I'm losing track of my total, though if you really want, I can try to figure it out. :)
Sounds like we're all in for a wand. So I'd say everyone subtract 150 gold, and Kaplan add it to your gear.
Re: Eli's haste. I'd say Pirknok probably benefit the party the most (unless his suspicion trait would hamper it). He's got the highest attack bonus, I think. Ventus might be No. 2 on my list, but I think he's more likely than Pirknok to be doing something than full attack. Jessamy will usually be trying to full attack in combat and can certainly do some damage and use the bonuses, but she's less likely to hit and needs flanking to really do the same damage...
I vote for Pirknok as well. Suspicion should not interfere with the benefits and DPS wise it would make the most sense.
Superstitious actually will affect the alchemical speed boost but he can always turn it on before raging.
Pirknok for mayor!
... wait, am I at the wrong polls?
We've decided to donate you for...scientific experiments.
O noez!
... will it keep the peace between the "scientists" and the dorfs?
Yeah...sure...peace...
You mean pieces, don't you...
No, no. We intend to keep you in one piece.
That's good to hear... *wipes brow*
However, things will be... rearranged.
Nooooooo!!
You guys are hilarious XD
So, Pirknok was my first choice for Haste, but the Superstition issue is a problem. If you guys all think that's no big deal, then I'll go along with that. Otherwise Adventus or Jess should get it.
I don't have a strong preference either way, really... it'll benefit anybody. Pirknok isn't as "rage-crazy" as some barbarians I've seen, so there's probably time to activate it before he starts raging... but it does limit it a bit.
Your call, Doc! :)
It would really be doing me a favor if you guys could do a quick character wealth audit like Pirknok suggested. It helps me make sure you guys are where you should be at as far as loot is concerned.
If you have something unique that you're unsure of the value of, feel free to ask.
Will do then. May take me a little bit (sorry, I've been totally failing my Will saves vs. Superstar voting).
Assuming I've got everything correct, I've got about 21,500 gp worth (plus the value of the hunter's howl SLA).
+1 mithril short swords (6,000 gp, 2 lbs.)
2 daggers (4 gp, 2 lbs.)
Composite shortbow +1 Str (150 gp, 2 lbs.)
+1 studded leather armor (1,175 gp, 20 lbs.)
Goblin skull bomb (1,200 gp, 1 lb.)
Ring of protection +1 (2,000 gp)
Belt of Incredible Dexterity +2 (4,000 gp)
Non-combat gear
Handy Haversack* (2,000 gp, 5 lbs.)
-Bedroll (1 sp, 5 lbs.)
-Waterskin (1 gp, 4 lbs.)
-Whetstone (2 cp, 1 lb.)
-Daily clothes, traveler's outfit (1 gp, 5 lbs.)
-Marbles (1 sp, 2 lbs.)
3 Belt pouches (3 gp, 1.5 lbs.)

-Mwk. thieves' tools (100 gp, 1 lb.)
-2 sunrods (4 gp, 2 lbs.)
40 pp, 4,430 gp, 8 sp, 8 cp
The hunter’s howl thing is worth roughly 3k.
Shoanti Spirit Tattoo (+3 enhancement bonus to wisdom)
Cloak of Resistance +1 (1000 gp)
+2 Hydrascale Breastplate: +8 AC, max dex +3, check penalty -3
Masterwork Heavy Wooden Shield: +2 AC, check penalty -1 (157 gp)
Masterwork Scimitar (315 gp)
Masterwork Backpack (50 gp)
Bedroll (1 sp)
Belt Pouch (1 gp)
Blanket (5 sp)

Explorer's Outfit (10 gp)

