How close does Harrold need to get to Herm to do aid another to hit?
Aid another to hit works by distracting the enemy with an attack. So you'd need to be next to the enemy to aid that.
Phooey
Herm, you can add the normal attacks too.
Yes Boss
Evil outsider and first hit with smite so double smite damage.
It is doubled, I just missed 3 times before the smite took effect
@Harrold
You're at K1. But enlarge Person only gives +2 strength. Do you have Bulls Strength?
I do.
I forgot enlarge only gives +2. Was going to give him both
With bulls Strength and Jominda's aid with take 10 it would work.
K1 is not on the map
You're just looking on the wrong map ;)
If no one objects I would lead us past all the monsters in this building, simply ignoring them and pass over the bridge high in the air.
If you agree to that, we would be in for another level up, before going there. As the monsters get more nasty on the other side.
Herm is fine with that
Before you cross that bridge, level up to 7 please.
One hint: Flying is really helpful. And not being able to survive a fall from 200ft (for 20d6 damage) into water where the swim DC is 20 is not helpful.
Will do tonight
Were we supposed to level up?
Yes, to level 7. I thought your 'Will do tonight' was the reply to me telling you to level up.
Yes then I forgot, I am a bad PC. I will do it "Right now" haha
I am not really sure what feat to take.
Furious Focus.
Greater Mercy is quite good fun
I will look tongiht, I was thinking Leadership lol
Another really cool thing you can do is eldritch heritage for a familiar
I gave up mercies for being a Divine Defender
You have a really limited number of LoH for that. You can do that two times for two rounds using up all your potential healing (assuming your profile is up to date). But if you make that two rounds count it can be great.
It is Channel Energy and yes you are right, I realize it is a standard action but I think over all it will be thematic for Herm since I don't know what else to take.
He doesn't have mercies to get those feats and I think being able to get bane of whatever weapon I use will be helpful.
Maybe your archetype gives you channel separately form LoH. But usually it's spend two LoH for one channel.
Lay on Hands (3d6 hit points, 5/day) (Su) As a standard action (swift on self), touch channels positive
energy and applies mercies.
Paladin Channel Positive Energy 4d6 (2/day, DC 15) (Su) Positive energy heals the living and harms
the undead; negative has the reverse effect.
Are the abilities Herm Has
From the CRB: Channel Positive Energy (Su): When a paladin reaches 4th level, she gains the supernatural ability to channel positive energy like a cleric. Using this ability consumes two uses of her lay on hands ability. A paladin uses her level as her effective cleric level when channeling positive energy. This is a Charisma-based ability.
LoH you get 1d6 for every 2 level pally -> 3d6
Channel you get like a cleric of your level for 4d6
Protector's Strike seems like Herm's thing.
Yes I see that now, I can always "retrain" it out lol.
Herm can use a LOH to activate an aura in 10' everyone gets +1 to AC, CMD and Saves, plus stablizies instantly
Jominda opened the door and started initiative.
She threw a bomb and flew away and is now over the river, where the beast can't follow.
Same for Harrold. Herm is somewhere in front of the door. Either directly, or some steps away, as you never wrote that you moved in any direction since the door was opened.
But closing the doow now might be difficult with the beast standing in the way.
"We can just go in quick and hit fast and maybe we can beat it" Herm says
I really like playing with you in this game, therefore I have to object here. The adventure is a bit railroady here, but you can't see the railroad, as the checks to see the plan are around 35.
Also the end is stupid, as it assumes, you use the remote control to steer Thomas to fight the last golem. If you walk in this room and get into a fight with the thing on your own you're dead. I don't even need to roll for that. So please take Kendra's advice and do a really thorough check on your options.
Waxwood knows everything about the inside and is eager to help you with everything you want to try.
I remember how this ends and I didn't want to make it so that Herm had any idea of what was going on.
He would Charge in and try to take it on and I was trying to play that out without using any Out of Game Knowledge, Kendra just needs to be a bit more assertive and Herm will follow her like he did her father.
No disrespect to Kendra and her Controller, Herm knew and followed your father and helped him out he will do the same with Kendra if she asks
Yes, Kendra is growing to respect Herm a lot, and sees his value. But she is also worried about him, therefore she doesn't want him just jumping in when the last monster was so tough already.
She is trying to come up with a plan, but she isn't the type to boss everyone around; she thinks that with proper thought the best course of action can be devised, and everyone will agree on it without her needing to boss people about.
Which is fair, Herm was brash as a younger man and your father and basically Boot camp tempered that a bit but it is a hard habit to kick.
That was the idea. Of course you can. Not that it will do you much good. But lets wait for Kendra.
to quote the great wizard Gandalf...
"Fly, you fools!".
As in, get out of there before the creature slices you to bits.
Flesh Golem's magic immunity: A magical attack that deals cold or fire damage slows a flesh golem (as the slow spell) for 2d6 rounds (no save).
Alchemist Bomb is (SU).
"On a direct hit, an alchemist’s bomb inflicts 1d6 points of fire damage + additional damage equal to the alchemist’s Intelligence modifier. "
"Supernatural Abilities (Su)
Supernatural abilities are magical but not spell-like. Supernatural abilities are not subject to spell resistance and do not function in areas where magic is suppressed or negated (such as an antimagic field). A supernatural ability’s effect cannot be dispelled and is not subject to counterspells. See Table: Special Ability Types for a summary of the types of special abilities."
A bomb is an SU ability that deals fire damage, hence golem is slowed.
Just as a reminder: Even though the avatar of the count looks pristine, in game he looks like s$@%. He could really use some healing. I would provide some, but I never could bring myself to take the discovery to be able to share my extracts.
Would it be ok to wrap this up and write you to the next day in front of the temple of Abadar with 500pp in your pockets?
Or do you want to continue the conversation with the count?
I am good with pushing forward to the next day, 500pp or 250?
If you're going after the whispering way, then it's 500pp per person.
which is 5000 gold, Ok time to shop I guess hah
But not before I write you there. Anyone else an opinion on moving on?
I am happy, and Herm, I am not sure what I want to spend on, so if you need a loan for something fancy, I might be convinced.
Herm is going to make his Master work full plate +1, which is only 1150 difference.
Other than that I am not sure what he needs right now
We don't know about the wolves yet right?
You mean those from the cover of the next book? Not really. But you can of course make a roll to see what you know about the Shudderwood.
As soon as I find out what to roll for that.
