While I can see it being a feat to use it as a double-weapon, it should be pretty easy to just beat people with the stick part. Heck, I can figure out how to do that, and I don't have martial weapon proficiency.
You can make a quarterstaff by breaking a branch off a tree. Not in the real world, but in the game. If you want I staff, I'd say you cut or break off the blade and the counterweight.
As for provoking attacks of opportunity, sometimes you gotta take a chance.
Well, if I'm invisible, they might not get an AoO if I try to disarm one, so that sounds as good of a tactic as any!
Poof, you are invisible, assuming we are going in.
And I can open the door, too!
If you go in there with that spell on you, do not expect it to help you at all. These are Undead and will sense your life force regardless if they can see you or not. The spell Hide from Undead will work but since these things appear to have some form of intelligence, they may still sense you.
"Sense life force" is not an undead trait. Undead are not immune to glamers, which is what invisibility is. Undead by default have darkvision 60', which would be redundant if they just "sense life force."
Some undead may have special sensory capabilities beyond this, but not all.
Of course these might be something unusual, who knows? We're on some outer plane.
ok...Never have I played it that way. Then again I am not the DM here. So if that is how you feel it is to be played then so be it.
GM SuperTumbler, any knowledge roll, or spellcraft roll to know about effects of summoning where we are? For that matter, do we believe that any other spell effects will be different here?
You should be able to summon most things normally here, at least fo the moment. Conditions will vary in different parts of the Maze.
I will be away for the next week and will be limited in my postings. I can still post everyday but my post will be limited in content as I will have a limited data plan until I return home.
I wanted to give a heads up that I will be on vacation and traveling through central Europe from May 9-May 25. I'll be able to post some while traveling but will have to do so from my phone or iPad. So please bot me if required and know that I'll post when I can.
Do the transported people know the general direction they went? Do the non-transported people have any idea? Does seeing magic auras help?
Sorry for flaking out again. A couple of family medical emergencies in the last few days. I'm at least as frustrated at my flakiness as you are.
Tavius, you might have been able to phrase that last post slightly better...
Or keep it as it is, it made me laugh.
Hey all. Don't forget about me. Reading on my phone when I have wifi. Very hard to look at maps and post from phone though. Druhir will be careful and move to where she thinks other of the party are. She prefers the secret door to the others. Also she had a very good perception roll while combat was still going on so she might have heard something and could maybe get a general direction for the combat? So please bot me.
Perhaps we should go back into initiative.
Druhir, we'll have you just shadow Kjell for the time being. No worries.
Tavius, that is probably a good idea.
It's usually best when the GM rolls everybody's initiative all at once. Otherwise it takes most of a week just to get it.
Ah, right. I keep forgetting that.
Not to try and kill Tavius, but shouldn't that attack have threatened a crit?
Ah, but he did not cast defensively.
Oh, right. You have that insane reach. Man, Symbiats are powerful. So, you have a decent chance of taking no damage at all, I guess.
Yes, it should have been a critical. Thanks for the catch, Andros. And yes, the symbiat thing is causing me some consternation.
Work has continued to kick my butt and screw up my posting opportunities. The good news is that I'm a teacher and I'm done with students for the year, and I just have a couple days of meetings. I should be free and good to go now. It seems like people are still around, but if everyone would just check in to let me know, I'd appreciate it.
We are out of initiative now, so feel free to go about getting the band back together. I believe Druhir is still traveling for a couple more days.
Well, as soon as everybody is decently equipped, then I won't seem so out of scale.
Checking in.
Well, as soon as everybody is decently equipped, then I won't seem so out of scale.
This is true. Once I get two more kukris, not counting magic (even weapon enhancements), I'll be doing upwards of 8d10+56 damage on a full attack, plus crits. After my primary buff (castable as a swift action), it's more like 9d10+99. So perhaps I'm the overpowered one?
Or maybe it's just that level 10 is really powerful.
Checking in as well.
I am here. In fact I just got home from my trip last night and am catching up. Seems like Kjell and Druhir are a round or two behind. Druhir pointed out the secret door to Kjell but would have been happy to go whichever way the bloodrager wanted to go.
I'll admit I've gotten a little lost about what's happening since the teleportation, partially because some others were in combat while we weren't, and all of that. I think we're close to linking back up together, though?
Yep. We got separated, I killed a Crypt thing, Tavius killed the spellcaster, and now we're all coming back together.
Hello? Hello? Hello?
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me
Is there anyone at home?
I feel like I'm missing a reference of some kind....
Pink Floyd. Jeeze now I feel old. lol
Ah. Well, I never really pay attention to pop songs (new or classic), so....
Still here, Major Tom.
Have we entered a realm of sight and sound, of things and ideas?
...Where is everybody?
Quiet today....
I haven't been able to get on. It seems there was some sort of technical glitch bringing the site down.
And in the other table, the GM has called this one. *sigh*
Indeed. I'm not sure what is causing me so much trouble with these two games, but I am going to have to back out of them. I apologize for ringing and running, and generally for being such a flake with these campaigns.
Thank you for all of your time and the great builds. I'll make the campaign inactive in a bit.
Sigh. Not happy about this one. It had great potential. :(
Well, if you ever get the time to start it up again, I'll be here.
Thank you for letting us know, at least.
