I think the concept is sound, kinda. I was thinking that he would be a pretty rare mage, as a dwarf who likes to tinker and craft, but he could lend a hand through the use of a reach weapon instead of a crossbow or sling and use Craft (Alchemy) to throw things into combat. I was reading the forums here and had some inspiration.

In our weekly games we can only use the core rule book for classes.

With Universalist, he gets the Hand of the Apprentice and I thought to bind the spear.

We rolled stats. I rolled amazing. Here is my idea.
Level 3 with a progression of Wiz, Fig, Wiz. Don't know if I should do anymore fighter as I advance. This is the first time I have tried to play a Wiz in 10 years but I am a good role player and know how to use the skills and abilities. I just want to make sure the character is well put together. The majority of the group are min/max. With a few of us trying to do different things to add flavor.

Feats: Scribe Scroll (free) and Throw Anything

Anyone have any ideas to make him better or on what I can do as I advance? I was considering Elf also.

I am looking for ideas on how to best deal with a character that uses a whip to give him a 15' reach and he trips everything in combat. He never causes damage really, but he trips everything so the others can get the reap the creatures -4 AC for prone and the free AOO on standing which takes a move action.

Basically he trips and everyone cannot not get hit at all for the rest of combat as the creatures try to stand and get beat down by the group with AOOs. Rinse and repeat for the next creature.

Currently I have resorted to keep the intelligent monsters attacking from the prone, animal INT would make a boar or bear keep trying to stand to attack. But I need better alternatives. At the higher levels I will have multi-legged creatures and floting or flying creatures, but I am having troble now at the lower levels.

Thanks for any replies.
