Since we have so many arcane full casters and no real rogue type character, I have been looking at UC Rogue 1/Exploiter Wizard 3/Arcane Trickster 4. Due to the addition of the unchained rogue as well as the accomplished sneak attacker feat, the arcane trickster is now viable before the really high levels. I think he would round out the party well.

The rogue/caster fits my backstory better as well!

Welcome all. I am glad we are breathing new life into one of my all time favorite games. I am ready to get this one rolling again. :)

Mardoni, you will have to convince me that the arcane trickster is viable. I have wanted it to be for many years but am convinced it is under-powered. Consider Counterfeit Mage instead? I have seen it played and it seemed quite fun.

Huzzah! 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (2, 1) + 2 = 5 for hitpoints. Can I have any extra equipment from the level difference?

Full HP every level per Recruitment.

Ah, so it is. Sorry, been awhile. :)


F Half Orc (Mystic) Scarred Witch Doctor 7 Hp 50/85 AC 19 (22) (+10 Perc; +5 Init; Fort +10, Ref +7, Will +7)

It has been so long I had to go back and review to remember your character area. I learned Lightning Bolt from you iirc. :)

Welcome to all of the new people :)


Aria wealth up to level 8. Cindy, Issa, and Aerin, if you want to do a wealth count of equipment on your own characters I suspect it is probably a little behind level 8 - I can look to getting that up to par quickly as well.


F Half Orc (Mystic) Scarred Witch Doctor 7 Hp 50/85 AC 19 (22) (+10 Perc; +5 Init; Fort +10, Ref +7, Will +7)

Cindy's wealth is a little skewed due to her crafting on her hex mask. Cool to add enchantments to it at 3/4 cost but the choices are limited and I might be better off just buying good gear. L)

Without her hex mask her total is 16863.

Her mask acts as a hat of disguise (has come in handy some), a helm of comprehending languages (never come up), a Jingasa of the fortunate soldier (need to discuss the errata to this - might not be worth keeping, and most recently added a Cyclops Helm (never used, but should be pretty handy.

The mask total cost is 12700 for a total of 29.6K. I think 8th level is 33K

Hmm. She also seems to be holding a hat of Human Guise and a wand of cure light for the party. She has an item better than the hat and has her own wand of cure light.


Hp 66/66 AC (29/ T:23/ FF:17) (+10 Perc; +5 Init; Fort +7, Ref +9, Will +7)

Since i started @ level 6 Aerin is currently around 32k net value..

Aria's profile/character sheet should be updated now.

Use the pre-errata version.


Okay, game is underway again. Sent some PM's to our three new characters. First day or two feel free to use the opening I've provided to introduce yourselves to each other. I'll do a character audit over the weekend on the new characters.

For Cindy, Issa, and Aerin, you will still need to decide on where you want to go next for the immediate future as things start to play out with info I've provided to the other 3.

I took Cindy's advice. I went more rogue than caster (with some arcane). Now Solian will have a flanking partner. :)

I will post in the gameplay thread in the morning.


Hp 66/66 AC (29/ T:23/ FF:17) (+10 Perc; +5 Init; Fort +7, Ref +9, Will +7)

Mardoni for my personal curiosity how did you get dex to damage on the curve blade ?

Finesse Training. It is one of about five two handed weapons that it works with (that I know of).


1 person marked this as a favorite.
Hp 66/66 AC (29/ T:23/ FF:17) (+10 Perc; +5 Init; Fort +7, Ref +9, Will +7)

It from unchained Rogue i see.
Never read those class so i learned something today ;)


F Half Orc (Mystic) Scarred Witch Doctor 7 Hp 50/85 AC 19 (22) (+10 Perc; +5 Init; Fort +10, Ref +7, Will +7)

Right. The curve blade has always been finessable. And Unchained rogue adds Dex Damage to one specific weapon at lower level and another weapon at mid level. Plus you Get Weapon Finesse for free. There is no down side to converting to unchained rogue if you have the chance.


Solian, looks like your flat footed AC should be 18 instead of 17. +6 Armor, +2 shield.

Everything else looks good.


Mardoni, with 24 dex your AC and touch AC should be 1 higher each as your dex bonus is +7.

I calculate init at +11 instead of +13. +7 from dex, +4 from familiar. Did I miss something else?

Can you also break down your skill ranks? That is, how many points did you spend in each skill?


