00:00:10 <Mort-> Get seriously nerfed
00:00:21 <Avatar> what?
00:00:26 <Mort-> The core stone of my abilities don't work in his game :p
00:00:49 <Mort-> The entire concept I'm built on doesn't function in his game
00:00:54 <Mort-> So yeah not till level 7
00:01:03 <Mort-> Then there's nothing stopping me
00:01:24 <Mort-> Then catch the bbeg
00:01:28 <Mort-> Hideous laughter
00:01:40 <Mort-> Whole party wails on him. Matter settled
00:03:28 <Mort-> It was supposed to be an epic chase :p
00:03:38 <Mort-> he sort of got caught in record time
00:04:00 <Mekkis> we saved him
00:05:24 <Mort-> So did we
00:05:25 <Mort-> Anyway.

08:23:27 <Mekkis> not sure
08:23:31 <Mort-> Can i use scrolls? :p
08:23:32 <Mort-> Lol
08:23:37 <Brunius_AFK> I'll plug it at minecraft club tomorrow
08:23:42 <Mort-> Its cheaper
08:23:53 * Mort- blushes
08:24:18 <Brunius_AFK> If I end up showing up
08:24:27 <Brunius_AFK> argh, sleep
08:24:31 <Brunius_AFK> night
08:26:50 <Mort-> Lesser restoration really mek?
08:27:00 <Mort-> 600 gp :(
08:27:24 <Avatar> you will likely regret not having a pot of lesser restoration at some point
08:27:38 <Mort-> True
08:27:49 <Avatar> you don't understand why until it happens to you
08:27:58 <Mort-> Esp I'm doing front line work and my fort save sucks
08:28:11 <Avatar> it'll save your life
08:28:17 <Mort-> I already used a bottle of anti toxin
08:28:31 * Mort- shudders
08:28:38 <Avatar> forget antitoxin
08:28:44 <Mort-> I have i
08:28:45 <Mekkis> they saved Mytiazair's life
08:28:45 <Mort-> It
08:28:54 <Mort-> I won't make my fort saves
08:29:10 <Mort-> Point is. If you need it will one be enough?
08:29:15 <Mort-> Ok 600 gp here i come
08:29:20 <Mekkis> Mort-, yes
08:29:24 <Mekkis> one potion
08:29:27 <Mekkis> several scrolls
08:29:46 <Mekkis> actually
08:29:52 <Mekkis> Mytiazair now carries three
08:30:03 <Mort-> Do i have to do double on scrolls as well?
08:30:18 <Mekkis> I'd just get the eidolon one
08:30:25 <Mort-> Ie lesser restoration and lesser restore eidolon
08:30:39 <Mort-> The eidolon is more likely to happen anyway
08:30:49 <Mort-> I suspect someday I'm going to end up poisoned
08:30:54 <Mekkis> basically, you can survive taking a bit of int damage
08:31:05 <Mekkis> you can't survive taking a bit of con or str damage
08:32:27 <Mort-> Yeah
08:32:33 <Mort-> Ok is dr an issue?
08:32:38 <Mort-> For being a syn?
08:32:44 <Mekkis> you tell me
08:32:52 <Mekkis> my synthesist carries a weapon
08:32:55 <Mort-> Yeah i have my oil of bless weapon
08:32:58 <Mort-> I have tons
08:33:04 <Mort-> Cold iron morning star
08:33:28 <Mort-> Cold iron sickle
08:33:42 <Mort-> Silver sap ?! :p
08:34:04 <Mort-> Long spear
08:34:40 <Mort-> I did clonk people on the head with that morningstar before
08:36:14 <Mekkis> no, a faulchard
08:36:28 <Mekkis> a +1 keen adamantine one
08:37:04 <Mort-> Cmw time?
08:37:10 <Mort-> Or just save up
08:37:12 <Mekkis> nah
08:37:18 <Mort-> Ok got all those scrolls and potions
08:37:20 <Mekkis> what are you planning on getting?
