24:29 <Mekkis> !feat major spell expertise
24:30 <diebot> Mekkis, MAJOR SPELL EXPERTISE []Prereq:  Minor Spell Expertise, ability to cast 9th-level spells.  You can cast a single low-level spell as a spell-like ability.
24:30 <diebot> Benefit:  Choose one spell that you know of 5th level or lower. You may cast that spell twice per day as a spell-like ability. The caster level for this spell-like ability is equal to your caster level in the class from whose spell list the spell is taken. The spell-like ability's save DC is Charisma-based. If the spell has an expensive focus or
24:30 <diebot> material component, it may not be chosen for this feat. You cannot apply metamagic feats to this spell.
24:30 <diebot> Special:  You can gain this feat multiple times. Its effects do not stack. Each time you take the feat, it applies to a new spell. Source: APG
30:56 <Mekkis> !feat athiest abjurations
30:57 <diebot> Mekkis, ABUNDANT REVELATIONS []Prereq:  Mystery class feature.  You can plumb the depths of your mystery to use your revelations more often.
30:58 <diebot> Benefit:  Choose one of your revelations that has a number of uses per day. You gain 1 additional use per day of that revelation.
30:58 <diebot> Special:  You can gain this feat multiple times. Its effects do not stack. Each time you take the feat, it applies to a new revelation. Source: UM
34:08 <Mekkis> !spell ill omen
34:12 <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
34:13 <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
34:13 <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.
55:08 <Avatar> pretty sure only steven and maybe brunius can GM in both your timeslots
55:27 <Avatar> if you want me to GM for one of you, I'm still 2 and a half weeks away from a free weekend
21:35 <Steven> yo.
30:04 <Avatar> do you work during the week
36:51 <Steven> I'm 'always' working
37:35 <Steven> I am a caregiver so i have my regular scheduled hours and then whenever they need help they call me and i come over.
37:52 <tashes__> are you better yet steven
38:06 <Steven> no, but i feel better today then i did yesterday.
38:18 <Steven> not by much mind you, but still.
38:43 <tashes> have you eaten a vegetable?
39:38 <Steven> no... i ate more then one.
40:14 <tashes> well then i'm all out of ideas
40:24 <tashes> i'm glad you're feeling better
40:35 <Steven> its just a sinus thing, will blow over in a day or two more.
40:51 <Steven> if it doesnt i'll go to my doctor and get some antibiotics.

43:25 <tashes> neti pot is amazing
44:19 RastaJew has quit (Quit: )
50:22 <Steven> nah.. im not down with putting too much water in my nose
56:00 <tashes> saline nasal spray helps too, or a medicated one
57:05 <Avatar> that sounds a bit like you don't ever do pathfinder anymore steven
58:22 <Steven> I organize 2 gamedays a week, and every other week i go over to moscow and put in an appearance at the gameday there.
58:47 <Steven> so 10 days a month I'm doing something related to PFS.
59:00 <Steven> I think thats plenty.
01:29 <Avatar> how can you do that and caregiving
03:00 <tashes> at least here, carers are entitled to 68 days per year leave
03:33 <Steven> before i go out to play i do a bunch of stuff.
05:34 <Steven> bout the 3 hours before i leave to go down to the shop, I cook dinner, do whatever laundry is around, clean the kitchen, go to the grocery store, chop wood and put it in the house, take out their dogs and feed them.
39:50 <Steven> hey people.
40:01 <Steven> i slept... then i woke up ravenously hungry.
02:57 <s_gmusic> hm... playing around in herolab and have statted up a Ftr 4/Samurai 4. Not sure where to go from there.
21:34 <Avatar> gunslinger
25:54 Goya has quit (Quit: WeeChat 0.4.2)
31:02 <Mekkis> !capacity 12
31:03 <diebot> Mekkis, 43 if medium, 32.25 if small.
02:53 <s_gmusic> guns not allowed in the game.
03:12 <s_gmusic> can't decide if I want to focus more on fighter or more on samurai, or try a prestige class
08:49 <Brunius> Mekkis: I've just realised I've already booked something for this friday
08:52 <Brunius> sorry about that, chief
24:30 <s_gmusic> Brunius, any suggestiosn for above?
