Just for the record, I'm putting together a Cardcast deck with the posts from this thread. You can use these decks on Pretend You're Xyzzy to play online Pathfinder-themed CAH with anyone. It's not finished yet, but the code is 8VKC6.
You now need a free hand, like an actual fencer does. I'm in a group that does some historical-style fencing. My favored style is rapier/dagger. It's definitely the most common style around here. Other common techniques that could apply to Pathfinder:Rapier/buckler Rapier/staff Rapier/cane(similar to staff, but with disarm) Case(two rapiers at once) All of these are equally valid and would be well represented with Dex-to-damage. Rapier/free hand is for people who haven't gotten a dagger yet.
could arguably be more inately evil is diabolist. Demoniac is on a similar level, but is likely more destructive, because chaos. On the original subject, vivisectionist has the issue of being able to get lots of natural attacks AND sneak attack. A well-built vivisectionist on a sneak attack can wreck stuff. Personally, I'd hope for the various gun archetypes. It wouldn't change the guns, just the people holding them. Also, most of them aren't so great mechanically.

Update:
That's interesting, I've not seen or heard of that race before now. what's the wording on the new Boons? can a person use one New (say a new Aasimar boon) and one old (an older Tiefling boon) to make one, or does one have to use two newer boons...One of the two boons used would need the extra text detailing the rules to merge the two into a new race option. And the new Aasimar doesn't have the text.
I've heard mention of something called Child of Chaos. If it's real, I'll trade my Sylph, Undine, Factor, and Technophobe for it.It's a Ganzi and can be made by combining a new aasimar and new tiefling boon. In that case... Have:Sylph Undine Factor(any rolls between 1 and 5 on a Day Job count as a 10 on the die) Technophobe(+1 AC/Attack/Damage against robots, chance of glitching with tech items) Want:
I will trade the whole lot for that Tiefling.
If you've got access to the materials, definitely be a Peri-Blooded or regular Aasimar. Two of the only races to grant +2 to two mental stats. As a regular Aasimar:
As a Peri-Blooded:
You can take Reactionary instead of Elven Reflexes.
I've always liked Legalistic, from Blood of Fiends. No real benefits or drawbacks, just that you can't break your word without getting sick. With some careful choices of phrasing, you may never notice the curse.
Once again, it's always a good time when Mikra Blackiron is around.
Voice in the Void: So the basement of the Blakros Museum is a loop. We enter the left door, smash a giant T-Rex, blow up some black puddings, ignore the mushrooms asking us weird questions(Do oranges have feelings?), and keep walking.
Eventually we come to the room that connects to the door on the right-hand side of the entrance hall. As the party member with both decent AC and darkvision, I walk into the room. I am almost instantly downed by the flanking gargoyles. We have a really great healer, no big deal, someone else takes the AOOs and I crawl out of the room before they can hit me again. On my next turn, I am mostly healed, but still on the ground. One gargoyle is left. Anyone who read my previous story knows where this is going. Still lying on the ground, the skald coughs, and with all the ferocity of a dying dwarf... The gargoyle is demoralized and takes 9 points of fire damage. A shame it passed the reflex save.
My skald's crowning moment of awesome...
Race For the Runecarved Key: During the 'earn money' phase, my team wound up in an arena fighting a cryohydra. Remembering that hydras don't like fire, we start trying to pull out fire attacks, without much luck. On her turn, rather than raging as normal, the skald glares up at the hydra, yells "F*** YOU, BUDDY", and it spontaneously combusts. Blistering Invective. Great spell.
Thanks, Dad. Honestly, Zohls has pretty boring blessings, but Travel gets the 5 foot step thing and Good has a decent buff. you could start taking levels in Kineticist I don't have a copy of OA yet. It looks okay, but nothing has really impressed me enough to actually buy it.
I've got a character who's unexpectedly at level 7 due to playing a certain module this weekend. I know that there's nothing really worth it past five levels of Bolt Ace, so I'm thinking about multiclassing. Stats:
Human, LG follower of Zohls(LG Empyreal Lord of investigation), uses a Repeating Heavy Crossbow. Here are the classes I've been considering and their pros and cons: Unchained Rogue-
Fighter-
Cleric-
Warpriest-
Inquisitor-
I also have a ridiculous sum of money, as one does after gaining three levels without spending anything. Basically, help me figure out how to make this character cooler.
Let's see...
Honestly, I probably wouldn't have made the Tiefling or Aasimar if it weren't for the fact that it was my last chance.
Forgotten Realms. Last time I was forced into D&D, I played Merisiel, who had been tragically ripped from her home plane. (It was a terrible game, but not because of that.) Would you rather play only randomly generated characters, or characters built by a small child with no understanding of the mechanics? |
