00:25:44 <Steven> yo
00:26:50 <Seraphine> hi guys :D
00:33:49 txtsd ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
00:52:27 Brunius ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
00:54:47 <Damalon01> back
00:55:24 <Damalon01> Bazz is gonna come with me to Unicon btw, he plays the Druid Sam Whiteteeth
00:58:42 <Avatar> sweet
00:58:51 <Avatar> yeah baz is unmistakable
00:59:11 <Avatar> just hit level 4
00:59:30 <Avatar> access to level 1 paladin spells
00:59:43 <Avatar> assuming 18 cha is enough to get a bonus spell, because you start with 0
00:59:57 <Damalon01> yep
01:00:17 <Damalon01> 18 gets you a bonus 1st, a bonus 2nd, a bonus 3rd and a bonus 4th
01:00:19 <Avatar> wow, 12 is enough to get a bonus
01:00:29 <Avatar> I always thought you needed 18 for some reason
01:00:29 <Damalon01> yuppers
01:00:52 <Avatar> I might be thinking 18+2 to get a second bonus slot at 1st
01:00:55 <Damalon01> nah you want it more for the bonus to saves, smite evil etc
01:01:08 <Avatar> !spell hero's defiance
01:01:10 <diebot> Avatar, HERO'S DEFIANCE conjuration (healing[]) paladin 1 1 immediate action Range: personal you Comp: V Duration: instantaneous Save: SR:Source: APG
01:01:10 <diebot> The instant before you are reduced to 0 or fewer hit points, you can expend a use of your lay on hands ability to heal yourself as if you had used lay on hands, plus an additional 1d6 hit points. If this healing brings your hit point total above 0 hit points, you do not fall, and may continue to act. If you have no more uses of lay on hands this
01:01:11 <diebot> spell has no effect.
01:01:26 <Mekkis> !spell inheritor's smite
01:01:27 <diebot> Mekkis, INHERITOR'S SMITE transmutation ([]) cleric/oracle 2, inquisitor 2, paladin 2 1 swift action Range: personal you Comp: V, S, DF Duration: see text Save: SR:Source: Inner Sea Gods
01:01:27 <diebot> You channel the power of righteousness into your weapon arm, allowing you to strike with great force. Your next melee attack (if made before the end of your next turn) gains a +5 sacred bonus on the attack roll. If the attack hits, you may immediately attempt a bull rush combat maneuver (with a +5 sacred bonus on your combat maneuver check) against
01:01:28 <diebot> the target without provoking an attack of opportunity; if your combat maneuver check exceeds the defender's CMD by more than 5, you do not need to move with the target to push it back more than 5 feet.
01:01:35 <Avatar> mate level 1
01:01:50 <Mekkis> bless weapon. Can't go wrong with that
01:01:58 <Avatar> !spell bless weapon
01:01:59 <diebot> Avatar, BLESS WEAPON transmutation ([]) paladin 1 1 standard action Range: touch weapon touched Comp: V, S Duration: 1 min./level Save: none SR:noSource: PFRPG Core
01:01:59 <diebot> This transmutation makes a weapon strike true against evil foes. The weapon is treated as having a +1 enhancement bonus for the purpose of bypassing the DR of evil creatures or striking evil incorporeal creatures (though the spell doesn't grant an actual enhancement bonus). The weapon also becomes good-aligned, which means it can bypass the DR of
01:01:59 <diebot> certain creatures. (This effect overrides and suppresses any other alignment the weapon might have.) Individual arrows or bolts can be transmuted, but affected projectile weapons (such as bows) don't confer the benefit to the projectiles they shoot. In addition, all critical hit rolls against evil foes are automatically successful, so every threat
01:01:59 <diebot> is a critical hit. This last effect does not apply to any weapon that already has a magical effect related to critical hits, such as a keen weapon or a vorpal sword.
01:02:53 <Avatar> either strong offense or storng defense
01:04:03 <Avatar> do paladins know the whole spell list like clerics?
01:04:08 <Damalon01> yup
01:04:27 <Damalon01> well my Tengu Ninja just made level 4
01:04:41 <Avatar> ya I know what that feels like!
