1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31
00:00:49 <CWheezy> forcecage and maze
00:00:59 <Mekkis> no problem
00:01:12 <Mekkis> following turn, the tingle is there again
00:01:15 <CWheezy> ok Iask jake wtf is up
00:01:16 <Mekkis> will save if you want.
00:01:21 <Mekkis> Jake doesn't know
00:01:22 <CWheezy> and he is like bloop a loop
00:01:26 <CWheezy> !roll 1d20 +31
00:01:35 <CWheezy> !roll 1d20+31
00:01:46 <Mekkis> you can use !throw
00:01:47 <CWheezy> uh
00:01:54 <dicebot> CWheezy, +31: [1d20=19] 50
00:01:54 <dicebot> CWheezy, 1d20+31: [1d20=3] 34
00:02:01 <Mekkis> sure.
00:02:07 <Mekkis> same tingle, no effect
00:02:08 <CWheezy> I'll take the first one
00:02:10 <Mekkis> your turn
00:02:21 <CWheezy> how do I not get a knowledge check on this
00:02:29 <CWheezy> things that attack you from other planes
00:02:36 <Mekkis> you did
00:02:45 <Mekkis> it's a spell. Seems to be Sending
00:03:00 <CWheezy> on the creature that does it
00:03:15 <Mekkis> you don't know.
00:03:15 <CWheezy> it isn't sending
00:03:19 <CWheezy> because sending is no save
00:03:45 <Mekkis> well. Or it's the GM asking for saves to make you paranoid, and to stop metagaming. That's also a possibility
00:03:50 <Mekkis> or it's another spell entirely
00:04:01 <CWheezy> 06:03 <Mekkis>: well. Or it's the GM asking for saves to make you paranoid, and to stop metagaming. That's also a possibility
00:04:04 <CWheezy> it obviously is not that one
00:04:08 <CWheezy> that one would be terrible
00:04:25 <Mekkis> I've done that before. It's effective
00:04:27 <Steven> obviously you're failing your will save vs mekkis' annoyance effect.
00:04:30 <CWheezy> wow a wizard who knows what a spell does
00:04:41 <CWheezy> not any wizard but one who has it prepared
00:04:42 <CWheezy> herp
00:05:04 <Mekkis> sure
00:05:20 <Mekkis> your knowledge check tells you that Sending is a spell that many casters can cast
00:05:27 <Mekkis> are you doing anything this turn?
00:05:47 <CWheezy> I will wait for a legitimate response to identify a monster that would do that
00:05:51 <CWheezy> since it obviously is not sending
00:06:00 <CWheezy> I guess if you are just trolling me to be a jerk plz say now
00:06:05 <CWheezy> so i can go to sleep
00:06:11 <CWheezy> I was hoping this was serious :(
00:06:12 <Mekkis> I'm not
00:06:14 <Darkkapow> no he is deadly serious
00:06:16 <Mekkis> this is serious
00:06:27 <Mekkis> Darkkapow and Steven know what's going on
00:06:29 <Darkkapow> knowledges and spellcraft rarely work when you can't see the target.
00:06:33 <Darkkapow> And i do say rarely
00:06:34 <Mekkis> make a will save
00:06:34 <CWheezy> now instead of commune and asking questions you are fucking with me on knowledge checks
00:06:38 <Darkkapow> as there are exceptions
00:06:49 <CWheezy> it is both still my turn AND you have no answered my question yet
00:06:55 <Darkkapow> there are a number of spells that cause you to will save no matter what plain you are on
00:06:57 <Mekkis> I have
00:07:06 <Mekkis> exactly
00:07:07 <Darkkapow> without seeing and hearing the person or thing doing whatever they are doing
00:07:14 <CWheezy> ok list them all for me
00:07:14 <Darkkapow> you can't tell what it is that's happening
00:07:18 <CWheezy> so I can think about which one it could be
00:07:24 <Darkkapow> so you can metagame?
00:07:28 <CWheezy> ?????
00:07:41 <CWheezy> are you seriously asking a wizard with 38 int if he doesn;t know what a spell might be
00:07:48 <Mekkis> CWheezy, would you do this in a real game? Get the GM to give you an exhaustive list of spells meeting certain conditions?
00:07:49 <CWheezy> so I can metagame hurrrr
00:08:03 <CWheezy> maybe
00:08:05 <CWheezy> am I level 20
00:08:09 <Darkkapow> ^ the point i was getting at
00:08:12 <Mekkis> now THAT'S 'bad faith'
00:08:13 <CWheezy> I know my character would think about it
00:08:20 <Darkkapow> and clearly you haven't played in a game at level 20
00:08:22 <CWheezy> so my character would know this already
00:08:33 <Mekkis> you character thinks about it, and decides that there are ALOT of spells like that
00:08:44 <CWheezy> really, I actually think there are not that many
00:08:53 <CWheezy> I know of 2 off the top of my head
00:09:02 <CWheezy> so do I get to do my own research time or what
00:09:11 <CWheezy> to know what my character would know
00:09:12 <Darkkapow> I know of maybe 9 off the top of my head and there are some monster abilities too
00:09:20 <CWheezy> oh good monster abilities
00:09:21 <CWheezy> great
00:09:44 <CWheezy> ok so I guess I will be doing that for a while
00:10:13 <Mekkis> I thought this was going to be a serious game
00:10:18 <CWheezy> it is
00:10:27 <CWheezy> how is that not serious
00:10:38 <Mekkis> What you've been doing is wasting time, bitching about every single rule, and arguing with the GM non-stop.
00:10:46 <Darkkapow> so in a real life game you are going to delay 3-4 other players while you go read up about a whole heap of spells?
00:11:05 <CWheezy> hmmmm, is this a set up to attack me personally?
00:11:13 <CWheezy> it is starting to feel that way
00:11:28 <Darkkapow> not at all
00:11:36 <Darkkapow> mekkis is legitimitely running something for you to beat
00:11:39 <CWheezy> well Darkkapow that is kind of all you have been doing
00:11:42 <Darkkapow> you are slowing the situation down
00:11:48 <CWheezy> so is mekkis
00:11:49 <Darkkapow> I'm going to do it all I want
00:11:55 <Darkkapow> I straight up don't like you
00:11:57 <Mekkis> how am I slowing it down?
