16:21:47 <Alynn> howdy all
16:34:16 <Mekkis> hey hye
16:34:32 <Mekkis> how's it going bra
16:35:21 <Alynn> I am well, you?
16:38:56 <Mekkis> Alright, trying to decide on spells for my cleric
16:39:21 <Mekkis> So far it's looking like something like:
16:39:22 <Mekkis> 5th Aspect of the WolfD , Holy Ice, Empty Slot
16:39:22 <Mekkis> 4th FireballD , Blessing of Fervor (2), Divine Power
16:39:22 <Mekkis> 3rd FireballD , Daylight, Prayer, tongues, Empty Slot
16:39:22 <Mekkis> 2nd Aspect of the BearD , Pilfering Hand, Burst of Radiance, Surpress Charms and Compulsions, Empty Slot,
16:39:22 <Mekkis> Empty Slot
16:39:22 <Mekkis> 1st FrostbiteD , Liberating Command (2), Bless, Comprehend Languages, Divine Favour
16:39:35 <Alynn> *nods* I am just sniffing about to see if I can find a gm for a 5th ed game for my group on discord lol
16:46:44 <Mekkis> tired of GMing?
16:47:10 <Alynn> nah we need a gm and I don't want to GM as I am a player lol
16:48:07 <Mekkis> What happened to the old GM?
16:49:13 <Alynn> we are just getting the group together so we don't have one yet lol
17:07:17 Alynn has quit (Quit: Man who run behind car get exhausted)
18:51:39 <Steven1> ...
18:51:46 <Steven1> "A guy who has never played tabletop before will be playing with us tomorrow. He'll be playing a sorcerer 3/bloodrager 1 if thats alright. He chose draconic bloodline. Will the levels stack for his claws ability? Also will his bloodrager bloodline increase with dragon disciple? Thats what he wants to go into later."
18:53:33 <Steven1> the group i'm running right now is currently on a pirate ship.
18:53:39 <Steven1> at sea
18:53:56 <Brunius> ol' mate is a adrift? a convert from a ship they plunder?
18:54:20 <Steven1> thats what its going to have to be
18:54:37 <Brunius> Would be nice if you got more than a day's notice eh
18:54:44 <Steven1> yup.
18:55:18 <Steven1> the other thing that annoys me, "A guy who has never played tabletops before..."
18:55:39 <Steven1> and "... Sorcerer 3/bloodrager1..."
18:55:51 <Brunius> Yeah, just shove this guy with no experience into a multiclass
18:55:54 <Brunius> that'll go well
18:56:12 <Steven1> yeah.
18:56:36 <Steven1> cause we couldnt make him a barbarian or a fighter.
18:57:01 <Brunius> My go to for new players is probably a fighter or cleric
18:57:23 <Steven1> I'm a big fan of first time players getting barbarians.
18:57:28 <Brunius> cleric because it's an easily understood archetype (though prep cards for spells would be nice) and fighter because bang bang hitty hitty is easy to understand
18:57:40 <Steven1> cause its real simple. pick up d20 add with this number
18:57:42 <Steven1> oh you hit.
18:57:51 <Steven1> roll this dice and add 14 damage.
18:58:02 <Steven1> yeah you obliterate this thing in one hit
18:58:29 <Steven1> makes new players feel great when they murder the fuck out of something.
18:59:42 <Steven1> but hey... now we get a sorcerer3/bloodrager1 going into dragon disciple
19:01:01 <Steven1> I honestly dont understand why a person would go sorc3/blood1 and not the other way around.
19:01:55 <Steven1> DD is not a great option for casting based class.
19:05:20 <Mekkis> poin
19:05:40 <Mekkis> Yeah, but flavour!
19:07:21 <Steven1> ah yes... the flavor of an unknown traveler shipwrecked, stranded upon the high seas.
19:08:05 <Steven1> then rescued by a ship full of doe eyed morons who instead of depositing him at the nearest dockside whore house instantly makes him a part of their inner circle.
19:08:31 <Mekkis> heh
19:08:50 <Mekkis> Should just ransom him
19:09:00 <Steven1> its what i would do.
19:09:26 <Steven1> either that or make him a swabby for at least 6 months in repayment for the recue
19:09:33 <Mekkis> heh
19:09:42 <Mekkis> Did you see my prepared spells?
19:09:45 <Mekkis> Any suggestions?
19:11:04 <Steven1> FoM
19:11:25 <Mekkis> Seems reasonable
19:11:40 <Mekkis> What do I swap out?
19:12:36 <Steven1> divine power?
19:13:02 <Mekkis> hmmm...
