#WARBLADE MANEUVERS 3.5 HOW TO#

They go into the flavor behind it pretty well in ToB, you should read it before you say it's just for min-maxers. Otherwise, play a barbarian and try to use some teamwork with those around you. If you are a player who keeps dying because your DM throws portals of instant death, basilisks, and evil 20th level wizards in every encounter- then by all means play a Warblade. I think Warblade is a good class for a set of players with a DM who doesn't really know what he's doing and tends to throw overpowered/underpowered encounters at his or her players.

#WARBLADE MANEUVERS 3.5 HOW TO#

Given, I only despise the Warblade and ToB classes because as a DM I know how to tailor my campaigns to my players. Why would he ever talk to the wizard about spells, if he wasn't affected by half of the spells that could be casted, and his reflex/fortitude save was the highest it could be in the game? Teamwork and communication with everyone playing practically disappeared, because he didn't really have any weaknesses. It literally took death spells to keep him away from things, and at that point the game ceased being very fun. One of my players practically gave up playing because he was so bored, his character was just a combat monster that couldn't be stopped. The party fell apart and had to either decide to ban ToB classes or have everyone play them because they were so broken.īeing that overpowered and so well rounded has led to disastrous role playing attempts. Encounters were pretty much beaten by him and by him alone. No mind control, poisons, enchanting magic, or any magic for that matter could stop him. I had a player who optimized his Warblade to play Iron Heart Surge in every encounter. The maneuvers are just crazy overpowered and can be repeated any amount of times. The game would be pretty broken if a wizard was allowed to regain his spells per day by literally doing nothing for half a second or attacking. Compared to a barbarian, you have the highest hit die, the highest base attack bonus, proficiency with some of the hardest hitting weapons, and you get spells that are pretty much overpowered because you can regain your spell slot by making a swift action. Your party has to conform to the Tome of Battle classes, or be severely out classed by this player. It pretty much outscales every other class designed in the players handbook. Here is pretty much everything I have wrong with it. It's poorly worded by the creators, and from the perspective of a DM a total nightmare to play with. They are almost impossible to role play because they seem to be a class for meta players and people that want to optimize instead of play the game for the experience.
