00:35:58 <Mekkis> When you worship Zyphus, you venerate the idea that
00:35:58 <Mekkis> random chance governs your life rather than a master
00:35:59 <Mekkis> plan. You believe that those who look to the gods for
00:35:59 <Mekkis> answers are deluding themselves.

01:01:55 <***> Buffer Playback...
01:01:55 <***> Playback Complete.
01:02:42 <Mekkis> Steven, I just played No Plunder No Pay.
01:02:58 <Mekkis> I really don't understand the secondary success condition
01:03:46 <Steven> i dont remember it.
01:05:06 <Mekkis> The entire scenario's about painting the guy as a folk hero, who was undermining Chelish opulence.
01:05:52 <Mekkis> Yet for some reason, the secondary success condition involves sending him back to Cheliax for 'justice'. Even the Chelish faction mission doesn't demand that!
01:08:19 <Steven> oh yeah that scenario.
01:08:57 <Mekkis> Also, for your loremaster. Why not go druid (with a domain)
01:09:49 <Steven> I guess you're supposed to basically kill the ghost ship crew since they are the ones that really want him dead?
01:10:41 <Steven> I dunno, when I played it i was playing Ausk and his pirate crew.
01:11:07 <Steven> so when the ghost ship rolled up on us, and demanded the guy, we were like /toss overboard
01:11:08 <Mekkis> I suppose so. I also blame the GM for not explaining how Waverider got her wayfinder
01:12:28 <Mekkis> Go Elf Druid, with ambitions to connect your kingdom to Kyonin
01:12:59 <Steven> we have a 'tradition' of no divine casters in this AP
01:13:30 <Mekkis> oh?
01:13:33 <Mekkis> why
01:14:02 <Steven> apparently because we are fucking retarded and dont want healing other then a wand.
01:15:31 <Mekkis> oh?
01:15:57 <Avatar> hours?
01:16:18 <Mekkis> play a dragonrider
01:17:32 <Mekkis> play an evil one, and blame everything you do on "because I must please my steed"
01:17:58 <Steven> i already did an evil character, it was mostly annoying.
01:18:37 <Mekkis> not many options if you want arcane loremaster
01:19:12 <Mekkis> bloodrager!'
01:19:31 <Steven> Bladebound Kensai Magus5/assassin2/Shadow Dancer 1... ac 36
01:20:00 <Steven> dealt 1d4+10 damage... got wrecked by that creature i mentioned
01:20:02 <Mekkis> fuck off
01:20:57 <Steven> i was basically a tank.
01:30:00 <Steven> maybe Fighter 5/Brightness seeker 3
01:32:20 <Avatar> !spell blood money
01:32:23 <diebot> Avatar, BLOOD MONEY transmutation ([]) magus 1, sorcerer/wizard 1, witch 1 1 swift action Range: 0 ft. Comp: V, S Duration: Instantaneous Save: SR:Source: RotRL-AE-Appendix
01:32:24 <diebot> The description is too long to send over IRC. View http://nl.ti4200.info/vpsirc/spells/blood_money.html
01:41:30 RastaJew has quit (Quit: )
01:45:28 <Avatar> not an action
01:45:52 <Avatar> Brunius: move? seriously?
02:30:53 <Steven> damn its really quite challenging to get wis to attacks without being a lame ass cleric
02:31:23 <Steven> or being a zen archer.
02:47:45 <s_gmusic> if allowed, there's a weapon property in Curse of the Crimson Throne that gives WIS for to-hit and damage.
02:52:55 <Avatar> all my characters now worship Zyphus
02:53:08 <Avatar> except Cairo, I guess. dumb clerics
02:53:15 <Avatar> oh er, and Judas
02:53:41 <Avatar> Judas, FOR NOW!
02:54:59 <Mekkis> Avatar, so...
02:55:17 <Mekkis> Bard isn't your cup of tea?
