You have plenty of down time to retrain and/or make purchases.
Do we know what we each have to spend? I'm terrible with spreadsheets!
We need information on 5 items from our GM before we can do a split. I am decent with spreadsheets and am happy to handle it after we get enough detail to know all the values.
I assume we will keep the first bag of holding regardless of capacity. Are we giving the second one back to "black Jack" along with all his other gear?
I may be a Rogue, but I wouldn't feel right about stealing Blackjack's signature gear.
I think he is asking about the bag of holding specifically. Probably reasonable to ask for it as recompense
Bag of holding (type I) x2
Amethyst eyes... 500 gp each
Gold armbands... 1,400 gp each
The vast array of torture implements, et al, could be collected and sold, but only to one specifically interested in such things (and likely sadistic).
I'll get things rolling soon, I "promise"!
With that information we have our split. We each get 8875 gold and 5 silver.
We are also keeping:
Wand of cure moderate wounds (35 charges) - Party, but who holds it?
Wand of invisibility (15 charges) - Seren
Bag of holding X2 Type I - Party. Who wants to carry each?
5 potions of cure serious wounds - One each?
3 potions of lesser restoration - Segang will carry at least one
2 potion vials(bulls strength) - Segang
3 flasks of alchemist fire - - Party, but who holds them?
Wand of Magic missiles (CL9 w/18 charges) - Seren
Wand of Dim Door (3 charges) - Seren
The only issue I see is that we are currently planing to sell the Wand of Magic missiles (CL9 w/18 charges). Hmm. I missed the increased caster level when I calculated the value. It would be worth 7140 (sell for half0 at a 7th level caster. At 9th level caster it increases to 9180 and sells for 4590. The question remains to we keep or sell this wand? Its at 9th level caster, allowing one more person to travel with each use.
If we keep it the cut becomes 7897.5. I recommend we keep it. Dim Door is just too handy.
Keep the dim door wand or magic missile? Dim door definitely keep. I could see selling the magic missile wand as needed.
Note that there are two dim door wands. You had already claimed the one with 3 charges. I say we keep all three wands. Just too useful.
Gotcha
I didn't address it in the game thread, but assume you had access to trainers for the desired feats, either through other PCs, Vencarlo or Trinia. Like buying and selling, there's plenty of downtime to account for oddball requests.
OK, I guess I gotta assign stuff. Here goes. I you want something I assigned to someone else ask them about it. :)
Wand of cure moderate wounds (35 charges) - Mel
Wand of invisibility (15 charges) - Seren
Bag of holding X2 Type I - Seren and AB
5 potions of cure serious wounds - One each
3 potions of lesser restoration - Segang, Ab, and Jarha
2 potion vials(bulls strength) - Segang
3 flasks of alchemist fire - - Segang, Ab, and Seren
Wand of Magic missiles (CL9 w/18 charges) - Seren
Wand of Dim Door (3 charges) - Who can use this besides Seren?
Wand of Dim Door (17 charges) - Seren
I have UMD. But not much.
I'll pass on the alchemist fire.
I think Segang will purchase a headband of Havoc for 8k. It does two things for him. It increase one range power by 4 levels (which can be another +1 on will saves, +1 damage vs casters, or +1 Natural Armor) AND it lets his start rage as an immediate action once a day. So, if he has to make a will save, he could rage first and gain +5 to that save. Or if he is attacked he could rage first, increasing both his AC and Fort save.
Thoughts?
Mel, he already has a +2 cloak.
I'm thinking of a belt of incredible dexterity +2 and a headband of inspired wisdom +2.
Not a very impressive boost on either one, but better than nothing, and I can't afford +4 items. Not to mention, I need whatever boost I can get to my Will save.
If there's a cloak of resistance +2 going spare, I'll have it!
No +2 cloaks in the loot, only Mel recommending that we each buy one.
I considered upgrading my +2 belt of con to one that gives +2 con and strength. That would be 6k,but this headband seems more thematic.
I can use the Dim Door wand.
Ah, then Mel can certainly use party gold to upgrade her cloak! Ab, those are good items to nab, especially the belt. Headband for will saves? A cracked Pale Green Prism ioun stone will get you +1 to all saves for cheaper, I think.
Jarha will probably upgrade his cloak to +2 and get a +2 CON boosting belt. He will sell his Boots of the Cat, since he now has always on feather fall as a kineticist. I'll have to see if there is something else he wants to buy with the left over loot funds and proceeds of boot and +1 cloak sales. Probably will just save it.
I see that you can us the wand if Dim Door, which is excellent. Since Seres is getting other goodies I’d recommend you take the wand with 17 charges. I am not that familiar with the witch spell list.
