Submitted for Opinion: Revamped Drakov

[A G Thing]

Just out of curiousity Big Bad Jack why didn't you give him the feat Hawk's Cry from Legacy of Blood?
I don't have my PH2 at the moment so I don't understand the Intimidating Strike completely in the feat progression but it does not seem to be a part of the chain and if I remember correctly it just causes opponents to be shaken while Hawk's Cry can cause those below 6th lvl to become frightend. I just wonder because I am not sure on the effect of the above feat!

Other than that Great Work on the Revamp!!!

Indeed. Though he would need to use a piercing weapon for that.

Is not a short sword a piercing weapon?

Yes indeed. A shortsword is a piercing weapon, of course. I knew that...

AGT is right in mentioning the LotB family feats. Drakov should probably have a few of those. And at least of course the Drakov family traits. But then why not also give him a few levels in one of the family classes. Hmmm....

Also AGT: using the handy feat index i linked to in the post above you can easily look up the feat Intimidating Strike

Thank you The Giamarga as that is a very handy link indeed!!!

And at least of course the Drakov family traits.

Don't forget the Talon traits from SotDR excluding the SR as his is already better, but the bonuses on Will saves, Intimidate and Sense Motive make for formidable additions to Drakov's statistics...

But then why not also give him a few levels in one of the family classes. Hmmm....

As for the levels in LoB PrC I could see some cases where they would apply but it would be an entirely different revamp if done with the prestige classes.

Perhaps Raptor Knight if this version was more ranged oriented maybe but I think that Hawkmaster would be too much as it could just be represented with the already plentiful ranks of Handle Animal he has been given.

While he is obsessive about the art of Falconry he is not as specialized in it as some could be, so I think if at all it should be one lvl max and to get that level he would need Wild Empathy so it would require further multiclassing...

As it is I still like the Revamp and think it is very well done...
