So now the site is finally working, it crashed on me a bunch of times on Monday. Hopefully I'll get back into it by end of week, tomorrow's pretty much a write-off as I'm out dealing with a government audit (fun times). Thanks all for continued patience.

The last time I posted was in June where I left due to time issues. It has come to my attention that I've been having alot of free time and have been craving for D&D for a while.

First things first, I want to apologize to [MENTION=79956]dimsdale[/MENTION] [MENTION=75065]jbear[/MENTION] (for leaving their adventure) [MENTION=6684473]CrimsonFlameWielder[/MENTION] @WalkingDad @SoM [MENTION=88601]FourMonos[/MENTION] (for abandoning their adventurers) for any inconvenience I may have caused because of my sudden departure. I've always felt bad, even though I never lingered on EnW, I still felt guilty IRL.

And now that I'm sure that I can post at a decent rate (at least for the next 6 months), I was wondering if there are any open adventures currently?
 

Welcome back [MENTION=84680]treex[/MENTION]! Good to see you again! There aren't any open adventures currently that I am aware of, but I'm pretty sure there will be a few adventures ending within the next few months for you to jump into! I know that as soon as my character Gray gains lvl 2, I'm swapping him out for a new character of lvl 2, and then that will allow me to also create a new lvl 1 character for my third and final character. Happy to run with any characters you have. Also, if Malakai can ever finish an adventure...he's happy to tag along with your characters as well.
 



Has anyone heard anything from renau1g? He said to be patient...but it's now been more than a month since we've had a post from him in A Knight in D'Argent Manor. The last thing I've seen from him was on the 24th of October, when he said he'd try to post by the end of the week. That didn't happen, and it's been more than 2 weeks since then.

Should we be looking to have a judge/another DM take over that adventure?

C'mon, it's...THE r1g...he'll be back. Inactivity for 2 weeks probably just means he got hit by another car or something ._.

Hope you're safe r1g :<

i take this back. It looks like he did approve it and i just misunderstood what he said about sending me an email. Unless a judge can tell me differently (with your magical judge powers) it does look like he approved it

Keep in mind, ENworld was wonky for a bit and may have chased him off. Now that things seem to be back to normal, he'll likely find his rhythm again.
[MENTION=54810]renau1g[/MENTION] come out and play eh.


Side note: Welcome back treex! Happy to see Kruor running amok.

And I'm glad to be back! Frankly, Kruor is my favourite. All my other characters seem to pale in comparison and I suck at being a pirate D:

A quick question: what was the ruling on using newly published material? Because Dragon 416 has finally released some support for the vampire through some neat-o magical items. None of them seem broken so far, so I was wondering whether I can start putting them on my wishlist/buy one or two.

New published material IIRC has a 1 month cooldown period to detect possible imbalances and discuss proposals for houseruling or banning them.

Oh good. Dragon 416 was last month's release, I believe. Can someone confirm?

And...BAAAH. I'm 200gp short of buying anything in that list :<

Speaking again about ki focuses, let's see if I understood it correctly. When you make a Weapon attack and you also have a Ki fous you're attuned to, you have the choice of drawing on the ki focus magic or the weapon's magic, this meaning enhancement bonuses, extra crit damage and effects, properties, item powers of only one of the items for that particular attack (not mixing and matching) and so on. This is clear.

What about feats, though? If I'm making a weapon attack with a hammer and have a Ki focus, can you use Superior implement bonuses, or Ki focus expertise or Bludgeon expertise? The wording suggests that you can draw only from the magic, not the feats. Does that mean that you can't use Ki focus related feats unless you're using Implement attacks?
 

Feats apply whenever their qualifications are met. For instance, let's say you're using a club with a +1 magic ki focus and have Bludgeoning expertise. If you're making a weapon attack with a bludgeoning weapon (in this case you are), then the feat applies, even though you're using your Ki Focus for its +1 enhancement bonus and crit effects.

I am the DM of a game that has stalled out, Auction House.

It was going pretty well until I had to take a few weeks off due to family issues. I tried to start it up again a few weeks ago but only got about half the players to respond.

Now that the holidays are coming and the beginning of next year promises to be busy for me at work, I think it best to just abandon the adventure.

The adventure never got a judge, so I need someone to help wrap it up and give the players their rewards.

The party was in the middle of a skill challenge that they were likely going to fail IMO, so I'm not sure how I should award XP, if any for that encounter as even though it didn't look to good for the party, it wasn't completed.
