20:39:46 <Steven1> wow... well that session was fantastic
20:39:54 <Steven1> played for 4 hours.
20:40:32 <Steven1> we jumped on a steam boat, ran into a locked gate and two towers. We investigate
20:40:58 <Steven1> in each tower, one CR 1/2 zombie.
20:41:12 <Steven1> we break gate
20:41:23 <Steven1> we kill zombies
20:41:43 <Steven1> we spend 30 minutes trying to figure out why we are at this location
20:42:01 <Steven1> we get bored and take off.
20:42:41 <Steven1> we go upriver, find a... body of water larger then a pond smaler then a lake.
20:43:13 <Steven1> there is a crashed ship in it, we investigate, find lockbox
20:43:18 <Steven1> my character picks the lock.
20:43:25 <Steven1> gets jabbed by poisoned needle
20:43:29 <Steven1> make the save.
20:43:36 <Steven1> find 12 pieces of Rifle ammunition.
20:43:50 <Steven1> end session
20:45:00 <Steven1> We're level 4... and the entire session could have been done in a storyboard mode because we actually didnt do shit.
20:47:23 <Steven1> we basically 'found out' the chick we are trying to find actually went this direction...
20:47:49 <Steven1> but we already knew that... i feel like the GM was trolling the group
21:53:29 <Steven1> finally found omething to buy on my pirate character, Storm Goggles
21:54:07 <Steven1> no penalty on perception for storms and what not.
22:09:58 <Mekkis> not goz mask?
22:11:42 <Steven1> goz masks are not well liked by some people in the shackles
22:13:59 <Mekkis> fog-cutting lenses then?
22:15:04 <Mekkis> Expedition Manager: can it be used multiple times?
22:16:02 <Steven1> iunno
22:22:35 <Steven1> like the Master of Gales, Free Captain and member of the Pirate Council was born to the koboto tribe
22:22:39 <Steven1> and he hates em
22:22:48 <Mekkis> fair enough

22:23:12 <Mekkis> !item Earth Child Faceguard
22:23:14 <diebot> Mekkis, EARTH CHILD FACEGUARD [moderate transmutation] CL:10 head 10000gp, 0lb
22:23:14 <diebot> Decorated with the emblems of the Earth Child cadre, an earth child faceguard is designed to refine the wearer's focus when fighting giants. The wearer gains the benefits of Earth Child Style (Pathfinder RPG Ultimate Combat 99), regardless of whether she meets the prerequisites. If the wearer does not possess the defensive training racial trait,
22:23:14 <diebot> the dodge bonus to AC against giants is reduced to +2. If the wearer already possesses the Earth Child Style feat, she can enter the earth child stance as a free action. Source: Giant Hunters Handbook

22:23:44 <diebot> Mekkis, HORNED HELM OF THE WILD STAG [moderate transmutation] CL:7 head 14000gp, 3lb
22:23:45 <diebot> The description is too long to send over IRC. View http://nl.ti4200.info/vpsirc/items/horned_helm_of_the_wild_stag.html

22:24:30 <diebot> Mekkis, BOOTS OF THE MASTODON [moderate transmutation] CL:8 feet 10500gp, 2lb
22:24:30 <diebot> These massive boots are made from mastodon hide. The boots are so large and cumbersome that their wearer takes a -2 penalty on Stealth checks, but gains a +2 enhancement bonus on overrun attempts and a +2 dodge bonus to AC while attempting an overrun combat maneuver. In addition, once per day the wearer can make a trample attack (Bestiary 305).
22:24:30 <diebot> Regardless of his actual size, the creature wearing the boots can trample creatures of size Large or smaller in his path. The trample attack deals 2d8+18 points of damage (Reflex DC 29 halves). Source: Ultimate Equipment
22:24:47 <Mekkis> !item Rod Of Balance
22:24:48 <diebot> Mekkis, ROD OF BALANCE [faint abjuration] CL:5 none 15000gp, 5lb
22:24:49 <diebot> This short, slender rod appears to be crafted from solid iron, though it is incredibly light. In this shortened form, the rod has no powers. However, when the wielder pushes a small button on one end of the rod (a move action), the rod springs open to a 5-foot length, and its powers become available for use. Once extended, the rod possesses several
22:24:49 <diebot> powers that add to the wielder's acrobatic abilities. The wielder of the rod receives a +10 competence bonus on all Acrobatics checks involving long jumps and high jumps; additionally, the wielder covers double the normal distance for a jump when making an Acrobatics check. The individual holding the rod also gain a +4 dodge bonus to AC when
22:24:49 <diebot> fighting defensively instead of the usual +2 bonus. Also, while using this item, the user of the rod cannot be knocked prone, and takes only half damage from falling. A rod of balance emits a faint aura of the abjuration and transmutation schools. Source: Ultimate Equipment
22:25:07 <Steven1> and we are going to be in a race, to which he is the judge.
