00:00:55 <Rafael_017> 3/5 players aren't roleplaying or only doing bull.... I whatched the movie "The gamers" and ... yeah I felt reminded of our group
00:01:31 <Mort-> Think it needs practice maybe
00:01:47 <Mort-> I'm only one year old to this. Or make it 9 months!
00:03:06 <Avatar> Rafael_017: what kind of things do they do
00:03:07 <Rafael_017> well I started 3 months ago... and I roleplay more than the most expierenced player in our group o.o
00:03:15 <Mekkis> Rafael_017, that's an uncomfortable situation. Roleplay can be contagious, but so can the inverse
00:03:37 <Rafael_017> Well one always want to fuck female
00:03:42 <Avatar> hahaha
00:04:25 <Mort-> Well..
00:04:43 <Mort-> My fighter buddy is always looking up pretty skirts ^^
00:04:50 <Rafael_017> NPC as soon as he sees them, others always reads the rules and disturbs the session saying that and that is not possible.... and the third is drawing pictures and only active during the fights
00:05:11 <Mort-> Lol
00:05:25 <Mort-> I was eating ice cream and trying to type with 1 hand earlier
00:05:34 <Rafael_017> My groupd is made of loners... their characters can't really form a group
00:08:08 <Rafael_017> since my characters dies I am either quitting or playing a RG-Character like a priestress/cleric ... before that I played a rather NN-Characters (well driven by revenge we was wather evil...)
00:08:23 Sachiru has quit (Quit: Shutting Down )
00:08:35 <Mekkis> who's the GM?
00:09:07 <Rafael_017> a rather shy person, which is the GM for the first time.....
00:09:21 <Mekkis> ah
00:09:23 <Rafael_017> ( every adventure the GM changed.... -.-)
00:10:51 <Rafael_017> anyone got advice how to play a rightious good characters without pissing the others off too much?
00:12:15 <Rafael_017> we play offline so searching for new players is really hard
00:13:11 <Mekkis> Rafael_017, there are two ways to approach it
00:15:31 <Mekkis> one method is to stick with your principles and be willing to kill off the others
00:21:30 <Rafael_017> and the other is?
00:22:09 <Mekkis> the other is to find some way to justify your character's presence with them
00:26:13 <Rafael_017> like there is a holy mission which can't be postproned and she needs someone to fight with otherwise she would die
00:26:25 <Mekkis> yeah
00:27:02 <Rafael_017> for the greater good my character will turn a blind eye if a character pisses on a holy figure or raides a grave.....
00:27:34 <Mort-> Really you should tell the other people to be less douchnw
00:27:53 <Mort-> If i knew a pally was as my table i would leave my imp at home
00:28:10 <Mort-> Hrm
00:28:25 <Rafael_017> well my character will do so... for the perverted mage .... there are ways to say him " Be good... and I will be good... to him" in a seducing way...
00:28:45 <Mort-> Though if i were a pally in question i might try convert the imp :p
00:28:58 <Rafael_017> and for the others my character will appeal to their warrior code
00:29:04 <Mort-> Hey pallies are always full of hope wot?
00:29:17 <Mort-> I think you need to talk to the other players in person as well
00:29:27 <Mort-> Can't always make allowances
00:29:40 <Mort-> What exactly are those other players doing
00:30:13 <Mort-> Which reminds me. Have to try to ask the paracountess of cheliax out
00:30:28 <Mort-> And tell her she is damning her soul to hell.
00:30:53 <Mort-> Those fiends are manipulating her for their own ends. Leaving her with the illusion she is in control of them.
00:31:39 <Mort-> But righteous good characters..
00:31:52 <Mort-> Too much of it also gives some problems
00:33:17 <Rafael_017> well there is one session left... there will be a grande finale.. my character will die and hopefully drag the endboss into hell with him....and then my group will have a long talk...
00:33:48 <Rafael_017> I can play almost all kinds of characters... even though I was really good at playing a semi-villain
00:33:55 <Mort-> Uh dying well is nice i guess
00:34:17 <Mort-> There are stupider ways to go
00:34:44 <Mort-> I like morally questionable characters
00:34:45 <Mort-> Actually
00:34:48 <Mort-> :d
00:35:02 <Mort-> But my forms come in all types
00:35:12 <Mort-> In pfs you can't play evil anyway
00:35:37 <Mort-> I think i can ce. But not le
00:35:56 <Mort-> Oh on the dnd alignment test. I'm lawful neutral :)
00:36:05 <Mort-> :d
00:39:34 <Rafael_017> Well my character was cursed... so he tries to find the person who did that and get revenge for his lover and unborn child.... his lover gave her soul to prevent my char to transform into the demon,, but the process has only be slowed down. In the process of tracking his nemesis he killed dark mages and twisted ones, raided to obtain magical items which lured dark mages... he was really driven by rage... the only thing that mattered was revenge. His
00:41:56 <Mort-> What happened to his child
00:42:06 <Mort-> Can you transform into a demon?
00:42:14 <Mort-> What are the details of the curse
00:42:44 * Mort- looks up remove curse. Break enchantment
00:44:09 <Rafael_017> my character can... but only once by his death. And his child was still not born, but the dark amge wanted the soul of her mother, so h killed them in a brutal ritual, which my chracter had to observe while being in a cage. It's how I made my character... the curse can only be lifed by killing the caster
00:44:25 <Rafael_017> and the GM accepted that^^
00:44:30 <Mort-> Kill him then
00:44:45 <Mort-> I wonder how you got out
00:44:47 <Rafael_017> well he is the endboss... next session he will die...
00:44:50 <Mort-> Barb?
00:44:51 <Mort-> Ok
00:44:53 <Mort-> Charge
00:45:14 * Mort- wonders whether to ride on rafaels shoulder to watch.
00:45:23 <Mort-> Again maybe not. Don't want to get roasted
00:47:30 <Rafael_017> well he will transform into Palrethee (tanar'ri) with some modyfications....
00:47:37 <Rafael_017> modifications*
00:47:49 <Rafael_017> -4 on damage, no flaming longsword and such
00:48:37 <Rafael_017> but transforming into that means that the demon will attack everying in sight, even my group
00:48:54 <Rafael_017> I really want to see the 3 way battle
00:53:17 <Mort-> Getting sleepy
00:53:25 * Mort- gets a scroll of dismissal
00:53:40 <Mort-> Begone to whatever plane you came from :d
00:53:59 <Mort-> Oh shit. Sr :(
01:01:47 <Mort-> Feeling fuzzy
01:01:59 * Mort- curls her tail around her and goes to sleep
01:13:06 <Avatar> you don't have a tail

06:33:39 <S711> I miss Irssi, but had problems with encoding, since I ran it in Cygwin, in Screen.
06:34:19 <S711> So when I said something and used symbols like "Ã¥" for example, then my sentence wouldn't go through.
08:19:38 <Mekkis> S711, I use konsole in linux in virtualbox when I'm stuck on a windows machine...

08:21:34 <Mekkis> Ausk, you presume my caster level isn't that high!
08:21:39 Steven has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
08:22:11 <Mekkis> and that I don't have extend spell
08:22:21 Steven ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
08:22:21 <Mekkis> or a 3.5e version of persist spell!
08:22:25 <Mort-> Seriously though
08:22:30 <Mort-> Who would cast it
08:22:42 <Ausk> what sanctuary?
08:22:46 <Mort-> You don't have a cleric or oracle mek.h
08:22:49 <Ausk> Its a decently useful spell.
08:23:15 <Mort-> I forget i can ddoor now...
08:23:30 <Ausk> yeah, go ahead.
08:24:17 * Mort- flaps wings
08:24:45 <Mekkis> heh
08:24:58 <Mekkis> I sent you both the link to the picture on Paizo's site
08:25:06 <Mekkis> but you both had +R :P
08:25:53 <Ausk> *cough cough* Chicken shit *cough cough*
08:26:40 * Mort- shrugs
08:27:16 <Ausk> so mort... gonna 5ft and ddoor?
08:29:28 <Ausk> also.... that map looks familiar...
08:29:33 <Mort-> Y not

08:29:40 <Mekkis> !throw 1d20+10 ranged, flat-footed touch attack at Ausk
08:29:40 <diebot> Mekkis, ranged, flat-footed touch attack at Ausk: [1d20=5] 15
08:29:54 <Mekkis> oh
08:29:57 <Mekkis> add +2 to that
08:30:06 <Ausk> it would miss either way
08:30:13 <Ausk> !roll 1d20+15 spellcraft
08:30:14 <dicebot> Ausk, spellcraft: [1d20=18] 33
08:30:47 <Mekkis> really?
08:30:54 <Mekkis> how do you manage that?
08:31:05 <Mekkis> uncanny dodge?

08:32:54 <Avatar> whta are you guys doing
08:32:59 <Ausk> dicking around mostly
08:33:10 <Mekkis> Ausk is trying to win against Ghandi
08:33:17 <Ausk> I was going to go to bed
08:33:27 <Ausk> but sam woke up, so theres no reason now.
08:33:29 <Mort-> He bullied me!
08:33:34 <Mekkis> !findchar Ghandi
08:33:37 <diebot> Mekkis, Character: Ghandi, number: 233( http://dnd.ballig.net/viewchar.php5?char=233 )
08:33:43 <Ausk> excuse me.... who slapped who Mort?
08:33:56 <Mort-> Because you were being rude to him!
08:34:11 <Mort-> You said you didn't care about his privacy!
08:34:17 <Mort-> i stand up for my friends!
08:34:25 * Mort- fluffs up!
08:34:50 <Avatar> no you don't
08:34:53 <Avatar> you make them go first all the time
08:35:04 <Ausk> Oh noes... i dont care about a person ive never met face to face's privacy
08:35:33 <Mekkis> you become aware that any hostile actions will be met with DIRE CONSEQUENCES!
08:35:53 <Ausk> mostly i dont care about his privacy, because if he doesnt want to share he doesnt have to you dork!
08:36:05 <Mort-> I would care about anyones privacy!
08:36:11 <Ausk> at which point, you slapped me, and i roared at you
08:36:28 <Ausk> Since then ive made no hostile actions.
08:36:33 <Mort-> Because you said you didn't care about his privacy
08:37:01 <Ausk> oh sure, keep running to that excuse... cause its worked so well so far.
08:38:43 * Mort- fur fluffed
08:39:34 * Ausk feels satisfied
08:39:49 Urist ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
08:40:04 <Steven> Methinks its time for more cherry coke
08:41:39 <Steven> oh yeah...
08:41:43 <Steven> its tasty
08:42:20 <Steven> so... walter just sent me an email. Told him about how my skull and shackles home brew was a failure to launch due to doucheness from josh
08:42:32 <Steven> inviting me to a new homebrew he is starting up
08:42:46 <Steven> His fell apart hardcore, and so he is tired of playing it.
08:43:12 <Steven> me and him went back and forth creating a pretty bad ass session for his players
08:43:25 <Steven> guy getting attacked by constructs
08:43:39 <Steven> party jumps in to save him but alas its one hit too many on him and he dies
08:44:35 <Steven> Party kills construts on the body they find a key to a shop, a letter, a box(artifact), and a writ of passage onto a boat.
08:45:40 <Steven> they dont bother reading the letter
08:46:47 <Steven> some guy shows up, says give me the box /insult /insult /insult, they hand the guy the box, buy passage on a boat and leave the area.
08:46:52 <Hydrazine> Maybe if it was a +1 letter.
08:47:34 <Steven> the didnt ask around town to find out who the guy was
08:48:04 <Steven> they put like zero effort into ti
08:48:35 <Steven> so walter was like well if you guys dont want to play, /end Homebrew
08:48:55 <Steven> and they were like no we want to play, we want to play
08:49:23 <Steven> but i guess its been like that for two weeks.
08:49:24 <Mort-> That's why for homebrews i let people take lead
08:49:41 <Mort-> People have done stuff like that more then i have
08:49:44 <Steven> they just phone it in on the roleplaying part and just rush into combat.
08:49:55 <Mort-> I still have a lot of hack and slash left on me
08:50:11 <Hydrazine> Well, different strokes for different folks and all, aslong as everyone's on the same page.
08:50:34 <Hydrazine> It sounds like the DM and the players want different kinds of games.
08:51:01 <Steven> no, the home brew was going on for around 3-4 months
08:52:04 <Steven> and before this they had been on top of it, but the last two weeks they just been like /minimum effort
08:52:30 <Mort-> Maybe bad day in rl?
08:52:37 <Steven> for 5 people?
08:52:39 <Mort-> We all have our mood swings
08:52:49 <Mort-> Try me at 2 am
08:52:50 <Steven> on 3 seperate days
08:53:26 <Mort-> I do remember my character was a tad grouchy that session ^^
08:53:50 <Steven> walter showed me all the content he already had written for the brew, and i would say its very easily paizo Module quality or better
08:54:15 <Steven> the players just refused to get into it.
08:54:32 <Steven> they did one encounter in an hour and a half.
08:55:04 <Steven> walter at the end of it just softballed the end encounter to them and they were just like, Meh, heres the artifact go rule the world.
08:55:18 <Mort-> Lol
08:55:50 <Mort-> Xyn will give it to the temple of sarenrae for safe keeping
08:55:51 <Mort-> :d
08:56:15 <Steven> because the BBEG he had set up was not supposed to come to them, they were supposed to follow some clues, had some interesting combats and finally a dungeon crawl to end boss
08:56:21 <Mort-> Mort would bring the artifact to her tower to do research on it
08:56:37 <Mort-> I think I'm slow at picking up clues
08:56:41 <Mekkis> so there was a lack of motivation
08:56:43 <Steven> but they were waiting in town for 3 days waiting for a ship to come in
08:56:56 <Steven> yeah complete lack of motivation.
08:57:03 <Steven> for 3 sessions.
08:57:13 <Mekkis> is that completely the player's fault?
08:57:13 <Steven> so he just ended it.
08:57:17 <Mort-> Again one thing is pfs is generally combat heavy and not so much into picking up clues and stuff
08:57:51 <Mort-> Generally ask vc what do you know about the region. Mission
08:58:12 <Mort-> Ok people lets pack bags and move out'
08:58:17 <Steven> I would say Majority of it on the players, i read the content he had, and what they had done before
08:58:30 <Steven> and it was fairly enguaging
08:59:07 <Steven> then the last week when i was helping him, we had a fairly large web of clues drawn out
08:59:23 <Steven> so they could pretty much do anything and it would get them somewhere else
08:59:42 <Steven> EXCEPT for just being like meh dude got killed, we got a cool box, lets wait for ship to come into town and then leave
09:00:59 <Hydrazine> Not quite as blatantly trying to get out of a campaign as selling all your worldly possessions and buying plane tickets to Russia.. but pretty bad.
09:01:00 <Steven> Anyways point being, Walter invited me to participate in the new homebrew he is making. Woot woot!
09:01:20 <Hydrazine> Which I did in a game once. My god that was terrible.
09:01:36 <Mekkis> I should start a homebrew again
09:01:40 <Urist> !throw 1d20+1 initative;
09:01:41 <diebot> Urist, initative: [1d20=19] 20
09:01:44 <Steven> since my home brew failed, his home brew failed
09:01:47 <Urist> HELLO!
09:01:51 <Urist> :)
09:01:57 <Mort-> Hi
09:02:00 <Steven> so hes like well, lets start a new one up, since you're no longer busy, you can play in mine
09:02:02 <Urist> hey mort
09:02:05 <Mort-> How was your weekend
09:02:12 <Urist> really good
09:02:16 <Mort-> I had a bad night
09:02:20 <Urist> i am not level 2
09:02:24 <Mort-> :d
09:02:25 <Mort-> Aw
09:02:29 <Urist> sorry to hear that :(
09:02:29 <Steven> He knows I will at least push things in interesting directions
09:02:40 <Mort-> How did coze die
09:02:55 <Urist> the first gm was an ass
09:02:59 <Mort-> It was too hot
09:03:05 <Urist> he was like, i dont like the pig
09:03:05 <Mort-> As in?
09:03:15 <Steven> Also, has anyone checked out the ARG?
09:03:23 <Mort-> Muslim?
09:03:28 <Steven> Humans... most powerful race EVER
09:03:38 <Hydrazine> Advanced races? No, haven't seen it yet.
09:03:41 <Urist> so i will use death touch on it, "whats the pigs touch"
09:03:58 <Steven> dude they can give up their bonus feat for another +2 in an ability score
09:04:02 <Hydrazine> But I am taking a peek at might of the Magus, and some of it seems like it might be absolutely ridiculous.
09:04:05 <Hydrazine> whaaat?
09:04:10 <Steven> i know right?
09:04:46 <Urist> well its just me moaning, what happened?
09:05:04 <Mort-> How do monsters even have death touch
09:05:06 <Mort-> At 1?
