Sounds like a great idea to me...as long as it isn't horrendously overpriced like the Improved Damage Reduction ability is.
I'd like to see a rage power which gives the barbarian a spell resistance while raging. It would be an expansion to the enchantment bonus they currently get.
Seconded. The classic sword-and-sorcery barbarian disdains the fragile spiderwebs of magic and makes effete magic-weavers quake in their silk shoes. A method for the Pathfinder barbarian to do the same would be a good thing.
1 The post about a rage power that gives spell resistance is good but a smart wizard knows about spell resistance and will just acid fog you or something... really spell resistance isn't a bad a deteriment to "good" wizards as advertised
I have a few barbarian suggestions...
Over on the charops boards I write the consolidated Barbarians handbook along with zendu...
This probbably goes in a different thread but... basically,
1. the barbarians shuold not have to pay to maintain thier rage. Use the origianal rage and add rage points...
So you can then have a rage power like
Extend rage: 2 rp your rage lasts an additional round you may use this anytime your rage would end.
but thats just part of the problem.
A couple more.
Ignorance: “He is a barbarian, and thus thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature”
12 RP, Barbarian may ignore any spell effects ongoing or cast at him until the start of his next turn, *he recieves a will save to treat any summoned or gated creature and its effects as thought they were summoned by the shadow conjuration spell
(Unlike spell resitance this or a similar wording would actually DO something about forcecage and the likes)
Alternatively and proabbably more palettable to some would be use this ability to treat any spell effect you encounter as "Will negates" but only for the barbarian.
Beligerance:
"Why do you still stand! Kneel, kneel before your king!" Aeon glanced down at his party kneeling at his side, Pssting him or tugging at his pant leg. He the leveled a steely eyed glance around the audience chamber, leveled staring hard at the king. "Kneel in the prescence of lowlanders? and spit in the direction of the High Protector who had been shouting orders at him. "No."
6 rage points
(ex) All opponents with an intelligence score within a 30 foot radius must make a will save or are forced spend thier next action attacking the barbarian.(this may be with spells or whatever attack is standard for that opponent) You may spend 3 rp points each round to extend this ability for another round. The opponents are allowed a new saving throw each round to end this effect.
