00:00:14 <Graky> so
00:00:15 <Graky> Greatsword+4 +10/+5 2d6 +3(str) x2 Melee M Slashing
00:00:19 <Avatar> your size mods come into that too, but you can safely ignore that since you're medium and it's 0
00:00:31 <Avatar> ditch +10/+5
00:00:34 <Graky> yeah
00:00:36 <Avatar> the +4 replaces it
00:00:42 <Avatar> the rest of that is right
00:00:55 <Graky> L Crossbow+3 1d8 x2 Ranged M Piercing
00:01:17 <Graky> L Crossbow+3 1d8 +2(dex)
00:01:19 <Graky> eather
00:01:23 <Graky> rather*
00:01:34 <Avatar> you don't get a dex bonus on your attack roll with a ranged weapon
00:01:36 <Avatar> er
00:01:37 <Avatar> damage roll
00:01:44 <Avatar> you only get it on your attack roll by aiming better
00:01:50 <Avatar> not by shooting harder, that doesn't make sense
00:01:59 <Graky> ok
00:02:07 <Graky> L Crossbow 1d8 +2(dex) x2 Ranged M Piercing
00:02:10 <Graky> should be correct
00:02:17 <Graky> i hope
00:02:19 <Graky> >.>
00:02:27 <Avatar> okay you know what dex is, right
00:02:34 <Avatar> dex is what's helping you aim better
00:02:36 <Graky> like how agile someone is
00:02:44 <Avatar> 1d8 is how much damage you do
00:02:52 <Graky> so
00:02:55 <Avatar> so when the bolt leaves your crossbow
00:02:55 <Graky> there is no dex bonus
00:02:56 <Graky> to dmg
00:03:03 <Graky> i see
00:03:09 <Avatar> no matter how well you aim, you're going to do the same amount of damage as if you aimed badly (but still hit)
00:03:13 <Avatar> yep
00:04:56 <Graky> so 50 bolts
00:04:59 <Graky> goes in inventory
00:05:21 <Avatar> yep, there's an ammo bit there
00:05:33 <Graky> oh
00:05:40 <Graky> i have to work out the weight of everything
00:05:41 <Graky> heh
00:05:59 <Avatar> you can keep track of how much stuff costs and weighs in that inventory section, even with weapons and armour which show in the top bits
00:06:12 <Avatar> delete that spells section entirely
00:06:21 <Avatar> unless you think you might take a level of wizard later
00:06:41 <Graky> i can add it back later if i do though i doubt i would
00:06:50 <Avatar> yeah
00:07:11 <Graky> so
00:07:16 <Graky> outfit gives no benefit?
00:07:22 <Avatar> it stops you being naked
00:07:23 <Graky> explorer's outfit
00:07:27 <Graky> ah
00:07:32 <Avatar> a cold weather outfit will help you in cold environments
00:07:59 ducknuckem ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
00:08:07 <Avatar> I think there is actually a limit to how expensive your outfit can be
00:08:12 <Avatar> less than 10gp or something
00:08:28 <Avatar> yeah 10gp or less
00:08:55 <Graky> so still need
00:09:01 <Graky> feats traits and to work out inventory
00:09:15 <Avatar> and then you're laughing
00:09:20 <Avatar> congratulations on your first character
00:09:37 <Avatar> don't forget you can rebuild it up until the beginning of your fourth scenario
00:09:47 <Avatar> take what you want over what people recommend you
00:10:00 <Avatar> bedtime now
00:10:11 <Graky> ok dude, thanks so much for all your help so far
00:10:16 <Avatar> np
00:10:23 <Graky> hope you aren't facepalming over my questions too much
00:10:24 <Graky> heh
00:10:33 <Avatar> nah man it's all good
00:10:47 <Graky> nite anyhow
00:30:57 <Graky> so how many feats do you pick on a level 1 char
00:35:01 <Mekkis> 1
00:35:04 <Mekkis> normally

01:08:28 <Graky> i think power attack
01:08:52 TetsujinOni ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
