00:34:55 <diebot> Mekkis, EXPEDITIOUS RETREAT transmutation ([]) bard 1, sorcerer/wizard 1, alchemist 1, summoner 1, inquisitor 1, magus 1, bloodrager 1 1 standard action Range: personal you Comp: V, S Duration: 1 min./level (D) Save: SR:Source: PFRPG Core
00:34:56 <diebot> This spell increases your base land speed by 30 feet. This adjustment is treated as an enhancement bonus. There is no effect on other modes of movement, such as burrow, climb, fly, or swim. As with any effect that increases your speed, this spell affects your jumping distance (see the Acrobatics skill).

00:38:57 <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
00:38:57 <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.
02:31:41 <steven> sup
03:26:52 <Avatar> I am beginning to second guess the flame spirit for the shaman already
03:27:49 <Avatar> Mekkis: yeah I wasn't impressed with erasing liberating command from my list
03:28:04 <Avatar> I felt physical pain
03:33:49 <Avatar> most of the spells on the shaman list are taken from the core rulebook I think, so all those communal druid spells had vanish cast on them
03:42:33 <Steven1> anyways... yeah.
03:42:48 <Steven1> had to GM tonight, didnt really want to.
03:43:03 <Steven1> missed out on what sounded like an epic game of Overflow Archives Core.
03:48:24 <Steven1> ran Icebound Outpost.
03:49:14 <Steven1> i dont understand why the neutral aligned baddies are the only ones who fight to the death.
03:49:22 <Steven1> because frankly they have the least motivation to do so.
03:56:20 <Mekkis> because the scenario writers are lazy?
04:04:17 <Mekkis> is it acceptable to ignore tactics when running an AP in PFS?
04:07:32 <Avatar> I think you can do it in campaign mode?
04:07:48 <Avatar> my understanding is all bets are off in campaign mode
04:07:58 <Avatar> either way you should ask/tell your players
04:16:49 <Steven1> its run as written whenever pfs is invovled unless campaign mode or player actions invalidate tactics/moral
04:27:15 <Mekkis> Do you want me to play this 20 int dragon intelligently
04:29:20 <Avatar> that's a very polite way to say can I ignore the tactics against this dragon to kill you as efficiently as possible
04:32:23 <Steven1> suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuup
04:41:50 <Mekkis> It's more "Should I make this dragon NOT die in one round against you guys"
04:44:04 <Avatar> sup
04:44:12 <Avatar> is flame spirit a bad choice
04:58:45 <Steven1> i wouldnt classify it as a good choice for pfs
05:00:09 <Steven1> need to find a feat or two for my wizard.
05:00:11 <Steven1> level 17
05:00:22 <Avatar> I think I will go back to heavens
05:00:31 <Avatar> makes more sense for an aasimar anyway
05:00:40 <Avatar> since there is no other good reason for that character to be an aasimar
05:00:44 <Avatar> I never know how to roleplay one
05:01:37 <Steven1> life shaman?
05:01:47 <Steven1> i just play my aasimars like humans.
05:02:37 <Steven1> honey is all gung ho bout sarenrae and probably doesnt really think of herself as an aasimar
05:02:54 <Avatar> nah not life anything
05:03:02 <Avatar> my cleric was the last healer I'll play
05:03:06 <Avatar> destroyed him
05:03:37 <Steven1> more like a human who has taken the right steps towards becoming one of sarenrae's favored
05:08:43 <Avatar> all of the above
05:09:54 <Mekkis> I'd like to hope motive comes into it
05:11:25 <Mekkis> plus, we are talking 13th level
05:13:20 <Avatar> preferred playstyle is more important than character level
05:27:00 <Mekkis> you'd rather cakeWalk the encounter in one round?\
05:48:30 <Avatar> Landruff hasn't taken any steps towards becoming one of sarenrae's favoured
05:48:44 <Avatar> he's more like my sczarni paladin, except less organised and more streetsmart
05:57:08 <steven> i dont really wanna pick another metamagic feat.
05:57:15 <Avatar> don't do it !!!!!!!!
