Depending on your browser, check out an extension called Paizo Campaign Tools. It's a free extension that I use for Chrome. Once you post from a character/alias in a certain Paizo forum, it will default to that character for all your posts within the forum. It's awesome -- especially if you have a few Paizo PbP games going at the same time. It defaults to the correct character for each game.

Hey @Professor Plum great to meet yet another of your PC's, I am afraid that my only PC in 5+ range is Hoppper so ... you know ;) Great to be playing with you!
@Alex it is a pleasure to meet you!
It seems that so far we have a 3ft-tall team :D
@GM - great to be playing at your table! I am glad that I was able to sign up!
It seems that we shall be a bit more skillful team and less sturdy (2 bards, rogue, alchemist and a druid ;)) I am certain that we will be fine :D

Interesting. i do posted from my laptop on chrome, my phone does not have that... but every little bit helps :)
@Farol we actually played together previously for the Scoured Stars Invasion :) either way, hello hello

@Alex -- Good luck with the chrome extension. Hope it helps.
@Farol -- It'll be great adventuring with Hopper and Wolfie again! In fact, I think Watery Soup was our GM for our previous adventure when I brought Dr. Lazarus. The Doctor is back in Osirion at the University -- sipping his brandy when he's not busy imparting his (in his own mind) vast knowledge. Jeeves is hopefully more likeable (even though he's a bard).
Good call about our short, skillful group. We'll be fine as long as there's no actual fighting. :) Maybe the 2 bards can take turns inspiring the party.
P.S. Oops...didn't think to include the actual roll for Downtime. If you want that now, @WaterySoup, here it is:

I actually liked Doctor Lazarus, I found him likable ;) And yes Watery Soup was the GM. He actually GM'ed a big portion of Hopper games. I am always glad to meet other PCs of a player.
Hey @Alex, we did. I had a feeling I meet Surge before but you used an alias at that game, so I didn't see a reference to that game. You sneaky, you! Great to be playing with you again!

Hi all. Good to see some of you back, good to meet the rest of you.
Downtime choices (and rolls) can be done at your convenience. Recently, the rules were updated that GMs are no longer required to supervise the process - so if you want to do Downtime now or later or not at all, all are valid options. You are also free to request I leave it blank if you'd prefer to fill it in yourself.
---
As far as party composition goes, this is a Level 5-8 scenario, so I'm not going to comment very much. In general, PF2 is very amenable to different party compositions, but you'll need to watch out for each other.
Feel free to discuss any battle tactics you think you may need.
---
Also, feel free to begin spamming Gameplay if you'd like. There won't be any actual game play posts until September 6, though.
If you need an icebreaker, I always suggest describing where you were before this, and how you arrive. If you need further ice breakers, I suggest describing the street food your character might be drawn to as they walk through town.

This game has filled on the GDX spreadsheet. I note CigarPete / Wolstine has not checked in to this thread - if they haven't by August 30, I will PM them.
For my own reference, right now character levels are 6, 7, 5, 7, 6, 5 (18 CP).

18 CP for 6 member party means low tier right?
Hey Kuey! and Enchanter Tim good to see you both!
Just for other interest. Hopper is a bomber alchemist with the cavalier archetype. So he will be riding on a giant grey wolf called 'Wolfie'. Lately I played some 3-6 scenarios in which Hopper was one of the higher lvl players, there I was in the front of the action. Since now I am lowest lvl PC I will keep him as intended away from harm but roughly 20ft from the enemies. Light cavalry goblin throwing bombs ;)
Since we have a rogue I shall make a solid batch of bottled lightning => as they make the enemy flat-footed. If someone needs an elixir or a mutagen I can probably provide one.
Mutagens does not work with animal form :( as they have both Polymorph tag, but if someone else wish to go into melee, Hopper can make:
Drakeheart Mutagen
Stonebody mutagen and plenty of others.
In elixir space:
Cheetah elixir: +10 ft to speed for 10 minutes
Darkvision elixir
Cat's eye elixir: reduce the flat check to target hidden enemies by 5, don't need to make flat check vs concealed creatures within 30 ft range from you
I am at a level where Hopper can make more elixirs/bombs than he can utilize so let me know.
18 CP for 6 member party means low tier right?
It does, but for those used to PFS1, there's not a huge difference combat-wise between the highest low tier and lowest high tier. In the past there were 3 scaling possibilities - low, high with 4-player adjustment, and high. Now there are like 10-12 possibilities, and the scenario's level range went down by 1 (3-6 instwad of 3-7).
There's a significant bump in skill DCs, but overall if anyone wants to bring a higher level PC, don't let the subtier stop you.
I think I played this at the lowest high tier (with a level 3 getting the level bump), we all survived. ;)

Hey Farol! Great to be gaming with you again.
Raznik is basically just a step up from a feral kindergartener. He likes to shoot arrows at things and hunt small animals. He can find food enough for everyone, but just don't ask what it is. Goblin spit is essential to any "natural" healing. Bitey is his animal companion, an owl with a sharp beak. It'll be interesting to see what he thinks of Hopper and Wolfie.
He probably wouldn't turn down a Quicksilver mutagen if Hopper give him one.
Slides are up. Please fill in your icons, default marching order, Perception modifiers, and Initiative modifiers using your default exploration activity.
If your icon is not your Paizo avatar, please do me a favor and put a little text box with your name. :)
We've got a week and a half before we start - absolutely no rush.
The game will likely last 6-8 weeks, so start the game raring to go, rather than starting the game burned out already.

