Euan's Second Darkness (Inactive)

Game Master Euan

Hey Kaylingerers--

I'm headed down to Mexico for the next 9 days. Since it's the beachy, resorty part, they offer and should have ample wifi and whatnot. However, there are no guarantees, like some orange baboon erecting an expensive and entirely unnecessary digital wall to keep internet traffic from going to and fro Mexico...

...anyhoot, if I fail to post in a timely manner, feel free to GMPC me.

Have fun! Mexico is great! Which part you headed to? My wife and I usually go to Barcelo Resort in Riviera Maya.

Yeah, I'm down near Tulum. Not sure how close that is to the Riviera Maya, but I expect beach and sun and internet.

Nice. I think that was roughly a 20-30 minute drive when we went to check out Tulum and the temples.

If you look at the treasure sheet there are things you could sell as well. You need to decide what to sell, what to keep, etc. The elves will handle any sales/purchases easily enough.

I reviewed the treasure sheet and Kaylayne's keeps. Should be mostly correct for her.

Well, since we have a lotta loot, Dimitrio will claim some.

If no objects, he'll take the following:

- amulet of natural armor +2;
- cloak of resistance +3; and
- wand of lighting bolt (Cl 10, 45 charges).

He'll also get the night goggles.

Let me know if there are issues before I update my PC sheet.

I'd like to know how is left over to see if I can upgrade stuff or get new items.

No problem Dimitrio, but remember you have to pay for the night goggles out of your share. They're not giving you a quarter million in cash, and free stuff. :)

Looks like you and Lief both want the cloak, who gets it?

Dimi, of course. Frontliners, first.

Dimi, of course. Frontliners, first.

Oops, I just realized I double posted.

Thanks, Lief.

Euan, yes, I will pay the goggles out of my share.

Everyone: even after paying for the goggles, we'll still have around 40-50K gp each; what else should I get?

I could go boring and upgrade my DEX belt (maybe add CON to it), belt of physical might +2 (DEX ad CON) costs 40,000 gp.

Is there anything that gives me a second chance at a failed saving throw?

If I upgrade my weapon to a +3, spell storing, would having a wand of vampiric touch to cast on the blade help?

Is there something that may heal me as a free action, like a spell storing armor that I could load with a cure serious wounds?

Other stuff?

Have a solution to DR (esp good), please. Also, a way to fly would be keen (and the wand might be that solution).

Maybe we each put aside 4000 gp (for a total of 20000 gp) for various wands/healing/scrolls of remove xyz, flesh to stone, cure insanity,etc? I won't be able to put together a good list for a while, but one of you might. :)

Maybe a couple of scrolls of align weapon communal to share with the gang. I know it's divine but we could probably cast it with UMD.

I thought about thew idea of keeping the fly wand and will do so unless anyone wants it. Fly is one of those spells that you never know when you need it but it's a life saver.

I'll gladly offer up money to buy healing 'stuff' but I just don't know what stuff to buy so someone smarter than me should make that list. I'll forget something. :)

As I see it we need the following to proceed...

- Allarnon and Ederin need to pick any items they want off the treasure sheet.
- Someone needs to put together a list of group purchases around 20kgp. An excellent idea as you won't have access to civilization for a while. So if someone is turned to stone, and you don't have a scroll, you're kinda screwed.
- Individuals need to come up with their individual purchase lists.

Thanks to Lief sacrificing some of his income to bring Ederin back up to the group, you should anticipate an approximate divvy of:
Allarnon 60,000
Ederin 100,000
Dimitrio 60,000
Kaylayne 60,000
Lief 20,000

NOTE: this is not a divvy. Folks might pick some items from the list, you might buy more or fewer group items, etc. This is just a number to help you figure out what you might want to buy while we work toward a final divvy.

So, who's going to build a list of support scrolls/potions/items?

Here is a list of scrolls / wands that I can think of. Let me know what you think if need to add / take away anything.

Scrolls

• Comprehend Languages x 25 gp ea (25 gp)
  
• Stone to Flesh x3 1650 gp ea (4950 gp)
  
• Invisibility Purge x3 375 gp ea (1125 gp)
  
• Breath of Life x2 1125 gp ea (2250 gp)
  
• Neutralize Poison x2 375 gp ea (750 gp)
  
• Remove Disease x2 375 gp ea (750 gp)
  
• Remove Blindness / Deafness x3 375 gp ea (1125 gp)
  
• Remove Curse x2 700 gp ea (1400 gp)
  
• Remove Paralysis x4 150 gp ea (600 gp)
  
• Restoration x2 700 gp ea (1400 gp)
  
• Water Breathing x2 375 gp ea (750 gp)
  
• Align Weapon Communal x5 375 gp ea (1875 gp)

Total for scrolls- 17,000 gp

Wands

• Wand of Lesser restoration 750 gp
  
• Wand of CLW x3 750 gp ea (2250 gp)

Total for wands- 3000 gp

******************************************************
Total for everything

(20,000 gp) on the dot.