00:12:01 <Darkkapow> but as for mekkis's intentions
00:12:04 <CWheezy> when you adjucate things poorly
00:12:07 <Darkkapow> he is running it properly
00:12:08 <Mekkis> my turns have taken less than two minutes
00:12:15 <CWheezy> and you are adjucating poorly
00:12:18 <Mekkis> in the last 82 minutes.
00:12:22 <Darkkapow> i was saying him mekkis
00:12:57 <Steven> I have seen what mekkis is doing. Seems legitimate.
00:12:59 <CWheezy> right now you are telling me
00:13:07 <CWheezy> that I am not allowed to know what my character would know
00:13:13 <CWheezy> because it would take too long
00:13:17 <Darkkapow> Action: Identifying a spell as it is being cast requires
00:13:17 <Darkkapow> no action, but you must be able to clearly see the spell as
00:13:17 <Darkkapow> it is being cast, and this incurs the same penalties as a
00:13:17 <Darkkapow> Perception skill check due to distance, poor conditions,
00:13:17 <Darkkapow> and other factors.
00:13:22 <Mekkis> I am telling you what your character knows
00:13:33 <CWheezy> that is weasel words
00:13:44 <CWheezy> saying "you know there is a lot" and claiming that is exact
00:13:45 <Darkkapow> you character doesn't know anything about what is happening as he can't see or hear what is going on at the other end
00:13:48 <Mekkis> or should I tell you to stop metagaming about the fact that you're making will saves?
00:14:07 <CWheezy> ugh
00:14:53 <CWheezy> is yoru claim resisting a mental influence is like "oph nothign happened"
00:15:08 <CWheezy> yay metagaming to know something attacked my mind
00:15:13 <CWheezy> ..........
00:15:16 <Mekkis> you don't know that it's a mental influence, or that it attacked your mind
00:15:19 <Avatar> survived the day
00:15:25 <Avatar> by the skin of our teeth
00:15:34 <Mekkis> Scrying, for instance, doesn't have a 'mental influence'
00:15:40 <CWheezy> will saves are mental influences, come on
00:15:55 <Mekkis> yet it has a will save
00:15:58 <Darkkapow> channel negative energy isn't a mental influence
00:16:07 <Darkkapow> it's still a will save

00:16:27 <Mekkis> awaken isn't a negative influence
00:16:30 <Mekkis> and has a will save
00:16:31 <CWheezy> ok I'ma be looking up stuff now
00:16:43 <CWheezy> if you want to stop because i /have/ to do this that's fine
00:16:46 <CWheezy> you designed the encounter
00:16:58 Alynn has quit (Quit: For Sale: Parachute. Only used once, never opened, small stain.)
00:17:05 <Darkkapow> and you 1 single player have to hold everything up cause you don't know your character.
00:17:11 <Mekkis> I'm willing to adjourn for 17 hours, and continue after that.
00:17:22 <Mekkis> while you do your 'research'
00:17:23 <Darkkapow> please do
00:17:26 <CWheezy> Darkkapow: is my character all monsters that can cast spells from plane to plane
00:17:40 <CWheezy> do you know all spells
00:17:40 <Darkkapow> well you are claiming that's his knowledge
00:17:43 <Darkkapow> so isn't it?
00:17:50 <Darkkapow> no I don't nor do i claim to
00:17:50 <CWheezy> Darkkapow: plz read
00:17:55 <Darkkapow> I play martial classes for a reason
00:18:00 <Darkkapow> i dislike spell casters
00:18:02 <CWheezy> yeah because they are simple
00:18:05 <CWheezy> just roll right
00:18:09 <CWheezy> to hard to cast spells
00:18:21 <Darkkapow> seems to be that way for you at the moment
00:18:29 <Darkkapow> you didn't even know that scrying was an hour cast time
00:18:31 <CWheezy> well it isn't like hard
00:18:37 <CWheezy> yeah it is true I don't know all spells
00:18:43 <CWheezy> you got me
00:18:52 <CWheezy> my character does though
00:18:55 <Darkkapow> and you failed yet again as you didn't correct me
00:18:57 <CWheezy> so ooc I get to know this
00:18:59 <Darkkapow> it's a 10 minute cast time
00:19:01 <Mekkis> CWheezy, I have never seen this sort of demand made by a player in the past, the "show me everything"
00:19:01 <Darkkapow> point proven
00:19:17 <Steven> ive seen it!
00:19:18 <CWheezy> ok, did you have a character who did know everything about the subject
00:19:31 <Steven> but i GM a lot.
00:19:34 <CWheezy> Darkkapow: lol is that serious
00:19:43 <Mekkis> close enough to everything
00:19:48 <CWheezy> "you don't know all spells"
00:19:50 <Mekkis> +20 or so on knowledge skills
00:19:54 <CWheezy> yeah you are right I don't know all spells
00:20:00 Avatar has changed the topic to: PFS: TBA || SS: Sat 4th ??am || WotW: Sat 11th 11am || All topic times are AEDT (UTC+11:00); set your timezone on the site to see your local times in the Schedule! | Pathfinder Online http://www.pfrpg.com.au
00:20:04 <CWheezy> 'Ha by not correcting me youd on't know all spells"
00:20:12 <CWheezy> ya got me
00:20:14 <Mekkis> but I TRUST the GM when they say "You don't know"
00:20:24 <Mekkis> I don't bitch about it for hours.
00:20:36 <CWheezy> well luckily I know that gms are just as fallible as anyone else
00:20:48 <Mekkis> I might remind the GM the way knowledge checks work, but I go with the ruling
00:20:55 <Darkkapow> CWheezy if you can't tell I am being a dick, take it this way, you have elicited this response from someone you don't even know by the way you have acted.
00:21:05 <Darkkapow> How long do you expect to last acting like that on peoples tables.
00:21:17 <Darkkapow> rules game aside
00:21:18 <CWheezy> right Darkkapow ya got me
00:21:23 <Steven> okay guys
00:21:25 <Darkkapow> you are acting like a fuck wit
00:21:27 <Mekkis> In our case, we have two VLs, from opposite end of the globe, who know what's going on, and have told you.
00:21:30 <Darkkapow> and people won't want to play with you
00:21:38 <CWheezy> mekkis are you using appeal to authority on me
00:21:43 <Darkkapow> it's the simple rule don't be a dick
00:21:46 <Darkkapow> your being a dick
00:21:50 <CWheezy> *you're
00:21:57 <Steven> if you want to personally attack each other, please take it to private.
