Strangler's AC is 38 because of the Barkskin he cast in the prep round. Also note that he has DR 5/-- (from Elemental Body IV).

Sorry, for interupting, Picture back handing a guy with your shield. it is more visually accurate. I would also rule a 'my bad', as it would completely change the outcome of last round and most of the curretn round.... Sorry for interupting. JMO. Great playtest BTW.

I have thought about it, and yes, I wasn't being imaginative enough - I think it's reasonable to try and shield-bash with reach (if you have reach, of course). It's one of those problems where the picture-what-I'm-thinking of the PC doesn't quite align with that of the DM. I find it to be common in pbem's. If this were a campaign, I would do a rewind. Since we're just trying to plow through this, I think we can keep going as is.

Thanks, that brings his damage down by 23 points.

The round 4 post is edited to reflect that now.

Strangler full attacks the barbed devil again, missing completely...

Umm...are the barbed devils (target of bralani's new attack) resistant to holy damage as well? holy damage is good damage.

My mistake again. I keep reading the DR entries in a very dyslexic manner, sorry about that. The barbed devils have DR 10/good, and the bralanis have good-aligned attacks, so they do bypass the barbed devils' DR. I can't edit that post anymore, but that will be updated for round 5.

Grumble will full attack the Horned Devil.

He will attack with his axe then activate the lion shield to have it do it's attacks.

His last attack will be the Lion's shield slam

My shield has been enlarged, does its damage increase for its bites?

I will roll the 2d6 but should it be 2d8?

Penetrating attack!

Yes, we really should be calculating the damage of enlarged weapons as well as unarmed attacks, but I haven't done that. Please do take that into account when rolling damage dice.


Elmora will move within 30' but above her. Activating her flight power of her celestial armor. Elmora will move within 30' of the Horned Devil. Using Silver arrows, Elmora will fire her holy bow at the Horned Devil. (Normal, not using rapid shot, I will just use the hastened extra shot.)

I can't wait to see what he looks like at 20th level, he's gonna be a monster...with improved vital strike...and that last attack...plus his final abilities....

If only ... that stunning attack is pretty powerful. I've been trying to keep him single classed in the hopes of seeing how they could keep up with the front line fighters. It doesn't look so good. Multi-classing will help, but again, that's what I was trying to avoid.

Scarab Sages

Just think of a one-on-one fight between Grumble and Sleepy, the only advantage you have over Grumble is speed, Grumble has higher AC and higher attack values, that's why I made the monk I did, it can actually keep up with the fighter on the offensive side. did you check out my monk?

Yes, I did have a look. I remember looking at it a while back as well. I think it certainly does what you're trying to do - put him in the ballpark with the fighters.

Depending on what the final Pathfinder monk looks like, I'll keep that one in mind.

Plus it makes him customizable, so you can play a Wuxia type of monk if that's what you want. Versatility definitely makes that monk playable.

Round 6

Battlemap

Air Elementals 1 and 3 move to attack the exposed barbed devil on Strangler's orders.
Air Elemental 1 provokes AoO from Horned Devil (any movement to within reach of barbed devil is inside chain's threat range)
d20+25=38, hit, 24 points, 19 after DR
Stun DC 27 Fort save, d20+9=17, failure, Elemental 1 is stunned for 3 rounds
Air Elemental 3 attack: d20+19=36, hit, damage 2d8+4=9 points, 0 points after DR

Sleepy Monk is stunned and cannot take any actions.

Barbed Devil 1 takes a 5' step and full attacks Strangler:
Claw 1 d20+18=26, miss
Claw 2 d20+18=23, miss

Horned Devil sees that the real threat is Grumbly. Full attack on the dwarf.
Chain 1 d20+25=45, hit, damage 2d6+15=22
Chain 1 crit confirm: d20+25=26, fails to confirm
50% concealment miss chance: d100=30%, attack actually misses, no damage, no stun
Chain 2 d20+20=31, miss
Chain 3 d20+15=16, miss
Bite d20+22=25, miss
Tail d20+22=30, miss
Horned Devil howls in complete frustration.

Bartimus is stunned and cannot take any actions.

Barbed Devil 2 has Bart grappled:
Maintain Grapple: d20+20+5=31 vs DC 15 + 15 + 1 size: 31, still grappled
Impale damage: 3d8+9=26 points

Elmora casts Haste on the party. Grumble and Sleepy are already hasted, the air elementals are 30+ feet from Elmora so are out of effect, but the rest of the party gains Haste.

Bralani 1 moves to cast healing on Bartimus, he is healed 18 points.

Strangler successfully casts healing spell on Sleepy, he is now fully healed and no longer stunned.

