Well, I'm not surprised, given that you're only halfway through the Intermediate course. That isn't covered until Module 8.1.2d

Guys, it's not that complicated; see, there's this awesome two-feat combo that they- whaddaya mean they nerfed it?! Sigh.

Wait, what?

EDIT: So, gran, you embarrassed by an editing mistake?

EDIT 2: Tough. Blame yourself or yourself.

EDIT 3: I’m not blaming God, and I’m definitely not recommending anyone else do so. I mean, have you read the Hebraic Bible/Old Testament?

EDIT 4: Yes, I went a long way to get to that joke. Dedication. Commitment. These are the principles of a married ninja-assassin.

I played an oracle years ago and in his backstory he explained that the curses are the result of a mortal being touched by a god. The mortal body is not capable of ensuring such a touch without some sort of detriment as you are infused with raw divine power.

Fixt Fixed that four you.

EDIT one: guess you could say, "fixed"

EDIT two: let's see if I can get these to appear in the correct order

EDIT three: NOPE! also to revert this to an alias

EDIT four: tradition by this point; also, to point out that this post was made after my Tacticslion post, that currently claims to be 2 minutes ago, while this claims to be 3 minutes ago.

I, uh... I think that's illegal in most continental United States.

Not to be That Guy, but wouldn't he have had to have said "I want to f~$& my McRib after that"

Unless you're implying the McRib has somehow gained sentience and has a propensity for f~@~ing.

Language is interesting, especially when you use cunning tricks to make multiple points.

*cough*

But, uh, in this case, there are several possible interpretations.

1) The non-standard use of language was what you seemed to imply that I was saying. That is, he used a passive voice to suggest his desire for <CARNAL RELATIONS>* with the McRib. This was not my intent, but fair enough. It also isn't wrong, despite being non-standard.

2) The standard use of language that implies the McRib has a desire and actively opts towards <CARNAL RELATIONS>*. This was one of two possible things I was trying to imply.

3) The standard use of language that implies that the McRib being discussed is a device for the purpose of <CARNAL RELATIONS>*.

There may be other interpretations, but... language amirite?

* Please feel free to replace "<CARNAL RELATIONS>" with whatever it is you think Freehold's uncensored word to be; I am using the two as synonyms for the purpose of this conversation. Also, I am easily amused, and the "CARNAL"/"CARNIVOROUS" connection is one in a long line of things that amuses me.

EDIT 1: Mostly just for the habit/consistency at this point.

EDIT 2: John's creativity with interpretation below has created an interesting hypothetical link: (Fudge + McRib).

EDIT 3: I don't know, I'm mostly just counting down to four.

EDIT 4: Huh - this editing thing is taking its sweet, sweet time, today.

Pedantry: I think "plural" is by definition "graboids" as you say, Ross, but perhaps substituting the word "plural" in your post to make it a "multiplicity of" or "collection of" or "group of" might be better.

To wit:

ORIGINAL

Would the plural be a tremor of graboids?

EXTRA CRISPY*

Would the (word for a) plural group noun** of [graboids] be a "tremor" of graboids?

Man, I hope I got that right, otherwise, I'm going to look quite silly... well, sillier...

They start talking about Unchained about 14 minutes 25 seconds in. They mention lots of things that sound really cool. A lot of the Barbarian stuff sounds like minor buffs to the class in making it simpler to play. Monk is full BAB, and has a suite of abilities to choose from. One of my friends said "oh, so like quingong being standard for monks?" and I think it's probably a little more complicated/simple than that, but whatever.

It's not even a bad thing, per se.

But something that makes me scrunch my face...

... is "to hit" when people say [it]*.

* Okay, the rhyme sucks.

.

.

.

.

I Just want to say about the magic items that I agree with the Belt/Headband,and possibly the ring/amulet.

Most martial classes I play usually take those, but if I'm playing a spell caster I don't take the ring/amulet of prot/nat armor, I usually take something to boost spells and what not. However, in regards to the cloak, I can honestly say I have never bought a cloak of resistance. If it was given to me by looting it then, ya, I would wear it because, hey, awesome bonus to saves, but I would rather spend my money on a Cloak of Batwings, or Cloak of Displacement.

Reason being, is that I like the effects of spells, Saves are a natural part of the game, and lets be honest... how often does one fail on a save or die spell.

[In] the current game we are playing, another person and I are Gm'ing every other book.

He got bored with his current character and decided to bring in a new one; in the first encounter of the session I attacked him with Phantasmal Killer and he died.

Was he shocked? Yes.

Did he beg and plead me to return his character to life or negate the effect? No.

Why? Because he knows that's how it goes.

In fact he probably found more fun in the fact that, [with] his character was sent by Nethys to rescue Baba Yaga, [he'd been] claiming [that] he was awesome and far superior to the rest of the PC's; thus when he died he found the hilarious irony in what had happened.

What level were they? 13 and by that level that was actually the second PC to die by a save or die spell.

Who was the first? My character when we met an Ice frost worm (you know those things that explode when they die doing 100 damage if you fail the save, more than likely killing an 11th level PC who had been fighting it).

Yes he did die because of the save or suck ability the frost worm had; wanna know why he was so close to it? Because the spell caster failed her knowledge roll and didn't know they exploded.

With proper information I'm sure my character would of been like "Ummmm, ya, no, I'm not getting anywhere near that thing."

Same thing goes for other such abilities like the Ghouls in your example.

It seems to me people just want to do the damage and kill everything as quickly as possible instead of playing smart.

If your PC's had knowledge that the ghouls could paralyze them with their attacks then your PC's could have played it smart.

"OMG room full of Ghouls, quick funnel them through the door way."

Melee classes stand to either side of the door way having the ghouls rush past allowing AoO's, or the first ghoul stops right at them and they both attack it. The second Ghoul makes it through the door but has to step through its companion to make it to a spot it can attack, thus provoking AoO's, not to mention this round it only gets one attack. All ghouls will only get 1 attack that round, all PC's can focus on 1 ghoul until its dead, allowing the rest to focus on the next, and next round take out the one that will do a full round.... You see where I'm going with this.

By the end of the combat its unlikely that any PC will be paralyzed and if so, its probably only 1 of them for failing a save they just made 3-4 times during the encounter already.

Also on the subject of SoS and SoD spells and abilities, instead of this sucking for PC's it should make it more fun, it is more challenging when a PC goes down, he can cheer them on and say "Kill the one that got me; take revenge!"-type stuff.

Ya, they have to sit there, but make it fun for them anyway.

EDITED... this time.

EDIT 2: I mean, it's my job-description.

I've submitted this to PFSRD before ...but they don't care and quote the old post ;(

I fixed that for you.

When the PCs enter the area the necromancers address them. When they learn that the PCs have massacred their underlings and the kobolds above the necromancers offer to have the PCs join them since they have unintentionally resolved not only one issue they needed to resolve but also averted having to pay their underlings. After the PCs refuse them the gnome pulls the leaver that closes the portcullises, trapping the PCs in the room. He allows the PCs to close the gap before ending the illusion spell and triggering the skeletons to act whose first action is full round running towards the nearest PC if said PC is not within charging distance and there is no one in the way.

Personally, I'm uncertain of several things here.

1) Why do the PCs converse with the necromancers?
2) Is it for the distraction?
3) Because I'd totally have flipped out and killed them.

EDIT: Look, I'm a an murder-hobo assassin. It's what I do.
EDIT 2: Well, that and edit things.
EDIT 3: I mean, a guy's gotta make a living.

No, but seriously, this smells so much like, "here's how the PCs will totes disrupt this plan" that I can't even come up with a simile or other good comparison.