00:21:58 <Darkkapow> as am i now but i am
00:22:07 <CWheezy> I actually haven't personally attacked anyone
00:22:09 <Mekkis> CWheezy, no, I'm using appeal to a neutral knowledgeable party
00:22:11 <CWheezy> it is only dark
00:22:20 <CWheezy> no that is appeal to authority
00:22:30 <Steven> I'm saying this preemptively before battle lines are drawn up.
00:22:33 <CWheezy> the "2 vls blah blah blah" is an appeal
00:22:45 <CWheezy> oh I don't personally attack people, it is childish and gets nothing done
00:23:03 <Darkkapow> I don't personally attack people I tell it like it is.
00:23:12 <Darkkapow> I am being a dick to you because you are being a dick in general
00:23:12 <CWheezy> right
00:23:18 <CWheezy> ok
00:23:24 <Steven> Just make sure its kept civil, or its kept private please.
00:23:30 <Mekkis> but let's adjourn for 17 hours and continue tomorrow. I have work.
00:23:37 <CWheezy> well I would claim he is being not civil
00:23:40 <CWheezy> I will be busy then btw
00:23:40 <Mekkis> and you have a shitton of research
00:23:42 <Mekkis> if you want.
00:23:45 <CWheezy> yes lol
00:23:52 <Mekkis> Sure. 20 hours better?
00:23:55 <CWheezy> well you set up a situation in which I would /have/ to
00:24:00 <Mekkis> no I didn't
00:24:01 <Steven> cool cool, see you all later when you can continue.
00:24:03 <CWheezy> did you not think that would happen
00:24:05 <CWheezy> ?
00:24:06 <Mekkis> no
00:24:18 <Steven> So... avatar, how did you barely survive?
00:24:20 <Mekkis> I didn't think you would want me to send you a list of spells
00:24:24 <Steven> gives me the details!
00:24:34 <CWheezy> well you are doing a thing, and I know all spells so
00:24:43 <CWheezy> I even rolled a great knowledge check
00:25:15 <Darkkapow> have you ignored the two times already I've pasted from the core rule book?
00:25:18 <Darkkapow> You don't know.
00:26:00 <CWheezy> Darkkapow: I am ignoring that because it isn't relevant, thanks
00:26:05 <Acentes> ?
00:26:25 <Darkkapow> it's RAW dude you can't ignore it it's core rule book how skills work
00:26:38 <CWheezy> Identify a spell that just targeted you Arcana 25 + spell level
00:26:53 <CWheezy> it's RAW dude you can't ignore it it's core rule book how skills work
00:26:59 <CWheezy> http://www.d20pfsrd.com/skills/knowledge
00:27:01 <Darkkapow> and?
00:27:12 <Darkkapow> it may not have targeted you
00:27:31 <Darkkapow> you are meta gaming that it did.
00:27:31 <CWheezy> yeah I guess it just affected me and no one else around me
00:27:54 <Darkkapow> *shrugs* I don't know that, do you know that?
00:28:06 <CWheezy> mekkis didn't say anything
00:28:13 <CWheezy> I have to assume nothing is happening
00:28:22 <CWheezy> so yes I do!
00:28:29 <Acentes> If I may interject?
00:28:40 <Mekkis> sure
00:29:09 <Acentes> Just because something is in the rulebook doesn't mean it is true in all games as DM/GM's are allowed to Fudge things in the spur of the moment as needed
00:29:25 <Mekkis> and no fudging has occurred
00:29:34 <CWheezy> "allowed"
00:30:18 <Acentes> Then again I'm the GM who sees his rulebook as guidelines
00:30:27 <CWheezy> plz don't assume how I act in a game Darkkapow, this is a challenge for a wizard that I take seriously not some home game where I play a cavalier
00:30:38 <CWheezy> thanks bye
00:30:40 CWheezy has quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
00:31:13 <Acentes> did I hurt that guys feelings?
00:31:29 <Darkkapow> 00:29 <Darkkapow> Okay dude all anamosity aside you need to look at your behaviour during a game. I apologise for getting verbal at you but seriously man sit down put the character aside and think about someone coming to your table and doing something like you are to mekkis now to you.
00:31:29 <Darkkapow> 00:29 <Darkkapow> You wouldn't tolerate it.
00:31:29 <Darkkapow> 00:29 <Darkkapow> And you are being extremely ignorant and rude to mekkis who was genuinely trying to put something for you to fight.
00:31:29 <Mekkis> Acentes, it wasn't your comment
00:31:30 <Mason> I think they were already hurt
00:31:36 <Darkkapow> he quit after i pm'd him
00:32:01 <Mekkis> that would do it
00:32:24 <Darkkapow> I put reason to the man he ignored it and left as his right
00:33:02 <Acentes> i mean he was quoteing the rule book and thats why I made my comment
00:34:06 <Darkkapow> it wasn't you acentes.
00:34:12 <Darkkapow> You can relax.
00:38:26 <Mason> That was interesting to watch
00:38:28 <Steven> so mason, this is where i hang out most of the time. lol
00:39:27 <Darkkapow> However what happened is not a common occurance.
00:39:38 <Darkkapow> occurrence even.
00:39:39 <Steven> yeah very very rare
00:40:16 <Steven> my dog is staring at me.... i'mm eating cheese.
00:40:25 <Steven> and she thinks she is going to get some.
00:40:28 <Mason> I am curious as to how he would be at a table
00:41:15 <Darkkapow> ^ what despite my verbalization's I was trying to make him realise or think about.
00:42:03 <Steven> i think he might be under the impression that his high int score and skill checks means he's learned everything
00:44:08 <Steven> my wizard is 2 games and eyes of the ten away from having 38 int.
00:45:17 <Steven> might only be 1 game and eyes
00:46:08 <Acentes> ok what is this about 2 games and eyes of the ten
00:46:40 <Steven> im gming eyes of the ten sometime soon
00:49:17 <Acentes> ok could someone answer for me a rather odd question ok I know eyes of the ten is a PFS scenario but how does that relate to a player ending up with 38 int thats just a bit insane honestly.
00:50:41 <Mason> I think its just a timing thing. Not directly related
00:50:53 <Steven> yeah, its due to my build
00:51:51 <Acentes> Steven care to tell me about the build in PM
00:53:30 <Steven> I dont share my power builds sorry.
