Q205: Alright, this should be an easy question.
My planar Shepard needs a Plane to be attuned to. I have no idea which one, my original idea was to use the Postive Energy plane to make people explode in a massive boom, but that takes to long for them to get enough temp HP.

204: Some fey (pixies?) have amnesia arrows. There's also the river styx, thought bottles, and the mindrape spell. Heal should restore most forms, though break enchanctment might also be needed. I see. The amnesia came from the pixies then. I'm not a high enough level cleric to bring it back if heal or break enchantment can fix it. Here's the relevant text: Memory Loss
An opponent struck by this arrow must succeed on a DC 15 Will save or lose all memory. The save DC is Charisma-based and includes a +2 racial bonus. The subject retains skills, languages, and class abilities but forgets everything else until he or she receives a heal spell or memory restoration with limited wish, wish, or miracle. |

Q206: How can I get the alertness and endurance feats without investing my feat slots or class levels into it?
Dark Blue Ioun stone works for Alertness. |

I am constantly amazed by how many DM's ban Tomb of Battle. The book doesn't even exist! Quotes: By yes, she means no.
That explains so much about my life. hiicantcomeupwithacharacterthatisntaghostwhyisthatamijustretardedorsomething
Why would you even do this? It hurts my eyes and looks like you ate your keyboard before suffering an attack of explosive diarrhea. If using Genesis to hide your phylactry, set it at -300 degrees farenheit. See how do-gooders fare with a liquid atmosphere. |

Bumping up to the new page. FYI: anything more than "how long does it take to make someone explode with HP" probably warrants its own thread. |

 If you stop ignoring 289 pages telling what the intent is to stretch "more power" in your own god complexion of your interpretation trumps all to cover ability adjustments from aging then I will ignore a quarter page of rules that exist within a sidebar.
I think in this case the grammar is less important than whether the Str and Dex bonus provided to your created undead scales.

So, not an item, class ability, or feat. What other possible ways are open then? You've named the only three ways to do it without knowing if you can cast spells.

A gygaxian dungeon is like the world's most messed up game show.
Behind door number one: INSTANT DEATH!
Behind door number 2: A magic crown!
Behind door number 3: 4d6 giant bees, and THREE HUNDRED POUNDS OF HONEY! They don't/haven't, was the point. 3.5 is as dead as people not liking nice tits.
Sometimes, their tits (3.5) get enhancements (houserules), but that doesn't mean people don't like nice tits.
Though sometimes, the surgeon (DM) botches them pretty bad...
Best metaphor I have seen in a long time. I give you much fu. Three Errata for the Mage-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Barbarian-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Monks doomed to die,
One for the Wizard on his dark throne
In the Land of Charop where the Shadows lie. |

I was thinking something like a magical location or a ritual that will permanently grant the feats, it is for a shape shifting build I am working on,and I need those feats for master of many forms. The build is pretty locked tight for class levels and gains no spellcasting. It works right now but I would like 2 extra feats to spend towards getting channel the storm. |

Thanks for the info. I'm only 5th level. Going to be a while before I can help them. |

That would work. I was hoping there was another way but oh well. The build I was thinking of was warblade4/warshaper3/Shapeshifter1/Master of Many Forms7/Warshaper2/Warblade3. |

It's sub-optimal, but it's really cool. I thought about using a crow swarm lycanthrope as a character, because it sounded so badass. I mean, come on. Were-murder. |

Q208: How does damage reduction and iterative attacks work? Does each single attack get affected by DR, or is it the total damage vs DR?
Also were can I find iterative attack rules in the 3.5 material? I feel really blind for not finding it.

A208a: DR applies to each attack separately. A208b: From the d20 SRD on attack bonuses:A base attack bonus is an attack roll bonus derived from character class and level or creature type and Hit Dice (or combinations thereof). Base attack bonuses increase at different rates for different character classes and creature types. A second attack is gained when a base attack bonus reaches +6, a third with a base attack bonus of +11 or higher, and a fourth with a base attack bonus of +16 or higher. Base attack bonuses gained from different sources, such as when a character is a multiclass character, stack. |

Base attack bonuses gained from different sources, such as when a character is a multiclass character, stack. Sorry for being unclear, I meant the in-depth rules about iterative attacks. Things like Damage Reduction, Weapon Enchantments (which are logically on each weapon hit) and Sneak Attacks (which are (imo) illogically on each weapon hit), but I couldn't find a source book to support it. For Sneak Attacks I use All About Sneak Attacks (Part Three) as official rule source (other wise I never would believed you can get insane amounts of d6s for iterative sneak attacks). I assume things like these must be in the books as well, the question is where? |

I always found the Sneak Attack perfectly clear in that it is applicable to iterative attacks. It says "The rogue’s attack deals extra damage any time her target would be denied a Dexterity bonus to AC (whether the target actually has a Dexterity bonus or not), or when the rogue flanks her target."
That leaves no doubt. The usage of the singular "attack" is of no issue, since it applies "each time".
It's the only thing (together with UMD, maybe) that makes Rogues worthwhile.
