D&D 3.5 and Pathfinder / Re: Recruiting for Roll20 Game: Arcana High
« on: August 08, 2014, 01:40:08 AM »
I'm interested, although I still can't do Sundays, so if that's what everyone wants I'll have to drop out -- sounds like everyone can do Saturday too, though.
I had a long day today and didn't have time to think about a character yet. I'm starting to get a vague idea, but I'll need to see if it comes together tomorrow or something. Also, I've never played in a low-combat PF game before -- I admit that I am someone who enjoys mastering the system and tactically winning battles, although I also enjoy RP.
What's everyone else playing, do we know yet? I tend towards int-based arcane casters or gish myself. Definitely like that whole 'knowledge is power' shtick rather than suddenly gaining powers like a superhero. Although, for a setting like this, the idea of a sorcerer or witch intensely interested in understanding how his powers work might work too...

This sounds interesting! But what day would it be? I'm available Tue, Wed, Fri, and Sat.
Also, if you're not going to use Roll20's voice chat feature, you might want to consider Maptool.

D&D 3.5 and Pathfinder / [PATHFINDER] Searching for powers/spells guides
« on: May 20, 2013, 02:15:05 AM »
There are a few things that it seems like surely must exist, but I'm having trouble finding them via google and handbook indices.
1. A list of wizard spells available that an optimized character should pay attention to. I know Treantmonk's guide covers core, but it's been awhile. Professor Q's guide (https://docs.google.com/document/d/13IZTV59ItNsK63RHQo2XGkjMKiU8LfRu5PCaE3R5lco/edit?pli=1) looks like it might be what I'm looking for, although I'm not sure how up-to-date it is. I fondly remember the days of Treantmonk, CantripN, and Tsuyoshi's school guides. Up-to-date resources like that would be amazingly helpful.
2. Same thing, for psionic powers. Yes, I know that the Pathfinder Psionics vs XPH Psionics (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=182797) FAQ explains which powers were buffed and nerfed compared to their 3.5 versions, but I've been away from primary psionic manifesters for so long I've forgotten what some of the mainstays are I should select in the first place -- also, some of my powers for old builds were from 3.5 supplements which don't exist in PF -- however, PF has also had Psionics Expanded released, which offers lots of new content that needs to be covered!
3. In general, Pathfinder guides for the Psion and, perhaps, the Cerebremancer (How viable is it in PF? Has anyone analyzed it?), especially that include updated material from Psionics Expanded.
Is this stuff out there? Where should I be looking?

Min/Max 3.x / Re: Silly fun with familiars and Shadowcasters!
« on: January 06, 2012, 03:25:50 PM »
I don't really follow how Spell-linked Familiar is particularly advantageous for a Shadowcaster... Although a dual-caster like a Noctumancer might get double use out of the feat with spells and mysteries....
You need to be a 9th level caster to take the feat, so Shadowcaster 6 won't cut it, unless combined with Practiced Spellcaster and more levels.

Hi! I'm the same Scottbert as on the old boards, been optimizing characters since 3.5!
Favorite games: Pathfinder, 4E is cool too. But I'd like to try lots of others!
Other hobbies: Videogames, anime, scifi/fantasy, rationality
Country: USA
I was Scottbert on the Wizards boards too, but I haven't been active since they changed their format and wiped all the old posts.
