Recruiting -- S@squ@tch's Against the Giants - Team Gold

[rangerjohn]

Could I have an update on what is needed? Either as characters to take over or roles that need to be filled, thanks.

What do you have in the team black that needs run? I took over a character onece for a game of industy gothica, and that game went really well! I am adaptable. i will prepare to be assimulated ...(resistance is futile)

I'm not 100% sold on the samurai at all so if someone would suggest a better needed class or combination of classes I'll be more than happy to listen

For team Gold, I opted for the Duskblade as it seemed that the group had little in the way of arcane casters, and I wanted to fill both a warrior and caster role. Someone recently made a Bard, which is nifty (I was going to go that route but another player had the "sage" role filled out quite well), but the only "pure" arcane caster is a specialist of some kind. I might suggest a Sorcerer with some panache (maybe some Heritage and Reserve feats). Really though, it's hard to decide what's needed given that our group has swelled to (I believe) eight PCs, so pick something you'd enjoy and play that.

I've not played many 'high level' casters but at low(er) levels they seem to have a hard time getting their spells to effect things with decent to good saves. And without excellent stats to combat monsters higher saves makes them less than happily effective in my opinion.

That being said I LOVE warlocks as a good alternative to this fact places above, but even they at higher levels still have problems with DC's and overcoming SR. I thought about playing one here actually, but I'm going to playing one soon in another game. It's been a while sense I've played a decent meat shield, thus why I made the samurai.

@ScottDewar: Team Black, with gladiusnp's take-over of Thanor, only has Yoggrith, the NE halforc favored soul that is currently being dm-ran.

Team Gold has only the following PC's being played:

Lvl 8 gnome Archivist
mixed level githzerai rogue/monk
mixed level dwarf rogue/fighter/dragonmarked heir (at least I think he is still in the game)

The following PC's have departed:

lvl 8 masterspecialist/master transmogrifist
lvl 8 druid/warshaper
lvl 8 fighter/warblade
lvl 8 dwarf cleric

So, there is plenty of room on team gold to explore.

I hope I get in.. I LOVE to get into games and get to experience pc interaction within the adventure or world around them... I LOVE finding treasure and items in a game which on PbP's you don't see enough of. People focus so much on leveling and how slow that is that the need for interesting and well placed items to balance level play is most always overlooked heh.

 

[Scott DeWar]

I am looking at "morph" right now. I have to laugh, because i see you had Nac Mac Feegle in your game and he is the original player of the characte I took over in Industyry Gothica's game.

@ScottDewar - between you, me, and the wall, the whole master transmogrifist thing seems a bit unwieldy for me as a DM -- I wouldn't mind seeing that change..

 

[Rathan]

On a side note: Does anyone have or know of a free RELIABLE 3.5 character builder online?

what if I come up with some thing more normal say a wizard-transmuter, human ?

edit:
ok, leaving the coffee shop here soon, so give me a few moments to get home before i can respond. **sigh** so long nectre of the gods.
