4 o'clock it is.

Alith's first flaw (Hauntings) seems rather easy going, but ... OK. What does waking up screaming/being shaken do to hinder you other than RP purposes?

[Dwarmin]

Yeah, it's only a flaw if the GM can bring it up semi-regularly in play to mess with you.

The first one is RP, but I don't think it qualifies for a feat.

The second is really messed up. Wouldn't you be attacking the biggest threat anyway? And, the +5 to spot/search and flanking is two bonus feats by itself.

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Shoot me, I ripped this of a dnd wiki.

[Skyrunner]

Nah, second one's OK. Think about now: If the Lammasu inflicts Serious Wounds on Fool, then Alith might have to attack Lammasu despite it being morally wrong.



Does anyone know the CR of a 14th level Wizard ? :S

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Nope.  And...shaken makes Alith get a -2 penalty on attack rolls, saving throws, ability rolls and skill checks, which might make a difference.

[Skyrunner]

So... The IRC channel #Trailsend is now open for business. Let's chat about the Random Encounter(s), and how you feel about fighting against Large Giant Bee, Ghost Celestial Queen Giant Ant, Large Fiendish Giant Ant Soldier, and Polar Bear. Which is one of the many random things the generator has spit out.

Spoiler: Haphephobia (click to show/hide)

Thenash has lived his life killing others, and hiding from sight. He came to enjoy being alone. When it comes to others even so much as touching him he either avoids them, or becomes hostile depending on how familiar they are.

Characters with haphephobia will recoil instinctively when touched by another person, interrupting actions such as bandaging or laying of hands unless a melee touch attack is made against the character. A character may prevent this with a DC 20 + 1/2 character level Will save. Characters with this flaw must also make a Will save (DC 10 + 1/2 characer level) in order to touch anyone.

This flaw only applies to living subjects.

Grants a feat.

This was ripped from D&D Wiki, but it looked like a realistic flaw for my character.

[The Fool]

I suppose the goblin warned us.

1. Good session. I don't think too many things went wrong, and if they did I didn't notice.

2. You need to figure out what provokes and what doesn't. The wizard was foolish to run up to us, and use a spell at an arms length away.

3. I can pick some of them off, but I can't work on the ballistae users until I'm in sneak attack range. Everyone else should rush in. Even with so many operators the ballistae can only fire every 2 rounds. We should be able to force a hole in their line before the next shot.

[Skyrunner]

Hmmm... yes. The provoking thing ... I need to reread that.

The goblin wizard probably did the right thing. I was thinking, 'Okay, lets use Cone of Cold!', which means he does need to run up. Then, I realized he had one 6th level slot, so he changed it to Chain Lightning, which doesn't team kill.

Also, I think the ballistae can shoot every 3 rounds, because it takes 2 rounds to load.



PS: How much XP do you need to level? :3

[The Fool]

I'm 4000 short, but I missed the first test encounter.

[Skyrunner]

Did you count the 3200 XP for people who didn't join?

[The Fool]

No I didn't. So I'm 800 short.

[SeriousConcentrate]

Dwarmin and I (and maybe Elf?) leveled up. ^^^ Let's see... I need to dive into the handbook, see if I get a feat or not for level 10, such stuff...

LEVEL-UP ADJUSTMENTS
11 HP (Forgot until just now, actually 14 HP due to +3 Constitution modifier)
5 Skill points (4 to bring Search up 2 ranks, 1 to bring Intimidate up 1 rank)
BAB increase to +10/+5 (+14/+9 due to modifiers)
Damage Reduction increases to 2/-.

OTHER ADJUSTMENTS
Speed should actually be 40; Elven speed is 30, but being a Barbarian adds 10 (if wearing medium or lighter armor and not bearing a heavy load), which I wasn't taking into account. ^^^;
Also, to answer the questionnaire ('cause I know I hate it when I ask my players for feedback and don't get it ):

How was the session?
As with the two before, I've been having fun with it. ^^^ It sucks that Elf had to leave early due to timezone issues, but Dwarmin's a good friend, and Fool's pretty cool too. You run a style like I prefer, where most of the time the tone is light (although it can get serious when it needs to) and things are biased more towards trying to make for interesting character interactions rather than just action all the time. (For example, the moral dilemma with the Lamassu, implementing Thenash's phobia of being touched into the encounter and the healing afterwards (bonus points to Fool for immediately running to go bathe the area in unholy water; that had me chuckling :3), etc.)

Things to improve on?
Too early to call, yet. We've played three sessions, but I consider the first dungeon/session more of a trial to get acquainted with the rules and MapTools and everything rather than a serious play session. You've already gotten better (at handling both the rules and MapTools) since then, though. ^^^

Ideas on how to obliterate the goblin army?
I'm thinking I can take a five-foot step northeast from my current position without provoking an AoO, which may get me out of the ballista's firing radius but more importantly sets it up so that if I can one-shot the gobbo wizard, I can cleave and deal damage to another goblin as well. With luck, the next round I could finish him off and cleave again assuming another gobbo ran up to me, etc. Plus, I have three uses of rage now due to the rest, so I can expend one of those for some extra damage and HP.

[Criptfeind]

Does anyone know the CR of a 14th level Wizard ? :S

It would be 14.
