Heh.

Done! Two Arcane Bloodragers, and two Paladins, should do the trick ;-)

I did answer your question.

Sorry, I missed the answer, I was trying to get caught up on the reading....

Ummm, so what did I say that brought that on?

Complaining all day about not having "combat" classes.....

For clarification: the Bloodragers will be good for self-buffing, and DPS.
The Paladins will be good for healing, status removal, and some damage.
Both can (theoretically) be reasonable 'faces'.

;-)

Some other time. After this whole AP probably.

Don't feel confident about running 2 PBPs at once even if I should(technically) be able to pull it off.

I'm was not complaining about not 'having' a combat class. I'm was complaining about not getting to play a combat class character ...


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

Here's a complaint...

Here's another...

And you could have always rolled an alchemist, Mr Hyde style ;)

Yeah, I didn't say I wasn't complaining, I was complaining about not playing a character class that I prefer.

I looked at alchemist, even ran a couple of ideas past you, just none of the ideas were acceptable to you and I specifically said I didn't wnat to play a 'Dr. Jeckle/Mr. Hyde' character

I will try to stop complaining about it...

Get some rest and feel better!

I'm off Sat and Sun. so I will be posting my regular hours, I will be able to check the boards in the mornings and evenings

Howard only:
I realized I screwed up. For all the conversations between you, Abbott and Costello they should have referred to the King in Yellow instead of the Yellow King.

There is significance to this. My bad


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

Else you could have arcane duelisted it. They do get heavy armor proficiency at 16.

I'd be up for an all fighter game. Tried to join an ironfang AP that was fighters only but didn't get selected.


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

I think you get issues at high levels unless you really stock up on consumables.

But oh well, it'll be an experiment to try out...

Male Human Conjuror (Spirit Binder) / Summoner (Synthesist) 17 (HP 173+123.5/173+123.5) (AC 52/15/47) (CMD 39) (Fort +22, Ref +23, Will +24 (+32 Vs Enchantment; additional +3 Vs Mind-affecting) (Init +17) (Perception +42)

Well, there *are* fighter archetypes that grant spellcasting...

Failing that, everyone stocks-up on ranks in UMD, and/or item mastery feats.


Half-Elf Investigator (Bonded) 9 / Magus (VMC); HP 81/81, Init +1, Perception +18+1d8, +4 vs traps; Vorq Perception +15+1d8; AC 18/FF 16/T 12, +3 vs traps; Fort +7, Ref +8, Will +8, +3 vs traps; CMB +11, CMD 22; Inspiration (1d8+2) 8/8; Arcane Pool (+2) 8/8;

It's doable. Would be fun. Might die but would be fun.


Spells:
1st Intensified Shocking Grasp (cast), Blade Lash, Frostbite, True Strike, Magic Missile 2nd Web, Mirror Image x2, Defending Bone (Cast), Scorching Ray, 3rd Haste x2 (1 cast), Sleet Storm
Passive stats:
HP 57/57 {65/65} | AC 21{26}/T14{15}/FF18{22} | F+10/R+7/W+8 | CMB +6 | CMD 21 | init +4 | Perception +6 {+8} |
Active effects/ Limited Use abilities:
Active effects: Shield (4 round), Defending bone 40/40, Mirror Image 6/6, Haste (3 round), Flight | Arcane Pool 8/9 | Black Blade Pool 1/2 | Maximize Spell 1/1 | Empowered Spell 1/1 | Reach 0/1

I'd probably play a ranger, that's a very sweet class.

Also, I think that climb being a skill and thus not requiring the expenditure of resources is a fairly weak argument for not allowing a character to climb onto a flying person and try to hit another flying person. I think it'd be really dumb to try it, though, and if I were a GM I'd make it hard to grab onto the flier. I'd also hand out a penalty to attack, and the flying person might try to, um, fly away.


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

Urm...my attempts to weaponize explosive runes? =P

Who the hell gives a cleric rune domain...must be the most useless domain ever...

Anyway I guess spell immunity was for..That too..


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

Actually I'm not very sure if adjacent will allow a reflex save...Mmph.

It's a bit fuzzy...

The statement "next to the explosive runes (close enough to read them) takes the full damage with no saving throw"

Meh. Go debate with me abit...I can sorta see how you can look at the other side of the coin, but again, what would "next to the explosive runes(close enough to read them)," mean, if not adjacent?

When would it apply?


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

Book 4 prep done.

Tomorrow I'm going out for a run so don't do expect delays in da morning posts.


Spells:
1st Intensified Shocking Grasp (cast), Blade Lash, Frostbite, True Strike, Magic Missile 2nd Web, Mirror Image x2, Defending Bone (Cast), Scorching Ray, 3rd Haste x2 (1 cast), Sleet Storm

Oh man, running is fun. I went for a run today, but, uniquely for me, it was on a treadmill. It was weird.

Also, does that mean do expect delays?

I can't think of anything to add to the explosive runes conversation.


Half-Elf Investigator (Bonded) 9 / Magus (VMC); HP 81/81, Init +1, Perception +18+1d8, +4 vs traps; Vorq Perception +15+1d8; AC 18/FF 16/T 12, +3 vs traps; Fort +7, Ref +8, Will +8, +3 vs traps; CMB +11, CMD 22; Inspiration (1d8+2) 8/8; Arcane Pool (+2) 8/8;

Well for example someone opposite the paper couldn't read them, lol.

I think the intention is no save for reader and people next to them looking at it, save for everyone else within 10ft. But it's poorly worded so you get to make the call as DM.


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

That's why I wasn't to keen on the random copying of any spells you like - the mod already provides spell books... It's not ROW where there are none. If the mod provides, I see no reason why I need to add to it.