08:37:31 <Mekkis> "oMF?
08:37:33 <Mort-> Amulet of mighty fists
08:37:36 <Mort-> Yeah
08:37:39 <Mekkis> =oP
08:37:50 <Mort-> Seriously
08:38:01 <Mekkis> /oW
08:38:02 <Mekkis> ?
08:38:20 <Mekkis> +oI
08:38:21 <Mort-> What?
08:38:31 <Mort-> Stop making faces
08:38:41 <Mekkis> get =oP
08:38:43 <Mort-> I'm considering versatile weapon
08:38:52 <Mort-> Get what?
08:39:01 <Avatar> =o)
08:39:09 <Mekkis> ring of protection
08:39:10 <Mort-> I have a scroll of lesser evolution surge.
08:39:17 <Avatar> =-+-<
08:39:20 <Mort-> No need yet?
08:39:31 <Mekkis> what AC do you want?
08:39:34 <Mort-> I rather get my fists first
08:39:39 <Mort-> Not that high
08:39:47 <Mort-> To be honest
08:39:57 <Avatar> o /
08:40:08 <Avatar> . / |
08:40:12 <Mort-> I definitely have no intention of spoiling peoples fun by being oped
08:40:16 <Avatar> ^
08:40:22 <Mort-> So I'm not going to cheese too much
08:40:31 <Avatar> didnt' line up very well
08:41:13 <Mort-> My ac is normal
08:41:19 <Mort-> Nothing that a fighter can't beat
08:43:39 <Mort-> I think for lower levels if i really need to overcome evil stuff dr bless weapon will work
08:43:59 <Mekkis> I think for lower levels you should look at dealing with swarms first
08:44:15 <Mekkis> rod of wonder... works wonders
08:44:21 * Mort- shows off her 10 acid flasks
08:44:25 <Mort-> I need that too
08:44:38 <Mort-> But that can wait till level 8
08:44:40 <Mekkis> Itzamna shows off his rod of wonder
08:44:44 <Mekkis> !reincarnate wonder
08:44:46 <diebot> Mekkis, Roll: 89: 10–40 gems - value 1 gp each - shoot forth in a 30-ft.- long stream. Each gem deals 1 point of damage to any creature in its path: roll 5d4 for the number of hits and divide them among the available targets.
08:44:50 <Mort-> Can't help it I'm broke
08:45:04 <Mekkis> that gives you money, right?
08:45:11 <Mort-> !throw 5d4
08:45:12 <diebot> Mort-, 5d4: [5d4=1,2,4,2,4] 13
08:45:25 <Mort-> I don't think you can use it that way
08:45:38 <Mort-> Else you can tell your gm you have infinite gp
08:45:56 <Mort-> Because you play with it all day
08:46:38 <Mort-> The rod of wonder is for if i ever decide to get large
08:46:53 <Mort-> Then its use the bloody rod till I'm the right size
08:49:31 <Mort-> Why would 1d4 points of temporary ability damage make that much of a difference though
08:49:40 <Mort-> To one ability score...
08:49:51 <Mort-> I mean i thought you would need more them one
08:50:43 <Mort-> I'm even considering when i get umd skilled then i may carry fireball scrolls around...
08:50:49 <Mort-> To deal with swarms
09:00:27 <Mort-> Well that's for people buying stuff for me :)
09:03:49 <Steven> why would you ever waste a fireball scroll on a swarm?
09:07:44 <Avatar> because it's better than dying to said swarm
09:10:02 <Mekkis> just put on a swarmsuit :)
09:10:14 <Mekkis> DR 10/-
09:23:45 <Steven> or use a flask
09:24:06 <Mort-> Its too slow
09:24:56 <Steven> how is it slow?