24:45 <Brunius> yes

53:44 <Magus> Allo'
53:48 <Steven> methinks its nap time!
56:19 <Magus> Anyone around today?
56:53 <Steven> shhhhh
57:00 <Steven> they react to typing.
57:18 <Magus> Well, I still want to play xD
57:32 <s_gmusic> hey steven
57:39 <Steven> ah crap....
57:43 <s_gmusic> :P
57:46 <Magus> Lol
58:05 <s_gmusic> 28 AC at lvl 8. seems low.
58:51 <Steven> thats pretty pathetic AC conidering you're wearing armor
59:15 <Magus> Real men just always go naked
00:37 <s_gmusic> +1 Mithral full plate (+10), +2 heavy shield (+4), amulet of natural armor +1, +2 Dex mod, +1 Dodge (feat). AC 28/Flat-footed 25/Touch 15
01:29 <Steven> see... armor.
01:56 <Steven> anyways...
02:01 <s_gmusic> what's "typical" AC about lvl 8?
02:07 <Magus> So do you feel better today? xD
02:16 <Steven> for someone specializing in high AC?
02:35 <Steven> bout 30
02:52 <Steven> you're not far off really, just pick up a ring of prot
03:31 <s_gmusic> fair enough
04:21 <Brunius> wonder what Bairaq's AC is
04:49 <s_gmusic> hm... that's 8k. don't really have the funds atm. going to talk to the GM of my Runelords game about a potential rebuild.
06:00 <Steven> go do whatcha gotta do.
07:41 <s_gmusic> we're about to start book 3. character started out as Ranger 2/Samurai X for TWF things, but it's becoming clear that's not what the party needs. want to change to a bit more of a tank-like character, so looking at Samurai 1/Fighter X, that way I don't have to lose a few of my weapons.
08:01 <Lintor> yep
08:06 <Magus> Then agreed.
08:43 <Lintor> and "totally"
09:42 <Steven> should be fun.
09:56 <Magus> Gnarly, bodacious, radical
10:19 <Lintor> "Radiculus"
10:47 <Magus> That... Hurts me to read.
11:56 <Magus> But perfect for the character
13:38 <Lintor> now i just have to work out his faction and nationality 
16:06 <Magus> Oh. Paizo customer service said they couldn't help 
16:15 <s_gmusic> what's up?
16:52 <Magus> So, I had played two sessions and had a pathfinder guy from years ago
17:09 <Magus> But disappeared from my paizo account
17:38 <Magus> I have the sheets still, but gone from my account
18:19 <s_gmusic> "sheets" being your Chronicles from the sessions you played or your character sheet?
19:21 <Magus> Both
20:17 <Steven> libertys edge? freedom to surf?
20:54 <s_gmusic> then you're fine.
21:05 <s_gmusic> the most important thing is to have your chronicles
21:13 <Magus> lol
21:22 <Magus> Nationality is a thing?
21:47 <Magus> Yea, but not in my account which doesn't help
21:57 <Magus> especially since I plan on playing online mostly now
22:06 <Steven> yeah, you can be an andoran that joins the Silver Crusade
22:24 <Magus> Do I have to pick a nationality?
22:32 <s_gmusic> if you feel you must have it listed online, try to find the GM to ran the games and talk to them, if possible.
23:04 <Magus> Noted. I don't know if it is, but I'll try
23:49 <Avatar> ethnicity
23:51 <Avatar> and no you don't
24:01 <Avatar> you get a free language if you do though
24:36 <s_gmusic> brb, gotta restart my comp
26:06 <Magus> Noted. I'll look at it then
26:56 <Magus> Steven find me gammmmes
26:59 <Magus> gamessss
27:00 <Avatar> you do need to own the inner sea world guide to claim the language though
27:02 <Magus> ggggames
27:36 <Avatar> you can roleplay the ethnicity without it
27:47 <Steven> im goin to sleep in 15 minutes.
28:01 <Steven> well 15 minutes and a 10 minute walk back to my house.
