Heads up all... I am going to Gamex this weekend... we leave early in the morning and not sure when/if I'll be able to check in before Monday night... If I can post, it will be limited in time with brief posts... Please feel free to bot me if I'm holding things up... thanks...
Have a blast. Sorry for the delay everyone. Brother was in a pretty bad dirtbike accident so I've been researching orthopedic surgeons for him. Also had family in town.
Sorry guys, bro took a turn for the worse and is back in the ER with a potential infection. It should be ok but I'll be back on tomorrow or thursday at the latest. Apologies again for the delay but I haven't forgotten you all.
Bro is better. Not sepsis like we thought which is a huge relief.
Thanks man. Yeah it was worrisome for a while but just turned out to be a massive bruise where the blood was traveling down his leg and stuff.
If no one wants the gloves of swim/climb or the helm of languages, Rajah will probably take them. :)
Let me know.
It looks like the only one the armor is good for is Rain. It gives her a +2 more to her AC but it would hit a few skills with its -2 check penalty.
I'll be back to posting mid week ... My apologies for my extended absence and my thanks for your understanding.
Hey guys, sorry for delay, I have been having trouble accessing my account on here. Finally got it back working. Not sure what happened but pretty sure it was my fault somehow lol.
Man I haven't been able to access Paizo for like a couple days now. All day yesterday/Sunday and Saturday night. No idea what the heck was going on with this site.
Maybe it was my computer, I don't know. Although, I could access other websites just not this one.
I checked the Facebook page - they said they were updating the site, and this would explain some issues people were having logging in. Hopefully it's finally fixed!
There were issues not related to the update from what I understand - people could only access via phone on 3or 4g (not on wifi)... and this kept happening at night when they were closed, so no one there to fix the issue til the next day... they did an update today, which hopefully will prevent another recurrence. Let's hope they got it fixed finally!
Yeah I read that in another thread how your phone could get through but not desktop/laptop.
I googled paizo and was able to get to the messageboards and see new posts. I was saying to myself: "How in the heck are they posting? I can't go anywhere on this site." And then when the boards finally came back, I read that phones could get through. Trips me out. I don't really get how all that works but it does obviously.
Cool! Level up time.
I can't remember... do we roll for hp or take 1/2 plus 1?
well, just in case, here's my roll:
Jiro, I've always rolled but I think last time Immortal said people could take average plus 1 if they wanted instead.
thanks Rain... I'll keep the roll I guess.. it's better than 1/2 plus 1...
No worries and makes sense. :)
I'm thinking of taking another level in Ranger (Freebooter). This gives Rain a favoured enemy. I'm open to suggestions as to what I should choose. Thanks!
******
+1 CON mod=6
Took another level of rogue
+1d6 sneak damage
+1 bab
boatload of skill points, lol (9)
+8 hp (includes +2 for con, +1 FC)
feat: greater dirty trick
I think that's about it... let me know if you think of something better I could do for a feat... willing to consider changes of course.
also thinking about going swashbuckler in future levels... might be fun.
So I'm going to be getting Augment summoning as a bonus feat next level, but i already have it...
can i retrain it when we go up to 10th, whenever that happens?
Well, at this point I think I'll probably pick up some levels of either Inquisitor, Druid, or maybe Cavalier or Samurai - or maybe some other thing...
Kidding, I'm just going with Bard :)
Okay - here's to good fortune!
Horatio's HP -
I don't think we actually roll for hp's. All Rajah's hp's are half+1 is why I say that.(Of course, if it's optional like Rain mentioned above then that's probably why I took half+1) :P
@Variel: I never consider teamwork feats mainly because I just don't like them. BUT, having said that, I do like Outflank feat. It's pretty much the only one I do like.
I'd definitely consider that one, well, as long as you or someone else does. I'm trying to figure out a feat for Rajah and nothing really sticks out at the moment. Gonna have to go through them again.
Gonna be the weekend before I can get him updated. The work week has been a beat down for me.
Hey guys, so I'm thinking of possible feats for Horatio but I have no idea.
I'm considering Rapid Shot - but I'm not sure. Does anyone have any other suggestions?
Still no word on the Feat, but for now I'm leaning to Rapid Shot - possibly "Lunge" - but for now I think I'll leave melee to you guys.
Also, I forgot to level Amen-set:
Couple questions:
1. Is crafting allowed and/or is there time for it?
2. Should one of us take some type of craft feat if crafting is allowed?
And as far as marching order goes that's fine with me.

