Which path are you guys going for the lands purchases? Is there any specific path that rewards better than another?

Each plot gives different benefits (as outlined on that Land Rush doc).

I'm pretty much making a b-line to G (for the Initiative bonus), picking up all Prestige-awarding plots along the way.

Gotcha! That's what it seemed like to me the direction you guys were going. I just wasn't sure if that was the case. Thanks, Desh!

Personally, because it makes sense for Garrett, I'm going to work my way towards E, then work my way up towards G. I never knew about this cool little thing with the Emerald Spire boons, it's pretty cool.

Lastly, Garrett is ready to go unless anyone has any requests on wands!

Flyn's player and I were chatting offline yesterday, and he's likely shooting for a more "mercantile" approach given his Exchange faction. So he might be looking for plots that boost his income or Day Job rolls and stuff. He wasn't decided, though.

Desh is just a scout and wilds-guy, though, so just owning some land and building up a training facility for other scouts is pretty much his goal at this point.

As for wands ... I have no clue. We'd be smart to have a few of the "survive" scrolls (like Lesser Resto I mentioned in the gameplay thread), but I don't know how critical those will be for this run.

Sorry to be of no help.

GM Engleaktig, I bought a mule to carry all Desh's extra gear (to keep his encumbrance light). My understanding is that mules can come with us into dungeons.

Will Desh's mule be able to accompany us to carry stuff? I figure it's better than constantly making my group-mates carry stuff. Now all they have to do is hold the leash.

Yes, the mule can go. Is it a "regular" mule? Is it "tricked out" in any way?

It's just a regular ole, 8g mule. As a rogue, I'm not even sure how I would go about getting it "tricked out".

I'm just bringing it for carrying capacity stuff.

Put spinners on it!

My purchases:

Heavy Darkwood Shield

Potion of CMW

Potion 2x scrolls of Bull’s Strength

Everburning Torch

2x vials of Alchemist’s Fire

That's a good point, do you want us to list our sells/purchases between the adventures? I've got it on a tracking sheet, but could easily copy/pasta it here if you want it on our Chronicles.

I put mine down so it's easier to track if I find discrepancies on my sheets, later.

Your tracking sheet is fine. Once you print out your chronciles, you're welcome to track your purchases there, in addition.

Who hasn't checked in or updated? I don't wanna jump in before people are really ready.

Looks like Kohinoor still needs to level up. Summary stats still show level 2.

Sorry for lack of posting this weekend. A couple of things came up IRL.

Please bot me as needed. We're in the process of having a death in the family, and I'm pretty much unfocused. I'll let you know when I'm back.

My sympathies, Kohi. We'll deal with stuff here.

So sorry to hear about that. :( Best wishes to you and your family.

Very sorry to hear that Kohi, you have my condolences. Take all the time you need.

*nods*

I think I'm going to start gearing Garrett towards Summoning. I'm trying to find some other good feats for a Core Bard, but coming up short. I figure he can pop out some summons while maintaining bardic performances and disarm/tripping... If I can ever get a good line of sight that is... lol.

What are your thoughts?

Thank you for bearing with me. I'm back-ish, but will be travelling across the United States this coming week. Feel free to continue botting me if I'm holding anything up.

I think we all slowed down a step. It's been bust lately for me, too. :-)

Kay and Garrett both know all there is to know about gibbering mouthers. They don't have any explicit weaknesses.

So, they know about the DR 5/bludgeoning? Nudge, nudge, guys...

:-) They totally know about the DR!

I'll let you guys know on my next turn.... Stupid gibbering mouthers... CR 5 my left foot! 6 attacks w/ grab, blinding ability, AND confusion...

I'll be backpacking from Aug 2-6, so bot the wizard! Said wizard has many summon scrolls left!

And I thought Kay mentioned bludgeoning in thar...

Thank you for your patience over the last week or two. I should be back to regular posting, for now at least.

No worries. :-)

Hey! Welcome back, Kohi. We've done our best not to get you kilt. :D

Thanks! I noticed I was blinded, but I think I've recovered?

Yes, the blindness from the acid spittle is only temporary.

Heads-up: I'm going out of town tomorrow, and will be out-of-pocket a lot over the next week. I will try to post when I can, but I don't want to slow down the action. Feel free to bot me as necessary.

I'm out starting friday evening, too .. should be back in the saddle fully next thursday.

Have fun, guys!

I'm back--and whoa, everyone left again? I rolled well on Intimidate against a bear with the Young template, made all my Survival checks...

A bear??

A small bear. It was going for our backpacks when we stepped away from them for a snack.

Dang!

Folks, I have to do a little bit of travel this week. I expect to be able to continue to post, but if there's a day or two when I seem slow or unresponsive, please bear with me. I might be stuck somewhere. :-)

And I should be back in the saddle tomorrow. Thanks for bearing with me over the small vacation.

My apologies, but I have just been informed about the need to do some further unexpected travel for the next couple of weeks. I expect to be able to post once or twice a day as usual. However, there may be a day or two when I'm unable to post at all. Sorry about the inconvenience. Please bear with me.

No problem! We all seem to be rather patient types.

This has been a very rough module for me, due to a lot of changes in my personal life. I'm currently traveling back across the country (Maine was a toxic situation for me), so I'll continue to be spotty. If I haven't been here enough to actually get credit, I totally understand.

You're good, Kohinoor. :-) I hope, at least, we've been able to provide a fun distraction from time to time.

Glad to hear that you're leaving a bad situation. I'm inclined to give you a chronicle sheet, if you want one. :-D

Sorry to hear that, Koh. We got your back.

Indeed! We shall endeavor to deal with these ambushing miscreants together!

Agreed. Stuff comes up, and Kohi has definitely been a contributor. Post as you can, but at the same time don't let our game become another burden.

Hope things are getting better for you. Keep your chin up! You're still standing, and I consider that a win. :)