Sleepy Monk immediately takes a 5' step to flank horned devil, attacks, spends Ki point for extra FoB:
FoB 1 d20+18+2=23, miss
FoB 2 d20+18+2=31, miss
FoB 3 d20+18+2=35, miss
FoB 4 d20+13+2=28, miss
FoB 5 d20+18+2=27, miss

Grumble full attacks the horned devil, attacks 1 and 2 hit, 1 critical confirmed, attack 3 misses, total of 83 points.
Attack 1 damage: 33 points, 28 after DR
Attack 2 damage: 58 points, 55 after DR
Grumbles attack drops the horned devil to big negative numbers.

Bralani 2 moves to cast healing spell on Bartimus, he is healed 20 more points.

Strangler full attacks one of the barbed devils.
1d20+20+1=36 1d20+15+1=18 1d20+10+1=29 1d20+15+1=32 1d20+15+1=20
1d6+2d6+7+7+4=28 2d8+2d6+3+4=28

(56 damage, all good-aligned due to Holy amulet.)

The elemental full attacks, too.
two natural 20s! 1d20+19=39 1d20+19=39
confirms: 1d20+19=20 1d20+19=33
2d8+4=11 4d8+8=32

The other elemental does a single attack.
1d20+19=37
2d8+4=12


Spoiler:
Grappled: A grappled creature is being restrained
by another creature, trap, or effect. Grappled creatures
cannot move and take a –4 penalty to their Dexterity.
A grappled creature takes a –2 penalty on all attack
rolls and combat maneuver checks, except those made
to grapple or escape a grapple. In addition, grappled
creatures can take no action that requires two hands
to perform. A grappled character that attempts to cast
a spell must make a Spellcraft check (DC 15 + the spell’s
level) or lose the spell. Grappled creatures cannot make
attacks of opportunity.

Okay... Bartimus will channel energy to turn the outsiders and heal his friends within 30 feet, himself included.

Channel Energy: 8d6=25 Will save DC 20 for half for the outsiders.

It seems to me that Might of the Gods, the 8th level Strength domain power really ought to apply to checks to escape being grappled. Seems like a natural use of the power.


Male Dwarf Fighter 20

I agree Bartimus.


Male Dwarf Fighter 20

grumble grog grins his broken grin, pointing his axe at the one near Bartimus "You're next Spike!"
Intimidate:1d20=10

Charging Spring attack to avoid AoO. +2 atk

Dwarven War Axe :1d20=2+29=31

Dmg:1d12+13+1d6=1d12+11+1d6=25 (i removed the higher of the d12s since I can't use vital strike with a standard attack.)

"How you like that fiend?"

Does Haste provide me with +1 attack and an additional +1 attack witha full attack?

(Note I just realized I had an error with my dmg, I had it on my sheet as +13, instead of +11 (still had weapon spec figured in which I replaced with shall not pass. Therefore the horny one should have 2hp/regular attack and 6 hp per critical attack...dunno if that make him still up after Grumble's furious assault...on the other hand my shield should have done +10 instead of +7)

At Home: Against Pathfinder characters, I tend to give monsters 80% of max HP, and BBEGs 100% hp to balance them against Pathfinder core increase.


Elmora and the Bralani:

Elmora orders the Bralani to each attack one of the Barbed Devils.

1d20+18=21, 1d20+18=22, 1d20+13=18, 1d20+8=26

Hah, a 3,4, and 5 on my big attacks.

I don't think any of THOSE hit...

Bralani full attack hastened:
1d20+12,1d20+12=20,20, 1d20+7=26, 1d20+12,1d20+12=24,13, 1d20+7=19

I don't think any of those hit...

Lots of little arrows flying around...like gnats...bouncing off the barbed devils thick hides.

Well at least she removed the fear from Grumble and the bralani helped Bartimus back up, those Cure Serious are kinda handy.

Haste provides an attack bonus of +1 which is an overall effect applying to all attacks. Haste also provides an additional attack when making a full attack. The +1 bonus would apply to both, normal attacks and the additional attack.

Good idea - I think I'll start doing that, or something similar to that. I'm running the original ToEE module (with 3.5 updates to all of the NPCs/monsters) with pathfinder PCs now. It is very clear that the PCs often out-class the standard monsters out of the box.

A smoothly functioning support team is one of the keys to success. If Grumble is the only one who can hit them, then it's best to help him do that as much as possible.

Also don't forget to change the number of feats, basically they have 1 extra from 7, 2 extra from 13 and 3 extra from 19...i think...

and at 5th level they have the 6th level one. (or HD for real monsters)

I added dodge to lots of things in the kobold king series...heh.

You're all very welcome, and thanks for the appreciation! I think I need to take a break from running the next one. Is anyone else up for refereeing a level 18 playtest? I can spend some time updating the monk - we'll see how effective I can make him.

Grumble takes the head of the horned devil as a prize, it'll make a great beer stein! LoL

Great Job Sleepy! You weren't sleep'n on the job I must say!

He also lops the heads of the other two barbed deviled for good measure.


Bartimus spent the next few hours picking barbed spines out of his orifices. The healing spells alone took three hours...

However, he'd love to join Grog in inaugurating that horned beer stein!
