Techsmith summoned possible/viable?

Unread post by Groburn »

I was wondering if it's possible to make a Wizard/Pale Master/Thaumaturge/techsmith.
As the summons don't really do much in epic levels by themselves i was wondering if gondsman+vampire+cohort are possible combination. Anybody ? Also what's the max HD for the gondsman and is it better than the pale master vampire?
Does anybody have final stats of HD23 gondsman ?

But if you ask me perma-summons like techsmith, palemaster, Blackguard, Dreadlord, Thaumaturge, Animal companion shouldnt stack. The RP is rather silly with most combinations.

Not with techsmith, it needs cleric lvls.

No, it doesn't, you can make a wizard Techsmith. The cleric requirement has been removed.

The Gondsman gets a max HD of 23.
A gondsman is a construct, is made of metal and wood. The Techsmith can create a gondsman in one of two sizes: Small (Str 13, Dex 14, Con 14, Int 4, Wis 13, Cha 6) Or medium: (Str 15, Dex 12, Con 14, Int 4, Wis 13, Cha 6). The gondsman has +5 natural armor, neutral alignment, d10 for hitdice and is equal in level to the techsmith's classlevel + 3 + the techsmith's hit dice divided by 3.
As to the final stats, the Techsmith influences that himself.

Funny, I asked repeatedly on other threads if it had been removed, no dev or admin answered. Thus I assumed it had been left in. Could anybody with clearance change the pertinent information: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=49035.

Good. I rather like the mage techsmith better anyways.
