02:14:26 canine ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
02:42:55 canine has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
05:46:47 <Ballig> I know we played it
05:50:45 Roach ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
05:53:14 <Ballig> sup roach
05:53:28 <Roach> Not too much, just got back home from work, so I'm crashin
05:53:45 <Roach> I also came to the unavoidable conclusion that pointbuy, as required, gimps monks pretty badly.
05:53:55 <Roach> At most, I can get a AC of 16
05:54:19 <Roach> At the build I'd be looking at, I'd probably have around 14-16 AC at most.
05:54:29 <Roach> Pathetic for a 1st level character.
05:57:26 <Ballig> pretty decent for a first level character, really
05:57:46 <Ballig> an AC of 16, you would have to be up against something with a +6 attack to hit you more than half the time
05:57:52 <Ballig> +6 is pretty big for first level enemies
05:58:09 <Roach> Eh, keep in mind, I can't really stack armor on that to add onto it
05:58:25 <Roach> So while it might be halfway good for a first-level character, it is hard to up the AC, as it were
06:00:34 <Roach> >.>;;
06:00:46 <Roach> . . . mostly like upping the AC of a caster, now that I think about it. Ah well
06:01:04 <Roach> I'll just have to find a race that inflates dex and wisdom without penalizing strength or con :v
06:02:49 * Roach goes to look-see
06:08:31 <Roach> Hmmm
06:08:54 <Roach> Half Elf with Ancestral Arms trait looks good, give im a nine-section whip (I <3 those things, so versitile!_
06:11:50 * Roach will get to it later
06:15:40 <Ballig> weirdo
06:15:50 <Roach> What? :p
06:16:20 <Ballig> human gives +2 to any stat!
06:16:36 <Roach> Its monk, so it is flurryable, also two-handable, 1d8 base damage, can be spun to get +1 ac when fitghting defensivly, no-reach so no attacks of opportunity, and can be used to trio
06:16:38 <Roach> trip*
06:16:44 <Roach> and half-elf gives +2 to any stat, as well
06:16:56 <Roach> Feats just aren't as inportant to monks, is all
06:17:41 <Ballig> what book is nine-section whip in?
06:18:02 <Roach> SRD
06:18:26 <Roach> looking
06:19:03 <Roach> ultimate combat
06:22:28 <Ballig> are you taking the exotic weapon proficiency feat for it
06:22:36 <Ballig> or do you get prof with it automatically for monk
06:23:59 <Roach> I'm not sure if I get the proficiency automatically with monk, but if I use the Ancestral Arms race feature instead of the Adaptable feature, it gives me proficiency in one weapon, exotic or martial
06:24:21 <Roach> And I can't really see my character multiclassing, so I'm not losing anything by doing it, either
06:24:52 <Roach> bwahahahahaha
06:25:29 <Ballig> so why half-elf with ancestral arms instead of human with bonus feat exotic weapon proficiency?
06:26:39 <Roach> because I'd have to take martial weapon proficiency first, and waste two feats (since monks are not proficient with martial weapons standard, only a limited list)
06:26:55 <Roach> That, and the half-elf gets things like Low-Light vision
06:27:01 <Roach> and other things that are useful
06:29:04 <Ballig> just remember that by 4th level the whip probably won't be that awesome
06:29:22 <Roach> true, by 4th level my unarmed strikes are 1d8 base, sure
06:29:30 <Ballig> no?
06:29:37 <Ballig> at first level your unarmed strikes are 1d8 base
06:29:41 <Ballig> at fourth level they're 2d6
06:29:49 <Roach> but, I can still be using the whip two-handed to give extra damage, and it is much easier to - wait, what?
06:30:05 <Roach> I thought they started at 1d6, went up to 1d8 at fourth level O.o
06:30:12 <Ballig> nope
06:30:17 <Roach> Where is this?
06:30:20 <Roach> Link?
06:30:23 <Ballig> check the table under the entry for "Unarmed Strike" in the monk class
06:30:26 <Ballig> I use the book
06:30:34 <Roach> Ah. I don't have the book, I shall check.
