08:06:37 <***> Buffer Playback...
08:06:37 <***> Playback Complete.
08:30:37 <Hydrazine> Did you post your character on the site?
08:41:08 <yogsolidis> Yeah
08:42:09 <Hydrazine> Mind if I take a look?
08:42:11 <Hydrazine> Name?
08:42:44 <[SW]Boomer> ParneyTolarin
08:43:00 <Hydrazine> Not you! I know Parnet.
08:43:03 <Hydrazine> Parney.
08:46:09 <yogsolidis> What name do you need?
08:46:48 <Hydrazine> Name of the character.
08:46:52 <yogsolidis> Vailard
08:47:21 <Hydrazine> Ooh, barbarians. I like barbarians.
08:47:27 <yogsolidis> =)
08:48:15 <Hydrazine> a barbarian archer?
08:48:22 <yogsolidis> Yeah
08:48:43 <yogsolidis> Urban barbarian can rage with +4 to Dex (or Str or Con)
08:48:44 <Hydrazine> Hm.. I don't think you can afford to start with a comp. longbow in pfs.
08:48:53 <yogsolidis> It's 100 gold
08:50:45 <Hydrazine> Sorry to break your heart man. I hate it when I gotta bring players bad news.
08:50:54 <yogsolidis> Eh?
08:51:14 <Hydrazine> " A composite longbow can be made with a high strength rating to take advantage of an above-average Strength score; this feature allows you to add your Strength bonus to damage, up to the maximum bonus indicated for the bow. Each point of Strength bonus granted by the bow adds 100 gp to its cost."
08:52:13 <Hydrazine> But I rather bring you bad news now than have a dm flip when they see something fishy.
08:52:37 <yogsolidis> Well, the cost is misleading on the chart. Lol. It says 100 gold.
08:53:05 <Hydrazine> I agree, a bit silly to put a big detail like that in the fine print.
08:53:22 <yogsolidis> A simple asterisk would do.
08:53:25 <yogsolidis> :o
08:53:26 <Hydrazine> Would a suggestion offend you?
08:53:35 <yogsolidis> no
08:53:47 <yogsolidis> Never have played an archer before
08:53:55 <Hydrazine> Thrown weapons until you can afford a bow capable of the badassery you intend to inflict.
08:54:05 <Hydrazine> +dex mod to throw, +str mod to damage.
08:54:34 <yogsolidis> Hrm. What kind of weapon would you suggest? Good idea so that I don't spend money on a normal longbow
08:54:57 <Hydrazine> You won't get that much range, but generally you end up fighting pretty close anyway, no?
08:55:08 <yogsolidis> Yeah.
08:55:29 <yogsolidis> I can rage to increase my STR for damage for the thrown weapons at early levels.
08:56:26 <Hydrazine> Javelins. 1d6, 30ft range.
08:57:46 <yogsolidis> I like :) Thanks!
08:58:35 <Hydrazine> I was looking up this earlier because I was playing a very high Str fighter.
08:59:29 <Hydrazine> And I realized that my options for ranged combat were my current 1d8 plain longbow, a 1d8+6 comp longbow for... about 1000 gold, or. javelins, at 1d6+6, for pocket change.
09:01:07 <yogsolidis> I'm finding the rules for PFS are much different for character creation. Makes it interesting to say the least.
09:01:22 <Hydrazine> More.. I think the right word is regulated.
09:01:57 <yogsolidis> Yeah
09:02:06 * Mort- uncurls out of her little ball
09:02:21 <yogsolidis> hihi.
09:03:08 * Mort- wags her tail and looks at yogsolidis curiously
09:03:31 <yogsolidis> O.o
09:03:34 <Hydrazine> yogsolidis, don't forget to take into account your armor check penalties on your skills.
09:03:40 <yogsolidis> I just fixed that
09:03:42 <yogsolidis> Also
09:03:43 <Hydrazine> Thats a Mort. Shes a lemur. You'll get used to it.
09:03:53 <yogsolidis> About how many javelins should I carry around?
09:04:01 <Hydrazine> If you give her a cookie, you'll never get rid of her.
09:04:04 <Hydrazine> Fair warning.
09:04:08 <Mort-> Lol
09:04:20 <yogsolidis> Good thing I have these double chocolate cookies. In case.
09:04:28 * Mort- rolls and begs for a cookie
09:04:45 <Hydrazine> Depends.. Is this your main method of combat?
09:04:57 <yogsolidis> -Tosses her a cookie!-
09:04:57 <yogsolidis> Yes.
09:05:00 <yogsolidis> It will be.
09:05:02 <Mort-> Javelins are simple weapons
09:05:17 <Mort-> Won't get destroyed right hydra
09:05:26 <Hydrazine> Yeah. Its thrown, not ammo.
09:05:29 * Mort- leaps into the air to catch the cookie
09:05:39 <Mort-> So id say 10-20?
09:05:51 <Hydrazine> I'd say 10 should do.
09:05:53 <Mort-> My inquisitor has 10 on him
09:06:01 <yogsolidis> Okee.
09:06:08 <Mort-> But again it isnt his primary
09:06:28 <Hydrazine> Carry clubs!
09:06:28 <Mort-> And i get to play him today
09:06:33 <Mort-> Will be interesting
09:06:38 <Hydrazine> They're free, 10ft range increment, also a 1d6.
09:06:41 <Mort-> Why clubs?
09:06:44 <Mort-> Oh lol
09:06:52 <Mort-> I took slings
09:07:19 <Mort-> So i can use improvised stones on the ground when i run out of bullets
09:07:44 <Mort-> What should you bring when you're marooned on a deserted island?
09:07:51 <Hydrazine> Also, see this.
09:07:52 <Hydrazine> http://www.d20pfsrd.com/equipment---final/weapons/weapon-descriptions/amentum
09:08:00 <Mort-> 60 ft ftw!
09:08:19 <Mort-> How much per piece?
09:08:36 <Hydrazine> no price.
09:08:51 <Hydrazine> And its 50ft, not 60.
09:09:17 <Hydrazine> But still. 50' covers most combat scenes
09:09:18 <Mort-> Ok 10 of those
09:09:26 <yogsolidis> They
09:09:32 <yogsolidis> are free?*
09:09:37 <yogsolidis> Where is the price
09:09:44 <Hydrazine> Its just a long bit of lether.
09:09:57 <yogsolidis> Gotcha.
09:10:03 <Hydrazine> Rather like clubs, I think they assume you're capable of finding as many long thing bits of leather as you want.
09:10:27 <Mort-> Ok 10 of those as well
09:10:29 <Hydrazine> Go to your local leather worker and beg scraps.
09:10:52 * Mort- rolls on tummy and begs
09:11:02 <yogsolidis> Gonna take all my cookies :(
09:11:06 <Hydrazine> Yeah, the beauty is you can store them wrapped. So you wrap them up during your night watch, or during mission briefing, or while you're walking.. or whatever.
09:11:11 <Mort-> Haha
09:11:23 <Mort-> Remember what hydra said
09:11:29 <Mort-> When is next game
09:11:59 <Mort-> Hydra. Give briefing on feats?
09:12:10 * Mort- raises paw to ask for permission
09:12:17 <Mort-> Or gear only
09:14:28 * Mort- hugs yogsolidis for cookie
09:15:00 <yogsolidis> -Twirls a cookie on his finger tip and flicks it to Mort- o.o;;
09:15:28 <Mort-> Is this your first character?
09:15:35 <yogsolidis> For PFS, yeah.
09:15:43 <Mort-> Would you like me to poke over more gear list?
09:15:46 <yogsolidis> I mostly DM my homebrew campaigns
09:15:50 <Mort-> What armor are you wearing
09:15:54 <yogsolidis> studded leather
09:16:10 <Mort-> Can barbs use shield?
09:16:48 <yogsolidis> yeah
09:16:50 <yogsolidis> Except for tower
09:17:02 <Mort-> You have 18 dex I'm guessing?
09:17:07 <yogsolidis> Yar.
09:17:58 <yogsolidis> Since I'm not using a bow any more (until I get more cash monies), I probably should go ahead and use a shield.
09:18:07 <Mort-> For home brew i have an inquis with 21 but again the gm gave us 4d6 and said don't drop any :p
09:18:13 <Mort-> Suppose ill need it
09:18:25 <yogsolidis> Yea'.
09:20:37 * Mort- tumbles into yogsolids
09:21:12 <yogsolidis> Mah cookies. They are becoming extinct.
09:21:36 <Mort-> Damn it
09:21:46 <Mort-> I'm not very good at archery
09:22:00 <Mort-> But i recommend precise shot
09:22:14 <Mort-> You decide to throw your javelin at a monster
09:22:24 <yogsolidis> I got that
09:22:29 <Mort-> If i were monster. I would bite you
09:22:30 <yogsolidis> Point Blank and Precise Shot
09:22:39 <Mort-> There is another feat
09:22:47 <Mort-> To let you ignore cover from allies
09:22:55 <Mort-> Can't remember it
09:23:04 <yogsolidis> Sounds familiar.
09:23:10 <Mort-> You probably will be hiding behind a shield and board guy
09:23:19 <Mort-> And grinning like a loon
09:23:45 <yogsolidis> Yey! -flails arms-
09:24:00 <Mort-> So when you shoot from behind him if youre directly behind you take -4
09:25:05 <yogsolidis> Improved Precise shot lets you ignore cover
09:26:47 <Mort-> Oh thanks
09:26:58 <Mort-> Sorry I'm not an archer
09:27:06 <yogsolidis> First time playing one myself.
09:27:10 <Mort-> I'm an arcane trickster! :p
09:27:26 <yogsolidis> I figured you for the tricksy type. o=
09:27:29 <Mort-> Well sort off
09:27:34 <Mort-> I love magic
09:27:48 <Hydrazine> The cover from allies is generally not really an issue.
09:27:50 <yogsolidis> Yeah, I normally play a bard/sorcerer myself
09:27:53 <Mort-> And ill almost find some excuse not to fight you head on
09:28:02 <Mort-> And run some where else
09:28:07 <yogsolidis> Hehe.
09:28:17 <Mort-> Well last game it did matter
09:28:44 <Mort-> Hydra is our melee specialist / style specialist
09:29:26 * Hydrazine bows.
09:29:28 <yogsolidis> What's he playing?
09:29:36 <Hydrazine> Currently, a tetori monk.
09:29:37 <yogsolidis> Oh, he's back
09:29:43 <Mort-> Also a combat maneuver specialist
09:29:44 <yogsolidis> Cool
09:30:11 <yogsolidis> I have a guy doing something similar in the game I'm DMing
09:30:30 <Mort-> Heh
09:30:37 <Mort-> Which combat maneuver
09:30:50 <yogsolidis> Tripping. It's annoying as hell.
09:30:51 <yogsolidis> ;p
09:31:05 <Hydrazine> you five foot step to avoid getting directly behind friendlies.
09:31:11 <Mort-> My inquisitor is probably going to trip without improved trip
09:31:19 <Mort-> Just to provoke aoos
09:31:33 <Hydrazine> Oh, I'd suggest carrying a more significant melee weapon too.
09:31:36 <Mort-> Ya but we were down a narrow corridor that day
09:31:50 <yogsolidis> Lol
09:32:04 <Mort-> Be glad it wasn't dirty trick :p
09:32:17 <Hydrazine> I think I have a rather large problem with archer types being unwilling to enter melee. Sometimes it either you or someone with less than 1/4th of their hp.
09:32:22 <Hydrazine> Be a man and save the day.
