Eadric et. al. (The Paladin and his Friends).

Reading this rogue's gallery is nearly as entertaining as the story hour itself... Sepulchrave obviously knows his stuff when it comes to the crunchy side of D&D. I especially like to be able to see the stats of the main characters.

He's pretty good at the story hour bit too

Bump! Any chance that we can get an update in here Sep, if you're not writing in the main SH thread?---perhaps it'll fire your imagination again

Hey Sep, any chance for some updated pc stats? Obviously things have moved along a lil bit!

Thanks!

So, if you were a celestial paladin type, how would you generate enough damage to slay a archduke of hell in two strokes or less? Say maybe 25HD equivalent or so per blow, so 200hp let's say. With a last-published crit range of 15-20, we can probably say one is a crit I guess, so maybe only 120hp per blow.

Weapon of 6 for the d10, +8 for enhancement, another +8 for fiendbane. Smite for +20 or so. Strength of what, 44 with Strength domain power and belt, for a nice +17. That's 59 as a primitive starter.

Add in some power attack, up to +20 (or more), probably divine might for the cha boost to damage, maybe +10 or more (he is half celestial now, I'm sure his cha is crazy), throw in double damage to evil from his sunblade (do they still do that? Is that to undead only?) and some bonus damage from fiendbane and that ups us to 89*2=178+4d6 dmg, plus he may have some sort of Epic smiting to up it past +20... spectacular, to say the least...

Perhaps Sep ruled that, from a physical attack POV, a creature confined in a magic circle/thaumaturgic triangle/etc. is essentially helpless and is subject to a coup de grâce? After all, such figures can't really take any defensive actions since they have no room to maneuver, and their magical powers are negated while imprisoned....

I have a feeling that Eadric just outright full attacked him. If you think about it, with his epic smiting on multiple probably power-criticalled attacks, he could deal well over 200 damage. The guy he attacked was a diplomat type it sounded like, so he probably didn't have many hitpoints (in the grand scheme of things; 200 hitpoints really is a lot heh). If I remember, Sonneillon only had around 200ish and I believe so did Titivilius.

A Bump for this great thread.

Anyone feel like taking a shot at writing up an epic paladin, see what kind of damage can be done in two shots?

Eadric has Pal 15/ Divine (Agent? Disciple?) 5/ A few levels to up him to half celestial/ a few levels I'm probably missing. Might be fun, if I had the books and time I'd take a shot...