05:58:10 <steven> i already have bouncing, persitant, reach, quicken and still
05:58:53 <Avatar> why
05:59:14 <steven> staff of the master necromancy
06:00:18 <steven> also have spell perfection on my suffocation.
06:00:32 <steven> so its always a persistant suffocation now.
06:02:15 <Avatar> that's sick
06:03:28 <steven> dc 32
06:03:35 <steven> if i spend a free action dc 34
06:03:41 <steven> 4/day
06:04:17 <Avatar> ultimate powahhhh
06:05:48 <steven> maybe i should pick up heighten
06:06:31 <steven> i dont really need reach
06:08:09 <steven> could use an 8th level spell slot, get a dc 37...
06:12:49 <Avatar> if you're not overly interested in combat, then yes
06:30:16 <Avatar> shit I signed up my shaman to play tomorrow and here I am stuck with his build
06:30:30 <ulzef> hey can anyone think of wierd shortened names for males like ted for theodor and bill for william need a name for my character
06:30:52 <Avatar> might switch him, he'd be playing down anyway
06:33:18 <Avatar> tony for anthony
06:33:37 <Avatar> ben for benjamin
06:33:39 <Avatar> ken for kenneth
06:34:15 <Avatar> saved by the alchemist I keep forgetting I have
06:34:49 <Avatar> jerry for jerome
06:45:21 <Mekkis> You know, the 'GM vs player' mentality goes both ways...
06:52:12 <ulzef> hmmm
06:53:01 <Avatar> think I finally finished up my rebuild on my shaman
06:53:24 <Mekkis> you have a shaman?
06:54:44 <Avatar> yeah I rebuilt my druid
06:55:39 <ulzef> might go qwith archi/archibald
06:57:18 <Avatar> http://www.pfrpg.com.au/viewchar.php5?char=359
06:57:45 <Avatar> probably still has a few loose screws to fix
06:58:09 <Avatar> putting a point into cha was probably a mistake
07:01:34 <Avatar> that cut-paste job added a lot of extra shitty spaces into the spell list
07:01:53 <Avatar> are there any items for seeing through fog
07:02:17 <Avatar> goz mask
07:10:13 <Avatar> dunno about that combo
07:10:32 <Avatar> my new character is Pedro, from peter
07:20:10 <Avatar> a personal alchemist spell with infusion is still alchemist-only isn't it
07:20:17 <Avatar> can't pass that to other people
07:25:47 <Mekkis> Avatar, the reason for that was that the shaman only got its spell list late in development.
07:26:04 <Mekkis> Until after the playtest, it was a spontaneous caster that used the druid list
07:34:01 <Mekkis> what school should my wizard be, given that he's planning on being very blasty?
07:42:10 <Mekkis> Damn.
07:42:20 <Mekkis> I think I've chosen the same stat line I did with deceased
07:42:25 <Mekkis> Exactly the same one
07:42:38 <Mekkis> 10/14/12/20/8/8
07:44:03 <Mekkis> So: Fireball et al (Evocation, reflex); Glitterdust et al (Conjuration, will); Blindness/deafness (Necromancy, fort)
07:46:20 <Mekkis> I suppose Enchantment and Transmutation get the flick.
07:46:23 <Mekkis> Or Divination

07:53:55 <diebot> Mekkis, FORGE RING [Item Creation]Prereq: Caster level 7th. You can create magic rings.
07:53:55 <diebot> Benefit: You can create magic rings. Crafting a ring takes 1 day for each 1,000 gp in its base price. To craft a ring, you must use up raw materials costing half of the base price. See the magic item creation rules in Magic Items for more information. You can also mend a broken ring if it is one that you could make. Doing so costs half the raw
07:53:55 <diebot> materials and half the time it would take to forge that ring in the first place. Source: Core

In addition, if you have other feats which allow you to apply
12:26:48 <diebot> a set numerical bonus to any aspect of this spell (such as Spell Focus, Spell Penetration, Weapon Focus [ray], and so on), double the bonus granted by that feat when applied to this spell. Source: APG

16:14:32 <Avatar> I don't care about that
16:14:36 <Avatar> I want my communal spells
16:17:20 <Steven1> i want pie
16:17:31 <Avatar> you're always so easy to please
16:17:41 <Avatar> I too am easy to please in this instance
16:17:52 <Avatar> open the damn APG and go through that spell list and pick out the obvious good ones !
