The Brute Squad Heresy (Inactive)

Game Master ThorGN

Is what trait legal, Elven Reflexes? Yes, of course it is. Most of what is in the APG is legal.

I like the Elven Curve Blade idea.

Remember that HeroForge is not a legal source. You need to know what books the things you use are from and make sure to own a copy. I'm not sure where that Taldor Trait is from, but I would suspect it is from a splatbook. I'm not sure it is worth spending money on the PDF to use it. Programs also make mistakes sometimes, so you should know the system well enough to identify them.

Well, I don't. I own the core book, APG, and Ultimate Combat because that one damn dwarf had to have a gun.

I'm not sure I'm going to get anything built quickly, it takes an evening, not a minute during the day, and the iterations are becoming chafe.

The trait I was asking about is the Taldor Expert Duelist trait. I'll try to find where it's from, because it fits.

If Noa's taking too long, I'll accept being left behind.

Don't worry about the time, I'm literally rebuilding Broot as I type this thinking about going Fighter 1 for first level, multiclassing into cleric at 2nd which would occur provided he survives this scenario and then fighter again at lv3 and cleric from 4 on.

:)

FYI-I looked for the Taldor Expert Duelist and I could not find it. Let me know where its from when you find it.

I changed my lvl 1 Mage Armor Spell to Shocking Grasp and picked up the wand of mage armor as well as a Haramaki.

what is the correct procedure to obtain the wand. I was going to use my 2PP to get it, Don't I need approval of some kind?

Pathfinder Field Guide to Organized Play. Archives of Nethys has this as 'Guide to Society Organized Play'. Which is the same book as the Performance Artist trait that is supposedly out. Ah... I see, the latest book has the Performance Artist trait, but it's been nerfed.

The Expert Duelist trait is the same.

You don't need approval to spend PP, but you do need a GM to sign the paperwork.

Broot, what kind of Fighter?

After the long holiday weekend, I got really sick. I am still trying to find the time to prepare this module while getting caught up on life.

I was thinking about shield bash type. I didn't even look at archetypes yet. Was thinking of dipping 2 levels of fighter but now I'm considering Cleric as my dip class... I'm also considering forgetting the whole idea to avoid doing math.

Rushing through my morningenow, but I guess I do.

Want to use it? It's okay if not, since I'm having trouble deciding what I want, and might be better off just rolling.

Broot, what kind of Fighter?

After further review of the fighter archetypes I think Two-Weapon Warrior would fit perfect for what I have in mind. Although, It seems like it would take forever if I dipped Cleric.

Well Broot, if you want to tank, Clerics are some of the best tanks. You could also look at aiming for Stalwart Defender eventually.

This Fighter dip Cleric thing sounds a little odd. The biggest question is what do you want to do with the character? Ignore party makeup. What to you want this character to be?

I understand. I've found the chronicle sheet, I do in fact have one to use. I'd have to look at the list to choose or to advise, but it's a big list, something has to fit. I saw elemental stuff, Noa speaks Ignan, maybe that. Will read it more carefully and get back.

Well I'm on a "sword & board" kick right now. The builds I've been toying with are feat heavy though. I feel like this character is more caster support at the moment and not much in the way of front line support like I might want him to be.

I'd probably drop Steel Soul and add TWF, move some ability points around, get a light spiked shield, Improved Shield Bash, Shield Slam, Improved Bull Rush etc etc

It's more doable with a fighter's feat availability and full BAB progression.

Reading over Stalwart Defender now. Never messed with Prestige Classes before.

I like the Unbreakable Fighter as a lead in to Stalwart Defender.

OK, I've read the list on the chronicle sheet, and the most useful one seems to be the +2 effective STR for carrying capacity. You can plan around that. The others are really minor or unreliable, or let you get ahead of the party, usually a bad thing. You KNOW you're gonna carry stuff. :)

I agree, I don't think we have to choose the same one, but that one and the low-light vision looked like the best to me. Now I just have to decide...

Which would retain its usefulness more at later levels? I'm leaning toward the low-light vision; it's only a matter of time until I can afford other ways of carrying more, and Dasiji is likely to be on point a lot.