02:55:41 <Mekkis> maybe you need to define what you mean by 'rogue'
02:58:52 txtsd ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
03:01:49 <Avatar> maybe you read it
03:02:51 <Mekkis> Avatar, I'm fine with that. I won't even bother checking if he's a legal deity to worship!
03:05:13 <Avatar> sounds like an evil deity
03:05:23 <Avatar> deities that start with a Z are usually evil
03:05:42 <Mekkis> he's a demon lord
03:07:26 <s_gmusic> Couldn't decide on what kind of character to make for society tonight, decided to make a PFS version of my runelords character. :\
03:09:54 <Avatar> lucky guess aye
03:15:00 <Mekkis> that's why I always make non-pfs-legal characters for home campaigns
03:16:13 Brunius has quit (EOF from client)
03:24:31 <Steven> not that either
03:25:25 <Avatar> Mekkis: that was just pathfinder jeopardy
03:25:58 <Avatar> I wasn't asking a question, I was answering it
03:26:14 <Avatar> you said shadow assassin, so I answered what is a class that feels like a rogue but isn't
03:26:32 <Avatar> and wanted to take the spells category for $500 for the next question
03:31:55 <Mekkis> oh. I thought you were offering to give someone $500 in order to make a 'spellcasting rogue' class
03:32:09 <Avatar> haven't you seen jeopardy before
03:32:19 <Mekkis> nope
03:32:35 <Avatar> yeah you get asked "answers" and you have to answer with a question
03:33:02 <Mekkis> oh
03:33:04 <Avatar> and there's a grid of like 6 categories with dollar values below it, the higher the value, the harder the question
03:38:18 <jand> Hello, anyone home?
03:38:23 <Avatar> yep
03:39:17 <Steven> !throw 7d10
03:39:17 <diebot> Steven, 7d10: [7d10=10,10,10,1,10,7,2] 50
03:39:20 <Steven> yup
03:42:48 <jand> Hello
03:43:35 <Avatar> what's going on
03:43:46 <jand> Not all to much :)
03:43:54 <jand> You?
03:43:57 <Avatar> cool
03:44:07 <Avatar> I am going out soon
03:44:31 <Steven> say what?
03:44:38 <Steven> avatar doesnt leave the house.
03:44:48 <jand> Haha, where are you off to?
03:45:07 <Avatar> I don't have a laundry
03:45:54 <Brunius> `op
03:46:18 <Steven> lies! avatar doesnt wear clothes!
03:46:26 <Avatar> mate
03:47:04 <Steven> so what up?
03:47:27 <Steven> i dunno bout you guys but im having chili verde
03:47:42 <Avatar> I had a Salad
03:48:39 <Steven> salad can be good.
03:48:48 <Avatar> salad is always good
03:48:55 <Avatar> you can make friends with salad
03:49:09 <Steven> my body doesnt handle that much leafy vegitables well.
03:49:40 <Steven> like i can have a little bit of spinach but any more then that and my stomach just gets upset.
03:50:34 <Avatar> if I ever get like that my life is basically over
03:50:44 <Avatar> I eat salad usually twice a day
03:50:57 <Steven> yeah, i just dont eat that much.
03:51:04 <Avatar> neither do I
03:51:53 <Steven> the last salad i ate was a pear and goatcheese salad w/ walnuts and spinach
03:52:10 <Steven> It was awesome.
03:52:21 <Steven> i made it.
03:52:27 <jand> Sandwich for me
03:52:39 <jand> Avacado, ham and cherry tomato
03:52:45 <jand> toasted
03:52:45 <Steven> but i only got to have a little bit because otherwise upset stomach.
03:54:32 <Steven> now i kinda want a little salad.
03:55:03 <jand> I could go for a kebab personally
03:55:35 <Avatar> mmm avocado
03:57:12 <Steven> with my chili verde i had some guacamole
03:58:01 <jand> Now I really want to go and get a kebab, but I have had far to many of them recently
04:08:31 <Avatar> Steven
04:08:50 <Steven> yo
04:08:54 <Avatar> do you know how jeopardy works
04:09:05 <Steven> the word?
