Sounds good, Seer. We'll hang out. On the topic of alpha strikes or alpha options, here are summaries of some things Severa can and can't do. These alpha strike options include EVERYTHING she can do, not just what would be the combat normal as I listed on her sheet so the numbers are similar but higher here. She's mostly a flying tank that can do some damage, utility, buffing, etc.

Party buffing:

With inspire courage +2 to hit and dam, flagbearer +1 to hit and dam, and haste, Andrina will help all of her allies who make a bunch of attacks have a lot of fun.

Random utility:

Some other summoner spells like spiked pit and the option to drop her eidolon and summon all sorts of things gives her nice random utility. Throw in scent, flight, and good charisma skills and I think Andrina will find enough ways to contribute outside of combat to have fun.

Offense:

If she slaps on all her offensive buffs including the short term ones (enlarge person, haste, etc). then her offense is solid but not at all amazing by gestalt level 8 standards.

Attack bonus: +22
Damage bonus: +23
Slam for 2d6, slam for 2d6, bite for 1d10, claw for 1d8, claw for 1d8.
Can bypass all DR if doing a personal challenge.

Average damage if all hit: 143.5.

Note that she couldn't hit a clone of her buffed self even on a nat 20. I suppose I could wonder about the balance implications of that...

Defense:

If she slaps on all her defensive buffs including the short term ones (shield, barkskin, eagle's splendor, haste, cat's grace) then her hp, AC, and saves are pretty strong, even for level 8 gestalt, by my standards. She also has pretty strong swift action healing through lay on hands to add to her staying power.

HP 176 (humanoid)+66 (temp from eidolon)
AC 54 (10+12 dex+10 cha+4 armor+13 natural armor+4 shield+1dodge) T 37 FF 42
Saves F +23 R +23 W +23


Yep! Though there is a lot of work for the GM between closed for submissions and party selected. It can take days sometimes. But maybe Seer of Shadows is very efficient.


Phew! Caster here. Finished my paladin 7+scaled fist monk 1/summoner 8 just in time. It was a lot to put it all together but quite fun.

Cheers to everyone as we near the submission deadline. Seems like it will be quite a fun game for all selected. And character creation was a fun trip, for me at least, regardless of who is selected.
