My vote is we try to draw the minotaur thingy outa the room and to us. For all we know there are invisible people hiding in there waiting to strike at us as we enter.
And now, the paranoid woman goes to check on the brownies that she is baking...

Anyone play Fallout:New Vegas and the Honest Hearts? I'm thinking it is time to go all Joshua Graham on the CoT and their cronies. The link here leads to a youtube video where you talk to him, particulary the quote at 1:29 which Andrea will edit into something regarding Westcrown and needing to do a purge.
This means war

So there is no confusion
At 8th level, as a swift action, you gain the use of one combat feat for a number of rounds per day equal to your cleric level. These rounds do not need to be consecutive and you can change the feat chosen each time you use this ability. You must meet the prerequisites to use this feat.
Daniel is considered a 5th level cleric so he has 5/rds a day. Including his bard trip and his lunge, tripping the minotaur he has used 3.
You can attempt to trip your opponent in place of a melee attack. You can only trip an opponent who is no more than one size category larger than you. If you do not have the Improved Trip feat, or a similar ability, initiating a trip provokes an attack of opportunity from the target of your maneuver.
Daniel started 5feet away and used Weapon master to learn Improved Trip.
He 5ft stepped adjacent (which doesn't provoke) and Full Attacked, using his first attack to trip.

That is funny we were doing the same thing at the same time. I posted the same items in game thread.

I'm cool...
The overall value was pretty insignificant. The group had large haul from this adventure, it was one of those catch-up in party wealth side tracks.
As an FYI, we sort of skipped the meat of the book 4 and this side track pretty much replaced that book. I've incorporated a few key points and information into this scene. That burning guardian was from the book 4, I just moved it over to sewer.

Andrea that headband of mental prowess was intended for you. So everyone, excluding Faelyn and Gerard, had an item to boost at least one ability stat. I think Andrea was using a belt of constitution at least temporarily. I'm a bit uncomfortable from a balance of power/fairness POV to have one character get three ability stat boosts. Perhaps that can go to Gerard?
Andrea do your normal selling of goods and division of wealth cut Faelyn into the division for now. Not sure what is going to happen with Faelyn, he'll stay on the sidelines for bit.
Gerard I don't have the Magick-mart type shops, so we roleplay obtaining and ordering special gear. Most things are available but sometimes it takes a few days or weeks to get.
You all can level up to 9th.

Gerard, what I usually do is divvy up the coin and sell the gems(Putting them into the coin pile) then divvy the coin up. People can look over the quipment and say what they are interested in. I then sell what is unclaimed.

Daniel Arrisen |

Everybody should strongly consider keeping one of the +2 weapons. We lose 1/2 value in the selling and that's alot of coin to lose in the trade.
I return my +2 sword I borrowed to the pile (I'll endeavor to pay to have my own sword upgraded)
The +2 Cesti is a AWESOME backup weapon that allows one to threaten and is always out and does not interfere with using other weapons. I am interested but someone should definitely take it. ANDREA OR LUCREZIA. Gerard has quickdraw so doesn't need it.
The +2 handaxe is throwable. Can't remember if Gerard is proficient. ..

Updated most stuff including skills.
Still need to pick
1Mercy- I am thinking nauseated or staggered
1Feat- GM call on what's allowed.
My preferred options are: MOONLIGHT STALKER. +2 to hit and damage when I have concealment. Hence my learning BLUR.
Powerful but requires me to prebuff.
Or
Cornugan Smash- Auto Intimidate a foe I hit with power Attack.
Applying SHAKEN. If I can get Talbard to craft me/source a CRUEL enchant on my weapon it would add SICKENED as well.
The net effect is to protect my allies (via lowering enemy to hit)
Or
Bullying Blow. If Cornugon Smash seems overpowered. Then this may be a better alternative. Net effect is the same. Free Intimidate check when I hit but unlike Cornugon it is a standard action to use a Bullying Blow (so no full attacking with it, and the attack is at -2 penalty.
I would like to know if any of these are allowed. Currently I meet all thier preqs and they are COMBAT feats so could be used with WEAPON MASTER domain power. I have avoided thier use so far to wait for an appropriate time to check for DM approval.
Moonlight Stalker is pretty self explanatory. A 3 feat chain (Blindfight, Combat Exp, Stalker) for +2 hit and damage when concealed.
Less powerful than Wpn Fcs, Wpn spec, gtr weapon spec, since they are always on.
The other 2 feats are just both ways to put my High Intimidate into play by layering a debuff on a single target.

Further- If MOONLIGHT STALKER is outright banned.
I would ask to retcon my learning of BLUR (from my UM feat, Unsanctioned Knowledge- to INSTRUMENT OF AGONY) since blur was specifically for the feat.

Daniel Arrisen |

I'm gonna start prepping KNIGHTS CHALLENGE instead of Challenge Evil.
It will make foes Waste an action to close with me.
It also lets us draw foes into our ground :)
My other spell will probably be KEEP WATCH considering the number of times we have been attacked while sleeping.
This will let DANIEL stand guard all night while others sleep.

Shopping list.
I would like to be a STEALTHY paladin.
Blasphemy I know.
What is affordable gearwise to make that possible.
Mostly cause stealth only works if a few party members gear toward it.
Gerard and Lucrezia are great at it.
But Daniel is 'Sir Clanks Alot' in his full plate.
I am thinking MITHRAL Fullplate or the CREEPING enchantment.
Creeping enchant means the AC penalty for fullplate does not apply to stealth checks.
Buying Mithral Fullplate would cost 9000 flat and could be enchanted later at lower cost (still carrying a -3 Armor Check)
I don't think 10000 is worth it for mithral
My current fullplate could be enchanted to +2 Creeping Fullplate for 8000gp so I'll save for that.
Then I'll have no armor check to stealth. Yay!

Daniel Arrisen |

A ring of sustenance, or stone of alarm?
Much cheaper to prep Keep Watch and buy a 1st level pearl of power.
My big problem is how long it takes to don fullplate.Keep Watch negates the need for sleep for me and you guys get to rest with A fully armored pally watching over you. :)
Plus I have Acute Darkvision so can see better than all of you.
