[OOC] If Thoughts Could Kill

Moving, moving.

Incidentally, is anyone interested in taking this game at least once or twice to IRC? Maybe just as a test run, now that the holidays have rolled around and a lot of us are free from work or school for the next couple weeks.

I'll withhold judgement until everyone else chimes in. The tricky part is the time zone difference (I'm in Tokyo), although there is some overlap in my morning and your evenings.
 

I foresee difficulties in getting everyone together at the same time for IRC. Not that I have problems with it per see, but my schedule is rather filled and I'm certain others are as well.
 


While on break, I spend less time on the computer. Not only do I have to share, I also find that family concerns consume more time than my schoolwork. My posting rate will be reduced for the next few weeks. Sorry.
 

Happy New Year, Everyone.

I have been slacking this holiday, and I apologize for not setting a restart date in advance. I will resume the game within 24 hours.
 

Since we're supposed to have worked together before, we ought to figure out how we handle splitting up buffs, and what we're about in a fight.

If curious as to how Lysander got a 22 Con as a human with no items that I noticed boosting it. Does he need an Endurance or not? I assume that Rex and Darian can boost their own stats, if need be. William has +2 from an item, making a Bull's Strength a rather poor choice.

Verra and Rex each have ways of making weapons +3. Of our main combatants, I assume Verra will zap his own stuff, or at least his own arrows. Rex has a +2 weapon, Bellus has +1 weapons, and William has +2 weapons.

Verra and Darian have Haste. Since Verra doesn't have to worry about preparing enough Hastes in advance, I reccomend that you talk to him for all your Haste needs. :) Actually, our fighter types use 2 weapons, so extra attack isn't that much of an advantage if battle is already joined. However, if they have to close, they'll be much less effective without haste in the first round, since they need full attack actions. I think it's usually good to haste clerics too, since they can bash people and cast spells at the same time that way.

Darian is capable of casting Gird the Warrior, which adds a +10 armor bonus to AC and a +4 enhancement bonus to attack and damage. Since Bellus has light armor, and weak weapons, I think this spell would help him the most.
 

Actually, you're right - he shouldn't have stats like that. However, after I'd finished creating him with far lower stats, Ashrem commented how much less effective combat-wise my character was compared to his, and I said that was mostly because my stats were lower. No one objected when I asked, so I bumped my stats to about the point-buy being used. I'd be fine with lowering them, of course, if anyone thinks it throws the game off.

Anyway...I'm not going to need buffs for the most part, beyond haste. Lysander will do perfectly fine with psionics alone in combat, so it would be better to use slots for others who would benefit more.
