DCC #7 The Secret of Smuggler's Cove (full)

[HolyMan]

Well the group I see so far has...

Leif: Elf Druid LvL 5 - So besides 3rd lvl spells we will have spontaneous summoning, extra healing, and you get to wild shape once per day. Are you taking a companion or a domain for your nature bond?

Scotley: Elf Archer LvL 5 - So range support taken care of. If you should get into any tight spots Scotley what is your back up melee weapon? I ask because a lot of this is classic dungeon crawl and taking AoO's for firing sometimes might not be in your best interest. Kind of like what happens if you get surrounded or the room/area is super small.

Fenris: Dwarven Monk LvL 5 - The groups short but thick tank. I too wanted to play a monk of the sacred mountain (for if I ever play a monk), and can't wait to see yours in action.

Mark Chance: Gnome Cleric/Rogue LvL 3/2 - Your sblock says some notes but it looks like a full fledged character almost to me. So still trying to trick the arcane trickster class eh? I like it. Let's see more healing specially with extra channeling and most skills that will be needed. Oh and you have Hand of the Acolyte (cool ability).

rangerjohn: ?? ?? - Well old buddy looks like all that is left is the arcane caster/face roll. Care to play a bard? LOL Actually would come in rather handy I believe. The monk would benefit from the +2 bonus to hit and damage (would that apply to archer attacks?). But play what you wish another cleric LvL 5 would bring in some good buff spells or you could be a paladin?!? as the face. It looks like a lot of bases are covered.

Either that or sorcerer to cover arcane/blaster/face roll.

 

[rangerjohn]

Actually, halfling sorcerer has been perculating in the back of my mind all along.

 

[HolyMan]

Sounds great. Now the long hard process of choosing a bloodline.

[rangerjohn]

Oh if I do go the halfling sorcerer route, it would be air elemental bloodline and have cosmopolitan as a feat. In order to have diplomacy as a class skill.

 

[HolyMan]

Both look like a good fit to the group. I guess you just need to flip a coin LOL.

EDIT: Although you can't get Arcane Blast till you are a 10th lvl caster.

EDIT2: And you won't need the Exotic Weapon Prof. to use the heirloom weapon.

[Scotley]

Oh, I'll carry a big pointed stick of some sort.

Will try to get something more definitive together soon.

 

[Mark Chance]

Mark Chance: Gnome Cleric/Rogue LvL 3/2 - Your sblock says some notes but it looks like a full fledged character almost to me.

As I tell my students about finishing assignments: Almost doesn't count.

So, about pre-game crafting of nonmagical weapons...?

 

[rangerjohn]

Didn't catch the level requirement. There goes the whole concept, I really don't see any decent spells on the list. Nothing that I would cast every day. Why is it every iteration I see of a bard's spell list is worse than the last? If they don't want bards to cast spells, take it away and replace it! Don't make the ability worthless.
