We build our own cohorts, again with the understanding that we not break the game. Trying to avoid the bard, at least the vanilla. I had a bard cohort on my character in a previous campaign.

Right now thinking a cleric of Calistra with the trickery and luck domains, unless I hit upon something better.


Bump


I am trying to decide what cohort I should build to help my lvl 7 hafling mesmerist. It should be another halfling since it is his brother. The rest of the party is a half elf magus, lizardfolk shark druid, and super special snowflake life oracle.

We try not to abuse leadership, and I just want a support character. The biggest reason I am taking it for the followers, I am building an Intel network. The campaign involves a large amount of infiltration and intreage.

Thoughts?


Disguise yourself and have portraits painted while you are disguised.


I am making a 9th level kineticist, air/air. I want to make sure that things work the way I think they do. I spend a full round action gathering power, then a move action the next turn doing the same. I then use empowered thunderstorm blast, for no burn. I use magnetic infusion, the cost of which is reduced to 0 by burn specialization. The target is 100ft away, forcing me to use extended range, which costs one burn, which I have no way to reduce. The total cost of the blast is 1 burn. Is this correct.


No, not literaly. I want an idea for a concept that seems lame and useless, but in actuality kicks ass. I don't need a full build, just a wacky concept. Something where they tell me to go talk to a fish, then I beat them to death with a shark. Metaphorically.


The fast healing shenanigans can be worth it for dipping.


Fear the Dire Cow.


Can they use them. I assume that because psychic magic is just another form of magic, that they can, the runestone not specifying arcane.


Thought so. It turns a hallway into a ginsue.


Is this as good at crowd control as I think?

Make sure you let us know how it turns out. Also, if you have the cash, try a wasp nest of swarming.


In a few weeks I am going to start running the tWotW with a four man party. Two of the characters are dhampires. Both are sorcerers, though one is thinking of switching to an Oracle. Given that all the healing items during the prison break are cure light wounds potions and it would make no sense to change any of them with inflict potions, should I change the items in the veil to give them a chance to change. I am thinking maybe a wand of infernal healing with five or ten charges.


1 no idea.

2 no shield bonuses do not apply to touch AC.


I do not know that there is a rules as written answer to this question. I would rule that using a held touch of on a friendly target is the same as a paladin's lay on hands, a standard with no attack on a friendly target, a swift on yourself.

's'alright.


My DM ran a side quest while our Paladin was going to be absent where the wizard we were working for teleported us into a drow city an couple of blocks from the library. We had to get in an find the book we were looking for without being spotted. Best thing I ever did was have my magus learn invisibility the session before.


I also want to know if the improved familiar is still a tumor and can bond and detach and all that.


Great idea. I was already thinking of taking tumor familiar next level. Touch injection and a combined extract make 8. 8 Buffs ah ah ah.


Anyone else want to weigh in? And does anyone else have a way to get more than two buffs on them in a round?


The crux of my question is this: Amazing Initiative allows a free action spending of mythic power to gain a standard action. It specifically calls out that it can not be used for the casting of a spell. Extracts however are not cast and are technically not spells. Is is legal to use the extract for drinking an extract allowing up to six extracts to be used in one round (Amazing Initiative standard action, regular standard action, Swift action with Assured Drinker and all either combined extracts or Adamixture Vialed)???


it allows medium druids to ride their rock from level 1


The mutagen grants an alchemical bonus to nature armor. Iron hide gives a +1 bonus. Improved natural armor increases the bonus by 1 each time you take it. They all stack. They also stack with the amulet of natural armor which gives an enhancement bonus.


The shield is part of the close weapon group. Which the brawler can flurry with.


You could still be small. It is an option for aasimars and tiefling. No Stat changes just small.


The half orc favored class ability adds to bomb damage, so it only adds to the damage of the alchemists bombs, not splash weapons.

You are correct on how the splash damage works. Anything that adds to the damage of the bombs, increases the splash damage.


Two very similar events that happened a couple of sessions apart. The first time we were down ourninja as the player was absent. The tthree of us who were there were riding to a village to deliver medicine to a village for the church of Erastil. We met a dying man on the road who begged us to save a differentvvillage from a monster of some sort.