22:25:23 <Mekkis> Bring an alchemical dragon. Race on it
22:25:40 <Steven1> Not enough time to make the 85k i need.
22:25:49 <Steven1> otherwise i totally would.
22:26:09 <Mekkis> you have a ship full of loot and you can't afford 100k?
22:27:31 <Steven1> a unit of plunder sells anywhere from 500-1500g
22:27:43 <Steven1> a ship can carry anywhere between 5-20 units
22:27:52 <Mekkis> hmm
22:28:34 <Steven1> so far we've favored having a bigger fleet over having a bunch of gold
22:29:05 <Steven1> even though we also have exceeded our wealth by level.
22:30:21 <Mekkis> Are you racing, or does it need to be your ship?
22:30:24 <Steven1> level 7, i have an 18k weapon, 3k armor, 2k ring, 4k Aomf, a belt and a headband.
22:30:33 <Steven1> we have to be in a ship to race.
22:30:57 <Steven1> and i thinkt he GM would probably say we need to be on the water.
22:31:10 <Steven1> a +2 cloak of resistance
22:31:13 <Mekkis> How fast does a ship typically go?
22:31:42 <Mekkis> How fast does Your ship go?
22:31:45 <Steven1> top speed of 90ft/round
22:32:08 <Mekkis> (Otherwise I'd suggest making use of my new favourite item)
22:32:43 <Steven1> the pearls are pretty great, but i think the gm would say we need to be in a ship
22:32:54 <Mekkis> pearls?
22:33:02 <Steven1> pearl of the siren
22:33:07 <Steven1> something like that
22:33:11 <Steven1> gives swim speed 60ft
22:33:13 <Mekkis> !item pearl of the siren
22:33:14 <diebot> Mekkis, PEARL OF THE SIRINES [moderate abjuration and transmutation] CL:8 none 15300gp, 0lb
22:33:14 <diebot> This pearl is worth at least 1,000 gp for its beauty alone, yet if it is clasped firmly in hand or held to the breast while the possessor attempts actions related to the pearl's powers, she understands and is able to employ the item. The pearl enables its possessor to breathe in water as if she were in clean, fresh air. Her swim speed is 60 feet,
22:33:15 <diebot> and she can cast spells and act underwater without hindrance. Source: Ultimate Equipment
22:33:32 <Mekkis> that's not my new favourite item
22:33:48 <Steven1> the bard bought one, and then taunted my character because he could swim faster
22:33:52 <Mekkis> the &Helm of the Valkyrie is
22:34:05 <Mekkis> !item Helm of the Valkyrie
22:34:06 <diebot> Mekkis, HELM OF THE VALKYRIE [strong conjuration] CL:14 head 16000gp, 3lb
22:34:06 <diebot> This shining helm glints with the multicolored hues of the aurora, and features wings carved of fine whalebone that sweep back from the temples. While it is in good shape, it shows signs of having seen battle. Once per day the wearer can summon a giant spectral wolf. Treat this as phantom steed cast by a 14th-level caster, but with an AC of 24 (-1
22:34:06 <diebot> size, +8 natural armor, +7 Dexterity) and 100 hit points. The wolf can persist for up to 24 hours, as long as the creature that summoned it is still wearing the helm of the valkyrie. Even though it takes the form of a fierce predator and is more powerful than other phantom steeds, the mount is nothing more than mist and can't attack. Source:
22:34:06 <diebot> Advanced Class Guide
22:34:46 <Steven1> meh
22:34:54 <Mekkis> 24 hour steed that flies and goes 100' per round.
22:35:03 <Mekkis> sorry, "speed of 100'"
22:35:19 <Steven1> thats not really all that great. if i understand the race we're going to be going near the eye of abendego
22:35:32 <Mekkis> and?
22:35:33 <Steven1> or maybe partially into it
22:35:51 <Steven1> flying in a hurricane comes with problems.