09:25:04 <Steven> move to retrieve standard to throw
09:25:11 <Steven> move to retrieve scroll, standard to use
09:25:53 <Steven> brb, taking sam to work
09:27:20 <Mekkis> I prefer the rod of awesome
09:32:11 <Avatar> the problem with a swarmsuit is you usually don't know the swarm is coming
09:32:33 <Avatar> nothing really beats that rod of wonder
09:32:43 <Mekkis> yep
09:32:49 <Mekkis> it does everything
09:32:57 <Mekkis> pays for your drinks!
09:33:04 <Mekkis> gets rid of swarms!
09:33:22 <Mekkis> increases AC and CMB
09:33:25 <Mekkis> and attack
09:33:35 <Mekkis> !reincarnate wonder
09:33:36 <diebot> Mekkis, Roll: 37: Lightning bolt (70 ft. long 5 ft. wide) 6d6 damage(Reflex DC 15 half ).
09:33:45 <Avatar> yeah 1 out of 100 times, anyway
09:33:50 <Mekkis> 3/100
09:33:55 <Mekkis> makes statues too
09:41:17 <Mekkis> Avatar, throw some XP at Bairaq
09:45:35 <Avatar> eh?
09:46:06 <Avatar> I tried to organise a game around him the other week, he wasn't keen on playing
09:46:11 <Avatar> when he is, I'll throw some xp at him
09:48:01 <Mekkis> you interested in playtesting some 5e stuff?
09:48:08 <Mekkis> ummm... D&D NEXT!!!111
09:50:14 <Avatar> yeah count me in
09:50:20 <Mekkis> have you read it?
09:50:26 <Avatar> skimmed it
09:50:37 <Avatar> I was looking for something different
09:50:43 <Avatar> most of it is the same
09:50:45 <Mekkis> are you willing to break your NDA by doing it online?
09:50:50 <Avatar> absolutely
09:54:48 <Mort-> Flasks do too little
09:55:15 <Mort-> Anyway yeah
09:55:48 <Mort-> Ok i need to outfit myself
09:57:34 <Mort-> I really have so many items i want
09:57:40 <Mort-> But no cash :(
09:58:16 <Mort-> Now mek if you were running perils of the pirate pact id willingly play at 3-4 on xyniel
09:58:26 <Mort-> Bring it on! :d
09:58:37 <Mekkis> hmmm
09:58:45 <Mekkis> Avatar won't want me to
09:58:52 <Mekkis> given that I've run it three or four times already
09:59:02 <Mort-> Just run anything i can play in
09:59:09 <Mort-> I'm not too arsed
09:59:11 <Mekkis> midnight mauler?
09:59:16 <Mort-> Already done
09:59:22 <Mekkis> really?
09:59:27 <Mort-> On mort the wizard
09:59:28 <Mort-> Yeah
09:59:35 <Mort-> She spoiled lots of fun
09:59:39 <Avatar> ballig will run pirates pact with a synthesist I think
09:59:41 <Mort-> Chase scene. Hold person
09:59:43 <Avatar> I don't think he's run it before
09:59:54 <Mort-> I can't play with ballig running
09:59:56 <Mort-> Not till 7
09:59:59 <Mort-> :p
10:00:03 <Avatar> what do you mean
10:00:09 <Mort-> Get seriously nerfed
10:00:20 <Avatar> what?
10:00:25 <Mort-> The core stone of my abilities don't work in his game :p
10:00:48 <Mort-> The entire concept I'm built on doesn't function in his game
10:00:53 <Mort-> So yeah not till level 7
10:01:02 <Mort-> Then there's nothing stopping me
10:01:23 <Mort-> Then catch the bbeg
10:01:27 <Mort-> Hideous laughter
10:01:39 <Mort-> Whole party wails on him. Matter settled
10:03:28 <Mort-> It was supposed to be an epic chase :p
10:03:37 <Mort-> he sort of got caught in record time
10:03:59 <Mekkis> we saved him
10:05:23 <Mort-> So did we
10:05:25 <Mort-> Anyway.
