Os, what would the appropriate craft skill for crafting robots (in general, not machine minions obviously) but not mecha?
Anything not related to hard metal/stone. Craft (doll) may be best to play off the maid theme, craft (puppet) too.
I almost went for Doll Judgement but decided it would be too much of a hassle.
Let's play the game of "Did I go too far?"
Well right off I'm getting rid of my +3 dodge bonus to AC, let's get that AC back down into the 20's.
WinA Fire Giant - I fly around and plink him to death. My AC and Attack rolls kick his ass.
A Young Blue Dragon - I pass the breath weapon save on a 3 but don't have evasion. My machine minion a lot better ranged attack but if the thing is over 70 feet away I hit less than 50% of the time. This is a battle of attrition that I'm pretty sure I win.
A Bebilith - I beat him but pretty much only because I'm flying. His DR and his horrible grappling would rip me apart even with my robot horsie.
A pair of Mind Flayers - I am stunned and my horse acid breathes them to death. Saved by my horse.
6 Trolls - Flying acid breathing horse.
DrawAn evil 10th level cleric with a big pile of 1HD human skeletons tagging along - With gear and buffs and whatnot? I honestly don't know.
LossA Vrock - I'm going to assume that long range telekinesis is the name of the game here. There is nothing that I can do about that, my mount and I fly very slowly.
A lot of Shadows - After suggesting the debuff to Arsenal weapons there is nothing that I can do here.
Looks like I need to do some toning down. Hmm...
Edit: I think that my biggest problems are the 46% miss chance from my Lunar Dial stance and the fly speed. I think I'm the only party member with a fly speed.
