Fun with D&D Prestige Classes
After our last D&D session most of use leveled up. Because we are playing pre-genned characters the GM has sent out an email with some options for what Prestige Classes everyone could go into (or work toward). My options seemed pretty...nasty.
With Panzer being an Orc Barbarian 1 / Fighter 5 (before leveling) with a nasty habit of outputting massive damage, here are the two options he sent me:
Paul, there are two prestige classes that might suit you. The Eye of Gruumsh prestige class would complement your rage abilities and your natural armor class. Being able to blind your opponent with regurgitated stomach acid also has to be worth some style points. You need one more feat to qualify, so you could conceivably start this class at 9th level.
Another interesting option is Frenzied Berserker. This class gives the character some incredible combat bonuses in the form of a +6 STR bonus while frenzied and feats like Diehard and Improved Cleave. These abilities come at the cost of being a toned-down version of the Incredible Hulk. If you take damage you have to make a DC 20 Will check to not go into frenzy. While frenzied you will attack enemies by preference but if you run out of enemies (or none are present) you can easily turn those nasty abilities against your fellow adventurers. And since you have the fastest land speed in the group...To qualify for Frenzied Berserker you will need two more feats, so you could start this class at 10th level.
Needless to say I'm leaning toward Frenzied Berserker just for the fun factor.