04:09:15 <Avatar> the game!
04:09:25 <Avatar> jeopardy the game show
04:09:33 <Steven> i havent watched in a few years.
04:09:41 <Steven> but yeah
04:09:47 <Avatar> yeah but if I asked you how do you play jeopardy, would you know
04:10:06 <Steven> What is "Yes."
04:10:13 <Avatar> correct
04:45:28 <Steven> decided to just go with ranger/lantern bearer
04:47:06 <Steven> asked the GM if he would allow me to use focused shot and vital strike or if i would have to fire a bunch of arrows.
04:47:43 <Steven> i dislike firing 5+arrows a round... gets dumb as fuck.
05:17:58 <s_gmusic> that's why I didn't go with a ranged character in my friends runelords game.
05:18:28 <s_gmusic> it was a " do you WANT me to be retarded with this character?" moment.
05:18:55 <Steven> thats why im hoping he lets me do a focused shot and vital strike on one arrow.
05:21:12 <s_gmusic> he did, however, let me make a TWF guy. Ranger 2/Samurai (Ronin) X. wears light armor for stealth, but no sneak attack.
05:25:12 <Steven> its the difference between 2d8+13 in one shot or 5d8+45 damage in a full attack.
05:36:43 <Steven> !throw 7d6
05:36:43 <diebot> Steven, 7d6: [7d6=4,5,6,2,6,4,4] 31
05:54:02 <s_gmusic> kek
06:38:01 <Steven> bolt ace have problems.
06:38:09 <Avatar> does it?
06:38:10 <Steven> im waiting for them to fix em.
06:38:14 <Avatar> what problems
06:38:24 <Avatar> I was considering making one
06:38:53 <Steven> well... they still get a gun for one.
06:39:48 <Avatar> bonus
06:39:49 <Avatar> !
06:40:18 <Steven> yeah, but its dumb.
06:40:34 <Steven> in the class description they dont like guns... but still get one?
06:40:35 <Avatar> let's pretend it's not dumb
06:40:39 <Avatar> what else is wrong with them
06:40:59 <Steven> go to paizo, type in bolt ace.
06:41:20 Avatar has quit (Quit: Spend social security on games.)
06:41:22 <Steven> alright, lets crowd source this shit!
06:42:25 <Steven> So... my character in kingmaker died... shit happened... and everyone else in the party was down and i could only do 1d4 points of damage to a creature each round where he was smacking me for 2d6+11+grab+bleed+poison shit.
06:42:40 <Steven> so.... fun it was not.
06:43:20 <Steven> suppose i could build my hawkeye character as backup.
06:43:52 <Steven> the GM wouldnt let our friend who had died about 2 hours previously jump back in... but hey my sacrifice let the king get away.
06:44:15 <Steven> you could say im slightly bitter but whatever.
06:44:53 <Avatar> hmmm ok
06:45:02 <Steven> Urban barbarian w/ a bow he cant really use unless he is raging.
06:45:10 <Avatar> I wouldn't mind changing my investigator into a bolt ace
06:45:18 <Avatar> my going-nowhere investigator
06:45:27 <Steven> Now i'm level 8, 33k gold
06:45:33 <Steven> I'm thinkin bout making a Loremaster.
06:45:39 <Avatar> I like the concept of the investigator, but it seems a bit hopeless in a campaign like PFS
06:46:04 <Steven> yeah bolt ace is still a solid class, i just dont want to play one right now until they either fix it or say its not going to be tinkered with.
06:46:18 <Steven> the thing is what to use for the base class.
06:46:38 <Avatar> has anyone on the design team said anything about it
06:46:56 <Steven> i was considering a brown fur arcanist... hand out Enlarge persons with +4str on em.
06:47:55 <Steven> problem is i dont really like the arcanist because everything sucks compared to immediate action counterspell and i dont want to take it.
