Kartakass: Beginnings OOC Thread

[NeoTiamat]

Crikeys you people are fast. So hot drow chick and near re-dead zombie.

Might I also propose that from now one, we name random monsters, or at least give them a number or something? I.e. Zombie 1, Zombie 2, Zombie 3, in the OOC stuff at least. It should drastically reduce confusion.

Will post shortly, I need to hustle off to class.

Yes you are right Ail because you did the spell as 3rd spell level, I was talking about 5th. Sorry.

This is the up to date site I use.

ON another note I thought the Priestess would be hard to kill, but T did a crit and she died LOL. The next post I do will confirm that

I'll know better next time to make the villains more powerful so you can all die horrible deaths!

The drow priestess was pretty damp, who casts a spell before a fighter with 2 blades! She has gotten the attack of opportunity + the normal attacks!

The zombie is dead? Or I should edit my post so Van hasn't casted magic missile?

Not dead.

And I did not state who went first between the Priestess and Tarlyn. She was first this round. She only attacked him once with her spell how is that attack of opportunity + normal attacks?

[VAN]

When you cast a spell before someoneyou get attack of opportunity. It doesn't matter that you play first.

So the Priestess got the attack of opporttunity, do her spells and then she gets 2 Tarlyn's normal attacks.

Yes and she is dead now

[VAN]

So the zombie has survived ah? I think we should kill it, it should have almost no HP. It has gotten 1/2 fireball, 1 seqaring light and 2 magic missiles! It's a record!

The attack of opportunity rules are a little weird.

Casting a spell provokes one, but making a touch attack with one does not.

So if the drow priestess had already cast it before Tarlyn was in range to make an attack, he does not get an AoO. He still does not get one if she walks within range to attack him with the touch spell. (The rules say that a touch attack is a realistic threat so the defender has to treat it as seriously as a melee weapon attack, hence no AoO.)

However, if she cast it on her own hands when Tarlyn was within melee range, then he definitely gets the AoO when she casts it. (NOT when she makes the touch attack.)

Hence, dead priestess

Very true. BUt I am not a rules fiend or will I be very adamant about some of the rules in 3.5. we could spend days discussing a battle or feat or skill. I prefer to play and be lenient towards some of the rules ....

Sound good?

Hey, Tarlyn, this is about the question I raised way back in this thread about healing spells.
I am Clr2 with Healing domain, so I can cure you as if I were level 3. But for that I would spend 3 spell points instead of 1 (or 2). I guess that's what they meant by this system leaving Healing domain priests at a disadvantage. Any way, there's no reason for me to cast CLW at level 2 to get 1d8+2 when I can get two spells at level 1 to get 2d8. So I edited the +2 bonus I wrote in the main thread and made a second roll of 1d8+1 = 1 + 6 = 7. Ok? That still costs the same 2 spell points.

But, in practice, Healing Domain is completely useless

Valerian slashes at the zombie once, twice, as it wanders about, his dull grey longsword gleaming in the moonlight. Still, as a Darkonian, he could recognize the signs. The zombie was no threat now.

As the intensity of battle began to wear off, questions formed. One drow was a curiosity, two, now, were the kind of coincidence that really didn't happen in the Grand Scheme.

It was a random choice of encounters I have on a list. Sorry. For once it is a coincidence!

YEs I will from now on. So when we fight for example those 25 werewolf lords in KArtakasss I 'll number them 1 to 25, ok?



J/K!

Good enough for me. I always say the DM is god, and the players can just give a helping hand to discuss one point or another.

Not god but I mean we are all adults so that is all that matters
