[DnD] D&D Discussion & Enlistment (Save Ends)

By the way, may I ask what you used to generate those power cards for the wiki? Except for Glenn and Puyet's Utility Powers, they don't look like screenshots from the pdfs, nor do they look like Character Builder output.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Pang, do you happen to have the July 20 Adventure Tools update?

I was speaking idiomatically.

Dang. No searchable monster manual 3 monsters, updated monster stat blocks, and monsters with the new damage math.

Oh well, maybe it'll pop up soon on torrent sites

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

How ya doing, buddy?

All of the times Cal tried to take initiative, it didn't end well.

For example, bridge crossing attempt in the Horned Hold was a total disaster salvaged only by Skills' and Acer's creativity.

And let's not talk about Lamidian portals. Or gorillas outta nowhere.

So, naturally I'm not well inclined to take the lead. Don't wanna get yelled at if something really bad happens. Let the new guys lead

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

I try to characterize Cal based on interpersonal encounters with PCs and NPCs. Though Pang seems rather intent on twisting Denny into nightmares

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Just curious. The thief stabbed the Eladrin at point blank range, right? Where's he at now?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Oh, ok.

BTW, just looking through my wiki sheet. You can remove the Potion of Healing and Lightning Arrow from the consumable cards section. All used up (and no plans to brew up more).

Hey Pang old buddy. I was wondering if you are willing to take a quick browse through the compendium for any level 6-8 monsters other than duergar who are immune to (or better yet, are healed by) fire and acid.

It does not seem I can do this kind of search via Adventure Tools

A simple list of names will be great.

Thanks!

I was speaking idiomatically.

I guess I should've asked for at least a "resist 10" instead of immune. Still, that list is useful (too bad the fire-resistant creatures are weak to radiant)...

Thanks man

When I do something that involves them, I always give them the chance to back out/stop me! Why else would I invoke a count to three?

I know it's kinda asking too much, but I always feel safer to proceed when there's a map presented. Of course, the reverse is true because of traps. But I just do!

How many highly flammable minions can we murder before we go down (Not many probably given our inability to kill more than one thing at once).

Did you know that fire is the most common resistance out there?

But anyway, I asked for it by going all Monty Haul without the requisite rebalancing (e.g. item daily powers). No, I'm not going to hit you exclusively with fire- and acid-resistent monsters. That would be terribly unsporting, and you know how OCD I can be with 'fairness' and 'honor'. That doesn't mean I'm going to be tossing fire-vulnerable enemies en masse at you either!

I'm still adhering to an XP budget. Giving enemies extra gear kind of throws the calculations off. Buuuuuut, if that's what you want, why not...

One of the reasons I don't want to kill you immediately is to see what kind of plans you come up with. Don't disappoint me

I'm going to save up for a Griffon if we survive the day.

Hmm, I still like to keep a logical narrative although I'm obviously railroading you. We'll see!

* Scribbles in notepad *
- Shin wants more unorthodox battles with interesting terrain.
- Give enemies flying mounts.
- Hope Ivory's insured against falling damage.

Oh, he didn't

How awkward for us both

On the bright side, he has 1 day more (48 hours from Gheth's post) to wake up so as not to invoke Pang Rule 1!

FELIPE NO

Nyet. Gary's in the museum room. Sent him back a few posts ago

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

O well. My conscience is clear. I totally told the goblin to go back.

Did he listen? Pfft.

Hopefully we can get more goblin and skeleton minions from the Temple!

P.S. The girl is moar like Deni than Skills.

How ya doing, buddy?

When you push, the enemy must move (in any direction) further away from you with every step. If you want to move them in any direction, including drawing them to you, that's a slide.

Flute of the Dancing Satyr! Tundra Wind! Tune of Ice and Wind! You are missed.

Regardless, forced movement doesn't attract opportunity attacks.

Would you be doing this "Everybody Move" thing before Gheth, so he gets spared from some potentially punishing retaliation?

P.S. I don't suppose anyone's up for a little Heroes of Light diplomacy?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Yeah, but apparently it takes a standard (houseruled to minor) to use it in combat.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

slessman, this is a play-by-post campaign. For real life games, you may also want to try a dedicated forum for precisely this.

How ya doing, buddy?

+5 Strength modifier <-- use dexterity mod (+0) for ranged attacks
+3 Half your level
+2 Proficiency bonus <-- not available for improvised weapons
+2 Weapon Enhancement bonus <-- not available for improvised weapons unless Garr uses his augmenting whetstone on it

I reckon a halfling projectile is for all intents and purposes an improvised thrown weapon. +3 attack bonus, 1d4 damage. If you successfully convince Pang it should count as "heavy thrown" then it's +8 attack roll, 1d4 + 5 damage.

----

Heh, strike 2 for GFZ. This is a first, Pang introducing a new party member and killing him right off.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Damn prone halfling

Pang, is Cal in a position to ascertain whether Black Mage is holding any melee weapons? That is to say, any chance for BMAG to do opportunistic melee basic attacks?

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Ok, thanks. Next question!

Suppose Cal wants to confiscate Black Mage's staff and taunt him by holding it over his head out of reach for the little guy. How do we go about this mechanically? Might I be able to argue this as an act of Thievery?

FELIPE NO

Naw. Throw White Mage instead. Go go Gheth

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Pang, combat advantage gives +2 to attack rolls. Will you extend this "+2 bonus to your attack rolls" to enemy disarm attempts? I'm contemplating whether to use my (never ever ever before used) racial encounter during my next turn.

___


Psst Garr. Wanna help disarm a black mage? (Or maybe Garland --- +6 Athletics vs Fort 18 is better than +8 Attack Rolls vs his 21 AC anyhoo). If Pang agrees on combat advantage bonus, flank 'em first (if you're willing to risk an OA to move to O107). Sheathe the sword first before disarming so you can steal his wapon!

(Okay, why's Garr bloodied after an 11 HP hit? He didn't surge to full after last battle or something?)

Jam it back in, in the dark.

O shi---

Sorry Garr

(Alright guys, open season on White Mage who's totally granting combat advantage to everyone who's not Gheth!)

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Pang, I'm debating whether to activate Weave Through the Fray or Yield Ground.

What happens if I cause a mini-time warp by activating the former? Will it nullify the charge attack damage?

Insert disgruntled thumbsucking about Cal as more easy to eat than a halfling white mage who's spouting blood.

How ya doing, buddy?

Zeph, I activated a power that shifts me back 2 squares. So you're going to have to combine your move and charge to reach the Rampager (who's at N111 or N112).