Trail Rations (10 days) (5 gp)
Antitoxin (2) (100 gp)
Smelling salts (25 gp)
Alchemist's Fire (3) (60 gp)
Wand of Cure Light Wounds (50 charges) (750 gp)
40 pp, 2902 gp, 6 sp, 6 cp
So I've got a little over 9850 gp (9100 if you count the wand as a communal buy), plus the value of the breastplate and tattoo (if any).
The tattoo is worth 9k. The breastplate is worth 8k.
I'll get mine done in the near future.
Alright! We'll go with Pirknok then!
Wealth audit coming soon.
13838gp 9sp 5cp
Not counting Enduring Formulae, Debilitating Spores, Haste Formula
Enduring Formula and Debilitating Spores are worth 3k each.
Haste Formula is worth 12k but that should be counted for Pirknok since he's going to be benefiting from it.
Wow, it's looking like dorfy is pretty far ahead on wealth. Are we sure we haven't been missing stuff?
I'm going to go back and go through the thread to see if we've missed some stuff... otherwise (with the DM's permission) I'll unbuy the belt and put that most recent 3.1k back into the pot.
I try to do a mix of character-specific loot, general loot, and liquid coin. I try to leave it up to you guys to make sure things are sorted out in a somewhat even manner.
You gotta watch those dorfs. They’re greedy.
19838gp 9sp 5cp is my total then.
It occurs to me that I owed Eli a spellbook.
3rd — illusory script, invisibility sphere, fly, major image
2nd — magic mouth, misdirection, phantom trap, scare
1st — alarm, animate rope, color spray, comprehend languages, disguise self, hypnotism, magic aura, magic weapon, shield, sleep
It's worth 1055 in total.
Impaler of Thorns = ?
+1 bashing living steel quickdraw light shield = 4159gp
+1 Hosteling Breastplate (Special) = 8850?
Sandpoint Guard Tabard of Resistance +2 (Cloak of resistance?) = 4000
Shoanti Blessing = 9000
Magnimar Signet Ring +1 (Ring of deflection?) = 2000
Hippogriff Military Saddle = 60gp
Saddlebags = 4gp
Pathfinder's Kit = 12gp
Potion of Cure Moderate Wounds x2 = 600gp
Potion of Cure LIght Wounds x3 = 150 gp
+1 Chain Barding = 1550gp
Weapon Special = ?
Wealth = 365.66gp
Total=30750.66
The hosteling ability is expensive at this level.
Impaler of Thorns is ~9k.
Yes, the Magnimar signet is a +1 ring of protection.
That puts me at close to double what I should be.
Do you want me to adjust it down?
Don’t worry about it Ventus. That just means you’ll get less goodies across the next couple levels than the poorer folks.
Additional forgotten loot!
Ironbriar had a mithril agile breastplate of comfort +1 and a masterwork shortsword
Ooh, nice breastplate... Jess, you should take that!
+7 AC with 0 ACP!
Hey DM, that reminds me, did Eli ever figure out those wings he found on the would-be assassins?
He needed to spend some time studying them but he could have done so on the week long boat trip.
Roll a few alchemy checks Eli.
Do you think it'd fit me? ;)
I suppose I can slip out of my nice studded leather into a comfortable breastplate...
(Actually, I don't think I know what the comfort ability is. I'm looking in UE and not seeing it.)
I think it fits the character pretty well...
Armor of comfort sheds dirt and sweat as they accumulate, and remains as comfortable as weather-appropriate clothing regardless of environmental conditions.
A suit of armor with this enhancement always looks immaculately clean, can be slept in as though it were light armor, and does not cause a penalty to the wearer’s saving throws to resist the effects of extreme heat. In cold weather, it counts as cold-weather clothing. In addition, the armor’s armor check penalty is reduced by 1 (to a minimum of 0).
Nice. OK, so how are we seeing 0 ACP? I see -1 for masterwork and -1 for armor of comfort, but that should still be an ACP of 2 (which I'd be willing to take, probably). Am I missing some further reductions?
And what's the price adjustment, so I can keep my catalog correct?
(And I'm getting a max Dex of 4, right?)
Anyway, I feel MUCH safer now. Thank you, Magnimar.
It’s mithril. That reduces the ACP by another 2 and raises the max dex by 2 (to 5).
Sweet. I'm in lub!
Craft: Alchemy!
And none of those spells are accessible to Eli to scribe, so we should sell the book.
1055gp gives us 211 more gp each.
Eli also wants to buy and scribe
L1 Extracts: Bomber's Eye, Endure Elements
L2 Extracts: Lesser Restoration, Resist Energy
Can I suggest we have used that money to get an additional wand of CLW? They never go bad, so might as well get a second one while we've got the chance...
Jess if you can handle the rest, I'll put up 500gp for the extra wand.
In the clearing, Eli eyes the direction of the hounds warily. "Do you think the Hunters will resent our interfering with their hunt?" he asks.
Who is around and going to be available for the next couple hours?