06:48:01 <Steven> but then i feel like im not playing the class right.
06:48:11 <Steven> and before you ask avatar, no i wont play a rogue.
06:49:33 <Steven> suppose i could do a bard.
06:50:32 <Steven> nope.
06:52:14 <Steven> alrighty... time to pick a race.
06:52:38 <Steven> outiders are a no no.
06:52:56 <Steven> but pretty much everything else is alright
06:53:24 <Avatar> that's easy, human
06:53:58 <Steven> no thanks...
06:54:01 <Avatar> the idea of playing a human already makes me want to roll up a character for no good reason
06:54:05 <Steven> I'll be a slave then.
06:54:21 <Avatar> well this is the first you've mentioned of humans being slaves in your campaign

06:54:46 ChanOP gives channel operator status to Avatar
06:54:59 <Steven> well... thats just how the necromancer and undead cleric are.
06:55:21 <Steven> they 'bought' the half orc
06:55:28 <Steven> with their starting gold.
06:55:53 <spider21b> really?
06:55:58 <spider21b> thats odd
06:56:13 <Steven> yeah.
06:56:42 <spider21b> what do they use him for?
06:56:51 <Steven> meat shield
06:57:12 <Steven> 1st level he has like 16 hit points and a 20ac
06:58:32 <Steven> my current character is a dhampir
06:59:46 <Steven> mid combat i've stopped fighting to pick up an unconcious NPC and drink their blood. Mechanically i switch over to Worm Aspect and gain fasthealing 1
07:00:14 <Steven> the character is just a solid all around character
07:00:40 <Steven> decent AC, decent Hp, decent saves, has ranged and melee capabilities.
07:01:01 <Steven> so, if it dies, well you gotta come back with something better because it obviously wasnt cuttin the mustard
07:08:37 <spider21b> random question since i have a familar what can i do with it since i dont have spells?
07:10:19 <Steven> im buyin a damascus steel kukri for christmas.
07:23:26 <Mekkis> oh. who's the victim?
07:40:46 <Steven> my wallet
07:58:50 <Mekkis> Steven, shadow assassin
07:59:57 <Mekkis> fair enough
08:00:14 <Mekkis> I'm really tempted to buy a pair of flaming swords for christmas
08:00:26 <Avatar> what is a class that feels like a rogue but isn't
08:00:37 <Avatar> I'll take spells for $500

16:35:53 <Avatar> pathfinder jeopardy
16:37:40 <s_gmusic> someone should get on that.
16:43:06 <Avatar> no
16:43:19 <Avatar> I like the title though
16:43:24 <Avatar> reminds me of Green Market
16:48:19 <Mekkis> it'ss a bitch to run

17:24:32 <diebot> Mekkis, EMPOWER SPELL [Metamagic] You can increase the power of your spells, causing them to deal more damage.
17:24:32 <diebot> Benefit: All variable, numeric effects of an empowered spell are increased by half, including bonuses to those dice rolls. Saving throws and opposed rolls are not affected, nor are spells without random variables. An empowered spell uses up a spell slot two levels higher than the spell’s actual level. Source: Core

19:15:18 <Avatar> and wanted to take the spells category for $500 for the next question
19:20:40 <Mekkis> oh. I thought you were offering to give someone $500 in order to make a 'spellcasting rogue' class
19:20:54 <Avatar> haven't you seen jeopardy before
19:21:04 <Mekkis> nope
19:21:20 <Avatar> yeah you get asked "answers" and you have to answer with a question
19:21:43 Steve has quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
19:21:47 <Mekkis> oh
19:21:52 <Avatar> and there's a grid of like 6 categories with dollar values below it, the higher the value, the harder the question

21:15:52 <Steven> hey avatar.... why you need uplifting music
21:20:16 <Avatar> reworking one of my old CDs
21:20:26 <Avatar> I don't actually need "uplifting" music, that's just what it sounded like
21:20:42 <Steven> ah...
