I will have to think a bit on the purchases and let you know. Perhaps a longbow might be a good idea.
We don't have much in the way of ranged dpr, do we?
Solo adventure takes a while for me to write; Lorick and Vaen, you're not forgotten!
Solo... what? Whabuhwhat...? ...oh dear me...
...please do not kill me...
:-P
OK, not adventuring as such, but you all split up to run your errands, so I'm writing accordingly.
Yeah, I figured. I just had to pull your leg if only a tad.
Rocks fall; Vaen dies.
Damn.
Good stuff, DMU. I sure hope Juliet didn't run into Korvosa's version of these guys.
No worries F.Castor we'll declare a war on all rocks to avenge you.
I'm finding it hard to decide what to spend money on. Unchained Monks still have a gear issue :) I guess a temple sword?
Monk shovel, hands down.
Ranged touch weapons, like alchemist's fire?
MW skill tools?
Elrick was a child of largess, and like most children of the powerful, Juliet had assumed that he was in many ways weak, soft. That he wasn't was well, a little surprising, and disconcerting.
Ummm... you did get that he's the son of the Chelish ambassador, right? That said, he's a nice lad, for an Asmodean; a trifle naive perhaps, but his heart's in the right place*
*i.e. not on a dish on the altar**
**sorry

Haha, nope. That's where sis's is kept!
Nicely done, DMU!
Waiting to see if anyone else posts before I wrap up this little subplot series and move us back to the main theme.
Can't reliably post on weekends. Go ahead and I'll post a bit about finding a monk spade on Monday.
Same as Lorick, it has been busy this weekend. I'll try get a quick post in tonight though.
Sorry, I'm at PAX. Can't post really, assume I dodge around the question with my halfling friend and try and get her to take the money.
No problem, I'm on holiday and totally overlooked it was the weekend! I'll move things on tomorrow.
Hope you're enjoying PAX.
By the way, Vaenathis' purchases are the following:
Longbow - 75 gp
Arrow x20 - 1 gp
Masterwork backpack - 50 gp
Bedroll - 1 sp
Soap - 1 cp
Torch x2 - 2 cp
Trail rations x4 - 2 gp
Twine (50 ft.) - 1 cp
Waterskin - 1 gp
Now that was an awesome "Mom!" moment!
Heh. From the classic ("You're not going out dressed like that!"), to the contemporary ("Have you tried NOT being gay?"), to the timeless ("Honestly, would it kill you to dress nicely for once?"), it's all grist to the mill of RP materials... :-)
What is a monk spade? Can't find it on d20pfsrd or archives of nethys.
Can anyone point me to it?

Really good stuff on it in Wikipedia and Google images too.
Sorry for the slow posts! It has been, and will continue to be, an extremely busy week for me at work. So I apologize in advance for any slowness or briefness of posts. I'll try to make sure I do at least one a day.
No problems, I'm back from holiday now and pretty swamped with work too.
Right, another fight to keep things lively. Remember we're using the revised action economy rules: 3 actions plus 1 swift action a turn.
Ok Lorick will pick up
Monk's spade 20 G
10 shuriken (10x1) G
Potion of CLW 50 G
Evelyn: skeletons don't have Con. But your Str bonus is still good. Love the idea that she keeps knucklebones around; are they anyone's in particular?
Natural attacks work as set out on page 107 of Pathfinder Unchained: Make all natural attacks (costs 3 actions).

I know, they get HP from CHA. Augment Summoning gives them a bonus anyways so I figured I'd at least keep track of it.
Probably one of her "family members" which means that they likely belong to some unfortunate resident of the Grey District. I can name this particular skeleton if you'd like. She treats each one as an individual (even though she is probably the only person who could tell the difference). So far I've had partial jaw-bone skeleton and now knuckle bone skeleton. I can start naming them if you'd like.
Also, I made a mistake. I forgot to add the bonus from charge to the skeletons claw attack. He should be swinging at +6, not +4.
Juliet, I don't think you rolled initiative. If you want to delay (or if you roll low enough) you can flank with the skeleton. 15 may be enough for a hit.

Haha, this is great.