00:53:51 <Mason> I still cant decide if I like brawler or monk more for my mock professional wrestler build
00:54:16 <Acentes> its not like i'm gonna use it for PFS I still to Paladins for PFS
00:54:23 <Acentes> \Stick even^
00:57:12 <Steven> thats a hard choice mason.
00:58:31 <Mason> brawler grants me versatility with that gain a feat temporarily thing
00:58:43 <Mason> my unarmed damage seems to be the same asa monk
00:59:12 <Mason> and theres plenty of bonus feats I can pick
00:59:54 <Steven> acentes you can read about my character here: http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2ppsv&page=2?Your-Character-is-the-End-Boss#60
01:01:15 <Steven> might put off buying the +5 book until i buy a +6 con belt.
01:01:51 <Steven> cause 36hp is pretty awesome, and he's got pretty insane DCs to begin with.
01:07:09 <Mason> i do like the manuver master where I can just hit someone with dirty trick and trip in the same attack
01:08:02 <Steven> yeah, its pretty damn effective.
01:09:25 <Mason> especially when it moves to the greater version of either
01:09:47 <Mason> dirty trick takes a standard to remove and trip causes them to provoke from me
01:14:35 <Mason> really wish i could play more PFS. Theres cool things I wanna do with my characters
01:17:15 <Mason> just wanna load up my a-hole battle herald with banners

06:28:30 <Mekkis> he did
06:28:37 <Steven> basically what happens with being a diviner is you get a feeling something is about to go south... earthquake, somebody stabbing you, a rat running across your foot.
06:28:38 <Mekkis> a Sending spell went off on him
06:28:52 <Mekkis> and he learnt "Hey, it's your mother. Why don't you ever come around"
06:29:06 <Avatar> how does that initiatite combat
06:29:16 <Brunius> maybe he doesn't like his mother
06:29:17 <Mekkis> then he was required to make a will save
06:29:46 <Mekkis> which, to be honest, I should have rolled without his knowledge, because then he started metagaming more
06:30:20 <Avatar> what happened then
06:30:22 <Mekkis> claiming that as a GM, I should be supplying him with an exhaustive list of Everything that was capable of forcing an interplanar will save
06:30:49 <Avatar> did he say exactly that
06:31:03 <Mekkis> not exactly that
06:31:04 <Steven> over the course of about 25 minutes.... yes.
06:31:10 <Brunius> <CWheezy> Mekkis, as a GM, I should be supplying him with an exhaustive list of Everything that was capable of forcing an interplanar will save
06:31:20 <Brunius> something something logs
06:31:48 <Avatar> that doesn't sound right
06:31:54 <Avatar> it doesn't make sense
06:32:35 Gamera ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
06:33:25 <Steven> there was a fair bit of what i assume is frustration and anger at that point.
06:33:39 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:48:02 <CWheezy> it wasn't sending though, since I was mentally attacked by something
06:33:40 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:48:05 <Steven> beast 1, 2, and 3.
06:33:40 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:48:28 <CWheezy> ok so it will take me a while to read all these, since there is no easy way to search this way
06:33:40 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:48:53 <CWheezy> search by spells they cast
06:33:40 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:48:56 <Mekkis> you can't think of any specific monster that would do this
06:33:41 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:49:14 <CWheezy> I don't want to look at bestiaries
06:34:42 <Avatar> read all of what
06:34:57 <Mekkis> the bestiaries
06:35:02 <Mekkis> and the spells
06:35:15 <Avatar> he responds to steven in that last line
06:35:17 <Mekkis> he felt he was entitled to know what was hitting him
06:35:31 <Avatar> what's before that
06:36:18 <Avatar> sec
06:36:28 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:43:35 <Mekkis> you feel a tingle, but nothing happens
06:36:29 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:43:37 <Mekkis> your turn
06:36:29 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:43:41 <CWheezy> spellcraft

06:36:35 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:44:15 <dicebot> CWheezy, 1d20+37: [1d20=8] 45
06:36:37 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:44:19 <CWheezy> 45 spellcraft
06:36:39 <Avatar> don't spam-paste, I've got the log
06:36:39 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:44:28 <Mekkis> seems like you were targetted by /sending/
06:36:41 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:44:39 <CWheezy> !roll 1d20+37
06:36:43 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:44:39 <dicebot> CWheezy, 1d20+37: [1d20=13] 50
06:40:02 <Avatar> I like this:
06:40:02 <Avatar> [00:17] <CWheezy> you know that time doesn't actually stop
06:40:02 <Avatar> [00:17] <CWheezy> I just move fast
06:40:20 <Steven> yup
06:40:29 <Steven> and he kept saying nethys is omnipotent... which he isnt.
06:40:49 <Avatar> you guys go into justification a lot
06:41:05 <Avatar> after a certain amount of justifying, you just have to say "that's how I'm ruling it this time"
06:41:17 <Steven> yeah, i wasnt GM though.
06:41:19 <Avatar> and focus less on justifying from then on and more on moving on
06:42:49 <Steven> anyways
06:43:02 <Steven> so i went and downloaded neverwinter
06:43:08 <Steven> its not bad
06:43:20 <Avatar> commune is 1 question per round isn't it
06:43:24 <Avatar> isn't that RAI
06:43:33 <Avatar> 1 question/answer = 1 round
06:43:44 <Avatar> I've never seen it used in combat before
06:43:54 <Steven> it is intended to take a while to get your answers
06:44:10 <Steven> which is why there is a 10 minute cast time.
06:44:31 <Steven> it gets rules wonky when you wish-Commune
06:46:59 <Avatar> oh
06:47:08 <Avatar> how was he casting a 10 minute spell in 1d4+1 rounds
06:47:36 <Avatar> because wish is instant?