I have craft arms as armor.
Dhaavan has mythic crafting which allows all forms of the craft items I believe. As for how much time we have to craft ahead of us that is unknown. We have to clear the island within a 3 month window if I remember correctly. If it only takes us 1 month and the wedding takes 2 weeks then we will have 6 weeks of crafting ahead of us.
I for one am waiting for dhaavan to upgrade my headband of int to a +4 [percpetion]
Horatio, rapid shot is as good as any if reloading is a free action.
Javell, thanks for the answer on teamwork feats. Will forgo them right now. Looking at alertness to boost sense motive and perception. Once headband is upgraded I will have both sense motive and perception maxed at 10th level to get the bonus from the feat.
Rajah - The GM created a special set of House Rules for Crafting mundane gear much faster; the rest of the gear (magical sorts) use the standard rules, so crafting things such as buildings/docks/defenses should be easier and less time consuming then before, but Magical Gear still takes the same time (though generally it's only a few days for even epic stuff).
Typically we'll buy Crafting supplies at each port (both for magical and mundane gear), this way, if we need/want a specific item which we cannot find, we end up making it ourselves.
At this point the main thing Horatio does for Crafting is mundane stuff - he is able to create alchemical weapons/poisons and ammo for firearms for both hand-held and siege weapons.
I myself am waiting for a boost to Charisma via an item from Dhaavan as well. However, those generally only take a few days "in-game" to make, so if we have some downtime coming up, we may be able to get our stuff boosted - but a back-up Crafting feat for Wondrous items wouldn't hurt.
Variel - I can fire multiple shots with both the revolver and the pepperbox, but I need at least one hand free to do that - still; I will take your advice and go with it :)
That said - have you looked into Lunge? It may be a good idea to have, especially combined with things like Step-Up - and especially when fighting in duels/one-on-one combats....

Cool. Sounds good. Alertness is always a handy feat. I love feats that are handy.
I know I've probably asked this, but, does Rajah actually have any money? A part of me for some reason wants to say he's got 4,000g maybe? I'm sorry, I just can't remember.
Got it! I remember now! Man o man it just hit me. Horatio lent him the cash. Okay, I'm good now. I gotta remember that so I can pay him back. Man I don't want to forget that, because I will you know. :P
So,
HP= 6 + 1FC = 7
8 Skill pts:
+2 Prof Sailor, +1 Stealth, +1 Survival, +1 Perception, +1 Fly, +1 Spellcraft, +1 Know. Dungeoneering
+1 bab
+1 1st level spell/day
Feat: Vital Strike
Freebooter's Bane : Now is +2 bonus on weapon attack and damage against selected target.
I still need to look at levelling Neko.

Awesome on the Freebooter's Bane!
And for what it's worth, Amen-set can still Craft Neko a Pirate Hat if you'd like ;)
Neko is now updated, too.
And sure, why not have Amen-set craft Neko a jaunty tricorne. ;)

Outstanding, Neko!
That said, what option do you like best?
Pic of Neko with jewels and stuff -
Pic of Neko with a pirate wrap, but no actual hat -
Or my favorite pic, because it's just so cute –
Once I know your choice, I’ll get to work on it right away :)
Neko has also picked up some new spells:
1 Orison: Disrupt Undead
1 1st Level: Levitate
1 2nd Level: Floating Disk
2 3rd Level: Battering Blast & Force Anchor
----------------
And why not, let's go with Pic Three for Neko's head wear. ;)

Yay :D
Yes. It's +2 better to your AC. Only drawback is there's a -2 AC penalty hit to it.
@Variel: Nope, don't mind at all.
Thanks for answering, Javell. I'll have a think on it. :)
I don't have an issue with you taking that potion, Variel.

Rain I think the armor is an upgrade for you
+1 mithral chain shirt is 5 armor with max dex of +6 and no armor penalty.
Elven Chain is 6 armor with a max dex of +4 and -2 to armor check penalty. Give Variel a day and 500gp and it will be 7 armor.
Both are light armors so that is no problem as well. The question is do you want the extra 2 armor for 2 armor check penalty.
Loot list updated as well.
Actually, it is already a 7 armor due to the +1. BUT, you could make it a +2 with a mere 1,500g and a day. :)
Yeah I'd have to think on it too if I was contemplating taking it. That -2 penalty is just a bit on the annoying side. -1 would be less of an issue but man once it gets higher than that, it just makes the decision a bit tougher.
Variel - if Alertness was a difficult choice... and you really want more diplomacy - instead think maybe about the extra traits feat and take
