You don't want to attack in melee with the draconic sorc - you want to go full spellcaster. The melee options, like the Draconic strength are trap choices; it's much better to use a shield and Shocking grasp as your weapon of choice. This allows you to ignore Str as a stat and concentrate on...

Sergeant Ojor Otragal Str 9 Dex 13 Con 15 Int 11 Wis 14 Cha 18 Race: Human Class: Sorcerer, Red dragon draconic line Background: Soldier Specialty: Magic-User (Detect Magic and Light) HP: 10 AC: 17 Initiative: +1 Attack modifiers: Melee: +2 Ranged +2 Magical +6 Cantrips: Ray of frost...

There are some editing error in the document, underestandable on the other hand. That's one. My guess is too 8th level, costs 3 Willpower to use.

That was actually kind of the point. At least for the first levels this kind of build gives as much damage as a sword and board fighter who's using his CS die for damage, and superior AC through Shield, which becomes spammable at later levels. Later though the fighter's CS dice makes him...

Nevermind, I changed my mind. I was looking for a reliable source to fuel Aura of Souls, but I think the familiar at level 3 holds more potential.

I'll assume it's the standard array. Here's the character, then: Sergeant Ojor Otragal Str 9 Dex 13 Con 15 Int 11 Wis 14 Cha 18 Race: Human Class: Sorcerer, Red dragon draconic line Background: Soldier Specialty: Magic-User (Detect Magic and Light) HP: 10 AC: 17 Initiative: +1 Attack...

I've not read the adventure, so as far I'm concerned, do as you think it's better. Also, since we're playtesting and therefore we have the sacred duty of being as much of a munchkin as we can, I'll try to break the system with a human Soldier Magic-User Necromancer Sorcerer. Do you want us to...

They used the words "reality hacker", so...

And with this, this thread is damgerously close to become a one way trip into tv tropes

It intended to be something like "dwark brain hors d'oeuvre with his own beard", but look slike google translator failed me.

Let's remember that Eric's Grandmother can read these comments, so certain discussions shouldn't be brought up -Stalker0

That's probably close to what I meant - I want to know how it behaves in a standard game. Cliched is good. I'm not interested on the other hand, in an excercise of let's make this game good regardless of the rules; that would be pointless for a playtesting.

If you need players I'm interested. I'm going to be bluntly sincere, though - I don't have a very good opinion of the current rules iteration, but want to try them before making my mind. This means actually testing the rules, so I'm not interested on a long flavorful story with lots of...

Well, if that's what you really think I don't believe there's much point in continuing the discussion, or to have started it in the first place.

I don't know how you read that. The kind of metagaming I was referring doesn't have anything to do with tactical depth - it's all done before the actual game begins.

I assume you've not around these boards for a decade. Just google "quadratic wizards". It yields 11 thousand results, I'm sure that's enough to keep you entertained for a while. You were asserting that you could guess ability scores on your own; otherwise, I suppose that avoiding a long string...

I won't argue this issue, since it's been repeteadly proven that this approach breaks casters at high level, and badly. Also, if casters are supposed to be balanced by the careful rationing of resources, the worst thing you can do is giving them so meny resources that rationing them is a...

Only if you want to build a system that's puposefully broken (I'm not convinced it's not their intention, though). It's the old quadratic wizard again, just slightly worse. Gain more spells, new spells are more powerful, old spells are even more powerful. Having a system that actively...

Specialties are a marvelous idea. Now for each page of feat bloat, they can fill another with prepackaged feat combinations.

Initial impression is very unfavorable. Even leaving out the fiddly parts that can be excused as being a product in development it’s either bland, unwieldy or uninteresting. The worst part is magic – not only they fail to recognize it’s potential, again making it not quadratic but cubic but it...
