me!"

[Red Fel]

Filler text.

[We see Integra looking at a photograph of the ship's deck with the phrase "VALOR, TO ME!" scrawled on the deck in blood.]

Integra: I- I don't get this. I don't get it.

Penwood: None of us know what it means either.

Integra: Is it a reference or something?

[LoyalPaladin]

Filler text.

Is that a thing? Like I didn't know they had an abridged for that...

Stop whatever your doing and go watch it. Right now.

[Red Fel]

Seriously. Team Four Star did - and continues to do - some great stuff with DBZ Abridged. But their Hellsing Ultimate Abridged is the stuff of legend. You'll laugh. You'll laugh. You'll have to change your pants. But you won't be able to, because you'll be too busy laughing.

Well, we were going to do a Bleach marathon tonight, but perhaps this will over ride it.

You can do both, but you'll probably end up re-watching HUA. They only have five episodes done so far (they went on hiatus for awhile), and they're only 15-20 minutes a pop, so you can burn though them fairly quickly.

Oh sweet. I'll run it by my roommate and our friends that are coming over. Normally we'd do some form of D&D night when we all group together, but my roommate is a heathen who doesn't respect D^2.

Technically, it would be 2D algebraically, or D₂ chemically. D² would be D*D, not D&D, which is mathematically expressed as D+D (or 2D, or D₂).

Why is Int always a dump stat for Paladins, huh?

Okay, I worked FOREVER on trying to get the exponent 2 to work correctly and I couldn't do it. Heart = Broken.

Why is Int always a dump stat for Paladins, huh?

Normally I'd say "Intelligence is a dump stat because I don't need mathematics to see the evil in your actions!". But I think that this time, it's more along the lines of: "I am terrible at math and detect evil is more accurate anyways".

[Snowbluff]

So, feats are working out pretty well. :3

Well, if you're one of those spell books wizard/paladins, it isn't. :o

Snowbluff... did you just come to my aid? You do care!

[Snowbluff]

Snowbluff... did you just come to my aid? You do care!

Aid for only the low, low cost of your soul!

Uh... er... that's okay... I'll pass.

[Snowbluff]

Just accept... the bargain. It's really a steal!

[Blackhawk748]

Just accept... the bargain. It's really a steal!

Thaaaaaats so not creepy.

[LoyalPaladin]

Thaaaaaats so not creepy.

At least it wasn't aimed at you! What anime is that even?!

Just accept... the bargain. It's really a steal!

Well... uh... Hey, what's that over there?! *looks at Blackhawk* EVERYBODY RUN!

[stack]

Is this a feat thread or an anime gif thread?

Well, with Snowbluff around I suppose they are all the latter.

I'm just here so I don't get fined.

[NeoPhoenix0]

Snowbluff, remind me to never ask for your aid. I'm afraid I can no longer afford it.

... Where did everybody go?

That's okay. We can make a deal. Tell two of your friends about this wonderful proposition. To make up for the souls they sell to you, they can gather souls from two of their friends, and tell those friends to do likewise.