Senses powers are good, and hard to otherwise replace. Bue have to light things up for the least gifted guy, anyway. But I do see your point about you being on point.

Carrying capacity won't be much of an issue after you buy a Handy Haversack or Bag of Holding.

Low-light vision is good if you don't have it.

I also like the bleed damage one.

Okay, I'll take number 15, Reflective Retinas.

Ready to go whenever. I decided to play this character out as I had intended originally; 100% cleric.

That's good, since I like him as a cleric. I was just wondering what your thoughts were on his domains? I get Protection/Defense, but to me, Earth/Caves looks like a better fit than Law/Archon. Broot isn't even the same alignment as archons.

Oh yeah, Caves is great if only for the fact that you can cast Create Pit!

I thought I only had to be within 1 step of an alignment in order to choose a domain. I went Archon for the 8th level Aura of Menace. I thought that would be useful. I do suppose Earth/Caves gives me more immediate benefits and a ranged attack. It has been so long since I made this character I forget why I opted not to take Earth.

Oh sure, it's legal, just didn't seem as fitting. (And the Touch of Law power frankly doesn't seem so great.)

It's situational and probably better suited to RP situations involving reasonably high checks ...

re: gameplay - Lest it be obvious, I have no idea what I just said.

"there be little room 'neath a dwarf" - very funny.

I'm waiting on you folks...

I didn't want to monopolize the conversation. I can post pretty often, so expect several posts a day from me, if it gets to much just shout and I'll pull back.

Sorry, I'm normally much better about regular posting (as those who've played with me before know). By a sheer coincidence of timing, I got caught up in the start of a new character. Shouldn't be any more distractions.

I swapped a skill point to take KN: Religion. I hope that's OK. I figured it wouldn't be an issue since we are still just starting and I'm still level 1. I can switch it back if it's an issue.

Also, you might notice I went with Dasiji's suggestion and swapped out the Law,Archon for Earth, Caves domain.

I cannot wait to light someone on fire.
I'm excited about this Sorcerer, I've never played one before. I'm usually a Fighter/Barbarian type.

Can I add the low-light vision to his character sheet? You only get to choose if someone else is using an emerald elixir at the same time; otherwise you have to roll.

Nice Dasiji. I'll steal that and use it.

Bottoms up! Noa will drink hers, too.

I forgot to include my bonus spell.
What do you guys think, Ear Piercing Scream or Magic Missile.
I'm leaning towards the scream and flavoring it as soot being blown in the eyes for the daze effect.

What bonus spell? "(Unlike spells per day, the number of spells a sorcerer knows is not affected by her Charisma score; the numbers on Table 3-15 are fixed.)" -- CRB, pg. 71

Yup, your right. That's what I get for trying to check over my character while working. I had that backwards. Oh well, guess I'll take that next level.

Noa loves to stomp on the plot. The plot says gently, "go here", and Noa says, "No!!! I will not go unless you drag me kicking and screaming!"

The plot said, "I have a dozen people working nearby, but I'm going to lock this door and ignore you".

I think cashing out her dancing shows I'm willing to work with the plot.

I should have built a moron, then it would all make sense. "Carriage-man gives me hood for head. Me take nap, OK?"

I understand there are rails. Sometimes, there's also a siding. Sometimes, there's a "If the players ask X...". Well, how can I ask X if I don't risk stepping on the plot?

Roll on. I'm here. I got my mind right, boss.

If anyone's interested, my other PFS character, a Dwarf Inquisitor is running in the second part of a campaign, found here, level 3/4:

We need one more to begin.

My highest is a Lvl2 rogue... All my PFS characters are pbp only so leveling is a slow process.

Ditto.

I posted for it. :)

And you can be level 2 if you want to play up on that one.

Yeah we have a lvl 3 barbarian who does massive damage.

All my characters are PbP as well.

What do you think is good armor to get for my Inquisitor? I have around 600 GP to spend.

I have 5PP to spend as well.

I bought my Longbow for 2 PP after my first scenario.

Do you want light or medium armor in the end?

It doesn't matter. the most AC would be best. I only have a +2 Dex mod, so I have a ton of options.

I will move this discussion to the thread Gryne is apart of.