06:48:09 <Avatar> mekkis made a very fair call to say that you still can't get responses during time stop
06:48:34 <Avatar> the line gets blurry when you're talking to a god, but if that's the way he wants to lean, fair enough
06:49:06 <Steven> yeah, like i said, mekkis was generous, i wouldnt have allowed any answers until timestop was over
06:50:15 <Avatar> cwheezy was pretty clearly not understanding what was going on throughout this
06:50:37 <Avatar> he didn't know that combat rounds can occur when no combat is actually happening
06:51:41 <Avatar> it's messy in that it was one thing after another
06:51:51 <Avatar> not using quotes for his questions
06:52:10 <Avatar> he assumed his player-questions weren't going to be considered as commune-questions
06:52:21 <Avatar> that's where his bad faith came in, and that is bad faith
06:54:01 <Avatar> there comes a point where you've got to step back and say "okay, this is how it'll work. you get all your answers at the end of time stop, combat rounds can happen just whenever time needs to be tracked, 1 question/answer per round for the purposes of this, use quotes when you're asking your commune questions, don't take too long with your thinking or I'll give you a warning where you'll have to
06:54:01 <Avatar> delay if you take much longer"
06:56:07 <Mekkis> yeah
06:56:15 <Mekkis> Anyway, I am writing up the encounter
07:05:05 <Acentes> ?
07:08:09 <Steven> and im playing neverwinter
07:10:33 <Avatar> what
07:11:06 <Avatar> what is the question
07:11:55 <Acentes> just wondering because I am extremely confused Avatar
07:12:10 <Avatar> about what
07:16:21 Acentes has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
07:19:22 <Avatar> anyone know much about NINJA TRICKS
07:19:30 <Steven> yup
07:20:04 <Avatar> okay well I'm looking at WALL CLIMBER
07:20:09 <Avatar> which gives you a 20ft climb speed
07:20:17 <Avatar> what are the side effects of that, if any
07:22:03 <Steven> well .00002% of the time you may find yourself with an uncontrollable urge to wear red and blue spandex clothing
07:22:23 <Avatar> wut
07:22:26 <Avatar> you can't climb smooth surfaces
07:22:37 <Steven> you cannot climb perfectly smooth surfaces
07:22:47 <Avatar> ok what other benefits
07:22:50 <Steven> like a glass tower
07:24:34 <Avatar> okay, so
07:24:43 <Avatar> you wouldn't get a +8 bonus to climb
07:24:50 <Avatar> or always be able to take 10
07:25:00 <Avatar> or not lose your dex bonus while climbing
07:28:44 Brunius has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
07:30:55 <Steven> if you have a climb speed you retain your dex while climbing
07:31:11 <Steven> you do not have to make climb checks to climb
07:32:01 <Steven> under normal circumstances, like if a rockslide starts while your climbing a cliff that calls for a climb check... yeah you still have to make that
07:33:25 <Avatar> I think it's hugely situational but I can't find a combat feat I can use
07:33:52 <Steven> really? what level?
07:33:59 <Avatar> 8
07:34:26 <Steven> pure ninja?

16:44:03 <s_gmusic> some guys in my shop were talking about "annoying songs" earlier, and ranted about nyan cat.
16:44:33 <s_gmusic> not only did I play the original song the nyan.cat loop was from, I bet them $5 each I had something more annoying AND that it was older.
16:44:49 <s_gmusic> walked out with $30 after I played that for 4 minutes. >:D

18:16:24 <Steven> indeed.
19:05:39 <Avatar> some interesting conversation going on about roleplay in the facebook group for PFS melbourne
19:09:05 <Steven> is it really that interesting?
19:10:27 <Avatar> very
19:10:32 <Avatar> I would not mention it otherwise
19:10:41 <Avatar> not only that
19:10:54 <Avatar> but if I were wrong I would tell you right now despite my pride
19:12:23 <Steven> kick ass mang
19:12:59 <Avatar> ya
19:13:00 <Avatar> think about it
19:13:43 <Steven> I played my rage prophet today
19:13:46 <Steven> no credit
19:13:54 <Steven> cost me 2 prestige for a potion of remove curse
19:14:38 <Steven> but i got to insult a BBEG
19:14:51 <Steven> Cause it was ugly as fuck
19:15:03 <Steven> I was like DAMN! you ugly like yo momma!
19:15:20 <Steven> and the creature was like WHAT DO YOU KNOW OF MY MOTHER!
19:15:46 <Avatar> nice
19:15:54 <Avatar> do you know of a prestige class where you get to be a hellknight
19:16:09 <Steven> and so on my turn, i was like, I know she was so ugly your father took her to work with him so he didnt have to kiss her goodbye.
19:16:51 <Avatar> snap
19:17:06 <Steven> yeah, there are two of them where you are technically a hellknight
19:18:36 <Avatar> what book/s are they in
19:18:55 <Steven> inner sea world guide and paths of prestige
19:19:29 <Steven> one is named Hellknight
19:20:03 <Steven> and the other one is Hellknight signifier
19:21:42 <Avatar> interesting
19:21:56 <Steven> there was some serious bitching on the forums because hellknight signifier was originally going to be a reward if you played through the zarta thing.
19:22:13 <Avatar> I need to use those recommendations you gave me yesterday
19:22:24 <Steven> but people threw such a bitch mike opened them up.
19:22:28 <Avatar> with the spell changing thing, the book says you can only change a single spell?
19:22:41 <Steven> only a single spell every 3 levels i think
19:23:13 <Steven> the reason you should change them is because the DCs are low enough that they are really just wasting a turn for the most part.
19:23:22 <Avatar> so when I hit 8th level, I can only change one spell, right
19:23:28 <Steven> yup
19:23:38 <Avatar> I don't want to have to choose :o)
19:24:08 <Avatar> I'll probably grab liberating command, that seems a little too important
19:24:22 <Avatar> my character was the damage dealer yesterday
19:24:27 <Avatar> quite a turnaround from my old build
19:24:48 <Brunius> Avatar: 1pm
19:25:06 <Avatar> oh
19:25:12 Avatar has changed the topic to: PFS: TBA || SS: Sat 4th 1pm || WotW: Sat 11th 11am || All topic times are AEDT (UTC+11:00); set your timezone on the site to see your local times in the Schedule! | Pathfinder Online http://www.pfrpg.com.au
19:25:34 <Steven> so... i know you probably dont want to see this avatar.
19:25:36 <Steven> but....
19:25:54 <Steven> If you are a spontaneous spellcaster (such as a bard, oracle, sorcerer, or summoner), you can retrain a spell known. This retraining takes 2 days per spell level of the new spell (or 1 day in the case of a cantrip or orison) and requires a trainer who can cast the spell you want. The trainer must cast the same kind of spells as you do (arcane or divine)
19:26:21 <Avatar> I can't retrain anymore man
19:26:28 <Avatar> I am holding my prestige for dear life
19:26:32 <Brunius> Sure you can
19:26:40 <Avatar> as it is I didn't spend as much as I was supposed to yesterday and things turned out very badly
19:27:01 <Steven> yeah you never got around to telling us what happened.