09:05:15 <Urist> no he used it on it
09:05:20 <Mort-> First its touch ac.
09:05:35 <Mort-> Then probably a fort/will save
09:05:54 <Urist> by a magic orc that appeared from nowhere
09:05:54 <Mort-> Yeah
09:06:09 <Mort-> Jerus could have started with 22 str
09:06:16 <Mort-> If the arg was to be believed
09:06:21 <Steven> no
09:06:30 <Mort-> Not?
09:06:37 <Mort-> I didn't really read that in detail
09:06:40 <Steven> its +2 in an ability score, and +2 in another ability score
09:06:41 <Urist> i just think its bs, but apart from that it was good
09:06:45 <Steven> wait wait, what happened?
09:06:49 <Mort-> But what did they write about magi
09:06:54 * Mort- ears perk up
09:07:42 <Urist> yeah, an orc used death touch on the pig
09:07:57 <Mekkis> don't worry
09:08:06 <Mekkis> humans are still stupid and short-lived
09:08:44 <Hydrazine> Monks would certainly appreciate an extra +2 on top of a point buy.
09:09:12 <Hydrazine> How about longbowing spell combat with rapid shot, Mort?
09:09:16 <Steven> why?
09:10:24 <Urist> cause we were fighting him, well actually he appeared from nowhere
09:10:52 <Mort-> Ouch
09:10:55 <Urist> we werre fighting 3 other orcs
09:10:59 <Mort-> Id ask for fort save
09:11:02 <Urist> yeah i know
09:11:06 <Mort-> Orcs are bad
09:11:10 <Mort-> It means you need a mymridach
09:11:16 <Steven> no i mean why did it kill a pig?
09:11:19 <Hydrazine> Or just a couple feats.
09:11:24 <Mort-> One killed the doodads dinosaur with 1 blow
09:11:29 <Mort-> In our home game
09:11:30 <Mort-> now if only gambit wasn't stuck with cards...
09:11:32 <Mort-> No
09:11:46 <Mort-> We immediately decided we had a pressing engagement elsewhere
09:11:47 <Urist> thats sickening mort :(
09:11:48 <Mort-> Mymridach lets you use ranged shocking grasp
09:11:56 <Mort-> Ran off leaving our tails behind :d
09:11:59 <Hydrazine> Heres one. Use weapon's crit modifier for spellstrikes. All the magi switch to light picks..
09:12:03 <Mort-> Lol
09:12:09 <Mort-> I'm still trying to figure out if it works for duration melee touch
09:12:12 <Mort-> We ran really fast
09:12:19 <Mort-> You won't crit
09:12:20 <Urist> haha
09:12:27 <Mort-> Keen has limitations hydra.
09:12:41 <Hydrazine> No.
09:12:49 <Hydrazine> I mean critting x4 on a shocking grasp.
09:12:55 <Mort-> Though you can say any magus will have his weapon "permanently keened" past 5
09:13:05 <Mort-> Its the trying to crit part
09:13:09 <Mort-> Discretion is the better part of valour
09:13:18 <Urist> true
09:13:30 <Mort-> The reason why every magus ends up with a scimitar is the range
09:13:49 <Mort-> If i were doing skulls and shackles type adventure
09:13:52 <Hydrazine> Think this would change if they had an option to go for the modifier instead?
09:14:01 <Mort-> I would switch to cutlass
09:14:04 <Mort-> I think not.
09:14:26 <Mort-> Pig. I say the gm is muslim ::
09:14:27 <Mort-> Most people on the boards voted for bigger range opposed to higher crit mod
09:14:29 <Mort-> P
09:14:36 <Mort-> Or doesn't like animal companions
09:14:59 <Urist> haha i actually loled, i have nothing against muslims but that was funny :P
09:15:06 <Mort-> I think it would be cool to fire entangling arrows
09:15:12 <Mort-> But not sure how to do Thu
09:15:14 <Mort-> That
09:15:27 <Urist> i think it might be option 2
09:15:29 <Mort-> In our case it was a better the dinosaur then us.
09:15:30 <Mort-> If ranged spell strike worked on frostbite
09:15:38 <Mort-> The gm crit on that hit
09:15:41 <Mort-> ><
09:15:45 <Mort-> You could technically fire entangling arrows
09:15:52 <Hydrazine> Casting touch spells as AoOs.
09:15:53 <Urist> oww :(
09:15:54 <Mort-> Crits at level 1...
09:16:01 <Urist> fatal
09:16:05 <Mort-> With a x3 weapon
09:16:14 <Mort-> ^^
09:16:18 <Mort-> With the frost bite damage doing once per round 1d6+ caster level
09:16:32 <Mort-> Time to get prehensile hair hex
09:16:40 <Mort-> What? You didn't know i had reach?
09:16:53 * Mort- tail slaps a shocking grasp :p
09:16:57 <Mort-> Wow cool
09:17:10 <Steven> Think i might buy the ARG
09:17:22 <Urist> oh yeah i went up a level :)
09:17:25 <Hydrazine> Huh. Thats actually kind of cool.
09:17:30 <Mort-> Personally i love my fuzzy friends
09:17:32 <Mort-> Grats
09:17:51 <Urist> thanks, have to udate my char sheet
09:17:57 <Hydrazine> Metamagic to turn a touch spell into a shield sort of effect that triggers when they hit you.
09:18:00 <Mort-> If i played a doodad i would have fuzzy friends
09:18:10 <Mort-> What?
09:18:16 <Mort-> Explain that
09:18:37 <Hydrazine> You metamagic shocking grasp with this, go about your day.
09:18:51 <Hydrazine> stupid orc axes you, gets shocked like woah.
09:18:58 <Mort-> Oh oh
09:19:08 <Mort-> If i were a bbeg
09:19:14 <Mort-> Argh
09:19:15 <Urist> a lemur :P
09:19:17 <Mort-> Help.
09:19:22 <Urist> what?
09:19:25 <Mort-> I would either use protection from electricity
09:19:30 <Mort-> Now i have two games i signed up for
09:19:31 <Mort-> Choose 1
09:19:35 <Mort-> Oh no
09:19:50 <Mort-> Or just throw a few mooks at the magus in question to set off the bomb
09:19:52 <Mort-> I fked up my time zone conversion again
09:19:53 <Mort-> So to speak
09:20:12 <Mort-> Then move in
09:20:24 <Urist> feck, so which ones are they?
09:20:28 <Mort-> On hit its like defensive shock?
09:20:31 <Mort-> No saves?
09:20:35 <Mort-> Only sr?
09:21:12 <Mort-> Beggars pearl
09:21:29 <Mort-> And imortal condunem
09:21:40 <Urist> any vacancies for a level 2 tier?
09:21:55 <Mort-> Beggars pearl is probably low level
09:22:08 <Mort-> So its like do i want to play my wizard
09:22:13 <Urist> cool, might actually play that tonight
09:22:14 <Mort-> Or my syn
09:22:18 <Mort-> Ah
09:22:21 <Urist> yeah :)
09:22:36 * Hydrazine reads.
09:22:40 <Mort-> What did you name coze's replacement
09:22:58 <Hydrazine> Spell goes off as normal. If its a spell with multiple charges it lasts for that many hits.
09:23:11 <Mort-> Kaboom.
09:23:23 <Urist> Coze 2 haha
09:23:23 <Mort-> Hear that bbegs?
09:23:30 <Mort-> Ok :(
09:23:34 <Urist> or Volack
09:23:38 <Mort-> Ok
09:23:44 <Urist> yeah that sounds better
09:23:47 <Mort-> Ill call him volack
09:23:52 <Mort-> :d
09:24:06 * Mort- scratches volack behind the ears
09:24:50 <Urist> *volack squaels with delight
09:25:17 <Urist> squeels
09:25:24 <Mort-> :d
09:25:36 * Mort- tosses volack an apple
09:26:32 <Urist> and its gone in a blink of an eye
09:27:57 <Mort-> :d
09:28:15 <Mort-> Have to choose
09:28:31 <Mort-> Anyway last game
09:28:42 <Mort-> Hydra nearly got eaten by large spiders
09:28:58 <Urist> wow, was he Jerus?
09:28:59 <Mort-> I hid behind and stayed a sneakymur!
09:29:08 <Urist> haha
09:29:25 <Mort-> What happened at the convention
09:29:46 <Urist> i went with a couple of people from college
09:30:09 <Urist> got 120 magic cards for £2.50
09:30:11 <Mort-> No
09:30:15 <Mort-> Hokubi
09:30:17 <Mort-> His monk
09:30:18 <Urist> no?
09:30:22 <Mort-> I stopped playing
09:30:24 <Urist> oh ok
09:30:31 <Mort-> As in he was in monk form
09:30:54 <Mort-> Jerus would have a lovely time last scenario
09:31:11 <Mort-> Cleave. Cleaving finish. Keep cleaving :p
09:31:19 <Urist> haha
09:31:59 <Mort-> But oh well
09:32:12 <Mort-> So the convention again?
09:32:17 <Mort-> Bought magic cards
09:32:20 <Mort-> Then?
09:33:15 <Mort-> ?
09:33:24 * Mort- tail taps excitedly
09:35:28 * Mort- tail twitches
09:36:34 <Urist> went to a japanese restuarant
09:36:49 <Urist> and got sake :)
09:37:47 <Mort-> Ok
09:37:51 <Hydrazine> howdy Urist
09:37:53 <Mort-> I don't approve of drinking
09:38:08 * Mort- nips urist :p
09:38:14 <Mort-> Hi hydra!
09:38:32 <Urist> Hey hydra :), sorry to hear that but its my choice if i do
09:38:40 <Mort-> True.
09:38:54 <Mort-> I'm quirky that way
09:38:54 <Hydrazine> I like sak.
09:38:56 <Hydrazine> Sake.
09:39:09 <Hydrazine> Yeah, Hoku almost got munched by spiders, but overall it worked out pretty well.
09:39:22 <Hydrazine> Considering our two spellcasters were sitting ducks stuck in web.
09:39:42 <Hydrazine> And the spiders were playing around with me instead of going to town on them
09:39:55 <Mort-> Well if the place wasn't flammable id set the webs alight
09:40:09 <Mort-> No mind affecting so no colour spray anyway
09:40:12 <Urist> ah, that was good in a way cause they were defenceless
09:40:16 <Mort-> Sux to be me
09:40:19 <Hydrazine> But I almost feel sorry for the DM on that first fight.
09:40:24 <Mort-> Oh yes
09:40:26 <Hydrazine> He couldn't do a damn thing.
09:40:31 <Mort-> We pwned them
09:40:39 <Hydrazine> It was terrible, Urist.
09:40:46 <Mort-> Actually there is a way
09:40:55 <Mort-> If i were there i would cut the year
09:40:59 <Mort-> Webs
09:40:59 <Hydrazine> One good web spell caught like 6 of the enemy. And their backup plan was shortbows, which you can't use webbed.
09:41:02 <Mort-> Or try to
09:41:27 <Mort-> To be honest we didn't make good ranged fighters
09:41:34 <Mort-> I wanted to go up to the bad guy
09:41:35 <Hydrazine> No, we really didn't.
09:41:49 <Mort-> Point an arrow at his heart at point blank range
09:41:51 <Mort-> And cdg
09:42:04 <Mort-> Nice picture :p
09:42:13 <Hydrazine> Hoku went an entire scenario without pinning anything.
09:42:19 <Hydrazine> No faces shoved in the dirt.
09:42:30 <Urist> haha, thats a pity
09:42:32 <Mort-> Oskar would laugh at us in the first fight
09:42:34 <Mort-> Big time
09:42:47 <Hydrazine> IF Oskar was there, he'd be laughing his way to the bank.
09:42:56 <Mort-> Hey..
09:43:11 <Mort-> Yeah Archery range
09:43:15 <Hydrazine> Kick lots of ass, Urist?
09:43:19 <Mort-> I nearly set the web alight
09:44:36 <Urist> I did, i was playing Mists of MWangi
09:44:57 <Urist> alot of undead to smash up with the silver warhammer
09:45:05 <Hydrazine> I've done that one.
09:45:05 <Urist> :)
09:45:18 <Hydrazine> I think Jerus had a blast there.
09:45:18 <Urist> yeah, what do you think of it?
09:45:37 <Hydrazine> Cool scene.
09:45:47 <Urist> without being to specific just incase some havent
09:45:57 <Urist> yeah i liked it
09:46:18 <Hydrazine> Mort, whats upcoming, you said? And when?
09:51:32 <Hydrazine> The bright side is, Urist, Hoku hit 3.
09:52:14 <Urist> nice
09:52:30 <Hydrazine> I just wish my bonus feats didn't suck so hard.
09:52:47 <Urist> Hydra, what was the name of the feat for Volack at Level 2?
09:52:54 <Hydrazine> Power attack?
09:53:01 <Urist> thats the one
09:53:04 <Urist> thans
09:53:07 <Urist> thanks
09:53:11 <Hydrazine> Jerus has it. Uses it to great effect.
09:53:16 <Hydrazine> Wanna see the difference?
09:53:22 <Urist> ok
09:53:23 Hydrazine is now known as Jerus
09:53:27 <Jerus> @atk
09:53:27 <diebot> Jerus, attack: [1d20=13] 26; damage: [1d12=2] 12
09:53:29 <Jerus> @pa
09:53:30 <diebot> Jerus, power attack: [1d20=4] 17; damage: [1d12=5] 21
09:53:31 <Mort-> Show off
09:53:36 Jerus is now known as Hydrazine
09:53:43 * Mort- flumps
09:53:45 <Mort-> :p
09:53:55 <Urist> nice man
09:54:08 <Urist> if a 17 hit that is
09:54:11 <Mort-> Its Google groups
09:54:12 <Hydrazine> My base modifiers are all awkward for Hoku, Mort.
09:54:27 <Mort-> What do you mean
09:54:33 <Hydrazine> Base for attacks? 2. For CMBs? 3. For grapple cmd? 3. For other CMDs? 2.
09:55:36 <Mort-> You have wep finesse and agile maneuvers right?
09:55:42 <Hydrazine> Mhm.
09:55:47 <Mort-> And seriously just go get a wand of mage armor
09:55:49 <Mort-> Ill help
09:55:50 <Hydrazine> And now, turtle style I think.
09:55:56 <Mort-> All my characters can umd
09:56:00 <Mort-> If nothing else
09:56:09 <Mort-> Include grull ^^
09:56:24 <Hydrazine> Because Turtle Clutch by 5 will be sweet/
09:56:27 <Mort-> Some of us do it like pros
09:56:34 <Mort-> Miss and get grabbed :d
09:56:45 <Hydrazine> Though I think I'd take it chokehold at 7 probably, and not turtle shell.
09:56:48 <Mort-> Oh wait. No grabbing hydra
09:56:52 <Hydrazine> Turtle shell is just defenses really.
09:57:17 <Hydrazine> It also makes him harder to get away from
09:57:18 <Mort-> I shall dub thee as grabby turtle!
09:57:31 <Mort-> hi grabby turtle!
09:57:33 Steven has quit (Ping timeout: 181 seconds)
09:57:50 <Mort-> Should i play mort or xyn
09:58:06 <Mort-> I accidentally signed up for 2 games on the same time slot
09:58:07 <Hydrazine> But the -4 to hostile confirm rolls is kinda cool I guess.
09:58:21 <Mort-> Ooh
09:58:23 <Hydrazine> I mean, it probably won't come up every day, but it seems like something that might really matter when it does.
09:59:03 <Mort-> That's why people put fortification on their armor
09:59:10 <Mort-> I heard that ddo online
09:59:25 <Mort-> You're supposed to get fortification on your armor by level 10
09:59:32 <Mort-> Or get pwned
10:00:36 <Mort-> There's is a magus who went blind fight moonlight stalker line
10:00:59 <Mort-> I wonder how you actually turn on your concealment without your allies bitching about it
10:01:21 <Mort-> I mean most monsters can see in the dark better then you can
10:01:49 <Mort-> And if you used obscuring mist wouldn't your allies yell all kinds of swear words?
10:02:27 <Mort-> Alternatively you could try the smoke stick trick
10:02:44 <Hydrazine> 19 AC now.
10:03:31 <Mort-> Nice
10:03:49 <Mort-> Btw grabby turtle
10:04:01 <Mort-> Did you play the witcher?
10:05:02 <Urist> mort when is the Beggars pearl supposed to begin?
10:05:03 <Hydrazine> no.
10:06:08 <Mort-> My time Sunday 11 am
10:06:20 <Mort-> Ah the final scene was nice
10:06:48 <Urist> oh so yesterday?
