So I've got a group meeting tomorrow, low level- the highest is a level 2 paladin who earned herself an experience bonus. The other two include an archery-based ranger1, and a cleric1 of protection and community.
I'm planning to put them up against a third level NPC using a class from the playtest materials, and I want you guys to pick which one! I'll post up the results afterwards. It won't be pure combat- I might add a chase scene, maybe toss in some suggested situations.
Arcanist is a no, waiting on the revision; but 'll check back here in a few hours to see which of the others is most wanted in such a test.
And you can expect to see the results come Saturday evening >:D
(( If this works, you can expect more Pick the Playtests to come~ ))
I think Bloodrager or The Warpriest would both be good for Solos
A hunter might be an interesting villain.
Welp, not much excitement on this. Ah well, Warpriest it is!
Dunno if you had a location in mind for the encounter, but anywhere smoky or hazy (say, a burning building) could be interesting for a Shaman with the Flames spirit and Gaze of Flames hex. Have him summon monsters right in front of the paladin while staying safely hidden behind the cover of smoke.
