AT half-babness isn't fun.

Limited Wish us better!

Limited Wish for me is a level 7 spell, which I don't get until 13. So I was thinking Greater Heroism, double the fun, still only one person. Or maybe Flame arrows for TK fun? I am thinking Darkvision made permanent would be nice.

Greater Heroism is really nice.

Well, hell. Heroism is Enchantment, my opp school, nope.

Cold Ice Strike is nice and Disinitegrate is always handy.

So Greater Named Bullet would allow me to add 48 points of damage to a single bolt on a crit, but I'd need to crit, and it would only affect 1 of my dozen bolts thrown. Not sure it's worth it.

I could take Greater Heroism, and would be able to cast it 4x/day. Or Disintegrate, which would do 24d6. Never rolled that many dice on an attack. I only get one spell - opinions?

Also, I get to forget one spell and pick a new one - Flame Arrow would be great for enhancing TK bolts, but I don't really have a 3rd-level spell I want to get rid of for it. Any other spells that bump the damage for a bunch of projectiles I should look at. Gravity Bow would be cool, but it specifically says it affects things fired from your bow or crossbow.

Hell, I guess I could cast Greater Heroism on myself and all my TK bolts would hit more and do lots more damage - in fact, if they all hit, it would add 48 points of damage, but I could use it over multiple rounds.

And then you could cast greater heroism on me to help offset my silly +6 BAB!

Greater Heroism is definitely nice.

The thing to remember about Disintegrate is that it's surprisingly versatile. It can be especially effective against things that have mediocre fort saves but are typically immune to fort save related stuff (like undead). It can also be used to make a door where there is none or to destroy otherwise indestructible force effects.

I think Firiel should work on things that make her sneakiness stronger and Asht'el should pick things that are handy again and again, especially in a fight. Jametor can duplicate those spells or pick something completely off the wall because it will be easier for him to have the unusual spell in his repertoire.

As for which spells those might be, I don't have time to browse at the moment. Painting projects are calling.


Male Elf--Drow (Jamleus) Wizard 14| HP 80/80 | AC 15 | T 15 | FF 11 | CMD 22 | Fort +7 | Ref +10 | Will +11 | Init +4 | Perc +20 | Sense Motive +18 |Effects: Mage Armor +4 AC

I've picked my spells, one is permanency because if we need darkvision, we can put it on folks for long time, plus..yeah I wanted it.

I picked another evocation spell because I have to and I can't recall it right now. If we could get some place I can buy scrolls and such...

Next level I'll get Limited wish and something else. I am hoping we don't have to fight much more, I am starting to get tapped out on spells.


M Ifrit Sorcerer 14 | HP 92/92 | AC 15 | T 14 | FF 12 (with mage armor 19 / 14 / 16) | CMD 19 | Fort +11 | Ref +10 | Will +12 | Init +9 | Perc +13

I think that's a good way to think about it, Randall, and it supports my thinking of taking Greater Heroism, so I'll go for that. Too bad Jametor can't make it permanent.


Moar Mappity

I'm going to give Xiddik a day or two to get his internet working and get back to us; otherwise we'll go ahead and move on. Feel free to continue to post in the meantime, though... I will still respond and attempt to keep everyone engaged. :)


Female Kobold

Sorry, I was hoping Feral would relay for me—I was having a bit of an internet blackout. Barely managed to pop onto the game I'm GMing to let them know.

I'm back now. I'll get halfway leveled up so I can post.

EDIT: Ah, looks like Feral did let Oladon know. My mistake.

Changelog:
Level 8 bard (favored class: +1 skill)
New 3rd-level spell: Major image, and replacing haste with displacement or cure critical wounds. I'll decide later today.
Ability Score Increase: Strength +1
Skills: 4 ranks in Perception, 3 in Survival (I'm tired of Xiddik flubbing what she's supposed to be good at).

FYI - I'll be at a local con (with Feral!) starting tonight through the weekend, so my posting will be minimal to nonexistent for that time.


Moar Mappity

Slacker.

Just kill both of them with fire and then we'll get less slackerly people.

By the way, I got my promotion. I am now a supervisor. Got a nice raise, have more responsibility now and that means really no posting at work except for maybe a couple of times taking a break here and there.

Ugh, sounds responsible. I have steadfastly refused all promotions that smelled like responsibility. jk

Seriously, congratulations. Maybe I can keep up with your posting rate now.

Congrats!

With all that extra money you should hire someone to post for you.


Moar Mappity

Guys, my dog is hurt, so I may not be able to get a post up until tonight. Would you guys be willing to pass this along to any games I'm in with you? Only have time for one message.

So sorry to hear about the dog - hope all is well!


Moar Mappity

She's gonna be okay, she just managed to break some glass in the back yard and slice her foot open pretty badly. :(

Good to hear Oladon.

Also, in news that affects you none: I got my computer moved back into my computer room and got the two monitor setup. 27" main monitor with a 24" secondary. Trying to decide if I want to add another 24"...all at 1920x1080. I am not rich enough for higher rez.

I have a laptop with two external monitors. I'm not sure I really gain enough from them to use all three. I'm tempted to just use the externals, but I still use the LCD off the laptop right now.

If I could physically position them so they were in a line, it would make a big difference, but I can only get the externals horizontal at this point and I constantly have trouble rolling my mouse from the LCD to screen one - it looks like I should move the mouse off the top of my screen, but it's actually a move to the right.

If that doesn't make sense, it's just a constant source of D'oh! moments in my day.


Female Kobold

Hey, guys, really sorry about the inactivity. My last day of classes is Thursday, and between the tests and Thanksgiving (we're doing a Thanksgiving celebration here, and I volunteered to make three pies and pumpkin bread), I'm really busy. After Thursday, I'll be able to post much more frequently!

Beginning on Saturday, I'll be on a two-week work trip. I will still be able to post most days, but my schedule, internet access and time zone will all be very different, so posting may be a bit erratic.


Moar Mappity

Sorry, guys. Crazy stuff going on... I'll have to post from home this evening.

Work has been hectic, working late most nights. Get home drained. Oh and yay it's review time, so I have to have my own self review by Friday end of business. Haven't started it.

Letting all of my games know this. I recently got a promotion to supervisor. Until there is an office of sorts for me, I am stuck on the floor with my direct reports. Today, it was announced one of the guys on the other team would slide back under me. He's a bit of a whiny baby, so I am going to have to stay off the internet during the day, even when I am on break or lunch. That means I'll be posting at night and weekends only. If that means I need to bow out, I understand.

My take: I see no reason for anything so drastic. Everyone knows my availability is variable and I have often been in a similar situation, timewise.

I have to say it: I absolutely love the word choice for Xiddik's dialog.

Thanks! I've been taking a lot of inspiration from my own experiences in Chile. Languages are hard, especially when you want to use simple turns of phrases like "nevermind" or "already".


Moar Mappity

I won't be posting much today (Wednesday) due to a roadtrip... and will likely be down to 1/day posting after that until about the 4th or 5th.


Moar Mappity

Merry Christmas, everyone. Please enjoy a free reroll, usable once between now and the end of this book, as a Christmas present from me to you.

Moar Mappity

Hi Antal! Merry Christmas to you! :)

The rest of you should know that I'm going to be on the road without internet access most of tomorrow, and possibly won't have access most of Wednesday either.

Stuff's been busy here.

Sorry about my radio silence - my life partner and I have found ourselves in a influenza hot zone with an ineffective vaccine. I only have time to pop in to let you know I yet live.

Glad to hear you're alive! Stay that way!

Still do, in fact.
