If you want to dual-wield the same weapon, keep the minimal -2/-2 to attack, and have a high crit range, dual wield kukris. They only average 1 less point of damage than rapiers (2 less on a crit).

If your enemies are smart, a really high AC may mean to them (once they figure it out): "Don't even try to hit him!"

Layers of defense work better than just high AC: miss chance, damage reduction, and temp hp. Fortification is also good to have for crits.

Neither you nor the tower shield takes up the whole 5' x 5' square. You can easily move within the square to attack around the shield, while hiding behind it when attacked. Also, attacks going past you can go around the shield (and you who are hiding behind it)

"Language!"

and, of course, the big musical number for the supporting cast: "America's Ass"

There are those stories that start towards the very end, seemingly a lost cause for the protagonist, then . . .

"You might be wondering how I got here. Well..."

Then, it goes back and tells the story up to that point, where it turns out the cause wasn't lost, as you, the viewer doesn't have all the information.

(The "Trash" episode of Firefly was similar)

I think it is more pro-underdog (big strong beings are rarely underdogs, except against bigger, stronger beings), and nerds do highly value Intelligence, while valuing Charisma lower.

(I do tend to play characters who grow giant and RAWR SMASH, but I still am hesitant to have a low Int)

Seems the subtitle for this might be: "Clint has had enough of this @#$%"

Well, if they feature monsters not in core, they may just have a supplement tied into the movie that contains them.

I was raised more that zombies are "Turn Undead" fodder for the cleric than a serious horror threat. So, never got into the zombie thing.

Path of War Stalker is a Wis-based class, with a ninja-esque theme and 6+Int Skill points. It also has a martial discipline, called Steel Serpent, that involves corrupting enemies ki and acts like poisons. (It also adds Wis Mod to Reflex saves and Initiative, in addition to Dex Mod)

There are a number of abilities that'll use your Power Points, so a more martial pairing will help do damage while keeping power points in reserve for healing/Vitalist abilities.

Those levels are the minimum requirements to take it. You have to be at least 5th level to get it the second time, for example. You can also retrain feats (optional rule, so at GM discretion).

I do not think RAW take into account shared burden between teleportees. So, GM's discretion imo.

Well, beholders are sort of the trademark D&D-copyrighted monster, so I'd suspect one of those (or more if we get some Zhents involved)

Mind Flayers might be a bit much for the first movie, though...

A Black's Acid... kinda resembles swamp unfiltered water ^^;

A Green's Acid... is more of a poisonous gas, and forests and jungles have their share of venomous plants.

Blue either bury themselves in sand to hide... or fly high up. Since their scales match the color of the sky (usually clear), they can hunt easily. Then again, wastelands tend to somehow attract more thunderstorms, hence a Blue's lightning being close to that idea :P

This. The elemental type and breath weapon may be inconsistent with each other, but ARE consistent with the dragon types themselves and their typical environments.

Is the Vampire/Lycanthrope rivalry in base Pathfinder at all? It can be added to particular settings, but, then again, other settings could have them as allies (well, those of similar alignment, at least)

Paladin/Antipaladin DR… I’ve always believed their DR was backwards… why should a Paladin who trains their whole life to fight evil be resistant to attacks from everything that isn’t Evil? And vise-versa for Antipaladins…

Evil/Unholy attacks are specifically designed to hurt servants of good and would be pretty sorry if they were weak against champions of good. Similar with Good/Holy vs evil.

Also, someone in the movie says Jeff Gordon has the most Nascar wins. But Richard Petty has the most Nascar wins at 200. Jeff Gordon has 93 wins.

Do the writers know how to look things up on the internet? I used to be a big Nascar fan and wrong things like that get me worked up.

I've heard writers intentionally stick in wrong stuff to try and sneak past the editors and consultants, which is where most of the ridiculously bad computer stuff comes from in movies and TV.

There is no specific rule on discharging a held touch spell on oneself. This means it defaults to the more general rule on discharging a held touch spell, namely as a Standard Action.

What happened to Richard Jewell or the West Memphis Three comes to mind...

While not super-villains, there are various criminal elements (like Scorpion's crew) out to get him, as well as law enforcement, tabloid press, and a general populace (manipulated by both Mysterio and the aforementioned press) arrayed against him and those close to him.

Whatever Fnord is, it survived being tossed into Mount Doom.

