Wasn’t Pathfinder made in part by ex-3.5 writers?

Also, he’s a dwarven war cleric. Very tanky while having good heals too. Since he’s teamed with a warlock and a ranger, it has a kind of balance.

Please don’t feed into his stupidity.

Please die…

Also before I force you to commit seppuku what system are you playing? 5e?

Reiraku · 2017-09-04T03:02:30.000Z

Yeah, 5e. Went with the dwarf because i knew our murder hobo party was going get me in situations where i would need the extra CON

We play paper version, not quite official rules but it is still fun.

I mean what system lol. Pretty sure almost all of us house rule shit. Everyone except your average pedantic pfs turd.

I think version 5? I could be wrong.

angelpalm · 2017-09-04T10:33:21.000Z

Yeah you guys are all probably playing 5e if you don’t even know. Fucking new booty.

I can’t really get into 5e, after how I saw they fucked over the rangers animal companion in shit it kinda threw me off. I find it funny that they seemingly did the pathfinder archetype route to try and discourage dipping but people still dip like crazy lol. From what I have seen everyone and their mother dip barbarian because it is so nasty.

They’re working on that. Here’s their unofficial “revised ranger” write up: http://media.wizards.com/2016/dnd/downloads/UA_RevisedRanger.pdf
On the plus side, rangers are stronger and the animal companions scale better. On the downside, no more Pteranodon-riding halfling stupidity.

angelpalm · 2017-09-04T12:08:03.000Z

Yeah that is a huge improvement.

I am having the most fun ever in this D&D game. West Marches campaign.

One of our thieves is on a mission to steal from a mansion. This has erupted into at least two other missions. The local drug dealer is having guard problems. Also, the highborn Lady has just been revealed to be into narcotics.

Love it!

Having my first session as DM on Sunday, we will see how this goes.

Just stay cool, have some prep time before, and when in doubt wing it.
As “some” players will derail what ever you had planned.

Well I will be using the Yawning Portal so if someone is being too much of a dick I can always maguffin them.

My very first session with my current group confirmed this. The DM had detailed notes for like 8 different scenarios on how we’d get out of a surrounded building, which included everything from trying to fight our way out the front and climbing through a window, to more creative solutions like setting the building on fire or blasting a hole in one of the walls. We chose the one option he hadn’t planned for, which in hindsight was a pretty obvious one.

He learned a lesson, I think.

With the “D&D” game I going to run soon, with a heavily edited D20 Modern campaign I am seeing the list of party members form and I going to have so much fun.

I just changed who the END big real villains really are going to be, seeing the player current lineup.
it was going to be Space faring Mindflayers, but I am thinking the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse instead

It’s a heavily edited D20 Modern Urban Arcana, using mostly D&D classes instead of the D20 modern classes.
The setting, the players are all agents of the US Department of Paranormal Affairs, think one part BPRD from Hellboy, one Part Warehouse 13 (or if you prefer the SCP Foundation), with the reach of SHIELD.

We got so far our party consist of
A Human (Highlander) Samurai,
A Human Corporate Espionage Thief (Rouge adapted for modern times),
A Modern day Human Druid/Wizard with fey Blood,
A stranded Time Lord,
one player I am still waiting on to hear what he is making,
and a Human Solder/Rouge (the Phil Colson of the Group).

There first real adventure Hook after being oriented as a single team is stopping the Drow from having their own “Manchurian candidate” from running as President.

So my Horsemen are later going to be

War: a Highlander style Immortal whose badassery got recorded as the literal Original Horsemen of War.
Pestilence: a Blighter (a Corrupt Druid that for completely the opposite of a Druid should be) down to Captain Planet levels of Pollution (She’s literally toxic to the environment, grass just dies under her feet, she also radioactive)
Famine: A Lich Time Lord
Death: Undecided, possibility going with a Half Red Dragon Drow
Apocalypse: I am thinking maybe En Sabah Nur, Apocalypse from Marvel Comics.