06:30:38 <Ballig> actually, I might be wrong
06:30:41 <Ballig> I might be looking at large monk
06:30:46 <Roach> yes, you may
06:31:15 <Roach> yes, you are looking at large monk
06:31:17 <Roach> moving on :p
06:31:31 <Ballig> it's not my fault the table is unintuitive
06:31:38 <Ballig> why wouldn't you put medium on the table :p
06:32:19 <Roach> so yeah, whip is still a good choice
06:32:34 <Roach> and whip is still much cheaper to enhance/enchant than using the Amulet of Mighty Fists
06:33:38 <Ballig> sounds plausible
06:33:49 <Roach> yeah
06:34:02 <Roach> its a pretty versitile weapon, very well suited for a monk
06:34:24 <Roach> it gets outstripped at later levels due to the simple damage output of the unarmed fists, though, so I don't want to invest TOO much in it
06:35:08 <Avatar> I'd argue one feat is too much
06:35:29 <Ballig> pathfinder society only lets you go to level 12 right now though
06:35:31 <Ballig> Avatar: too much for what
06:36:19 <Roach> :p
06:36:34 <Avatar> too much to invest
06:36:53 <Ballig> he's not really investing a feat
06:36:56 <Roach> well, its mostly "I trade one mostly useless thing for something a little less useless"
06:37:01 <Ballig> he's losing the half-elf adapability trait and gaining proficiency in the weapon instead
06:37:06 <Roach> yep
06:37:26 <Roach> I don't really like to multiclass, so I'm not losing anything :p
06:37:27 <Ballig> so he's losing skill-focus
06:37:34 <Ballig> and gaining exotic weapon profociency
06:37:37 <Ballig> er, proficiency
06:37:48 <Avatar> when does the whip become redundant?
06:37:56 <Ballig> adaptability isn't related to multiclassing
06:38:21 <Roach> the earliest it would become redundant is level 8, when the unarmed strikes become 1d10
06:38:22 <Ballig> multitalented is the multiclass trait
06:38:41 <Roach> but, since the whip can be used two handed, I'd argue that it only maybe becomes useless around level 12
06:38:52 <Ballig> you take a two weapon penalty though
06:39:23 <Roach> not if I explicitly use the flurry of blows
06:39:23 <Roach> :p
06:39:32 <Ballig> a pretty heavy one because it's melee and not light
06:39:34 <Roach> well, flurry of blows is simpler and doesn't require me to use feats on it
06:39:54 <Roach> Why would I take the two weapon penalty, exactly?
06:40:30 <Ballig> you don't need to be dual wielding to flurry
06:41:09 <Roach> yeah, I don't
06:41:17 <Roach> I was just going to two-hand one medium sized whip to flurry with
06:41:30 <Ballig> right
06:41:35 <Roach> so I could use it in one hand without any penalty (other than losing some of the strength damage)
06:45:15 <Roach> I'd be looking at 14 strength, 14 dex, 14 con, and 16 wisdom, 10 int, and 10 charisma
06:45:25 <Roach> for 15 AC
06:45:37 <Roach> and a +2 to hit, with my whip doing 1d8+3 damage
06:45:45 <Roach> Not terrible for a level one
06:46:00 <Roach> And 10 HP
06:46:50 <Ballig> I do 3d6+30
06:47:40 <Roach> at level one? :O
06:47:46 <Ballig> 4 :p
06:47:52 <Roach> ah -w-;;
06:48:13 <Roach> How do you do that? Enchanted greatsword with a +10 strength bonus or something?
06:48:39 <Ballig> +2 strength modifier
06:48:44 <Roach> mmhmm
06:49:10 <Ballig> +1 lance, two-handed charge with the spirited charge feat
06:49:16 <Roach> ahh
06:49:27 <Ballig> and power attack
06:50:00 <Roach> what I'll probably do later on is get a Bag of Fire if I can (3500 gold 3.5 item) to give me 1d6+5 fire damage with my unarmed strikes
06:50:11 <Roach> Though, probably not permitted, is it
06:50:12 <Ballig> you won't get it in pathfinder society
06:50:19 <Roach> yeah, just as I thought
06:50:25 <Roach> Hmmm.
06:50:26 <Avatar> what book was that in
06:50:28 <Ballig> you'll have to find a similar pathfinder item
06:50:31 <Roach> Is Warlock a open class?