22:36:00 <Mekkis> It can water walk instead
22:36:24 <Steven1> up and down waves.
22:36:51 <Steven1> i think you'd likely go a lot slower then a ship
22:37:07 <Steven1> i dunno, my character is pretty well set up for this race
22:37:10 <Mekkis> hmm
22:37:30 <Steven1> he treats all storms as 1 category lower for purposes of sailing
22:37:56 <Mekkis> how accessible are scrolls?
22:38:11 <Steven1> depends on what scroll a person is trying to find.
22:38:40 <Steven1> we already found a sunken ship that was supposedly notorous upon the seas
22:38:46 <Mekkis> Submerge Ship?
22:38:49 <Steven1> and i was like scroll of salvage go go!
22:38:58 <Steven1> and the gm shot that one down.
22:39:32 <Steven1> submerge is 7th if memory servers
22:39:40 <Steven1> probably not available
22:40:47 <Mekkis> it is
22:41:37 <Mekkis> (it is from the Skull and Shackles APs)
22:47:33 <Steven1> yup it i
22:47:36 <Steven1> is
22:56:05 <Mekkis> looking at the different 2000gp items available
22:58:04 <Steven1> think im going to buy a few scrolls: Fabricate, Make Whole, control water,
22:58:09 <Mekkis> !item Ioun stone, Scarlet and Blue Sphere
22:58:10 <Steven1> probably wood shape as well
22:58:12 <diebot> Mekkis, IOUN STONE SCARLET AND GREEN CABOCHON [moderate transmutation] CL:12 none 10000gp, NULLlb
22:58:12 <diebot> This stone grants you the Endurance feat. Source: Seekers

23:01:29 <Steven1> probably Greater Make whole
23:02:31 <Mekkis> Any suggestions for a ring for my sorcerer?
23:03:34 <Mekkis> Useful, greater make whole - they dropped the casting time
23:07:26 <Steven1> made it a lot better as wel.
23:07:27 <Steven1> well
23:07:40 <Steven1> 5lbs/level is actually useful.
23:11:09 <Mekkis> You do have a spyglass, right?
23:12:04 <Steven1> yeah
23:16:07 <Steven1> hmmm... what else might be useful for a race.
23:17:33 <Mekkis> Stuff that makes you go faster?
23:17:52 <Mekkis> Skeleton Crew, for if your crew get tired?
23:19:06 <Mekkis> This is the stuff I'm looking at getting for my sorcerer. Any suggestions: he has about 36k left
23:19:07 <Mekkis> http://pastebin.com/iRMYbJV5
23:19:35 <Mekkis> stuff in brackets he's buying; other stuff is already his
23:34:52 <Steven1> I like spectral shroud for chest slot items
23:35:27 <Mekkis> !item spectral shroud
23:35:31 <diebot> Mekkis, SPECTRAL SHROUD [moderate necromancy] CL:5 chest 26000gp, 0lb
23:35:31 <diebot> This thin, bleached cloth covers the wearer's entire torso. Some also cover the wearer's face, but don't interfere with the wearer's vision. The morbid burial shroud grants the wearer some affinity with the spectral dead. The wearer can discern invisible or ethereal creatures as though using see invisibility. Once per day, the wearer can become
23:35:31 <diebot> incorporeal for 10 rounds and gain a fly speed equal to half his base speed with perfect maneuverability. The wearer can't attack while incorporeal, but can dismiss the effect as a move action. Source: Ultimate Equipment
23:35:59 <Mekkis> I'm casting Sonic Form a lot.
23:36:06 <Mekkis> That's how I get incorporeal
23:38:02 <Steven1> okay...
23:38:28 <Mekkis> Still have the ring slot unused
23:38:42 <Steven1> its a constant see invisibility and see ethereal creatures
23:39:30 <Steven1> thats why its useful, not so much on the 10 rounds per day incorporeal
23:40:34 <Steven1> see invisibility is only a 2nd level spell but at 12th level or better
23:40:58 <Steven1> its still 3-5 castings per day to always been prepared
23:41:04 <Steven1> and have it up
23:51:12 <Steven1> Ring slot that is awesome is the ring of inner fortitude
23:52:20 <Steven1> and ceremonial silk armor w/ Deathless is pretty good stuff
23:53:02 <Mekkis> hmm
23:56:37 <Mekkis> Didn't think about armour enhancements
