[ACO] 03-01: Year of Shattered Sanctuaries (P2) (Inactive)

Please complete the macros linked above. This will be used for initiative and secret rolls.

Please upload your token to the slides above as well. Thanks.

If you folks want to start early, it's fine. We can start early.

I have to tweak Nic a little, but should be ready by the weekend.

Sounds good to me, everything is in order. We could rp a little bit if we need be to wait for everyone to set up.

Day job lvl 1 Herbalism Lore x8?: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20

I thought there was a way to use medicine for income but I'm not seeing it.

Trig is a Medic. Right now that just means he's really good at Battle Medicine and Treat Wounds.

This is the first time that I will have played a melee character in 2e (I hardly play them in any edition) so any recommendation will be appreciated.

A few guides there for the Champion.

First role of melee is simple, do big number. Second is to protect casters. Third is to tank hits.

While that may be a more joking way of thinking about the melee class life, it has truth to it. With a Paladin you are probably doing a little of both, Healing, melee, and a more divine focus.

He uses a glaive to help keep things at a distance, lol.

Feel free to RP while waiting for the others. Please complete the macros and post your token, though, if you haven't already.

I'll do the macros tonight.

For distance combat is fine though. Essentially positioning will be an even more a matter for ya but you won't be entirely on the front line. Definitely read the guides.

The link does not seem to be working, but I am thinking of trading out deities, Ragathiel for Sheyln,

Try this link to the guides.

Do we know where we are at or if we have received any handouts?

Lots of options.

Okay, I think I got him where I want. Changed him to Ragathiel and will eventually go to Knights of Lastwall (Reclaimant I think). Changed from elf to half elf.

Most of the Golarian gods, to me, are meh. I do like Calistria and Sheyln, as well as Asmodeus and Sarenrae but also really like Ragathiel much better than Iomadae.

The Empyreal lords have a lot more variety than the main deities.

I think so too. Still kind of neat to have the son of Dispater in a game.

Macro sheet looks to be privatized

Macro sheet looks to be privatized

try now.

All good.

I've done the slides and macros. Just waiting for the official end to Port Peril Pub Crawl.

The GM for PPPC is joining us as well... :)

GM Tarthrin here! :) Hello! Nice to see you Joran, Maneki, Carson, and Gavin! Hope my first PbP as GM went alright for you all that you won't try to throw my character here into a pit.

Sorry for the delay, I missed the check-in post. I'm ready to go now other than finishing filling out the macro sheet. (Note for GM, Eidolons technically get their own exploration activity so I'll fill out a row for him as well.)

I'll be playing as Giles Morningstar II along with his Eidolon Ecthelion. Ecthelion will also be a front line fighter that can trip/grapple and hopefully take a few hits. Giles will be doing very little other than staying out of the way and avoiding getting hit as much as possible.

Do Eidolons benefit from medicine checks or Cure?

Yeah, they can be healed normally.

We share the same pool of hit points, so whatever heals me heals him and vise versa.

Good to know.

I am excited to see a summoner in play

Hope I don't disappoint!

Also, the shared hp pool means if one of us goes down the other does as well.

Probably won't be worth it but that also means the 3 action version of Cure heals both of you. Also once a day healing such as the normal version of Battle Medicine works on each of you as well.

Medic allows Trig to use Battle Medicine on someone who is immune once per day.

Nah, it only would apply the better of the two if we are both affected by an area of effect. Otherwise that'd be awesome, but fireballs would be double deadly too...

Lastly, the connection between you and your eidolon means you both share a single pool of Hit Points. Damage taken by either you or the eidolon reduces your Hit Points, while healing either of you recovers your Hit Points. Like with your actions, if you and your eidolon are both subject to the same effect that affects your Hit Points, you apply those effects only once (applying the greater effect, if applicable). For instance, if you and your eidolon get caught in an area effect that would heal or damage you both, only the greater amount of healing or damage applies.

Although I think you are right about both of us getting healed by battle medicine. I'll look into that.

Sorry folks. I'll move you along tomorrow my time. Completely slipped my mind today.

If having Ecthelion on the macro sheet screws things up too much I can leave him off

should be ok.

SaW Eternals yesterday, I really liked it.

micros filled out

Spells prepared today:
Cantrips - Electric Arc*, Prestidigitation*, Produce Flame*, Ray of Frost*, Telekinetic Projectile*.

First Level Horizon Thunder Sphere*, Pest Form*

Familiar abilities - Climb, Manual Dexterity, Speech.

PFS item - Holy Water.

Cantrips Forbidding Ward, Shield, Divine Lance, Electric Arc, Guidance
1st level spells Magic Weapon x2, Burning Hands.

Let's say Magic Weapon for my scroll as well. Can't have too many of those this early.

PFS item will be the minor healing potion.

oh yes. good point. Now would be a good time to choose your PFS consumable.

I will take the potency crystal I have the cry of destruction domain spell.

Sword, checked

For the crystal, I attach it and then activate it when I want to use it correct, it is not like a potion or oil?

O and taking a health potion

For the crystal, I attach it and then activate it when I want to use it correct, it is not like a potion or oil?

You fix it to a weapon. When you want to use it, you activate it.

All these healing items. It's like you lack faith or something ;)

Note I have the Continual Recovery feat so can use Treat Wounds on someone every 10 minutes. No Assurance yet so I'll let each patient choose.

I have +10 to Medicine.

Option 1. I attempt a DC 15 Medicine check healing 2d8 and removing wounded. If I roll 25 + total I heal 4d8 instead.

Option 2. I attempt a DC 20 Medicine check healing 2d8 +15 and removing Wounded. But failing the check heals nothing.

If I roll a 1 on either option I critically fail and deal 1d8 damage.

I just haven't had an actual healer in my groups yet, lol.

The other sword school options at level one don't help much. I'll switch to Oil of Mending. (In case we break some of the relics)

I understand. My irl tables had a lot of PCs with the healing feats. That's why my main character (Bard 6) didn't focus on healing. But playing online I noticed dedicated healers were pretty rare. Thus Trig.

Healing -- you're going to need it... almost had a character die in my high tier game... you probably saw the player asking about a resurrection boon... :)

I'll take a healing potion as well.
