As a heads up, I will be off the grid from Friday afternoon through Sunday evening, so no posts from me this weekend. (Taking a bunch of middle schoolers to a youth ministry retreat!!)
Crappily, I have to withdraw.
Too many things going on to reliably keep up. Good luck all and thanks for your time whtknt
Sorry to see you go, Sudara. Hope things calm down a bit for you.
@WhtKnt - With Sudara leaving, do we want to recruit a replacement, or do we want to move on with seven?
I did not have anyone in particular in mind, was just curious more than anything.
All the best, Sudara. I was interested in seeing your character concept develop.
Just to let everyone know, I am going out of town for a couple of weeks. I may need to be botted for this time, but I will try to post if I can. Basically have me run around and smack things when appropriate.
Walls, tables, doors, the occasional chair just for variety. Got it.
My bad. Walls, tables, windows, doors, the occasional chair just for variety.

Happy Thanksgiving!!
Happy Turkey day all. Gotta get back to my cooking. That stuffing and mashed potatoes won't make themselves.
Happy Thanksgiving, folks, and thanks again for letting me join the party.
Not quite sure why this has to be night time fight. We met up with Jadale at mid day (i.e. Noonish) and the tower is about 30 minutes from the keep. It doesn't seem unreasonable to deal with the tower before night fall.
Agreed.
Great - let's go get some goblin ears!!
Honestly, I did not realize it was our go. I thought the goblins would do more than move.
I'm after the goblins in initiative, so I'm waiting.
I've been waiting on the end of round 1.
I missed in the surprise round, and suspect I hit in round 1. Just waiting to see that resolved.

I think the goblins spent their turn moving, so you can probably post.

We will be taking a break from the 19th to the 26th of December, inclusive. Merry Christmas, Joyous Yule, Happy Kwanza, Happy Saturnalia, or whatever holiday you choose to (or not to) observe.
In that vein, I am giving a Yule gift to all my players; everyone may select an extra feat for your character. This must be a feat that you normally qualify for, and for which you meet the prerequisites.
Very cool! Thanks and Happy Holidays to you and everyone on the thread!
Looking at possibilities for Zirrel, I would start by saying if anyone has their eye on a teamwork feat, this bonus feat seems like a great time to pick one up.
Otherwise, feats that interest me: Agile Maneuvers, Arcane Strike, Combat Expertise, Combat Reflexes, Elven Accuracy (though I have no bow atm), Weapon Finesse. I'm not sure that Lingering Performance applies to my Archeologist's Luck though it seems like it did after an earlier perusal.
I like hearing what other people think about what they would choose, so if you have an opinion on what Zirrel should do, let me know!
I'm game if people can agree on a teamwork feat, otherwise I'd say snake style (which I qualify for because of my archetype, I would be grabbing it next level otherwise).
If we go teamwork, I'd say Lookout or Duck and Cover.
Long-term, I'm thinking Zirrel might concentrate on maneuvers like tripping with the whip. Combat Expertise allows him to work toward Improved Trip, Agile Maneuvers lets him use his better Dex score instead of strength, and Coordinated Maneuvers would allow him to team up with someone for maneuvers against a foe. So if I stay with that theme, those feats would be strong. Weapon Finesse is probably a must for him eventually if he's going to be in a fight, but I am not sure he will be a primary fighter ever - buffing allies, debugging foes is more what I have in mind.
Lookout would be intriguing, though. I had not really looked at it before.
Thank you for the extra feat! Merry Christmas now! I'll try to choose wisely!
Thanks for the extra feat! While I am not opposed to the teamwork feat option, I am sure we all have plenty of feats in our character design that we would like to have as well.
With Lucian being the switch hitter and already having Point Blank Shot, I think I might be looking to help out the meele side and take Power Attack or Weapon Focus (Falchion).
Congrats, Reigar =)
I'm thinking about taking Extra Channel or Martial Weapon Proficiency with the Dwarven Waraxe...
Was busy getting a home, getting engaged, and doing all those grown up things.
Yes, congratulations! Remember, you cannot avoid growing old, but growing up is optional. My retirement-age father's words to live by.
Changed my mind. Hagnar will take Great Fortitude to compensate for his yucky rolls!
I will take Weapon Focus (Falchion). Thanks again for the bonus feat, WhtKnt
Based on this FAQ, it would appear that Agile Maneuvers would be less of an immediate benefit than Weapon Finesse. It sounds like most folks have a non-teamwork option the like, so I am leaning toward Weapon Finesse at the moment.
Lucuis, I don't want to bail on you if you wanted the teamwork feats - what do you think?
The team work feats are only great if a lot of people take them. I'm OK going with snake style instead.
Crossbow attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13
Crossbow damage: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9
1 for Lucius, 2 for goblin: 1d2 ⇒ 2
Natalie,
In your most recent post you have a variable for the target of your shot. To the best of my knowledge, there is no variable for targets in melee, just a -4 penalty to hit your target.
Looking back at a few of my recent posts it may sound like I have been complaining a lot lately, that is not my intention. If that is how it has been interpreted, I apologize.
Just trying to lend a hand with the rules and if the way I have been reading the rules is wrong, correct any misunderstandings about the rules of the game I may have.

Weapon Finesse it is, then.