09:32:28 <Mort-> There are evil ninja/maneuver masters out there
09:32:46 <yogsolidis> As an urban barbarian I'll easily have that option. If I was a straight up archer type I might not
09:32:52 <Mort-> They do dirty trick. Blind. Then say. He's flat footed!
09:33:00 <Hydrazine> I was playing a polearm fighter who tripped alot. He was pretty awesome. Then he died. i'm still a bit sour over it.
09:33:02 <Mort-> Sneak attack like a loon
09:33:04 <yogsolidis> Manuevers (depending on the type) are one of the most annoying things to a DM.
09:33:27 <Mort-> Sorry hydra but I'm not going to run into melee any time soon
09:33:32 <Mort-> :d
09:33:37 <Hydrazine> Actually, I think he was very awesome, but I should. He was mine after all.
09:33:45 <Mort-> Yeah he was
09:34:09 <Mort-> Seriously though i missed him last game
09:34:15 <Hydrazine> He'd trip on his AoOs and put people on the floor during surprise rounds.
09:34:19 <yogsolidis> Buckler or heavy wooden?
09:34:21 <yogsolidis> shield*
09:34:22 <Mort-> No one had decent attack mods for nuts
09:34:26 <Mort-> Heavy wooden
09:34:48 <Hydrazine> Hmm. Don't forget about actions to use the shield.
09:34:51 <Mort-> We spent like 10 rounds trying to hit the monsters.
09:34:57 <Mort-> Move to draw?
09:35:21 <yogsolidis> unless it says you can quickdraw, yeah
09:35:32 <Mort-> Having a +4 to your attack roll does not work out well with a skeleton champ on you
09:35:49 <Hydrazine> Oh, about your PFS number, when you register the character on Paizo, they give you the last digit.
09:35:56 <Mort-> Having a longsword crit on you definitely ruins your day
09:35:58 <Hydrazine> As your first society character, Vailard will be -1.
09:36:04 <yogsolidis> I did. It's a 1. I already added it to my revised character
09:36:09 <yogsolidis> sheet
09:36:10 <Hydrazine> Awesome.
09:36:43 <Mort-> For the first time in that characters pfs history
09:36:49 <Mort-> She full wded
09:37:09 <Mort-> Its horrible when you're fighting something you can't land stuff on
09:37:16 <Hydrazine> Planning to go full archer, do the whole rapid shot/manyshot/deadly aim deal?
09:37:34 <Hydrazine> you mean like something that makes 5 or 6 saves in a row?
09:37:40 <Hydrazine> ....I know how you feel?
09:37:56 <Mort-> The only problems with javelins is they are melee weapons
09:38:08 <Mort-> Or something..
09:38:15 <Mort-> Loading them isn't a free action?
09:38:29 <yogsolidis> Yes hydra
09:39:00 <Mort-> But javelins are pretty cheap for starters
09:39:22 <Mort-> Also our urban ranger rocked the hourse down shooting
09:39:44 Shifter55 ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
09:39:49 <Hydrazine> he could draw them as part of a move.
09:39:56 Shifter55 has quit (Quit: Say What?)
09:40:00 <Hydrazine> So he can either move+draw+throw in one round.
09:40:01 <Mort-> I was reading an action to "counterspell" people trying to attempt to use charm person on him
09:40:08 <Hydrazine> Or not move+draw+throw in one round.
09:40:26 <yogsolidis> I'll primarily be melee slash spartan style until I can afford a good bow methinks.
09:40:27 <Mort-> Ill read rapid shot
09:40:29 <Hydrazine> Either way hes not suffering until level 6. By then he should have his superbadass shiny bow.
09:40:33 <Mort-> Yeah
09:40:38 <yogsolidis> Throw a javelin then get into melee
09:40:44 <Mort-> Ok
09:40:48 <Mort-> I don't like melee
09:40:49 <Hydrazine> With what? battleaxe?
09:41:04 <Mort-> Consider heavier armor
09:41:13 <yogsolidis> Haven't decided on the melee weapon
09:41:28 <Mort-> Maybe a breastplate when you can afford it
09:41:42 <Mort-> Or just use a chain shirt
09:41:42 <yogsolidis> Urban barb - lost prof with medium armor
09:41:51 <Mort-> Chain shirt
09:42:01 <Mort-> Magus standard gear
09:42:14 <Hydrazine> Did you know theres only one weapon in the book with a 19-20x3 crit?
09:42:20 <Mort-> If you do see my magus. You've been warned :p
09:42:27 <Mort-> What is it?
09:42:30 <yogsolidis> x_x
09:42:37 <Hydrazine> We discussed this before, mort.
09:42:49 <Hydrazine> Falcata, exotic.
09:43:56 <yogsolidis> How many characters do you guys have? ;p
09:44:05 * Hydrazine thinks.
09:44:09 <Hydrazine> 3 living and one dead.
09:44:19 <Mort-> God a lot
09:44:21 <Hydrazine> Though two haven't had much action at all.
09:44:41 <Hydrazine> I still have physical sheets for most of my homebrew 3.5 and other games.
09:44:45 <Mort-> 1 dead. 5 still around
09:44:59 <Mort-> I'm mostly not playing my sorc
09:45:46 <Mort-> Seems groups always don't have a use for arcane types
09:45:47 <Hydrazine> I think I rather bring Nearis out of mothballs than play Lyta, if I get the option and don't need the healing power.
09:46:03 <Mort-> Or groups always need someone to fiddle wand
09:46:09 <yogsolidis> I mostly DM, so I don't havea many characters. ;-;
09:46:28 <Mort-> So i usually end up playing some kind of melee
09:46:34 <yogsolidis> I have a gnome bard for someone elses homebrew campaign.
09:46:48 <yogsolidis> sandman archtype
09:47:15 <yogsolidis> I mentioned bard. Thus the crickets o=
09:47:33 <Mort-> The bad word
09:47:35 <Mort-> Gnome.
09:47:42 <Hydrazine> Mort's racist.
09:47:44 <yogsolidis> Pshaw. You'd like him.
09:47:54 <Hydrazine> You know why I really miss my fighter?
09:48:07 <yogsolidis> Is this gonna be a gnome punting joke?
09:48:09 <yogsolidis> Why? :o
09:48:18 <Hydrazine> Not because he was a big badass. Even though he was. Its because he was funny. My monk, hes not funny.
09:48:30 <yogsolidis> Heh
09:49:12 <Hydrazine> But a pair of barbarians with the teamwork feat for raging, would be totally sick.
09:49:18 <Hydrazine> ...maybe I need to make a barbarian.
09:49:36 <yogsolidis> A...gnome barbarian.
09:49:59 <Hydrazine> Little Man Syndrome?
09:50:02 <Hydrazine> No thanks.
09:51:08 <yogsolidis> So much hate.
09:51:32 <yogsolidis> I played a gnome barbarian once who got kicked out of his tribe for trying to mack on the chief's daughter.
09:51:40 <yogsolidis> He was dumb as hell.
09:52:05 <yogsolidis> But fun to play. O.o
09:53:21 [SW]Boomer ([email protected]) has left #d&d
09:53:43 <Hydrazine> Sounds fun.
09:54:02 <Hydrazine> How many barbarians do we have in circulation now, Mort?
09:56:54 <yogsolidis> Updated the character sheet with weapons and various edits. Thanks for the help Hydra
09:58:53 <yogsolidis> : d
09:58:56 <yogsolidis> Oops
10:00:20 <Mort-> Most of us don't have a sense of humor
10:00:30 <Mort-> I tell you all my characters don't
10:00:43 <Mort-> Well morts the closest with one
10:00:57 S712 ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
10:01:29 <Mort-> But our last convesation in character was funny
10:01:56 <Mort-> I'm a bounty hunter. I collect all kinds of weird bounties.
10:02:24 S712 has quit (Quit: For England, James?)
10:02:42 <Mort-> Then you were like - you'll tell me when a bounty for monastrey trained young pathfinders come up, won't you
10:02:43 <Mort-> Lol
10:03:00 <Mort-> We only have worth atm
10:03:07 <yogsolidis> Haha
10:03:15 <Mort-> Rp moments
10:03:42 <Mort-> Then my character was like. Maybe. Its easier to catch prey unprepared.
10:04:05 <Hydrazine> Welcome.
10:04:09 <Hydrazine> I try to help!
10:04:13 <Mort-> Funny moments yeah
10:04:23 <yogsolidis> He musta been like >_>;;
10:04:41 <Mort-> But seriously my faction mission does that to me
10:05:24 <Hydrazine> So you did settle on the battleaxe.
10:05:34 <Mort-> Not that i mind overly much
10:05:47 * Mort- looks at those big weapons and gets nervous
10:05:53 <yogsolidis> Yeah
10:05:59 <Mort-> I'm a small mur.
10:06:01 <yogsolidis> Has nice damage
10:06:06 <Mort-> Small so i get reach :p
10:06:16 <Mort-> You want or not want to use shield on it
10:06:50 <Hydrazine> I would suggest also that you have your attack and damage rolls written down somewhere for raging stats too.
10:06:54 <Hydrazine> Just to speed up gameplay.
10:06:58 <Hydrazine> Unless you're too pro to need it.
10:07:00 * Hydrazine shrugs.
10:07:18 <yogsolidis> I got them in a small notepad document I can bring up. Handy having two monitors.
10:07:24 <Hydrazine> Sweet.
10:07:29 <Hydrazine> I do something similar.
10:07:56 <Mort-> I use note pad
10:08:11 <yogsolidis> It'll be my first time playing online. I primarily play tabletop with friends.
10:08:26 <yogsolidis> Is there anyway I can spectate the next game maybe? Get a feel for it?
10:09:14 <Mort-> Next time we game then
10:09:28 <Hydrazine> Uh oh.
10:09:32 <Mort-> Think its sat
10:09:39 <Hydrazine> You're carrying alot on this guy. Maybe javelins are a bad idea...
10:09:39 <Mort-> What's up hydra?
10:09:54 <Mort-> I didn't look at character sheet
10:10:13 <Mort-> Being on mobile is hard to see things
10:10:22 <Mort-> Use a sling!
10:10:47 <yogsolidis> I never messed with weight in my games. Is being on a medium load gonna hurt?
10:11:04 <Mort-> 20 move speed
10:11:27 <yogsolidis> Jeez. That sucks.
10:11:37 <Mort-> Or maybe in your case 30 since your base speed is 40 with barb fast movement?
10:11:41 <Hydrazine> Yeah, part of the difference with society play is that theres alot less handwaving of rules. I didn't used to deal with it in homebrews either.
10:11:54 <Mort-> I don't know when barb movement kicks in
10:12:03 <yogsolidis> I don't have it since I'm an urban barb
10:12:26 <Mort-> Ok. I haven't studied barbs
10:12:39 * Mort- blushes
10:12:49 <yogsolidis> I'm thinking of ditching everything and keeping a battleaxe and shortbow. Iunno.
10:12:54 <Mort-> To be honest.. i don't study classes without magic
10:13:31 <Mort-> Id probably go shield and longsword instead but i guess I'm a chicken
10:13:41 * Mort- sqawks
10:14:10 * Mort- clucks as well
10:15:04 <Mort-> Watch out for sneaking magi who like to hide behind you :p
10:15:50 <Hydrazine> Oh!
10:16:00 <yogsolidis> Or, I don't change anything and just apply my rage bonus to STR at early levels? Boost my carry weight from a 15 str to 19. Hrm.
10:16:29 <Hydrazine> Screw the javelins, take chakram instead. 30ft range and 1d8s, and it cuts 10lbs, you fatty.
