Out of character discussion when required

Please can you add a dot post for your character in the gameplay thread, then delete the post, to add your character to the campaign.

This is my first time playing PFS2E under the new Guide - do we still get consumables from our School at the start of the scenario?

There's a new table if I recall, so you'll have to check the 4-1 table found here.

http://www.organizedplayfoundation.org/paizo/guides/pfs2guide-en/player-bas ics-pfs2-en/#Purchasing_Guidelines

Yes, you get 1 free consumable. Unless you are field commissioned. Then you get nada.

Thanks - I guess I’ll take the minor healing potion.

Holy crap almost missed the kickoff!

As a note, Marcus has Bardic Lore and Dubious Knowledge. As such I can attempt all checks to recall knowledge using Bardic Lore, and if I fail (but not critically fail) I get 2 pieces of info, one true and one false. While Marcus is aware of his sketchy sources, he will always assume both are true until presented with data indicating otherwise.

For the record Talia does have the ACP boon for Adopted Heritage boon for hobgoblins. If you want to see it just ask.

I love doing different things in the new system! Makes things more, dynamic!

Tiring week and full day today, so will post tomorrow.

Just a little low down, I've been in Dreadfang's shoes before, 1st attack crit and straight to dying 2 ... I know it's not nice, but its just the way the dice rolled. As encouragement, that character survived....

The creature you're fighting is the creature 4 1st level characters face down here in this encounter... not saying it's easy for them, but ....

Eh, somebody had to take the hit.

always hard to see. But where is the adventure with out a bit of risk.

Yeah... That's just bad luck. Also just as a heads up Talia has a reach weapon so if the next crocodile approaches it will provoke.

These guys are nasty..... kinda glad I decided to go the medic route.
I'll be updating this list when Battle Medicine is used so we know who is immune from it later on.

Battle Medicine List:
Dreadfang
Talia

I believe that the hit last round on me would be a normal hit and not a crit since it didn't meet my AC.

You may notice that the roll does not include bonus to hit of the creature, I don't include those in the rolls. Also the same for saves and skill checks for NPCs.

It's the same if you see the rolls for the other crocodile above.

I forgot to say Happy Thanksgiving to all in the US.

Hope you all had a great weekend.

Derp. That makes sense.

Thank you! :-)

Just to give you the low down ...

You just fought an Elite Crocodile and a Crocodile, which is why the second one went down a lot easier.

I hope you all enjoyed it.

Dealing with family medical situation, will not be reliable for the next couple of days.

Don't worry about the game Marcus, we'll still be here, ready to welcome you back. Hope all goes well for your family.

That was a nasty fight. Glad I stayed around for it :-)

Best of luck, Marcus

Chronic issue, happens from time to time. I either update continuously and nervously or disappear for a few days straight each time.

Pathfinder 2E, where the wizards patch up your wounds and chase after you to make sure you’ve got the right safety equipment.

Time since you left 65 minutes King Zusgut .... 15 minutes + (5 x treat wounds)

Battle Medic used on...Talia, Dreadfang.
Marcus 16HPs
Talia 23HPs
Dreadfang 17HPs

Valdris Spells Used - Magic Missile, Mage Armour
Kudrek Spells Used - Mage Armour

Light sources all from light spells:
Valdris - dagger
Kurnek - staff
Marcus - rapier

This is as after healing up from the croc fight, with the exception of Marcus who may still receive a minor healing potion from Kurnek.

That's how I see everything, hope I'm on the same page as your characters.

Yes. That's how I see it.

Looks good to me!

I think 1 less treat wounds time since Marcus treated himself while the wizard patched up Talia's missing everything, but I'll admit to being not entirely sane right now and likely to be missing something.

Also, I thought you only get 1 healing potion from your school not 2? If we do get 2 then Marcus has 1 left of his own to chug. Either way he'll chug one and figure out what's in whose pocket later.

Marcus, you're not as insane as you think, I didn't take into account you treated yourself.

Yes you are correct by rights you should only have 1 healing potion from schools, but I'm not patrolling that so much, as these scenarios were developed when you could take 2 potions.

Any preference for direction?

Also, could the area template be removed? I can’t select my mini.

Right, just 1. No worries - Kurnek has 3 elixirs of life as well. Go ahead and take it, Marcus.

Hopefully I fixed it so you can move your minis.

I've moved Dreadfang to what I think you mean by the 'little alcove'?
Let me know if that's what you mean and I'll take the appropriate action.

That’s the one. Thanks!

Will post tomorrow...

give time for any more positioning inside the chamber.

Medical situation ongoing...

I vote north

Medical situation ongoing...

Hope it resolves for the best soon, Marcus!

Is anyone up for swimming? I’m game, if we wanna go that route.

S Let's explore the rest first before we go swimming.

Agreed. Let's clear this level of the map before pressing on.

Votes: 1 - through the sewer pipe / 2 - go back

Okay, back we go

How should we play this - diplomacy, intimidate, or bluff? Kurnek’s only social skill is intimidate, but I’m not committed to that if others would prefer to try diplomacy or bluffing.

Diplomacy if we can (I can’t).

They know who we are and why we’re here. Maybe we can broker some kind of deal.

Catching up... wife just got out of the hospital and also had a ~30 hr power outage at my house. Interesting times...

I hope everything is going well.

Owch! Good luck

I hope everything goes smoothly

Hope your wife recovers quickly, and the power company gets the lights back on soon!
