HA! Oh my gosh, how in the WORLD did you find that?! That is freaking amazing. There is NO WAY I would've ever been able to find anything like that.

Wow. Just ... awesome. :)

lol, a lucky search string and a little time to see what it returned. And some luck.


You know, I just noticed that a game that Arigoder and GM Variel and I were all in together, a Shattered Star game, hasn’t been active in over a year. I’m not sure what it says that I just now noticed it.


Lershim, do you have any ability to see in darkness? Went through the profile but didn’t see anything unless a magic item granted it


Nope. I mentioned in my spoiler that I only just now realized I can't see in the dark. Sigh... stupid hafling. :)

So I'm not going too far really. Might be a waste of time...

Just as well. I suspect your target will feel your presence in the ground rather than relying on vision alone. You might have gotten into serious trouble.


I can fly if need be, but yeah, good point. I probably wouldn't start with flying...

I was tempted to offer flight, but I don’t know how stealthy you are and didn’t want to steal your thunder.


lol! No, steal my thunder! I'm quite happy to be buffed. :D

Lershim wants to kill demons and survive. Whatever that takes, he's fine with.

What map? I totally can't find it. All I can find is an old combat map.

Ooooh, okay. Thanks. I guess I missed it. Or just forgot about it. One of the two. :P

Component Freedom (Ex)

When you cast an arcane spell, you can ignore one component of the spell: focus, material, somatic, or verbal. You can ignore a focus or material component only if its total value is equal to or less than 100 gp × your tier. You can select this ability more than once; each time you take this ability, the number of components you may ignore for each spell you cast increases by 1.

That’s amazing! I can see why you’d rush to take it. I’d choose that in a heartbeat for a caster.

I took Subtle Magic to make it hard to tell when Ansha was casting a spell, but I didn’t realize I could flat-out remove verbal and somatic components by taking Component Freedom multiple times. xD

Sorry, folks, I'm just buried. Don't wait for me to come up with my perfect loadout for the encounter.

Variel:
Would it be too over the top if Damiel left his Terendelev scale with Nasira and didn't tell her? Like, he's leaving, but felt the scale should stay with the group, so he slipped it into her pack? Then we would retain it with the group? It was Sacred Weaponry.


Nasira let me think on that one how best to keep it and Arigoder's in the group.

I'm terribly unsure.

Are we all in the cavern after the spiral and below the bridge? That is, how far did Morgrym have to go to engage with the creature?

How much does Nasira know based on Ansha's knowledge check, did she share any of her newfound knowledge?

Debating a channel to harm or a healing spell to harm undead, but don't know if Nasira realizes that's potentially effective. Alternatively, she might have buffed allies, but it doesn't last a long time, so she didn't want to waste it while we traveled.


Female Elf Wizard (Manipulator) 15/Archmage 7 Portrait

Ansha did specifically say it was undead. Presumably she’d tell the party what’s in the Knowledge spoiler, but that’s unfortunately not too much.

I was thinking that was shared... So the main question is how close Nasira was to the festivities when the party started.

96 static damage damage Thurin? wow...143 damage taken total

The 96 is from the Mythic Vital Strike feat. But he only gets 1 attack. But it can get NASTY if he hits! :)

Yup! Mythic vital strike is my favorite. Only one attack, but it hits like a truck. It’s the equivalent of precision mythic ability from champion (removing the iterative attack penalties). However I know some GMs don’t like mythic vital strike because of the huge damage numbers that are possible (this is Thurin without prebuffs!) On my end I plan to only use the extra standard option with dimension door, so to avoid hitting twice. And won’t take options like double damage from mythic legendary item. However, even with those limitations if my character is becoming unbalanced please tell me, and we can work out how to get him in line with your expectations. I would like to avoid having a character that is too underpowered or overpowered, as both extremes are bad for a game.

Also i show my math on how numbers are reached in my profile. If anything seems wrong, please feel free to check them. I’m not immune to mistakes.


Likewise for Lershim. I don't have the benefit of coming up with you folks along the way. So I'm going to have blind-spots (like darkvision, nicely fixed!), but I may also be over-built.

We'll know with time, but if something I'm doing is a problem, please speak up! I have very thick skin, but also want this to be a community game, not just me doing stuff. :D

I’ve only been here since the beginning of Book 4, like, 5-6 years ago xD

Iirc, Variel is the only one who’s been here since the very beginning of the game.

I trust in what you guys have built. It’s just that I don’t know all the little variations that stack to make it work as your numbers suggest. Just too many rules to try and go through. Please don’t fee like I am critiquing or criticizing just asking for clarification.

Nasira you know the first creature is undead but no one knows what the others are until after you made it around the bend and faced the room properly.

Oh and with tremorsense it knew where each of you were and how fast you were coming down so had some time for spells and prep!!!


Lershim you noticed that the creature followed you as you flew past it. Not invisible at all to it.


Ouch! Well I'm visible now anyway, but ouch! :)

It didn’t throw up a shield spell to negate my magic missiles, did it?


no it does not have shield up Ansha. I missed your post originally but added it at the end.

Also something to pay attention to is action economy. If you are using an immediate action you do not get a swift action on your turn. This means that no divine favor for you Thurin or the Rage Power for you Morgrym. Not sure how this will affect your to hits now but also remember the str damage on your 'to hit' rolls


Ansha will your sunburst hit Lersheim now that he moved a bit. If yo ucan add a radius template to the map that would help know who you are targeting

Good to know! My profile has the numbers listed with and without it. Would it be helpful to post it in gameplay or is it clear enough on your end?


Male Humanly Awesome 'n Totally Rockin' Paladin of Greatness

Okay, after looking up Morgrym's numbers, I've messed up absolutely everything on the hit/damage side. It's a disaster. That last round... it's all wrong. Ugh.

So, if you would, please just consider Morgrym's previous round of attacks all a "Miss". I don't care whether they hit(even if it was a 20) or not. Just trust me. Too many errors on my part that are just beyond ridiculous.

Next round WILL be correct.

Thanks.

I couldn't move my own icon while I was on my phone, but I've moved Ansha and also added an 80' radius aoe template. I'm figuring that Ansha would have to angle it up a bit as well, to target a point on that area to the east (which I assume is up a cliff or something).

Just to give a heads up sorry for no post this week. Had some family issues with 1 uncle and 1 great uncle pass away. Will get a post up with saves and reactions saturday. Again sorry for delay

Yes, sorry for your losses. We'll still be here whenever you're up for continuing.

I hope you and your family are well, Variel.

Here, we are late in the packing for our annual fall trip to somewhere else. I will likely have access, at least by phone, so my normal (slow) rate of posting should not be interrupted. In case I don't get back here for a minute, have a fantastic day. Every day.

Cheers!