28:03 <Avatar> like you want to play a kellid barbarian, you can say he's kellid and actually be kellid, and just not have the free language if you don't own the book
28:13 <Steven> hell truth be told its more like 2 minutes.
28:14 <Magus> Yea, aren't you just 2-3 hours behind me?
28:21 <Magus> Why are you awake again
28:53 <Magus> I have the Inner Sea Primer
28:55 <Magus> is that it?
29:24 <Magus> Yes, it seems it is
29:35 <Avatar> inner sea world guide
29:44 <Avatar> maybe the primer has it as well, I can't remember
30:01 <Steven> hours.
30:21 <Avatar> if you point me to a page, I'll double check for you
30:21 <Magus> Oh
30:36 <Magus> A campaign setting book
30:40 <Magus> I have that too
30:50 <Magus> I also have Inner Sea Magic
31:13 <Magus> Those are my 3 inner sea ones xD
32:03 <Magus> Anyway. So you said you run games whenever people are available and want to Avatar, but how often to sessions actually happen, roughly?
32:21 <Avatar> I told you what usually happens man
32:32 <Magus> *nods*
32:43 <Avatar> you sound like you want a different answer
33:05 <Magus> Yea. Just mildly demoralized looking at all of these cancelled sessions and things listed everywhere
33:31 <Magus> It's also 630 in the morning so I apologize for the repitition
33:47 <Avatar> mate don't apologise to me
33:56 <Avatar> I just don't want to see you make yourself a glutton for punishment
34:01 <Avatar> you seem like a nice guy
34:11 <Avatar> what cancelled sessions are you seeing
35:10 <Magus> Like, 2 of the first 3 most recent in the google group
35:17 <Magus> and a lot more as you scroll through
35:27 <Magus> and a *ton* more if you look at any groups Warhorn
35:30 <Avatar> did they say why they cancelled
36:19 <Magus> One due to sickness, the rest say RSVPs or something similar
36:29 <Magus> lack of signatures, lack of players
36:32 <s_gmusic> kback.
36:37 <Avatar> that seems strange
36:43 <Avatar> because games in your timezone usually overfill
36:47 <Avatar> they don't get a lack of players
37:07 <Magus> Oh? Maybe just the holiday yesterday messed with it
39:10 <Avatar> the few games that are cancelled I don't actually recognise
39:21 <Avatar> except we be goblins, which he tried to schedule less than a day in advance
40:28 <Avatar> and it doesn't help that most of those games like to put down their timezone as "EST" or "CST" without putting GMT or UTC
42:43 <Mekkis> EST is UTC+10, right?
42:44 <Mekkis> ?EST
42:49 <Mekkis> ?CST
43:00 <Mekkis> ?!define
43:01 <diebot> Mekkis, Syntax: !define [global] [add] <key>: <definition>. Eg. !define global diebot: A bot written by Mekkis.Using Add concatenates the arguments to the definition, otherwise it overwrites them.
43:41 <Magus> EST is UTC-5
44:42 <Mekkis> !define global EST: Either American Eastern Standard time (UTC-5), or Australian Eastern Standard time (UTC+10). Consider being clearer and using UTC offsets.
44:43 <diebot> Mekkis, Either American Eastern Standard time (UTC-5), or Australian Eastern Standard time (UTC+10). Consider being clearer and using UTC offsets. defined as ??EST
44:52 <Mekkis> :)
45:23 <Steven> back!
45:33 <Magus> Hey, you didn't die
45:35 <Steven> i ate some food
45:41 <Steven> i feel much better
45:54 <Magus> Glad to hear it
45:56 <Steven> that should go away in about half an hour at which time i'll be goin to bed.
47:11 <Lintor> so mekkis how bout that WotW
47:22 <Avatar> so lintor how about accepting a slot
47:31 <Mekkis> How about Sunday 22nd?

48:36 <diebot> Benefit:  You are considered to be flanking an opponent if at least two of your allies are threatening that opponent, regardless of your actual positioning. 
48:36 <diebot> Normal:  You must be positioned opposite an ally to flank an opponent. Source: APG

37:34 <tashes_> g'day
44:14 <Magus> So on the PFS google group someone posted about a new people group running on Sundays
44:27 <Magus> but you cant do weekends right?