21:20:43 <Avatar> the theme is truth, which is actually really difficult to find in music
21:21:31 <Steven> yeah... i mostly just listen to rock and theres not much uplifting/inspirational rock music..
21:21:51 <Avatar> yeah good that's not what I really want anyway
21:22:02 <Steven> unless you wanna listen to christian rock...
21:22:03 <Avatar> don't want uplifting/inspirational
21:22:09 <Avatar> I want music that is REAL
21:22:14 <Steven> clutch
21:22:22 <Avatar> what's clutch
21:25:36 <Steven> rock band
21:29:34 <Steven> I found out about them bout 7 years back. Really havent listened to much else since.
21:31:49 <Avatar> give me a specific title
21:32:03 <Steven> Electric Worry
21:33:07 <Steven> 50,000 Unstoppable Watts
21:33:10 <Steven> Subtle Hustle
21:33:14 <Steven> The elephant riders
21:33:18 <Steven> Ghost
21:33:25 <Steven> Drink to the Dead
21:33:26 <Avatar> do all of those fit the theme
21:33:31 <Steven> Burning Beard
21:33:36 <Steven> no... they are all just rock.
21:33:41 <Steven> i dont know what your theme is.
21:33:46 <Avatar> yes you do
21:34:58 <Steven> rock and "appreciation of life, or self discovery" dont really align very often.
21:35:23 <Avatar> what about harsh reality
21:35:45 <Steven> Clutch- Eulogy for a Ghost
21:36:28 <Steven> it is a bad ass song
21:36:32 <Avatar> is it just 'ghost' ?
21:36:58 <Steven> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yefLbzUh41o
21:37:05 <diebot> Steven, Clutch - Eulogy for a Ghost
21:37:20 <Avatar> spotify just has it as ghost
21:37:25 <Avatar> it'll do, cheers
21:37:48 <Steven> might have been the orginal title
21:37:57 <Steven> i know they did a second release.
21:38:30 <Steven> I know someone did a music video for it.
21:39:22 <Steven> and they used The Assassination of Jesse James scenes for it... It lines up so damn well.
21:45:23 <Steven> bout 2 years back they had a concert for clutch up here. As soon as they announced the schedule i called to get tickets and they were sold out.
21:46:28 <Steven> so we went up to place and when we got there was about 400 other people standing in line.... we didnt get in.
21:49:56 <Steven> anyways...
21:49:59 <Steven> thats my favorite band.
21:51:49 <Steven> in other news trying to convince someone in my homegroup campaign to take the 'teamwork' feat Friendly Fire
21:51:51 <Steven> http://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/betrayal-feats/friendly-fire-betrayal-teamwork
21:52:15 <Steven> so i can shoot at enemies with cover for a -2 that gets him an AoO.
21:54:27 <Steven> 3 worshipers of Urgathoa, 1 Chattle(a PC who was purchased), and my character who Worships the horseman of plagues.
21:55:26 <Steven> today we ran into a cleric of norgagabor or however its spelled
21:56:12 <Steven> his listed spells were sound burst, cause fear, inflict light wounds and he channeled negative energy.
21:56:41 <Steven> so I am a dhampir and the other front liner is a dhampir.
21:57:24 <Steven> reached out and touched me rolled max damage and i just smiled and offered to let them surrender.
21:57:59 <Steven> they refused... i grappled on my turn and sucked them dry and then ate them for dinner.
21:58:59 <Steven> the other dhampir and I discussed who got what parts and the minion that surrendered after i killed her was like... I will serve you forever just dont let them do that to me.

23:18:20 <Steven> !throw 5d10+2d12
23:18:20 <diebot> Steven, 5d10+2d12: [5d10=4,9,1,1,4; 2d12=6,2] 27
23:18:31 <Mekkis> what's this? HP?
23:18:51 <Steven> yup.
23:19:02 <Steven> does your hp thing do multiple size hit dice?