Aria, character looks fine.

+2 Initiative for eleven reflexes

I will look at the AC and also break down the skills this evening when I can jump on hero labs.

Thanks!

I wanted to give a heads up that I will be on vacation and traveling through central Europe from May 9-May 25. I'll be able to post some while traveling but will have to do so from my phone or iPad. So please bot me if required and know that I'll post when I can.

For the record, the mission I have has nothing to do with Densen (that I know of). I was waiting until the group got alone to talk about my mission. So...Mardoni really has nothing to add.

GM: I just realized that I did not break down my skills. I will do that soon.


Hp 66/66 AC (29/ T:23/ FF:17) (+10 Perc; +5 Init; Fort +7, Ref +9, Will +7)

Are we all supposed to be entering the room?


Hp 66/66 AC (29/ T:23/ FF:17) (+10 Perc; +5 Init; Fort +7, Ref +9, Will +7)

i would image so unless you wanted to stay in the waiting room for security reason :)


I'm going to be without internet access through Wednesday evening. I'll post in the game play thread when I have sufficient time Wednesday evening.


F Half Orc (Mystic) Scarred Witch Doctor 7 Hp 50/85 AC 19 (22) (+10 Perc; +5 Init; Fort +10, Ref +7, Will +7)

Hi all. I am finally back from my quite long tour of central Europe. Loved the trip but also glad to be home. Catching up now. Thanks for putting up with my absence. I'll be posting soon!

I'm not sure of where I can contribute at the moment, it appears to be a business deal.. but I'm just an escort atm.. and I don't know what your doing so i'm kinda standing around.


F Half Orc (Mystic) Scarred Witch Doctor 7 Hp 50/85 AC 19 (22) (+10 Perc; +5 Init; Fort +10, Ref +7, Will +7)

Same. My understanding was that we were to find out why this woman stopped paying her guild dues and to correct the problem. if we are headed that direction it is a round about path. :) Still we seem to have shown that the enterprise is either talking money or faking it. If they are making money then they should be paying dues. So it seems to me that they may be faking their income.

As I mentioned in the game thread, I'm seriously just following Aerin's lead until we can get to a safe and secure location where we can discuss these tactics (and some other things that need to be mentioned) without being overheard by npcs or enemies.


F Half Orc (Mystic) Scarred Witch Doctor 7 Hp 50/85 AC 19 (22) (+10 Perc; +5 Init; Fort +10, Ref +7, Will +7)

Right. Just explaining why Cindy has a back seat in this one.

Has anyone heard from Aerin's player in a while?

The player is on vacation for three weeks. I think he might have access to internet but I don't know if he will have a lot of time to post here.

GM: Are you not rolling perception checks for us anymore? Should I start rolling them?


Hp 66/66 AC (29/ T:23/ FF:17) (+10 Perc; +5 Init; Fort +7, Ref +9, Will +7)

Indeed on vacations and internet isn t reliable


I roll perception checks privately, and only post it in the game chat if something interesting was noticed.

Coming back from GenCon and catching up with all my games


F Half Orc (Mystic) Scarred Witch Doctor 7 Hp 50/85 AC 19 (22) (+10 Perc; +5 Init; Fort +10, Ref +7, Will +7)

Sorry I missed you this year Issa. The Psizo staff wanted me to prep different events, including both specials in order to judge for them. I was pretty busy in life in general and had to decline. And I could not find a decent hotel on my own so I did not make it at all. I am hopeful for next year.

No worries, I was in a 30mn drive hotel from the Con and it was quite tiring to drive (and worst after GMing the specials) even if I wasn't the driver.
Next year, I will volonteer for a Tier2 to get the room near the Con.


F Half Orc (Mystic) Scarred Witch Doctor 7 Hp 50/85 AC 19 (22) (+10 Perc; +5 Init; Fort +10, Ref +7, Will +7)

Should have said "6" different events. And that was after I had indicated that I wanted to run as few different events as possible on their preference form. In their defense I had offered to run sort of late this year. I do not like how they notify people they are accepting GMing applications (Some board I do not read I think) and I never heard about about it.

I have been a Tier 2 judge for the previous 2 years and do not mind helping but I am slow at prepping and also hate running cold so I do a deep prep. Just no time to prep 6 different things this year.

When you hear they are recruiting judges next year send me a note. :)
