27:33 Gamera has quit (Quit: )
02:14 <Avatar> shouldn't you say "I bought an elemental earth belt"
02:18 <Avatar> what are you, a computer program

03:47 <Steven> Primary Function: Trolling Australians
04:03 <Avatar> you're not working
04:26 <Steven> totes am.

13:26 <Steven> so turn into Large sized earth elemental
13:44 <Steven> Rage.... AC 33
14:26 <Steven> raging earth elemental seems pretty awesome.
30:25 <Steven> actions would probably be free action drop scythe, standard action activate belt, move action pick up scythe, free action rage
30:43 <Steven> then i'd be an earth elemental with a scythe!

43:13 Thearun ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
43:50 <Thearun> Hello?
44:51 <Yiroep> Hi.
45:11 <Thearun> Is this a Pathfinder RPG group?
45:49 <Yiroep> It is. There are some home games here and also Pathfinder Society.
46:31 <Thearun> I"ve never played PFS, but....have played a lot of D&D, I heard that it is not too different
46:42 <Yiroep> Have you played edition 3.5 of D&D?
47:21 <Thearun> Yes
47:45 <Yiroep> Pathfinder is most similar to that system. In fact, much of the core rule language is borrowed from it.
48:03 <Thearun> I moved away from my old group, and cannot seem to find one where I am now.  Was just looking for some people to play with
48:45 Thearun has quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
25:06 Steven ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
44:23 <Avatar> interesting rogue build caught my eye today
44:42 <Avatar> catch off-guard feat and reach disarm
44:51 <Avatar> I think it was reach
45:04 <Avatar> anyway, you disarm them and if they pick up their weapon, you sneak attack them 
59:03 <Brunius> WELL
59:05 <Brunius> tribes isn't working
59:06 <Brunius> soooo
59:08 <Brunius> taaaaaaaanks
05:16 <Steven> yeah. i was thinkin of buying some magnetic gloves.
05:29 <Steven> for ranged disarm.
06:07 <Steven> sorry to hear that you cannot play tribes brunius.

