--Anything good for Intimidate?
--What's the Bard feat?
--WHAT IS TOME EXPERTISE?
On the CO IRC, generally as TorpedoFish. Vain? Me? NEVER.

You're the straightest shooter I know on these boards. You don't mince words about your opinions, and I respect that about you. The whole fiasco you described in the last State of the CO Forum was particularly enlightening (and kind of disappointing with regards to how they see us).
Ah, Tsuyo. When your post isn't one sentence long full of asterisks, you have much wisdom to share with us .
From the IRC: (19:52) RuinsFate: You know, I was gonna agree with something PalOn said... but I think I'm just gonna through my lot in with tsuyo's sudden train-wreck grade interjection.
(01:45) Nausicaa: yes your rage is a righteous rage :D
(01:45) Nausicaa: righteous rage of torpedo
My sci-fi writing.

Any objections to spoiling the kickers for Tome/two-handed weapon expertise? (and no totem expertise? I find that surprising.)

OK, Berserker and Defender don't really seem to go together in my mind.

Druid - Protector - Primal Controller, uses of Summon Natural Ally instead of Daily attack powers,
Does this mean that you cannot create a Protector Druid and take the regular Druid daily attack powers?
Another day, another three or four entries to my Ignore List.

-- Skald Training - Prereq: Bard, majestic word - You swap your majestic word for the skald's aura power. You and your allies can use minor actions to benefit from the aura only as many times durin gan encounter as you would be able to use majestic word.
--A typo, sorry. ^^;

The no OA one is something I was hoping for, but nothing for generating flanking while occupying an enemy square. :-(