10:17:00 <yogsolidis> lol
10:17:02 <Hydrazine> Its also slashing, which is uncommon for ranged weapons and I think better.
10:17:04 <Mort-> Haha!
10:17:41 <Mort-> Master work backpack!
10:17:55 <Hydrazine> Drop the clubs, thats 12 more. So 22 from your original 94. 72?
10:17:56 Mort- has quit (EOF from client)
10:18:02 Mort- ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
10:19:00 <Mort-> Hi
10:19:06 <Mort-> Oh my tail didn't pop out
10:19:27 <Hydrazine> Scavenge the clubs if you need to. Pay attention to where those damn chakram end up.
10:19:36 <yogsolidis> I have never played with a Chakram..does the weapon return when thrown?
10:19:45 <yogsolidis> Ah, okay.
10:19:45 <Hydrazine> Only if you're Xena.
10:19:59 <Hydrazine> I don't think you're Xena.
10:20:06 <yogsolidis> Yeah, my character doesn't have boobs. So fail.
10:20:30 <Mort-> No. You need returning weapon property
10:20:34 <Mort-> Then they do!
10:20:37 <Hydrazine> Man, Jerus never worried about carry limits.
10:20:53 <Mort-> You see. For everything. There's a magical solution
10:20:59 <yogsolidis> If I was a normal barbarian I wouldn't be worrying about it either lol
10:21:03 <Hydrazine> He wore heavy armor anyway, and he capped out at 600lb.
10:21:09 <Mort-> Actually i don't worry about carry limits on hazak.
10:21:26 <Mort-> I worry his roc can't carry him and his gear ><
10:21:34 <Mort-> Lol
10:22:23 <yogsolidis> Bag of holding. Want.
10:22:44 <Mort-> Handy haversack
10:22:46 <Mort-> Cheaper
10:22:57 <Mort-> 2k gp only!
10:23:34 <yogsolidis> Damn rope is 10 pounds
10:23:45 <Mort-> Buy silk rope
10:23:49 <Mort-> Its 5 pounds
10:24:06 <yogsolidis> WHO NEEDS ROPE?! I'm Batman!
10:24:11 <yogsolidis> Good idea though. Hrm.
10:24:11 <Mort-> If youre really rich go for spider silk
10:24:19 <Mort-> 1 pound
10:24:27 <yogsolidis> How much is that
10:24:28 * Mort- helps with back packing
10:24:40 <Mort-> 10 gp on silk rope
10:24:42 <Hydrazine> Hoku is going to need to invest in some good rope.
10:25:11 <Mort-> I miss sushi
10:25:31 * Mort- is eyeing elven chain
10:25:33 <yogsolidis> Mmm. Sushi.
10:25:40 <Mort-> I have a lot of magic in me
10:25:47 <Mort-> Another player
10:26:16 <Mort-> If you drained me you would get a vial of mort magic
10:26:33 <Mort-> It'd be sapphire blue
10:27:04 <Mort-> I hate being a muggle :p
10:27:14 <Hydrazine> I've already said my bit about this.
10:27:22 <Mort-> Yeah :d
10:27:30 <Mort-> Magic makes life better!
10:27:41 * Mort- takes out a banner
10:28:13 <Mort-> And if you put me in an antimagic field id pine
10:28:45 <Mort-> Oh shit
10:29:02 <Mort-> Spider silk is 4 pounds and 100 gp
10:29:09 <Mort-> Stick with silk ropes
10:29:30 <Hydrazine> You get into light carry limit yet?
10:30:00 <yogsolidis> >_<
10:30:26 <kapow> where are you?
10:30:31 <Tashes> Radelaide
10:30:45 * Mort- believes she could probably learn to play a monk
10:30:47 <yogsolidis> I'm just too fat. I have to accept that.
10:30:55 <Mort-> :p
10:31:07 <yogsolidis> Could I safely ditch a grappling hook?
10:31:16 <yogsolidis> >_>
10:31:32 <Mort-> Don't
10:31:48 <Hydrazine> How close?
10:31:59 <Mort-> Last game i was trying to do the pirates of the carribean act
10:32:19 <Mort-> The throw grappling hook and shimmy across trick
10:32:32 <yogsolidis> 83 lb, haven't got the chakrams yet
10:32:40 <Mort-> Uh oh
10:32:45 <yogsolidis> So I'll be at 73
10:32:46 <kapow> i played like 2 sessions of a game in brisbane before our dm moved away :(
10:32:49 <yogsolidis> 4 away
10:32:51 <Mort-> Wheres all the weight coming from
10:33:03 <yogsolidis> Studded leather and the shield
10:33:08 <Mort-> Get a silk rope -5
10:33:11 <yogsolidis> I did
10:33:14 <yogsolidis> already
10:33:18 <yogsolidis> That is factored in
10:33:21 <Mort-> Get wooden shield
10:33:22 <Mort-> Don't use steel
10:33:26 <yogsolidis> It is wood
10:33:34 <Mort-> Uh oh.
10:34:24 <Hydrazine> Water? Who needs water?
10:34:32 <Mort-> Buy a master work backpack for 50 gp
10:34:33 <yogsolidis> I got it..ditch the explorer's suit and go naked. -8 lb.
10:34:39 <Mort-> Well hazak won't
10:34:43 <Mort-> Yeah!
10:35:05 <Mort-> Hydra you should be glad gms here don't account for rations
10:35:16 <Hydrazine> Hmm.
10:35:19 <Mort-> Because most of us don't carry any
10:35:23 <Tashes> I wonder if we could get an online group going..
10:35:23 <Tashes> hmm
10:35:23 <Mort-> But we should
10:35:42 <Hydrazine> I think, maybe you should just ask someone to carry your waterskin or grappling hook for you?
10:35:52 <kapow> you'd need a dm for that and it's not me i don't know enough
10:35:56 <Hydrazine> Jerus often carried things for the smaller party members.
10:36:07 * Mort- offers her backpack
10:36:13 <Hydrazine> Hes comfortable with the fact that his physique is his strongest asset.
10:36:16 <Mort-> I know. I dumped everything on you once
10:36:17 <yogsolidis> I think I can ditch the explorer's outfit and get something less fatty
10:36:38 <Mort-> 2 failed fort saves later...
10:36:46 <Tashes> i guess i almost could
10:36:54 <Tashes> i'll talk to some people :D
10:36:54 * Mort- is a lemur rug
10:37:26 <kapow> I have all the books for it so if you need something looked or or can't get a copy I'll find it for you
10:37:29 <yogsolidis> Artisian outfit -4 lb. Bingo.
10:37:29 <Mort-> I think i should introduce you to grull.
10:37:48 <kapow> if you can't get pdf's I'll try scan and make you a copy
10:37:49 <Mort-> You would probably like him :p
10:37:56 <yogsolidis> Is he...is scary?
10:38:06 <Mort-> He is a half orc
10:38:15 <Mort-> He lets people do the thinking for him
10:38:35 <Mort-> He likes animals.
10:38:54 <Mort-> And will play with everyone's familiars/animal companions
10:40:16 <Hydrazine> Lyta, my witch, thinks Grull is a swell guy.
10:40:41 <yogsolidis> That sounds scary.
10:40:51 <Mort-> Reggie is bunny!
10:41:33 <Hydrazine> Thats Sir Reginald to you.
10:41:54 <Mort-> Big word. Not speak good.
10:41:55 <yogsolidis> Pwnt.
10:42:03 <Mort-> Reggie is easier.
10:42:12 <Mort-> If reggie not mind?
10:42:28 * Mort- gives reggie a berry
10:42:33 <Tashes> I've got a few of them, and i can borrow ones i don't have :)
10:44:07 <Mort-> I usually bring him around when group needs a tank/ clw user
10:44:09 <Hydrazine> Dunno if I can replace how awesome Jerus wasd.
10:44:33 <Mort-> But its a little scary when your clw user goes around kicking ass.
10:44:39 * Mort- hugs hydra
10:45:31 <Hydrazine> My fighter's still on the site if you want to have a look.
10:45:40 <Mort-> I really think pfs encourages turtling
10:45:42 <yogsolidis> How can I find him
10:45:48 <Hydrazine> !findchar Jerus
10:45:50 <diebot> Hydrazine, Character: Jerus, number: 352( http://dnd.ballig.net/viewchar.php5?char=352 )
10:45:57 <yogsolidis> Thankee.
10:45:59 * Mort- sighs
10:46:07 <Hydrazine> Turtling, huh?
10:46:17 <Mort-> I think so..
10:46:22 <Hydrazine> Know what my latest considerations are, Mort?
10:46:27 <Mort-> ?
10:46:40 <Hydrazine> What I could do with a really shield focused person
10:47:08 <Sn0uu> why can't I use "nick" instead of "nickop" ?
10:47:20 <Mort-> Shield bash feats but i think you lose your shield bonus
10:47:42 <Mort-> Not sure if you get them back with later feats
10:48:05 <Mort-> Not really sure about rules of shield fighting
10:48:07 <Mort-> Too.
10:48:40 * Tashes shrug
10:48:45 <Hydrazine> You do, but thats not where I'd be going with ti.
10:48:47 <Mort-> Technically jerus should be behind a shield wall..while hammering around i think
10:49:01 <Mort-> But pfs doesn't work that way
10:49:03 <Hydrazine> But most of the time he ends up not needing one.
10:49:20 <Hydrazine> Or there isn't really space in the party for two pure melee.
10:49:31 <Hydrazine> Unless you're doing Fighter Party.
10:49:33 <Mort-> Like khaz should not have been stuck right in the melee mess with no room to maneuver ><
10:49:35 <Hydrazine> ...Which we did once.
10:49:40 * Mort- sighs
10:49:46 <Mort-> Yeah. And that bridge
10:50:08 <Mort-> What do you intend to do with shield anyway
10:50:35 <Hydrazine> Be amazing.
10:50:37 <Hydrazine> What else?
10:50:56 <Mort-> Details. Hydra. Devil is into the details
10:51:05 <Mort-> No captain america?
10:51:45 <Mort-> And a sorc pally should not be only tank in party
10:52:02 <Mort-> Everyone was wiggling fingers that day ><
10:52:03 <Hydrazine> Raise the AC of friendlies nearby. Take the damage for them directly if necessary.
10:52:10 <Sn0uu> hi Tasha
10:52:37 <Mort-> What feats to increase ac of friendlier
10:52:38 <Tashes> Hiya
10:52:39 <Mort-> S
10:52:50 <Tashes> We were just talking about a dark heresy game. Are you interested?
10:53:02 <Hydrazine> Saving shield.
10:53:03 <Mort-> And the damage bit. How? Shield other?
10:53:12 <Hydrazine> In harm's way.
10:53:44 <Sn0uu> possibly
10:53:48 <Mort-> Looking
10:53:51 Sachiru ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
10:54:01 <Sn0uu> I'd be interested in a game for sure :P
10:54:01 <Mort-> I think of magical solutions not feats
10:54:33 <Sn0uu> what time? Cuz i can only be on like now, an hour ago, and for another 5 hours from now
10:54:36 <Mort-> Ill check if i can pinch that idea
10:54:43 <yogsolidis> Had a phone call
10:54:48 <yogsolidis> Checking out your character
10:54:50 <Sn0uu> (timeframe wise, not "now" wise) :)
10:54:56 <yogsolidis> -tosses cookies-
10:54:57 <yogsolidis> >_>
10:55:15 <Tashes> Hm. I dunno. I'll ask around some more :)
10:55:17 <Hydrazine> And either get to use the shield to avoid area spells, or cut damage by half if they don't attack me.
