Anyone please feel free to put down the last skeleton

Melblen_Cairn · « **Reply #481 on:** May 11, 2015, 09:03:33 AM »

So I assume you all are headed out for an extended rest. Will that be in the same spot you left the woman you rescued earlier?

Inspectre · « **Reply #482 on:** May 13, 2015, 06:22:35 AM »

I do believe that is the plan, yes!

Melblen_Cairn · « **Reply #483 on:** May 13, 2015, 08:09:21 AM »

Congratz! you all reach level 2! You all are at 1304 exp.

Will give everyone a few days to level up. I will have to level Shandien, though I think I have his general progression path figured out.

Going with Host of Shields as his level 2 utility which is a daily stance that increases his AC and REF by +2 power bonus. His feat will be White Lotus Defense which will give him an additional +1 to defenses against any enemy he hits with an at will attack. This should boost his chances of not being hit. Plus with his lightning weapon all of his powers can be lightning with a free action so it will benefit well from his racial encounter power.

Woo, level up! Sorry for the not posting, apparently I missed some posts.

If filth fever lady still has filth fever I'll keep tending to her if I can.

Now to figure out what to take for second level...

Edit: Utility power (Shield of Faith) and feat (Power of the Sun) chosen. I'm very insightful.

Beyond amending hp all I need to do is pick a power and a feat right?

Edit: Considering Assassins bane or ethereal stride for utility power.

rod expertise, hidden sniper, improved defenses, improved initiative are in competition for the feat

Now is the time for those of you with more experience to point out where im going wrong

Inspectre · « **Reply #486 on:** May 14, 2015, 06:46:27 AM »

Don't forget to add a +1 level bonus onto your to-hit rolls, initiative rolls, skill rolls, and all of your defenses (the sheet may have done this for you automatically). You get that every even level.

For Galadren, while there is an incredible Seeker utility power that lets him crit on a 19-20, I think I'm going to go for more utility/mobility, so I'm going to take Yield Ground, which is a Ranger Encounter Utility that lets him shift 4 squares and gains a +2 power bonus to all defenses as an immediate reaction to someone running up and punching him in the face (enemy melee attack). I've noticed he tends to get a little too close to the center of the action sometimes.

For a feat, it's a no-brainer - Superior crossbow proficiency, so I can finally make use of that magic item and be awesome!

I also forgot to add his racial bonuses to Perception and Nature - fixed that finally.

If you're looking for recommendations, mine still stand from before.

Rod Expertise, Hidden Sniper, and Improved Defenses are all, I believe, from the Essentials line, so I believe they're not being allowed in this game. Otherwise Improved Defenses is a no-brainer for anyone.

bhu · « **Reply #488 on:** May 14, 2015, 07:43:55 PM »

So Im down to Improved defenses, improved initiative, or implement expertise

Inspectre · « **Reply #489 on:** May 14, 2015, 08:06:05 PM »

Expertise is definitely a feat you will want to pick up at some point.
Particularly since this is a pre-published module by WotC - they have a tendency to use monsters with STUPIDLY high defenses.
Which turns fights into a whiff-fest if you don't have a high-enough bonus on to-hit rolls.

Shadowhunter · « **Reply #490 on:** May 14, 2015, 09:45:50 PM »

Fixed my level up and made sure the link to my sheet is the proper one.

Again, Improved Defenses is essentials, and thus disallowed. So really Improved Initiative or Implement Expertise. Both are great feats for you to have, and likely you'll want both eventually.

As for Dunor, I've updated my level, HP, added a feat, swapped my Daily Power to something less confusing and hopefully more widely useful, and added my Utility Power. I'd say I'm all done!

Nanshork · « **Reply #492 on:** May 15, 2015, 12:52:21 AM »

Unexpected vacation time, I'm leaving tomorrow and I think I'll be back next Friday. No board access until then.

Inspectre · « **Reply #493 on:** May 15, 2015, 06:33:29 AM »

Going to be away this weekend, although it looks like I'm basically done with Galadren's level-up.

bhu · « **Reply #494 on:** May 15, 2015, 07:05:35 PM »

What are your feelings on battle caster defense?

Melblen_Cairn · « **Reply #495 on:** May 16, 2015, 10:41:53 AM »

A good feat if you plan on getting into the thick of things and mixing it up using your ranged or area powers and will take a lot of AoO's. Bare in mind that if your that close though, you will also likely be taking normal attacks on the enemies turn which does not give you the +4 to AC. So you would still need to stick close to a Defender or make sure you are killing the enemies on your turn.

Melblen_Cairn · « **Reply #496 on:** May 17, 2015, 09:10:06 AM »

Looks like everyone has their sheets updated and their selections made. I will put up a summary of the downtime during the rest so we can jump back into it but if you have any particulars during the downtime you would like to get out of the way please post them as well in game. My assumptions will be that you examine any the items you have found and now know all of their powers and can use them effectively and rest while setting a watch.

You extended rest will take you into the wee hours of the morning and it will still be dark when you head back in.

Shadow, I did not see anything on Theo's sheet about the winged lancing dagger you just picked up. Please don't forget you have it

I will let you all figure out who should have all the PoH's and cash.

Also did you all want to begin at the entrance of Level 1 or go back to Level 2 in the dungeon?

Inspectre · « **Reply #497 on:** May 18, 2015, 06:59:47 AM »

I would kinda like to finish level 1 of the dungeon up - doesn't look like much unless it goes off the left side of the screen >>

Shadowhunter · « **Reply #498 on:** May 18, 2015, 09:35:38 PM »

Oh, I did miss to add that. Does that mean you made it into a Lancing Dagger as well? NEAT.

A for where to start, it doesn't matter to me.

Melblen_Cairn · « **Reply #499 on:** May 20, 2015, 12:30:08 PM »

With no one else posting here or in game. I will get the rest of the rest time summed up and start you all at the dungeon's entry chamber on level 1.
