Interest Check: Gestalt Hell's Vengeance Game on Roll20


Recruitment

Dark Archive

I am checking to see if people would be interested in a Gestalt Hell's Vengeance Game on Roll20.net.

This is what I am thinking for the Character Creation Guidlines:
All characters will be Evil with a push for all being LE.Characters will be built using 20 point buy method. All characters will be Gestalt, with one of those classes being a spell caster(Full, 6th, or 4th level casters). 3rd party material is allowed if I have the same material (ask and I will see if I have it.) Everyone will have a trait from the Hell's Vengeance Players' Guide and two other traits. One extra feat at first level. Everyone gets a starting ranged weapon, a melee weapon, armor(shield too if applicable), one class kit from Ultimate Equipment, one wand of Infernal Healing(50 Charges), and 666 gold.

Will be waiting till at least when the Path of the Hellknight campaign setting pdf comes out to start the game.


Do you have an idea of a time frame in which you are looking to play?

Dark Archive

I am in Eastern US time Zone. Games would be in the Afternoon sometime. I am thinking Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday for the game day.


Is this voice or text?

Dark Archive

Roll20.net It is a Virtual Tabletop. Check out the videos on the site to learn more. Voice and text are supported.


I have an account, I'm more asking which of the two you intend to play with.

Dark Archive

Either works for me. Do you prefer one over the other? I usually see them both used in games I have been part of.


Most people prefer voice but that's not something I can do. I'm limited only to text.

Dark Archive

Can you hear any of the voice chat?


I could, but I think text would respond slowly. I'd also only be available tuesdays.

Dark Archive

As long as you could hear the other party members and could respond by text in a decent amount of time, I wouldn't have a problem with you using text only. Day, time, and party composition hasn't been decided yet. That will depend on the people interested, their available time, and preferred/available days.


Tuesday would also be viable for me depending on the time frame of what you count as afternoon. I would also actually prefer text. I've found that really while text is slower, it gives a better immersion, and also keeps everyone on topic better. (Also, text provides a basis where talking over each other doesn't happen). I'd prefer Tuesday...possibly Thursday.


This sounds pretty interesting actually. Would you be willing to count one class as non-casting if an Archetype is chosen that removes the casting (Like Skirmisher for Ranger)?

I could probably do Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday afternoon, but I'm Pacific time so that might mean later that you think of as "Afternoon".


What time in the afternoon. Just want to see if i will be able to join in.

According to web im 6hrs ahead


If i do join:
What is your view or how would you handle it if i wanted to do TWF with pistols?

Thinking
Gunslinger/ranger/fieldmarshal


One more question regarding firearms:

Advanced or early firearms?


I'm potentially interested, depending on the day and time.

I'm considering a Thrune-related Tyrant/Dread Vanguard antipaladin gestalt with Oracle...probably Oracle of Battle.

Scarab Sages

Tagging into this, Wizard/Investigator i think


PotHK is out FYI =^^=

Will be interesting if we all PrC into HK :P


What kind of optimization level are you looking for? With gestalt I'd assume relatively high...I'm debating whether or not to take Dual-Cursed.

Scarab Sages

I am most likely going hellknight signifier, though I might change to cleric if no one wants to go that route....

Actaully can you Dual class Prestige classes?
Fighter/Cleric could do both if thats the case lol

Darth Signas-aka Baron Dark Mask is a signifier I have in Society and hes amazingly fun

Unexpected events have pushed the start of this back. I'm not sure at the moment which day will work better. Most likely the start time will be pushed back to 6pm or later Eastern US time zone.

Firearms will be early firearms and I am thinking about handling them like PFS does.

Optimized enough that you can be effective at your class combos. Backstory isn't important yet. I'm looking to see if I can put a decent party together from the character ideas submitted so far.

I think dual classing the Prestige classes would probably be fine as long as you met all the requirements. Do you have an idea of how you would build it?

Character concepts would be fine at this point. Not quite ready to get started just yet.

I'm thinking anti-paladin/rogue. It could be fun to have an exemplar of evil who doesn't walk around in black full plate all the time.

Scarab Sages

Cleric/Fighter 5/5 ranks in intimidate 5, and Knowledge Planes 5, Spell Craft 5
Warrior Priest feat....Done....

Cleric of the Godclaw, Domains: Tactics Inquisition, Glory Domain. Pick up

Travel Domain from Hell Knight Commander,
Pentamic Faith (Ex; Order of the God Claw only): This ability allows the Hell knight to select one of the following domains: Artifice, Glory, Knowledge, Law, Magic, Nobility, Protection, Rune, Strength, Travel , and War. The Hell knight gains all of the granted powers (but not domain spells) of that domain, treating his Hell knight levels as Cleric levels to determine what domain abilities he has access to.

Fighter would be an Armor master, give him better armor.

He would be tanky, have all the hellknight goodies, and full cleric goods to boot

I would suggest you use this Archetype for the Anti-Paladin. TYRANT

Looks interesting.


Sounds fascinating, too bad it isn't PBP. I don't think my schedule is consistent enough to be sure I'd be available for games.


Okay. I was thinking of a Dual-Cursed Life Oracle/Mesmerist, focusing on Healing/Support and Debuff Casting. Basically making sure all the other jokers in the party don't get themselves killed/stunned/frightened/whatever else. Also party face/Charm person dispenser as necessary.

That could work. Maybe take the Local Tough trait and flavor it as an up and coming mob boss who happens to be a devout follower of Asmodean.


interested


I may be interested in bringing an Inquisitor/Cavalier to the party, prestige into Inquisitor/Hellknight.

Path of the Hellknight is out, so heres a question, When are you thinking of starting?

1 person marked this as a favorite.

Some RL issues have come up. I probably won't have a chance to get this going on Roll20 til after GenCon.


Only for me to join a R20 and at "6pm" if this happens on a friday or a saturday. Since it means it will be round midnight where i live =^^=

Will you allow race builder?

I'm pretty sure that wouldn't work in Cheliax. They aren't the most open-minded culture. Something that would fit in the setting may be allowed, maybe, but that idea doesn't make sense for the setting and/or campaign.

Sovereign Court

Very interesting. If Tuesday is still the day, it works well for me. I'm thinking Aldori swordlord/ antipaladin (tyrant). I notice the starting gear is and gold is high, is that because we start at higher than 1st level , or are we starting at 1st level?