10:42:08 <Mort-> Could people use a full round action to give a syn a potion of enlarge person?
11:50:11 <Avatar> weren't you saying the other day that you weren't willing to buy anyone anything

12:13:43 <***> Buffer Playback...
12:13:44 <***> Playback Complete.
12:14:39 <Mekkis> Steven, alright
12:14:41 <Mekkis> I guess
12:15:02 <Steven> better then bad right?
12:15:08 <Mekkis> I suppose
12:15:24 <Mekkis> I get to play on Sunday!
12:15:37 <Steven> yay!
12:15:44 <Steven> do you not usually get to play on sundays?
12:17:02 <Mekkis> I usually don't get to play
12:17:22 <Steven> lately i havent been able to play on sundays, been GMing
12:17:29 <Mekkis> same here
12:17:39 <Steven> i guess they have noticed a drop in power levels at the tables here in town
12:17:50 <Steven> since ive been gming and not playing
12:19:22 <Steven> so i guess i get to play the next week or two
12:19:59 <Steven> its so weird all the new pople dont know how to build a well rounded character or optimized characters
12:20:33 <Steven> they just kinda build blah characters
12:21:15 <Mekkis> what do you know about dirty trick
12:26:22 <Mekkis> how much can the DM say "that's completely unrealistic, it's not going to work"?
12:30:17 <Steven> i would say it depends on how a person presents which dirty trick they are doing
12:31:16 <Mekkis> there's a player who is playing a manoeuvre master monk, who says that he can use some form of spiked chain to slash the enemy's forehead so blood drips into their eyes
12:31:26 <Mekkis> and claims that this is a dirty trick to blind
12:32:15 <Steven> ide say no at that point
12:32:21 <Steven> because theres a feat that does that
12:34:02 <Steven> dirty tricks are picking up some dirt and throwing it in the face of an opponent
12:34:14 <Steven> or faking an overhand chop and then kickin them in the nuts
12:34:46 <Steven> its not oh i slash you above your eyes and now you have blood in your eyes and cant see
12:34:50 tashphones has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
12:43:26 <Hydrazine> Hm.
12:43:38 <Hydrazine> I'd say sure. Go for it. Aslong as you don't do any damage with it.
12:44:00 <Mekkis> Hydrazine, really?
12:44:05 <Hydrazine> I don't see any particular difference between blinding someone by some good sand kicking and blinding someone with a well placed superficial slash.
12:44:14 <Mekkis> well
12:44:22 <Mekkis> it's easy to pick up dirt and throw it
12:44:34 <Mekkis> it's hard to achieve a well-placed superficial slash
12:44:40 <Mekkis> with a reach weapon
12:44:44 <Mekkis> held in two hand
12:44:47 <Steven> slashing forhead will bleed for a long time, i dunno if you have ever had a forehead injury, but i have and they dont stop bleeding within 30 or so seconds
12:45:09 <Mekkis> oh
12:45:35 <Mekkis> and as a bonus, since you're performing it with a weapon, you get the weapon's enhancement bonuses to CMB!
12:46:17 <Steven> then no... absolutely not.
12:46:21 <Mekkis> it feels awfully cheesy
12:46:26 <Hydrazine> Hm. Better off going for entangled then.
12:46:37 <Mekkis> and not particularly realistic
12:46:47 <Mekkis> and I'm a very liberal DM on those counts
12:47:07 <Steven> you only get to add your weapon bonus into the strike if it lists dirty trick as a weapon property
12:47:23 <Steven> i dont think chain does
12:47:35 <Hydrazine> Do any weapons list dirty trick as a weapon property?
12:47:40 <Mekkis> Steven, they changed that
12:47:44 <Steven> not that im aware of.
12:48:05 <Mekkis> and it's one of those weapons from UC
12:48:06 <Mekkis> I think
12:48:15 <Hydrazine> I don't think dirty trick as a weapon property exists.