10:56:21 <Mort-> I rather force people to attack me if you get my drift
10:56:25 <Mort-> That's for hazak
10:56:32 <Hydrazine> Antagonize?
10:56:36 <Mort-> For you know. All those reasons
10:56:40 <Mort-> Considering
10:56:47 <Hydrazine> There isn't much in the ways to make your enemy attack you.
10:56:55 <Hydrazine> In Harm's way sort of works.
10:57:00 <Hydrazine> if they're close enough.
10:57:01 <Mort-> Problem is how do you do that. When immune to mind affecting
10:57:13 <Hydrazine> But you gotta admit, cutting damage to them by half helps.
10:57:27 <Mort-> I heard this whole ap is all about immune to mind affecting
10:57:30 <Hydrazine> If they're gonna be targeted anyway, why not give them 4 more AC, and cut the damage?
10:57:40 <Mort-> Yup
10:58:31 <yogsolidis> Nice. Love the polearm master flavor
10:58:42 <yogsolidis> Is that from UC?
10:59:42 <Hydrazine> Yes.
11:00:16 <Hydrazine> He tripped on AoOs during surprise rounds at +16.
11:00:40 <Mort-> I can't dps hydra. Except for grull
11:01:00 <Mort-> Kalara is a glass canon and shouldn't be allowed near a melee mess
11:01:02 <Hydrazine> Which was really awesome when hes the front man and a number of enemies run in to try to flank, and end up on their asses a square away.
11:01:19 <Mort-> Don't intend to let her get close to one anyway
11:01:37 <Mort-> Which has given avatar tons of irritation
11:01:44 <Mort-> Yeah i love trip..
11:01:52 <Mort-> Pity ill never be good at it

11:49:50 <Avatar> are you playing on thursday
11:54:59 <MekkisScreen> contact wizards of the coast customer service
11:55:11 <MekkisScreen> also complain about the fact that they're dumbing down magic
11:55:33 <Brunius> But I haven't been around long enough to know that
11:55:48 <Brunius> As they would know since I'm activating a new DCI number
12:09:57 <Sn0uu> right, i need to see what time it is
12:11:38 <Sn0uu> i didn't bookmark the site it seems :(
12:11:52 <MekkisScreen> how is it a new DCI number
12:11:59 <MekkisScreen> you've been playing for years... right?
12:12:11 <Brunius> ...nope
12:28:52 <Avatar> it's in the topic man
12:29:00 <Avatar> you see it every time you join the channel
12:29:42 <Sn0uu> but thats your time
12:31:01 <Hydrazine> Pretty much the main reason I use the site, Sn0uu , is for the time conversion.
12:31:17 <Hydrazine> You set it up with your time zone, and it posts the schedule in local time for you.
12:32:07 <Avatar> the topic has our times, but the website is in the topic
12:34:28 <Sn0uu> ah, thx :)

12:37:47 <Sn0uu> and @ Mort - I'm "overseas" and can play :)
12:39:09 <Sn0uu> it keeps telling me to accept or decline the same invite, so if you have e-mail alerts, I'm sorry the system is being stupid >_<
12:41:10 <MekkisScreen> how many digits?
12:42:47 <Brunius> 10
12:43:01 <yogsolidis> Hey guys, I'm new and looking for a game. I left this on yesterday hoping to catch someone to talk to. How do I actually go about joining a game?
12:45:34 <Avatar> yogsolidis: have you played pathfinder?
12:46:19 <yogsolidis> Yes, I own all the books.
12:46:19 <MekkisScreen> hehe
12:46:30 <Avatar> got a pathfinder society character?
12:46:30 <yogsolidis> Played it pretty extensively
12:46:33 <yogsolidis> No
12:46:43 <yogsolidis> Never played in the society. Just homebrew campaigns
12:46:45 <Avatar> okay
12:47:00 <Avatar> you've got all the books, but do you have the Pathfinder Society Guide to Organised Play
12:47:18 <yogsolidis> I have it downloaded from like..two years ago?
12:47:31 <Avatar> get the latest version from paizo.com
12:47:42 <Avatar> the two year old one will be pretty obsolete
12:47:48 <yogsolidis> All right.
12:48:17 <Avatar> have a read through of everything here: http://www.pfrpg.com.au/newbie_guide.htm
12:48:23 <Avatar> and download everything it says to get
12:48:31 <Avatar> the PFS guide also has a link there
12:48:58 <Avatar> how good are you at creating your own character
12:49:09 <Hydrazine> if you're pretty sharp on pathfinder in general, making a pfs character should be cake, but we're here if you need us.
12:49:34 <Hydrazine> Oh, and don't flip if the IRC goes silent for a few hours. Happens. We show up eventually.
12:49:52 <Avatar> yeah you lasted 3 minutes without quitting, so you're already doing well
12:50:04 <yogsolidis> Hehe.
12:50:19 <yogsolidis> I got everything but the guide (the combat manager, etc)
12:50:34 <Avatar> are you good to create a character on your own or do you want some help
12:51:06 <yogsolidis> I'm good. Have 3-4+ years in the pathfinder system, primarily as a DM (hence why I'm looking to play).
12:51:31 <yogsolidis> Do I create it at level one (still getting the guide)
12:51:44 <Hydrazine> yes
12:52:44 <yogsolidis> My previous question though: How do I go about joining a game? After my character is created though.
12:53:29 <Avatar> I've sent you some invites
12:53:35 <Avatar> you can check the schedule on the site, or your email
12:53:55 <Hydrazine> Be here at the right time, mostly.
12:54:01 <Hydrazine> And stick around long enough.
12:54:03 <Avatar> that too
12:54:19 <yogsolidis> Thanks. :)
12:54:22 <Hydrazine> We have had some people who show up for game time, and then halfway through back out.
12:54:24 <Tashes> not being tash helps, too.
12:54:33 <Tashes> they tend to be a bit tashist.
12:54:34 <Hydrazine> you're always busy.
12:54:34 <Avatar> what's going on tashes
12:54:39 <Hydrazine> having a personal life and stuff.
12:54:48 <Tashes> not much Avatar. looking at getting a dark heresy game running here!
12:54:59 <Avatar> are you going to run it
12:55:00 <kapow> ^_^
12:55:06 <Tashes> i had a friend who wanted to DM, and a couple people here seemed interested
12:55:11 <kapow> I had no part in this person coming to this conclusion
12:55:11 <Tashes> Hopefully i can put the two together
12:55:13 <kapow> promise avatar
12:55:16 <Avatar> what's dark heresy
12:55:21 <kapow> 40k dnd
12:55:25 <kapow> on the d10 system
12:55:29 <Avatar> is it good
12:55:52 <Tashes> all the players are human Avatar, and its a lot darker and more mental than a combat-based game
12:56:09 <Avatar> what is it, roleplay-based?
12:56:09 <Hydrazine> I thought it was more d100
12:56:20 <Tashes> Bit of both.
12:56:23 <Avatar> I don't care if there's only a single race
12:56:39 <Tashes> i can send you the corebook if you like
12:56:43 <Avatar> please do
12:56:48 <Hydrazine> Its set in the 40k world, which is, really a shitty place to be.
12:56:50 <Avatar> or upload it somewhere and link
12:56:57 <kapow> avatar i actually have all the paper books too :D
12:57:01 <Avatar> I've never played 40k
12:57:04 <kapow> which is a first for me
12:59:42 <yogsolidis> The game time shown in this invite, is it according to the time I set on my profile?
12:59:58 <Avatar> yeah, should be
13:00:24 <Hydrazine> Does it say the same thing as the irc channel topic?
13:01:13 <yogsolidis> Yeah. It says 1pm + 10 GMT
13:01:37 <Avatar> check http://www.pfrpg.com.au/schedule.php5
13:01:41 <Avatar> and make sure you're logged in
13:02:18 <yogsolidis> Yeah. Okay. It says 1 pm.
13:02:26 <yogsolidis> I'm on ESt.
13:02:27 <yogsolidis> EST*
13:02:38 <Avatar> australian EST?
13:02:45 <yogsolidis> American
13:03:27 <Avatar> you haven't set up your timezone in your account options
13:03:50 <yogsolidis> Ohh. I forgot to hit save.
13:03:53 <yogsolidis> So it will be am
13:04:41 <yogsolidis> 11pm (adding 10 GMT)
13:04:42 <yogsolidis> Got it now.
13:04:51 <yogsolidis> Shouldn't be a problem, even still. I'm a night hawk over the summer.
13:05:05 <yogsolidis> Thanks!
13:05:05 <Avatar> love it
13:06:43 <Tashes> Hay!
13:08:08 <yogsolidis> Discovered the site on reddit. Some guy posted he was looking for a game and someone linked it in the comments.
13:12:57 <Mort-> Hello
13:17:32 <yogsolidis> hihi
13:30:16 <Tashes> :3
13:30:25 <Hydrazine> Hey look, people.
13:33:26 <yogsolidis> Ya.
13:35:25 <Hydrazine> Sup, Yog? Sort that barbarian out?
13:35:32 <Mort-> And murs
13:35:40 * Mort- murs around
13:35:49 <Hydrazine> Do you not think a pair of barbarians raging at +8 str and +8 con would be well, impressive?
13:37:54 * Tashes pets Mort-
13:38:03 <Hydrazine> I was looking, and I found something for you, Mort!
13:38:06 <yogsolidis> Yeah, I got him worked out
13:38:26 <Mort-> What?
13:38:36 <Hydrazine> http://www.amazon.com/The-Complete-Book-Cheese-ebook/dp/B004TIJJ2Y/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1341977902&sr=1-1&keywords=complete+book+of+cheese
13:38:38 * Mort- jumps on hydra
13:39:19 <Mort-> Totally awesome!
13:39:27 * Mort- hugs hydra
13:39:42 * Mort- shares the book with everyone!
13:40:19 <Mort-> It would. Because me and you. Hydra. Would end up playing those barbs
13:40:40 <Mort-> But to be honest i would love playing with team work feats
13:40:44 <yogsolidis> I can get that free on my kindle fire. sweeett
13:40:45 <Mort-> Should we? :p
13:41:21 <Mort-> First. Decide on two complimentary classes. Part 2. Both characters are not allowed to be played solo :p
13:41:28 <Hydrazine> I found it while specifically looking for free books.
13:41:44 <Hydrazine> Which includes the theory of relativity, and the origin of species, if you're curious.
13:43:07 <yogsolidis> I have so many things to read on my kindle...but why not. -delves deeper-
13:43:27 <Mort-> Do you mind having 2 characters that firstly we must say won't be around without each other,
13:43:28 <Mort-> ?
13:43:29 <Hydrazine> What sort of things do you read?
13:43:54 <Hydrazine> falchion and butterfly sting on one side, scythe on the other..
13:44:00 <Mort-> I don't mind running that way personally since my availabikity
13:44:03 <yogsolidis> Primarily fantasy, medical thrillers (robin cook), and stephen king.
13:44:04 <Mort-> Is ftw.
13:44:08 <Mort-> Just for you.
13:44:14 <Mort-> Rogue?
13:44:29 <Hydrazine> Has to be pair of barbarians.
13:44:30 <Mort-> Between us someone is going to have to cover clw
13:44:37 <Mort-> Oh shit
13:45:23 <Mort-> That great. Uh none of us can use that wand?
13:45:26 <Mort-> ><
13:46:59 <Hydrazine> Cool. I've read alot of Mr. King. Not too much lately.
13:47:11 <kapow> ugh sudden depressing urge to really play a game of d&D is setting in :/
13:47:19 <kapow> I'm freaking out avatar! I'm freaking out!
