Phb says you can work with your DM to either tweak existing backgrounds or create your own.


Bumping. Took Diplomacy and Knowledge Arcana at level 2. Currently reloading as a free action with alchemical cartridges and attacking at +3 unless shooting into melee. My other PC is a Dwarf (Urban)Barbarian 1/Alchemist 1, front-liner/skill monkey/support healer. Just not sure what to do feat wise. Go Extra Channel energy and craft magic arms and armor? Toughness? Improved initiative? meta magic feats? Ranged Combat? I'm going to be a bit feat starved so I feel it's important to choose a direction and stick with it. Which path will work best for the AP?


I gm for one player mostly and every few sessions I have to fiat his character back to life after hints being ignored.

I just love the Hekatonkheires Titan. A massive 50 headed, 100 armed giant. What's not too love?

Also, I just have a love for the Shoggoth that goes beyond my fondness for Lovecraft. It's a gibbering, mouthy ooze of great size.

Alas the Hekatonkheires used to be a Cr 57 :( guess we have to settle for a nerfed version.


Inquisitors are BADASS.


Wow! A first level character with rich parents could streak through the streets of their home settlement wearing only this hat! Does it give the illusion of being clothed?


Shimesen this^. Only you worded it better.


That would be ridiculously high in published adventure. Homebrew, if you need that much beware gm shenanigans.


Yes it appears one can. Hmm, can't remember everything I guess.


Edition bloat tb expected, some good some not good. Little to no fighter love/ not good.


Technically, isn't a cr = level 50/50 in a one on one fight? Cr equivalent foes are 20-25 percent of a party s resources or a possible death. So you 20 per centers actively avoid apl +1 encounter s or Cr equivalent 1v1? How heroic.


They can't take sub domains? I'd like to see a 25 point buy mythic tier 1 level 1 runeforger. Any takers?


More paladin stuff? They en vogue this month? -"ya gotta be f%#!@: kidding me"- quote, my boss.


Nvm. Close but no cigar.


Did you just repeat exactly what bbt just said? Are you in fact a bbt clone?


Honestly, I am glad things have cooled off, I don't care if the thread dies now, I think we have one another's opinions , too bad we couldn't skip the 50 or so combative posts and boiled it down to the more reasonable stuff. I acknowledge my own contributions to the 50 aforementioned combative posts.


I believe there is a difference between optimizing and powergaming. I >have no evidence to support this.<

At the bottom of the page you will see "How to format your text".

Beside that is the "show" button.

That shows you how to use the BBcode. If you really want to know how to use it inbox me.

I taught another how to do quotes. I think I got him using url's also.

Wraith, on a lap top I would attempt it. But on this touch screen phone I think I will end up getting too frustrated!


8th dwarf I don't see using material responsibly as power gaming. It's the"milk every advantage" idea. Anyway wish you had come around sooner but alas, with my incoherent writing, you wouldn't be able to understand me at any rate. Cheers.

Don't see how I can be more clear? Already said I can't link information. If I could why would I, it's not a trial. Sorry I use the net but never took a computer class so I could paste you tube clips on my forum posts to seem superior? Sorry i hate obnoxious powergamers and can't prove that they receive preferential treatment. Sorry I "accuse" people without proof, babble incoherently and share oxygen with such elevated beings as those crusading against me and my evil opinion thread.


Look Hama, I see what you are doing and it's kind of petty. Why not let one person fight their own battles. I really don't care if mart's your bosom buddy, coming in to flank me for him is getting old.


Whatever. You seem not to be able to rise above it so label me if you will but be aware you may be tarred with the same brush anyway.


@ manimal ,I like your argument. Wish I could tell you this had been intended to be more than "hey if you can relate or agree come chat" as I wasn't looking to battle, more the fool am I.


Sorry, I take it your class is full? Or am I supposed to take it lying down?


Thank you Lincoln. Also before we get locked I might add that this thread as with a good number of threads I start, were never really intended to be a serious subject.


Do I detect nerdrage?


@ Mikaze, sadly, on this phone it merely grays out the thread as compared to a computer where it disappears. Before jumping to conclusions no, I don't have internet nor can I afford it. This phone gets 3g allowing me to post here when not at the library.


Your reasonable response from me in general discussion"only you can prevent forest fires" thread :)

First off, one word can't constitute rambling. Second the L and 2 together make an R : KMAl2T, why is my handle kmart? This is a strange nickname I got almost 15 years ago and I've used it since for an internet alias.

See, I provided a reasonable, coherent response.

yours is in another thread up in general discussion.