01:09:14 <Graky> also barb is 2 skills per level or 4? rlebook says 4
01:09:26 <Graky> 4+ int modifier
01:09:43 <Mekkis> if rulebook says 4, then it's 4
01:09:50 * Mekkis has been working from memory
01:09:55 <Graky> haha
01:10:08 <Mekkis> the last time I played a barbarian was in 3.5
01:13:08 <TetsujinOni> barbies are way more cool now
01:13:28 <TetsujinOni> though I occasionally miss the motivation of reckless rage ;)
01:13:36 <Graky> http://www.pfrpg.com.au/viewchar.php5?char=514
01:13:38 <Graky> thats where im at
01:14:04 <Graky> er wait
01:14:04 <Graky> http://www.pfrpg.com.au/viewchar.php5?char=514
01:14:05 <Graky> now
01:14:07 <Graky> reuploaded
01:24:40 <TetsujinOni> i'd probably delay power attack until 2 or 3 (depending if you fighter dip 2)
01:25:01 <TetsujinOni> and go weapon focus first unless you plan to use multiple weapon types
01:25:21 <TetsujinOni> (16 str = wants more to-hit, in my experience)
01:25:32 <TetsujinOni> also... 6 cha is gonna hurt on many faction missions.
01:29:58 <Graky> hmm
01:30:05 <Graky> its my first char >.>
01:30:21 <Graky> kinda daunting trying to throw all this stuff together
01:31:23 <TetsujinOni> Oh, definitely.
01:31:53 <TetsujinOni> Is the concept "durable hardassed dwarf who wants to stop the ancestral artifacts of Osirion from leaking out of the country"?
01:32:18 <Graky> yes
01:32:19 <Graky> haha
01:32:42 * TetsujinOni has no experience in this game whatsoever. Really. ;)
01:33:26 <TetsujinOni> Do you have Dwarves of Golarion? And are you intending to be a durable and mobile, or a walking rock to break enemies on?
01:34:17 <Graky> want to be able to walk into mobs, smash their faces and take punishment
01:34:38 <Graky> rather defense than mobility probably
01:34:57 <Graky> i hear melee gets worse for wear as mobs get higher level
01:35:16 <Mekkis> depends
01:35:57 <Graky> well i'm open to suggestion really all i have done is taken things i think looked good heh
01:36:29 <Graky> never played pathfinder or d&d or anything like them previously
01:37:36 <Mekkis> (FYI, when I suggested that statline, I was expecting a human, half-elf or half-orc - it's not a big problem really, just unexpected)
01:37:59 <Graky> ah ok
01:38:07 <Graky> id prefer to play dwarf
01:38:36 <Mekkis> fair enough
01:38:57 <Graky> really i just want a character that is fun to play and useful and kinda easy to play
01:41:00 <Graky> i can always reroll something more challenging when i know the game properly
01:55:00 <TetsujinOni> right. so, walking rock. *peers at the sheet a bit more*
02:07:38 <TetsujinOni> So, I wonder if a waraxe or earthbreaker might not be an equally good choice for this character to play up the dwarfness.... or using the greatsword to be "contrary even to the stubborn" could be a fun RP hook.
02:08:31 <Hydrazine> Its actually 2d6+4 damage on the greatsword.
02:08:35 <TetsujinOni> the waraxe (usable one-handed as a martial weapon for you because you're a dwarf) would give you the option of using a shield (likely a buckler?) for when you want to hit more.
02:09:16 <TetsujinOni> Yep, I see that. IIRC it'd be 2d6+4 for the earthbreaker and 1d10+4 or 1d10+3 and have a buckler active
02:09:30 <TetsujinOni> tossing ideas out there, no strong pushing either direction.
02:10:39 <Hydrazine> The greatsword does crit 19-20 if you plan on keeping it.