13:47:27 <Hydrazine> Though I did pick up Under the Dome not that long ago, and thoroughly enjoyed it.
13:47:28 <kapow> gotta get a fix
13:48:20 <yogsolidis> I just finished that. I thought it was pretty good
13:48:58 <yogsolidis> Been trying to get through Brandon Sanderson's The Way of Kings. It's taking me a long time to get through it. I keep putting it down >_<
13:50:59 <Hydrazine> oh my god.
13:51:01 <Hydrazine> Way of Kings.
13:51:05 <Hydrazine> I read it in like 2 days.
13:51:18 <Hydrazine> And then moaned about not having any more of it to read for weeks.
13:51:49 <Mort-> I still think for teamwork feats its either fighters or inquisitors
13:51:53 <Mort-> Maybe rogues
13:52:13 <yogsolidis> I'm like halfway through. Kaladin just survived the storm and Shallan just stole Jasnah's soulcaster
13:53:16 <Hydrazine> I think a big part of how I judge a fantasy/sci fi book now, is how eager I'd be to play a tabletop game set in it.
13:53:27 <yogsolidis> Ditto lol
13:53:34 <Hydrazine> I'd totally jump into a game there.
13:54:27 <Mort-> Way of kings by who?
13:54:32 <Hydrazine> Brandon Sanderson.
13:54:53 <Hydrazine> I couldn't put that one down. About the quickest reading I've done in a very long time.
13:55:20 <Mort-> Wow we have it in the library
13:55:54 <yogsolidis> I just keep getting distracted. I need to finish it. ;p
13:56:26 <Hydrazine> You're gonna be in one wicked book hangover.
13:57:23 <yogsolidis> Yeah, I think he's writing the last of the Wheel of Time novels too?
13:57:26 <yogsolidis> So it's gonna be a while
13:57:29 <Hydrazine> Yeah.
13:57:39 <Hydrazine> I couldn't get into Wheel of Time.
13:57:52 <yogsolidis> I read the first three books. I couldn't either. =\
13:58:03 <Hydrazine> Currently I'm reading some crazy ass book. Its taking me a while.
13:58:12 <Hydrazine> I think I got about 3 books in too.
13:58:15 <yogsolidis> Which one?
13:58:29 <Hydrazine> Only Revolutions. Mark Z. Danielewski.
13:59:27 <Hydrazine> The whole thing is in like this free form poetic verse style.
13:59:32 <Hydrazine> And thats just the start.
13:59:41 <yogsolidis> Never heard of it
13:59:45 <yogsolidis> Sounds bizarre o.o
13:59:49 <Mort-> Hm
13:59:57 <Hydrazine> The start of the crazy, not the start of the book
14:00:49 <Hydrazine> I'm only even trying it because I think hes immensely creative, for trying to bring innovation to print media. I think hes pretty unique.
14:01:00 tashphones ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
14:02:12 <Hydrazine> It is bizarre. But its making sense. Eventually. If you understand that on some topics, there simply isn't going to be detail.
14:03:59 <tashphones> Book's really messed you up, huh?
14:04:16 <Hydrazine> I'm just under halfway through, physically.
14:04:24 <Mort-> Uh...
14:04:29 <Hydrazine> Which I think equates to 2/3rds or so.
14:04:30 <yogsolidis> Was reading about it. Sounds interesting
14:04:36 * Mort- has very specific tastes.
14:04:42 <yogsolidis> Go on ;p
14:04:50 <Mort-> Fantasy. Lots of magic
14:04:52 <Mort-> Lets in
14:04:53 <Mort-> In
14:05:01 <Hydrazine> Well.. The front half of the book is longer than the last half.
14:05:02 <Mort-> Go
14:05:05 <Hydrazine> ...Yeah.
14:05:10 <yogsolidis> Well, aren't you magical.
14:05:16 <Mort-> No politics please
14:05:28 <yogsolidis> ?
14:05:35 <yogsolidis> Is that book about politics?
14:05:36 <yogsolidis> o;
14:05:41 <Mort-> I am. Me without magic = one limp mort
14:05:42 <tashphones> The book is a wizard, harry
14:05:51 <Hydrazine> ^
14:06:13 <Hydrazine> Show me another book where I can say, honestly, that the first 180 pages really are longer than the last 180 pages.
14:06:15 <Mort-> I don't really get into political intrigue
14:06:21 * tashphones does like limp things :)
14:06:26 <tashphones> Doesn't*
14:06:26 <Mort-> Nope
14:06:33 <Mort-> I can't function without magic
14:06:36 <Mort-> :p
14:07:08 * Mort- pines in an antimagic field
14:07:29 <Hydrazine> Oh, Tash.
14:07:32 <Hydrazine> I found the soundtrack for it.
14:07:37 <Hydrazine> But I haven't given it a go yet.
14:07:55 <tashphones> Ooh
14:08:02 <Mort-> I don't do sci fi much either
14:08:05 <tashphones> Whos it by?
14:08:14 <Mort-> No horror stories. I want my sleep
14:08:20 <Hydrazine> Biffy Clyro. No idea.
14:08:25 <Mort-> Don't want to dream of a troll under my bed
14:08:28 * tashphones shrugs
14:08:51 <Hydrazine> But the title of the album matches, and atleast two of the track titles seem appropriate.
14:08:59 <Hydrazine> Maybe more of them will when I get further into the book.
14:09:18 <Hydrazine> What about an evil jacuzzi, Mort?
14:09:33 <tashphones> Do the songs use functional sentences?
14:09:43 <yogsolidis> Some do
14:09:50 <Hydrazine> Haven't gotten there yet.
14:10:52 <yogsolidis> Oh
14:10:54 <yogsolidis> Lol
14:11:08 <Hydrazine> But I am starting to think that some of the elements of the book are intentional misdirection.
14:11:12 <yogsolidis> I thought you asked if songs use functional sentences. Lol. >_< Didn't realize you were talking about the book
14:11:15 <Hydrazine> Only there to make me wonder if its important.
14:11:23 <Hydrazine> No, shes asking about the soundtrack FOR the book.
14:11:26 <yogsolidis> I'm getting tiirred
14:11:32 <yogsolidis> Yeah
14:11:32 <Mort-> No no and no
14:11:48 <yogsolidis> Wow. I shut up nao.
14:11:49 <yogsolidis> Heh.
14:12:19 <tashphones> Lol
14:12:38 <tashphones> All good yog :) where you from?
14:12:48 <yogsolidis> South Carolina.
14:12:49 <yogsolidis> US
14:12:56 <tashphones> :O
14:13:01 <tashphones> More Americans
14:13:02 <Mort-> Sg
14:13:05 <Mort-> Singapore
14:13:27 <Mort-> Like a fuzzy mur should be
14:13:32 <yogsolidis> Hehe.
14:13:35 <tashphones> Second question: are you, have you been, or do you intend to be, a military type?
14:13:46 <yogsolidis> No. I teach high school.
14:13:55 <Hydrazine> Huh. What do you teach?
14:13:59 <yogsolidis> History
14:14:01 <tashphones> Yay, finally a real person
14:14:05 <Mort-> Oh dear
14:14:17 <Mort-> You would be good at handling lemurs.
14:14:19 <yogsolidis> I just graduated last year
14:14:29 <Mort-> They act like little kids :p
14:14:36 <tashphones> Congrats!
14:14:44 <Mort-> When they get excited they don't speak in complete sentences
14:14:59 <yogsolidis> What about you tash?
14:15:06 <Hydrazine> Shes an Aussie!
14:15:07 <Mort-> History is ok though i prefer geog
14:15:08 <Hydrazine> Oy oy oy!
14:15:20 <tashphones> I terrorise hydra.
14:15:28 <Hydrazine> you know, by now.. the audio at http://www.onlyrevolutions.com/ sounds perfectly reasonable.
14:15:33 <Mort-> No you don't
14:15:43 <Hydrazine> Shows what you know.
14:15:47 <Hydrazine> She totally trolls me.
14:15:53 <Hydrazine> She Shen ults in just to KS me.
14:15:54 <tashphones> Yeah, Im an aussie. Phone autocorrects to Russia.
14:15:58 <yogsolidis> That's okay Mort, I can decode sentences that are not complete. Sometimes. Comes with the job. o=
14:16:05 <Mort-> But. She's so fuzzy
14:16:09 <Mort-> She can't do that
14:16:17 <yogsolidis> Which part of Aussieland?
14:16:18 <Mort-> Ask hydra what happened yesterday
14:16:26 <[SW]Boomer> D&D, then you may want to try another channel?
14:16:28 <tashphones> Adelaide.
14:16:34 <tashphones> What happened yesterday?
14:16:42 <yogsolidis> At least you got the shield from the shen alt.
14:16:49 <yogsolidis> Ayee.
14:16:51 <Mort-> I don't believe tashes would do mean things to you
14:17:01 <tashphones> I travel a lot yog, adelaide is a grandma state.
14:17:05 <Mort-> Anyway I'm calm today
14:17:13 <yogsolidis> Ahh.
14:17:14 <Hydrazine> But she does it when I'm Solaf and was wrecking some nub.
14:17:28 <Mort-> Solaf?
14:17:33 <Mort-> Friendly fire?
14:17:35 <Hydrazine> Or when I'm Horseman and fed.
14:17:43 <yogsolidis> Yorick?
14:17:44 <Mort-> Friendly fire.
14:17:52 * Mort- ticks checkbox
14:18:00 <Hydrazine> Nah. I don't play Yorick. Yet anyway.
14:18:15 <tashphones> I did it because summoned tp was on cd and dammit Im shen so i go where i please
14:18:19 <yogsolidis> Oh, the horse guy. Hecar or something
14:18:24 <Hydrazine> I used to play alot of Jarvan. Until his ult got bloody useless, and even thinking his name means the whole enemy team has flash.
14:18:38 <Mort-> Oh that guy.
14:18:56 <yogsolidis> I typically jungle. Heavily. At least for 300+ wins currently. Rusty though. I haven't played in a while.
14:18:57 <Mort-> Btw tashes is a divination specialist wizard
14:19:05 <tashphones> I think i want urgot babe.
14:19:07 <Mort-> With foresight
14:19:11 <Steven> Hello peoples.
14:19:13 <Hydrazine> You can't play Urgot.
14:19:23 <tashphones> Why not?
14:19:24 <Hydrazine> I thought your next one was.. Um. Not Urgot.
14:19:30 <Hydrazine> Because hes an AD caster.
14:19:33 <Mort-> So if she tells you to play a particular lol champion you do it
14:19:34 <Mort-> Ad?
14:19:36 <Steven> I am back from Paizocon
14:19:36 <tashphones> So?
14:19:44 <yogsolidis> Ezreal <3
14:19:46 <Hydrazine> You don't play AD casters.
14:19:50 <tashphones> Fag
14:20:08 <yogsolidis> Ezreal is my favorite AD caster.
14:20:12 <tashphones> That's the point. I need an ad.
14:20:22 <Mort-> Hydra followed tashes advice and pwned the other side so hard
14:20:34 <Hydrazine> It happens once a day, usually.
14:20:41 <Hydrazine> She says "Hey, you should play X".
14:20:47 <Hydrazine> So I do. And then I rock their faces.
14:20:59 <yogsolidis> ^-^;
14:21:00 <Hydrazine> Like ending up solo top Nasus against an AP shaco.
14:21:03 <Hydrazine> Poor bastard.
14:21:08 <Mort-> I told you its foresight
14:21:10 <Hydrazine> Q-farmed his traps yo.