10:06:49 <Mort-> Bad guy: "but this sword is for monsters"
10:06:54 <Mort-> No
10:06:58 <Mort-> This coming week
10:07:08 <Urist> oh,
10:07:11 <Mort-> Probably 4 am on sat for you
10:07:29 <Mort-> Hero runs him through with the sword
10:07:33 <Urist> 3 am
10:07:38 <Mort-> Ah ok
10:07:48 <Urist> but thanks anyway
10:08:49 mortswishytail ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
10:09:00 <mortswishytail> If i play mort
10:09:17 <mortswishytail> There will be an even bigger level gap between her and the rest of the channel
10:09:36 <Hydrazine> Yeah...
10:09:42 <mortswishytail> Again if i don't play mort because of that i must as well forget playing her
10:09:51 <mortswishytail> What a problem
10:09:57 <mortswishytail> I have to choose
10:10:08 <Hydrazine> Remind me when its closer to game time?
10:10:14 <Hydrazine> Maybe I'll try and get in.
10:10:14 <mortswishytail> You?
10:10:17 <mortswishytail> Ok
10:10:24 <mortswishytail> There are 2 games
10:10:40 <mortswishytail> On the same time
10:11:25 <mortswishytail> Immars is running imortal condruneum at 5-9
10:11:41 Mort- has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
10:11:44 <mortswishytail> And balgin is running beggars pearl at probably lower level
10:11:58 <mortswishytail> I have to choose which one i want to play
10:14:33 mortswishytail has quit (Quit: Bye)
10:14:37 Mort- ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
10:14:46 Steven ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
10:14:55 <Mort-> Btw hydra. What do you think about ghoul touch
10:15:02 <Mort-> I'm thinking of getting a reach rod
10:15:11 <Mort-> Then drop ghoul touch
10:15:20 <Mort-> Dc will be 17
10:15:25 <Mort-> Fort save
10:15:36 Steven has quit (Quit: )
10:17:58 <Urist> alright im off to bed, talk to you later
10:18:29 Urist has quit (Quit: )
10:19:41 <Mort-> Aw
10:22:13 <Hydrazine> Hmm.
10:22:23 <Hydrazine> I'll consider this ghoul touch thing
10:22:50 <Mort-> Um, no. It's the problem of people buying into Paizo's Big Lie and saying "ooh, goblins are evil, they can't be paladins," when, in fact, goblins are full of love and compassion and generosity.
10:23:13 <Mort-> I believe them. Goblins can be paladins!
10:23:51 <Mort-> They love fire. Are passionate (see goblins sometimes mix passionate and compassionate) about things that go kablooey and are generous with their 'splosions.
10:23:51 <Mort-> This one is true too
10:43:23 Rafael_017 has quit (Quit: Leaving.)
11:19:21 <Hydrazine> I'm eyeballing rope tricks, Mort.
11:19:54 <Hydrazine> Think a -5 to Hoku's CMB will be severe later on?
11:34:00 <Mort-> Rope tricks!
11:34:24 * Mort- fetches hydra 50ft silk rope. Black of course.
11:35:10 <Hydrazine> Just for an example, whats Kalara's cmd?
11:35:50 <Hydrazine> Or rather, cmd -2.
11:36:12 <Mort-> 16
11:36:33 <Mort-> No she doesnt like being tied up
11:37:05 <Hydrazine> !throw 1d20+7
11:37:05 <diebot> Hydrazine, 1d20+7: [1d20=18] 25
11:37:13 <Mort-> No crating please
11:37:15 <Hydrazine> Well, ofcourse with an 18..
11:37:21 <Mort-> Cmb break or attempt to
11:37:38 <Mort-> !throw 1d20+4
11:37:38 <diebot> Mort-, 1d20+4: [1d20=14] 18
11:37:46 <Hydrazine> 29 DC. Good luck.
11:38:14 <Hydrazine> Including specifically that nat 20s don't mean anything special.
11:38:18 <Mort-> What am i supposed to do
11:38:20 <Mort-> :(
11:38:29 <Mort-> I'm a tinymur
11:38:29 <Hydrazine> I think I'm replacing choke hold with rope trick.
11:38:50 <Hydrazine> Why bother trying to pin big targets. Just rope 'em up and call it a day.
11:39:15 <Mort-> I need to check
11:39:21 <Hydrazine> Especially since in a level, its pretty much no penalty.
11:39:23 <Mort-> Can they get a claw free?
11:39:37 <Hydrazine> tied up is tied up. Helpless condition.
11:40:05 <Mort-> Link me the feat
11:40:11 <Mort-> i can't see it
11:41:35 <Mort-> Its not fair you can tie me up in knots :(
11:41:36 <Hydrazine> Its not on the site. Or rather, I can't find it.
11:41:41 <Mort-> Yeah
11:41:45 <Mort-> So i can't see it
11:41:52 <Mort-> Paste it for me then
11:42:17 <Hydrazine> Hogtie (Improved Grapple): When you attempt to tie
11:42:17 <Hydrazine> up an opponent you are grappling, your penalty is only –5
11:42:17 <Hydrazine> instead of the normal –10
11:42:27 <Mort-> That inquisitor will love hokku
11:43:02 <Mort-> Hoku is a prefect crating buddy
11:43:32 <Mort-> Except you don't approve of crating do you :p
11:45:25 <Hydrazine> This greatly changes my thoughts of where Hoku might be going.
11:45:56 <Hydrazine> Dropping tied fools to the floor in a single round and moving on, sounds like a good way to end an encounter.
11:45:58 <Mort-> Your tying people up?
11:46:08 <Mort-> How much penalty
11:46:15 <Mort-> Lol
11:46:21 <Mort-> How do you do it exactly
11:46:28 <Mort-> Show the steps one by one
11:46:37 <Mort-> You can tie me up i suppose
11:47:33 <Hydrazine> Step 1. Grab as normal.
11:47:59 <Mort-> Ouch. I got grabbed
11:48:13 <Hydrazine> Thats a standard action.
11:48:17 <Mort-> But if i get grabbed i can forget about breaking free right?
11:48:27 <Mort-> Ok
11:48:31 <Mort-> Next step?
11:48:32 mekkis_tablet has quit (Connection closed)
11:49:16 <Hydrazine> So, since controlling a grapple, +5 to further grapple attempts.
11:49:25 <Mort-> Correct
11:50:05 <Hydrazine> step 2. Roll a grapple check at to tie up. -5 penalty balances against the +5 I just gained.
11:50:16 <Hydrazine> So effectively, same roll as before against a lower DC, since you lost dex.
11:50:37 <Hydrazine> Step 3, laugh my way to the bank.
11:51:05 <Hydrazine> Somewhere in there I'd need to spend a move action to get a rope out. Or take the first roll at -4.
11:51:11 <Hydrazine> Which may not be that terrible later on.
11:54:05 <Hydrazine> Woah. You only roll once for greater grapple. I never noticed that.
11:54:54 <Hydrazine> Man, now I'm upset they took out twin lock.
11:59:06 <Hydrazine> I think Mr. Danielewski writes books that simply do not work on today's e-readers.
12:01:47 <Mort-> What?
12:01:52 <Mort-> But its 2 turns?
12:05:28 <Mort-> Concentration check on casting while tied up?
12:23:25 <Hydrazine> Currently 2 turns. It'll get faster.
12:24:09 <Hydrazine> Not 100% on that. I think, to start, you can't perform somatics or get out materials.
12:24:44 <Hydrazine> See, the issue is, tied up says "This works like a pin effect" then goes on to discuss escape DCs.
12:26:09 <Hydrazine> It doesn't say anything specific about spellcasting. So if you use the pin rules for it, do you use the person's CMB or the rope's escape DC?
12:26:33 <Hydrazine> Its CMB+spell level+ either 10 or 20, depending on how you rule it.
12:27:32 <Mort-> Sla still require concentration checks?
12:27:37 <Hydrazine> Yes.
12:27:54 <Mort-> Lets say we have this demon with an immolation aura
12:28:09 <Mort-> he sprouts flame from his body at will
12:28:19 <Mort-> Not too unbelievable really
12:28:49 <Mort-> What's your cmb
12:29:13 <Hydrazine> Currently? 9. Not bad for a level 3.
12:31:42 <Mort-> I have no idea how to rate concentration for special abilities
12:32:00 <Hydrazine> is it SU or SP?
12:32:09 <Mort-> Sla?
12:32:17 <Hydrazine> Then compare it to the actual spell.
12:32:25 <Mort-> After we figure sla. Then move it to su
12:32:47 <Mort-> Though su i think would fit immolation better
12:33:02 <Hydrazine> If its a supernatural ability, its not spell like, and grappling doesn't phase it.
12:35:00 <Hydrazine> For example, if Hoku grappled a paladin, he can lay on hands just fine. For himself anyway.
12:36:35 <Mort-> Ah
12:37:06 <Hydrazine> Clerics channeling is only different because they have to be able to present the holy symbol to do it.
12:37:21 <Mort-> Unless you have a birthmark :d
12:37:28 <Mort-> Even so you have to reach it
12:38:01 <Hydrazine> But a grappled, not pinned cleric, with his holy symbol in hand, can channel just fine.
12:41:02 <Hydrazine> So yeah, I like Hoku. Stunning Pin's really my only complaint.
12:41:31 <Hydrazine> That, and the fact that I had to use a dex focused point buy and awkward feats to make him decent offensive and defensively.
12:41:53 * Mort- likes hoku too
12:42:05 <Mort-> Who ever drinks medicine before they get sick :p
12:42:10 <Mort-> Well mort did
12:44:29 <Mort-> That was funny
12:44:50 <Mort-> About beating the spirit of spider venom
12:48:38 <Hydrazine> The same way you take an antidote before you even get poisoned.
12:53:05 <MekkisScreen> hydra, remind me to have a ring of spell-storing (gaseous form) when dealing with you
12:53:53 <Hydrazine> How is it activated?
12:54:12 <MekkisScreen> verbal (command), I think
12:54:28 <MekkisScreen> could be mental (command)
12:54:44 <Hydrazine> I'll put chokehold higher on my priority list then.
12:54:54 <Mort-> When dealing with casties. Strip them stark naked.
12:55:28 <MekkisScreen> mort's been reading the boards again
12:55:31 <Hydrazine> Howdy, Mekkis.
12:55:36 <MekkisScreen> moin
12:56:02 <Mort-> It appeared in one of the stories i read. The evil sorceror was about to focus his energies on his ring to break free
12:56:05 <Hydrazine> I learned today, Mek, that when making multiple grapple rolls in one round, you only need to succeed one to keep the victim there.
12:56:06 <MekkisScreen> Itzamna will massacre hoku :)
12:56:40 <Mort-> Then the ranger (or as far as i can translate)
12:56:55 <Mort-> Went thank you ill have that. And took the ring off
12:56:57 <Mort-> Vol
12:56:59 <Mort-> Lol
12:57:33 <Mort-> Mek.
12:57:41 <Mort-> That didn't come from the boards
12:57:48 <Mort-> It came from a story book
12:58:47 <Mort-> I don't understand why i don't have bard levels :(
13:00:58 <Hydrazine> Because you're a wizard?
13:03:02 <Mort-> I don't even have wizard levels ffs
13:03:15 <Mort-> Ranger/sorc
13:12:34 <MekkisScreen> I need to read grapple
13:13:09 <MekkisScreen> I still think it's "mostly pointless"
13:13:54 <MekkisScreen> aagainst anyone who is not a full caster
13:14:33 <MekkisScreen> maybe I'm prejudioced byplaying a lot of full casters
13:15:36 <Mort-> It hurts
13:15:36 <MekkisScreen>
13:15:54 <Mort-> Even if you are melee you can't break free
13:17:30 <MekkisScreen> but you can still full-attack
13:19:17 <MekkisScreen> so if you have four claws and a bite....
13:22:39 <Hydrazine> Wrong. Can only full attack one handed.
13:24:14 <Mort-> So i would be down to one bite and a claw
13:24:15 <Hydrazine> And grappled is only a small step away from pinned. Even strong melee don't like pinned.
13:24:31 <Mort-> Next turn i can't attack at all because he tied me up :(
13:26:15 <Mort-> Though xyns get out of grapple free card would just to be scaring her attacker
13:29:51 <MekkisScreen> What?
13:30:02 <MekkisScreen> natural weapons are all one-handed
13:30:14 <MekkisScreen> so you can full attack with each attack
13:30:41 <Mort-> Ya so bite and claw
13:30:50 <MekkisScreen> 4 claws
13:30:51 <Mort-> Instead of bite claw claw
13:31:04 <Mort-> No i only have 3 attacks to begin with
13:31:13 <Mort-> Grapple drops it by 1

14:00:43 * Mort- nibbles the mek
14:01:19 <Hydrazine> Jerus would get smoked by a good grappler.
14:03:50 <Mort-> Thats why you need to wear a cestus
14:04:16 <Mort-> Xyn has a weird defense vs grapplers
14:04:19 <MekkisScreen> I don't see where it drops it by one
14:04:22 <Mort-> Slash back.
14:04:41 <Hydrazine> The part where you only get to use one hand.
14:04:41 <Mort-> And make grappler run
14:05:07 <Mort-> If you're frightened you have to get away from whatever frightened you right?
14:05:09 <Mort-> :p
14:05:11 <MekkisScreen> <?grappled
14:05:11 <diebot> A grappled creature is restrained by a creature, trap, or effect. Grappled creatures cannot move and take a 4 penalty to Dexterity. A grappled creature takes a 2 penalty on all attack rolls and combat maneuver checks, except those made to grapple or escape a grapple. In addition, grappled creatures can take no action
14:05:12 <diebot> that requires two hands to perform. A grappled character who attempts to cast a spell or use a spell-like ability must make a concentration check (DC 10 + grappler's CMB + spell level), or lose the spell. Grappled creatures cannot make attacks of opportunity. // A grappled creature cannot use Stealth to hide from the
14:05:12 <diebot> creature grappling it, even if a special ability, such as hide in plain sight, would normally allow it to do so. If a grappled creature becomes invisible, through a spell or other ability, it gains a +2 circumstance bonus on its CMD to avoid being grappled, but receives no other benefit.
14:05:44 <Hydrazine> " In addition, grappled creatures can take no action
14:05:44 <Hydrazine> <diebot> that requires two hands to perform."

14:10:38 MekkisScreen ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
14:11:43 <Mort-> Oh dear mek
14:12:30 <Hydrazine> Think you're right about cestus. Considering spiked gauntlet instead.
14:14:54 <Hydrazine> Did you know, Mort, that with iterative attacks, if you're holding two weapons, you can use either one without penalty?
14:15:23 <Mort-> Oh!
14:15:53 <Mort-> But you can wear a spiked gauntlet while using your polearm
14:15:55 <Mort-> I think
14:16:12 <Mort-> Its casting that's debatable
14:16:20 <Hydrazine> Aslong as you aren't trying to take more attacks than you're iterative bab allows, you don't suffer twf penalties.
14:16:46 <Mort-> Ok so you wear a spiked gaunt on your left
14:17:04 <Mort-> And use a longsword on your right
14:17:08 <Mort-> Level 5 fighter
14:17:23 DarkDaemon ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
14:17:42 <Mort-> You can slash with your longsword then punch him in the face with spiked gaunt?
14:17:59 <Mort-> Which one gets the -5 bab - your choice?
14:19:41 <Hydrazine> Yes.
14:19:47 <Hydrazine> level 6, Mort.
14:19:53 <Hydrazine> Level 5 is only one attack.
14:22:32 <Mort-> Ah cool!
14:22:57 <Mort-> Nice to learn new things
14:23:48 <Mort-> How many monsters do you think at level 5 and above have a 10 ft reach?
14:24:27 DarkDaemon ([email protected]) has left #d&d (Leaving)
14:24:35 <Mort-> But i think its safe to say at level 5 - they all have range weapons?
14:42:01 <Ballig> Mort-: almost anything that is bigger than medium will have reach
14:42:31 <Mort-> But how many large things do you see past 5?
14:42:38 <Mort-> That's the question.
14:42:42 <Ballig> most if it not all
14:45:01 <Mort-> That justifies big game hunter feat
14:45:19 <Mort-> And makes lunge less useful
14:45:21 Avatar has quit (Quit: Spend social security on games.)
14:46:27 <Ballig> how does it make it less useful
14:47:28 <Mort-> The point of lunge was to hit the monster where he can't hit you aback
14:47:31 <Ballig> lunge would let you walk up, stop just before you would usually provoke an AOO, and then attack them from reach you don't normally possess
14:47:44 <Ballig> also keep in mind that it extends your reach by 5 feet - you could have a reach of 10 feet with a reach weapon, and extend that to 15 with lunge
14:47:46 <Mort-> If they are all large they still get to slap you silly
14:48:22 <Ballig> that's not the POINT of lunge. it's one use of lunge
14:48:37 <Ballig> and is still possible if you are using lunge + reach weapon
14:48:42 <Mort-> Well that was the one i was eyeing
14:48:58 <Mort-> It is pretty unlikely i will use a reach weapon
14:49:58 <Mort-> The -2 for ac will hurt if monster can hit you still
14:50:48 <Ballig> you're never invulnerable
14:50:57 <Ballig> even if you're attacking from reach all they have to do is take a step
14:51:09 <Mort-> Not unless they can fly...