06:50:52 <Avatar> I haven't seen warlock
06:51:13 <Ballig> what book is warlock in
06:51:28 <Ballig> maybe if it's in ultimate magic
06:51:33 <Avatar> it's not
06:51:38 <Roach> tome of secrets, for the PF version
06:51:40 <Roach> I think
06:52:01 <Roach> The really fun part about the warlock is that you can have at-will damage capabilities, ranged
06:52:32 <Ballig> I have at-will damage capabilities ranged
06:52:34 <Ballig> I call it "charge"
06:52:44 <Avatar> yeah me too
06:52:47 <Avatar> I call it "my gun"
06:53:14 <Roach> :p
06:53:29 <Roach> no need to load, 1d6 + a die every two levels
06:57:48 <Roach> Eh, not nearly so certain now on what I'll be using
06:59:14 * Roach heads off to do horse stuff.
06:59:18 Roach is now known as Roachaway
07:22:20 Avatar- ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
07:32:23 canine ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
07:47:08 <Avatar-> good old canine
07:48:06 Roachaway is now known as Roach
07:48:28 <canine> hm?
07:49:05 <Mekkis> 1d6 per two levels or part thereof isn't much
07:51:31 <Roach> heh
07:52:17 <Mekkis> don't fear the d6s
07:54:29 <Avatar-> I fear them
07:54:46 <Avatar-> I need d12
07:55:00 <Avatar-> vs touch ac
07:55:01 <Avatar-> :o)
07:56:05 <canine> wait
07:56:12 <canine> new person!
07:56:17 <canine> or newER person anyway
07:56:33 <Roach> I thought that much was obvious :v
07:56:36 <canine> I thought something looked different.
07:57:55 <Avatar-> one of two
07:58:22 <canine> ooh
07:59:52 <Avatar-> mekkis did brunius confirm for the weekend game
08:06:21 <Mekkis> no
08:13:55 <Avatar-> did you ask him
08:14:21 <Avatar-> if you have ballig, canine and brunius here, you should play it out
08:14:52 <Avatar-> I don't mind being npc'd and if eidren doesn't show again, he's vanished
08:15:25 <Avatar-> my tactics are to shoot then ride away to reload and come back again
08:15:35 <Avatar-> unless the party needs my high ac
08:16:08 <Avatar-> and to go with plans rather than be spontaneous
08:53:09 <MekkisScreen> high ac?
08:59:45 <Avatar-> yeah I tend to have a mid to high ac above the others
09:00:06 <Avatar-> if that's the case, me staying in the fray is fine
09:08:42 <MekkisScreen> what if the situation requires you to dismount?
09:31:27 <Avatar-> then dismount
09:31:56 <Avatar-> I'm never that attached to dobs that I won't dismount
09:32:06 <Avatar-> imagine that
09:32:36 <Avatar-> he is just a vehicle to get some movement while I reload
09:32:48 <Roach> :p
09:32:50 <Avatar-> he looks after me and I look after him
09:36:17 <MekkisScreen> you don't like characters who are devoted to their mounts, do you
09:37:23 <Avatar-> buck is devoted
09:37:28 <Avatar-> but like
09:37:33 <Avatar-> as a friend
09:37:40 <Avatar-> not a siamese twin
09:39:30 <Avatar-> man the more I talk about it the more I want to play
09:48:41 <MekkisScreen> it's healthier than the converse
10:23:08 <Roach> Hmm.
10:23:43 <Roach> For my first character, I'm going to use Tangledweb for my character sheet instead of the text one you provide. I'm used to it, and I can just upload a link to the sheet/fill in PF skills for things I put points into.
10:31:44 <MekkisScreen> personally, I generally don't have an issue with that
10:32:02 <Roach> Okay
10:32:10 <Roach> I'll do that then
10:32:14 <MekkisScreen> (even though I hhave lost several sheets due to server issues in the past)
10:32:29 <MekkisScreen> avatar and ballig might have issues though
10:32:30 <Roach> ever heard of DnDsheets Mekkis?
10:33:54 <Roach> I had half of my sheets there, then, suddenly, one day, that site decided to just not-work for me, and me alone. I cannot open any part of that site.
10:33:54 <Roach> Not even when linked to another's sheet, it just won't work.
