Wish List !!

(This is a character related post about my current D&D warlord, Kharask Torn Flames)

Mr. DM! this is a revised wish list and items update about what Kharask has, and stuff i'd be interested in. If you already have the perfect item lined up, like that sweet ass ring, then use your ideas over any presented here.

Primary Weapon - Mauling Maul +2 - Structural Damage always appeals to me. The weapons is really cool, but i'm not thinking it to be carreer based. If it is, theres no problem. Higher versions of the weapon that had the potential to affect the artifact rings would be something i'd go in for. Damage is what his weapons there for, and his weapon daily's dont matter much. I'd look for crit effect stuff and properties on weapons. Kharask doesnt mess around with weapons much, they are there to put hurt onto things.

Secondary Weapons - Javelin +2 skyrender - I like this is a primary ranged weapon. Javelins and throwing hammers would be there as good secondary weapon drops, but i'd just leave alot of that to us buying them. Kharask uses the skyrender about once an adventure, so it isnt a priority.

Armor - Exalted Chainmail +2 - Unless you get some better idea, i'd like that to be career. I dont know what you'd do about the armor material type though. Kharask's armor is abysmal, but i dont want it to fall that far behind. Still, i'd rather keep the daily power over the armor type.

Feet slot Item - Currently dont have any. Looking for movement enhancement. I leave alot of the ideas for this slot to you. Movement is not really a priority for me at this point. The battle tends to come to us, and he usually moves after the enemies, so he doesnt always have that far to go. If you have an idea, like some strange dragonborn specific footwear that appears later on, then save the drop for that item, no need to force a drop on something i wouldnt use much, or could by myself in a few levels.

Arm Slot Item - Iron Armbands of Power - There useless, gonna melt them down into magic dust and save that for a later item. My new ring tops the bonus they give. Dont really know many arm items that may be useful. If you see something that lets me aid or protect my allies, or gives bonuses or abilities that would help my healing or warlord powers then go for that. I'm pretty much covered on damage bonuses for a while.

Hand Slot Item - Currently dont have any. Not looking for anything that gives item bonus to damage, because my super crazy ring would more than likely top it. Again, no ideas for this off the top of my head. If you see something that screams warlord or Kharask, just use that.

Head Slot Item - Helm of Heroes- I like this item, and will more than likely keep it unless you come up with or find something better. This gives a +2 save v.s. fear, and the daily lets me turn a basic attack i grant into an at will or encounter attack.

Neck slot item - Brooch of no regrets +2 - Lets me give a save to an ally with a +2 bonus if they fail it. Not bad, and it is in line with what i want out of daily abilities as far as helping allies out. If you see something that you think would be better, and along the same lines, then drop away.

Ring slot Item - Ring of the Dragon Emperor - yeah.. career. i dont want to lose it. in fact, i'd like to find out about its history and make it a permanent item, maybe upgrading it with a parcel at epic levels. Even if it doesnt get upgraded, i'd career it in a heartbeat.

Ring slot item - Other one is empty - Kharask will be trying to find hints about getting ahold of one or two of the metallic rings, so the party can fight the other ring wielders on equal footing. (and prevent possible character corruption). If that doesnt happen, a ring that gives daily's to help allies, or help healing would be great. Some kind of defense ring might not be bad, since Kharask's AC may be horrendous at higher levels.

Waist - Balderick of Tactical positioning - Good idea, just doesnt tend to work out much with the dynamics of the group. Not bad, i just never get a chance to use its property, so any thing you replace it with would work. Not looking for anything specific, something along the same line might work, as far as an item i can use for support of allies, or help my warlord abilities be more effective.

Other - Battle Standard - Yeah.. Artifact standard will be my career one of those.

Strange or misc - The lion is cool, shame they did not give upgraded versions of those. Save alot of the odd stuff for the magic wielding characters, though if something screams Kharask or warlord, drop away.

Ok, thats it. Obviously i'm focusing on his ability to aid allies first. Combat effectiveness is important, but really only on the damaging end. I dont really need to bolster his defense much, because azriel and erantaelik, even merric, have alot of ways to make attacks not happen, or happen on them. Inspirational items would be fine too. I could see using items that added enhancements to diplomacy or charisma based checks, or other items that had qualities that would seem more regal, or commanding. Kharask is a beast on his own, but his real strength is making his comrades unstoppable, so anything that helps me keep them on there feet would be great.

(Thats it. I'll have more stuff soon!)