14:51:16 <Mort-> Ill have my wings soon
14:51:33 Avatar ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
15:02:15 <Hydrazine> I don't think I'm all that fond of lunge really.
15:02:26 <Hydrazine> Because it only works on your turn, and limits you to a single attack.
15:02:40 <Mort-> Yeah i think ill probably get a bec de corbin
15:02:49 <Mort-> In the usual tradition
15:02:54 <Hydrazine> Why?
15:02:57 <Hydrazine> For who?
15:02:58 <Mort-> Then poke people from the sky
15:03:01 <Ballig> it doesn't limit you to 1 attack
15:03:06 <Mort-> Because i can fly :p
15:03:15 <Mort-> I believe i can fly
15:03:22 <Mort-> I believe i can touch the sky
15:03:24 <Ballig> in fact the description leaves open the opportunity for multiple attacks
15:03:31 <Mort-> Dream about it every night and day
15:03:40 <Mort-> Spread my wings and fly away
15:04:32 <Mort-> Who else.. hydra..who else :d
15:04:57 <Hydrazine> Crazy witchy magi.
15:05:09 <Hydrazine> Fair enough, Ballig.
15:05:11 * Mort- grows a pair of wings
15:05:23 <Hydrazine> Personal preference then, I guess.
15:05:30 <Mort-> Uh hydra. Are they feathery or bat like
15:05:37 * Hydrazine shrugs.
15:05:45 <Ballig> I don't necessarily like it either, because -2 AC is a bitch of a penalty
15:05:49 <Ballig> but I can see its uses
15:06:07 <Ballig> I think if you want extra reach you're better off enlarging
15:06:18 <Hydrazine> Get alot more reach that way too.
15:06:20 <Mort-> Its one fking round :d
15:06:22 <Mort-> Heh
15:06:31 <Mort-> Sure one day you'll see me fly
15:06:40 <Hydrazine> I think Salvanar's got a pretty cool approach. I'd like to see it in action.
15:06:43 <Mort-> Second round. Wait. Enlarging self!
15:06:50 <Hydrazine> Enlarged Salv sounds pretty dominating.
15:06:55 <Mort-> Third round. Ok lets get to business
15:07:03 <Mort-> He doesn't like enlarge
15:07:20 <Mort-> He figures if 15 ft combat patrol doesn't cover it
15:07:22 <Mort-> Nothing does
15:07:26 <Ballig> the trait for move-action drinking potions, and potion of enlarge
15:07:26 <Ballig> bam
15:07:46 <Mort-> Quick drinker
15:07:52 <Mort-> Still you need pot out
15:08:06 <Ballig> you sure do
15:08:08 <Mort-> Nah
15:08:21 <Mort-> I shall take a bec de corbin
15:08:32 <Mort-> And poke people from the sky
15:08:42 <Hydrazine> And get shot down
15:08:56 <Mort-> That one yes
15:09:06 <Mort-> But take 3 attacks or take 1
15:09:13 <Mort-> Id rather take 1
15:09:34 <Ballig> so you're investing in the Fly skill?
15:09:42 <Mort-> Sure!
15:09:48 <Ballig> and why is it 3 vs 1 attack?
15:09:52 <Ballig> you can get multiple ranged attacks
15:10:04 <Ballig> in fact, you can get multiple ranged attacks easier than you can get multiple melee attacks
15:10:06 <Mort-> Bite claw claw
15:10:27 <Ballig> anyway, by the time you can fly, expect your enemies to have a way around that
15:10:35 <Mort-> Its harder to add damage mods on a ranged weapon unless you use throwing
15:11:28 <Hydrazine> Hey Ballig, do you say 'free weapon draw as part of a movement action' could apply to rope?
15:11:29 <Mort-> At 5 i can fly
15:11:37 <Ballig> nope
15:11:51 <Ballig> unless you have a rope sheath, then I might consider it
15:11:57 <Hydrazine> But its a weaponlike object in the right hands!
15:12:06 <Mort-> There is such a thing?
15:12:11 <Mort-> rope sheathe?
15:12:13 <MekkisScreen> or the equipment trick feath
15:12:15 <Ballig> no :p
15:12:18 <MekkisScreen> feat*
15:12:25 <Hydrazine> A whip's a weapon, with a rather ropelike shape.
15:12:50 <Mort-> Sorry hydra. I wouldn't recommend that you can put a rope in a spring loaded wrist sheathe
15:13:02 <Hydrazine> I would agree with this.
15:13:05 <Mort-> That one stretches my imagination even
15:13:19 <Ballig> a whip has a handle
15:13:39 <Mort-> You grab one end of the rope
15:13:44 <Hydrazine> But I don't see why its unreasonable to have a 20ft length of rope hung through your belt, for easy access to those who like roping stuff.
15:13:46 <Mort-> Its got a handle too!
15:13:58 <Mort-> Only problem is the length
15:14:04 <Ballig> how do you attach it yet allow it to remain easy access
15:14:13 <Ballig> is it velcroed to your belt
15:14:28 <Hydrazine> Coil it up, fold the coil in half over your belt.
15:14:37 <Mort-> Weapon cords!
15:14:42 * Mort- gets creative
15:14:59 <MekkisScreen> it IS your belt!
15:15:04 <Ballig> I don't see a readily available way to attach it so that it doesn't fall off from normal movement, while remaining easy enough to detach as to be a free action
15:15:11 <Hydrazine> Hang it on a sword pommel.
15:15:19 <Ballig> ha, through your pant belt loops?
15:15:23 <MekkisScreen> yeah
15:15:32 <MekkisScreen> you've seen judo belts, right?
15:15:39 <Hydrazine> They're like 12 feet long.
15:15:40 <MekkisScreen> you could tie someone up with one easily
15:15:46 <Ballig> I want to see the aftermath
15:15:48 <MekkisScreen> and remove one easily
15:15:51 <MekkisScreen> heh
15:16:07 <Hydrazine> YOu don't think hanging a coil over a belt is feasable?
15:16:11 <MekkisScreen> the aftermath?
15:16:20 <Hydrazine> Find an extension cord or something and a belt, give it a shot.
15:16:21 <MekkisScreen> a +2 bonus to escape artist checks
15:16:27 <MekkisScreen> (of course, you're naked after that)
15:16:41 <Hydrazine> Or just get pants that fit.
15:16:41 <Ballig> yeah, I want to see how he deals with his pants falling down mid-move
15:17:04 <Mort-> Its funny!
15:17:15 * Mort- giggles
15:17:33 <Hydrazine> When I was in uniform, I had to wear a belt. Even though the tailors sized my pants too tight, and too high...
15:17:58 <Hydrazine> Just because you're wearing a belt doesn't mean your pants have to be loose.
15:18:12 DarkDaemon ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
15:18:17 <Mort-> Oh your wearing a rope belt?g
15:18:19 <Mort-> !
15:18:26 <Mort-> That's so cool!
15:18:37 <Hydrazine> No, I still rather just hang it over a belt. I don't see what unreasonable about this.
15:18:43 <Hydrazine> Or hang a coil over a sword handle.
15:18:59 <Ballig> because if it's that easy to remove, it'll come off from normal movement
15:19:32 <Ballig> and by this point you will have people asking "well, why can't I remove a potion as a free action too?" etc
15:19:37 <Mort-> Sword handle might fall off
15:19:54 <Mort-> But hanging it over your belt to me is fine
15:19:58 <Ballig> see, we're not talking about quick draw here where you're willing to allow a bit of flexibility because someone has actually taken a feat
15:20:03 <Ballig> we're talking about everyone with a +1 BAB
15:20:27 <Hydrazine> Does quick draw change your attitude in this?
15:20:33 <Ballig> it may
15:20:37 <Hydrazine> Fair enough.
15:21:16 <Mort-> Then hoku gets quickdraw? :p
15:21:31 <Hydrazine> Do you think a tied up spellcaster suffers concentration checks, assuming hes casting something he doesn't need to move for?
15:22:24 <Mort-> Oh mekkis
15:22:51 <Mort-> I wonder how myz casts anything with material components with shadow projection on
15:23:02 <Mort-> I think its weird
15:23:32 <Mort-> If you can't touch real things how do you take out your feather for hideous laughter
15:24:55 <Mort-> Well unless you have eschew materials feat. Then nothing to say
15:33:00 <Avatar> I thought he wasn't using shadow projection after he saw how ridiculous overpowered it was
15:33:15 <Avatar> am I thinking of a different spell
15:33:46 <Mort-> He used it before
15:33:58 <Mort-> I was thinking on how to melee with shadow projection on
15:34:00 <Mort-> For fun
15:34:03 <Avatar> yeah, in one scenario, to see how well it worked
15:34:17 <Avatar> is this the one where you become a shadow
15:34:18 <Mort-> But realized i need to be at least level 10 to pull it off
15:34:32 <Mort-> I think he did it on purpose
15:34:46 <Mort-> I was thinking on how to melee with shadow projection on
15:35:13 <Mort-> Was a nice academic exercise
15:37:27 <Mort-> It involved a ghost touch weapon
15:37:49 <Mort-> Anyway i do like thinking about these kind of things
15:39:53 <Mort-> Sometimes its just good to throw effectiveness to the winds
15:40:06 <Mort-> And think on how to make something work
15:44:18 DarkDaemon has quit (EOF from client)
15:45:59 <Hydrazine> you don't see counterspelling much.
15:47:37 DarkDaemon ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
15:48:09 <Mort-> I don't like counter spell
15:48:16 <Mort-> You are doing a defensive action
15:48:26 <Mort-> In order to win you need to do offensive
15:49:54 DarkDaemon ([email protected]) has left #d&d (Leaving)
15:57:26 <Mort-> You have 5 fights in a pfs scenario
15:57:34 <Mort-> The bad guy only has one
15:58:09 <Mort-> What are the chances he has more Spells then you
16:01:11 DarkDaemon ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
16:11:26 <S711> Have you read the Game of Thrones books?
16:11:50 <Mort-> Bet hydrazine has
16:12:00 <S711> I think I'll read them.
16:12:03 <MekkisScreen> Mort-: keep in mind that the advantage of counterspell is that if's one character's actions against the enemy's actions
16:12:10 <MekkisScreen> generally you will outnumber the enemy
16:12:13 <MekkisScreen> which is a good thing
16:12:59 <Mort-> Not everyone can counter spell
16:13:06 <Mort-> You have 4 people in a party
16:13:14 <Mort-> How many will be prepared for countering
16:13:32 <Mort-> Fighter? Can't counterspell.
16:13:55 <Mort-> Divine class? Can't counterspell i should think?
16:14:06 <MekkisScreen> plus, most counterspell readied actions should be phrased like:
16:15:40 <MekkisScreen> When (he starts casting)
16:15:40 <MekkisScreen> If (I make my spellcraft check and can counter it)
16:15:40 <MekkisScreen> counter it
16:15:40 <MekkisScreen> Else
16:15:40 <MekkisScreen> hit him with a scorching ray/disintegrate/fireball so he loses the spell
16:16:23 <MekkisScreen> worst case scenario, you're still damaging him
16:17:18 <Mort-> Yeah that's my idea of counter spell
16:17:18 <Mort-> Haha
16:17:29 <Mort-> The second method
16:17:35 <Mort-> Hit him with magic missiles!
16:18:21 <MekkisScreen> plus, while you're countering his spell, your allies can do other things to make themselves useful
16:19:25 <Mort-> Nah if i counter its by evocation
16:19:30 <Mort-> Like magic missiles
16:20:50 <Hydrazine> I've read them, S711 .
16:21:30 <Hydrazine> Lengthy, but currently 3rd on my list of 'big series books I'm waiting for the next book of'
16:21:44 <S711> Hydrazine: Did you read before watching the series?
16:21:50 <Hydrazine> Yes.
16:22:06 <Hydrazine> I started reading them 3 or 4 years ago.
16:22:16 <S711> I'll do that too, read first. Just to see if it affects the way I'll see the series.
16:22:22 <Hydrazine> It will.
16:22:30 <Mort-> Was it in song of fire and ice?
16:22:31 <Hydrazine> I've seen all of first season and some of second.
16:22:40 <Mort-> That there was someone chasing cats.h
16:22:41 <Mort-> ?
16:22:46 <Mort-> Or game of thrones
16:22:51 <Hydrazine> Same thing, Mort.
16:22:59 <Mort-> Oh
16:23:06 <Mort-> So the cat chaser
16:23:07 <Hydrazine> Game of Thrones is the first book, and the name of the TV series.
16:23:09 <Mort-> Was tugdpd?
16:23:12 <Mort-> There?
16:23:22 <Hydrazine> Song of Fire and Ice, is the title of the.. saga?
16:23:27 <Hydrazine> Yes.
16:23:29 <Mort-> Oh dear
16:23:33 <Mort-> I didn't read it
16:23:36 <Mort-> So I'm clueless
16:23:45 <Mort-> Except about cat chasing!
16:24:19 <Hydrazine> The cat chaser is one of my favorite characters.
16:24:46 <S711> I've tried .epub formats lately.
16:24:58 <S711> Not bad, and it's kind of cool not to see the page number.
16:25:02 <S711> For whatever reason.
16:25:16 <Hydrazine> I actually own the first four in paper.
16:25:37 <Hydrazine> But I think reading the last on my kindle was a job easier. Book 5 is damn heavy.
16:25:38 * Mort- claps paws
16:25:44 <Mort-> I chase cats too!
16:26:35 <S711> I was thinking, the author of those books, they say he fleshed out the world and the politics well. I just wonder what he'd be like as a DM.
16:26:45 <Hydrazine> Funny you mention that.
16:26:50 <Hydrazine> I was just reading one of his other books.
16:27:16 <Hydrazine> And in the author's notes after, he talks about how he used to DM SuperWorld.
16:27:32 <Hydrazine> And that it was a big part of that book.
16:27:38 <S711> Oh, he plays D&D?
16:27:45 <Hydrazine> He atleast used to.
16:27:49 <Hydrazine> Don't know if he still does.
16:27:51 <S711> I see.
16:28:01 <Hydrazine> He mentions too, that he was DMing for novelists.
16:28:07 <Hydrazine> Imagine the storytelling in that game.
16:28:10 <S711> Yea.
16:28:53 <Hydrazine> Book is called Wild Cards, if you're curious.
16:29:04 <Hydrazine> Just finished it the other day. Now I'm on Only Revolutions.
16:29:11 <Hydrazine> Until it either drives me nuts or I finish it.
16:29:19 <Hydrazine> Odds are on driving me nuts.
16:29:39 * Mort- likes stories.
16:30:30 <S711> Maybe I have it, if it's in the .epub library under his name or whatever.
16:30:37 <Hydrazine> You may.
16:30:39 <S711> I just torrented some libraries, the series are there.
16:30:47 * Hydrazine nods.
16:31:06 <Hydrazine> I don't think you could do Only Revolutions on an e-reader well.
16:31:15 <Mort-> The game of thrones looks like a big book
16:31:22 <Mort-> Not sure if I'm up to it
16:31:24 <S711> Why not?
16:31:34 <Hydrazine> Because you have to read it from both sides together.
16:31:35 <Mort-> Wheel of time drove me nuts
16:31:45 <Mort-> Could read sword of truth thoughg
16:31:57 <Hydrazine> "Only Revolutions is printed in such a way that both covers appear to be the front of the book. The side with the green cover is the story as told by Sam, and the side with the gold cover is the story as told by Hailey. Every page contains upside-down text in the bottom margin, which is actually later pages of the opposite volume. For example, the first page of Hailey's story contains the last several lines of Sam's story, apparently upside down.
16:31:57 <Hydrazine> When you reach that page while reading Sam's story, those lines will appear to be the only right-side-up text on the page."
16:32:15 <Mort-> Uh lol
16:32:19 <Hydrazine> I've read Sword of Truth. But Wheel of Time bored the shit out of me.
16:32:22 <S711> Someone mentioned Wheel of Time on another server, I've been meaning to read that too, but I never read things in the end.
16:32:30 <Mort-> Wheel of time i don't understand
16:32:39 <Tashes> i started reading wheel of time
16:32:49 <Tashes> miles sent me it for my phone
16:32:51 <Brunius> Wheel of Time is great
16:32:56 <Tashes> i'm like four pages in and keep getting distracted
16:34:08 <Hydrazine> Also, the colors are a part of Mr. Danielewski's work. Just is.