10:33:57 <Roach> So yes, I know that online sheets have their own flaws, but honestly, I'd rather use a online sheet than the text sheet, at least for now.
10:34:08 <MekkisScreen> I use LaTeX
10:34:21 <MekkisScreen> with subversion
10:34:30 <MekkisScreen> so I can see any changes, dates
10:34:35 <Roach> heh

17:14:18 <Avatar> did you double book
17:14:28 <Avatar> do you do that often, because that would explain a lot
17:14:30 <Brunius> I said I might.
17:14:38 <Brunius> I might go to GG on Sunday
17:14:45 <Brunius> Then other stuff got switched to Sunday
17:14:50 <Brunius> What would that explain?
17:17:35 <Avatar> well
17:17:49 <Avatar> you tend to look like you're ready for a game and then the day comes and suddenly you're busy
17:18:14 <Avatar> I hear you say maybe quite a lot when we check in with you
17:18:19 <Avatar> am I right
17:18:29 <Brunius> Not to my knowledge.
17:18:37 <Avatar> the correct answer there was maybe
17:18:47 <Brunius> Ha

18:15:32 <Avatar> brunius
18:16:40 <Avatar> have you finished the newbie guide yet
18:18:37 <Ballig> I haven't done anything to it
18:18:39 <Ballig> what am I meant to do to it
18:19:35 <Avatar> put in the disappearing act and post it
18:20:48 <Ballig> there are only two columns
18:20:52 <Ballig> what columns are meant to show up when you click what
18:21:53 <Avatar> there are 3 columns
18:22:11 <Avatar> the second and third show up when you click on something in the first
18:22:23 <Ballig> when you click WHAT, though
18:22:30 <Ballig> there are like 4 options on the left
18:22:34 <Ballig> and only two columns
18:22:36 <Avatar> yeah
18:22:43 <Avatar> the 4 icons, or make the text links
18:23:04 <Ballig> er
18:23:11 <Avatar> the split is still the same as before
18:23:17 <Ballig> no, that's not making sense
18:23:38 <Avatar> so if you click on new or 3.5, you still see all of it
18:23:42 <Avatar> if you click on pf you see less
18:23:46 <Avatar> if you click on pfs, you see less again
18:23:47 <Ballig> see WHAT
18:23:53 <Ballig> are you wanting me to make that decision?
18:23:54 <Avatar> of the two columns
18:24:23 <Avatar> I think I commented in the code where parts of it have to show for each skill level
18:25:12 <Avatar> mmm not very well
18:27:49 <Avatar> do you want me to clarify it or do you want to make the decision
18:27:54 <Avatar> it's pretty easy to identify
18:29:37 <Ballig> I want you to make the decision
18:30:33 <Avatar> alright
18:45:36 <Avatar> I am breaking this so completely
18:48:27 <Ballig> do you know how CSS works
18:48:39 <Avatar> yeah
18:48:44 <Avatar> I'm not sure why i didn't use it
18:48:48 <Avatar> very well
18:48:52 <Ballig> try uh
18:48:58 <Ballig> just id the things you want categorised
18:49:10 <Avatar> alright
18:49:11 <Ballig> like just do <span id="35exp"> and <span id="newbie">
18:49:12 <Ballig> etc
18:49:39 <Avatar> do you need spans or are divs okay
18:50:03 <Avatar> sorry I've actually started adding something else in
18:50:06 <Avatar> the comments are done
18:50:12 <Avatar> it's the other thing that's breaking it
18:50:24 <Ballig> doesn't matter what they are
18:50:29 <Ballig> you can do it to an entire table if you wanted
18:50:50 <MekkisScreen> an you do it to part of a table?
18:50:56 <MekkisScreen> can*
18:51:02 <Ballig> pretty sure
18:51:42 <MekkisScreen> so, do we have the players for tomorrows?
18:51:51 <Avatar> the only player you really need to confirm is brunius
18:52:06 <Avatar> eidren likely won't show ever again, and you know I'm out but can be npc'd
18:52:23 <Avatar> actually with that timeslot you might need canine to confirm as well
18:52:28 <Avatar> run it at 10 instead
18:52:37 <MekkisScreen> Ballig: are you willing to NPC Buck?