18:18 <CryptoToad> hey
19:05 <Steven> yo
19:17 <CryptoToad> I'm looking for a PF game, am I in teh right place?
19:20 <CryptoToad> the*
20:26 <Steven> yeah we play here.  There are no games going on right this second.
20:32 <CryptoToad> ahh, i see
20:40 <Steven> but people do run games here.
20:46 <CryptoToad> what time zone are the times in the topic?
21:02 <Steven> they in in australian time.
21:09 <Steven> usually games start around 5pm pacific.
21:11 <CryptoToad> ahh
21:16 <CryptoToad> oh that's what i needed
21:17 <CryptoToad> lol
21:32 <CryptoToad> any non-core classes allowed?
25:41 <Yiroep> Core races + aasimar, tieflings, and tengu.
26:10 <Steven> i believe he is not talking solely PFS Yiroep
26:14 <Yiroep> If you're playing Pathfinder Society that is, which is mainly what we do.
26:19 <Yiroep> Yeah was clarifying. :p
26:25 <CryptoToad> ahh okay
26:27 <CryptoToad> thanks
26:50 <Yiroep> There is a mix of Pathfinder Society and home games played here.
26:54 <CryptoToad> i've only played one campaign before, as finding a game is hard for me
27:36 <CryptoToad> moreso, finding a GM is hard for me
27:39 <Yiroep> For a home campaign, what's allowed is just gonna be whatever the GM says is allowed. :p
29:32 <CryptoToad> i'll start building a tiefling character :D
29:35 <Yiroep> I would encourage you to try out Pathfinder Society if you have a chance to do so. You may find you like it. In a case where it's hard to commit to a weekly game, it's ideal (which is why I like it so much). Instead of having a GM and group that you play with every week, you have your character that levels in the confines of the campaign, and you can take that character to any Pathfinder Society game available.
29:49 <Yiroep> They are offered here frequently.
30:05 <CryptoToad> very nice
32:36 <Steven> if you want to read up a bit on PFS there is a guide you can download for free.
32:38 <Steven> ?guide
32:38 <diebot> Steven, Guide to the Pathfinder Society Organised Play, available at http://paizo.com/products/btpy84k4
32:45 <CryptoToad> awesome thanks
33:16 <Yiroep> I also have a quick-start guide I often share with new players that's more concise.
33:19 <Yiroep> https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wzo8ZHVWUJvcCaly_xLlluwQTOxy1Lbv1znPK6q_GLg/edit
33:53 <Yiroep> But I would definitely encourage you to read the official guide if you're interested.
34:02 <CryptoToad> will do
34:06 <CryptoToad> is the alchemist class allowed?
34:20 <CryptoToad> nvm
34:23 <CryptoToad> ill read up on it
34:28 <CryptoToad> instead of asking tons of questions
34:34 <CryptoToad> then i'll fill in the blanks
35:09 <Steven> Yes alchemist class is allowed.
35:21 * CryptoToad is a huge FMA nerd
35:40 <Steven> alchemist in pfs is not like alchemist in FMA
35:45 <CryptoToad> i know
35:45 <CryptoToad> lol
35:52 <CryptoToad> well, it's kinda like kimbley
35:58 <CryptoToad> just not the rest of them
36:07 <Steven> its mostly mix up extracts, drink extracts throw bombs
36:12 <CryptoToad> yep
36:30 <CryptoToad> i'd like to do a alchemist/spellcaster hybrid
36:44 <CryptoToad> but idk about pfs rules
36:47 <CryptoToad> so i'm reading up now
37:19 <Steven> very difficult to multiclass an alchemist into another spellcasting class.
37:28 <CryptoToad> ahh
37:39 <CryptoToad> i may just go with a spellcaster then
37:40 <CryptoToad> idk
38:01 <Yiroep> A spellcaster is perfectly solid choice. :)
38:03 <Avatar> roll up everything !!
38:05 <CryptoToad> i tend to play a very manipulative spellcaster
38:35 <Avatar> you'll eventually roll up more than one character in PFS anyway
38:40 <CryptoToad> yeah
38:46 <Avatar> decide on one as your main character and keep them about 3 levels apart as you play
38:52 <CryptoToad> okay thanks :)
38:57 <Avatar> so that you don't take forever getting to the higher levels
39:02 <CryptoToad> yeah
39:13 <Steven> I have 20 characters.
39:19 <CryptoToad> wow
39:28 <Steven> spread from level 1-17
39:43 <Yiroep> One day, I'll have a 17. :p
39:47 <Yiroep> He's only 16.
40:03 <Steven> you'll get there man... i believe in you.
40:51 <Yiroep> I was pleased last time I played.
40:54 <Steven> !roll 1d20+8 Bluff
40:55 <dicebot> Steven, Bluff: [1d20=10] 18
41:03 <CryptoToad> lol
41:05 <Yiroep> Fully healed the extremely high con barbarian to full in one turn with my life oracle. :)
41:08 <Yiroep> PFT.
41:16 <Yiroep> We'll play Moonscar soon!
41:19 CWheezy has quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
42:09 <Steven> thats how its done yiroep.
42:16 <Steven> I really liked the moonscar.
42:20 <Steven> it was fun.
44:31 <Steven> some of the fights were terrible due to party comp
45:08 <Yiroep> Our party is extremely balanced.
45:34 <Yiroep> Well, it's 5 of us that play together at that level and occasionally bring in a random person to join us.
45:43 <Yiroep> The barbarian was our addition for Tomb.
46:01 <Steven> like enemies surprise round our players got to act due to class features
46:15 <Steven> and they beat the enemies in initative
46:28 <Yiroep> Yeah, our witch/sohei does that...
46:29 <Steven> and combat was over before the enemies got to do anything.
46:43 <Yiroep> Surprise! Oh wait, we can't do anything.
47:29 <Steven> Suprise! I'm a *ribbit*  
47:50 <Yiroep> Yeah, usually for us it's asleep or something.
47:54 <Steven> happened more then a few times.
48:21 <Steven> pretty much ever since Cameron got Persistant Baleful Polymorph
48:22 <Yiroep> It's fine, though.
48:26 <Yiroep> We still have fun.
51:18 <Steven> oh hey toad, if you need any suggestions for feats or anything ask we are full of terrible advice.
52:57 <CryptoToad> awesome thanks
52:57 <CryptoToad> :)
53:19 <Yiroep> Prone Shooter for every character.
53:32 <Steven> every single one
54:15 <CryptoToad> got a recommendation for a sheet to use? preferably with nice auto calculations
54:24 <CryptoToad> atm im using
54:26 <CryptoToad> neceros
54:52 <Steven> http://dnd.ballig.net/index.php5
54:58 <Steven> has a decent sheet on it.
55:44 <CryptoToad> php5
55:54 <CryptoToad> that's an odd way to do that
55:55 <CryptoToad> lol
58:12 <CryptoToad> opinions on hero lab?
59:39 <Steven> know how to build a character completely before using it.
00:29 <Yiroep> It's a well made program. I actually have it and occasionally use it. You need to know what you're doing, though, because it does some things wrong. It thought "-4 to dex-based skill checks" meatn -4 to iniative for one my characters even thought it's not a skill check.
00:49 <Yiroep> I use it more for my martially inclined characters to keep track of buffs. I don't use it as much for my casters.
00:58 <CryptoToad> ahh gotcha
01:39 <CryptoToad> i'll spend a few mins cracking it then :)
02:29 <Yiroep> I also use it as a tool to help create my characters quickly if I need to since it's faster than writing everything down. (At least for me)
03:02 <Yiroep> And helping other people make characters, which I often do.
03:33 <Steven> I have it and i've never used it.
05:03 <Yiroep> It's a tool, and a useful one, but it's not perfect. That's my opinion of it.
06:09 <Steven> it just annoys me.
06:21 CryptoToad has quit (EOF from client)
06:42 <Yiroep> How so? People using it and not really knowing the rules?
07:24 <Steven> that and other things.

22:23 <Avatar> if you know everything you're looking at and you don't mind the poor layout and you can pick up on the mistakes it makes, then it's fine
22:36 <Avatar> if you're a newbie who wants a quick fix, it's very bad
24:14 <Yiroep> I actually like the layout when I'm making the character, but it's pretty terrible when I'm playing. That's why I use my iPad's version of it when I'm playing. The layout on that is much nicer.
24:33 <Yiroep> Just wish it were a full version on there...
24:57 <Avatar> it spits out a stat block