16:37:16 <Mort-> Don't like it
16:37:22 <Mort-> Can read forgotten realms
16:38:28 DarkDaemon_ ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
16:38:45 DarkDaemon_ ([email protected]) has left #d&d (Leaving)
16:40:17 <Hydrazine> Eh, I don't read much forgotten realms.
16:40:53 DarkDaemon has quit (Ping timeout: 181 seconds)
16:47:44 <Mort-> Heh
16:47:54 * Mort- likes black meows
16:49:26 <Mort-> Anyway i sort of had an uncomfortable day
16:49:36 <Mort-> Spicy stuff and me don't mix.
16:49:49 <Mort-> Last night i had chilli crab
16:50:13 <Mort-> This morning i failed a fort save and ended up on the loo ><
16:50:21 <Mort-> Couple of times
16:51:28 Avatar` ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
16:51:29 Avatar has quit (EOF from client)
17:03:00 Avatar` is now known as Avatar
17:16:52 <Ballig> so didn't need to know that
17:45:52 <Hydrazine> Hmm.
17:46:02 <Hydrazine> So the transitions between sides in this book get faster as you go.
17:46:15 Steven ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
17:46:21 <Steven> sup sup sup
17:46:25 <Steven> hows everyone doin tonights?
17:46:30 <Hydrazine> I'm reading a crazy ass book.
17:47:11 <Steven> Solid! I got Dominate Person'ed by a succubus and made to do remedial tasks while the rest of my party got their shit pushed back.
17:47:13 <Steven> lol
17:47:49 <Steven> Took me 3 days to get undominated
17:47:53 <Hydrazine> Ouch.
17:48:14 <Steven> meanwhile i was in Jail, and kept raging trying to break out
17:48:24 <Steven> finally they just tied me to the bed.
17:48:39 <Steven> and then i finally made my will save
17:49:23 <Steven> the monk character tripped, grappled, and pinned me after the succubus told me to finally kill my companions.
17:49:39 <Hydrazine> Nice.
17:49:54 <Hydrazine> My monk got through an entire scenario without pinning anything!
17:50:11 <Steven> yeah, NOBODY decided to Sense Motive on me that i was acting strange by walking out of the room while my compatriots were fighting
17:50:28 <Steven> and they had protection from evil prepared
17:51:08 <Steven> but nah fuck that! we gonna let Me go and lock doors, and pray over graves
17:51:32 <Steven> and i nearly killed both the paladin and the monk once the succubus told me to kill them.
17:51:39 <Steven> had them both down to 15hp
17:51:49 <Steven> my minimum damage is 15 lol
17:52:11 <Steven> Crit on a 15-20 w/ a reach weapon
17:52:17 <Hydrazine> Salv?
17:52:19 <Steven> Yup
17:52:22 <Steven> Level 6 now
17:52:29 <Hydrazine> Gettin big.
17:52:32 <Steven> Yup.
17:52:37 <Steven> He has combat Patrol now.
17:52:44 <Hydrazine> I want to see him in action
17:53:02 <Steven> while combat expertising and power attacking +11 to hit
17:53:11 <Hydrazine> I think you're approach to combat with him is interesting, I wanna see it in action.
17:54:14 <Steven> 15ft combat patrol area.
17:54:32 <Steven> doesnt seem OP at all w/ 4 AOO
17:55:17 <Steven> but seriously, +11/6 for 1d10+14 Crit 15-20 x2
17:55:28 <Steven> OH dip my damage went up.... 1d10+15
17:55:43 <Steven> i forgot to calculate in Weapon training
17:56:55 <Steven> oh nevermind, i did calculate it in
17:57:07 <Steven> good good
17:58:05 <Steven> But yeah once i came back in and starting attacking my team mates, they were like jesus why do you do so much damage!
17:58:24 <Steven> and i was like, cause im critting 25% of the time on you guys.
17:58:28 <Hydrazine> Duh? I'm a fighter?
17:58:46 <Mort-> I am going to try to prevent xyn from ever getting dominate
17:58:47 <Mort-> D
17:59:05 <Steven> 15+11=26.... your ac is 25.... i confirm, 2d10+28...
17:59:57 <Steven> !throw 2d10+28
17:59:57 <diebot> Steven, 2d10+28: [2d10=8,6] 42
18:00:14 <Steven> YUP seems good
18:02:30 <Steven> Buying myself a Clear Spindle to put in my Wayfiner
18:02:35 <Steven> wayfinder even
18:02:52 <Steven> 4k for no more mind control on Salvanar
18:03:46 <Steven> My priorites went Good Weapon>Decent Armor>Random Items
18:05:16 <Steven> So now i have +1 Keen Fauchard, +1 Mithril Mountain Armor, Ring of Feather fall, and a Wayfinder with a clear spindle in it.
18:06:43 <Avatar> I don't know how you guys talk about the best equipment and styles of combat 24/7
18:07:20 <Hydrazine> You wound me. Earlier we were discussing literature.
18:07:32 <Hydrazine> Particularly, the baffling qualities of the stuff I'm currently reading.
18:07:34 <Avatar> haha
18:07:51 <Steven> Yeah, if you would like we could talk about something else
18:08:00 <Steven> However, You must pick the topic
18:08:11 <Hydrazine> The entire inside of each cover is just text, in circular patterns, printed so you need a mirror to read it.
18:09:03 <Hydrazine> I just learned that some serious fanatics have counted the word total and are pondering if the cover text is the remainer of whats needed to equal the square of 360.
18:10:31 <Steven> sure you dont want to talk about equipment avatar?
18:11:24 <Hydrazine> Hey Steven, I'm considering taking rope tricks on my monk, and taking hostiles from standing to trussed up like a christmas present in one round.
18:12:18 <Steven> MEH... Im not real fond of rope tricks
18:14:15 <Steven> !roll 1d20+5
18:14:15 <dicebot> Steven, 1d20+5: [1d20=19] 24
18:15:55 <Steven> so, one scenario Salvanar is going to be level 7
18:19:26 <Steven> nevermind my bad two more
18:19:28 <Steven> then he is 7
18:19:32 <Steven> AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHh yeah
18:20:57 <Hydrazine> Take a look at this, Steven.
18:20:58 <Hydrazine> http://thealexandrian.net/wordpress/587/roleplaying-games/dd-calibrating-your-expectations-2
18:25:40 <Steven> yeah im not reading all of that
18:25:54 <Steven> What is it you want me to pay attention to specifically
18:26:58 <Hydrazine> Nevermind.
18:28:34 <Steven> You cant point me at once specific like "this is what i want you to see"?
18:28:54 <Steven> cause seriously man.... this scroll bar is nto funny
18:34:14 <Steven> Dude this article is pretty dry
18:35:23 <Avatar> don't read it don't read it!
18:36:14 <Steven> i already started! /cry
18:43:25 <Steven> okay so its not a bad article, im now wondering why you wanted me to read this
18:45:31 <Hydrazine> Maybe just to give you an idea of how amazing your level 6 fighter is.
18:47:49 <Steven> I already knew
18:48:15 <Steven> My level 12 Captain Ausk Stormbrow is like a walking Demigod of Golarion
18:50:03 <Steven> The Hurrican King, Ruler of the Shackles Isle and Ausk probably hang out together and gamble and wench
18:50:22 <Steven> Because they are both Bad Asses
18:50:33 <Mort-> I didn't think at 6 you can get dominated
18:50:52 <Mort-> Again.. we uptiered sniper. Should have guessed
18:51:01 <Steven> Yeah mort, Dominate Person works on any HD person
18:51:09 <Mort-> Ah well
18:51:35 <Mort-> And people think I'm nuts when i talk about clear spindle ioun stones ^^
18:51:44 * Mort- sighs
18:51:58 <Avatar> we think you're nuts in general
18:52:06 <Steven> Yeah... im with avatar on that one.
18:52:11 <Mort-> Why?
18:52:20 <Avatar> do you have a tail?
18:52:21 * Mort- gives innocent look
18:52:23 <Steven> Easy answer? You're a woman.
18:52:26 <Mort-> Sure!
18:52:30 <Mort-> I have a tail
18:52:35 <Mort-> And i wouldn't be lying
18:52:37 <Avatar> no you don't
18:53:41 <Steven> Mort you have a vestigial tail?
18:54:01 <Mort-> I have a tail
18:54:03 <Mort-> Really
18:54:19 <Mort-> I seriously have a tail
18:54:50 <Steven> Spina Bifida?
18:55:24 <Steven> I dont know why i know this... Fuck you random information dump!
18:55:35 <Mort-> No
18:57:29 <Steven> Your tail has cartilage and/or vertabrae in it and your parents didn't get you corrective surgery to fix it?
18:58:39 <Hydrazine> You're at 2 of 20 questions, for those of you keeping track at home.
18:59:10 <Steven> Oh dip only 18 more questions to figure out how exactly mort has a til.
18:59:13 <Steven> tail even
19:00:43 <Mort-> No :p
19:02:04 <Steven> Is your tail a Natural part of your PHYSICAL Body
19:03:25 <Mort-> Its certainly part of me
19:03:33 <Mort-> Its physical
19:03:57 <Hydrazine> Yes or no answers, Mort.
19:04:12 <Hydrazine> Judge says yes.
19:04:14 <Hydrazine> 3.
19:04:38 <Steven> She did not answer the question
19:05:48 <Steven> Natural part means your body grew it on its own with no outside influences as per the instructions in your genetic code.
19:07:21 <Mort-> Yes
19:07:26 <Mort-> That's true!
19:09:21 <Steven> How long is it?
19:09:35 <Mort-> Not very to be honest
19:09:35 <Hydrazine> Yes/no questions.
19:09:49 <Steven> no problem hydra...
19:10:04 <Steven> Is it longer then 6 inches?
19:12:37 <Mort-> Yes
19:12:42 <Hydrazine> 4.
19:13:06 <Steven> Is it longer then 2 feet?
19:19:11 <Steven> wonder whats taking so long....
19:19:43 <Steven> im thinking shes trying to figure out how long 2 feet is... its 61cm
19:23:42 <Mort-> 61cm?
19:25:23 <Steven> I asked if your Tail was longer then 61cm
19:25:31 <Steven> 2 feet
19:25:50 <Mort-> Checking
19:26:31 <Steven> hey hydra how old is mort?
19:26:38 <Mort-> No
19:26:42 <Hydrazine> Bit younger than me I think.
19:26:51 <Hydrazine> 5.
19:27:02 <Hydrazine> 5 questions, not Mort is 5 years old.
19:28:46 <Steven> okay, so far we have Longer then 6 inches, less then 2 feet, Natural part of her Genetic code, NOT Spina Bifida.
19:28:59 <Hydrazine> Good review.
19:29:00 * Mort- grins
19:29:29 <Steven> Is it a true tail?
19:30:02 <Hydrazine> Vague question, I say.
19:30:41 <Steven> no, it has to do with if the tail forms at the bottom of the spinal column as an extention of the tailbone/coccyx
19:30:56 <Hydrazine> See? More specific.
19:31:14 <Steven> such a growth is considered to be a True Tail
19:31:21 <Mort-> Tails are tails
19:31:47 <Steven> Negative mort.
19:31:55 <Hydrazine> So, to rephrase.
19:32:09 <Hydrazine> Does the tail form at the base of the spinal column?
19:32:14 <Hydrazine> Take it away, Mort.
19:32:19 <Steven> that is not what i asked hydra
19:32:27 <Hydrazine> Then you clarify it.
19:32:46 * Mort- is puzzled and doesnt understand
19:32:58 <Steven> I asked if it was a true tail. Meaning one that formed at the bottom of the Spinal column as an extention of the tailbone/coccyx
19:33:41 <Mort-> Are you asking if it formed at the bottom of the spinal column?
19:34:19 <Steven> That is part of it, Being that it would form out of the tailbone/coccyx.
19:34:34 <Mort-> No.
19:34:39 <Hydrazine> Six.
19:34:48 <Steven> Is it a Genetic Abnormality.
19:34:53 <Mort-> No
19:35:16 <Hydrazine> Steven, I possess photographic evidence to be released upon the conclusion of the game.
19:35:17 <Hydrazine> Seven.
19:35:26 <Steven> Thats cool.
19:37:13 <Hydrazine> Feel free to proceed.
19:39:51 <Steven> Does the 'tail' contain blood vessels
19:39:58 <Mort-> No
19:40:06 <Hydrazine> Eight.
19:40:08 <Steven> Is it Cancerous?
19:40:37 <Mort-> No
19:40:46 <Hydrazine> Nine.
19:42:17 <Steven> Is it a pseudotail?
19:42:32 <Mekkis> what's a pseudotail?
19:43:20 <Mort-> Yeah
19:43:29 <Mort-> I don't understand
19:43:41 <Steven> A tail that is not an extention of the Tailbone, usually formed from cartilage, lipoma and glioma
19:44:04 <Steven> Glioma is a type of tumor that starts in the brain or spine from glial cells
19:44:08 <Hydrazine> So, in the form of a question?
19:44:48 <Mort-> I really don't get it
19:44:56 <Steven> and lipoma is a benign tumor composed of adipose(body fat)
19:45:08 <Mort-> You are just confusing me
19:45:09 <Steven> Is it a pseudotail is my question
19:45:23 <Mort-> What is a pseudotail
19:45:30 <Mort-> Ah those things
19:45:40 <Mort-> But its neither of all those things
19:45:48 <Mort-> Wait
19:45:48 <Hydrazine> Ten.
19:45:52 <Mort-> Let me re read
19:46:08 <Hydrazine> Your answer is correct, Mort.
19:46:13 <Mort-> It is?
19:46:14 <Mort-> Ok
19:46:34 <Mort-> Its not extension of a tail bone definitely
19:46:46 <Mort-> Nor any kind of tumor
19:46:51 <Hydrazine> Don't give further details.
19:46:51 <Steven> her answer is its not a psuedotail, correct hydra
19:46:59 <Mort-> K
19:47:07 <Hydrazine> Correct, Steven.
19:47:10 <Steven> I already know its not a tumor, i asked if it was cancerous
19:47:25 <Mekkis> tumors aren't always cancerous
19:47:38 <Steven> true
19:47:54 <Steven> i am about to deal with the noncancerous ones rightnow
19:48:40 <Steven> Is it a benign Tumor?
19:48:47 <Mort-> No
19:48:50 <Hydrazine> Eleven.
19:49:13 <Mort-> First i brew and then i bake
19:49:27 <Mort-> Tomorrow the queens own child ill take
19:49:35 <Mort-> This is a game she can never win
19:49:39 <Steven> When you were birthed, Were you born with the tail.
19:49:45 <Mort-> Hydra - can you finish it?
19:49:47 <Mort-> No
19:49:51 <Hydrazine> IF you wish.
19:49:53 <Hydrazine> Twelve.
19:53:09 <Steven> hmmmm..... So, we are at its not tumorous, cancerous, she wasnt born with it, its not spina bifida, not a true OR pseudo tail, its 6 inches to 2 feet long, is not supported by blood vessels, not a genetic abnormality, and somehow its natually part of its genetic structure.
19:53:32 <Hydrazine> I agree.
19:53:36 <Mort-> Wow you sound like a doctor
19:53:44 <Hydrazine> Dr. Steven.
19:53:49 <Mekkis> psychologist
19:53:58 <Mort-> Hydra likes medicine :p
19:54:12 <Mort-> Pass him antitoxin! :p
19:54:27 * Mort- giggles
19:54:54 <Hydrazine> Hey, a +5 to fort saves is nothing to laugh at.
19:55:04 <Hydrazine> Especially when you're thinking, "I'm probably going to get poisoned."
19:55:09 <Mort-> Mekkis. Want to join in? :p
19:55:10 <Mort-> I know
19:55:19 <Mort-> I used the same clause on mort
19:55:21 <Brunius> Halflings don't need antitoxin!
19:55:30 <Avatar> and then they die
19:55:33 <Mort-> Sewers? Glup antiplague!
19:55:47 <Mort-> But yeah. We are going to prove i have a tail.
19:55:48 <Brunius> You guys have spent like 200gp on antitoxin, and Kaleb has spent none
19:55:49 <Steven> is it comprised wholely of Homo sapien DNA
19:55:57 <Brunius> And he is still alive
19:55:57 <Mekkis> at least they don't die as often as humans
19:55:59 <Mort-> Hydra already has the evidence
19:56:00 <Mort-> Yes
19:56:03 <Brunius> Ergo, one does not need antitoxin
19:56:12 <Avatar> kaleb is just ballsie
19:56:16 <Hydrazine> Thirteen.
19:56:17 <Steven> Would your parents agree that you have a tail?
19:56:50 <Avatar> are you guys still talking about the tail thing
19:56:55 <Avatar> that was like an hour ago
19:56:59 <Steven> Yes, we are playing 20 questions
19:57:06 <Avatar> mort: where are the photos
19:57:12 <Hydrazine> I have it.