12:48:33 <Mekkis> after nerfing the spiked chain, they had to reintroduce it in a later book :S
12:49:29 <Hydrazine> Hm.
12:50:20 <Hydrazine> I think I could be pursuaded to not allow weapon mods to affect dirty trick at all. Like bull rush and overrun.
12:50:46 <Hydrazine> All three are standard action manuevers, not attack equivalent.
12:50:50 <Mekkis> would you allow that sort of dirty trick iwth a reach weapon?
12:51:20 <Mekkis> (manoeuvre master monk gets them as part of flurry of blows)
12:53:01 <Hydrazine> is he why you hate maneuver master monks?
12:56:56 <Hydrazine> Hm. Tough call. I want to say no, but I can't quite explain why.
13:08:35 <Mekkis> partly

13:12:29 tashphones ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
13:13:59 <Mort-> Threat from the sea series by mel odom
13:14:47 <Mort-> Someone got a little gash near his eyebrow and it obscured his vision some on that eye
13:15:28 <Mekkis> immediately after the gash?
13:16:06 <Mekkis> was the gash delivered with a piece of chain
13:16:09 <Mort-> I think so. He was trying to wipe it off
13:16:12 <Mekkis> at 10' away?
13:16:36 <Mort-> I think they were having an axe and cutlass fight
13:16:41 <Mort-> Pirates ye know
13:17:47 <Mort-> Then there was this try to grab him (grapple?) Thing going on as well.
13:18:01 <Mort-> Moral of story. Pirates don't fight fair
13:18:32 tashphones has quit (Ping timeout: 181 seconds)
13:19:27 <Mort-> Anyway a good excuse for sickened on dirty trick is to kick the guy in the nuts.
13:19:39 <Mort-> Again with undead. Or a dragon.
13:19:53 <Mort-> How do you kick those in the nuts
13:20:05 <Mort-> Its always amused me
13:20:41 * Mort- ponders - could you reach a dragons nuts?
13:21:02 <Mekkis> yeah
13:21:08 <Mekkis> again, not with a weapon
13:22:00 <Hydrazine> I'm trying to figure out if monks really have to worry about dr/materials after all.
13:22:04 <Mort-> No. You're say a human
13:22:20 <Mort-> You tried to blind a large dragon by uh,
13:22:30 <Mort-> Kicking sand into his eyes?
13:22:38 <Mort-> How would you even reach that.
13:22:58 <Mort-> I think if you don't use manufactured weapons you will
13:23:27 <Mort-> If you find a way out let me know because i would rather not use manufactured weapons
13:24:53 <Mort-> I want to go full natural attack route for a change
13:25:35 <Mort-> Id say you could hit someone's nuts with a stick
13:26:06 <Mort-> Say if hydra was holding a large stick. I bet he could poke me at some sensitive spot :(
13:26:40 * Hydrazine finds a large stick.
13:26:46 * Hydrazine pokes Mort.
13:26:49 <Hydrazine> !throw 1d20+2
13:26:49 <diebot> Hydrazine, 1d20+2: [1d20=2] 4
13:26:54 * Mort- hides
13:27:08 <Hydrazine> Balls.
13:27:15 <Mort-> Only a +2? :p
13:27:25 <Hydrazine> I haven't rolled my stats yet.
13:27:29 <Mort-> Thought you would have more str :p
13:27:30 <Hydrazine> I just picked something.
13:27:33 <Mort-> Lol
13:27:50 <Mort-> Say i have 8 dex. That's still a miss
13:28:17 <Mort-> Dr has been chewing at me
13:29:18 <Mort-> Hey it isn't everyday i can do a pounce bite claw claw.
13:29:33 <Mort-> Should add a tailslap to that
13:30:26 <Hydrazine> Heh.
13:30:33 <Hydrazine> People were looking at me funny last game.