23:19:07 <Mekkis> yes
23:19:19 <Mekkis> the first one specified is maximised
23:19:24 <Mekkis> ?!hp
23:19:24 <diebot> Mekkis, !hp Calculates PFS HP for the given HD. Use m to describe bonus HP for each HD. For example, a level 2 wizard with 14 con would use !hp 2d6m2. The same wizard with Toughness would use !hp 2d6m2+3.A wizard 6 / rogue 1 / master spy 1 / arcane trickster 3, with favoured class of wizard and rogue going to HP would use !hp
23:19:25 <diebot> 6d6m3+1d8m3+1d8m2+3d6m2.
23:19:28 <Steven> oh cool
23:19:58 <Steven> !hp 6d10m2+2d12m2
23:19:59 <diebot> Steven, 70
23:20:18 <Steven> seems like i rolled much better on that one.
23:20:33 <Mekkis> !hp 1d12m3+1d8m3
23:20:34 <diebot> Mekkis, 23
23:20:40 <Mekkis> !hp 1d8m3+1d12m3
23:20:41 <diebot> Mekkis, 21
23:20:50 <Steven> i dont watch it.
23:22:30 <Steven> for me it only really matters for retraining.
23:23:13 <Steven> 7200g to retrain to max hit points.
23:24:40 <Mekkis> I'm surprised that any GM would allow retraining rules outside of PFS
23:25:33 <Steven> i think the only reason he allows it is because we have no healer. We have a sorc who uses a CLW wand.
23:26:21 <Steven> and the AP loves giving x4 weapons.
23:26:34 <Steven> or having creatures have x3 natural attacks.
23:26:43 <Brunius> Mekkis reads some very odd forums
23:27:11 <Steven> so... 70 hit points is nice... but we get crit for 50-75 damage fairly regularly.
23:27:30 <Steven> well i didnt... but now i will be.
23:27:35 <Steven> if they get close to me.
23:27:53 <Steven> I'm rockin ranged now
23:28:28 <Mekkis> So your group has taken on an eastern flavour
23:28:29 <Mekkis> ?
23:28:51 <Steven> we just call it hardmoe.
23:28:54 <Steven> hardmode
23:29:34 <Steven> i would totally build a healer and just stop the nailbiting trash encounters but then people would surely complain.
23:31:37 <Steven> so i just built a 1 shot per round Fighter/Urban Barbarian/Lantern Bearer
23:32:58 <Mekkis> fair enough
23:33:43 <Steven> gonna furious finish vital strike focused shot
23:34:11 <Steven> GM approved that rather then having me do the rapid shot/many shot let me count dice for 5 minutes.
23:34:45 <Steven> because i dont want to do that...
23:35:07 <Steven> so much easier to just make one shot, add 2 dice together +14
23:37:56 <Mekkis> Brunius, indeed
23:38:06 <Mekkis> Brunius, what are your plans for the next three months?
23:38:14 <Brunius> bum around at home
23:38:24 <Brunius> actually, I think mother wants to move at that point
23:41:09 <Mekkis> Going to get the good old licence?
23:41:26 <Brunius> Not enough hours. I've been slacking recently
23:41:39 <Mekkis> how many more hours do you need?
23:41:46 <Brunius> about 40
23:42:12 <Mekkis> you can put that in in three months, right?
23:42:29 <Mekkis> get about 32 hours in.
23:42:40 <Steven> have 1 feat slot open.
23:42:52 <Mekkis> Then come to Canberra, buy my car, and drive me down to Arcanacon :P
23:44:06 <Mekkis> at 7th level, should I get Greater Grapple or Snapping Turtle Clutch?
23:45:44 <Steven> both are pretty awesome.
23:47:23 <Steven> hmmmm improved critical?
23:48:01 <Steven> crittin with a bow on a 19-20 seems like a good thing.
23:55:58 <Steven> also gotta get a rage power thats good with a ranged build