19:57:19 <Avatar> and?
19:57:35 <Hydrazine> It shall be presented at the conclusion of the game.
19:58:49 <Hydrazine> Mort?
19:58:56 <Mekkis> Brunius, but Kaleb's had 6000gp spent on a raise :)
19:59:04 <Brunius> Nope
19:59:08 <Brunius> PP
19:59:14 <Mekkis> really?
19:59:18 <Brunius> Yeah
19:59:20 <Mort-> Yes
19:59:21 <Avatar> not from poison though
19:59:23 <Mekkis> I thought someone paid for it for him
19:59:29 <Brunius> Oh yeah
19:59:29 <Hydrazine> Fourteen.
19:59:30 <Avatar> or was this another time
19:59:49 <Brunius> Yeah, you're right.
20:00:24 <Brunius> That wasn't from poison, though
20:00:43 <Mekkis> yes
20:00:49 <Steven> I am willing to end the game now. I do not believe she has a tail.
20:00:54 <Mekkis> it was from a rogue doing what's expected of him
20:01:03 <Hydrazine> Steven concedes defeat!
20:01:11 <Hydrazine> You ready? You're gonna feel stupid.
20:01:20 <Steven> No. Medically its impossible for her to have a Tail with the information she has given me.
20:01:24 <Brunius> Trying to get a flank and failing miserably?
20:01:38 <Mekkis> Steven, are you sure
20:01:52 <Steven> Yes.
20:01:58 <Hydrazine> http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f220/ookichinpoko/IMG239.jpg
20:02:19 <Brunius> I don't see a tail.
20:02:21 <Steven> If you are refering to her hair that is not a tail.
20:02:31 <Hydrazine> Bounce this against the questions you asked.
20:02:45 <Avatar> I'll bounce it against the fact there is no tail
20:02:58 <Hydrazine> Its clearly a ponytail.
20:03:11 <Avatar> I think we all know that she didn't mean a ponytail
20:03:21 <Hydrazine> Her parents would call it so.
20:03:22 <Mort-> I said i had a tail
20:03:23 <Avatar> I had a ponytail a month ago
20:03:26 <Avatar> I never would have called it a tail
20:03:32 <Mort-> Its still a tail
20:03:39 <Avatar> it's a ponytail
20:03:41 <Hydrazine> Its made of human DNA.
20:03:45 <Mekkis> but there wasn't the question of whether Avatar would have called it one
20:03:46 <Mekkis> :)
20:03:53 <Hydrazine> Which includes the word tail in it.
20:04:04 <Avatar> well you can make up names for anything you want
20:04:06 <Mort-> Lol
20:04:07 <Avatar> that doesn't mean that's what it is
20:04:11 <Mort-> It is a tail
20:04:16 <Avatar> it's a ponytail
20:04:17 <Mekkis> Mort-, we'll make you lawful evil sooner or later :)
20:04:23 <Mort-> Lol
20:04:27 <Mort-> Seriously?
20:04:30 <Brunius> Look, I call my arm a horn!
20:04:31 <Steven> If we really want to split the hair... see what i did there. She gave me faulty information.
20:04:35 <Brunius> Ergo, it is a horn
20:04:39 <Brunius> I have a horn
20:04:40 <Mort-> I need to thank hydra for it though
20:04:40 <Mekkis> now... where did I leave my Qt build environment
20:05:02 <Mort-> The closest thing you have to a horn is actually your nails
20:05:10 <Mort-> Keratin
20:05:12 <Hydrazine> Its very clearly a ponytail. Dictionaries and other such references about words and the meaning of them, support this.
20:05:37 <Hydrazine> ponyTAIL clearly includes the word TAIL.
20:05:49 <Hydrazine> The questions were answered correctly. Agree, Steven?
20:06:13 <Avatar> I think you were playing different games
20:06:37 <Steven> negative.
20:07:09 <Mort-> Hydra would poke me out if i lied?
20:07:18 <Hydrazine> Which question do you say was not answered correctly?
20:07:21 <Steven> I asked if it grew naturally as part of her genetic code.
20:07:30 <Mort-> I don't understand a lot of biological terms you used
20:07:32 <Steven> Her hair grows naturally, but does not naturally form into a pony tail!
20:07:32 <Mort-> It does
20:07:40 <Mort-> Doesn't your hair grow everyday?
20:08:10 <Hydrazine> From the perfection of hindsight, how would you have answered that question?
20:08:31 <Hydrazine> Understanding that hair is indeed part of the genetic code and growing, but not precisely in the shape desired.
20:08:48 <Steven> I said, Is your tail a natural part of your physical body, you asked for clarifaction, so i said natural part means your body grew it on its own with no outside influence as per instruction in your genetic code.
20:09:26 <Mort-> To say my tail does not grow would be lying too
20:09:30 <Mort-> Since it does..
20:09:35 <Steven> outside influence would include you forming it into said structure, and then keeping it in that structure with the scrunchy
20:10:32 <Hydrazine> Then I apologize for allowing a faulty answer into the game, though I hope you can understand my dilemma over the true and false aspects of it
20:10:43 <Steven> I completely understand Hydra.
20:10:55 <Hydrazine> Thank you.
20:10:57 <Mort-> :p
20:11:01 <Hydrazine> Have fun playing atleast?
20:11:09 <Steven> I, and im sure avatar, would appreciate you informing mort that she does in fact, NOT have a tail.
20:11:20 <Mort-> Lol
20:11:27 <Mort-> I still say i have a tail.
20:11:35 <Mort-> A ponytail!
20:11:48 <Steven> Yes, it no longer matters though mort. We have proven you do not have a tail.
20:12:29 <Steven> Hydra, would you do the honors?
20:12:43 <Hydrazine> We've proven that she doesn't have the sort of tail you were looking for. Though she does have a ponytail. When she chooses to anyway.
20:13:01 <Avatar> how much is she paying you hydrazine
20:13:19 <Steven> Alright. So now that I've won. I am going to eat a victory cupcake.
20:13:37 <Avatar> you and your victory cupcakes
20:14:04 * Steven gives avatar a cupcake made up of digital 1's and 0's
20:14:19 <Steven> You an of course join me in the devouring of victory cupcakes!
20:14:26 <Hydrazine> Better than giving him one made of digital 2s and -1s. That'd just taste funny.
20:14:41 <Steven> and be a coding nightmare...
20:15:00 <Hydrazine> I can do subtraction in binary.
20:15:13 <Mort-> Ew
20:15:28 <Hydrazine> You can also count notably higher on your fingers by using binary.
20:16:06 <Mekkis> you can count even higher in ternary
20:16:16 <Steven> I can count notably higher with a calculator....
20:16:36 <Mekkis> I can't count with a calculator
20:16:46 <Mort-> Mekkis. What makes you think i can be lawful evil someday?
20:17:08 <Mekkis> your dancing around the truth is commendable :)
20:17:19 <Mort-> Oh
20:17:28 <Mort-> Thanks mekkis!
20:17:35 * Hydrazine ponders.
20:17:37 * Mort- hugs mekkis
20:17:47 <Hydrazine> I am now trying to work out how I make my fingers work in ternary.
20:17:59 <Mort-> I'm sure hydra can le better then i though!
20:18:10 <Steven> okay.... for you people who know math....
20:18:13 <Steven> ready?
20:18:14 <Mort-> Insufficient maths to comprehend such an act
20:18:18 <Steven> ∞!
20:18:28 <Steven> bwahahahahah
20:18:31 <Mort-> Sum of infinity?
20:18:35 <Steven> YUP!
20:18:36 <Hydrazine> Probably takes more practice, but it does work.
20:18:47 <Hydrazine> Just not used to it yet.
20:18:48 <Steven> told you i can count notably higher
20:19:20 <Steven> Sadly i dont know how to make a sigma with my numpad
20:19:32 <Steven> i bet i could google it
20:19:56 <Mekkis> how is that "counting"?
20:20:38 <Mort-> I want to learn to be lawful evil
20:20:53 <Steven> i never said i was going to add all the numbers together, i used math to achieve my goal.
20:21:07 <Mort-> I keep fking it up :(
20:21:22 <Mekkis> so it isn't counting :)
20:21:58 <Brunius> I can get up to four variations per finger/thumb, so what's that, quadranary?
20:22:01 <Hydrazine> I think anything beyond ternary is unreasonable for fingers though, Mek.
20:22:18 <Hydrazine> Can you do so on every finger independently, Brunius?
20:22:24 <Steven> well... if you use the definition of count to be the act of determining the total number of something
20:22:29 * Mort- lets all the bad maths pass through her head
20:22:34 <Mort-> Bad words
20:22:37 <Brunius> Not easily
20:22:43 <Mekkis> I often keep track of my life total in Magic in base 3
20:22:51 <Steven> if you use a mathmatical formula to determine that number, theres no reason that it wouldnt be counting
20:23:03 <Brunius> I'd just keep track of it in base 20
20:23:19 <Hydrazine> What symbols do you use for the rest of base 20?
20:23:39 <Mekkis> there is a benefit to keeping track in a high base: it makes your opponent more aggressive and more likely to overcommit
20:23:43 <Brunius> A-J
20:23:58 <Mekkis> I prefer using a low base, to make my opponent more conservative and passive
20:24:21 <Mekkis> when they see "34" on your life pad, they're less likely to be overly aggressive
20:24:25 <Hydrazine> I'm gonna start doing my HP in base 2 in game.
20:25:32 <Mekkis> Steven, "counting" implies a sequence
20:25:52 <Hydrazine> 11000/11011
20:26:03 <Mekkis> Hydrazine, that's bad
20:26:08 <Hydrazine> Hokubi took 3 damage!
20:26:26 <Mekkis> it makes the DM think you've got a lot of health, and therefore to target you more
20:26:45 <Mekkis> so when Houkbi's on 11111111 HP....
20:27:12 <Hydrazine> When hes on 255 hp, I'd say hes doing pretty good.
20:27:23 <Brunius> ^
20:27:24 <Mekkis> when you realise that it's eight-bit twos complement...
20:27:32 <Steven> count/kount/
20:27:33 <Steven> Verb:
20:27:33 <Steven> Determine the total number of (a collection of items).
20:27:33 <Steven> Noun:
20:27:33 <Steven> An act of determining the total number of something.
20:27:33 <Steven> A European nobleman whose rank corresponds to that of an English earl.
20:27:38 * Mort- facepalms
20:27:59 <Hydrazine> How about hex?
20:28:25 <Mekkis> hex has the advantage that it appears you're on a lower HP total than you are :)
20:28:42 <Mekkis> which is good in Pathfinder, but can be bad in Magic
20:29:20 <Brunius> ITT: People argue over whether Mort- has a tail, Steven argues over the meaning of words, and we debate which method of counting is best
20:29:38 <Steven> its a good night.
20:29:55 <Hydrazine> So full HP for him is.. 1B.]
20:30:16 <Hydrazine> I think.
20:31:20 <Steven> and its not really a debate over the meaning of the word, i googled it. If he wants to debate it, he can email google.
20:31:20 <Mekkis> base 5 is good in Magic
20:31:37 <Mekkis> because "34" is a reasonable life total
20:32:12 <Steven> Yeah man, i went early tonight to play magic with the guys before playing pfs
20:32:24 <Steven> and some new guy showed up and i had to help him create a character
20:32:31 <Steven> BOOM all my magic time... gone.
20:32:40 <Brunius> I play at lunchtimes
20:32:43 <Brunius> It's great
20:32:47 <Mort-> Heh
20:32:47 <Mekkis> Magic's too political for me :S
20:32:47 <Mort-> I think if i could fly i wouldn't be scared of heights
20:32:47 <Mort-> I mean personally I'm scared of heights but i keep having dreams of flying
20:33:05 <Mekkis> I want to build an ornithopter
20:33:11 <Brunius> Oh dear
20:33:20 <Steven> I used to work nights at a gas station and ide get all my work done and my buddy josh would come in and we would play for like 2-2.5hr a night
20:34:21 <Steven> It was a lot of fun, did that for like two years
20:34:55 <Brunius> "Regardless of the century, plane, or species, developing artificers never fail to invent the ornithopter."
20:34:59 <Mort-> I just want to grow a pair of feathery wings
20:34:59 <Mort-> That i can fly on
20:35:13 <Steven> wanna go bird hunting mort?
20:35:32 <Steven> i got a shotgun you can borrow
20:35:42 <Brunius> Ohho
20:35:54 <Brunius> Whereabouts in 'merica are you Steven?
20:36:09 <Steven> on the boarder of Washington/Idaho
20:36:11 <Mort-> No!
20:36:41 <Mort-> 0/2 i think orinithopher
20:37:18 <Mort-> Sigh just thinking about how i ended up in pfs
20:37:57 <Brunius> That's a pity, all my travel plans for the US (if I ever get around to enacting them sometime in my mid-20s) are for the west coast
20:38:00 <Steven> I think turn 1 darksteel citidal, Mox opal, Ornathopter, tap opal and citidal for monolyth and throw down a metal worker
20:38:14 <Brunius> Turn 1 Arcbound Worker
20:38:17 <Brunius> 2 Steel Overseer
20:38:20 <Brunius> 3 Sinking Feeling
20:38:21 <Mekkis> Brunius, you have travel plans for the US?
20:38:27 <Mort-> Jevouse said create a knowledge whore
20:38:30 <Mort-> So mort appeared
20:38:30 <Mort-> He said just create someone who has all the knowledge skills
20:38:30 <Mort-> We will take care of the rest of the fighting
20:38:32 <Steven> Why would you ever want to come to the US?
20:38:52 <Hydrazine> To buy electronics!
20:38:59 <Steven> where do you live brunius?
20:39:03 <Brunius> Australia!
20:39:20 <Brunius> Melbourne
20:39:24 <Mekkis> Turn 1 Tolarian Acadamy, mox opal, mox sapphire, black lotus, ancestral recall, time walk, timetwister, tinker for blightsteel colossus
20:39:30 <Mekkis> turn 2 attack for 11
20:39:43 <Mekkis> (infect)
20:40:02 <Steven> go to europe man, think it will probably be much cooler for you then the US
20:40:06 <Brunius> One of my friends runs a deck that can conceivably do a turn 0 kill
20:40:07 <Mekkis> agreed!
20:40:12 <Mekkis> yeah
20:40:17 <Mekkis> I've got flash hulk too
20:40:19 <Mekkis> who doesn't
20:40:31 <Brunius> I don't think it's flash hulk
20:40:33 <Steven> seriously, ive got a deck that does that
20:40:37 <Brunius> Mainly because the name is unfamiliar
20:40:42 <Brunius> It's some leyline combo
20:40:45 <Steven> its about as boring as it gets though.
20:40:58 <Mekkis> flash hulk has about a 15% chance of killing on turn 0
20:42:05 <Hydrazine> So we were pushing up bot lane when he enemy AP carry went mia... so we cv'd their blue and ez KSed it with R..
20:42:57 <Mekkis> Steven, how much would it cost you to ship a box to Australia?
20:43:32 <Steven> I dont know, ide have to go look it up.
20:43:32 <Brunius> Ordering from amazon then priceusa is about 120,
20:46:39 <Steven> I do know it costs and arm and a leg to ship internationally
20:46:43 <Mort-> What's the difference between charm and dominate mek
20:46:44 <Mort-> Curious
20:46:44 <Mort-> I don't think ill use that particular school of magic
20:46:44 <Mort-> But you can never tell
20:47:16 <Mekkis> charm is "you like me, so you'll probably do what I say"
20:47:48 <Mekkis> compulsion is "My mind is so vastly superior than yours that you WILL do as I say"
20:48:12 <Steven> and duration
20:48:17 <Brunius> Hold crap
20:48:21 <Brunius> Holy even
20:48:24 <Brunius> http://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/tkx5b/my_friend_always_claimed_that_obiwan_died_in_the/c4nknrf
20:51:14 <Steven> heh that was intersting
20:51:24 mortswishytail ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
20:51:57 <mortswishytail> In order to use charm and compulsion to its full effect you need high cha right?
20:52:07 <Mekkis> not really
20:52:09 <mortswishytail> Charm and dominate
20:52:19 <Mekkis> it sort of helps for charm
20:52:25 <mortswishytail> Say mort decides to charm people
20:52:26 <Mekkis> doesn't need it for dominate
20:52:29 <mortswishytail> Sure 16 dc on a level 1 spell
20:52:36 <mortswishytail> Pretty decent?
20:52:46 Mort- has quit (Ping timeout: 181 seconds)
20:52:48 <mortswishytail> So next go bash the guy next to you
20:52:53 <mortswishytail> - make charisma check?
20:53:03 <mortswishytail> = chance of screwup?
