Re: Most Unique/Niche PrCs
Planar handbook had Ardent Dilettante, which required you to become an ungodly mess of multiclassing as you progressed, since in order to take higher levels of the class, you had to meet new requirements. To be a 10th level Ardent dilettante, you needed 8 ranks in perform, five ranks in five other skills each tied to a different ability score, you needed to be proficient with four martial.weapons, one exotic weapon, know 1st level arcane and divine spells, have visited six different planes, and have died and come back to life.
I guess an Elf Beguiler with a one level dip in cleric could get in with minimal fuss, and it does have some pretty cool tricks, but talk about a complicated class.Steam ID: The Great Squark

Re: Most Unique/Niche PrCs
I will never pronounced that correctly. I will not even try, i think.
Personally, i like the class, i use it with Sha'ir to solve the dual casting problem, Planar Touchstone (Catalogue of Enlighmennts) to solve the first proficiency problem, with later a dip into Seeker of Misty Isles or Dragonslayer. After the first 3 levels, you have enough skill points to solve the skill problems. It's hard, but you can make it. I actually love that class and its fluff. I do concur that it's pretty niche.Last edited by Petrocorus; 2014-11-09 at 08:23 PM.

Re: Most Unique/Niche PrCs
If we're allowing PF material, I love the idea (if maybe not the implementation) of the Halfling Opportunist. "I use my opponent to do stuff for me!" feels great thematically, given the nature of halflings.

Re: Most Unique/Niche PrCs
Jade phoenix mage is pretty niche in that there's only a handful of them ever in existance. Def not a PRC for the masses. That class also has one of the most interesting prepreqs in that in order to be one, you have to have been one in a previous life.

Kaorti supply the resin on the everything, presumably. Kythons don't have resin and grossness-covered nests, Kaorti build everything out of it.

Re: Most Unique/Niche PrCs
And yet, if the door isn't magic, they have nothing for it. They also have nothing (in that ability) to deal with magic locks, especially on things that are not doors, such as boxes. Or barred doors, if the bar is not magic. Or really good nonmagical locks, if they lose their silver keys.
So you know, useful, but it'd be great if they could just open and close a barred ogre-size door without noticing the log in the way.

Re: Most Unique/Niche PrCs
Well, by the time you're level 10 in the class, you're probably gonna have enough Open Lock to open most doors anyway. Not too hard to optimize it. If I wanted a character who was completely and utterly immune to doors, all it would take is one extremely thematic feat (Item Familiar: Warder's Keys and a +3 dex bonus passes Amazing Lock's DC on a 1)