That's about what i was expecting, the 6-8 week thing.
as for burn out, nah, i'm good there. it's just this heat wave that has come through. the temp is high, but the humidity... it's sapping the life out of me. looks like things will drop down and be cooler after saturday, so i am very much looking forward to that >.>

Last year, I ran a game with a 5 animal companion / familiar party. I think we gave Groggg a barrel of ale to talk to, so he wouldn't feel left out.
Okay, it looks like everyone has their Perception and Initiative in. I've added Wolstine's icon in the leftover slot, and I think we're ready to go.
|
|
Huh, never thought about it actually. I mean, Khunbish would have in game reasons not to have thought of it, but hmm, its a +1 AC! Let me look at that.
Alright, would like to purchase light barding for Irves (10gp). That would go into this chronicle? Anyway, there's not much gear that a wild druid can buy...
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
It's only the first full day of what will likely be a 6-8 week game. I haven't noticed any delay so far that would worry me.
That being said, the choice is yours, and your health definitely comes first, so if you think staying in the game is detrimental to your health or will continue to affect your ability to keep up, I'll be sad to see you go but happy that you're taking care.
|
|
Hope you feel better, Gnestor!
Hopper, I just realized the Quicksilver attack bonus is an item bonus, so it won't stack with Raznik's +1 weapon. However, it does give him a bonus to his skills and speed, which he will enjoy!
Yes, that is unfortunate. On top of that you take damage equal to 2x your lvl = 10 in your case. Given that this penalty scales, after lvl 6 you loose more HP than you gain with every lvl.
|
|
Khunbish will get 2x lesser healing potions for his school items (Generalist). However, as he would often be in wildshape, would like to pass the potions to others to hold and use (doesn't have to be for Khunbish). Any takers? If not, I suggest the two frontliners, i.e. Raznik and Gnestor.
Separately, would like to check with the GM if it's possible for Khunbish and Irves to have different exploration mode? I think the rules aren't very clear so I've been checking in with GM for each scenario. If so, Khunbish would Search (Perception +13, [E]) and Irves would Avoid Notice (Stealth +14 [E]). However, this could complications for Initiative. What GMs have done in the past is to use Khunbish perception roll for initiative, but also allow a stealth roll from Irves to see if the enemies have spotted him. Wondering if GM is ok with that.
Adjusting for 5, 5, 6, 6, 7 = 14 CP.
Pathfinder Society rules prohibit player-vs-player actions, and splashing allies with alchemical weapons falls into a grey area. To prevent any misunderstandings, I would prefer to know everyone's willingness to be splashed.
As posting preferences in public can carry some peer pressure, I'm asking everyone to send me either a Private Message (Go to my profile, click "Send Private Message") or an E-mail (pfswaterysoup@gmail.com) with one of the following:
1. Willing to accept splash damage (usually 1 or 2) in most/all circumstances, no need to check first.
2. Willing to accept splash damage in some circumstances, please check each time.
3. Unwilling to accept splash damage in most/all circumstances.
|
|
Sorry, I should have been more clear. The crit specialization for an alchemical bomb is to increase the splash radius to 10 feet. Raznik has Ranger Weapon Expertise, which gives him access to crit specialization for all simple and martial weapons when attacking his Hunted Prey. Bombs are martial weapons.
That doesn't impact people's preference to or to not be splashed, just clarifying the rule I was referencing.
lol my -2001 is a Level 9 alchemist and I didn't know that!

TBC, with Battle Medicine, I'm only out of it for an hour instead of the full day with Godless Healing. Beyond that, I don't think we have anyone in the party with a spammable healing ability. Isn't that just Champions?
Our GM might mean that we can take 10mins to do Treat Wounds, instead of Battle Med.
|
|
Does anyone have Continual Recovery or Ward Medic? Raznik has Natural medicine in a pinch, but I think Wolstine's Godless Healing is probably better.
Godless Healing only applies to yourself, i.e. the person who has the feat, right?
Khunbish also has Natural Medicine (+13), so almost definitely to get the 2d8. If helpful, he can toss out an AoE L3 Heal (3d8), before the magic-less healing. He memorises heal spells primarily for out of combat healing, since in combat, he is usually in animal form and can't cast spells.
|
|
Jeeves has Assurance w/ Med for 2d8, but no Ward Med or Cont Rec.
Not sure the final hp totals, but since most of us have some Healing ability, we should make a good sized dent in the first 10min. In the next 10min, those with Heal Animal can refocus and help other companions.
With Wolstine's Battle Med recovering in 1 hr, instead of 1 day, that might be very useful on top of the Treat Wounds/Natural Medicine.
|
Godless Healing only applies to yourself, i.e. the person who has the feat, right?
That's right. The battle medicine being available again after an hour is also only herself - she can be healed again after an hour, but not anyone else. I've not taken continual recovery or other feats in the chain yet.
Can you leave some general botting instructions for combat and for skill checks (like "inspire courage and shortbow" or "attempt any trained check")?
P.S. Have fun!

hey all. sorry to intrude here, but i wanted to give a short update if anyone was interested >.>

it's been a rough couple weeks to be sure. i still feel like i'm in a bit of a fog at times... but i am definitely more functional than i was. there was a span of about 4 days in there that i had a temp of 102~103 pretty much the whole time. on top of not being able to breath properly, or stand for that matter. it all became one big blur. i do not recommend it.
thank you everyone for your understanding on my unexpected departure and hope the game goes great for y'all :)