48:03 <tashes_> not really.. my partner works 7-7 so i don't see him much other than weekends
48:16 <tashes_> i can do sunday night
48:45 <Magus> fair enough. I'll keep looking.
49:00 <Magus> Make him play too on the weekends :p problem solved

53:34 <tashes_> 5pm sunday gmt-8 is 11am monday for me 
53:47 <Magus> -.- boo
53:52 <tashes_> taht works for me
53:57 <Magus> oh
53:59 <Magus> cool
54:06 <Magus> Yea, weekday
54:17 <Magus> sign up on the wait xD
54:53 <tashes_> could @steven1 GM something for us in that sort of time slot, maybe? 
55:02 <tashes_> 7 signed up and 1 waiting sounds like chaos to me
56:28 <Magus> well, me and my friend are two of them and several of the others are expected to no show. It'd be worth signing up just im case, but I'd like one here too
57:25 <Magus> here is his actual post... https://groups.google.com/forum/m/?fromgroups#!topic/pathfinder-society-online-collective/ReqWGvlTpTI
01:52 <tashes_> ok
03:02 <Magus> So I saw today PFS has a Magus base class, so I feel compelled to make one. 
04:05 <tashes_> of course
04:16 <tashes_> i'm tossing up whether to make an angry dwarf or a velociraptor druid
05:30 <Mekkis> !spell misdirection
05:36 <diebot> Mekkis, MISDIRECTION illusion (glamer[]) bard 2, sorcerer/wizard 2, summoner 2 1 standard action Range: close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels) one creature or object, up to a 10-ft. cube in size Comp: V, S Duration: 1 hour/level Save: none or Will negates; see text SR:noSource: PFRPG Core
05:36 <diebot> By means of this spell, you misdirect the information from divination spells that reveal auras (detect evil, detect magic, discern lies, and the like). On casting the spell, you choose another object within range. For the duration of the spell, the subject of misdirection is detected as if it were the other object. Neither the subject nor the other
05:36 <diebot> object gets a saving throw against this effect. Detection spells provide information based on the second object rather than on the actual target of the detection unless the caster of the detection succeeds on a Will save. For instance, you could make yourself detect as a tree if one were within range at casting: not evil, not lying, not magical,
05:36 <diebot> neutral in alignment, and so forth. This spell does not affect other types of divination magic (augury, detect thoughts, clairaudience/clairvoyance, and the like).
09:11 <Magus> xD both can be fun. Why not an angry dwarf velociraptor druid?

14:56 <Magus> monday to friday
15:41 <tashes> anyway fork and spork were orc barbarians with alllll the teamwork feats and not much smarts between them. A friend and i played them with interchangeable character sheets and whenever someoen would call one of us by either name they'd be wrong
16:06 <tashes> do you sleep? :s

01:15 <Avatar> what?
02:02 <Tashes> lady up the road is in brisbane so i get to bring her doggies in the house
23:38 <Avatar> E:oP
23:54 <Avatar> one of the players said something about importing a character into roll20, instead of having to cut and paste macros
23:58 <Avatar> I just have to enable some option
24:58 <Avatar> I'm going to need a token from you mekkis
25:19 <Avatar> you can send me several if you're not sure

46:20 <Magus> Hello again
47:15 <Tashes> did anything end up getting decided about when we'll play?
