If there are more than four of us in melee, we're already doing it wrong.
Njord, Randall, Firiel, Hedgepeeg....anyone else? The rest of you stay out of melee and stay back 20 feet at least, cuz things about to get splody. I'ma prep all fireballs all the time!
Um..i just realized something.
The primary spell's save DC (if any) increases by 1. If either spell is normally modified by Spell Focus or Greater Spell Focus, the bonus to save DCs granted by those feats stacks with this increase. The caster of the primary spell also gains a +1 bonus on any caster level check made to overcome spell resistance.
Secondary Effects: While the secondary spell has no direct effect other than bolstering the effects of the primary spell, the combination of spells also creates a unique secondary effect depending on the elemental descriptors of the commixed spells. For the purpose of this secondary effect, the acid, cold, and electricity descriptors count as earth, water, and air descriptors, respectively. Commixed spells with the same elemental descriptors do not produce a secondary effect, though the primary spell still gains the synergistic benefits described above.
So remember this part. I actually have a couple of feats pushing my Spell Pen over normal. I still think my ability to change types is better suited to the secondary role, but you gotta overcome SR. I assume both spells make it, we get the benefits, if one fails, it just acts normally?
I have Spell Penetration and Greater Spell Penetration as well, but my only area of Spell Focus is conjuration, which won't help much in this case, I don't think. But the feat will definitely boost our ability to overcome SR and have higher DCs.
Asht could pick up Acidic Spray.
Firiel should get in on this too. Some steaming touch sneak attack would be sweet.
Asht could pick up Acidic Spray.
Done. Never heard of the spell, but I like it. And it's Conjuration!
I have a rod that has selective on it, for 3 times a day. The issue is what to do with the staff I have too, basically I need more hands and probably another rod. Since adding selective to the spell as I memorize it adds a spell level. The rod though, has a limit of 4 whom I can "not" affect. So...both have issues.
Well, if you have to choose, my Reflex bonus + improved evasion make me a good candidate if you have to include someone. I just hope you don't have to make a habit of it...
Njord, Randall, Firiel, Hedgepeeg....anyone else? The rest of you stay out of melee and stay back 20 feet at least, cuz things about to get splody. I'ma prep all fireballs all the time!
Xiddik is a melee-focused character, at least where elves are concerned. Plus, she has a better Reflex save than Njord. ;)
Hey! Njord is pretty quick for a drow-bear.
You could start prepping unseen servant to follow you around and hold stuff for you.
Weapon Snatcher sounds pretty sweet Randall.
Maybe I will work toward it - Improved Disarm this level, Weapon Snatcher as the next talent.
Or not - can't get Combat Expertise, so can't take Improved <insert maneuver here>
Unless Combat Expertise is available as a talent. I'm a point shy of the necessary Intelligence.
You could pick up an Int headband.
Capital idea, if I had any capital. I have a bad habit of spending my cash as soon as I get it. Speaking of which, did we want to go back and see if the failed attackers had any neat swag?
The demons themselves didn’t have any loot but there’s some stuff on their victims inside the apartments.
Also, someone should answer Njord so I can move things along.
Jametor is almost ready but apparently I need to buy more stuff from Hero Lab. Assume he has the feat and he's leveled.
Okay, I still have spells to pick - been busy playing Smallworld with the family this evening. But it's kind of funny that I said just a few hours ago that I'd never heard of Acidic Spray - since looking back over my list of possible spells in this thread from the last time, I noticed it was at the top of the list.
Good thing nobody expects the sorcerer to be especially smart...
It's a good thing we don't keep you around for your smarts.
Now didn't I already just kinda say that? Are you trying to be supportive by agreeing with me? 'Cuz I think that's not exactly the effect, ya know?
But I guess we don't keep you around for lifting our hopes, so I should expect some crushing.
Heh. Precisely!
Bears can't read, Ash, remember?
You people need to finish leveling already!
I've had to stay up late tonight (this morning?) to finish some homework. I'll try to do it tomorrow afternoon during my breaktime.
Jtor is actually leveled, I just haven't updated the stat line. The body of his profile is correct, except for the missing feat.
Just about done with leveling up, looking for input on second level spells.
The spells I'm considering are web, stone call (in case it will add useful elements to the Commixture), and bear's endurance, since it will add 22 hit points to whoever I cast it on, which could come in handy.
Thoughts?
Those are all good. I'm not as big fan of web as it ends up being more obtrusive than helpful.
I need to finish leveling dorfy, and then I'll level Fíriel. I haven't been feeling so well, which has sortof impeded my progress on those.
On the other hand, I'm already fairly sure of which feat I'll take for Fíriel, so leveling her should be pretty quick.
Does it seem worth taking a lower level spell with the Earth descriptor just so I have lots of options for combining with Jametor? I don't know how much I'd use Stone Call, but it would allow me to provide another element to add to the mix.
That said, does any spell with the appropriate descriptor work? Because great says it's an elemental (earth) spell, so I could drop a first level spell into Jametor's electrified fireball and make a superheated dust cloud. Right?
Right. The spell level of the secondary spell doesn't matter.
You're needed in gameplay!
I thought they needed to be within one spell level?
So they do. I'll keep that in mind, thanks for spotting it.
Hey! Njord is pretty quick for a drow-bear.
Wow, I was just looking at the text by your avatar and didn't see you were triple-multiclassed.
Well, I'm still faster than the hedgehog!
Well, I couldn't decide between Ranger and Bard, so I decided to go for an IC approach. Xiddik has been acting more like a ranger (aggressive, violent) and less like a bard (artistic) of late. Plus, rangering is faster to level up in. So I'll stick with Skirmisher a bit longer.
Xiddik is leveled up. Honestly, I'm not really happy with Hunter's Bond (both for flavor purposes and the fact that she has no Wisdom bonus), but it was better than the animal companion. I don't expect I'll use it much—it's not worth sacrificing a full attack on elves to give everyone else a +1 or +2 against them.
Why would you attack elves?
I am appalled.
*Stabs Jamdor*
Whoops! Sorry, reflex.
But I am not an elf. I am drow. And I prepped contingency and it fires off a 100d20 Fireball, no reflex....
No good! The dice roller glitched because you forgot to fix a quote!
Also, I am absolutely 100% anti-drow. I have a bumper sticker and everything.
Finished leveling up.
And I know what you mean, Xiddik, about that 4th level ranger choice - Animal Companion sometimes doesn't fit at all, but the Hunter's Bond really only works for the rare high-Wis ranger.
Another purchase for HL and I am done. Spoiler in my profile details our teamwork feat if you forget Ash or if the DM needs to verify.
I know own the data files for the Adv class guide too..so there's that.
Did anyone else plan on answering the First Daughter?
Otherwise it's time to kill you all move on.
I'm happy to die move on.
Everyone except Jtor gets 11,662.48 gold.
Jtor gets 410.10 gold (he was paying off the remainder of his debt from the staff).
I'm thinking Njord should pick up something to make killing demons easier.
I will have to think about Randall's purchase. Has he paid all his debts to the party?
Randall didn't have any.
I need to consider my purchases a bit as well, that's a nice chunk of change.
Jametor - if you come up with any fun ideas for uses of TK, share 'em, would you?
You included my 10 plat haul from the demon worshipper's meeting in the group loot, right?
I'm sorry, guys. I need to take a break from this game for a day or two, maybe three.
Sure, O, hope all is well.
Ditto, hope everything's OK.
