00:05:53 <Avatar> agreeed
01:09:50 <Littlebob86> Hey guys, how are we all??
02:30:19 <s_gmusic> yay.
02:30:24 <s_gmusic> martial artist is lvl 6 now.
02:30:38 <s_gmusic> and 2 fame away from being able to purchase the Monk's Robes. :3
02:47:52 <Philderbeast> ello
02:49:28 <Brunius> you should totally make me webwright
02:49:36 <Philderbeast> apply for it then :P
02:50:04 <Brunius> I'm probably not allowed to hold an officer position
02:50:17 <Philderbeast> are you a member (or willing to become one)
02:50:24 <Brunius> I am indeed a member
02:50:31 <Philderbeast> then you can become an officer
02:50:51 <Brunius> Someone told me I couldn't become a marshal because that was an officer position and officers have to be over 18
02:51:03 <Philderbeast> oh yea that might be an issue
02:51:15 <Philderbeast> you also need to be authorized to become a marshal
02:51:23 <Brunius> I am authorised
02:51:39 <Brunius> well not as a marshal
02:51:51 <Brunius> but there was talk of authorising a group as target archery marshals at festival
02:51:53 <Philderbeast> as a fighter i ment
02:52:09 <Brunius> Yeah, I'm authorised as a heavy
02:52:58 <Philderbeast> yea you need to be over 18 to be a marshal (thats specific to the position) im checking for othe officers
02:55:09 <Philderbeast> nup i cant find anything in any of the docs where i would expect it so go ahead and apply, and unless i find something your all good
02:55:28 <Brunius> huh
02:55:38 <Philderbeast> other then for marshals that is
02:55:39 <Brunius> I only vaguely skimmed the email about it, what do I need to know?
02:55:41 <Brunius> html, css?
02:55:47 <Philderbeast> and wordpress
02:56:03 <Philderbeast> http://lochac.sca.org/webwright/pages/KL_Web_Handbook_May2012.pdf
02:56:09 <Philderbeast> read that and it has everything in it
02:56:23 <Philderbeast> its a bit shit and out of date but its still the current version
02:57:46 <Philderbeast> how old are you? 17?
02:57:55 <Brunius> yeah
03:03:43 <Lel> is there anybody on?
03:03:54 <Philderbeast> nope
03:04:16 <Lel> well that's pretty bad
03:04:29 <Philderbeast> yea im definatly not here
03:08:51 <Brunius> classic
03:09:48 <Avatar> nice one phil, we didn't need players anyway
03:11:40 <Philderbeast> wow scarcasm is so lost on some people
03:14:09 <Avatar> need some follow up to the sarcasm
03:23:04 <Philderbeast> we considering there is no one acculty active here... or wasent... i guess it was less scarcastic then i thought
03:32:27 <Avatar> you were on
03:36:15 <Avatar> what's expanded arcana
03:36:20 <Buzzby> Avatar - also buzzby, and yes, I've been registered for a while now.
03:37:52 <s_gmusic> !feat Expanded Arcana
03:37:59 <diebot> s_gmusic, EXPANDED ARCANA []Prereq: Caster level 1st, see Special. Your research has revealed new spells.
03:37:59 <diebot> Benefit: Add one spell from your class's spell list to your list of spells known. This is in addition to the number of spells normally gained at each new level in your class. You may instead add two spells from your class's spell list to your list of spells known, but both of these spells must be at least one level lower than the highest level
03:37:59 <diebot> spell you can cast in that class. Once made, these choices cannot be changed.