Now part of the intent here was to give the parties redemer paladin of Erastil a dilemma. Not an instant fall just a something that would force him to make a choice. So the paladin makes the third choice. He declares that Erastil is devoted to hunting down monsters we go that way. Then he straps the medicine to his mount with a note and sends it on to the sick village. (the paladin makes sure that the mount maintains a higher AC than the paladin)

When we get to the village being attacked we find it ruined and dead for quite a while. The town hall is now the lair of a cloud dragon. My magus (originally TN but greedy for power had slid into NE a while ago) translates for the paladin into draconic when there is no answer to common. The dragon demands a tribute to allow us to live. In draconic which none of the rest of the party present speak, the magus offers the paladin. And keeps generally insulting the paladin throughout the translation The dragon wanted our gear, then attacked and we killed it.

A couple of sessions later there were again only three of us at the table, this time our Ranger was absent. The ninja had become a Lich session before (an artifact did it) and had been LE for quite a while (due to the same artifact). The three of us who were there were attacked by Zuishin Kami, who were really only attacking the ninja Lich and ignoring the rest of us. My magus was the only one who had any idea what they were and did not share with the party at large (I did have my cacaodeamon familiar that the paladin has only seen as a snake tell the ninja however) As he fights the ninja claims in several different languages that the paladin does not speak that he does not want to fight them and is forced to do evil by his master- the paladin. One of them even got away.

Me and the ninja are discussing how to turn the paladin.


A tiefling can get the see in darkness power by taking the feat Fiend Sight twice.


Abyssal blood Rager. Then he can grow even more.

S'alright


I just took a Cacaodeamon Improved Familiar and I have both the same question regarding the venomous snake and a related question. How would I calculate the poison DC for the venomous snakes bite? Is the the venomous snakes base DC or do I increase the DC based on the higher effective hit dice and constitution?

The reason there are no pants in Pathfinder is tradition. Everyone knows that DnD is based at least in part on The Lord of the Rings.

"Gondor has no pants, Gondor needs no pants. "

The rest of me is back on on the rack.


Yes

Yes

Yes


I agree Ned Stark is the poster child for lawful stupid. The one I disagree with is Davos Seaworth. He is one of the very small number of Characters who is lawful good. He used to be neutral good in his smuggling days but he went lawful after Stanis took his fingers. Cersie is the poster child for chaotic stupid.


I had a party that used a bag of devouring to set up a sewage system for a new settlement.


M Head Head 2 neck 2

S'alright.


M Head Head 2 neck 2

S'alright

Lonely kids. Well no more. Just get the My Necromancer doll. It's the new best friend that just keeps making more friends for you. And he can help you turn the other kids who would not play with you into friends as well.

Just waiting for King Mark to let us know if the guards are doing anything.


M Head Head 2 neck 2

That was not dirty, just tasteless.


M Head Head 2 neck 2

Guess who doubles as a bottle opener.

Fargo, Teon, and Sir Eldon's head are all updated.

Fargo would be willing to play the merchant, though Shulme might be better, not sure. Fargo is up to a 10 bluff.


M Head Head 2 neck 2

The head tumbles wildly,


M Head Head 2 neck 2

Follow and protect the nice young girl, obey her

Teon thrusts the head close enough that the crudely working jaw is in danger of nipping the end of Timeon's nose.

You were not paying attention were you, you idiot? You are just as stupid now as when you were doing a piss poor job of polishing my armor and currying my horse. Iomdea could not save me in life, and she could not save me in death. My only hope of salvation was to forswear the false goddess. Do so while you yet have a chance to live. Forswear in life, or burn after death until you do.


M Head Head 2 neck 2

Poke


M Head Head 2 neck 2

Protect the girl. Abjure Iomedae.


M Head Head 2 neck 2

You must join me. You have no idead of the power I now wield. I am Sir Eldon, devourer of noses. You my faithful squire shall be Ankle Biter. We can even make out. Come be with me forever squire. Reject these nice people and choose death.


M Head Head 2 neck 2

Hail Asmodeas, lord of people with bodies, protector of those without a stick up their bum


M Head Head 2 neck 2

Yes, I have been saved young squire. You will find deliverance if you abandon the false worship of Iomedae and forswear her forever. What say you?
