OotS #469

Here

I gave you everything . . .

Very good stuff.

I like how he seemed surprised that he had evasion. And that he apparently didn't have to move to use it.

Good stuff! Nice to see Belkar getting some karmic backlash for mistreating his play-thing. (Poor li'l skullsy!) Nicer still for Belkar to get so much screen time -- his one-liners are still some of the best things in this comic.

Cheers, -- N

Funny (as usual, BELKAR!!!), but a waste. I liked Skullsy.

There can be only one...

Can anyone else picture the DM saying "Why did I let him use/take that skull?"

So, at least 9 levels of Ranger, then. Huh.

Either that or my personal pet theory that he's Ranger 1 / Rogue X / Barbarian 1.

All in all, decent strip. Needs much more killing, though.

I LOLed at the hobgoblin fears.

I guess that around the time Elan was getting his first level in Dashing Swordsman, Belkar went back to leveling up in Ranger after his dip into Barbarian. Since it looks like the OotS is around 11th or 12th level (since Disintegrate is the biggest spell we've seen them use, and Durkon apparently can't cast Resurrection), I guess Belkar is now a Ranger 9/Barbarian 3 (unless he's a level behind because of multiclassing penalties).

It was a nice return to the "not having to move to use evasion" gag (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0019.html) from early on.
