It's like a not as good at getting info version of Sage. Except they can throw 10 magic and Sage can swing 10 with a higher charge time...in heavy armor. The armor doesn't make the skill any better, frankly. Half the expansion skills have horrible downsides. Using Study the Foe to throw 'ten damage...

Dani and I have talked about this at great length, both oog and during game breaks with other players (and GMs from both chapters). The balancing act of the "powerful versatility" of being able to choose different potions and spell effects at the beginning of every event is that it has to ...

Like I said, I'm just commenting on a rule that kind of makes me shake my head, but wanted to have a calm conversation about it (which I have to say that love the fact we've been able to have one). And as Travis aptly said, comparing what a very high level character with what a low-level character c...

Oh, I understand you. Cooldown makes an arcane useless 'later', and casting times made them useless 'now', which is sort of a trade-off, absolutely. But on alot of the spells, it's comparing apples to oranges. The sort of break I see happens when comparing spells to the old magic system, when they a...

Now I haven't played an arcane, ever. So I haven't came across much of the new rules for such a character. But for my new WinterHaven character, I had been planning a Sage/Arcane(through discipline). But some things have been irking me about spells that are keeping me apprehensive about playing such...

Or, for fun, the Sage with assassin- which noone expects, waits at the back cleaning his or her fingernails, and then walks up to the warrior and swings "1 Vorpal Magic Knockout". Which.... as far as I know, can only be stopped by using a shield, or resist magic. Because even if blocked by...

I'm just not sure why Warriors need to be a damage soak and have great damage output. Rhul has to rage just to get up to to 2 damage (as there is no way to boost dual fists , though you can easily boost dual and single weapons all sorts of ways).... but I get along just fine. I always went with the ...

I agree. Warriors don't need to be able to swing over 3. Swinging for four, even when needing to use multiple skills to do so, is completely unnecessary. Especially when it takes a Rogue (even if it is a basic skill/ not taking special equipment into effect) a five-count to swing 4. I always saw the...

(Sorry, Away from Comp for awhile) (To Aurora) "Hmph. Yeah..... Avenguard. Rylls and I came here looking for greener pastures, you could say." (Garritt looks around, and starts shivering. He didn't notice the cold when he came barging out, but now his skin is pale enough that his scars are...

When Dallid casts sooth on Garritt, the flames wreating his hand gutter away until they disappear completely. He draws a great breath deep into his lungs and lets it out through his nose. He looks around again at those present. He still looks gruff and angry, but it's a low simmer that seems to be ...

Considering I can almost walk there, I can likely make it. Which incidentally is a plus as I have all the tarps if we want some cave involvement.


Right now I can;t see a problem with any scheduling on my part, especially as I really want to play Crowley again.

In the night, Garritt was dreaming. In his dream he was a younger man, perhaps by half a decade. He was enjoying himself on a nameless beach, walking in the surf alongside a woman. She was attractive, balancing a feminine grace with the confident rough and tough feel of someone used to ways of a so...

With all the talk about improving warriors (like they really need it, other than replacing some poor expansion skills ) I almost wish there was a way for Rhul to ever swing for more than 'one', or 'two' if raging. (If only out of simple jealousy towards any of the other warriors out there and their ...

(In response to the last sentence Esmerelda gave Garritt, he raises his hands in mock surrender) "Fair enough, fair enough. You're turning into the kind of royalty I like, you know that? (he smiles) But just as seriously, mi'lady. Have a care after dark, at least. We've been waylaid several tim...

Garritt stared wide-eyed at the figure as it screamed out the door, and then snapped back to the situation in the tavern common when he heard sounds of steel being drawn. He frowns, and looks into his ale. "Ok, I'll grant you that was startling and maybe more than a little unsettling on severa...