Thanks, I'll edit the post now. I'm not sure Juliet would wait, so she'll just go in whatever order init places her at.
Or are we just going by who posts first? I can't recall. Either way, I'll roll init.
How does everyone feel about the new occult classes? If possible I'd like to take a dip into Occultist next time we level up to boost my necromancy a bit.

I quite like them. I've got a spiritualist in another game, and I haven't been in any scrapes yet, but I think mechanically it will be fun to play, especially once 3rd level spells become available. The class has bad 1st level spells, decent level 2 ones, and great level 3+. The pet isn't as nice as a summoner's, but it will do for my concept, which will be mostly to serve as a debuffer (interestingly, the despair phantom's level 7 ability is a fear effect that is not mind-affecting, meaning that a lot of creatures can be pretty solidly debuffed). It has a nice skill list, which is always a plus in my book.
I love the occultist. Probably my favorite of the new classes. Thinking about going necrocultist? I also dig the mesmer, and the kinecticist seems fun, if a bit limited in its tricks at low levels.
I don't play full casters much so I've not looked too much at the psychic, but it seems fine. Medium I'm not sure about - I still need to wrap my head around a lot of the mechanics.

Yeah, if only to get command undead on my list. I'm really looking at it for the implements, especially necromancy. Mind Fear is crazy good and create zombie servant is fun times.
I'm really not a fan of the occult classes; that said, I haven't bought any of the splatbooks so I'm only going on what's on d20pfsrd. My only in-game encounter so far was with one of the spells (Deja Vu), which is ridiculously overpowered for such a low level spell.
If anyone wants material from that sourcebook please ask first so I can think it through.
I'd like to take a level of occultist if you'd allow.
I'm only familiar with the Spiritualist spells from OA, which I found to be quite underwhelming. I think the classes are in general very nicely designed, and fit into that fun/versatile space like bards, inquisitors, etc. in terms of power. Except the psychic, which being a full spontaneous int-based caster will be a strong tier 1, I think.
I'm going to be progressing Juliet as a swash until at least level 5, maybe 7 or 8, but I'm pretty up in the air with her build. I was going to go the signature deed / opportune parry & riposte route, but errata killed that one dead.
There's some new dirty trick-related feats in the Dirty Tactics Toolbox - including one that is meant to replace combat expertise, from what I understand. I hope to have the book soon and will run any of those feats by you for approval, if I have it the next time we level (none of the content is up online yet).
I'm also thinking about grabbing some baseline feats and then going barroom brawler to pick up a feat on the fly, but that seems pretty costly for a 1/day trick. Maybe just take a level of brawler instead. She could perhaps start training with Lorick to work it into the game smoothly.
I have considered multi-classing as a vexing daredevil mesmerist as well, but any multiclassing, brawler or mesmer, wouldn't happen until at least level 6, so take your time about mulling over the mesmerist, DMU.
Otherwise, any build advice that anyone has would be welcome! I rarely play straight martial characters.
Just waiting on Gehenna for round 1 before the thing acts.
Evelyn - I'm going to hold off making a decision for now, given that you aren't getting to level 3 imminently. That should give me some time to read up on the class in question.
I can't make a detailed post from my current location. Please gm post for me if you want to move things along. Otherwise I'll get a proper post in later this evening. Gehenna will cast mage armor first and then move within 15 feet of the thing.
No problem, I'll post accordingly.
Hi guys, sorry for the wait; work is going through a busy patch. I assure you I'm still here, hope you'll wait it out. Shouldn't be much longer. Apologies.
s'cool. Waiting isn't a problem for me.
Sounds good, DMU - good luck with the work stuff!
If only we got paid to play pathfinder....
I've read some of the GM-for-hire stuff but it always makes me feel clammy.
I'm back - and as my penance for the slow-down I've updated the NPC listing in the Campaign tab to include all the various people you've met recently.
Sorry for the continued slow-down guys/gals, work is giving me a kicking right now. I'm hoping to get some stuff out the way this weekend, so I'm going to put this on hold until Monday. From then on, my aim will be to get back up to my old frequency of at least one post a day.
Thanks for bearing with me. Apologies for the holdup.
The NPC listing was pretty kick ass.

No worries DMU! Good luck with the work.
What special update (like the NPC list) will you have for us on Monday?
I kid, I kid!