13:30:38 <Hydrazine> Hoku was grabbing ghouls.
13:30:42 <Mort-> Lol
13:30:55 <Mort-> Its sort of disgusting
13:31:08 <Hydrazine> well. Its more about the bite claw claw full attack, I think.
13:31:19 <Mort-> Maybe grabby should be your nickname not mind
13:31:20 <Mort-> Mine
13:31:22 <Hydrazine> But he never got full attacked by a grapple victim.
13:31:35 <Hydrazine> They were too busy getting folded up.
13:31:38 <Mort-> Matt calls me grabb
13:31:42 <Mort-> Lol
13:31:53 <Mort-> Assuming i got grappled
13:31:56 tashphones ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
13:32:05 <Mort-> I can make how many natural attacks?
13:32:15 <Mort-> All -1?
13:32:52 <Mort-> I bet someone will try to fold me into a pretzel :(
13:33:32 <Mort-> I don't exactly have to cmb or ea out of grapple you know
13:33:47 <Mort-> Just have to scare the shit out of my grappler
13:34:00 <Mort-> So he drops me and runs off
13:35:19 <Hydrazine> I think the best kind of dr to have, besides dr/- ofcourse, is probably /piercing
13:53:57 <Hydrazine> I went to the beach on the weekend. http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f220/ookichinpoko/Me/DSC02768.jpg

15:19:07 <Mort-> Steven. Things i won't roll. A gnome.

15:26:08 <Mort-> My masks of the living god is conveniently level 3
15:26:14 <Mort-> Oh well
15:26:27 <Mort-> Just the same level xyn is
15:31:36 <Steven> one of the dogs at my house just snipped at me
15:31:53 <Steven> there was a dog outside
15:32:10 <Steven> i was out there checking its tags to see if i could get an owner to come pick it up
15:32:19 <Steven> but to no avail
15:32:48 <Steven> so i left it out there
15:33:05 <Steven> and when i opened the door, moonlight made a bolt for it
15:33:29 <Steven> and i managed to catch her but scotty got out and he is friendly
15:33:35 <Steven> moonlight was all about killing the other dog
15:33:48 <Steven> so i pulled her back inside
15:33:52 <Steven> and she snipped at me
15:35:37 <Steven> picked her up by her collar and extra skin and threw her across the room.
15:35:45 <Steven> i was a bit angry i'd have to admit
15:36:19 <Steven> but yeah, she fuckin snipped at me
15:36:51 <Steven> little bitch
15:37:46 <Mort-> Lol
15:37:56 <Mort-> How many dawgs do you have

20:21:12 <Hydrazine> G'day Mort.
20:30:01 <Mort-> Gday hydra.
20:32:52 * Mort- waves at hydrazine
21:10:38 <Hydrazine> so no PFS for me tomorrow.
21:30:47 <MekkisScreen> what/
21:38:17 <Hydrazine> Got a hot date.
21:52:36 <Steven> hey peeps
22:00:28 <MekkisScreen> hey
22:03:34 <Steven> so hows ya doin mek
22:07:25 <Hydrazine> Howdy Steve.
22:07:50 <Steven> hey hydra
22:14:39 <Mekkis> Steven, alright
22:14:41 <Mekkis> I guess
22:15:02 <Steven> better then bad right?
22:15:07 <Mekkis> I suppose
22:15:24 <Mekkis> I get to play on Sunday!
22:15:37 <Steven> yay!
22:15:44 <Steven> do you not usually get to play on sundays?
22:17:02 <Mekkis> I usually don't get to play
22:17:21 <Steven> lately i havent been able to play on sundays, been GMing
22:17:28 <Mekkis> same here
22:17:38 <Steven> i guess they have noticed a drop in power levels at the tables here in town
22:17:49 <Steven> since ive been gming and not playing
22:19:21 <Steven> so i guess i get to play the next week or two
22:19:58 <Steven> its so weird all the new pople dont know how to build a well rounded character or optimized characters
22:20:32 <Steven> they just kinda build blah characters
22:21:15 <Mekkis> what do you know about dirty trick
22:26:22 <Mekkis> how much can the DM say "that's completely unrealistic, it's not going to work"?