As far as party gold goes, I believe we have sold and split the gold out. 7897:.5 gold each.
I think Mel will just upgrade her cloak for now. Although I'm considering Fate's Shears.
Never heard of those. I will mention that I am not sure what books are available for item purchase and that our GM balked when I tried to buy things like air bladders and fins.
Inner Sea Gods. I think I won't get it for now.
I'm pretty open to all Paizo core products. A lot of their "splat" books, however, have feats and gear that are built around the themes of the subject race, religion, region etc. But if they aren't given specific prerequisites to that theme, anyone can take them for the mechanical benefit, even if it doesn't make any sense on the fluff side.
Like all the sweet illusionist feats that are reserved for gnomes?
Such BS.
Damn gnomes.
Do you at least recall DM NomadSage when you balked at my mundane swimming gear in the first book? I forget what resource it came from, but I had it loaded in Herolab so it showed up to me.
Hrrm. With my current funds, I can only get the belt; I need 500 gp to fund my feat-retraining.
Ah, well. Can I count on someone to hit me up with Protection from evil if we run into any enchanters?

I do. I don't remember what book they came from.

Yep, and at this point, it's good for many minutes before the fight.
Jarha is also going to buy some potions of reduce person, which, if I am understanding correctly, for 50gp each will give total of +2 to hit and -2 to AC, without any negative consequences to his kinetic blast damage. Am I missing anything? Any more efficient option than buying potions? I couldn't find any appropriate magic items (and couldn't afford anything fancy anyways).
Do you mean Enlarge person?
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
No, it's Reduce Person that gives the advantages to Dex, to hit, and AC. Enlarge is a great boost for melee fighters, but the opposite of what Jarha needs.
Yep. That is a standard trick for casters. In the right size town you could buy a wand of it and perhaps use UMD or get a caster to use it on you. But potions are more handy.
My understanding is that such a wand would be available locally, given all the other stuff that is available. I guess if I have 750 gp available that would be a lot more cost efficient than potions, and Jarha has +9 UMD and both Melianthe and Seren could use it on Jarha. I just need to do my accounting...
I'm out for the weekend. I'll pick things up again on Monday.
Heads up--I'll be out camping from 4/14 to 4/18. Please have Mel hex everything in sight and spam summoned Hound Archons.
Are you packing wilderness gear? Have you contracted a Ranger? ;)
But seriously: have fun and be safe. ^_^
This will be car camping, the real Survival rolls will take place in July! :D This should be very mellow. :)
Well, now I can't help but see Seren as Rocket and Segang as Drax. :D
Ha ha!
Wait ... is there a raccoon icon?
Sorry for the delay... I haven't had a good chance to lay out the Harrow cards. I may end up just narrating it, in a general sense, to get things going.
A narration is fine!
Sorry... Every time this week I've planned to post something, I've been OBE. Will hopefully get back on track tonight, tomorrow for sure. No jinx!
Referencing Segang's question, here are the Harrow Point uses in this chapter (if you remember to use them). You each start with 3 points. They can be spent any time as a free action.
Brutal Strike: A PC can spend a Harrow Point to gain a +5 bonus on damage rolls with all melee or natural weapons for the duration of one combat. Alternatively, brutal strike allows the PC to ignore an object’s hardness for 1 round.
Mighty Thews: A PC can spend a Harrow Point to be treated as a creature one size category larger than normal for the purposes of attempting grapple combat maneuver checks, wielding weapons, lifting heavy objects, and determining whether a hungry monster can swallow her whole; this adjustment lasts for one encounter (but no more than 10 minutes).
Strength Rerolls: A PC can spend a Harrow Point to reroll a Strength-based check. She must abide by the new result (although if she has additional Harrow Points remaining, she can use them to attempt additional rerolls).
Oh nice! these are much more useful that the previous ones for me!
I will be on vacation (but with wi-fi) in Costa Rica from 7/2-7/14. I will probably have a few days where I won't be able to post. Bot me as needed!
What? Nice! We're headed to Costa Rica in November over Thanksgiving. Give me some gouge when you get back! Other than plane tickets, we haven't settled on any of the rest of our itinerary
I will be out of town from June 28 through July 25. May be able to post a bit on my phone but a lot less regular.
I was in Costa Rica a few years back for 10 days. We were with Gate 1 Tours and had a great time. I highly recommend that company.
I think you mentioned Gate 1 to me before. My wife and I have looked into them and were definitely impressed with their offers. We are looking to scuba dive on this trip so that may limit what we can do on organized tours but were hoping to fill in with some non dive days.
Any highlights from your visit?