You my friend may need to see a proctologist, as it seems increasingly apparent based on your various responses I've read while checking your history(we have a bit on here of late) that you may have a large object lodged in such a place as may require surgical removal. Hope that was coherent enough of a response for you but in any case "ta ta".


Hey that's fine at least you can say something without turning it into a battle. I respect that. Admittedly not savvy enough to link anything so that's out but I can continue to be a punching bag...a role I am accustomed to!


Auto spelling ruins me. Your name comes off as incoherent rambling too though so what is your excuse?

Idk, there was an ugly competitive narrowly focused mind set I observed in WoW

Hama, are you a world of warcraft veteran?


Rynjin, you should have waited just a moment longer...ok. so the entire forum is overrun with people that either condone power gaming or consider themselves court justices with the power to generalize by saying generalizing is always badwrong? This is a about opinion and venting based on my collective observations over time. I'm not offering specifics and why should I? If you don't agree because I'm generalizing find a better thread that doesn't? If you're offering hostility because you're a power gamer secretly or otherwise, that enforces that power gaming is indeed spreading.


Did I specifically say here? If you check my post count its currently in the 900s so over the course of that...or were you only selectively reading my posts Hama?


So in other words I'm a moderate power level guy who likes to allow all 21 classes and play/ run games from 1-18 or even 20th. Just like to stay within the printed paizo rules and keep the point buy down to 20, and cautious about races. This "moderate" attitude doesn't fit well in a land of extreme grognardia and powergaming with ppl alternately accusing me of both!


Idk, there was an ugly competitive narrowly focused mind set I observed in WoW for the short couple months I played and it seems To be insidiously permeating tabetop rpgs.. such as dnd/pf. I like playing characters that are Slightly high powered...by an adventure path Designers expectations.


Not sure I have to "back up" my opinions manimal, either someone can relate or they can't it's a venting/discussion thread and not a legal proceeding.


The amount of venom I'm reading even in this remote corner tells me that powergaming is not only dominant but many are in denial about the symptoms. I don't consider myself a grognard , not quite old enough but my first play experiences with dnd when I was a lad of 7 in 1987 were dm'd by a budding true first generation grognard. So while I remember 3d6 in order it wasn't a primary method in my gaming career. I feel tragically caught between younger and older generation gamers, power gamers and grognards although the former more often piss me off .


Oh more forgot the poor clerics in all that drunken debauchery but yes...a party of wrathful God hammers and evangelists might extol AT LENGTH the error of the witches ways whilst exorcising/evangelizing/hammer dropping/ burning of heretics at stakes.


Couldn't most classes if you made an entire party of them be devastating? 5 spring t mind that would ruin witches oh more as I type...inquisitor party, pally party , wizard party oracle party , druid party, sorcerer party, master summoner > cough< > cringe< party. In short it ain't putting but a gangster party and a witches cover are but favors to be passed around at said gathering.


Has anyone gotten the feeling it's ok to call out grognards for being old grognards but young power gamer being idiots are an untouchable subject? I don't know , just here to vent. These boards seem one sided with devs clearly defending power gamers... is this due to profits? Power gamers spend more so they get more freedom to be rude and not have folks answer in kind? Feels like fascism on the board's sometimes with the post removal too it's like" removed post for being uh..subversive..uh I mean let's not criticize powergamers."


Those abilities aren't unlimited use. Usually it's 3+ stat mod times per day.


I see it like this is: wiz> sorc> clr> or> drd> ms> witch...so no. I don't think witch is broken. Weak yes. No niche? Yes. Broken overpowered HA!


Am trying to help. How new is your .gm? If he is that easily manipulated you shouldn't actually need any help breaking the game. You guys will do it all on your own just with what you have so far . Good day sir.


And shouldn't with enlarge person but mileage may vary as they say.

Were it not for your tiny CHA score, I would have suggested a two level dip as a metal mystery Oracle to gain the ability to cast Lead Blades and increase your weapon size yet another step.

can only have one effect that increases size... oh god this is the corner case twist the rules deliberately misinterpreted wording and take stuff out of context area of expertise. So yeah size increasing "antics" might fly since lead blades doesn't "actually"increase weapon size. Won't stack with impact though.


See the problem with power gaming is you gotta ALWAYS "keep up with the Jones' "or you aren't doing it.


> scratches head< so damage isn't number one? Going two handed fighter for a while nets more damage in the long run.BEFORE ADDING FEATS.


Cleaves junk read it carefully. Is the .gm really going to have a lot of books stand shoulder to shoulder?
