Can't we look into making it a viable class to go even higher in? Love to see some evil paladins walking the land.

As for how to improve it... think Paladin but reverse it. Though I guess for pve that would be horrible... do we even have good creatures?

Agree to disagree.. there's a reason why they still don't have a server population and everyone who plays one quits. They need epic level help and damage progression as stated in my PMs and threads. I believe the damage should scale on level and/or class progression so they aren't so powerful mid game and more powerful end game.

I just made a bunch of tests with it, it powned wormthrax (10 hp lost) and the frost giant king (was mid hp), without consumables.

I'm obviously joking there :P (but I don't joke when I think blackguard doesn't need anything).

Very similar build as myself, mines a bit more min-max, still hits like a girl considering you have an "oh shit" button and are a worse fighter outside of rage.

Edit: actually, i have a thought.. could you somehow make it if you had a 2H weapon equipped you get more bonus damage since you won't have the shield AC? That has to be a good compromise right? Lose 4 AC, gain +2d6 damage? Glove bonus element damage still transfers over in bear form, but you get an innate +2d6 slashing damage if you have a 2H weapon instead of a shield.

I would love to see one or more of the high BAB classes/prestige classes that really push you hard into a dex-based character get uncanny dodge fairly early in their progression. Classes like:
Swashbuckler, Invisible Blade, Tempest, and/or Dervish. I don't believe these classes are particularly weak, but making a non-stealthing dex based melee build that doesn't have Uncanny Dodge seems like a really bad idea. Might open up a few new avenues for people to take.

Order of the Bow Initiate's 10th level capstone feat, Extended Sharpshooting, still needs repair and without it functioning correctly there is simply no point taking the class at all.

I'd jump back onto this class in a jiffy if it ever was fixed.