14:21:14 <Mort-> Once per day use ability
14:21:27 <yogsolidis> Who the hell, AP Shaco? What level are you guys
14:21:33 <tashphones> Today its cho, btw
14:21:58 <tashphones> Unranked, about 700 wins each
14:22:29 <yogsolidis> Nice
14:22:31 <Hydrazine> Nah, you're at like 750.
14:22:38 <Hydrazine> I'm still under 500
14:22:51 * tashphones shrug
14:23:04 <tashphones> Yog they have aram mode now
14:23:17 <yogsolidis> I stopped playing during the spring. My classes/kids got time consuming.
14:23:19 <Hydrazine> But I play more junglemumu and xin, with a bit of AP carry and solo top action.
14:23:39 <yogsolidis> I love jungle amumu. *-*
14:23:44 <yogsolidis> aram mode?
14:23:53 <Mort-> Oh another amumu
14:24:03 <Mort-> Weren't you doing him the other day?
14:24:09 <Hydrazine> And some cap'n teemo. Cause hes hybrid. And bunny teemo makes tashes rofl.
14:24:20 <Mort-> Then you were doing a canon hammer guy too
14:24:30 <Hydrazine> Yeah.
14:24:48 <yogsolidis> We should play some day. I'm gonna be rusty as hell though.
14:24:59 <Hydrazine> I'm Hydrazine there too. Easy to find me.
14:25:11 <yogsolidis> mine is runekiev
14:25:21 <Mort-> I'm not any use
14:25:33 <tashphones> Aram - all random all mid. You get instalocked a champ, he map only has one lane, and there's some items you can't use.
14:25:34 <Mort-> Too slow reflexes. Totally untrained
14:25:38 <Hydrazine> hey, tash.. POOPS EGGS.
14:25:48 <yogsolidis> Interesting. Lol
14:25:53 <tashphones> Also there's a od on this bus called arya
14:25:56 <tashphones> Kid*
14:25:58 <[SW]Boomer> <- Jealous
14:26:10 <Hydrazine> Ask her if winter's coming.
14:26:11 <Steven> It was fun, but super tiring
14:26:16 <Steven> i slept 11 hours in 4 days
14:26:23 <tashphones> Can't. Laughing.
14:26:35 <tashphones> Floppy ears!
14:26:44 <Hydrazine> And hes bouncy.
14:26:50 <yogsolidis> Arya is like the best character, evar.
14:26:57 <[SW]Boomer> and now 12 hours in one day :)
14:26:58 <Hydrazine> This is known.
14:27:19 <Steven> actually, i slept from around 7pm yesterday to 11:30am today
14:27:23 <Hydrazine> I dunno how long you been gone, Yog, but theres a champ now who says Winter is Coming when selected.
14:27:26 <yogsolidis> Sigh. I still have to read the last book released in that series.
14:27:35 <Steven> and im pretty sure i could go and sleep
14:27:38 <Steven> a bit mroe
14:27:41 <Hydrazine> I'd say no rush.
14:27:48 <yogsolidis> Yeah, Seljuni? The girl who rides the bear. I unlocked her
14:27:49 <Hydrazine> Book 6 probably has atleast 5 years to go.
14:27:57 <Steven> but sam woke me and to tell me goodbye before work
14:28:14 <Hydrazine> Boar. There is a bear. He'd probably get pissed if someone tried to ride him.
14:28:15 <Steven> so, i decided i needed to wake up
14:28:15 <yogsolidis> I jungled with her a lot when she came out
14:28:21 <Steven> How was your weekend?
14:28:32 <yogsolidis> Oh yeah. Volibear. I used to play him too. Probably why I got them confused
14:28:49 <Steven> btw, got some boons while i was at paizocon
14:29:21 <tashphones> Voli is my jungle.
14:29:29 <Hydrazine> Tash doesn't jungle much.
14:29:31 <yogsolidis> Gotta gank early with him
14:29:35 <yogsolidis> How do I aquire a PFS number? Looked all over this website.
14:29:35 <Hydrazine> She usually Shens stuff.
14:29:39 <tashphones> Sej is cool too. Because winter is coming. And the pigs name is bristles
14:29:40 <Steven> i can now be a Ifriti, Fetchling, or some lizard folk whos name i can never remember
14:29:40 <Hydrazine> Because Shen's everywhere.
14:29:45 <yogsolidis> Shen was a beast before I left
14:29:52 <yogsolidis> Najani or something like that
14:29:52 <tashphones> Still is
14:29:54 <Hydrazine> She thinks the piggy is cute.
14:29:57 <yogsolidis> Nagjani
14:29:58 <Steven> yeah thats the one
14:30:02 <Hydrazine> Hes the most banned champion in ranked right now.
14:30:02 <yogsolidis> Hee ;3
14:30:04 <Hydrazine> 90%.
14:30:10 <yogsolidis> DAmn.
14:30:12 <tashphones> Most called champ anywhere, shen
14:30:14 <Steven> and i got a free townhouse in absolom
14:30:15 <Hydrazine> ...Yeah.
14:30:17 <tashphones> Banned*
14:30:18 <Steven> boosh!
14:30:19 <yogsolidis> Whew. That's crazy. Lots of red bull, eh?
14:30:20 <yogsolidis> Went from zero to hero.
14:30:25 <Hydrazine> Its pretty much global.
14:30:36 <Hydrazine> I think Nordic servers ban Morgana slightly more than Shen.
14:30:43 <Steven> alright.... so pfs number
14:30:58 <Hydrazine> Which makes them unusual. I think it just means theres alot of Nords with a wicked Morg game.
14:31:24 <Steven> do you have an account at paizo.com?
14:31:27 <yogsolidis> I'm the LoL reddit. I see they are tweaking the stealth champs Twitch and Eve
14:31:32 <Hydrazine> Thats the funny thing.. I think he was fine before.
14:31:33 <yogsolidis> I'm on*
14:31:35 <Hydrazine> Are they?
14:31:37 <Hydrazine> huh.
14:31:52 <yogsolidis> Yes
14:31:55 <Hydrazine> Not surprised really. Very uncommon champs from what I see.
14:32:08 <yogsolidis> I've played PF a lot, just never the PFS stuff.
14:32:10 <Steven> okay, along the top righthand side of the site, you will see a link to your account
14:32:12 <Hydrazine> I just want Jarvan and Sona fixed.
14:32:23 <tashphones> Too many poptarts. Motion sick. Bbl.
14:32:25 <yogsolidis> Clicked
14:32:41 <tashphones> Sona <3 :(
14:33:05 <Hydrazine> Tash, you should play maokai.
14:33:08 <Steven> sorry phone call!
14:33:09 <Hydrazine> So we can Xinkai stuff.
14:33:13 <yogsolidis> Npnp.
14:33:16 <yogsolidis> I hate Maokai's alt
14:33:23 <yogsolidis> Otherwise I'd jungle with him
14:33:28 <yogsolidis> ult*
14:33:29 <yogsolidis> not alt
14:33:38 <Hydrazine> better than Jarvan's.
14:33:46 <Steven> okay, so there should be a 'box' that has PATHFINDER SOCIETY
14:33:59 <Hydrazine> Best case its just no help. Worse case it gets my team killed.
14:33:59 <yogsolidis> Did they nerf it or something?
14:34:08 <yogsolidis> The site is taking forever to load for whatever reason.
14:34:21 <Steven> its post paizocon flood
14:34:30 <Steven> well, really its post any convention flood
14:34:44 <yogsolidis> Ughh.
14:34:45 <Steven> they have a lot of people checking the site
14:34:46 <Hydrazine> They didn't nerf it directly, but more and more of the kind of champs you'd target with it... can just leave.
14:35:07 <Mort-> Teleport
14:35:18 <yogsolidis> And everyone takes flash
14:35:18 <yogsolidis> lol
14:36:03 <Mort-> Kind of stupid when your ulti is so easily countered
14:36:04 <yogsolidis> As for uploading a character sheet...do I create a .txt file and upload that for the character?
14:36:50 <Steven> where are you uploading it to?
14:36:51 <Hydrazine> Ezreal. Kat. Yi. Graves. Fizz. Ahri. Akali. Cait. Fiora. Corki. leblanc...
14:37:06 <Hydrazine> Riven, Nid...
14:37:20 <yogsolidis> pfrpg.com.au
14:37:38 <yogsolidis> Yep.
14:37:50 <Hydrazine> I think its really simple. Just slap a short stun on the target.
14:38:04 <Hydrazine> Give me atleast a full second before the bastard can jump out.
14:38:25 <Steven> you'll have to talkt o ballig or avatar for that
14:38:30 <yogsolidis> An AOE stun when it goes down for 1 second
14:38:46 <Hydrazine> I don't even need it to be an AoE stun. I'd settle for single target.
14:39:12 <Hydrazine> Because I'm usually not trying to catch alot of people. I just want one bastard to have to sit there and deal with some Jarvan for a while.
14:39:21 <yogsolidis> Yeah.
14:39:40 <yogsolidis> He is pretty good at dominating his lane too
14:39:47 <Hydrazine> Yeah.
14:39:55 <Hydrazine> I usually win top with him.
14:40:03 mortswishytail ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
14:40:04 <yogsolidis> I like Mundo top!
14:40:07 Mort- has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
14:40:08 <Hydrazine> Unless its a good Yorick.
14:40:29 <Hydrazine> I don't play mundo because I can't use his ult properly.
14:40:50 <Hydrazine> Kinda like how I don't play lee sin because I can't use any of his buttons properly.
14:41:26 <yogsolidis> Lee Sin is my second favorite to use after Shyvana
14:41:29 <yogsolidis> in the Jungle
14:41:43 <yogsolidis> I don't like him in the late game though.
14:42:01 <Hydrazine> I jungle with mumu, xin, olaf, udyr and horseman.
14:42:17 <yogsolidis> Those are all strong junglers there.
14:42:33 <Hydrazine> Xin's definately the slowest of those though.
14:42:39 <Hydrazine> But his ganks are pretty strong.
14:42:41 <yogsolidis> I got my number. Thanks for the help
14:43:13 <Hydrazine> I think Olaf is better off in top lane, crushing people with that true damage.
14:43:14 <Steven> no prob
14:43:27 <yogsolidis> Olaf is awesome
14:43:48 <Hydrazine> Plus I find hes really difficult to gank with in his high mobility carry era.
14:43:53 <Hydrazine> yeah, a .txt file is fine.
14:44:06 <Hydrazine> theres a template on the site for an example.
14:44:17 <Hydrazine> Like earlier. I was junglaf with an enemy singed top and nid/ez bot.
14:44:19 <yogsolidis> Yeah, I saw that. Was just making sure of the format (txt).
14:44:31 <Hydrazine> I couldn't gank shit. Once nid hits a bush shes gone.
14:44:32 <Steven> So during the grand convocation
14:44:45 <yogsolidis> Yeah. I can't stand her >_<
14:44:47 <Steven> My character Ausk got sent to another plane of existance by prismatic spray
14:45:09 <Steven> and the Gm was like oh my god im so sorry, blah blah blah
14:45:24 <Tashes> oh no
14:45:28 <yogsolidis> Dat spear.
14:45:34 <Hydrazine> I'm getting increasingly frustrated with how outragously fast she is.
14:45:54 <Steven> and im like, dont be, its totaly fine
14:45:55 <yogsolidis> Luckily her late game sucks ass.
14:46:33 <Steven> and everyone at the table was looked at me like i was crazy because i wasnt upset my character was effectively dead for the scenario
14:46:46 <Tashes> but then he came back as a demonhost?