48:02 <Magus> Not yet it seems
59:51 <Avatar> I assume you all heard about the reversal on the SLA/prestige class FAQ
04:28 <Brunius_> nope
04:53 <Avatar> yeah you can't do it anymore, although if you did it in PFS before, you're allowed to keep your character and keep getting levels in it as if it hadn't been reversed
04:59 <Avatar> great for aasimars and tieflings
06:58 <Brunius_> I don't see why they allowed it in the first place
10:02 <Avatar> yeah it didn't make much sense
10:47 Steven1 ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
10:48 Steven1 is now known as steven
10:49 <Avatar> I know SKR was keen on abilities counting for more than they usually would
11:47 <Avatar> like if you had something that resembled a feat as a class feature, that'd count as a pre-req for another feat
11:49 <Avatar> or something like that
12:50 steven is now known as Steven1
15:09 Steven1 is now known as steven
17:19 <Mekkis> Avatar, I'm glad that my post did seem to steer the discussion in a direction I wanted :)
17:41 <Avatar> I'm surprised they ignored my comment that said "retraining is in the pfs guide"
17:48 <Avatar> well, surprised is the wrong word
17:53 <Avatar> dismayed
17:58 <Mekkis> I want to reiterate it, to be honest
17:59 <Avatar> I'm not surprised 
18:09 <Mekkis> I might post again, quoting you
18:28 <Avatar> john said that retraining is too jarring
18:40 <Avatar> I think he meant that in terms of not allowing grandfathering
18:51 <Avatar> but there's no reason they can't allow both, and they're ignoring that for some reason
19:14 <Avatar> I mentioned in another thread that they could use the honour system for allowing people who hadn't gotten the prestige level yet to retrain for free
19:39 <Avatar> PFS is quite selective about when the honour system should be used
19:56 <Mekkis> But the whole "Prestige classes like Mystic Theurge were horribly underpowered until this SLA rule gave them early entry and made them usable." claim highlights the reason why the SLA rule should exist.
20:05 <Mekkis> seems dumb to me
20:26 <Mekkis> it highlights that the entry requirements are too arduous
22:15 <steven> so how bout them dodgers?
24:55 <Mekkis> dodgers?
28:31 <steven> baseball team.
29:02 <steven> got to play core today.
29:08 <Mekkis> I ran core last night
29:21 <Mekkis> we were thinking of doing Emerald Spire core.
29:31 <steven> sounds challenging.
29:51 <Mekkis> Decided against it, in favour of doing Emerald Spire non-pfs, and just reporting it as PFS :)
30:40 <Mekkis> either that, or doing it PFS, but restricting who's allowed to play with what.
31:02 <steven> I'm currently writing up the character entries for the people i adventured with.
31:26 <Mekkis> Ran First Steps core last night. Bloody Gang Up feat
32:30 <steven> its a nasty feat.
32:44 <Mekkis> Ledford got off a crit
32:46 <Mekkis> :(
33:13 <steven> did you kill somebody or just fudge it to negative hp.
34:13 <Mekkis> I allowed them until the end of the round to put them above -con
34:40 <steven> very generous
35:28 <steven> i dont know why they gave him a x3 weapon, he could have just had a x2 and been not so crit=death
42:41 <Avatar> Mekkis: https://app.roll20.net/join/626110/bhDA6w for when you're ready to join
42:47 <Avatar> don't forget I need your token
42:57 <steven> whatcha guys doin?
43:10 <Avatar> prepping a game for saturday morning
43:14 <Mekkis> okay
43:14 <Avatar> or friday night your time
43:25 <steven> cool, hope you guys have fun.
44:03 <Avatar> mate it's going to be biblical
44:55 <Mekkis> Avatar, will there be a problem if I'll be afk between 0945 and probably 1000 on that day: there's an apartment I need to check out; see if it's as good as advertised (and good for me to throw $380k at)
45:12 <steven> long and full of rules?
53:35 <Mekkis> hey Brunius_!
53:41 <Mekkis> Brunius_, you free on Sunday?>

54:19 <Brunius> Any time after 6 is fine
56:04 <Mekkis> Avatar, please schedule WotW for Sunday 22nd, 1900 AEDT
56:58 <Avatar> wow
57:27 Avatar has changed the topic to: PFS: Sat 21st 9am (7-11,Avatar) || WotW: Sun 22nd 7pm || 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
57:54 <Avatar> is it ulzef, brunius, kapow?
00:41 <Mekkis> yep
01:00 <Avatar> 7pm sunday seems a strange timeslot
01:15 <Avatar> how long is the session? 4 hours?
01:20 <Mekkis> call it 3
02:16 <Avatar> what part are you up to
03:24 <Avatar> too late, it's going up
05:03 <Mekkis> nearly finished part 2
05:54 <Avatar> as in this is the last session for part 2?