03:37:59 <diebot> Special: You can only take this feat if you possess levels in a class whose spellcasting relies on a limited list of spells known, such as the bard, oracle, and sorcerer. You can gain Expanded Arcana multiple times. Source: APG
03:38:25 <Avatar> yeah that would work
03:40:07 <s_gmusic> Makes sense, yeah. Cast Paragon Surge, choose Expanded Arcana for the free feat, gain 1 (or 2) spells you don't normally prepare
03:40:58 <Avatar> !feat paragon surge
03:40:58 <diebot> Avatar, DRAGON STYLE [Combat, Style] You call upon the spirit of dragonkind, gaining greater resilience, mobility, and fierceness from the blessing of these great beings. Prerequisites: Str 15, Improved Unarmed Strike, Acrobatics 3 ranks. Benefit: While using this style, you gain a +2 bonus on saving throws against sleep effects, paralysis
03:40:58 <diebot> effects, and stunning effects. You ignore difficult terrain when you charge, run, or withdraw. You can also charge through squares that contain allies. Further, you can add 1-1/2 times your Strength bonus on the damage roll for your first unarmed strike on a given round. Normal: You cannot charge or run through difficult terrain, and you cannot
03:40:58 <diebot> charge through a square that contains an ally. With an unarmed strike, you usually add your Strength bonus on damage rolls.
03:40:58 <diebot> Benefit: Source: UC
03:41:20 <Avatar> did I spell it wrong
03:41:31 <s_gmusic> nope, probably not in the bot, but it's a spell from the ARG
03:41:33 <s_gmusic> http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic/all-spells/p/paragon-surge
03:41:33 <Avatar> is paragon surge in an obscure book
03:41:44 <Avatar> what's going on mekkis
03:41:47 <Avatar> ARG
03:42:01 <s_gmusic> !spell Paragon Surge
03:42:04 <diebot> s_gmusic, PARAGON SURGE transmutation (polymorph[]) alchemist 3, cleric 3, magus 4, paladin 4, sorcerer/wizard 3, witch 3 1 standard action Range: personal (half-elf only) Comp: V, S Duration: 1 minute/level Save: SR:Source: Advanced Race Guide
03:42:04 <diebot> You surge with ancestral power, temporarily embodying all the strengths of both elvenkind and humankind simultaneously, and transforming into a paragon of both races, something greater than elf or human alone. Unlike with most polymorph effects, your basic form does not change, so you keep all extraordinary and supernatural abilities of your
03:42:04 <diebot> half-elven form as well as all of your gear. For the duration of the spell, you receive a +2 enhancement bonus to Dexterity and Intelligence and are treated as if you possessed any one feat for which you meet the prerequisites, chosen when you cast this spell.
03:42:24 <s_gmusic> you used the feat trigger, avatar. long day at work?
03:44:05 <andrey> it seems kinda game-breaking
03:44:17 <andrey> letting a sorcerer cast any spell from the list
03:44:32 <andrey> usually that sort of power is used by 9th level spells
03:44:34 <andrey> e.g. wish
03:45:44 <s_gmusic> you just add it to your spell list. if you can't cast that level of spell, you can't choose it.
03:46:32 <andrey> so basically it combines the best of both wizard and sorcerer
03:47:05 <andrey> hell even a wizard needs 15 minutes to prepare a spell when he leaves a slot open
03:47:22 <andrey> this half-elf can 'prepare' any spell in one round
03:47:48 <andrey> er, standard action
03:48:03 <s_gmusic> no
03:48:21 <s_gmusic> because when Paragon Surge ends, you lose the feat, which means you lose the spells chosen with the feat.
03:49:20 <andrey> most encounters are shorter than paragon surge
03:49:37 <andrey> most don't even last a full minute
03:50:23 <s_gmusic> use it for support spells, then, something you don't normally have or use, but is needed and would last past the duration of Suge
03:50:28 <s_gmusic> *Surge
03:50:50 <andrey> it doesn't seem mildly game-breaking to you?
03:51:28 <Avatar> paragon surge is mildly game breaking
03:52:27 <andrey> it seems like the sort of thing that would be banned
03:53:18 <s_gmusic> eh. there's worse stuff that's allowed.
03:54:43 <andrey> worse than turning a sorcerer into a super-wizard D:
03:55:50 <s_gmusic> Yes. You could play a Thassilonian Evocationist Shadowcaster :|
03:56:57 <s_gmusic> admittedly, though, that requires a boon from a high level and difficult scenario
03:57:06 <Mekkis> Avatar, want to run Heresy of Man II and III for Kapow and I?>
03:58:59 <andrey> since advanced raise guide is part of the srd, do you still need the book?