20:53:20 <Mekkis> depends what you're trying to do
20:53:29 <mortswishytail> So dominate means no cha check?
20:53:40 mortswishytail has quit (Quit: Bye)
20:54:48 Mort- ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
20:54:57 <Mort-> Sorry dc
20:55:43 <Steven> Dominate means no cha check, you just have to tell them to do something and whenever you issue an order they get to make a save vs the spell effect
20:55:51 <Mort-> Does dominate give bonus saves if you're forcing that guy to hit his allies?
20:56:39 <Steven> It gets one save, when you issue the command to kill a person with a +2 modifer
20:56:48 <Mekkis> one additional save
20:56:49 Mort- has quit (EOF from client)
20:56:56 Mort- ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
20:57:43 <Mort-> So keep orders simple
20:57:46 <Steven> One additional save whenever you issue an order against its nature.
20:57:55 <Mort-> What happens instead of saying attack x
20:57:56 <Steven> no, you just tell it to do something thats in its nature
20:58:05 <Mort-> But attack all my foes instead
20:58:21 <Mort-> Because you don't want to keep having to change his orders
20:58:32 <Mort-> More saves you know
20:58:34 <Steven> like today, i got dominated, i started doing mundane things, like locking the room
20:58:44 <Mort-> Yeah
20:59:07 <Steven> I didnt get to make a save because i wouldnt want bad guys to get away.
20:59:20 <Steven> so i took two turns and walked over to the door and locked it
20:59:31 <Steven> the new order was to take the key and hide it
20:59:36 <Mort-> I don't want kalara or xyniel dominated
20:59:37 <Mort-> First thing xyn will start sending everyone running.
20:59:38 <Mort-> In short order
20:59:38 <Mort-> Wtf. :p
20:59:42 <Mort-> Against your nature?
20:59:48 <Steven> well i wouldnt want the bad guys to be able to pick up the key real fast and escape
20:59:54 <Mort-> A lot of my characters don't have sense motive
20:59:56 <Mort-> Though
20:59:58 <Steven> so i spent a turn or two hiding it
21:00:01 <Mort-> That will be a problem
21:00:02 <Mort-> Ok
21:00:11 <Steven> well then the succubus got in trouble and told me to go find her a potion
21:00:18 <Steven> BAM new save... shes a bad guy.
21:00:33 <Steven> i dont want bad guys to be able to heal
21:00:34 <Mort-> So you went to find her a potion?
21:00:40 mortswishytail ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
21:00:50 <Steven> i failed my save and tried to find her a potion.
21:01:09 <mortswishytail> Ok
21:01:15 <mortswishytail> Certainly
21:01:29 <Steven> none of my party members would give me a potion so i went and found the key, unlocked the door, and ran to a potion vender took me like 17 rounds
21:01:38 <Steven> came back
21:01:43 <Steven> two people dead
21:01:59 <Steven> the succubus was like give me the potion
21:02:09 <Steven> bam new save, i failed handed her the potion
21:02:23 <Steven> she tried to drink it, monk took AOO and knocked it out of her hand
21:02:35 <Steven> she cursed and sent me to find another one
21:02:41 <Steven> new save
21:02:46 <Steven> it was a really bad night for me
21:02:54 <Steven> i kept rolling <10
21:02:59 <Steven> and the dc is like 22
21:03:05 <Steven> was so freakin bad
21:03:15 <Mekkis> wording suggestions is hard
21:03:26 <mortswishytail> I want to learn
21:03:26 <Mekkis> remember when Grolschmir was dominated :)
21:03:47 <mortswishytail> I don't want any of my melees dominated
21:04:06 <mortswishytail> If xyn gets dominated just grapple her and tie her up
21:04:25 <mortswishytail> Unfortunately..uh she is a scary monster
21:04:38 Mort- has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
21:04:49 <mortswishytail> But even grolsh dominated
21:05:00 <mortswishytail> If hawk doesn't want to move
21:05:01 <mortswishytail> Can't charge? :p
21:05:16 <Steven> But yeah, it was pretty crazy, 3 days dominated
21:05:25 <mortswishytail> Yeah :(
21:05:27 <Steven> cause she ran away
21:05:29 <Mekkis> I wonder
21:05:33 <Steven> she=the succubus
21:05:44 <Mekkis> if Itzamna should teach Combat Riding to Khaa!
21:05:46 <mortswishytail> ?
21:06:08 <Mekkis> Khaa! is Itzamna's hawk
21:06:12 <mortswishytail> You want khaa to ride where?
21:06:17 <mortswishytail> I know
21:06:53 <mortswishytail> Xyns way of dealing with invisibles is so suited to her profession
21:06:58 <mortswishytail> Dough them up!
21:07:07 <mortswishytail> Like see invisibility scroll
21:07:12 <mortswishytail> Take out pouch of flour
21:07:12 <Mekkis> Itzamna might want to ride him
21:07:16 <mortswishytail> And start throwing
21:07:22 <mortswishytail> I don't recommend it
21:07:24 <Steven> so sad news, my buddy josh is giving up playing with our current group. He is tired of the way we Gm
21:07:37 <Steven> which is Joe being a fuck around, and me being Rules oriented.
21:07:39 <mortswishytail> Hawk is a little wimpy
21:07:48 <Steven> so no more home brew.
21:07:51 <mortswishytail> Spellcraft check. Where is spell coming from
21:07:54 * Steven is a sad panda.
21:08:04 <mortswishytail> Oh hawk. Ok magic missiles
21:08:17 <mortswishytail> Oops. Its a long way down!
21:08:50 <Brunius> Steven: Get them in here!
21:08:58 <mortswishytail> Lol

21:09:20 Mort- ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
21:09:56 <Steven> I'll see if josh will come play, im not inviting joe. Joe is a pain in the ass.
21:14:01 <Brunius> Hmm, I need more cash
21:14:17 <Brunius> Time to sell more crap on ebayt
21:14:20 <Mekkis> then go to an ATM
21:14:20 <Brunius> -t
21:14:28 <Mekkis> what sort of "crap"?
21:14:28 <Steven> He says no, he is going to take a break from pfs for a few weeks at the least.
21:14:33 <Brunius> I have 33c in the bank
21:14:40 <Mekkis> that's a problem
21:15:56 <Mekkis> any cons coming up in the next few months?
21:16:14 <Brunius> Not till unicon I think
21:16:30 <Brunius> And all my money around that time is going towards RtR
21:16:31 <Mekkis> isn't there something in Canberra or Sydney?
21:16:35 <Mekkis> RtR?
21:16:44 <Brunius> RTR, even
21:16:50 <Brunius> Return to Ravnica
21:17:08 <Brunius> RRV
21:17:13 <Brunius> Whatever it's called
21:17:13 <Mekkis> ah
21:20:15 <Mekkis> where do you play?
21:20:37 <Brunius> The plan for RTR is GG:Blackburn or Cardtastic
21:20:50 <Brunius> Probably cardtastic
21:25:39 <Mekkis> there's too much politics in Brisbane Magic
21:25:55 <Brunius> Oh?
21:28:41 <Mekkis> does Good Games have a Reputation down there?
21:28:45 <Mekkis> that you know of?

21:37:56 <Mort-> Barb levels age fine too
21:38:32 <Mort-> But frankly anything else really tweaks my incredubility

21:47:17 * Ausk roars furiously at mort.
21:47:34 <Mekkis> oh no
21:47:40 <Mekkis> Ausk needs to make a will save
21:47:47 <Mort-> Why?

21:48:54 <Ausk> yes i can, i acted first! bwahahaha
21:49:06 <Mekkis> Mort- was stabbed with a spell-storing dagger of Sanctuary three rounds ago!
21:50:00 <Ausk> damn those random stabbings
21:50:23 <Mort-> What?
21:50:28 <Mort-> I never noticed it!
21:50:36 <Mekkis> it was a tiny dagger
21:50:56 <Mort-> No damage?
21:51:00 <Mekkis> 1 nonlethal
21:51:03 <Mort-> Gosh
21:51:06 <Mekkis> didn't you feel the prick?
21:51:08 <Mort-> Never felt it!
21:51:12 <Mort-> Nope
21:51:18 <Mort-> Nose in cell
21:51:20 <Mekkis> must have DR/lethal
21:51:29 <Mort-> -10 to perception
21:51:31 <Mort-> :p

21:54:04 <Mort-> !throw 1d20+7 reflex
21:54:04 <diebot> Mort-, reflex: [1d20=14] 21
21:54:07 <Ausk> I know, cause sanctuary doesnt protect against aoe!
21:54:25 * Mort- casts resist energy fire

21:56:33 <Brunius> And then I said "sleep shall be had!"
21:56:38 <Brunius> I might try statting up myself
21:56:41 <Mort-> I will keep that one in mind
21:56:42 <Brunius> Night guys
21:56:54 <Ausk> !throw 1d20+12
21:56:54 <diebot> Ausk, 1d20+12: [1d20=4] 16
21:56:59 <Mort-> Xyn can actually attempt to umd it
21:57:07 <Ausk> I have been lowing so bad the last day on saves its rediculous
21:57:10 <Mort-> She has good umd
21:57:11 <Mort-> Lol
21:57:15 <Mekkis> You are Suggested to play nice with Mort-
21:57:25 <Ausk> Wouldnt you like that?
21:57:33 <Ausk> BAM! clear spindle in a wayfinder!
21:57:36 <Mort-> But it was one of the spells that i was eyeing for her
21:57:38 <Mort-> Sorry
21:57:42 <Mort-> Mek isn't evil
21:57:46 <Mort-> Myz
21:57:47 * Ausk flexes like a boss
21:57:54 <Mort-> Its like a protection from evil spell
21:58:00 <Mort-> Myz is not evil
21:58:09 <Mort-> So. It doesn't work on him
21:58:26 <Ausk> yes it prevents you from having compulsions cast on you.
21:58:48 <Mort-> Only if caster is evil
21:58:58 <Ausk> or rather, it prevents them from giving you commands.
21:59:07 <Mort-> Protects you from mind affecting things as per protection from evil
21:59:26 <Mort-> So like protection from evil it works only if the caster is evil
22:00:30 <Ausk> no its as per the mechanisim of protection from evil
22:00:37 <Ausk> in how it works
22:00:40 <Mort-> As per spell
22:00:50 <Mort-> Protection from evil
22:01:53 <Ausk> Kyle Baird (Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Adventure Path, Campaign Setting, Companion Subscriber) Jan 19, 2011, 05:04 PM FLAG | LIST | FAQ | REPLY
22:01:53 <Ausk> +
22:01:53 <Ausk> Protection from Evil imbues upon its target immunity to any new compulsion or charm effects regardless of the alignment of the effect's creator. By extension this broken (a term I don't use lightly) combination prevents the owner from being affected by spells like Confusion, Hold Person, and sleep.
22:01:54 <Ausk> This combination doesn't require any slots, is permanent, and only costs 4,250 gp. For that minor cost, you completely negate an entire school of magic.
22:01:54 <Ausk> Why bother with Iron Will, and Improved Iron Will, when you can just spend a few gp and get this?
22:01:54 <Ausk> Why does an item that allows you to live w/o food and water grant a resonant power that protects you vs. mind-affecting effects?
22:02:32 <Mort-> I read it before you did
22:02:55 <Mort-> I say it works but only on evil casters
22:03:09 <Mort-> Else why reference it to spell protection from evil
22:03:24 <Mekkis> link?
22:03:45 <Mort-> Its in seeker of secrets mek.
22:03:46 <Ausk> well its a good thing the world of PFS doesnt work according to mort, rather it works as per the designers
22:04:16 <Mort-> I just feel from the book it sounds like it functions like the spell protection from evil
22:04:28 <Mort-> Except no bonus to ac and saves
22:04:46 <Mort-> I knew it a long time ago mek
22:05:00 <Mort-> Sometimes my knowledge brings me to some obscure paths
22:05:19 <Mekkis> I meant, a link to that forum post
22:06:14 <Mort-> The first person i told about it was hydra
22:06:18 <Mort-> Lol
22:06:57 <Mort-> paizo.com/forums/dmtz3d70?Wayfinder-Clear-Spindle-Ioun-Stone-Protection#0
22:08:07 <Mort-> This second effect only functions against spells and effects created by evil creatures or objects, subject to GM discretion."
22:08:48 <Ausk> we are not talking about the second effect, we are talking about the third effect.
22:09:11 <Ausk> blah, im thinking of another book
22:09:15 <Ausk> hahahah
22:09:33 <Ausk> this is why i shouldnt get into rules discussions when its time to go to bed
22:10:02 <Mort-> Hm
22:11:17 <Ausk> Anyways, ive played nice for.... what a minute?
22:11:23 <Ausk> well several minutes now
22:11:31 <Ausk> I have completed the suggestion!
22:11:50 <Mekkis> Suggestion lasts 1 hour!
22:12:02 <Ausk> 1 hour/level or until completed
22:12:08 <Mekkis> I opened a notebook and found my DSP notes
22:12:15 <Mekkis> you haven't completed it
22:12:25 <Ausk> Yes ive been playing nice for several minutes now.
22:12:37 * Mort- purrs
22:12:43 * Ausk uses judgments to up resistances and AC
22:13:40 * Ausk burps in Morts face.
22:13:45 * Mort- decides to run off
22:13:51 <Mort-> Oh wait
22:14:01 * Mort- tries
22:14:11 <Mort-> Ausk. I would like some chocolate chip cookies
22:14:12 <Ausk> I dont have any weapons drawn.
22:14:20 <Ausk> you can run off.
22:14:22 <Mort-> Can you go and get them for me?
22:14:28 <Ausk> NOPE
22:14:37 <Ausk> You slapped me. I scared you. Seems Fair.
22:14:38 <Mort-> No. I'm asking you to get me some chocolate chip cookies
22:14:47 <Ausk> I refuse.
22:14:49 <Mort-> No. You're supposed to be nice
22:15:09 <Ausk> I was nice. I satisfied the suggestion spell. The compulsion ends.
22:15:12 <Mort-> Myz! You sure your suggestion spell worked too well?
22:15:45 <Mort-> Well i really would like some chocolate chip cookies
22:16:29 <Ausk> Suggestion only lasts for 1hr/level OR until the task is completed. I didnt attack/scare you further, which for Ausk is about as 'play nice' as he gets. Compusion ends.
22:16:51 <Ausk> He didnt ask me to go fetch you cookies.
22:17:46 <Mort-> Being nice should mean you try to make me happy.
22:17:57 <Mort-> Chocolate chip cookies would make me happy!
22:18:21 * Ausk Attempts to slap some sense into Mort.
22:18:32 <Mort-> Sanctuary
22:18:45 <Mort-> Not allowed.
22:19:00 <Ausk> sanctuary only lasts one round per level
22:19:08 <Ausk> its been forever...
22:19:14 <Ausk> you no longer have sanctuary
22:19:15 <Mort-> I have no clue who did it
22:19:25 <Mort-> Or the caster of whatever
22:19:40 <Ausk> !throw 1d20+13 Sense Slap
22:19:41 <diebot> Ausk, Sense Slap: [1d20=1] 14
22:19:44 <Mort-> Urm
22:19:52 <Mort-> Nat 1?
22:19:55 <Ausk> YUP
22:20:03 <Mort-> Full action run off
22:20:36 <Mort-> Actually can just 5 ft step back
22:20:44 <Mort-> And ddoor out
22:21:30 <Mekkis> Ausk, you presume my caster level isn't that high!
22:22:08 <Mekkis> and that I don't have extend spell
22:22:17 <Mekkis> or a 3.5e version of persist spell!
22:22:21 <Mort-> Seriously though
22:22:26 <Mort-> Who would cast it
22:22:39 <Ausk> what sanctuary?
22:22:42 <Mort-> You don't have a cleric or oracle mek.h
22:22:45 <Ausk> Its a decently useful spell.
22:23:12 <Mort-> I forget i can ddoor now...
22:23:26 <Ausk> yeah, go ahead.
22:24:14 * Mort- flaps wings
22:24:41 <Mekkis> heh
22:24:54 <Mekkis> I sent you both the link to the picture on Paizo's site
22:25:02 <Mekkis> but you both had +R :P
22:25:49 <Ausk> *cough cough* Chicken shit *cough cough*
22:26:37 * Mort- shrugs
22:27:13 <Ausk> so mort... gonna 5ft and ddoor?
22:29:24 <Ausk> also.... that map looks familiar...
22:29:30 <Mort-> Y not
22:29:33 <Mort-> I can't see anything
22:29:36 <Mekkis> !throw 1d20+10 ranged, flat-footed touch attack at Ausk
22:29:37 <diebot> Mekkis, ranged, flat-footed touch attack at Ausk: [1d20=5] 15
22:29:50 <Mekkis> oh
22:29:53 <Mekkis> add +2 to that
22:30:03 <Ausk> it would miss either way
22:30:10 <Ausk> !roll 1d20+15 spellcraft
22:30:11 <dicebot> Ausk, spellcraft: [1d20=18] 33
22:30:43 <Mekkis> really?
