Living 4th Edition Discussion Thread

Oh, and fair warning: Icarnation's personality is going to be Auron's with a philosophy much like Jolee Bindo. He is, after all, one of the Five.

Just quick stuff.

I've stickied two threads, the official character list and the character creation guide. The latter we might want to redo, since it was created by Graf and not by the Facilitator account, but it will do for now. I still haven't figured out how to add more moderators.

You're 100% correct, I just didn't get it done yesterday.

Just so it's been mentioned Halford's adventure looks great. You should have an excellent time!

I think we should use Approval by Acclimation for a lot of this stuff (this is the system Cov came up with back in the old thread.)

I move to decide, by Approval by Acclimationl to approve the following proposals:
Proposal 1

Large weapons and armor cost the same and weight the same* as medium sized counterparts. This shall last until WotC ever puts out errata on the subject: then we revisit.​

*=(large creatures get a strength bonus of +2, which is about 20 pounds of carrying capacity, if you double the weight of platemail? It weights 100 lbs. instead of 50lbs which is around 5 points of strength; of course large creatures can also logically carry more so lets just say that its all the same.
Anyway trying to pretend it's logical would potentially produce a cascade of fiddly little changes → a large creature can logically use a medium candle, but not a medium bedroll.)

Proposal 2

Errata from WotC will be adopted unless there is objection. Objection shall take the form of someone posting to the current active "general discussion thread" and emailing the judges and saying "I have an objection")​

 

[Halford]

Well I'm back, game called on account of injury, don't ask *sigh*

Anyway, I checked, but did not approve Tander for nerdytenor. Made several pretty standard corrections, but I have two problems which stopped me approving him.

The main problem is that Tander is a cleric who does not know who his god is. I find this problematic as it would seem difficult to pray to a god if you don't know which one is granting you powers. I would also like to see more of the settings gods explored. I think it would be relatively easy to maintain the heart of Tander's background and allow him to know his god.

Overall I am not inclined to approve it, but I felt this issue should be put to the group at large.

I did not feel this was an issue only for judges so I thought I'd post here for input, and so nerdytenor can respond, etc.

Oh and you lso need to select you additional at will power Nerdytenor, I am fairly certain you cannot hold onto it.

Graf: I added a Ritual Book to Brudd's sheet as per the Ritual Casting class feature which gives you a free Ritual Book and two mastered rituals Gentle Repose and another 1st level ritual, for which I took Animal messenger. Just FYI since you have approved Brudd.

Thanks for the heads up. That's fine, of course. I'm gonna grind apps for an hour (and hopefully not miss anything too big).

By the way Graf, I noticed you haven't entered the Hanged man ^

I agree with the acclimation idea, and I support both of those proposals.

Note that bugbears and minotaurs can use medium or large weapons, but use medium armor, so don't go "fixing" bugbear or minotaur armor.

Also, here's:

Proposal 3

The Enchant Item ritual may be used for resizing magic weapons, in addition to magic armor as described in the PHB.​

Uhm... some erratas are not so immediately agreeable like others. For example, there's been quite a discussione wether to approve the stealth errata or not.

So... many... character...submissions...

You can simply say "I object to the stealth errata" and then it's not approved by acclimation we have a vote. The point is that some large amount of errata is just not objectionable.
(can I tell you how keen I am to avoid voting on each little errata correction? soooooo keen )

PS does TWF (the feat) add to damage from twin strike with scimitars? I think yes... right?

Only the first:

Attack: Strength vs. AC (melee; main weapon and off-hand weapon)

gain a +1 bonus to damage rolls with your main weapon.

Approved Woe Chinua for Dunamin.