As for Allarnon I will just take the diamond dust (750 gp worth) as I could use it for my Stoneskin spell. Otherwise I am good on the loot list.

I will toss in for Ederin's divvy on party items as well to help catch up.

Only purchases I have at the moment are:

• +2 Wild Heavy Wooden Shield (25,157 gp)
  
• Allarnon and Ederin Divvy for Party scrolls and Wands- (10,000 gp)
  
• Diamond Dust (2500 gp worth in 250 increments)
  
• Goggles of Night- 12,000 gp

(Total 49,657 gp)

***********************************************************
The remainder will go towards scrolls for permanency and Darkvision on Tarkir if Kaylayne is able to do that with UMD. Though not sure on the cost.

Thanks a lot for the list Allarnon - looks great! Anyone want to add anything to it? There are a few minor pricing issues, but no need to be pedantic. It's close enough, the elves will pitch in a little. :)

To be clear, you guys are selling enough that the group purchases will come from those funds. No need to 'buy in'.

Also, you can get as much diamond dust as you like. :)

Yeah Thanks, bearman. :)

What about something to remove insanity?

GM: does this mean that Dimitrio still has 60,000 gp to spend (minus the goggles) or was part of that used for the common items'?

Just let me know and I'll come up with a personal list.

Dimitrio, you are correct, give or take. The final number will depend on Ederin's picks and whether the group purchases more scrolls and wands.

Thanks a lot for the list Allarnon - looks great! Anyone want to add anything to it? There are a few minor pricing issues, but no need to be pedantic.

I'm going to edit (or add) a bit. Mostly, I think we need a LOT more wands of CLW. And insanity. Heck, I was in an AP where a party member was sent to another plane...so maybe a sending scroll or something.

Think we need a legend lore or find the path?

I return home late Sat, so won't have anything real until then.

Sorry for the delay. Will have a post early tomorrow and a shopping list shortly after. That's quite a bit of money to spend...

In addition to taking the following:

- amulet of natural armor +2;
- cloak of resistance +3; and
- wand of lighting bolt (Cl 10, 45 charges).

Dimitrio will buy the following:

Goggles of night (12,000 gp)
Wand of cure serious wounds (11,250 gp)
Add Spell storing to +3 chain shirt (7,000 gp)
Upgrade buckler +2 to +3 (5,000 gp)
Upgrade belt of dex +2 to +4 (12,000 gp)
Total: 47,250 gp

Let me know if this is Ok and I'll make changes to my PC sheet.

Did the Five Fold Ring of Fire gain new powers or does it just cast 2 scorching rays (4d6 each)?

Dimitrio, at each level up, I note what items have improved so you can keep careful track. It is in spoilers though, so you might have missed it.

At twelfth level, each day, the wearer can ignore up to 40 points of fire damage as if using protection from energy. This fire damage is absorbed into the fivefold rings of fire; when this happens, if the wearer has already expended one or more of her scorching rays for the day, she can recharge one of the rings for every 20 points of fire damage she absorbs.

Further, from the original description, the wearer can release up to five scorching rays each day, one from each of the five rings. She can release one ray as a standard action or two rays (from two different rings) as a full-round action.

So it's a little better. It improves again next level a bit.

Oh s!!$, I totally missed those. :(

I was still thinking that the ring only had the ability to shoot out two scorching rays per day. I'll have to go back and read the spoilers at the level ups.

Thanks for the info. :)

Okay, grabbed a pot of CMW and the belt of Dex from the treasure sheet, everything else looks good to sell. Looks like we've all made any claims we intend to make, so that means we also have a divvy of another 9,714 gold I believe (after Al's list of purchases).

Question Euan, does the Keen on my +1 bow get added to it's total bonus? Would upgrading it to, for example, a +2 Keen Composite bow cost me 6k or 16k?

Thanks for the donations guys but feel free to reconsider, I don't particularly feel like Ed is lagging behind performance wise.