03:59:08 <andrey> to cast the spell in pfs
03:59:10 <Brunius> Yes
03:59:13 <andrey> *race
03:59:20 <Brunius> That's true for everything except the core rulebook
03:59:27 <andrey> cool
03:59:48 <s_gmusic> if it's in a book, you have to have the book.
04:02:37 <Avatar> the rule is if it's part of the "core assumption" you don't have to have the book
04:02:39 <Avatar> not the srd
04:10:22 <s_gmusic> Just to note, though, the Core Assumption is only the Core Rule Book and The Guide to Organized Play
04:26:18 <Avatar> I can run heresy after conline, but I'd be doing part 1 before 2 and 3
04:34:25 <Avatar> https://warhorn.net/events/conline-pfs-con/schedule/2014/05/23 for that game
04:35:20 <Avatar> you need to find the "register for this event" button before you can sign up to a game
05:03:55 <Avatar> not sure I know what a sylph is
05:04:12 <Brunius> it's what one of my friends named his car
05:04:19 <Brunius> otherwise, it's a bit like a dryad, isn't it?
05:04:50 <Avatar> then what is andrey on about
05:05:02 <Avatar> is it a monster
05:05:09 <Brunius> yeah
05:05:17 <Brunius> in the same way a dryad is a monster
05:05:31 <andrey> everything is a monster!
05:05:44 <Avatar> then what are you on about
05:05:56 <Avatar> stormborn bloodline
05:06:17 <Avatar> that sounds like a class feature
05:06:24 <Brunius> a sylph is like, an air spirit
05:06:27 <Brunius> or something
05:06:40 <Avatar> but there's no *choice* to make to get a bloodline
05:42:07 <Steven> sup
05:45:05 <andrey> Avatar, a sylph is a player race
05:45:33 <andrey> they have a racial trait that lets them treat their cha as 2 points higher for the elemental(air) bloodline
05:45:47 <Avatar> ARG?
05:45:50 <andrey> yes
05:59:16 <Steven> sup
06:17:30 <Steven> so how you all doin...
08:21:42 <Steve> whats the kill op code...
08:22:21 <Brunius> wat
08:22:36 <Steve> i cant remember how to kill people.
08:22:46 <Steve> like the guy using my name Steven
08:23:02 <Brunius> /nickop KILL Steven <password>
08:23:12 <Steve> ahhh.... i forgot the caps
08:23:22 <Brunius> might not need the caps, I'm not sure
08:23:35 <Steven> there we go.
09:23:09 <Mekkis> they're using " Sharper Viewing Angle with T-shaped Stand " as a selling point for a monitor
09:34:51 <Avatar> did anyone else make a pledge for facerig
09:35:06 <Avatar> apparently beta is available in august
09:36:11 <Avatar> in case you don't know what I'm on about: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbIWRd514-s
09:40:24 <Steven> well... anything to grab another customer lol
10:26:47 <s_gmusic> opinion on a Monk taking the Weapon Versatility feat from the Undead Slayer's Handbook and applying it to their unarmed strikes?
10:26:53 <s_gmusic> Weapon Versatility (Combat)
10:26:54 <s_gmusic> You can use your favored weapons in unconventional ways.
10:26:54 <s_gmusic> Prerequisites: Weapon Focus, base attack bonus +1.
10:26:54 <s_gmusic> Benefit: When wielding a weapon with which you have Weapon Focus, you can shift your grip as a swift action so that your weapon deals bludgeoning,
10:26:54 <s_gmusic> piercing, or slashing damage instead of the damage type normally dealt by
10:26:54 <s_gmusic> that weapon. You may switch back to the weapon’s normal damage type or another damage type as a swift action. If your base attack bonus is +5 or higher, using this feat is a free action instead.
11:03:44 <Yuugi> hi
12:39:02 <s_gmusic> "Black Cat is a thief/occasional vigilante who routinely tries to thwart Spider-Man by dealing out massive, incapacitating boners that are impossible to conceal in a skin-tight unitard and thus neutralize his ability to pursue her without breaking several public decency laws."