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

You could take a Kali like eidolon, you just can't take multi weapon fighting =) Besides that was synthesist talk...not alchemist.

And I even did give you a semi decent build for a single weapon wielding synthesist.

Vincent, I can't remember if we ever sorted this out, but my current statistics do not factor in the belt of constitution. It's yours if you want it.


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

Good. Please make up your minds about this because it's giving ME a headache factoring your hps.


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

Also adventurers are loot greedy b@stards,so it's no surprise that people would rather full clear the dungeon so to speak. I don't care so long as a choice was made.

I don't see the point of you getting lewt without putting in any effort so to speak.

I wouldn't leave without ranksacking anything of value here.

Ok Leonard adding it to my sheet. It's +2 right?


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

If there are reasons why it isn't worth it to full clear I actually will warn you. Like in ROW, I didn't want the party running into a roomful of shadows and a greater shadow. There was no loot in that encounter and people say Shadows aren't representative of their CR.

If you are humanoid and get killed by a shadow, you become one, and that's something you need resurrection to fix.

Waiting for party actions BTW.


Retired to Taldor?

just got back from out of state, I'm off today, so I will be posting until around 10:00. But will be back to work Monday night, so will return to normal posting soon :-)


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

Waiting for Seamus but I know his Mondays are rather busy.


Retired to Taldor?

sorry about the delay, I will go post


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

I promised I'd help a friend recruit, so here goes:

LF one more

Character creation rulkes here here

Basically try to stick to CRB (the only thing I indulged in was dimdweller), and choose from 18, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9 array
*OR*

One 18 and roll the rest, 4d6 drop the lowest.

Equipment:
100 gp of gear

Party is currently a cleric, two rogues (one of them left and is being botted), a ranger (me), an occultist, and a magus.

Id probably like having someone who could knowledge monkey around but asking Robert to roll a wizard is ;)

Just go send PMs to the GM if you're interested


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

6 days more to my Christmas party! We'll have a kg of ribeye beef steak(medium - well done), 3.5 kg of ribs(last year we had 2 kg and late comers had not enough ribs),2 kg of roast lamb shank with bone-in, a mixed sausage platter, 25 chicken wings, 2 packets of fried rice, 2 packets of beef bologonise spaghetti,
sautéed Brussel Sprouts with bacon bits, boiled French beans, buttered kennel corn, sautéed mushrooms.
And 1kg of hazelnut praline log cake.

For a lunch party 12 people. Let's hope everything goes off without a hitch =)

On Christmas day, you won't see much of me =) Parteh!


Retired to Taldor?

so who is doing all of the cooking?
edit See, this is proof that I'm not paying as much attention as I used to, the restaurant name and menu was on the post... I'm so embarrassed!


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

Buying in and bringing it back home. I have no clue how to make steaks, nor roast lamb shanks...frying chicken wings would mess up the kitchen.

Lamb shank,mixed sausage platter, 2 kg of ribs, and beef bologonise spaghetti will be from Tims.

Steak and another 1.5 kg of ribs will be from isteak - I took their 1 kg communal platter with sides. Added extra sauteed mushrooms.

Fried rice and chicken wings will be bought from the hawker store downstairs. Some of the family still has very traditional chinese palates...

Not to mention to actually cook those items would require at the minimum probably to be up at the crack of dawn.

We'll leave the Italians to provide the drinks =)

Basically just a gigantic pile of meat, eh? Sounds good.

Looking into that game you linked.

Complain about the new boards here!

Hey! I'm a large cat! And no, this has nothing to do with Zip...she's considering vegetarianism.

Also there were vegetables.

"sautéed Brussel Sprouts with bacon bits, boiled French beans, buttered kennel corn, sautéed mushrooms."

Those are vegetables!

But really if your family are incorrigible carnivores, a huge pile of meat is what you end up ordering for parties.

I tried salad two Christmas parties back. Not many people ate that. I think it's our preference for cooked veges, or maybe no veges at all.. ;)

The Exchange

Complain about the new boards here!

The issue is my family is Chinese and rather traditional so they won't take raw vegetables like salads. And the Italian side is too busy stuffing themselves full with the meats to look at vegetables.

Our traditional palate does not seem to extend to meats cooked using western methods...guess meat lovers share some things in common afterall...meat is meat, no matter how its cooked?

I do eat salads of course but I might be the odd one out...

That explains it then, cats prefer the taste of meat to sugar.

Though I haven't eaten meat regularly in several years, I genuinely cannot remember a meat dish that didn't taste good. Merry christmas.

If my voracious meat eating appetites have upset you in any way, I’m sorry!

I think she was trying to steak out her claim as a cat.


Retired to Taldor?

due to the angle of the steps does Seamus have a clear view of green? How about red?


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

Green is good, red you get cover from the bed. Seamus you're already on level ground so no issue seeing them.

Sounds like a feast. Merry Christmas! Early!

I am on vacation for two weeks starting Saturday so I will be a lot slower posting. Bot as needed during that time.


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

Okie. If I have time to bot lol.

Where you going for vacation?

Also off to play path of exile. See you in 1.5 hour or so... :P Seamus is probably asleep and so is Leonard.


Retired to Taldor?

I figured I would check the boards one more time....

Actually still awake, but about to go to sleep. This is my schedule on extended holidays like christmas break, and will remain so until mid january.

Nowhere lol. Just hanging out festivities and doing house work I can't get done during work work, and kids etc.

Sorry, but I couldn't post until Vincent did...and of course when I finished running some dungeons with my brother in Path of Exile =)
