Feint Whispers Chapter #8: You will Rune the Day... party stats and ooc

Well to use a term from EQ and other online games..

I see how it's now useless to get spells like Endurance, Bull's Strength and such except as fodder for scrolls and potions. Duration went from hours/level to minutes/level which makes it really and truly a 'rush' item now.. sorry to see that coming in 3.5


Check out Monte Cook's review of the new versions. He hits it about the same as I have from what little I've heard.. a mix of good and bad

See, I disagree. You have to think of the duration in terms of rounds. At minimum, the buffs will work for 30 rounds. Looking back at the dungeons I have run you guys through, you could stay buffed for more 3 or 4 combats easily. It makes time a factor, yes, but I don't see the change rendering these spells dramatically less useful.

As to Monte's review...bleh...
 

Updated my character, added a new shield, probably just continue to just enchant his current gear, anyone need any money to enchant stuff, I got 500 GP to donate it need be :)
 




I'm still planning out the next chapter, expect a post either tommorow or Friday. I apologize for the delay.

Geography will become somewhat more important in the coming chapters, so I did a quick descriptive writeup of the Kingdom here:

I am planning to upload a crude sketch as well to assist those who need greater visualization.

So get excited, because this will be like real war, only with a less controversial justification: beacuse it's magic!!!
 



It's Here....

The new game thread is up here:

I hope to convert to 3.5 by the end of this coming chapter. You can revise your character stats when you (hopefully) level up. If you do not have the new books, these sites should suffice:

Let me know if you have any conscerns or questions. I am pretty flexible on this stuff, because I know it can be touchy.

Oh, yeah, and I apologize for the delays. ;)
