FYI. I'll be in town and able to play hard through Thursday. After that, the wife and I and our wee little nipper are going on a Disney cruise. Yes, it promises to be the most awesome vacation ever. Anyways, so I'll be out from 3 April - 12 April, and will be back up and running on the 13th.
Ok folks, I'm punching out until 13 April!
Have fun on your trip. I'll bot you most likely and try not to get you killed.
Hey gang, sorry today is going to be a loss for me...Super busy at work.
Try for tomorrow but Wednesday at the latest!
Sigh, again time has slipped away from me. I promise Thursday to update around lunchtime.
On a bright note, my wife's pregnant!
Congrats ;-)
Congratulations!

Glad that is a bright note in your life. :)
LOL @Arc I am at the point in my life, now, where getting pregnant is no longer an accident!
Generally that's one of those statements where I say congratulations with a '?' on it. Since you introduced it as a bright note, I'll leave off the '?' and just say congratulations.
Woot! Congrats!
Thank you very much.
As a side note...Group Alpha you're up! :)
So I'm traveling right now and thought I would have reliable internet... But I don't. I will update as I can this week.
I'm sorry, but I'm lost. If we're already in round 3, I missed round 2 completely. After I attempted the readied action (A poor move for pbp, I see that now ^^) I'm where in initiative? Alpha or Beta?
You're readied action never went off...so basically your character stood there for the round. You'll stay in the same initiative since you never acted.
Ah, my bad.
I apologize for my continued minimal presence, but the S**t storm of school work has been insane and I'm just working to keep up. Classes end soon, so please bear with me, and I will have the whole summer for posting.
No worries. I feel ya!
Let me know when you want to proceed and the marching order. You can play out a character building scene with Akon...it's appropriate!
Good question, who DOES have the rod?
Because we're gonna need it!
Hey gang, today's a bust. Moving prep issues. Will update tomorrow.
All, I left an update in the gameplay thread, but I'm going to be offline till Monday.
We we add the mythic template now?
Holiday weekend here in the states, and I'm adding to it by taking Friday off as well, so in all likelihood, I'll be offline until late Monday, or early Tuesday.
I'm visiting family at the moment as well for pentecost, so I won't be updating for the weekend. It's frustratingly slow to type from a tablet without a bluetooth keyboard.
Alright I'm back. I'll update Åkon to mythic and post my actions.
Which Mythic paths are people choosing?
I've opted for archmage, but I'm going for quite a few universal path abilities.
Still going Hierophant.
Alright, Champion for me, since Bastion isn't.
I've no clue what to pick, so I took the charge one, and gave myself dark vision, and strangely enough, chose to take a non-mythic feat (Power Attack).
Wish me luck with my choices.
Looking at them, I'm also looking Champion. It's not like there can/should only be one of anything. It's just that sweet, sweet violence is really what Lirrathan loves, and they have rage powers to go with his Wild Stalker archetype.
That said,
GM, can I take the Mythic Rage ability? It says I must have the rage class feature, which I don't get until 4th level.
Yeah, with being short class levels, the mythic and non-mythic sides don't compliment quite as much, but it'll work out.
Hmmm, Impossible Speed instead of Darkvision.
Hmm. Still waiting on the DM to respond to my question on adding the Mythic template. We seem quite low at level 3 to do so. But then again I do not know these rules well.
Pendin said we were mythic now, so I'd assume it would be a yes to your question.
In regards to it being early, I spoiled myself when I talked to a friend who ran it once, he said they became mythic at level 5. So I guess it's early in the scope of the game, but by the rules, you could have a level 1 mythic 1 character.
We discussed this earlier. Book 2 expects PCs to start as level 6 characters with 1 Mythic Tier, but the DM was intending to not have us be that when going in, and he would handle leveling differently than the AP suggests.
Ok. I am adding Tier 1 mythic to my character. I can always take it off if that is not the intent.
Archmage Path
3 bonus hit points
Gain Hard to Kill
5 mythic surges/day
Archmage Arcana - Arcane Surge
Mythic Feat -Flexible School - Divination
Mythic Power - Extra Mythic Power
I updated Sir Bastion a few days ago, but here is what was added by going mythic.
Hierophant 1
Base Mythic Abilities
- Hard to Kill
- Mythic Power 5/day
- Surge +1d6
- Mythic Feat - Mythic Spell Lore (M)
- - Cure Light Wounds
Mythic Path Abilities
- Divine Surge - Inspired Spell
- Path Ability - Universal Path, Legendary Item
- - Legendary Power 2/day
- - Legendary Surge +1d6 on attacks and CMB with weapon
- - Mythic Bond
- Bonus HP +4
I am assuming Sire Bastion needed to take Legendary Item for Radiance. If not I will switch it for Faith's Reach (Hierophant)
Question on the Mythic Spell Lore
If I choose Cure Light Wounds, can I use the Mythic version when I cast the spell using a Paladin spell slot or a Oracle spell slot?

You can.
Ok. I'm slightly less unavailable so update time!
You all will be level 4 as well after this. I just forgot to mention that with the Mythic part.
This little scenelet isn't as much a combat as it is a play of sorts. But yes, you should be Level 4 Mythic Tier 1 now.
And yes, the books level a little fast, and while mechanically you get the right XP amounts at the intervals...it doesn't feel right when actually playing it out. Don't worry though, you'll be hitting 20 at the culmination of the AP.
Ok. Leveling to 4th level then. Arc takes a level of wizard.

I plan to rework Åkon's "sheet" a bit, as I'm not quite at home with the current format.
Åkon, what Archmage Arcana did you take. I took Arcane Surge which looks great. But for a spontaneous caster the other one that lets you cast any spell on your list is very good too.
Hey, have we found any decent 2H weapons, cold iron preferred?
None that I am aware of, Paritosh.
But I haven't been here from the begining.
No problem. I'll keep my eye out for a nice one as we go. Surely we'll off someone who doesn't need theirs anymore!

I took the one that allowed me to cast any spell on my list—Wild Arcana :)
That's the one!