01:21:17 <Damalon01> wooo my ninja's peck attack finally has a +0 attack bonus
01:25:24 <Steven> sup.
01:30:14 andrey ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
01:40:48 <Damalon01> Crane Style was changed awhile ago, was it the main style feat or one of the following feats? i think it was one of the later ones
01:46:44 <Damalon01> ok found it
02:04:23 txtsd has quit (Quit: derp)
02:13:10 txtsd ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
02:39:11 <Avatar> :D
02:45:37 <Brunius> :DDD
03:06:43 <Avatar> yo
03:07:07 <Brunius> sup
03:08:36 <Steven> word
03:19:12 <Brotherdice> Hello
03:19:50 <Avatar> yo
03:28:50 <Avatar> sup.
03:46:02 <Avatar> did you guys see the new series of quests blog post
04:15:44 <Mekkis> recent?
04:16:09 <Avatar> yeah, today-recent
04:16:40 <Avatar> http://paizo.com/paizo/blog/v5748dyo5lgjb?Quests-for-All
04:16:52 <Avatar> they have rewards now
04:17:00 <Avatar> but you can only play pregens with them
04:17:35 Avatar has quit (EOF from client)
04:19:29 <Mekkis> I do think the comments are very interesting
04:19:44 <Avatar> unbelievable isn't it
04:20:16 <Avatar> I didn't know what to say to respond to mike's bowing out comment
04:20:56 <Avatar> oh wait, did he edit the post
04:21:10 <Avatar> HA
04:21:23 <Mekkis> what did it say?
04:21:57 <Avatar> something along the lines of they release something new and free and they get negative points for it, and he isn't surprised
04:22:25 <Avatar> and that he wouldn't convince "you and dragnmoon" so he would bow out of that conversation
04:22:37 <Avatar> I can't tell if he was talking to drogon or me
04:23:01 <Avatar> it was in that comment that now just says "good luck with the quests and hopefully...."
04:23:20 <Mekkis> ah
04:24:03 <Mekkis> wow. 52 comments before in went off-topic. That's a record, probably
04:26:50 <Avatar> it probably would've went further if mike hadn't cut us off
04:28:49 <Damalon01> yo
04:30:37 <Damalon01> yo
04:36:57 <Avatar> yo
04:41:14 <Damalon01> howsit going?
04:51:42 <Mekkis> I don't know what Brock's thinking, really. Seems to be 'punish everyone because of powergamers who don't know when to stop'
05:16:10 <Steven> back.... i know... you're all glad im back.
05:16:19 <Steven> please try to keep the celebration to a minimum
05:17:23 <Steven> so how is everyone doing? rockin out?
05:18:04 <s_gmusic> just found out someone local was trying to use the "Adopted" trait to take a race trait from a race not allowed in Society. started a large argument over if you could or not. :|
05:18:20 <Brunius> http://www.timecube.com/
05:19:33 <Steven> what the hell is this?
05:21:13 <Brunius> If Earth stood still, it would have mid-day, mid-night, sun-up and sun-down as 4 corners. Each rotation of earth has 4 mid-days, 4 mid-nights, 4 sun-ups and 4 sun-downs.
05:21:24 <Brunius> accept the truth Steven
05:21:41 <Steven> nah i like living in the cave.
05:22:30 <Steven> cozy... really... i have a nice shadow puppet theater going on, there is a fire, people hangin out.
05:22:41 <Steven> fun times ya know.
05:25:13 <Mekkis> Hmmm... This will be a very lively next ten turns in this civ game.
05:29:24 <Avatar> what trait, what race?
05:33:41 <s_gmusic> no clue, heard about it second-hand.
05:34:04 <s_gmusic> !trait adopted
05:34:13 <s_gmusic> huh.
05:34:17 <s_gmusic> anyway: www.d20pfsrd.com/traits/social-traits/adopted
05:35:33 <s_gmusic> so, that's the description. now, if anyone bothered to read at the time, there's this line in several places on the Additional Resources page:
05:35:40 <s_gmusic> "Note: Racial feats, racial traits, and racial spells are only available for characters of the assigned race. Racial equipment and magic items can be purchased and used by any race as long as the specific item permits it."