14:46:58 <Hydrazine> Not if you get massacred early and midgame.
14:47:12 <Steven> at the end of the scenario, got myself located through scrying type means, plane shifted back, with a bunch of junk
14:47:20 <yogsolidis> Her poke will be strong late game with her Q, but besides that she'll be useless in a team fight
14:47:28 <Steven> and the gm was like, why do you have all this crap with you
14:48:07 <mortswishytail> Any entangle?
14:48:08 mortswishytail has quit (EOF from client)
14:48:16 <Steven> and i was like because im a pirate sir, while i was over there i engaged in piracy of the most grandest sort, just like the blessed Goddess Besmara
14:48:22 <Tashes> rofl
14:48:49 <Steven> btw, Day job check to put it all on my caravan and sell it to the highest bidders across the land...
14:49:02 <Hydrazine> Yeah. If you catch her, you catch her.
14:49:04 Mort- ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
14:49:12 <Mort-> Ok i hid my tail
14:49:18 <Steven> and then the table laughed
14:49:26 <yogsolidis> Is the tail magical?
14:49:26 <Hydrazine> But shes got more range than the entangles, and shes quick enough to leave before you get close to use it.
14:49:51 <Steven> i got max gold... yet again lol
14:50:10 <Hydrazine> So she floats around just a bit too far off, throwing these doom-spears at you.
14:50:11 <Mort-> I tucked it under my suit
14:50:15 <Steven> door brb
14:50:29 <Mort-> Stun + entangle
14:50:42 <Hydrazine> Stuns have similar ranges, for the most part.
14:50:49 <Mort-> Can see myself playing her :p
14:50:59 <yogsolidis> Iunno. Aside from ganking her, I've never had much problems with her.
14:51:22 <Hydrazine> Usually the answer for how to deal with Nid, involves ignoring her lategame.
14:51:25 <Mort-> Or blink entangle
14:52:19 <Hydrazine> Kill the rest of her team.
14:52:39 <Hydrazine> She either stays away and doesn't help, or she gets close enough to help and you give her some killing too.
14:52:47 <yogsolidis> Just can't let her endlessly poke at your team. Engage in a team fight and she's useless.
14:52:52 <Avatar> zzzz
14:53:02 <yogsolidis> WAKE UP
14:53:03 <yogsolidis> :o
14:54:58 <yogsolidis> or not.
14:55:24 <Mort-> Lol
14:55:43 <Hydrazine> whats great, yog.
14:55:58 <Hydrazine> is if you get lulu to ult on pharoah amumu.
14:56:07 <yogsolidis> lol
14:56:08 <Hydrazine> he gets a RIDICULOUSLY HUGE HEAD.
14:56:11 <Hydrazine> And then he bonks things with it.
14:56:15 <yogsolidis> I gotta youtube that
14:56:21 <Mort-> And?
14:56:52 <Mort-> Didn't know you can affect other champions physical attributes
14:56:57 <Hydrazine> And he turns the whole enemy team into hamburger.
14:57:12 <Brunius> all I saw was "ridiculously huge head" T.T
14:57:17 <Hydrazine> Sure. Not everyone can, but its not that uncommon.
14:57:19 <Brunius> Gutter mind, Go!
14:57:32 <Hydrazine> Most of the healers can give some kind of beneficial effect.
14:57:43 <Sn0uu> boo
14:57:52 <yogsolidis> Trundle steals stats with his ult I believe
14:57:57 <Hydrazine> Yep.
14:58:35 <Hydrazine> Mord steals health.
14:58:53 <Hydrazine> Chogath steals souls.
14:58:59 <Hydrazine> And eats them,
14:59:03 <yogsolidis> YOUR soul is mine!
15:00:32 * Mort- likes her soul
15:00:34 <Hydrazine> nunu/warwick double jungle got pretty famous because they both give eachother attack speed buffs.
15:00:38 * Mort- guards it
15:01:43 <yogsolidis> The one time I did double jungle (simply because the person who drafted below me was hell bent on jungling) we ended up winning lol
15:01:46 <Hydrazine> Jarvan can give all of his friendlies armor. Everyone likes armor.
15:02:42 <yogsolidis> Armor sehr gut.
15:02:47 <MekkisScreen> Hydrazine: give me some armour
15:03:06 * Mort- throws mekkis a trench coat
15:03:19 <Mort-> And you don't blow torch me today
15:03:36 <MekkisScreen> File.size() breaks on broken symlinks
15:04:47 <Hydrazine> I don't think you play, Mek. I can't give you armor.
15:05:28 <Mort-> He nethacks

15:15:59 <Mort-> Uh a question for you hydra
15:16:54 <Hydrazine> Go on.
15:17:12 <yogsolidis> Is there any way to save this drop boxed file pdf to my desktop?
15:17:47 <Hydrazine> ohshit
15:19:02 <Avatar> yeah
15:19:40 <yogsolidis> Hell, I'll play this.
15:19:48 <Mort-> Lets say monster 1 moves close to me. I get an aoo with spear.
15:20:00 <Mort-> I miss. He is next to me.
15:20:24 <Mort-> He hits me. Or tries to. And misses.
15:20:37 <Mort-> Snake fang gives me an aoo
15:20:48 <Hydrazine> Only if you threaten.
15:20:50 <Mort-> Clearly i can't spear him anymore
15:20:59 <Mort-> Improved unarmed strike
15:21:14 <Mort-> So how will it play out. You know i have combat reflexes
15:21:21 <Hydrazine> Only as a monk does that count, by the way.
15:21:42 <Mort-> Besides i wear a cestus as well
15:21:46 <Hydrazine> you hit him and life goes on.
15:21:56 <Mort-> At full bab?
15:22:02 <Mort-> Or twf fighting rules
15:22:06 <Hydrazine> AoOs are always at full bab.
15:22:39 mortswishytail ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
15:22:39 Mort- has quit (EOF from client)
15:22:54 <mortswishytail> Even when using 2 different weapons
15:23:39 <Hydrazine> If you're holding a whip in one hand and a dagger in the other, you can make AoOs with the dagger.
15:23:43 <mortswishytail> So as a monk i can choose to aoo him with my cestus still. Or use an improved unarm strike (elbow or kick)
15:23:55 <mortswishytail> No twf?
15:23:56 <Hydrazine> Similarly, on your turn, you can attack with either the dagger, or the whip, without penalty. but not both. Agree?
15:24:16 <mortswishytail> Yes
15:24:28 <[SW]Boomer> Now that's funny right there.
15:24:35 <[SW]Boomer> Hello Hydrazine!
15:24:42 <Hydrazine> hey boomer
15:24:49 <mortswishytail> If i wanted to i can make 3 attacks in one round?
15:24:50 <Hydrazine> If you aren't trying to attack more than your bab allows, it doesn't matter how many weapons you're holding, you aren't using twf rules.
15:24:57 <mortswishytail> Ah ok
15:25:04 <mortswishytail> If i used twf rules
15:25:13 <Hydrazine> it doesn't help your AoOs.
15:25:27 <mortswishytail> I see
15:25:30 <MekkisScreen> can't AoO with a whip
15:25:30 <mortswishytail> That's interesting
15:25:41 <mortswishytail> Yeah but dagger threatens
15:25:42 <Hydrazine> I never suggested that you could, Mekkis.
15:25:50 <mortswishytail> You threaten with a dagger next to you
15:26:00 <mortswishytail> So you would probably shove a dagger up him
15:26:03 <Steven> what hydra no hello for me?
15:26:21 <Hydrazine> So ausk is rich?
15:26:30 <Hydrazine> I think the only way twf affects AoOs, is high up in the two weapon fighter archetype.
15:26:37 <mortswishytail> Basically i have my cestus, and later my unarmed strike
15:26:41 <mortswishytail> Oh my
15:26:48 <Avatar> ambidexterity was such a stupid feat
15:26:49 <Steven> well he isnt poor
15:26:58 <mortswishytail> I could punch a monster. Kick him. And then bite him
15:26:58 <Avatar> why did they want you to take two feats to be able to use 2 weapons
15:27:07 <Steven> he owns a caravan, a townhouse, a ship and has like 38 prestige
15:27:19 <mortswishytail> Of course i probably wouldn't because of the horrible penalties
15:27:47 <Hydrazine> Yeah, a 13th level fighter archetype gets to take AoOs with both weapons.
15:28:03 <mortswishytail> Ok if you are making two melee attacks. Does that mean you can trip 2 people a round?
15:28:22 * [SW]Boomer waves to Steven
15:28:27 <mortswishytail> Say you twf two daggers. Can you trip 2 people?
15:28:33 <Steven> sup boomer
15:28:44 <[SW]Boomer> Livin' the good life here in Paradise.
15:28:55 <[SW]Boomer> Nice eye-candy, great weather. Life is good.
15:29:17 <mortswishytail> Trip is a combat maneuver that can be used in place of a melee attack
15:29:18 <Steven> Congrats, im living the mediocre life here in pergatory
15:31:04 <mortswishytail> Hm
15:31:35 <mortswishytail> I do have the dex to twf well
15:31:36 <mortswishytail> Just that i rather use shield
15:32:01 <Hydrazine> Technically I think its legal, even though I don't think I like it.
15:32:38 <Sn0uu> i live in an igloo!
15:32:44 <Hydrazine> If it was disarm or sunder, I'd have no problem with it.
15:33:03 <mortswishytail> I could possibly trip attempt the first person with a cestus. Then trip person 2 with my foot?
15:33:07 <mortswishytail> Now
15:33:16 <Hydrazine> In analysis, I think its because I consider those two to be something you are clearly doing directly with the weapon.
15:33:30 <mortswishytail> How do you trip someone with a cestus though
15:33:37 <mortswishytail> That one i can't imagine
15:33:41 <mortswishytail> Your foot i can
15:33:54 <mortswishytail> Just sweep his foot from under him
15:34:17 <Hydrazine> I don't think you could do both in the same round.
15:34:30 <Hydrazine> Mostly because you cannot apply twf rules to unarmed attacks without using flurry.
15:35:09 <mortswishytail> Can i punch a person with a cestus and kick him in his ribs all in the same round,g
15:35:10 <mortswishytail> ,g
15:35:11 <mortswishytail> ?
15:35:20 <[SW]Boomer> I love igloos', crunchy on the outside, chewy on the inside.
15:35:26 <Hydrazine> What lets you perform the kick?
15:35:31 <mortswishytail> Twf will come in of course
15:35:40 <mortswishytail> Improved unarmed strike?
15:35:54 <Hydrazine> ..What did I just say?
15:36:07 <mortswishytail> You can't?
15:36:22 <Hydrazine> So lets say I make a level 1 fighter and take IUS.
15:36:26 <mortswishytail> I keep thinking unarmed strike as a light weapon
15:36:27 <Hydrazine> Can I make 2 attacks a round?
15:36:43 <mortswishytail> I thought you could?
15:36:48 <mortswishytail> Sorry.
15:37:25 <mortswishytail> But how do unarmed attacks work with Nat attacks then
15:37:38 <Hydrazine> Well, hm. I have to get more specific about it.
15:37:42 <mortswishytail> I could drop my spear and kick him. Then bite?
15:37:47 <mortswishytail> Toothy.
15:37:56 <mortswishytail> Half orc trait
15:38:16 <Hydrazine> Option A: Not a monk, you can take IUS and TWF and punch things both handed, but you can't kick.
