Blackest Scale

I recommend Erd to have some other option in combat beyond charging.

Don't I?

I'm missing something? besides full attacking (wich is not particularly good) I see none.

Well . . . I'm not a veteran theory-crafter like the rest of you, but she's also invested in archery and has Spring Attack. And she's got wild coercion/Intimidate, challenge, Combat Reflexes, and full attack.

I know they're not GOOD options but honestly I'm content with the sidelines for most of the time. Going into character creation I only had two goals: a) somehow make charge work and b) finally play a hack-and-slash brute. I've succeeded at those goals and it doesn't bother me that everyone else has better/more options.

That said, if you've got more suggestions for next level I'd be glad to hear 'em. :)

Quick advice: Maybe utilize your archery more often? Since you say you've invested in it.

Sorta run around on your horse and plink dudes with arrows until there's a clear Charge rage, then light 'em up. Sorta like a Switch Hitter on horse 'roids. Overrun doesn't seem to be working too well for you.

Charge + Bash is fun but very easily ends with "And here lies Erd, he partied too hard."

Grab Cornugon Smash and Hurtful! Those are awesome!

Erd charge can be quite devastatig, but it seems to be rather easy to shut down, specially by AoE like slow. I suggest aht ERd have a plan B for when that heppens, or to invest more in BIli's defenses.

...I kind of forgot what we were doing here...

By the way people, I'm using stuffs from 2e and 3.5 for hte descriptions and certain rules (like the choose the direction of the gravity), I'm not finding much in the pfsrd about the planes.

No problem

BTW... I updated my Rogue homebrew... I added a scaling bonus to attack rolls (1 + 1/5 Rogue Level) and a few more revised Rogue Talents. It's based mostly on the feedback I got from my character in RotRL and my friend's character at a different game.

The scaling bonus to attack rolls was originally going to apply only to light weapons and shortbows... The I remembered that many cool weapons are very iconic to Rogues but are not light (e.g.rapier) or shortbows (e.g.:throwing knives)... So I added one-handed weapons and ranged weapons as well... But I didn't want to exclude characters who wielded 2-handed weapons (like orc Rogues with falchions).

I was going to change it so the bonus only applied to ranged weapons if the Rogue had Precise Shot and to 2-handed weapons if she had Power Attack... But considering those feats are basically obligatory anyway, it felt rather pointless IMo, so I just made it an universal bonus. ><'

I don't know when I'll be able to post again so... Happy Holidays and Happy New Year to everyone!

By chance, I found what I was looking for:

You know, I actually thought there was a rule on that (if you hit a creature with DR you can tell your damage was reduced) but i can't find it.

"Wounds heal immediately, or the weapon bounces off harmlessly (in either case, the opponent knows the attack was ineffective)."

Gottcha.

I'm sick, I would post when my joint are not killing me.

Aw. Get better man, sounds kinda like the flu.

Yeah, good luck with it, Nicos.

I have more time now, and I've been thinking about casting some true resurrection here, although Gark leaving would be a sad thing.

I would enjoy this. Though you're lucky I was browsing the actual Discussion thing looking for something else, or I never would have seen it.

I thought I would appear again in the campaign tabs.

It has, now.

Well, lets see what the others say.

They may not have seen it.

'Ello. I'm interested.

Yeah, if the last two weeks have been anything to judge by, I'm not going to have enough time to post daily in any more games. Especially with the complications of high-level play D:

Maybe in (Northern Hemisphere) summer, though!

I'm in.

I don't think It need to be daily, perhaps once every two days?, but If you can't that is understandable.

Huh... BS is still not showing up in my list of active campaingns...

I have no idea how that works.

Anyways, This part of the astral plane I will run it as planed, but then I will change to a more sandbox style where where you go is your choice. Everyone agree?

Sounds good.

Ok, I will try to post later today.

Eh, miscalculation on my part. The post will have to wait to tuesday.

Posting here for everyone's benefit since the new gameplay post didn't show up for me.

Lemmy?

I keep forgetting to post here because its still not in my campaign tab. :P

You should try asking in the website feedback forum.

Post completed for sun

Look at that! BS finally decided to show up in my campaign tab!

Nicos said he fled into the head of the giant baby, which is where we are now.

Yes.

To recapitulate, Ammas was in the Imaskari city looking for a portal, the portal leave you near where you are, you can assume he is here looking for you already know what. (the connexion is not clear I admit)

Huh... I was under impression that Ammon had fled off-world... And we were here because the iskari were after us.

Oh, well... C'est la vie.

You are confusing the Imaskari (the ancient civilization that used the words of creation to defy the gods), with the Githianky (the ones that live in the Astral plane)

Potato, potahto... ^^

rest assured, it is not time travel, it is time rearrange ^^