19:27:05 <Steven> spill the beans son!
19:27:11 <Avatar> I think half of you haven't played the scenario yet
19:27:22 <Avatar> scenarios
19:27:27 <Avatar> we played both fingerprints and fury
19:27:29 <Steven> so no specifics.
19:27:33 <Avatar> from bloody 10am to half past midnight
19:27:47 <Avatar> "it's only a season 0, it won't go long"
19:27:48 <Steven> wtf man....
19:27:59 <Avatar> it was treacherous
19:28:02 <Avatar> most treacherous
19:28:14 <Avatar> some doors are meant to be remain unopened
19:28:19 <Avatar> -be
19:30:17 <Steven> If memory serves.
19:30:28 <Steven> fury is the one where Honey almost died.
19:35:17 <Mekkis> do we have CWheezy back
19:37:30 <Brunius> I hope not
19:38:27 <Steven> no, he said he wouldnt be back today
19:38:34 <Steven> cause he was going to be 'busy'
19:41:42 <Steven> in other news i found an anger of the gods and a gift of immortality in a stack of commons/uncommons from the draft earlier in the day.
19:46:56 <Avatar> I can never tell if cwheezy is actually pissed off or just likes the debate
19:47:38 <Steven> last night.... pissed

21:14:59 <Mekkis> Avatar, did you see what happened last night?
21:15:18 <Mekkis> he managed to make a Surprise Round take over 40 minutes
21:16:24 <Steven> what were his spells prepared?
21:17:08 <Avatar> how did you manage that
21:17:27 <Mekkis> pretty simple. He kept bitching
21:17:47 <Mekkis> It was 'you're a diviner, you feel that initiative would be rolled'
21:17:58 <Mekkis> he gets a 45, casts time stop
21:18:09 <Mekkis> then starts trying to work out what to do
21:18:14 <Steven> my int is 32, i'm level 20, i have +20-30 to kn checks... i know all the spells that could ever be cast!!!!!!
21:18:36 <Mekkis> Steven, to be fair, his cheese did give him every 1-6th level spell
21:18:42 <Avatar> time stop doesn't last for 40 minutes
21:19:07 <Mekkis> 40 minutes real-time
21:19:47 <Avatar> you can make him delay if he takes too long
21:20:02 <Mekkis> he was claiming that that was 'bad faith'
21:20:06 <Steven> yeah, but saying i know ever spell that could ever be cast is a strech, considering they come out with 1-2 new spells with each publication
21:20:31 <Avatar> what's bad faith
21:21:02 <Steven> making him delay, not telling him a spell he cant see/hear being cast.
21:21:24 <Steven> basically anything that happened.
21:21:27 <Avatar> what has good/bad faith got to do with that
21:21:44 <Avatar> does he think that you think that he is mucking around specifically to stall for time
21:21:45 <Steven> i even invited another VO into the room to watch it.
21:22:15 <Avatar> I don't understand the issue
21:22:30 <Steven> well... he took 40 minutes agonizing of what to do in a surprise round.
21:22:45 <Steven> he decided to cast timestop, then commune.
21:22:49 <Steven> from wish
21:22:51 <Avatar> he shouldn't get 40 minutes
21:23:03 <Avatar> he should get a reasonable amount of time, then you tell him make a decision quickly or you'll have to delay
21:23:05 <Steven> mekkis was super nice and let him actually ask questions
21:23:19 <Avatar> if he can't comprehend that, add an explanation about how that works, give him a bit of extra time to contemplate
21:23:31 <Avatar> that can't take more than 10
21:23:35 <Avatar> the game moves on
21:23:37 <Steven> because i would have been like, nope unable to communicate with anyone not effected by timestop
21:24:08 <Avatar> yeah
21:24:16 <Avatar> the only communication is between that player and the GM
21:24:22 <Avatar> I think? does time stop affect allies as well
21:24:23 <Mekkis> and he was like "now I can ask 20 questions"
21:24:30 <Mekkis> in one round
21:24:38 <Avatar> !spell time stop
21:24:45 <diebot> Avatar, TIME STOP transmutation ([]) sorcerer/wizard 9 1 standard action Range: personal you Comp: V Duration: 1d4+1 rounds (apparent time); see text Save: SR:Source: PFRPG Core
21:24:45 <diebot> The description is too long to send over IRC. View http://nl.ti4200.info/vpsirc/spells/time_stop.html
21:24:46 <Mekkis> then he got annoyed at the first question: 'am I under attack"
21:24:52 <Mekkis> with the response 'no'
21:25:13 <Avatar> was his situation clear
21:25:39 <Mekkis> of course not. He'd just known through diviner magic that a surprise round had occurred
21:25:55 <Avatar> what kind of diviner magic
21:26:06 <Steven> its the problem with being a diviner and going first in surprise round with a +25 init and auto 20s
21:26:19 <Mekkis> diviners always get to act in the surprise round
21:26:21 <Avatar> but you have to know what's happening for that
21:26:26 <Steven> diviner is a wizard school
21:26:29 <Mekkis> nope
21:26:37 <Avatar> surprise rounds aren't exactly tangible situations
21:26:37 <Steven> specialist
21:26:54 <Avatar> no surprise round happens if nothing actually happens
21:27:07 <Mekkis> something DID happen
21:27:15 <Mekkis> 40 minutes later, in the surprise round
21:27:16 <Avatar> then he has to know what it is

21:27:35 <Mekkis> he did
21:27:41 <Steven> basically what happens with being a diviner is you get a feeling something is about to go south... earthquake, somebody stabbing you, a rat running across your foot.
21:27:42 <Mekkis> a Sending spell went off on him
21:27:56 <Mekkis> and he learnt "Hey, it's your mother. Why don't you ever come around"
21:28:11 <Avatar> how does that initiatite combat
21:28:20 <Brunius> maybe he doesn't like his mother
21:28:21 <Mekkis> then he was required to make a will save
21:28:50 <Mekkis> which, to be honest, I should have rolled without his knowledge, because then he started metagaming more
21:29:24 <Avatar> what happened then
21:29:26 <Mekkis> claiming that as a GM, I should be supplying him with an exhaustive list of Everything that was capable of forcing an interplanar will save
21:29:53 <Avatar> did he say exactly that
21:30:07 <Mekkis> not exactly that
21:30:09 <Steven> over the course of about 25 minutes.... yes.
