Hello ladies and gentlemen, this is a thread to post ideas on handbooks. They are really endless, as you can optimize anything you can think off.

So, out of my mind and from private discussions, here is a list of topics that haven't got a handbook of sorts yet:

  • Incantatrix (sure, everyone knows it's powerful, but it needs a list of spellcraft bonuses, powerful things you can do with snatch spell, suggested metamagic, etc).
  • Blasting (this is actually chaos_redefined's idea and he is up to it).
  • Anima Mage (what vestiges work well, what metamagic to get, what to take after anima, etc).
  • Ardent!
  • Barbarian!
  • ToB classes (although, not actually needed).
  • Rogue (i'm thinking that i might do this next, but not soon).
  • Sorcerer! (there are a lot of unique stuff out there to make them different than wizards).

You can maybe find help from other members this way; it's better if two work on a topic than a single mind.

I'd like to see a Thrower Handbook for builds centered on thrown weapons, and maybe a Dragonwrought Handbook for the crazy things those little kobolds can do.

Well, as I said, I'll work up the Knight's Handbook and update it, given time.

Somebody had an idea I saw to do a handbook about the various affiliations one can join. I think its a good idea.

There's not a formal handbook for Incarnates, though I like Todd's Incarnate by the Numbers thread, but its not a very comprehensive list.

A Trapsmith guide might be useful; its my favorite Rogue PrC, currently (maybe thats for the Rogue book).

Miniguides to:
Death Attack
Crafting (magical & non-magical)

might be useful (I haven't seen an item creation feat on a CO regular build since... well, its been a while).

if its a wish list,

a leadership book would be nice..

also

a book on the mechanics of damage..

- SA dice
- Power attack
- Smite
- Unarmed

that sorta of thing..

otherwise,

if someone has a hand book that isnt already on the co wiki handbooks list please add it...

i sorted everything by source book, but i could really careless how it organized as long as it makes some sort of sense...

I may be working on a Truenamer Handbook as part of my research for fixing the whole damn class.

And I will probably do a Gestalt Handbook and Legacy Weapon booklet if I feel the motivation.


Edit: Hell, I may even do a MoI handbook.