06:01 <Mekkis> maybe
06:06 <Mekkis> might be second last
19:56 <Avatar> I just noticed you asking me about being away between 945 and 10
20:08 <Avatar> if you have to go, be quick, you know what that's like for the rest of the table
20:48 <Avatar> this is tier 10-11, you could be dead by the time you get back
22:00 <Avatar> the americans are likely already staying up as late as they can for the game
25:03 Gamera ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
44:23 <steven> so 3 mythic tiers to build onto my core only cleric.
02:25 <Avatar> lol.
03:38 <Brunius> Mekkis it'll have to be the friday for me
03:49 <steven> I'd considered just taking the pregen mythic sheet they give you.
04:01 <steven> but it lacks the only ability i actually want.
05:09 <steven> Display of Intelligence +20 competance bonus as a free action on any int based skill.
05:27 <steven> oh its circumstance not comp... even better lol.
29:54 Magus ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
30:29 <Magus> Hey, is anyone around? I just tried PCgen, and putting the files on Google Drive, and wanted to see if they work
30:39 <Magus> And even better, get some advice if someone is up for it xD
31:25 <steven> hey
31:31 <steven> im currently not around
31:41 <Magus> I assumed you died. So that happens
31:45 <Magus> https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BztW3gycECX8RFJlbTZFYU8yQ0k/view?usp=sharing
32:20 <steven> decent assumption
32:32 <Magus> Most of my assumptions are.
33:09 <steven> i dont have pcgen
33:24 <Magus> I found my problem
33:25 <steven> I do all the stuff by hand.
33:30 <Magus> I see how to export as a pdf

37:17 <Magus> Oh oh oh
37:23 <Magus> I wanted to ask how PFS does familiars
37:36 <Magus> Since I may obviously be replacing improved familiar xD
44:04 <steven> there is no reason to have improved familiar at level 1.
44:44 <Magus> I feel that way about most metamagic feats. Daze spell and the like
44:56 <Magus> The alternative was toughness, but it is just a flat 3 hp for PFS right?
45:11 <steven> because you dont qualify for any of the improved familiars.  minimum caster level is 3 to get one.
45:57 <Magus> How do I acquire any in the game?
46:18 <steven> once you get to required level to have the improved familiar you take the feat and boom you got one.
47:00 <steven> I'd suggest spell focus, toughness, or a utility feat.
47:36 <Magus> Spell focus instead of skill focus concentration?
47:57 <Magus> My traits already cover that. Maybe i will go back to spell focus charm
48:01 <steven> there is no skill focus concentration.
48:20 <steven> concentration is no longer a skill, its your Caster level+casting stat.
48:57 <steven> so your concentration is +5 at first level
49:06 <steven> at second level it will be +6
49:17 <Magus> I see. Sorry.
49:20 <steven> so long as you keep taking levels in sorcerer.
49:23 <Magus> What about fast learner?
50:05 <steven> fast learner is alright
50:17 <steven> toughness is a better choice for first level.
51:13 <Magus> But what about over time? After three levels doesn't FL just win?
52:00 <steven> not particularly, toughness is 3hp at 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and then when you get to 4th+ its an addition hp per level.
52:27 <steven> so at 12th level toughness has netted a total of 12hp.
53:08 <Magus> Oh, I thought it was a flat 3, and nothin more
53:38 <steven> its a decent feat if you're low on HP.
54:30 <Magus> Aye. I'm tempted to take persuasive since I took the initiative trait, improved init seems overkill early
55:23 <steven> high initiative is very useful
55:42 <steven> you get to drop a spell before others get to go.
56:17 <Magus> Of course. hence the initial thinking
56:18 <steven> like vs a bunch of humans going first and dropping a fireball is pretty damn powerful.
56:41 <Magus> Okay, switched in toughness. So improved init, and toughness are my feats now
56:56 <steven> just being like hey lets start this fight with all the enemies blooded!
57:08 <steven> pretty good.
57:18 <Magus> And potentially on fire with a metamagic feat. Yea. I'm fine leaving it
57:36 <Magus> Even if for my first 9 adventures I'll just be casting daze 137 times
58:39 <Magus> So 11 hp at lvl 1?
58:48 <Magus> With toughness*
59:23 <Magus> Mmk. So any other simple thoughts? 