15:38:20 <mortswishytail> God I'm going to function like an animal before this is over
15:38:37 <mortswishytail> Lets say I'm a monk
15:38:47 <Hydrazine> Option B: Are a monk, you can kick people all damn day while brushing your teeth and holding a flashlight, but you have to use flurry to do it.
15:39:05 <Hydrazine> lol.
15:39:09 <Hydrazine> I don't do cold very well.
15:39:42 <mortswishytail> Heh. There are rules that flurry doesn't kick in till you get feral combat training anyway
15:39:43 <Hydrazine> Only monks get to attack unarmed without using their hands, and part of the tie in for this is that they cannot use TWF.
15:40:21 <mortswishytail> Ah this is interesting.
15:40:29 <mortswishytail> God and complicated as well
15:41:27 <Hydrazine> I think the purpose is to keep non-monks from being able to attack without hands.
15:41:42 <Hydrazine> Or rather, to be able to use hands for other stuff and still fighting effectively.
15:41:47 <mortswishytail> The problem is I'm part monk or will be
15:42:10 <mortswishytail> And a large part of my aoos must be done unarmed
15:42:37 <mortswishytail> So i think ill be using a spear. Threaten at 10 ft
15:42:37 <Hydrazine> Nothing is wrong with doing AoOs unarmed while you're holding stuff.
15:42:50 <mortswishytail> And a shield
15:43:04 <Hydrazine> If you try and use the spear and unarmed in the same attack action without flurry, you run into problems.
15:43:14 <mortswishytail> But when the monster gets close i end up kicking his bum
15:43:33 <mortswishytail> Or punching him using a cestus
15:43:43 <Hydrazine> Drop the damn cestus as soon as you get monk levels.
15:43:50 <mortswishytail> Sure
15:44:05 <mortswishytail> I'm not a monk yet though
15:44:09 <mortswishytail> Next level ^^
15:44:24 <Hydrazine> Okay. I'll say this one more time. And then we're done, right?
15:44:41 <Hydrazine> A monk taking AoOs regardless of what hes holding? No problem.
15:45:09 <Hydrazine> A monk using unarmed attacks as an offhand weapon? Not legal.
15:45:48 <mortswishytail> But for dr sake can i make unarmed attacks with a cold iron cestus?
15:45:57 <mortswishytail> On aoos?
15:48:51 <Hydrazine> Is the cestus holding the shield or the spear?
15:49:18 <mortswishytail> Spear or shield can be either
15:49:22 <mortswishytail> Or both also
15:49:47 <mortswishytail> Actually wasn't the cestus a glove? So you get them in pairs
15:49:56 <Hydrazine> I don't think it matters. And no, its singular.
15:50:54 <mortswishytail> Ok so its the I'm going to punch that fey in front of me
15:51:06 * Hydrazine thinks.
15:51:08 <mortswishytail> I need to use my cold iron cestus!
15:51:34 <Hydrazine> So, at level 1 you can wield both a whip and a cestus at once.
15:52:05 <Hydrazine> Aslong as you only make one regular attack per round, you are not using TWF rules, you suffer no penalty. Regardless of which weapon you attack with.
15:52:20 <mortswishytail> True.
15:52:34 <Hydrazine> And since you have a cestus, you threaten and thus can take AoOs.
15:52:49 <Hydrazine> This does not magically become invalid at higher levels.
15:52:57 <Hydrazine> This does not magically become invalid for taking monk levels.
15:53:33 <mortswishytail> So i can still take aoos with a cestus.
15:53:55 <mortswishytail> Dr issues or kicking the guy next to me would be cooler
15:54:32 <mortswishytail> But is it considered as an unarmed attack?
15:55:21 <Hydrazine> No.
15:55:26 <Hydrazine> Its considerd a cestus.
15:55:26 * tashphones cuddles mort because she's warm and fuzzy and tashes is cold
15:57:12 <mortswishytail> Shit
15:57:13 <Brunius> Females are wierd.
15:57:30 * mortswishytail cuddles tashes back
15:58:32 <mortswishytail> All my aoos need to be taken unarmed
15:58:36 <mortswishytail> Dr ftw
15:58:51 <mortswishytail> Brass knuckles here i come
15:58:56 <Hydrazine> Nope.
15:59:31 <mortswishytail> ?
15:59:54 <Hydrazine> brass knuckles are brass knuckles. Not unarmed.
16:01:32 <Brunius> I dislike the WotC site.
16:01:35 <Brunius> It's very clunky.
16:03:29 <mortswishytail> Will think of something

18:40:09 <Brunius> Steven: How's Paizocon?
18:42:01 <Steven> it was pretty awesome
18:42:08 <Steven> met a lot of venture captains
18:42:34 <Steven> lots of Vls
18:42:38 <Steven> VLs even
18:42:45 <Steven> met mike brock
18:42:49 <Steven> and a bunch of others
18:43:14 <Steven> talked to painlord and kyle baird
18:43:20 <Steven> both cool guys
18:43:50 <Avatar> I bet you're just saying that
18:44:01 <Avatar> like oh yeah i've talked to the famous painlord and the famous kyle baird
18:44:07 <Avatar> and the famous mike brock
18:44:11 <Avatar> they are all cool, just sayin
18:44:16 <Brunius> Pics or it didn't happen.
18:44:21 <Avatar> I am cool with them and they are cool with me
18:44:24 <Avatar> we are friends now
18:45:02 <Steven> played with kyle baird and the son of Mike brock at a 12+ table
18:45:07 <Steven> no we are not friends now
18:45:11 <Steven> i just played with them all
18:45:20 <Steven> kyle baird has a cleric with like 300hp
18:46:19 <Steven> also, i got plane shifted w/ prismatic spray
18:46:25 <Steven> totally awesome
18:46:51 <Steven> picked up a boon for ifrit
18:47:10 <Steven> for playing in the grand convocation i get to play as a fetchling once the next guide comes out
18:47:14 <Steven> according to mike brock
18:47:28 <Brunius> How common are convention boons over there, btw?
18:47:37 <Steven> got a free townhouse in absolom
18:47:50 <Steven> for every 2 games you played you basically got to roll the dice
18:48:09 <Steven> and depending on what you roll you got a different boob
18:48:11 <Steven> boon even
18:48:16 <Brunius> hawt
18:48:32 <Steven> everyone that came from pullman pooled their coins
18:48:42 <Steven> and we ended up with 22 rolls of the dice
18:49:58 <Steven> and then we just picked what we all wanted out of the boon pile
18:50:44 <Brunius> I've got terrible luck with boons
18:50:57 <Brunius> I've been to what, four cons?
18:51:00 <Brunius> And not a single boon
18:51:04 <Brunius> Of any type.
18:51:16 <Brunius> Although I did get a free book or two
18:51:22 <Steven> ive got a fetchling, ifrit, free absolom townhouse
18:51:35 <Steven> and all i gotta do is ask walter for a boon
18:51:40 <Steven> and i can get it
18:52:51 <Steven> everyones got an elemental race that went
18:53:05 <tashphones2> Hehehe Steven said boob

19:07:20 <Steven> lets see, at paizocon, i went to the GM101 courses, and improved my Gming skills
19:07:40 <Steven> their big message was basically just lie to players if you dont know the rules and make sure you are in charge of the tables
19:08:09 tashphones ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
19:08:49 <Steven> then i did the grand convocation, where i played with kyle baird and mike brock's son
19:09:06 <Steven> did some fun stuff and then got plane shifted to another plane via prismatic spray
19:09:12 <Avatar> lie to players about what
19:09:19 <Steven> rules man
19:09:27 <Avatar> but players can just point to the rules
19:09:37 <Steven> if you dont know something they are basically like, make something reasonable up and roll with it as long as you are consistant
19:09:44 <Steven> and then look up the rule later on
19:09:58 <Steven> unless the player proves you wrong theres no reason to disrupt the game
19:10:27 <Steven> and even if it turns out you are wrong, correct it from that point on, but dont go back and change things retroactively

19:11:02 <thatdude> Avatar here?

19:11:12 thatdude is now known as Snow
19:12:16 Snow is now known as Sn0uu
19:12:26 <Steven> and the panel included two VCs, two VLs, Kyle Baird, and a 3 star GM
19:12:37 <Steven> mike brock was in the room along with painlord
19:12:59 <Steven> and they didn't contradict the advice
19:13:37 <Sn0uu> what?

21:47:59 thatdude has quit (Quit: Chatmosphere for Blackberry)
21:48:08 <Brunius> How friendly.
21:58:33 <Mekkis> don't worry
21:58:38 <Mekkis> he's an american
21:58:41 <Mekkis> using a blackberry
21:58:45 <Mekkis> what a noob
21:58:56 <Brunius> Woah, Mekkis.
21:59:03 <Brunius> Speaking pretty forcefully there.
21:59:11 <Mekkis> Who is Sn0uu?
22:00:37 <Brunius> I dunno, they've been lurking here for a couple of days
22:02:02 <Avatar> he hasn't been lurking
22:02:04 <Avatar> he's a new player
22:02:16 <Avatar> you've been lurking
22:02:30 <Mekkis> he seems to be a goddamn texan
22:02:38 <Mekkis> expect him to do a Bossman
22:02:46 <Avatar> bit judgemental
22:03:07 <Brunius> You've been lurking.
22:04:08 <Mekkis> actually...
22:04:21 <Mekkis> I'm.... surprised and disturbed
22:04:27 <Mekkis> by the client he uses
22:04:55 <Mekkis> http://69.41.182.139/
22:05:02 <Mekkis> Brunius, consider NOT visiting that site
22:05:31 <Brunius> Why?
22:05:57 <Mekkis> there's nothing Really Bad on there, but if someone sees it in your browsing history, they might get the Wrong Idea
22:06:08 <Brunius> to private browsing!
22:06:32 <Brunius> You could merely say it's a dating site
22:08:10 <Mekkis> why are harddrives named after fish and fish products?
22:09:02 <Brunius> They've gotta name them after something
22:09:32 <Brunius> I wouldn't mind them being named after mythical creatures.
22:09:35 <Brunius> That'd be pretty cool
22:09:41 <Brunius> Seagate Medusa.
22:10:21 <Mekkis> I have a Quantum Fireball
22:10:33 <Mekkis> but now it's all caviars and barracudas
22:11:49 * Mekkis looks at harddrives on his desk
22:12:08 <Mekkis> 320GB Barracuda
22:12:24 <Brunius> Oh, someone on a magic podcast mentioned Model Ms the other day
22:12:27 <Mekkis> 1500GB Barracuda
22:12:33 <Brunius> I'm wondering if it's something about the MTG community

23:23:39 <Mekkis> Imagine a world where speaking or writing words can literally and directly make things happen, where getting one of those words wrong can wreak unbelievable havoc, but where with the right spell you can summon immensely powerful agencies to work your will. Imagine further that this world is administered: there is an extensive division of labour, among the magicians themselves and between the magicians and those who coordinate their activity. It's bureau
23:23:39 <Mekkis> cratic, and also (therefore) chaotic, and it's full of people at desks muttering curses and writing invocations, all beavering away at a small part of the big picture. The coordinators, because they don't understand what's going on, are easy prey for smooth-talking preachers of bizarre cults that demand arbitrary sacrifices and vanish with large amounts of money.
23:26:48 <tashphones> ?
23:29:23 <Mekkis> Welcome to the IT department.
23:39:17 <Avatar> that's really any department
23:40:29 <Mekkis> really? I haven't seen words cause more harm than when entered into a root prompt
23:41:37 <Avatar> I have
23:42:29 <tashphones> "yes, your butt does look big in that"
23:42:45 <Mekkis> example please?