05:38:25 <s_gmusic> that tells me that I can not choose a trait from that race (because it's seen with the sentence stating you need a boon to create a character of that race)
05:40:27 <Brunius> gandhi got manhattan project and backstabbed you along with france?
05:41:37 <Avatar> I think adopted does get around that
05:41:59 <Avatar> specific over general
05:42:59 <Brunius> sounds like perfect fodder for a 14 million page thread and a developer giving a ruling that clarifies nothing
05:43:08 <s_gmusic> even if the race is Not Allowed in society, like Goblin, Vishkanya, or Aasimar?
05:43:59 <Avatar> lovin' it
05:46:28 <Avatar> it's a trait, not a race
05:46:58 <Avatar> I don't know how crazy the traits are to consider that it might be an oversight
05:48:21 <Avatar> the fact that adopted isn't outright banned suggests they don't care
05:58:20 <Damalon01> hehehe
06:06:18 <Mekkis> Brunius, no. Songhai got the UN.
06:06:27 <Brunius> ah, yeah
06:06:35 <Brunius> that would be interesting
06:07:01 <Mekkis> So yeah. six turns before the UN vote
06:09:19 <Mekkis> problem is that Songhai gets about 2100 gold per turn
06:09:36 <Brunius> I find Civ's end-game really boring
06:11:39 <Mekkis> you're not jacking the difficulty up enough - or playing multiplayer
06:12:14 <Brunius> yeah, I've played multiplayer a couple of times
06:12:27 <Brunius> just none of my friends are willing to play super long games
06:12:30 <Brunius> and fair enough
06:12:40 <Brunius> it's the sort of thing I load up for a few hours a night
06:13:43 <Mekkis> this one is up for it

06:19:10 ChanOP gives channel operator status to Avatar
07:13:17 <Mekkis> If you plan to fly in Australia, at least try to act as if you take the threat of terrorism seriously, or you might get hauled off the plane, handed over to the cops, and banned from an airline.
07:19:00 <Avatar> at least try to act it
07:19:37 <Avatar> agree on civ's endgame being boring
07:19:45 <Avatar> by the end of it I am exhausted
07:19:51 <Avatar> and nothing unpredictable happens
07:20:15 <Brunius> In my current game, I own half the world, and past-me cleverly turned off science/political/diplomatic victories
07:21:33 <Mekkis> Avatar, I'm three turns away from someone winning a diplomatic victory.
07:21:47 <Avatar> na nobody ever wins a diplomatic victory
07:22:05 <Avatar> why would you turn those off?
07:24:12 <Mekkis> Avatar, I'm playing on Deity
07:24:24 <Avatar> ops
07:24:30 <Avatar> I tried playing on deity once
07:24:32 <Avatar> didn't get far !
07:24:56 <Mekkis> I'm three policies away from Cultural Victory
07:25:21 <Mekkis> Here's some trivia: Looks like they've purged SKR's Monk Ruling.
07:25:37 <Mekkis> http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2nrci?Sean-K-Reynolds-clarifies-Flurry-of-Blows
07:25:45 <Mekkis> check the link in the first post
07:26:59 <Avatar> 404
07:27:10 <Mekkis> exactly
07:27:37 <Avatar> was that a FAQ?
07:27:47 <Avatar> or just a clarification or what
07:28:02 <Mekkis> it's the whole "a monk can't flurry with a single weapon"
07:28:03 <Avatar> a deleted thread doesn't necessarily mean anything
07:28:04 <Mekkis> stuff
07:28:22 <Avatar> I'm not familiar with it
07:28:46 <Mekkis> basically, SKR wanted to prevent someone from flurrying with a temple sword
07:30:17 <Avatar> where is s_gmusic
07:30:44 <Mekkis> it was back late 2012.