21:30:14 <Brunius> <CWheezy> Mekkis, as a GM, I should be supplying him with an exhaustive list of Everything that was capable of forcing an interplanar will save
21:30:25 <Brunius> something something logs
21:30:53 <Avatar> that doesn't sound right
21:30:58 <Avatar> it doesn't make sense
21:32:30 <Steven> there was a fair bit of what i assume is frustration and anger at that point.
21:32:44 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:48:02 <CWheezy> it wasn't sending though, since I was mentally attacked by something
21:32:44 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:48:05 <Steven> beast 1, 2, and 3.
21:32:44 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:48:28 <CWheezy> ok so it will take me a while to read all these, since there is no easy way to search this way
21:32:44 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:48:53 <CWheezy> search by spells they cast
21:32:44 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:48:56 <Mekkis> you can't think of any specific monster that would do this
21:32:44 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:49:14 <CWheezy> I don't want to look at bestiaries
21:33:47 <Avatar> read all of what
21:34:01 <Mekkis> the bestiaries
21:34:06 <Mekkis> and the spells
21:34:19 <Avatar> he responds to steven in that last line
21:34:21 <Mekkis> he felt he was entitled to know what was hitting him
21:34:36 <Avatar> what's before that
21:35:23 <Avatar> sec
21:35:33 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:43:35 <Mekkis> you feel a tingle, but nothing happens
21:35:33 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:43:37 <Mekkis> your turn
21:35:33 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:43:41 <CWheezy> spellcraft
21:35:33 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:43:45 <CWheezy> knowledge checks
21:35:33 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:43:55 <Mekkis> make them
21:35:33 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:44:08 <Mekkis> knowledge arcana
21:35:33 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:44:15 <CWheezy> !roll 1d20+37
21:35:33 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:44:15 <dicebot> CWheezy, 1d20+37: [1d20=8] 45
21:35:33 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:44:19 <CWheezy> 45 spellcraft
21:35:33 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:44:28 <Mekkis> seems like you were targetted by /sending/
21:35:33 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:44:39 <CWheezy> !roll 1d20+37
21:35:33 <Mekkis> Dec 15 23:44:39 <dicebot> CWheezy, 1d20+37: [1d20=13] 50
21:35:43 <Avatar> don't spam-paste, I've got the log
21:39:06 <Avatar> I like this:
21:39:07 <Avatar> [00:17] <CWheezy> you know that time doesn't actually stop
21:39:07 <Avatar> [00:17] <CWheezy> I just move fast
21:39:25 <Steven> yup
21:39:34 <Steven> and he kept saying nethys is omnipotent... which he isnt.
21:39:54 <Avatar> you guys go into justification a lot
21:40:10 <Avatar> after a certain amount of justifying, you just have to say "that's how I'm ruling it this time"
21:40:21 <Steven> yeah, i wasnt GM though.
21:40:24 <Avatar> and focus less on justifying from then on and more on moving on
21:41:54 <Steven> anyways
21:42:07 <Steven> so i went and downloaded neverwinter
21:42:12 <Steven> its not bad
21:42:25 <Avatar> commune is 1 question per round isn't it
21:42:28 <Avatar> isn't that RAI
21:42:37 <Avatar> 1 question/answer = 1 round
21:42:49 <Avatar> I've never seen it used in combat before
21:42:59 <Steven> it is intended to take a while to get your answers
21:43:15 <Steven> which is why there is a 10 minute cast time.
21:43:36 <Steven> it gets rules wonky when you wish-Commune
21:46:03 <Avatar> oh
21:46:13 <Avatar> how was he casting a 10 minute spell in 1d4+1 rounds
21:46:40 <Avatar> because wish is instant?
21:47:13 <Avatar> mekkis made a very fair call to say that you still can't get responses during time stop
21:47:39 <Avatar> the line gets blurry when you're talking to a god, but if that's the way he wants to lean, fair enough
21:48:11 <Steven> yeah, like i said, mekkis was generous, i wouldnt have allowed any answers until timestop was over
21:49:19 <Avatar> cwheezy was pretty clearly not understanding what was going on throughout this
21:49:41 <Avatar> he didn't know that combat rounds can occur when no combat is actually happening
21:50:45 <Avatar> it's messy in that it was one thing after another
21:50:55 <Avatar> not using quotes for his questions
21:51:15 <Avatar> he assumed his player-questions weren't going to be considered as commune-questions
21:51:26 <Avatar> that's where his bad faith came in, and that is bad faith
21:53:05 <Avatar> there comes a point where you've got to step back and say "okay, this is how it'll work. you get all your answers at the end of time stop, combat rounds can happen just whenever time needs to be tracked, 1 question/answer per round for the purposes of this, use quotes when you're asking your commune questions, don't take too long with your thinking or I'll give you a warning where you'll have to
21:53:06 <Avatar> delay if you take much longer"
21:55:12 <Mekkis> yeah
21:55:19 <Mekkis> Anyway, I am writing up the encounter
22:07:14 <Steven> and im playing neverwinter
22:18:26 <Avatar> anyone know much about NINJA TRICKS
22:18:34 <Steven> yup
22:19:09 <Avatar> okay well I'm looking at WALL CLIMBER
22:19:13 <Avatar> which gives you a 20ft climb speed
22:19:21 <Avatar> what are the side effects of that, if any
22:21:08 <Steven> well .00002% of the time you may find yourself with an uncontrollable urge to wear red and blue spandex clothing
22:21:27 <Avatar> wut
22:21:30 <Avatar> you can't climb smooth surfaces
22:21:42 <Steven> you cannot climb perfectly smooth surfaces
22:21:51 <Avatar> ok what other benefits
22:21:54 <Steven> like a glass tower
22:23:39 <Avatar> okay, so
22:23:48 <Avatar> you wouldn't get a +8 bonus to climb
22:23:54 <Avatar> or always be able to take 10
22:24:05 <Avatar> or not lose your dex bonus while climbing
22:41:08 <***> Buffer Playback...
22:41:08 <***> Playback Complete.
22:41:35 <Steven> !findchar James
22:41:44 <diebot> Steven, Character: James, number: 413867( http://www.pfrpg.com.au/viewchar.php5?char=413867 )
22:41:45 <Steven> !fchar james
22:42:42 <Avatar> http://www.pfrpg.com.au/viewchar.php5?char=413
22:43:26 <Steven> yeah why not get weapon focus?