18:52:57 <Ballig> yeah
18:53:05 <MekkisScreen> because I refuse to NPC any PCs
18:54:00 <Avatar> yeah let the players take control man
19:48:14 <Avatar> http://roleplayadvertising.proboards.com/index.cgi
19:50:14 <Ballig> I'm the fourth person to visit this website
19:51:14 <Avatar> pretty sure you aren't
19:52:19 <Ballig> it says I am
19:52:28 <Avatar> where
19:52:38 <Ballig> right at the bottom
19:52:43 <Ballig> that big, tackly, glowing counter
19:52:47 <Ballig> -l
19:53:05 <Avatar> probably a new counter
19:53:16 <Avatar> active users in the past 24 hours says 75 guests
19:53:28 <Ballig> probably one person refreshing 75 times
19:53:35 <Avatar> making fake accounts
19:53:37 <Avatar> probably!
19:53:48 <Avatar> in fact, that's what I think it is!
19:56:34 Brunius ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
19:56:34 <Avatar> mmmm
19:56:42 <Avatar> if we had a 10am game I could be here for part of it
19:58:22 <Avatar> Brunius: are you coming tomorrow
19:58:22 <Brunius> Nope
19:58:22 <Avatar> good 1
19:58:22 <Avatar> what's going on
19:58:22 <Brunius> Not unless the new CPU arrives at like 9am
19:58:22 <Avatar> you and your cpu
19:58:22 Avatar has changed the topic to: PFS: Sat 12th 2.30pm (Mekkis) | LSK: Sat 19th 8.30pm || All times AEDT (UTC+11:00), CONFIRM YOUR ATTENDANCE by the Friday before! || EM: Sat 2pm | CotE: Sun 3.30pm
20:14:01 <Avatar> man I am never using tables again
20:14:06 <Brunius> Tables?
20:14:59 <Avatar> redoing the newbie guide in css
20:15:03 <Avatar> 1000x cleaner
20:15:05 <Brunius> Ha
20:15:18 <Brunius> They teach us to use tables in school
20:15:26 <Ballig> you can still use tables
20:15:32 <Avatar> forget fucking tables
20:15:34 <Avatar> ruining my life
20:15:42 <Avatar> I will use css tables, not html tables
20:56:20 canine ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
20:56:25 <Avatar> canine
20:56:30 <Avatar> can you make a 2.30pm timeslot
20:56:46 <canine> 230 your time?
20:56:50 <Avatar> yeah
20:57:40 <canine> I'll still be up then but I don't think I'd be able to stay up long enough to do a game
20:57:48 <Avatar> Mekkis: are you around
20:57:55 <Avatar> you need to rethink that timeslot

21:51:21 <MekkisScreen> I'm here
21:51:45 <MekkisScreen> I suppose I could do it saturday evening
21:52:24 <Ballig> that's worse
21:52:25 <MekkisScreen> actually, no
21:53:49 <Avatar> can't you do a morning
21:54:01 <MekkisScreen> if we hear from Brunius, Saturday or Sunday morning is possible
21:54:11 <MekkisScreen> I like sleeping on weekends
21:54:23 <MekkisScreen> Ballig, did you get me messages?
21:54:42 <MekkisScreen> my messages*
21:54:58 <Ballig> probably
21:57:30 <Avatar> brunius is out, but it looks like eidren might be in
21:59:58 <MekkisScreen> mmm?
22:01:12 <MekkisScreen> because people need to delete their images directory to receive the new map
22:07:15 <Avatar> does it depend on what size the map is
22:09:20 <MekkisScreen> no
22:09:32 <MekkisScreen> it depends on the map's checksum
22:10:00 <MekkisScreen> because CA only uses 16 bit checksums
22:10:43 <MekkisScreen> (the patch I wrote uses SHA1 which is 256 or 512 bits)
22:10:56 <Avatar> does resizing the map change the checksum
22:14:16 <MekkisScreen> yes
22:14:34 <MekkisScreen> soing anything to the map changes the checksum
22:15:11 <MekkisScreen> but with a 16 bit hash, as the images you have increase, the chance of a collision increase
22:17:50 <MekkisScreen> and the chance of a collision is pretty high