16:17:59 <Avatar> and UC and UM
16:18:01 <Avatar> the big 4
16:18:13 <Avatar> don't skip out on liberating command !
16:18:39 <Avatar> steven do you think I am making a mistake with the flame spirit
16:19:24 <Avatar> http://www.pfrpg.com.au/viewchar.php5?char=359
16:19:42 <Avatar> the only hex I ended up taking was gaze of flames
16:20:08 <Avatar> which I now think I might be unlikely to ever use
16:20:19 * Steven1 shrugs
16:20:28 <Avatar> apart from that it really only offers fire breath and fire resistance
16:20:35 <Avatar> (and fireball)
16:20:44 <Steven1> flame is the most commonly immune damage type
16:20:55 <Avatar> I might switch back to heavens
16:26:56 <Mekkis> avatar, you around?
16:27:02 <Avatar> ya
16:27:12 <Mekkis> just landed.
16:27:16 <Avatar> gg
16:27:46 <Mekkis> when should we meet?
16:30:05 <Avatar> I think we said 1 but that will probably be cutting it close
16:30:08 <Avatar> let's say 12.30
16:30:23 <Avatar> with leniency
16:30:33 <Avatar> I know how you always like to be fashionably late
16:33:53 <Avatar> zzzz
16:34:32 <Mekkis> okay, sounds good. Where?
16:34:55 <Avatar> I'll pick you up from wherever
16:34:58 <Avatar> you tell me where
16:45:57 <Mekkis> let's throw the ball back. I'll be having an early lunch in the city, Russell St.
16:46:13 <Mekkis> I expect to be ambushed by a wild Brunius
16:50:12 <Mekkis> Bloody timezones. Reading some articles, realising that they're a bit strange...
16:50:29 <Mekkis> Read publication date.
17:11:50 <Mekkis> Avatar, you used the 'class has changed' rebuild rules?
17:12:57 <Avatar> yeah
17:13:16 <Avatar> did it with Cairo
17:13:26 <Mekkis> can shamen cast Summon Nature's Ally
17:13:27 <Mekkis> ?
17:13:34 <Avatar> it's funny because paizo seems to prefer to pretend it doesn't exist
17:13:38 <Avatar> no
17:13:45 <Avatar> shaman's spell list is surprisingly limited compared to the druid
17:13:48 <Avatar> I had to take a lot of spells off the list
17:14:01 <Avatar> why
17:14:01 <Mekkis> why do you have the stats for a summon in the middle of your sheet
17:14:11 <Avatar> that was from the druid build
17:14:19 <Avatar> what was the change
17:16:26 <Mekkis> what? The "spontaneous spells" bit applies to druid as much as it applies to cleric...
17:17:10 <Avatar> too much neglecting sleep for pathfinder
17:17:13 <Avatar> I understand
17:18:55 <Avatar> what?
17:19:22 <Avatar> the city is a bit dumb to drive into if you can get out of there
17:19:36 <Avatar> how early is your lunch
17:22:37 <Avatar> shit
17:22:40 <Avatar> I will have to re-read that
17:22:54 <Avatar> the rebuild was going to bring me down to 1/40 prestige
17:28:29 <Mekkis> yeah, shaman lose a lot of the better spells: liberating command, for instance
17:29:03 <Mekkis> planning on starting it at 11-1130
17:43:55 <Steven1> i slept from 2am to 6am and i took a nap at 11-noon... that should have been plenty of sleep
17:44:26 <Steven1> well... noonish.
17:45:40 <Avatar> can you get a train to caulfield station when you're done
17:46:03 <Avatar> south yarra would be the next best, but there's no good spot to pull over around there
