Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground XXII
My computer pooped out while I was in the 6th hour of finalizing the build. Meaning the Word file got completely trashed. So I guess I'm out. I'll also be looking for my trick!

Build submitted; even if I don't place well, I gotta say I'm really happy with this one.

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground XXII
I'm not going to get this story together in time .
I might post the build later though, I was pretty happy with it.

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground XXII
Just send it in anyway, someone in the last one didnt have a backstory and it was fine. Nowhere in the rules does it say you need one.

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground XXII
Hmm. Should have submitted my skulk shadowdancer/chameleon (featuring dervish).
prepared to fill in a judging slot for when someone drops out.

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground XXII
*is vaguely surprised to see only one unarmed entry*
Still, some very impressive examples of the more standard dervish builds, and nice to see Binder being used more.Last edited by term1nally s1ck; 2011-07-17 at 07:51 PM.

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground XXII
Huh, no one used my trick. I was imagining a goliath Dungeoncrasher with Knockback. Why? Because unlike most people with Knockback, a Dervish can chase someone as they keep pushing them around. I couldn't come up with any good zones or hazards to push them into, though, and then I got too busy to finish. I had a few other tricks in mind as well, many of which got incorporated into one of these builds or another, but the pursuing bull-rusher was the big thing.
Still, should be fun to see the judging. Bit of doubling up in a few places, it seems . . . but I guess that's to be expected.In the Beginning Was the Word, and the Word Was Suck: A Guide to Truenamers

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground XXII
Glad to see some thri-kreen love! My main concept was a thri-kreen monk 2/totemist 3/Soul Eater 1/Dervish 10. I wasn't sure if Girallon Arms added 4 claws to the thri-kreen's initial 4, but if so I would have had 8 claws + 1 bite + 1 unarmed (via Snap Kick) for 10 attacks. Toss in Soul Eater and A Thousand Cuts, and I think you can drain 20 levels in one round. However, didn't know if it worked that way.
My other idea was to qualify for Dervish entirely via bonus feats, with a Frostblood Half-Orc swordsage 2/fighter 2/ranger 3/dervish 10/bloodclaw master 3. This would have freed up my actual feats for Lightning Maces and the TWF feat tree, allowing me plenty of chances at free attacks while wielding keen aptitude kukris. However, it was totally unoriginal (especially since I lifted the Frostblood Ranger trick to swap out Endurance from Mordekai in the most recent appetizer edition).
Oh well, enough rambling...i'll post criteria and start judging tomorrow morning.

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground XXII
I was trying to figure out some way to make it work with a roof jumper winged kobold of some kind, but I couldn't figure out a way to regain altitude, perhaps footsteps of the deity and jump?

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground XXII
My entry fell apart due to trying to shove too many things into it...
I wanted some way of taking advantage of the main advantage that Dervish Dance has over Pounce (namely, that you can move after the attacks in addition to before), and create something with Burrow or Earth Glide, so that it could pop from the ground, full attack, and pop back in. I also got it in my head that I really wanted to combine a level or two of the Soul Eater PrC with this concept, and use either the psionic power Graft Weapon or the spell Flame Whips, so I could count both as wielding a slashing weapon and as using a natural attack.
I had the skeleton of a build (Cobra Strike Monk 2/PsyWar 2/Ardent 4/Soul Eater 2/Dervish 10) down, but the feat requirements were too much, and I couldn't quite get it to come together. Next time, I'll have to focus a bit more!

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground XXII
My first idea was a VoP Totemist/Dervish/Sword of Righteousness, for the various natural weapons. I couldn't find a way to yam all those feats in without flaws, though.