Angels and Daemons - The Vatican is attacked by a computer virus

Avengers: Age of Ultros - A talking (and pervy) octopus attacks, and only the Avengers can stop him

Also, there is a backlog of movies that were to come out last year or early this year that needs to be cleared (along with movies slated for nowish being pushed back because of the backlog) . . . It'll take some time to catch up.

A few things I noticed or thought from the trailer:

2) While sure, Dr. Strange is more than capable of screwing things up on his own, the fact that he seems to so blithely take Peter's request, when he should know better (right after Infinity War/Endgame) made me wonder: what if it isn't Dr Strange at all? Doesn't Mephisto have a history in Spiderman of changing the past in ways which aren't really too good for Peter? With the hints dropped in Wandavision that Mephisto might have been involved (which seemingly turned out to not be true), the idea of Mephisto being involved in MCU might be planted already, and with the post credit scene in Wandvision suggesting something (possibly Mephisto, who knows) is involved with the spirits of her not yet existing children from the show, and Wanda showing up in the next Dr Strange movie,which is the one right after Spiderman, then connecting all 3 with Mephisto doesn't seem completely bonkers of an idea. It also wouldn't be the first time a Spiderman MCU movie had an ally turn out to be someone else entirely in disguise.

OOOH! I just realized that in one of the scenes with Peter being surrounded by a mob of angry protestors about him, there's one holding a sign which says "devil in disguise" and peter's picture with classic devil horns and mustache! Could be a "bad wolf" like clue that there actually IS a devil in disguise in the movie!

Well, if Matt Murdock is in the movie, then there IS a devil in disguise . . .

And it is autographed! The problem is that the poster on the poster is GoatToucher, so the auction market is . . . limited.

The next poster has the scoop about the previous two posters and publishing it in the Post, but will post a teaser....

Aye, Nessie's a big lass. She got really big underwear.

The next poster is a real giant-monster-undergarment entrepreneur.

Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude, think you misread that spell. Turned into a stoner. Way out, man!

The next poster, like, is totally into, like, stoner culture.

It's more of a purple.

The next poster is purple with [REDACTED]

I usually just go with the +1 Skill Point, unless the racial one is really good and applicable to my archetype/build (and I'd be single-classing enough to make it worthwhile)

Probably not, but you'll do it anyway.

The next poster will assist.

Well, you could play off a saying of the other big fantasy 5-headed dragon goddess, Takhisis: "Mercy is weakness, and weakness is death."

I normally play big characters who grow even bigger, but occasionally play, say, a halfling that dual-wields small kukris with Dex-to-damage (and Cha-to-damage if able)is a fun little Cuisinart to play.

10 ft horizontally, plus 5 ft vertically, should be calculated the exact same way as 10 ft East, plus 5 ft North. One diagonal square (1.5 rounded down), plus one regular square. So, 2 squares, or 10 ft . . . within reach.

Looks like Strange is going to be the audience's "in" to this...

KahnyaGnorc SMASH!

Next poster could help Goth Guru, but in an unconventional way...

The Fighter should have gotten a HUGE rework, so that most archetypes would replace the bonus feats instead of the Weapon/Armor Training.

A properly designed Fighter class wouldn't even have a bonus feat class feature, or at least not as the main class feature.

Bonus Feats replaced with a selectable list of abilities, like so many other classes have, one selection could be one that allows a choice of a Combat Feat, which could be taken multiple times (thus could behave like the normal Bonus Feats feature).

Alternatively, a list of Combat Feats that could only be taken by fighters could allow for the same end result.

A "Gadgeteer" class that focuses on inventions/gadgets, guns, crossbows, bombs(alchemist), traps, tools, etc.

Well, MCU's Shang-Chi's dad can't be Fu Manchu, for many, many reasons, so the real Mandarin makes sense. Daddy would still be a big bad, arguably a bigger bad, in fact.

It is boring work, but pays surprisingly well.

The next poster is paying me, for reasons I do not know....

A Banite cleric or blackguard could make a really good BBEG or "Dragon" (chief henchman of the villain who is often more powerful than the actual villain)

I was thinking, with that name, that the main character would pilot a giant, mechanized Anne Hathaway.

Warlord with the Steelfist Commando archetype is great for unarmed combat. With a dip in Scaled Fist Unchained Monk (Cha to AC and few nice extras), you can build a great brawler.