59:54 <steven> simple thoughts...
00:09 <steven> "It's not fair I can't do things that other people can do!"
00:10 <Magus> Any thoughts on the character xD
00:16 <Magus> Simple thoughts on other things
00:17 <Magus> xD
00:23 <Magus> Yea. Like that. Continue as you like
00:40 <steven> "I shouldn't be penalized for when I started the Campaign."
00:57 <steven> "I should have all the options available to me!"
01:22 <steven> "This book I bought is totally worthless!"
01:23 <Magus> "What do you mean I can't use silent image that way? The spell description doesn't say I can't!"
01:42 <Magus> "You totally should judge a book by it's cover. It's summary and description is normally there"
02:13 <Magus> UGH I JUST WANT TO START A CAMPAIGN
02:15 <steven> "You removed SLA early entry?  WHY I WAS GOING TO MAKE USE OF THAT IN 3 MONTHS!"
02:27 <Magus> I don't get that one :(
02:32 <Magus> Elaborate xD
02:37 <steven> just stuff on the paizo forum.
03:05 <Magus> :(
03:24 <steven> a faq came out last year that allowed you to get early access by using spell like abilities to qualify for prestige class prerequisites
03:58 <Magus> o.o
04:33 <steven> so an aasimar with daylight could qualify for prestige classes that required he be able to cast 3rd level arcane spells.
04:47 <Magus> That seems really stupid
04:56 <steven> without actually being able to cast any other 3rd level spells.
04:59 <Magus> It shouldn't work on something so conditional
05:00 <Magus> Yea.
05:03 <steven> I agree.
05:47 <Magus> Oh, but yea, any other recommendations, and what should I buy xD I am not naked, but that is as far as I went
07:15 <steven> so today they made a revision to the faq that stated that SLA could only be used to qualify for specific requirements, so instead of aasimar daylight filling requirement for arcane spellcasting 3rd level, it now counts as being able to cast daylight as the spell for any feats/whatnot that have casting daylight as a prerequisite.
07:31 Tashes has quit (Quit: Leaving)
07:53 <Magus> That... Is exactly what it should be though
08:11 <Magus> Since again, they don't have access to even a majority of 3rd level spells
08:48 <steven> that is what was argued.
09:28 <steven> of course this likely never would have come up and been revised if people hadnt pushed to get the prestige class Evangalist special restriction removed.
10:20 <steven> because there was a special caveat for pfs that stated you couldnt take levels in the class before level 6 to specifically stop early entry.
10:43 <steven> and people wanted that removed.
11:23 <Mekkis> steven, are you sure?
11:40 <steven> i said likely.
12:17 <Mekkis> can you confirm that you didn't hear about this before they sprung it on you?
13:54 <steven> Mike brock clearly stated that he didnt share it outside of the office.
15:16 <steven> but hypothetically; if he had told me, i wouldnt be able to tell you that he told me, because it would be covered by my NDA.
15:39 <steven> luckily it isnt the case here, because he didnt tell anyone outside the office.
16:44 <Mekkis> my only character who tried to use that loophole retrained out of it a few levels ago
19:21 <steven> hmmm.... second bonus feat for my character from mythic.
30:06 <Mekkis> So, over the past couple of years, what big Pathfinder changes have happened?
32:57 <steven> oh mans!  I'm gonna go with Alertness and Mythic Alertness.
36:10 <steven> @mekkis... stuff?
37:33 <Mekkis> Was there anything between Synthesist ban, and the SLA stuff?
40:15 <steven> i cant really recall anyting that shattered my pfsing.
40:51 <steven> none of my characters really make use of Table variation.
56:08 <Magus> Anyway. Nice chatting, and thank you for your help sir.
56:13 <Magus> I think I'm going to sleep for a few hours
01:17 Magus has quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
12:28 <Mekkis> steven, can you give me Paizo's definition of a 'rebuild'
12:37 <Mekkis> (as per the 'free rebuild' boon)
12:38 <Mekkis> ?
26:18 <steven> its in the guide
27:00 <steven> but if you're looking for specific wording, prolly on the boon trading forum.
