Oh, sure, post a video from WoW which I'm in (google Jonathan Garrett WoW and keep in mind I had a friend who worked for Blizzard who knows I hate damned dirty zombies) and a character that looks like me. Suuuureeee.
It's very definitely a coincidence. o wo
Or is it!?
Thanks for mentioning the lot-out stuff...I thought I was going crazy, or that I accidently changed some setting.
It's a real pain - but at least it seems to be on their end.
It is a pain in the posterior.
...wait, is that your wiki?
I've been reading little bits and pieces of Spheres of Might when I have spare time, and I like the result so far. I want to try building a character with it, but will probably end up waiting for the Hero Lab files since I haven't got much time to spend.
...I did not know that. Huh.
Yeah, things can get out of hand. Now it's a one stop shop for third party funtimes.
Cool, I had now idea you ran it.
Wow. Awesome Wiki!
I might be interested in picking up a few things. I think the challenge package from the Guardian sphere could be cool on this guy. Also, Shield sphere, naturally.
I might need to go for one of the "give up a feat progression" options.
Thanks.
I am very busy these days, probably will be for a few months.
(currently on vacation at home with less time to spare for personal stuff than I expected, then training 'reinforcements' at work...3 new people to do the job I've been doing, so that I can do more important things -_- then second child arriving in January)
I'll find time to post(or take it, except the week after baby is born)), but no idea when I'd get to consider concepts and work on something that works out flavorwise and being 'cool'.
Probably Sigurd and Farod have a higher chance of getting 'sphered'.
Yeah, I need to spend a night in contemplation of which characters want or need it.
I'm not too sure about Isen, but regular Feats aren't terribly essential for him either, so...I'll have to see what can be done.
I like the way Guardian/Shield spheres interact for making it harder to hit my allies, then active defense to keep my own AC up.
Also, our first baby is due to arrive in January as well!
Congratulations! As a father of four, I grant you the following advice.
- Burn a matress in a last ditch effort to kill your sense of smell. Oh, it starts off not being too bad, but it gets...worse.
- Buy stock in your favourite caffiene maker - Red Bull, Coffee, Monster, whatever works for you. At least you won't feel so bad about buying so much of it then.
- Know that no matter how cool the toys you buy are, the box or plastic bag it came in will be better until about 3.
- Floor food is the best food.
- I have gone through...let's see...two laptops, three main computers, dozens of models and so many snacks existence is actually a chocolate bar now. Your stuff will be broken and eaten. Possibly both.
Actually, although all that is true, it's actually a lot of fun.
Sorry about that. I usually only update the full character sheet when we level up, to use as a base. Then make the adjustments needed for individual roles as circumstances change.
It also helps me to mark things that are gone (strikethrough) and things added (bold) so the next time I update I can clean up the hero lab sheet.
Whoo, thank you.
...shinies.
And Merry Christmas to folks.
Sweet. Merry Christmas!
Belated merry christmas and thanks.
@All games(well, not the crew duplicate legendary planet): My apologies for the unannounced absence.
As many others, I had been visiting family during the christmas holidays.
I figured I would have some time to post in the evenings - alas, I only had my work laptop with me, and due to neglicence on my part(I don't really actually restart it all that often...hibernate FTW) my certification for the VPN-Tunnel that is enforced on all internet access was not up-to-date. Result being that I had no access to the WWW despite W-Lan availability.
I could, and should, probably have written such an update from my phone, and posted it to all my games, but honestly, I've been too lazy for that - not really a big fan of writing much without a keyboard. So, apologies for that. I came back home today, and will try and catch up with all games as soon as possible/over the next 48 hours.
Just as an heads-up(for all my games): In less than 24 hours from now, my second child will be born.
I took a one-month leave from work to stay at home, so chances are I will have opportunities to post.
But between bonding with the little one and keeping the bigger one entertained, my posting patterns MAY be erratic at times, which is why I feel it's fair to inform fellow players(and GM's).
Only the faster-moving games will find a need to bot me, I hope, but if I am responsible for delay, do move on.
Oh really?? My first is on the way, and today is the due date, so... very soon.
So many pregnant folks.
Not yet...
So, regarding the Sphere conversion...I would like to swap out the Slayer side for Sentinel.
Slayer was basically there to provide full BAB, some Combat Style Feats, and Studied Targets to make do with less Dex/Str, where most of what makes up the character came from Shaman.
I feel Sentinel is not only a overall stronger(=more flexible/resilient), but a more flavorful option as well. And together with Spheres lets me do my primary tactic even better. (that whole 'Shoot people at range, use extra hands for a reach weapon and a bash-ing shield to make them regret coming close'-thing).
It's been a while since you extended the offer, but I stated back then that I'll be needing to take a look at things - so I'm asking now :)
Will do.
That said, I did try to show where I got talents and stuff from both with Sigurd and Farod.
(Though I just noticed I did not transfer those I got via Feats for Farod...which I am certain I did. On second look, that clean-up I did for the profile a bit ago did not seem to have saved properly. *sigh* Guess I'll do that again, then.)
Anyway, thanks - and it'll be my 5th practitioner ^_^ I'll still make sure to show my work, Prof!
Did not quite manage to finish the profile update today(in fact, some things are simply placeholders - also I saved the original to disk in case you don't approve...I know to only apply changes after it's ok, but I need a workspace ;) )). Anyway, this listing is by no means final, but I am posting to ask if it will be acceptable in that form(at)?

Hey guys, sorry about being absent lately. My first baby was born two nights ago, so things have been a bit hectic. Mom and baby are doing great and we just got home from the hospital. My posting might be a bit sporadic for a while, so please feel free to bot me to keep games going.
Congratulations, Vincent! Enjoy! ^_^ *Maniacal Laughter*
So tired. So much poop.
Oh good, you've got the expectations for the first couple of years already sorted then.
@Poop: And it starts smelling worse, too. ^_^
The real fun begins when they start eating regular food.
@Tired: That's your life now. Welcome to parenthood! ^_^
(That said, just wait until your little one cuddles up to you with unconditional love, as a conscious decision of wanting to be close to you - that kind of feeling outweighs those less-fun parts manifold.)
It's true, it does. Both the terrible smell of poop and the unconditional love bits.
Last night was definitely the best night yet. Only woke up once for food and the peepocalypse.
*GM-poke* I think we all posted and wait for an update.
Just out of curiosity - is there some means to 'unlock' our mythic powers again that we have not considered?
I was specifically trying to think back on wether we ever succeeded on the fortitude-saves against Nausea...but I think we actually did, right after arrival.
Then I considered that maybe it's a persistance-thing, as in, try a couple times and if you make 2 or 3 saves in a row, you 'break' through.
Or is this book simply supposed to be non-mythic again?(at least until we find the Opus?)
Mostly, wondering if we missed something, did not consider something, or if it's simply supposed to be that way, for the time being.
All good, thanks :)
I just remember how we double-leveled after Book 1, I was then realizing that we must have missed a lot of content - ever since, I am slightly paranoid about what else we may be missing. Including stuff like that :)
Your answer makes me feel more at ease about it, so thanks a lot!
Oh, thats all good. But I don't think I ever skipped enough to double-level on a checkpoint, so...yeah :)
...and yes, I'm one of those guys who compulsively need to 100% their games if at all reasonably possible.
