How?

lance attack+ charge + Trample+ Rage powers

Mammoths cant fly.
AM's cohort synthesist from leadership can.

not to make this seem kind of obvious... but... Huge sized Horseshoes of Flight could do that

And you could pay tens of thousands to get those and find a mammoth somewhere, or you could have what you need and more from one feat. :)

by mid to high levels you have the money to burn on a set of horseshoes for a now ARTILERY unit

Meh.
Not gonna argue. There are mega paged threads. Go read them.

I posted the mammoth thing because I saw that pic while scrolling through the internet, not beause I want a min/maxed barbarian

how do you people feel about words of power/wordspells etc?

I believe DB3 is fond of them, I think.

I sought to employ them, and they will add a level of librarian like tracking in their use, but, it did (sadly) feel as though the combinations for their use were less than standard spell lists.

Course, that could be an illusion due to not actually using them, but, at first glance, love the style and method, execution though, was IMHO, limited.

I do love the principle of them, the 'intent'.

They should be usable as high level spells along with normal magic, IMHO.
My ideal system would be:
Psionics type Power Point system.
Taking metamagic feats to modify spells by adding more power points to the spell instead of levels.
A Meta Magic for a ton of points to remove expensive components.
Words of power given point totals as equivalent spells.

See? :D

Victory, i think you broke dice.

Not yet, but the minute someone replies to something the dice reply bug will rear its ugly head again. >.<

So you can get away with this in other games because reply is less important, but in a game with multiple story threads happening reply is essential. (hint, hint, to those who don't use reply when having a conversation with another character which often leads to mysterious apparent non-sequitors that take time to figure out what to do with.) Anyways, there is a bug in the dice code that causes dice = "stuff" to turn into a long random string of numbers when replied to. Please, please, please put what the role is for in ooc text and only use the dice command for the numbers. Unless you know for sure that the dice reply bug has been conquered in which case I no longer care. But last time I checked it hadn't been.

Am exhausted. Was a very long day. Will try to get up some posts before collapsing. No promises.

Oh, it was broken already, with a total roll of 1224. It got fixed.

Ah. Missed that. Obviously. But did notice as I was reading through that it was going to cause problems due to the ongoing dice issue.

Wait, using the

Text: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11

and clicking reply breaks?

Can someone explain and/or give an example?

[dice=Text]1d6 + 5

Test this?! I don't get it. :(

it's because the reply puts it as

and don't put a closing thing on it

(bracket's removed)

So, what's wrong with that? You just don't see the totals, but you can see what someone's attempted, isn't that useful?

I'm confused as to the 'issue'. It stops re-rolls.

Wait, using the

Text: 1d6 + 5d6d6d1d20 ⇒ (1) + (17, 15, 10, 15, 12, 9, 1, 12, 10, 8, 6, 14, 18, 1, 2, 19, 9, 11, 14, 2, 1, 8, 9, 1, 15, 6, 3, 10, 10, 12, 3, 14, 9, 19, 3, 10, 11, 7, 12, 11, 11, 3, 13, 6, 6, 20, 17, 18, 5, 15, 5, 7, 4, 1, 4, 3, 17, 13, 1, 6, 15, 4, 3, 10, 11, 17, 13, 5, 12, 8) = 653

I put a single 1d20 ⇒ 5 in there
that's it
and it was after the /quote

The problem occurs when you have a roll that is formatted like {dice=text}, and in the person's reply, they also roll dice. Just follow the request of the GM and refrain from doing that. it is not that much harder to put your dice roll labels outside of the dice brackets and inside of an ooc bracket.

please and thank you.

Wow.

Wild.

Fairly sure this has been reported to the WebDevs here, though, curious what the process for submitting these errors are.

:goes to check for tech forum:

Thanks for educating me on how this happens and how to avoid it.

off to see Thor be back later...

It should be a fairly simple fix unless their code is a sordid tangle. The main problem is that there is an open tag but not a close tag, so it reads all numbers between the quote and the next dice close tag as part of the dice roll.

Just have it quote the number like a regular dice roll, and fixed.

I don't know their code, but it doesn't seem like a complicated bug to me.

I believe I am still waiting on Belyu's action for this combat on Belsayv, though why Vickory didn't just Coup de Grace is beyond me. Still.

Maybe he/she likes rolling dice. ;)

Guess I need to rename my Ditto. XD
Any new ideas?

Clone master?

Hope those helped. I've never played any Pokemon.

I somehow missed that it was an available option at the moment.

As for dice I originally used "," instead of";" which had fun effects.

As for dice replies, I didn't know there were bugs. It never came up before. Of course, I never had multiple attacks like this before (on pbp anyway)

Any case, it can be avoided, now that I know about it.

Ah, it's my go? I must' ex missed it. :/

Did my spell do anything at least?

Ace is waiting for a reply from Repp, I believe.

Quick check in before leaving to go see Thor 2. It's been a long week....I need a night off. :)

Anyhow, I wanted to point out that Royston's last post has some problems. Ryleh's lair is not on any maps. The people who need to know it's there, know. It isn't advertised. Sorry for not making that clearer. Also, there is no sub-basement. It's just a normal basement. With very high ceilings. Anyways, the light he has on him reveals that it's an empty music room. It wouldn't be dark if they turned on the light switch.

Speaking of Thor, I've been watching The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes recently. The theme song is awesome!

agreed,

Thanks Lynora will change

The boards are being super crappy for me today. :(

Belyu: I somehow totally missed that, my bad. I'll just say the spell dealt full damage, and it is Belyu's turn again (since the stun won't matter now that he's paralyzed). In the words of ots of things, this message is for you Belyu:

[MK Voice]FINISH HIM![/MK Voice]

Fatality. :)

Because he's helpless, you confirm the crit automatically. ;D

<shao khan>HAHAHAAH PATHETIC<shao khan>

Hey DB3, DSP is re-doing tome of battle for pathfinder...dunno if you knew that. Their frist class is done, the Stalker, which I believe is their version of the swordsage...

May work for Belyu...she seems maneuver-y

Question:

Does a potential champion's personality, outlook, etc affect overly much their being chosen? I would say yes, but I'm not sure, since that would be the obvious answer, and Patrons are anything but.

Generally, champions are chosen for their strategic value. Their personality dictates how the Patron will put themselves out there. For example: Chan was murdering everyone, good for a power grab/tyrant approach, but now Madness is on the defensive and so chose a Champion which might trigger ethical qualms in some people - murdering a child isn't really in the Avalon crew's MO.

I did know that, Kryzbyn, but I could never really get that type of character class right.

Unrelated news!: my friends black throat monitor lizard escaped into the house last night.

At a local anime convention. ^_^

sweet, have fun

just in case you didn't see it

Ice...your character's emotional enthusiasm is overwhelming