22:30:50 <Mekkis> how do you manage that?
22:31:01 <Mekkis> uncanny dodge?
22:31:19 <Ausk> really. I can clearly see you because you didnt restealth
22:31:27 <Mekkis> invisibility?

22:32:50 <Avatar> whta are you guys doing
22:32:56 <Ausk> dicking around mostly
22:33:06 <Mekkis> Ausk is trying to win against Ghandi
22:33:14 <Ausk> I was going to go to bed
22:33:23 <Ausk> but sam woke up, so theres no reason now.
22:33:26 <Mort-> He bullied me!
22:33:30 <Mekkis> !findchar Ghandi
22:33:34 <diebot> Mekkis, Character: Ghandi, number: 233( http://dnd.ballig.net/viewchar.php5?char=233 )
22:33:40 <Ausk> excuse me.... who slapped who Mort?
22:33:53 <Mort-> Because you were being rude to him!
22:34:07 <Mort-> You said you didn't care about his privacy!
22:34:14 <Mort-> i stand up for my friends!
22:34:21 * Mort- fluffs up!
22:34:47 <Avatar> no you don't
22:34:50 <Avatar> you make them go first all the time
22:35:00 <Ausk> Oh noes... i dont care about a person ive never met face to face's privacy
22:35:29 <Mekkis> you become aware that any hostile actions will be met with DIRE CONSEQUENCES!
22:35:50 <Ausk> mostly i dont care about his privacy, because if he doesnt want to share he doesnt have to you dork!
22:36:01 <Mort-> I would care about anyones privacy!
22:36:08 <Ausk> at which point, you slapped me, and i roared at you
22:36:25 <Ausk> Since then ive made no hostile actions.
22:36:30 <Mort-> Because you said you didn't care about his privacy
22:36:58 <Ausk> oh sure, keep running to that excuse... cause its worked so well so far.
22:38:40 * Mort- fur fluffed
22:39:30 * Ausk feels satisfied
22:39:36 Ausk is now known as Steven
22:40:01 <Steven> Methinks its time for more cherry coke
22:41:35 <Steven> oh yeah...
22:41:40 <Steven> its tasty
22:42:16 <Steven> so... walter just sent me an email. Told him about how my skull and shackles home brew was a failure to launch due to doucheness from josh
22:42:29 <Steven> inviting me to a new homebrew he is starting up
22:42:43 <Steven> His fell apart hardcore, and so he is tired of playing it.
22:43:09 <Steven> me and him went back and forth creating a pretty bad ass session for his players
22:43:22 <Steven> guy getting attacked by constructs
22:43:36 <Steven> party jumps in to save him but alas its one hit too many on him and he dies
22:44:32 <Steven> Party kills construts on the body they find a key to a shop, a letter, a box(artifact), and a writ of passage onto a boat.
22:45:37 <Steven> they dont bother reading the letter
22:46:43 <Steven> some guy shows up, says give me the box /insult /insult /insult, they hand the guy the box, buy passage on a boat and leave the area.
22:46:49 <Hydrazine> Maybe if it was a +1 letter.
22:47:31 <Steven> the didnt ask around town to find out who the guy was
22:48:01 <Steven> they put like zero effort into ti
22:48:32 <Steven> so walter was like well if you guys dont want to play, /end Homebrew
22:48:51 <Steven> and they were like no we want to play, we want to play
22:49:20 <Steven> but i guess its been like that for two weeks.
22:49:21 <Mort-> That's why for homebrews i let people take lead
22:49:37 <Mort-> People have done stuff like that more then i have
22:49:41 <Steven> they just phone it in on the roleplaying part and just rush into combat.
22:49:51 <Mort-> I still have a lot of hack and slash left on me
22:50:08 <Hydrazine> Well, different strokes for different folks and all, aslong as everyone's on the same page.
22:50:31 <Hydrazine> It sounds like the DM and the players want different kinds of games.
22:50:58 <Steven> no, the home brew was going on for around 3-4 months
22:52:01 <Steven> and before this they had been on top of it, but the last two weeks they just been like /minimum effort
22:52:27 <Mort-> Maybe bad day in rl?
22:52:34 <Steven> for 5 people?
22:52:36 <Mort-> We all have our mood swings
22:52:46 <Mort-> Try me at 2 am
22:52:47 <Steven> on 3 seperate days
22:53:22 <Mort-> I do remember my character was a tad grouchy that session ^^
22:53:46 <Steven> walter showed me all the content he already had written for the brew, and i would say its very easily paizo Module quality or better
22:54:11 <Steven> the players just refused to get into it.
22:54:29 <Steven> they did one encounter in an hour and a half.
22:55:01 <Steven> walter at the end of it just softballed the end encounter to them and they were just like, Meh, heres the artifact go rule the world.
22:55:14 <Mort-> Lol
22:55:46 <Mort-> Xyn will give it to the temple of sarenrae for safe keeping
22:55:47 <Mort-> :d
22:56:12 <Steven> because the BBEG he had set up was not supposed to come to them, they were supposed to follow some clues, had some interesting combats and finally a dungeon crawl to end boss
22:56:18 <Mort-> Mort would bring the artifact to her tower to do research on it
22:56:34 <Mort-> I think I'm slow at picking up clues
22:56:38 <Mekkis> so there was a lack of motivation
22:56:40 <Steven> but they were waiting in town for 3 days waiting for a ship to come in
22:56:53 <Steven> yeah complete lack of motivation.
22:56:59 <Steven> for 3 sessions.
22:57:09 <Mekkis> is that completely the player's fault?
22:57:10 <Steven> so he just ended it.
22:57:14 <Mort-> Again one thing is pfs is generally combat heavy and not so much into picking up clues and stuff
22:57:48 <Mort-> Generally ask vc what do you know about the region. Mission
22:58:09 <Mort-> Ok people lets pack bags and move out'
22:58:14 <Steven> I would say Majority of it on the players, i read the content he had, and what they had done before
22:58:27 <Steven> and it was fairly enguaging
22:59:03 <Steven> then the last week when i was helping him, we had a fairly large web of clues drawn out
22:59:20 <Steven> so they could pretty much do anything and it would get them somewhere else
22:59:39 <Steven> EXCEPT for just being like meh dude got killed, we got a cool box, lets wait for ship to come into town and then leave
23:00:56 <Hydrazine> Not quite as blatantly trying to get out of a campaign as selling all your worldly possessions and buying plane tickets to Russia.. but pretty bad.
23:00:57 <Steven> Anyways point being, Walter invited me to participate in the new homebrew he is making. Woot woot!
23:01:16 <Hydrazine> Which I did in a game once. My god that was terrible.
23:01:33 <Mekkis> I should start a homebrew again
23:01:41 <Steven> since my home brew failed, his home brew failed
23:01:57 <Steven> so hes like well, lets start a new one up, since you're no longer busy, you can play in mine
23:02:25 <Steven> He knows I will at least push things in interesting directions
23:03:12 <Steven> Also, has anyone checked out the ARG?
23:03:25 <Steven> Humans... most powerful race EVER
23:03:35 <Hydrazine> Advanced races? No, haven't seen it yet.
23:03:55 <Steven> dude they can give up their bonus feat for another +2 in an ability score
23:03:58 <Hydrazine> But I am taking a peek at might of the Magus, and some of it seems like it might be absolutely ridiculous.
23:04:01 <Hydrazine> whaaat?
23:04:06 <Steven> i know right?
23:05:51 <Mort-> Yeah
23:06:05 <Mort-> Jerus could have started with 22 str
23:06:13 <Mort-> If the arg was to be believed
23:06:18 <Steven> no
23:06:26 <Mort-> Not?
23:06:34 <Mort-> I didn't really read that in detail
23:06:36 <Steven> its +2 in an ability score, and +2 in another ability score
23:06:46 <Mort-> But what did they write about magi
23:06:51 * Mort- ears perk up
23:07:54 <Mekkis> don't worry
23:08:03 <Mekkis> humans are still stupid and short-lived
23:08:40 <Hydrazine> Monks would certainly appreciate an extra +2 on top of a point buy.
23:09:09 <Hydrazine> How about longbowing spell combat with rapid shot, Mort?
23:11:07 <Mort-> It means you need a mymridach
23:11:16 <Hydrazine> Or just a couple feats.
23:11:27 <Mort-> now if only gambit wasn't stuck with cards...
23:11:29 <Mort-> No
23:11:45 <Mort-> Mymridach lets you use ranged shocking grasp
23:11:55 <Hydrazine> Heres one. Use weapon's crit modifier for spellstrikes. All the magi switch to light picks..
23:12:06 <Mort-> I'm still trying to figure out if it works for duration melee touch
23:12:15 <Mort-> You won't crit
23:12:24 <Mort-> Keen has limitations hydra.
23:12:38 <Hydrazine> No.
23:12:46 <Hydrazine> I mean critting x4 on a shocking grasp.
23:12:52 <Mort-> Though you can say any magus will have his weapon "permanently keened" past 5
23:13:02 <Mort-> Its the trying to crit part
23:13:27 <Mort-> The reason why every magus ends up with a scimitar is the range
23:13:45 <Mort-> If i were doing skulls and shackles type adventure
23:13:49 <Hydrazine> Think this would change if they had an option to go for the modifier instead?
23:13:57 <Mort-> I would switch to cutlass
23:14:00 <Mort-> I think not.
23:14:24 <Mort-> Most people on the boards voted for bigger range opposed to higher crit mod
23:15:03 <Mort-> I think it would be cool to fire entangling arrows
23:15:09 <Mort-> But not sure how to do Thu
23:15:10 <Mort-> That
23:15:27 <Mort-> If ranged spell strike worked on frostbite
23:15:42 <Mort-> You could technically fire entangling arrows
23:15:49 <Hydrazine> Casting touch spells as AoOs.
23:16:15 <Mort-> With the frost bite damage doing once per round 1d6+ caster level
23:16:29 <Mort-> Time to get prehensile hair hex
23:16:37 <Mort-> What? You didn't know i had reach?
23:16:50 * Mort- tail slaps a shocking grasp :p
23:16:54 <Mort-> Wow cool
23:17:07 <Steven> Think i might buy the ARG
23:17:22 <Hydrazine> Huh. Thats actually kind of cool.
23:17:53 <Hydrazine> Metamagic to turn a touch spell into a shield sort of effect that triggers when they hit you.
23:18:07 <Mort-> What?
23:18:13 <Mort-> Explain that
23:18:34 <Hydrazine> You metamagic shocking grasp with this, go about your day.
23:18:48 <Hydrazine> stupid orc axes you, gets shocked like woah.
23:18:54 <Mort-> Oh oh
23:19:05 <Mort-> If i were a bbeg
23:19:22 <Mort-> I would either use protection from electricity
23:19:47 <Mort-> Or just throw a few mooks at the magus in question to set off the bomb
23:19:50 <Mort-> So to speak
23:20:08 <Mort-> Then move in
23:20:24 <Mort-> On hit its like defensive shock?
23:20:28 <Mort-> No saves?
23:20:32 <Mort-> Only sr?
23:22:33 * Hydrazine reads.
23:22:54 <Hydrazine> Spell goes off as normal. If its a spell with multiple charges it lasts for that many hits.
23:23:08 <Mort-> Kaboom.
23:23:28 <***> Buffer Playback...
23:23:28 <***> Playback Complete.
23:23:45 <Mort-> If you know a magus is after you. Always send mooks to defuse the bomb first
23:24:07 <Steven> OH MAN... ARG so good.
23:24:11 <Mort-> Actually what i would do
23:24:26 <Mort-> Is to use rime frostbite
23:24:31 <Mort-> Then run into melee
23:24:41 <Mort-> Its like frost armor from wc3
23:24:50 <Mort-> Melee attackers get entangled
23:25:30 <Steven> Surprise Follow-Through
23:25:31 <Mort-> If its an undead day switch to chill touch instead
23:25:44 <Mort-> Hydra.You sure all this stuff is pfs legal?
23:25:51 <Hydrazine> It isn't in the least.
23:25:57 <Steven> Surprise Follow-Through (Combat)
23:25:58 <Steven> When striking one opponent, you catch its ally off guard.
23:25:58 <Steven> Prerequisites: Str 13, Cleave, Power Attack, base attack
23:25:58 <Steven> bonus +1.
23:25:58 <Steven> Benef it: When using Cleave or Great Cleave, the second
23:25:58 <Steven> foe you attack on your turn is denied its Dexterity bonus
23:25:58 <Steven> against you.
23:26:18 <Hydrazine> nice.
23:26:26 <Steven> Improved Surprise Follow-Through (Combat)
23:26:27 <Steven> You follow up an attack with a surprising series of
23:26:27 <Steven> sweeping blows.
23:26:27 <Steven> Prerequisites: Str 13, Cleave, Great Cleave, Power
23:26:27 <Steven> Attack, Surprise Follow Through, base attack bonus +8.
23:26:27 <Steven> Benef it: When using Great Cleave, each opponent you
23:26:27 <Steven> attack on your turn (other than the f irst) is denied his
23:26:27 <Steven> Dexterity bonus against you.
23:26:36 <Hydrazine> That might actually get Jerus to cleave more.
23:27:44 <Mekkis> has Jerus hit 6th yet?
23:27:50 <Mort-> No!
23:27:59 <Mort-> Everyone is running low level stuff
23:28:22 <Mort-> I'm having to outsource morts adventuring to Google groups
23:29:58 <Mort-> Xyn is sort of permanently outsourced to Google groups
23:30:00 <Mort-> Anyway
23:30:13 <Steven> ok. everyone.
23:30:27 <Steven> there is no reason EVER to play anything other then a human.
23:31:00 <Mekkis> disagree.
23:31:10 <Mort-> Actually i look foward to spell combat with a longbow
23:31:21 <Mort-> I'm thinking what kind of arrows i could get
23:31:21 <Mekkis> every enemy ranger I've seen took favoured enemy (human)
23:31:39 <Steven> disagree all you want mekkis, the ARG is making them sooooooooooo good
23:32:15 <Steven> Eye for Talent: Humans have great intuition for
23:32:16 <Steven> hidden potential. They gain a +2 racial bonus on Sense
23:32:16 <Steven> Motive checks. In addition, when they acquire an animal
23:32:16 <Steven> companion, bonded mount, cohort, or familiar, that
23:32:16 <Steven> creature gains a +2 bonus to one ability score of the
23:32:16 <Steven> character’s choice. This racial trait replaces the bonus
23:32:16 <Steven> feat trait.
23:32:43 <Mort-> Doesn't work on eidolons
23:32:50 <Steven> which is a good thing mort
23:33:06 <Mort-> And my ranger is half orc
23:33:35 <Steven> and half orcs got some pretty cool stuff in the arg
23:34:24 <Mort-> Unfortunately i already created
23:34:40 <Mort-> So i can't change or will change anything
23:36:33 <Mort-> What about under Magus it says: The Magus gains 1/6 of a new magus arcana. How do you interpret that?
23:36:35 <Mort-> Wtf?
23:36:39 <Mort-> I want that!
23:36:58 <Steven> yeah, you get 1/6 of a new arcana per level
23:37:02 <Mort-> Think its elf
23:37:03 <Mort-> Though
23:37:06 <Mort-> I'm human
23:37:11 <Steven> OR 1 arcana every 6 levels
23:37:45 <Mort-> Yeah which race
23:44:23 <Steven> alright, i am going to the store and then sam is gonna cook breakfast
23:44:35 <Steven> mmmmmmmmmm bacon
23:45:12 <Steven> see you all later today
23:46:28 <Mort-> K
23:50:40 <Mekkis> you know
23:50:53 <Mekkis> like the half-elf summoner gets 1/4 evolution point each level
23:51:04 <Mekkis> it's like a free Extra Evolution feat every 4 levels!
23:55:03 <Mort-> PFS Guide to Organized Play v4.1, Page 5: "If you wish to apply a legal archetype to your character, you may do so at 1st level as normal. Additionally, you may apply an archetype to an existing class any time you level up as long as the first alternate ability does not replace an ability granted at a previous level."
23:55:08 <Mort-> Ah
23:55:14 <Mort-> I know
23:55:23 <Mort-> Xyn is half elf for a reason :p
23:55:39 <Mort-> She also doesn't have any stat below 10 :p
23:56:41 <Mort-> But magus arcana are good!
23:56:49 <Mort-> They mean more hexes!
23:57:10 <Mort-> Else i have to spend my feat slots on extra arcana
23:57:20 <Mort-> To get more hexes :(
23:58:31 * Mort- sniffs