19:13:23 <Mekkis> This is a cleric 5 / Dawnflower Dissident 5 at the moment
19:13:31 <Mekkis> so there's a fair amount of melee going on
19:13:37 <Steven1> hmmmm
19:14:54 <Steven1> i think FoM will be more useful then divine favor in preventing you from getting fucked over by grapple
19:15:06 <Steven1> along with paralysis, stun, and what not.
19:15:28 <Steven1> I'd be more enthused about divine power if it was longer then rnds/level
19:20:51 <Mekkis> Hmmm... You may have a point
19:22:43 <Steven1> im a big fan of wall of fire.
19:23:11 <Steven1> double damage vs undead.
19:24:16 <Mekkis> We're in Reign of Winter at the moment. I think the start of the fourth book. I'll prep Wall of Fire when it seems needed
19:24:23 <Mekkis> (Or Wall of Ice)
19:24:47 <Mekkis> Next level I get to have Fun With Fire Seeds
19:27:08 <Steven1> i take it you have the fire domain?
19:29:31 <Steven1> i'd take fire shield
19:29:55 <Steven1> half damage from cold attacks... pretty damn good.
19:52:15 Proquar ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
19:52:29 <Proquar> evenin'
19:52:49 <Avatar> trust proquar
19:52:59 <Proquar> and to you, avatar
19:53:01 <Proquar> :)
19:53:04 <Proquar> when are we playing?
19:53:11 <Avatar> when are you GMing
19:53:29 <Proquar> ah shit
19:53:33 <Proquar> did you know,
19:53:39 <Proquar> i'm the worst GM eva!
19:53:50 <Proquar> even Mavvie has started GM'ing the littlies, and he's better 'an me
19:56:23 <Proquar> have you stopped GM'ing, avatar?
19:57:49 <Mekkis> pro
19:57:56 <Proquar> mekkis!
19:58:03 <Mekkis> you're playing again>
19:58:04 <Mekkis> ?
19:58:21 <Avatar> I'm on hiatus
19:58:30 <Avatar> basically someone just like you needs to step in
19:58:51 * Proquar hangs her head
19:59:04 * Proquar mutters something, you hear 'really, really bad'
19:59:20 <Proquar> i'd probably play at this stage :)
19:59:34 <Proquar> hey mekkis, if you do decide to run - let me know… i can help :)
19:59:45 * Proquar has great campaigning skills, just not GM skills
20:00:33 <Mekkis> you mean run for office?
20:01:47 <Proquar> yeah
20:02:54 <Mekkis> I've been campaigning to get people to vote against the enterprise agreement that they're shoving down our throats.
20:04:44 <Proquar> we don't get to choose that.. .wish people understood, we only get to choose who makes these decisions
20:05:05 <Proquar> interestingly, the ancient Greeks (who invented democracy), wouldn't recognize it as democracy
20:05:05 <Proquar> ;)
20:05:16 <Mekkis> I've probably convinced three or four people
20:05:43 <Proquar> fed MPs?
20:09:22 <Mekkis> nope. People who are voting on it
20:10:54 <Proquar> where do you work?
20:11:06 <Proquar> (sorry - misread what you are campaigning on :)
20:11:34 <Mekkis> Public service
20:13:18 <Proquar> (thought you were trying to save us from any of the Free Trade Agreements :p )
20:20:00 <Mekkis> Might end up being in Sydney in end of July
20:41:49 <Proquar> permanently?
20:41:57 <Mekkis> nah, just a few days
20:45:32 <Mekkis> You free any of Queens Birthday weekend?
20:45:47 <Proquar> should be
20:45:53 <Proquar> (just not Monday night)
20:46:15 <Mekkis> interested in doing some PFS?
20:46:27 <Mekkis> """Our next Con is going to be on the Queen's Birthday Long Weekend, 11-13 June, at Good Games Hurstville. This Con is being coordinated by Luke, ably assisted by the Sydney VAs (all cc'd)."""
21:11:44 <Proquar> could be good for the soul
21:50:06 The_Great_Xandini ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
21:52:08 <The_Great_Xandini> anyone here?
21:52:49 <Brunius> Yes.
21:53:15 <The_Great_Xandini> Was interested in finding a group to RP with for PFS and need some details
21:54:30 <The_Great_Xandini> My local PFS group has become very disheveled recently and I can't seem to find a group there anymore. Now I am looking online to see if I might find some luck here.
21:55:58 <The_Great_Xandini> Do you know if they allow import of PFS characters from table top games?
22:01:32 <Proquar> hey brunius!