07:30:45 <Avatar> I started watching transformers before bed last night and thought it was ending soon while I was completely falling asleep, turns out I was only half way through a 3 hour movie
07:34:22 <Mekkis> Jason had to step in and reverse the rulings
07:35:43 <Mekkis> http://web.archive.org/web/20120312113855/http://paizo.com/forums/dmtz5drg?Attacking-with-a-weapon
07:37:28 <Mekkis> Archive.org remembers - the first 50 posts at least
07:40:04 <Brunius> should I go to the legacy of stonelords game?
07:41:43 <Brunius> I should shouldn't I
07:44:43 <Brunius> Avatar: The warhorn link is broken
07:54:19 <Avatar> sean said he checked in with jason
08:26:51 <Avatar> what warhorn link
08:27:38 <Avatar> not stonelords, that one works

08:35:57 <Avatar> what are you rolling for
08:37:22 <Steven> generating loot.
08:37:45 <Avatar> I'd like some loot
08:49:27 <Brunius> shit
08:49:30 <Brunius> what level is bairaq
08:49:53 <Steven> level 4 in kingmaker.
08:50:34 <Steven> I can now spend 2 arcane points to increase my crit multiplier by 1 after i know i've crit.
08:51:21 <Steven> pretty stupid
08:51:26 <Brunius> 8.2, apparently
08:59:08 <Mekkis> I should write another article on the site
09:05:10 <Mekkis> he might have _said_ that
09:05:30 <Mekkis> it's a typical thing, where SKR makes a ruling without looking at its consequences
09:12:57 <Mekkis> Willing myself out of the hole, still gripping the rope, my mother's words echoing in my head, "The multiverse was not designed for overlapping dimensions". The powdered corn, as fine as talc, slides over the rope, and the parchment bursts in a flash as I recite the well-rehearsed words. As the spell is released, I will myself as far away as possible.
09:12:57 <Mekkis> I am falling.
09:12:57 <Mekkis> I see a flash of light.
09:12:57 <Mekkis> As I am drawn towards the vortex of my own creation, one final thought crosses through my mind:
09:12:58 <Mekkis> Will anyone remember my sacrifice?
10:44:58 <s_gmusic> huehuehue
16:16:56 <Forty-Bot> I'm making an oread monk with the student of stone archetype
16:17:05 <Forty-Bot> should I take the oread favored class bonus (+1/3 to hit on critical hit confirmation with unarmed strikes)?
16:17:37 <Forty-Bot> I've read that the monk struggles with damage output compared to the fighter or barbarian, but this seems like less of a boon than +3 hp
16:17:44 <Forty-Bot> ofc, 15 hp vs +5 to crit makes it seem less clear
16:23:47 <Avatar> hp 4 lyfe

18:48:30 <Mekkis> Brunius, you done tank rallies?
18:48:54 <Brunius> No?
18:52:39 <Mekkis> latest Wot patch
18:52:44 <Mekkis> pretty fun actually
19:10:37 <s_gmusic> I did a thing tuesday and glad for it.
19:10:59 <s_gmusic> traded in my copy of Destiny for Final fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn. so much better.
19:17:13 <Brunius> Yeah, I heard Destiny was lacklustre
20:58:40 <Mekkis> I just got a bunch of experience from killing myself.
21:15:18 <diebot> Special: You can gain this feat multiple times. Its effects do not stack. Each time you take the feat, it applies to a different spell. Source: UM
21:15:31 <Mekkis> !spell ill omen
21:15:34 <diebot> Mekkis, ILL OMEN enchantment (compulsion[mind-affecting]) witch 1 1 standard action Range: close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels) one creature Comp: V, S, M (hair from a black cat) Duration: 1 round/level or until discharged Save: none SR:yesSource: APG
21:15:35 <diebot> You afflict the target with bad luck. On the next d20 roll the target makes, it must roll twice and take the less favorable result. For every five caster levels you have, the target must roll twice on an additional d20 roll (to a maximum of five rolls at 20th level). A target who can speak and has at least one free hand and who is aware of the
21:15:35 <diebot> spell and its effects (such as from a Spellcraft check to identify the spell as it is cast) can negate one reroll by spending a move action to utter a brief prayer or good luck charm to appease the spirits of ill fortune.
