Comments on Characters

Rhun: Skorl Darkskull looks great.

Pyrex: Nikolai looks great. Please post a short (1-2 sentence) version of the Complete Mage spells you are using (my copy of Complete Mage has not yet arrived).

Dirk: Is the name of your character 'Dirk'? Your Hexblade gets 24 skill points, not 20. AC is 17, since bracers of armor +1 don't stack with chain shirt +1. Still need a background.

Hafrogman: Cedric looks great.

Ivid: Dareios gets another stat point (25 point buy, you spent 24). Hit Points: 40 instead of 54. AC: 19 (10+7 armor +2 shield), not 23. Are you sure you didn't want mw full plate instead of mw half-plate? MW full-plate is more expensive --you might have to change around your magic items or drop Mithral from your shield, but you would have AC: 21 (10+8 armor +2 shield +1 dex).

IndustryGothicka: Your elven Druid3/Rogue2 looks like a good start. Hit points should be 26, not 31. Druids get Listen and Spot as class skills, but they do not get Hide, Move Silently, and Search. So you need to change your skills slightly. You could have 6.5 in Hide Move Silently, and Search, or you could have 5 in Hide, Move Silently, and Search and invest the skill points in some ranks in Druid skills.

Lightbringer Members so far: Dirk, Nikolai

I've still got a little cash to spend. Any suggestions?


Probably have this done tomorrow night or Monday...I'm having a big Halloween bash at my place tonight, so I'm not going to have much time today.

Will do. They're both pretty straightforward.

You might always consider grabbing a few potions; they're never a bad investment.

My character is partially posted... still need to finish up some things, but it is all there except the following:
~ Appearance
~ Backstory
~ EQ
~ Memorized Spells
~ Turning information (calculations, etc)
~ Domain writeouts (add domain powers into char sheet, write-out domains, etc)

Thanks endur, its a working progress lol, no i havent come up with a name yet im working on it. Also on the buckler there is another darwback, if wielded with a two-handed weapon (because its strapped to the arm) you would get a -1 to attack roles from the extra weight correct? Alos in my case it would have to be sheathed for me to cast my spells correct?

I don't know why I was adding a +2 CON bonus for the HP instead of +1. Anyway, that part is fixed.

I wanted to ask you about the skills first, though. I know that in 3.0 ranks in a class exclusive skill could only be bought after raising a level in that particular class. In 3.5, however, it looks like they've done away with class exclusive skills. The way I read it, as long as a skill was a class skill for at least one of your classes, it was consdiered a class skill for your character and could be bought at any time.

I don't want to sound argumentative - I'd just like a little clarification. Ultimately, I'll do it however you want it done. You're the boss.

 

[hafrogman]

There are no class exclusive skills any more, you can buy any skill. However, you pay double for cross class skills, and can only purchase ranks up to (level+3)/2.

When multiclassing, you treat both skill lists as class skills for the purposes of max ranks. However, when purchasing skills with each level's skill points, you spend them on that level's class skill list.

Looks great so far.

Okay, worked some more on my character. I still need to finish EQ (I have about a grand left to spend - anyone have suggestions?) and finish and post my backstory, but I should be done mechanically.