22:43:51 <Steven> or dodge
22:43:59 <Avatar> I don't really need weapon focus
22:44:09 <Avatar> dodge is a bit redundant I think
22:44:33 <Avatar> if I was going to get more stuff to add to AC, very maybe, but I'm not doing that
22:44:36 <Steven> well, with dodge you go to mobility and then spring attack
22:44:49 <Avatar> I don't want to spring attack, I want to full attack
22:45:03 <Steven> and then you swift action luck, spring attack-butterfly sting
22:45:15 <Avatar> ooo
22:45:20 <Avatar> that's not a bad idea actually
22:45:32 <Avatar> but I still want to full attack
22:45:50 <Steven> hmmm.
22:45:57 <Avatar> moving between swift actions for luck and arcane strike is a pain in the ass
22:46:22 <Avatar> it's like the different attacks on my gunslinger I have set out, except it happens every fucking round
22:47:12 <Brunius> Paladins have like six class abilities tied to swift actions
22:47:17 <Steven> too bad you already retrained... i have a funny build for ya.
22:47:19 <Brunius> It's also a pain in the ass
22:47:24 <Avatar> they only need one - lay on hands
22:47:30 <Brunius> Smite?
22:47:44 <Avatar> if I build a paladin, it'll have 3rd level feat: extra lay on hands
22:47:48 <Avatar> 5th level feat: extra lay on hands
22:47:52 <Avatar> 7th, 9th, 11th, etc
22:48:08 <Avatar> swift action no provoke self healing? cmon
22:48:11 <Steven> HA if anyone has the right to bitch about swift action limitations its inquisitors.
22:48:32 <Avatar> it's archaeologist bards man
22:48:41 <Avatar> it takes 3 or 4 rounds to "charge up"
22:49:00 <Avatar> first round, archaeologist luck, hit
22:49:08 <Avatar> second round, haste, hit
22:49:14 <Avatar> third round good hope, hit
22:49:18 <Avatar> fourth round, arcane strike, hit
22:49:34 <Avatar> that's not quite right, fourth round is a.luck again because it only lasts that long
22:49:58 <Avatar> before the arcane strikes can come out
22:50:03 <Steven> yeah thats nice.
22:50:25 <Avatar> boots of speed are nice actually, that's a free action haste
22:50:36 <Avatar> which I sorely needed with only 2 3rd level slots
22:50:40 <Avatar> and good hope being one of them
22:50:47 <Avatar> that spell is a lifesaver
22:51:02 <Avatar> I don't know how heroism is any good in comparison
22:51:06 <Avatar> !spell heroism
22:51:07 <diebot> Avatar, HEROISM enchantment (compulsion[mind-affecting]) bard 2, sorcerer/wizard 3, alchemist 3, summoner 3, witch 3, inquisitor 3 1 standard action Range: touch creature touched Comp: V, S Duration: 10 min./level Save: Will negates (harmless) SR:yes (harmless)Source: PFRPG Core
22:51:07 <diebot> This spell imbues a single creature with great bravery and morale in battle. The target gains a +2 morale bonus on attack rolls, saves, and skill checks.
22:51:17 <Steven> heroism lasts significantly longer
22:51:19 <Avatar> a single creature, fuck off
22:51:27 <Avatar> pathfinder is a team game
22:52:01 <Steven> its something you throw up at the beginning of a dungeon so that you dont have to burn a standard action to get yourself 'charge up"
22:52:58 <Avatar> it's worth burning a turn for the whole party to benefit
22:54:04 <Steven> i think that is dependent on how many damage dealers you have, if its just you and 3 other back line casters +2 to saves isnt worth a standard action
22:55:18 <Steven> Good hope is great if you've an extra turn to burn, like you got in on a surprise round
22:55:48 <Avatar> yeah it's never just one meleer
22:56:02 <Steven> now you're doomed to be the only meleer next game.
23:00:24 <Avatar> I found out yesterday that adamantine weapons dont' cover cold iron and silver DR
23:00:37 <Avatar> I was under the impression adamantine cancelled them out
23:00:53 <Avatar> otherwise I might not have bought a scimitar made of adamantine
23:04:53 <Steven> +1 magic +2 Silver +3 cold Iron +4 Adamantine +5 Alignment
23:05:08 <Steven> otherwise material only bypasses specific DR
23:05:21 <Brunius> Where is that Steven
23:05:27 <Brunius> People keep telling me that isn't a thing
23:05:36 <Steven> what isnt a thing?
23:07:30 <Avatar> what is +1 magic +2 silver etc
23:07:44 <Steven> weapon enhancement bonus'
23:07:47 <Avatar> the number bonus bypasses the material?
23:08:12 <Avatar> that wasn't how I understood it
23:08:25 <Steven> yeah and they are cumulative, so a +5 weapon will bypass magic, silver cold iron, adamantine and alignment based DR
23:08:29 <Avatar> I knew +3 overcomes silver and cold iron, didn't know about +2
23:08:41 <Avatar> +5 overcoming alignment rings a bell
23:08:58 <Brunius> yeah that's it
23:08:58 <Avatar> where's this in the CRB
23:09:03 <Brunius> where is that steven
23:09:50 <Steven> oh hell if i know, let me go read a bit see if i can find it/
23:10:42 Tashes has quit (EOF from client)
23:11:34 <Steven> im going to guess its under DR or magic weapons
23:13:55 <Steven> oh i was wrong, +2 doesnt overcome anything, but avatar was, +3 is coldiron/silver
23:14:53 <Steven> so +1 Magic, +3 Coldiron/Silver +4 Adamantine, +5 Alignment.
23:15:08 <Steven> page 562 of the core
23:16:06 <Steven> and i heard somewhere that +6 overcomes Epic, but i dont know where that ruling might be
23:17:50 <Steven> im going to guess a bestiary
23:18:05 <Steven> since thats where dr/epic was first mentioned
23:18:07 <Mekkis> +6 effective overcomes epic
23:18:10 <Mekkis> as per FAQ
23:18:23 <Mekkis> a +5 flaming weapon overcomes epic
23:20:29 <Steven> thats with the +equivalent rule in mythic right?
23:21:09 <Steven> i wonder if thats actually legal in pfs since the book was excluded from PFS completely