14:30:01 <andrey> I would disallow unless you have claws
15:00:26 <s_gmusic> http://i.imgur.com/pUenMTF.jpg
17:26:43 <Avatar> I guess so, you could choose a lot of weapons and that feat would look equally ridiculous
17:27:06 <Avatar> like a quarterstaff doing slashing damage
17:27:18 <Avatar> or a war hammer doing piercing
17:27:29 <Avatar> if those are feasable, unarmed strikes must be as well
17:27:40 <Avatar> you can take weapon focus unarmed can't you
17:28:25 <Mekkis> I would allow it. In PFS, however, YMMV
17:31:01 <Avatar> additional resources says all content in the book is legal
17:31:07 <Avatar> what's to dispute it
17:31:32 <Mekkis> "wielding a weapon"
17:31:44 <Avatar> good point
17:31:53 <Avatar> not sure if unarmed counts for wielding?
19:09:36 Topic for #d&d is: PFS: Sat 10th 10am (1-5,Avatar @ Conline) || WotW: Sat 24th 10am || SS:Sun 25th 10am || All topic times are AEST (UTC+10:00); set your timezone on the site to see your local times in the Schedule! | Pathfinder Online http://www.pfrpg.com.au
19:09:36 Topic for #d&d set by Avatar at Sun May 18 18:34:15 2014
19:09:36 <***> Buffer Playback...
19:09:36 <***> Playback Complete.
19:10:35 <Mekkis> Avatar, ARG isn't in diebot (yet)
19:30:07 <s_gmusic|Work> just finished copying my current main pathfinder character from HeroLab on paper. 1 scenario from leveling and then one more after that to have the fame needed to buy Monks Robes for it. :3
19:45:35 <Mekkis> Turns out that his Dispel Magic was sufficient to get rid of an Antimagic Field.
19:45:52 <tlotig> (this run online?)
19:46:21 <tlotig> who was the GM?
19:46:22 <Mekkis> nope
19:47:19 <tlotig> think I heard about this
19:48:51 <tlotig> any canberra players at the table?
19:49:26 <Mekkis> Yes
19:49:34 <tlotig> ahh
19:49:38 <tlotig> makes sense then
19:49:48 <Mekkis> where are you from, tlotig?
19:50:00 <tlotig> Canberra
19:50:08 <tlotig> I'm Sean
19:51:36 <tlotig> you?
19:59:02 <Mekkis> Please don't tell him who I am
20:01:51 <Avatar> do you know him
20:08:22 <Mekkis> yes. He's a player in Canberra who seems to exhibit almost every negative quality a PFS player could.
20:09:42 <andrey> can a sylph get the benefit of air affinity with stormborn bloodline?
20:09:48 <andrey> it seems like a sensible house rule
20:10:28 <tlotig> Sorry connection dropped, I am Sean from Canberra
20:14:09 <tlotig> How about you guys
20:28:49 <andrey> is using paragon surge + expanded arcana to get any spell from your list legal?
20:28:58 <andrey> in pfs and whatnot
21:20:25 <Kadzuk> Any PFS going on tonight?

21:48:34 <andrey> what happens with ties on rolls?
21:48:59 <andrey> it seems like a simple rule but I can't find it
21:50:52 <Steven> opposed rolls you mean like perception vs stealth
21:51:07 <andrey> yes
21:52:15 <Steven> with opposed rolls you must exceed the result
21:54:16 <andrey> so what exceeds what?
21:54:26 <andrey> if tie, reroll?
21:55:05 <Steven> no, a tie means you did not exceed the opposed check so you failed.
21:56:21 <andrey> so it's decided as player vs dm?
21:58:23 <Steven> no
21:59:42 <Steven> so person A rolls stealth, two turns later person B rolls perception. The perception is an opposed roll.
22:00:53 <andrey> what about bluff/sense motive, isn't that instant?
22:01:12 <Steven> yeah
22:01:46 <Steven> sense motive would be the opposed roll