02:11:04 <TetsujinOni> earthbreaker is 2-handed, x3 crit, bludgeoning, 2d6. waraxe is x3 crit, 1d10, slashing, has a use-one-handed mode if you want to use a shield.
02:11:44 <TetsujinOni> it's the tradeoff between more chances to crit, crit harder with a dwarf-flavored weapon, or do almost as much damage with a one-handed mode.
02:12:05 <Hydrazine> I think I totally understand the idea that some barbarians simply have no intention of using a shield.
02:12:29 <TetsujinOni> Sure, it depends on concept. Some barbarians chew on their shield when they rage ;)
02:14:09 <TetsujinOni> Trying to give graky options, including questions regarding which way he would like to play the dwarf's personality.

17:26:38 <Avatar> sounds like you have something against them specifically
17:26:42 <Avatar> like you are shieldist
17:26:57 <Graky> haha
17:27:09 <Graky> http://www.pfrpg.com.au/viewchar.php5?char=514
17:27:16 <Graky> thats how far i ended up with my char
17:28:26 <Avatar> see your crossbow
17:28:28 <Avatar> under range
17:28:31 <Avatar> you've put "ranged"
17:28:35 <Avatar> but it actually has a specific range
17:28:39 <Avatar> that's what that column is for
17:28:41 <Graky> ah
17:28:55 <Brunius> http://www.awesomedice.com/blog/353/d20-dice-randomness-test-chessex-vs-gamescience/
17:29:00 <Avatar> it's not there because maybe you are stoopid and will forget your crossbow can shoot at a distance
17:29:20 <Avatar> apart from that it looks finished
17:30:02 <Avatar> you can add in your encumberance levels from chapter 7 of the core rulebook, under vital statistics > carrying capacity
17:31:02 <Graky> aight
17:31:29 <Avatar> Brunius: probably the first good link you have ever posted !
17:31:31 <Avatar> congratulations
17:31:45 <Brunius> Screw you man
17:31:52 <Brunius> I died man
17:31:54 <Brunius> I'm in Balota
17:31:56 <Brunius> Where are you
17:32:14 <Avatar> I haven o idea
17:32:19 <Avatar> inside a silo or something
17:32:24 <Avatar> actually maybe on top of a silo
17:32:30 <Avatar> hiding like the coward I am
17:33:03 <Brunius> Sounds like Solnichny
17:33:13 <Brunius> Can you log in and find out where you are?
17:33:44 <Avatar> how
17:33:48 <Avatar> I mean I know how to log in
17:33:51 <Avatar> but how do I find out where I am
17:33:54 <Brunius> When you log in on the bottom right it says
17:34:04 <Brunius> The second line is what you're looking for
17:36:31 <Avatar> new version out
17:37:05 <Brunius> Which new version
17:37:09 <Brunius> is 1.7.3 out?
17:37:26 <Avatar> no idea, it said I had a bad version
17:37:35 <Avatar> new version for me, not for everyone
17:40:06 <Brunius> Got super lucky yesterday and found the best backpack in the game about 30min after I spawned
17:40:37 <Avatar> v.nice
17:49:36 <Avatar> I'm in chernarus
17:49:56 <Avatar> inside a building with a ladder in it

18:18:57 <Avatar> oh
18:19:00 <Avatar> dunno
18:19:06 <Avatar> I'll check again in a bit
18:19:14 <Avatar> the second line was like, day 1
18:22:20 <Brunius> That would be third line

18:42:33 <Graky> so when is the next game comming up that would be suitable for me to be able to play in
18:46:05 <Avatar> probably next weekend
18:46:09 <Avatar> I think this weekend is flat chat full
18:46:38 <Graky> sounds good
18:46:53 <Graky> its ok if i sit in on the games this weekend though?
