Silver Crusade

Are you still looking for players? I have a 1st level paladin or mesmerist I could use. E'li just got picked up in another game.

Grand Lodge

dot

Grand Lodge

Sure, the more the merrier!

Silver Crusade

I can bring my mesmerist to help or a pally of Sarenrae. Which would be more useful?

Grand Lodge

The pally might help....my sawashbuckler is the only front line type...we also have a bard, cleric, rogue

Silver Crusade

The pally it is.

Silver Crusade

Is the plan to do through several scenarios as a group or just this one?

Silver Crusade

Let's see how far we can get :)

Grand Lodge

Hey Carla would it be okay to pick up a bow and some arrows with gold before making my first post, as if i bought it before we left?

Silver Crusade

I have hopes of going dragon disciple with this guy! Though I am wondering if it might not be better to do it as a blood rager?

Silver Crusade

@Lynn sure, no problem.

Grand Lodge

Ugh need more strength, I can't carry another weapon without being in the next encumbrance level DX. So i guess i'll pass on the bow for now.

I think I kind of like this better than the dragon disciple, I was playing with the build and a crossblooded arcane dragon blooded dragon disciple doenst work so well.

I like the arcane though, she could be bred by the naga to take out enemy spell casters. I wonder if a naginata might not be more appropriate.

Silver Crusade

As both a GM and a player I prefer Naginata over other reach weapons because that x4 has saved my characters' lives more than once.

Grand Lodge

Lynn, could always get a mwk backpack...

and +1 for naginata, that thing is vicious...although it just edges out the lucerne in my books....

Grand Lodge

Already have a MW backpack i've only got 9 base Str XD

Liberty's Edge

I think it is more theme appropriate since they come from Tian.

Liberty's Edge

She looks like she will be a beast.

Silver Crusade

Looks fine to me! Any backstory?

Liberty's Edge

Let me work on it.

Liberty's Edge

I need to fix it a bit she isn't going crossblooded but arcane

Liberty's Edge

Looking at the class, I never realized what a great class it is! Also, there isn't much on the Najagi in Inner Sea Races.

When are we starting?

Silver Crusade

I didnt realise you did not see the link, sorry! We've started with the opening.
Join here!

Grand Lodge

Holy karp since when has gather information not been a bard skill.. I feel like i've been living a lie... *cries in a corner*

Silver Crusade

It's part of Diplomacy.

Diplomacy:

You can use this skill to persuade others to agree with your arguments, to resolve differences, and to gather valuable information or rumors from people. This skill is also used to negotiate conflicts by using the proper etiquette and manners suitable to the problem.

Check: You can change the initial attitudes of nonplayer characters with a successful check. The DC of this check depends on the creature's starting attitude toward you, adjusted by its Charisma modifier. If you succeed, the character's attitude toward you is improved by one step. For every 5 by which your check result exceeds the DC, the character's attitude toward you increases by one additional step. A creature's attitude cannot be shifted more than two steps up in this way, although the GM can override this rule in some situations. If you fail the check by 4 or less, the character's attitude toward you is unchanged. If you fail by 5 or more, the character's attitude toward you is decreased by one step.

You cannot use Diplomacy against a creature that does not understand you or has an Intelligence of 3 or less. Diplomacy is generally ineffective in combat and against creatures that intend to harm you or your allies in the immediate future. Any attitude shift caused through Diplomacy generally lasts for 1d4 hours but can last much longer or shorter depending upon the situation (GM discretion).

Starting Attitude / Diplomacy DC

Hostile 25 + creature's Cha modifier
Unfriendly 20 + creature's Cha modifier
Indifferent 15 + creature's Cha modifier
Friendly 10 + creature's Cha modifier
Helpful 0 + creature's Cha modifier

If a creature's attitude toward you is at least indifferent, you can make requests of the creature. This is an additional Diplomacy check, using the creature's current attitude to determine the base DC, with one of the following modifiers. Once a creature's attitude has shifted to helpful, the creature gives in to most requests without a check, unless the request is against its nature or puts it in serious peril. Some requests automatically fail if the request goes against the creature's values or its nature, subject to GM discretion.

Request / Diplomacy DC Modifier

Give simple advice or directions –5
Give detailed advice +0
Give simple aid +0
Reveal an unimportant secret +5
Give lengthy or complicated aid +5
Give dangerous aid +10
Reveal an important secret +10 or more
Give aid that could result in punishment +15 or more
Additional requests +5 per request

Gather Information: You can also use Diplomacy to gather information about a specific topic or individual. To do this, you must spend at least 1d4 hours canvassing people at local taverns, markets, and gathering places. The DC of this check depends on the obscurity of the information sought, but for most commonly known facts or rumors it is 10. For obscure or secret knowledge, the DC might increase to 20 or higher. The GM might rule that some topics are simply unknown to common folk.

Action: Using Diplomacy to influence a creature's attitude takes 1 minute of continuous interaction. Making a request of a creature takes 1 or more rounds of interaction, depending upon the complexity of the request. Using Diplomacy to gather information takes 1d4 hours of work searching for rumors and informants.

Try Again: You cannot use Diplomacy to influence a given creature's attitude more than once in a 24-hour period. If a request is refused, the result does not change with additional checks, although other requests might be made. You can retry Diplomacy checks made to gather information.

Special: If you have the Persuasive feat, you gain a bonus on Diplomacy checks (see Feats).

Grand Lodge

Oooh thanks Gunther i would have never thought they made diplomacy also work like that.

Shadow Lodge

In 3.5, Diplomacy and Gather Information where actually different skills.

Grand Lodge

Guess i just never noticed that pathfinder wrapped them into one.

Liberty's Edge

That is one thing that I like about Pathfinder, put everything together.

Silver Crusade

i like some, but not others.

I like that Tumble was combined into a different skill (Acrobatics), but not that it was combined with Jump. I think that Climb, Jump, and Swim would have been a better single "Athletics" skill instead, as the three are not that common for skill checks, and it would have helped the Fighter who actually needed it rather than the Rogue who did not.

Listen, Search, and Spot, on the other hand made into a single Skill is just too good, make Perception the best skill in PF. Maybe better to have Listen and Spot as reactionary perception and Search and Appraise as active skills would have been better, (also keeping 2 for Wis and 2 for Int).

Diplomacy adding in Gather Information makes perfect sense, as does Open Locks and Disable Device.

I dislike the Fly skill.