22:30:17 <Steven> i would say it depends on how a person presents which dirty trick they are doing
22:31:16 <Mekkis> there's a player who is playing a manoeuvre master monk, who says that he can use some form of spiked chain to slash the enemy's forehead so blood drips into their eyes
22:31:25 <Mekkis> and claims that this is a dirty trick to blind
22:32:15 <Steven> ide say no at that point
22:32:20 <Steven> because theres a feat that does that
22:34:01 <Steven> dirty tricks are picking up some dirt and throwing it in the face of an opponent
22:34:14 <Steven> or faking an overhand chop and then kickin them in the nuts
22:34:45 <Steven> its not oh i slash you above your eyes and now you have blood in your eyes and cant see
22:43:25 <Hydrazine> Hm.
22:43:37 <Hydrazine> I'd say sure. Go for it. Aslong as you don't do any damage with it.
22:44:00 <Mekkis> Hydrazine, really?
22:44:04 <Hydrazine> I don't see any particular difference between blinding someone by some good sand kicking and blinding someone with a well placed superficial slash.
22:44:14 <Mekkis> well
22:44:22 <Mekkis> it's easy to pick up dirt and throw it
22:44:34 <Mekkis> it's hard to achieve a well-placed superficial slash
22:44:40 <Mekkis> with a reach weapon
22:44:43 <Mekkis> held in two hand
22:44:46 <Steven> slashing forhead will bleed for a long time, i dunno if you have ever had a forehead injury, but i have and they dont stop bleeding within 30 or so seconds
22:45:09 <Mekkis> oh
22:45:35 <Mekkis> and as a bonus, since you're performing it with a weapon, you get the weapon's enhancement bonuses to CMB!
22:46:17 <Steven> then no... absolutely not.
22:46:20 <Mekkis> it feels awfully cheesy
22:46:25 <Hydrazine> Hm. Better off going for entangled then.
22:46:37 <Mekkis> and not particularly realistic
22:46:46 <Mekkis> and I'm a very liberal DM on those counts
22:47:06 <Steven> you only get to add your weapon bonus into the strike if it lists dirty trick as a weapon property
22:47:22 <Steven> i dont think chain does
22:47:35 <Hydrazine> Do any weapons list dirty trick as a weapon property?
22:47:40 <Mekkis> Steven, they changed that
22:47:43 <Steven> not that im aware of.
22:48:05 <Mekkis> and it's one of those weapons from UC
22:48:06 <Mekkis> I think
22:48:15 <Hydrazine> I don't think dirty trick as a weapon property exists.
22:48:33 <Mekkis> after nerfing the spiked chain, they had to reintroduce it in a later book :S
22:49:28 <Hydrazine> Hm.
22:50:19 <Hydrazine> I think I could be pursuaded to not allow weapon mods to affect dirty trick at all. Like bull rush and overrun.
22:50:45 <Hydrazine> All three are standard action manuevers, not attack equivalent.
22:50:50 <Mekkis> would you allow that sort of dirty trick iwth a reach weapon?
22:51:20 <Mekkis> (manoeuvre master monk gets them as part of flurry of blows)
22:53:00 <Hydrazine> is he why you hate maneuver master monks?
22:56:55 <Hydrazine> Hm. Tough call. I want to say no, but I can't quite explain why.
23:08:32 <Mort-> But the blind someone with a superficial gash does work you know
23:08:53 <Mort-> There always this wipe blood off your forehead stuff
23:08:53 <MekkisScreen> really?
23:09:02 <Mort-> Uh in the book i read
23:09:13 <MekkisScreen> which book?