18:46:57 <Graky> just to watch
18:51:44 <Avatar> you shouldn't really
18:51:50 <Avatar> because the scenario can run again later
18:51:55 <Avatar> and you will ruin it for yourself with spoilers
18:53:29 <Graky> oh ok, i was just more interested in learning the basics of the game heh
18:53:43 <Graky> probably a good point though
18:55:38 <Graky> i ordered a hardcopy of the core rulebook

21:43:17 <Brunius> Keep the coast on your left and run down to the next city
21:43:23 <Brunius> That's where I am atm
21:43:43 * Mekkis kills Brunius
21:43:50 <Brunius> :(
21:44:09 <Mekkis> that's what happens in PVP
21:44:11 <Mekkis> right?
21:44:15 <Brunius> Yeah
21:44:23 <Brunius> There's a reason I'm not going to Elektro to pick up Avatar
21:44:29 * Mekkis kills Brunius as he respawns and steals his stuff
21:44:40 <Brunius> :(
21:44:44 * Mekkis teabags Brunius' corpse
21:44:48 <Brunius> My painkillers and bandage?
21:48:11 <Mekkis> sure
21:48:13 <Avatar> it's not the humans that bother me
21:48:21 <Avatar> there's always a zombie or 5 around whenever I log on
21:48:28 <Brunius> You can outrun them
21:48:32 <Avatar> how
21:48:32 <Mekkis> then I'm going to bitch and bitch at how I PKed Brunius, twice, without getting any phat lootz
21:48:48 <Brunius> Don't stop running
21:48:50 Forevernade ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
21:48:52 <Mekkis> and how noobs who run around carrying nothing are bad for the game
21:49:00 <Avatar> I don't stop running
21:49:02 <Avatar> they still keep up
21:49:06 <Brunius> Sounds like 90% of the dayz community
21:49:20 <Brunius> Yeah, duck around trees
21:49:43 <Avatar> alright which way am I meant to go
21:49:48 <Avatar> I will jump on now and get outta there
21:50:24 <Avatar> coast on the left
21:51:03 <Brunius> If you want to see if you can get a weapon before then, about halfway between the cities there's three barns
21:51:07 <Brunius> There should be a weapon in there
21:51:19 <Brunius> Try ANZ1-5, they've restarted recently
21:51:40 <Brunius> Otherwise we can just go to the fire station once we meet up
21:51:45 <Brunius> Night guys
21:51:55 <Avatar> should I drop this main assembly rotor
21:51:59 <Brunius> Probably
21:52:09 <Brunius> I saw a working heli yesterday
21:52:11 <Brunius> Then I got sniped :(
21:52:18 <Avatar> isn't it hard to get heli parts
21:52:22 <Avatar> that suggests I should keep it?
21:52:28 <Brunius> There's one heli per server
21:52:39 <Brunius> One heli in 225^2 km of map
21:52:57 <Avatar> so, ours?

22:02:34 <Avatar> it wasn't even that fucking far down
22:02:42 <Avatar> I was dropping down intentionally
22:02:49 * Mekkis hides the claymore
22:03:01 <Avatar> deleting this fucking game
22:03:23 <Mekkis> let's do a BBTPK!
22:03:46 <Avatar> a what
22:04:17 <Mekkis> beginner box TPK
22:05:07 <Mekkis> one thing I like about the beginner boxes TPKs is that all the encounters are solvable without combat
22:05:20 <Mekkis> I'd think Avatar would like that
22:06:26 <Mekkis> is it bad that Paizo's site says "you have 83 downloadable items"?
22:07:44 <Avatar> I don't like beginner TPKs
22:10:29 <Brunius> Ha
22:10:31 <Mekkis> you WERE approaching them the wrong way
22:10:46 <Brunius> Avatar, I've fallen 2" before and got broken legs
22:11:34 <Avatar> yeah I didn't even get broken legs
22:11:36 <Avatar> just instadeath
22:11:42 <Avatar> it was about 2' for me
22:12:14 * Mekkis hides the claymore
