00:02:41 <Hydrazine> do some math. consider how fast said projectile travels and how far its going.
00:03:37 <Hydrazine> 32fps^2 worth of gravity.

00:10:49 <***> Buffer Playback...
00:10:49 <***> Playback Complete.
00:11:08 <Avatar> over the next 40ft, I would expect drop, and a penalty
00:12:55 <Hydrazine> 1ft drop at 40 feet.
00:13:06 <Hydrazine> but this is the sort of thing good use of sights is for.
00:15:50 <Hydrazine> easy to work out as long as we stay under one second worth of travel
00:17:35 <Avatar> so within 40ft, you can shoot in a line
00:18:11 <Hydrazine> aslong as even at the last square a one foot drop won't mean you miss.
00:19:07 <Hydrazine> assuming your aiming chest high on a human size target, pretty safe bet.
00:20:18 <Mort-> Lol
00:20:31 <Mort-> Player defense attroney
00:20:44 <Mort-> :d
00:20:57 <Mort-> But lets just say for d&d
00:21:18 <Hydrazine> if only i got paid in XP..
00:21:19 <Mort-> What's stopping your bullet from penetrating people like a lightning bolt
00:21:27 <Mort-> Really
00:21:36 <Mort-> You do that in real life right?
00:21:46 <Mort-> Its too over powered
00:22:22 <Mort-> Btw hydra
00:22:39 <Mort-> How do you fight invisible creatures in a dungeon
00:22:48 <Mort-> Using only powder say
00:23:28 <Hydrazine> badly.
00:23:36 <Mort-> Imagine. Your casters forgot to bring anything to deal with invisibility
00:23:48 <Mort-> And no boxes guiding you this time
00:24:06 <Mort-> Might happen to khaz Rondaw
00:24:09 <Mort-> Some day
00:24:24 <Mort-> I wont promise he will bring glitterdust
00:24:38 <Mort-> He is too concerned about his gear to carry so many scrolls
00:25:21 <Avatar> you will regret not bringing glitterdust
00:25:31 <Mort-> Its 125 gp
00:25:40 <Mort-> I won't bring it until 3
00:25:41 <Avatar> are you bringing other 2nd level scrolls?
00:25:48 <Mort-> Or 4
00:26:01 <Mort-> Khaz may carry no 2nd level scrolls
00:26:11 <Avatar> if you're not carrying any, that's fine
00:26:13 <Mort-> He can't cast glitterdust until 4
00:26:20 <Avatar> oh, that too
00:26:37 <Mort-> There is a very distinct possibility he will bring no 2nd level scrolls
00:26:55 <Mort-> Do you see tasiv running around with scrolls?
00:27:03 <Mort-> No?
00:27:09 <Mort-> So why do you expect khaz to run around with scrolls
00:27:20 <Mort-> Its a mort trait
00:27:43 <Avatar> tasiv is either using his bow or healing
00:28:12 <Avatar> he should probably carry some scrolls as well though I guess
00:28:17 <Mort-> So I'm meleeing like good fighters should
00:28:30 <Mort-> Do you expect me to function like a wizard ? ^^
00:28:35 <Mort-> Haha
00:28:45 <Avatar> you do function like a wizard don't you
00:28:48 <Mort-> Ill bring mostly defensive scrolls
00:28:52 <Mort-> No
00:28:59 <Mort-> I think I'm closer to a fighter
00:29:02 <Mort-> Then a wizard
00:29:18 <Avatar> oh I didn't know magic missile doesn't work for you
00:29:37 <Mort-> No
00:29:43 <Mort-> Khaz won't use magic missile
00:29:56 <Mort-> He uses shocking grasp
00:30:08 <Mort-> Anything else its melee / pull out bow
00:30:14 <Avatar> oh
00:30:18 <Avatar> fighters don't use shocking grasp
00:30:22 <Avatar> but wizards do !
00:36:18 <Mort-> Well he isn't a wizard
00:36:24 <Mort-> Don't expect him to function like one
00:36:43 <Mort-> What happens if you try to cast a spell before you can by using scroll anyway
00:37:02 <Mort-> I'm not investing in a glitterdust scroll just to find it doesn't work
00:37:43 * Mort- seriously thinks tasiv should use faerie fire :p
00:38:17 <Mort-> I believe i would out dmg tasiv if we were both same level and he was forced to use long sword
00:38:35 <Mort-> Again. I'm made to close range melee he is made to bow
00:40:19 <Mort-> I admit he does wizzie things like colour spray :p
00:41:18 <Mort-> Yep. Rangers are actually more limited in the caster department
00:41:19 <Mort-> Hm
00:41:47 <Mort-> They can't cast till 4
00:42:16 <Mort-> Sigh. Hazards of not being a full bab class :p
00:42:27 <Mort-> People think you are a wizard :p
00:43:29 <Mort-> I guess i AM closer to wizard then tasiv is to druid line spells
00:43:53 * Mort- goes WHY ME!
00:44:25 <Mort-> Why do fighters get to spend all their monehs on gear while i have to stock up scrolls :(
00:52:25 <Hydrazine> balance.
00:54:54 <Mort-> No!
00:54:55 <Mort-> /
00:55:08 * Mort- pretends to be a fighter
00:55:19 <Mort-> I am a fighter :p
00:55:37 <Mort-> I can do 1d6+7 2 x in one round!
00:55:56 <Hydrazine> wimp
00:56:01 <Mort-> But seriously what are the penalties for trying to cast it from scroll without required level
00:56:07 <Mort-> Hey!
00:56:14 <Hydrazine> a higher umd check?
00:56:24 <Mort-> I perform better then tasiv would at close range
00:56:28 <Mort-> If it is umd
00:56:35 <Mort-> You can wait till i hit 4
00:56:43 <Mort-> No glitter dust till then
00:56:57 <Mort-> With 7 for cha I'm not getting umd out
00:59:32 <Hydrazine> you need the meet the int/wis/cha requirements. and have it on your spell list.
01:01:54 <Mort-> she meets all three requirements but her own caster level is lower than the scroll spell's caster level, then she has to make a caster level check (DC = scroll's caster level + 1) to cast the spell successfully
01:01:54 <Hydrazine> and it has to be the right flavor of spell. you can't cast divine.
01:01:54 <Mort-> I have the requirements
01:01:54 <Mort-> Don't worry about it
01:01:54 <Mort-> So its a dc vs 3
01:01:54 <Mort-> But i have no bonuses on it
01:01:54 <Hydrazine> a +1 vs dc 3?
01:01:54 <Hydrazine> pretty good odds.
01:01:54 <Mort-> Gah
01:01:54 * Mort- sulks
01:01:54 <Mort-> Why do i have to carry glitterdust? :(
01:02:08 <Mort-> Its 125 gp for entertainment :(
01:03:44 <Mort-> I think the spells ill bring along
01:03:54 <Mort-> Jump 1 scroll
01:04:07 <Mort-> Feather fall one scroll
01:04:38 <Mort-> Shield enlarge person and grease 2 scrolls
01:04:57 <Mort-> Comprehend languages 1 scroll
01:04:59 <Hydrazine> at that speed, about 75 feet of travel before it drops two feet.
01:05:18 <Mort-> Vanish 1 scroll
01:05:19 <Hydrazine> not counting for wind resistance, which would make it less, not more.
01:05:20 <Mort-> That's all
01:05:44 <Avatar> the range increment of a musket is 40ft
01:05:50 <Avatar> so I'd only be looking to shoot in a line over 40ft
01:10:01 <Mort-> K night all