With my share as it is at the moment I'm looking at a +3 Cloak of resistance (9k), upgrading the belt to +6 (32k) and upgrading my bow to a +3 or +4 depending on cost (max of 30k) and goggles of the night (12k) so that's a potential total of 83k, leaving 7k left of my "share" plus whatever I get from the divvy.

That bit I'll contribute into buying more healing and maybe something to handle undead/necromancy since it seems likely we'll be up against that.

Ederin, yes it all stacks for the cost of the weapon. Keen costs +1, so a +2 Keen bow would cost 18,000 (minus what you already put in of course).

Okay so upgrading to +3 will cost 28k, meaning I've used 81k of the 90k share.

9k into the pot for more healing items and such.

Ederin, yes it all stacks for the cost of the weapon. Keen costs +1, so a +2 Keen bow would cost 18,000 (minus what you already put in of course).

Unless there is some GM chicanery, keen is melee weapons only.

/me is still on the beach. Leaving soon. Long long trip home.

Oh, duh. Can't see the forest for the trees. So worried about pricing, I forgot the larger issue. Kaylayne is correct unfortunately... Did I miss that earlier?

You provided it as loot.

Relevant Post

Looks like I've had the weapon for almost a year now.

Oh good, I'm now laughing at the beach and the wind has blown sand into my mouth.

Nice. An AP drop. Keep it then, as clearly the 3.5 rules apply! :D

Allarnon Purchases:

+2 Wild Heavy Wooden Shield (25,157 gp)
Increase +1 Wild HideArmor to +2 Wild Hide Armor (9000 gp)
Diamond Dust (2500 gp worth in 250 increments)
Goggles of Night- 12,000 gp

Total- 53,657 gp

That leaves 6500 gp left to possibly give Tarkir darkvision if at all possible.

Ederin 99,714
Dimitrio 59,714
Kaylayne 59,714

If you need to make further group purchases, you'll have to pool your cash, or sort it out some other way. Someone should be tracking the group purchases so they don't get forgotten. :)

Still working on this post, but posting it so others can review and I don't lose my work. :)

Things I think we need still:

Hmm...going to adjust the wands a bit as I've checked out our current wands situation.

Kaylayne has the following:
Wand CLW 38/50
Wand CMW 50/50

Dimi as the following:
wand of cure light wounds (35 charges)
Wand of cure serious wounds (50 charges)

Ederin, Lief, Allarnon, what healing wands do you currently have?

Would love to get that Scroll of Resurrection.

Kaylayne has the following:
Wand CLW 38/50
Wand CMW 50/50

Dimi as the following:
wand of cure light wounds (35 charges)
Wand of cure serious wounds (50 charges)

Allarnon has:
Wand CLW 20/50
Wand CLW 50/50

Ederin? Lief? Whatcha got?

With the loss of my character sheet on mythweavers I don't know what my full inventory was, per the treasure sheet I picked up a wand of CLW that has 21 charges and 2 CMW scrolls around April.

Per my post history the scrolls were used immediately and though I can't find any mention of using the full amount of the wand I find it hard to believe it wasn't used up by now.

I've got about 18k left after my purchases, I can buy the scroll of resurrection and still afford any ammo I need plus more Cure wands/potions. Topping that I still have my healing sash and Ederin can cast a handful of CLW and CMW spells, and starting next level I've got access to CSW (but only once a day).

With the 16K I had and the 12K left over from purchases, I have a total of 28K that I will happily contribute to keeping everyone safe and sound so please feel free to make use of these funds as best fits the party.

Ok after speaking with the GM I am making a couple slight changes for final purchase. Keeping Armor at +1 and Cloak of resistance at +2 to add Belt of Dwarvenkind and Wand of Darkvision.

+2 Wild Heavy Wooden Shield (25,157 gp)

Goggles of Night- 12,000 gp
Cloak of resistance from +2 to +3 (5000 gp)
Belt of Dwarvenkind (14,900)
Wand of Darkvision (4500 gp)

Gold Left- 1143 gp

Kaylayne has the following:

Remember than anything above the 20k on the group purchase must be covered by individuals kicking in. It throws off the WBL tracking for individuals a bit, but if everyone shares equally it won't matter. :)

I also offered up 18k to the party.

Edit (hit submit too soon): if we don't need it for the above purchase I can donate to Allarnon so he can get some of the things he struck from his shopping list.

Ederin, can you use 6000 gp of that in diamond dust? We might need 5000 gp for a raise dead and 1000 for random castings (like restoration).
