How would one properly utilize the bard's countersong, distraction, and fascinate?
Tyler Cruz
What if the "Trade Language" isn't even a spoken language at all, but rather the character is proficient at grunting, gesticulating and generally showing their interest in buying a good for so much cash.
That way a person *has* to learn the local language if they want to hold a conversation, but anyone who knows Trade can "function" in a foreign society.
Benjamin Allen
Necromancers are great, they can talk to the dead to emulate divination, they can use negative energy and cold to both blast and battlefield control, and of course they can summon hordes of the damned to emulate a conjuration summoner.
They are jacks of all trades, one of the many reasons the dread Necro was so damn good.
Daniel Reed
A. Trade them out for an archetype. B. Forget about them until the one encounter in the whole campaign they become relevant.
Brayden Brown
We could totally use a Dread Necro port to have the massive undead pet though. Closest is having LotN and the feat that turns the AC into an undead, but it's not the same thing by far.
Tyler Peterson
Except that as written, you get +4 to all the social skills for being the grunting guy.
Grayson Williams
>massive undead pet It didn't help this guy out much...
Isaiah Scott
Well that just makes sense! A man who knows how to grunt real good and wave his arms around will tend to be a good merchant. Have you ever seen Snake Oil Salesmen? They're flailing all over the place!
Hunter Cox
Yeah but it's not '+4 to these checks when making business deals', it's +4 in general.
You'll be more likely to seduce the pants off the queen of the buffalo women than the guy who actually speaks her language, just by grunting and flailing around.
Hudson Powell
>You'll be more likely to seduce the pants off the queen of the buffalo women than the guy who actually speaks her language, just by grunting and flailing around.
And this isn't true in real life... How?
Jason Harris
To be fair, that was an E6 necromancer while facing a doppleganger with at least 13 class levels in spellcasting.
Juan Turner
Some people are just into that
Chase Adams
>dat subuttle jab at DA CLUB culture
Nicholas Gutierrez
Ertw dread necromancer and warmage when?
Jaxson Taylor
What is the best sorcerer bloodline excluding arcane? Draconic is nice because it gives you Fly and mage armor but what other ones?
Colton Lee
Honestly, just those two. There's very little mechanical benefit to the other bloodlines that's not outperformed by Draconic or Arcane. I mean, I guess if you're austic mouth breathing sperg you could pick one for RP purposes, but you don't want to be THAT guy, right?
Jace Ramirez
Refreshing lfg
ForeverGM looking to be a player for once in his miserable life. Please no Magical Realm.
Did some more Spellburst Savant homebrew. Broom Jockey is a mobility/flight/speed based spellburst savant with a melee theme.
This is the alpha so feedback is highly appreciated. Among other things, I'm a little iffy if it's got enough melee boost to be functional in combat as most of it's stuff is about mobility and it lost some nova spell getting there. Still, Flyby Attack works nicely with Wave Motion Strike (As it allows a standard action, NOT just an attack)
Jack Williams
Any one on from dragon game? How was it?
Jason Jackson
What kind of magic executions would be ideal to be reserved only to traitors and regicides?
Carson Jenkins

Joseph Morris
DG2 player who read the logs here. They had some fun. Snack cakes were eaten, assassinations were foiled, sofas were destroyed.
Logan Gutierrez
The ass was fat, butt not the ass your thinking of
Joseph Baker
I've met a good number of people here that don't push their fetishes on others like someone without self control. so I'm comfortable with my chances.
Michael Walker
The Black Book.
The traitor's blood is used to write their vile deeds in a great tome of flayed skin that binds their soul to recant their treachery, torture and execution forever. The Grimoire is the only literature a traitor awaiting execution is allowed to read.
Juan Williams
Is it useful to have a dog?
Lucas Brooks
No. You can't stop me. No one can stop me!
Jackson Miller
Depends what you want to do. Arcane is the best bloodline because it's always good, the rest are all specializations.
Lucas Adams
Dogs are adorable and protective, their bones can be broken fairly quickly so make sure they aren't on the front lines when the tables has turnned.
Jacob Brooks
>:O
Angel Stewart
There are a few one trick pony specialist bloodlines out there. Fey comes to mind for kitsune enchanters and A couple of bloodlines are ok for blasting thanks to the + damage.
Ayden Jackson
I CAN STOP YOU
Adrian Thompson
You will try.
Gavin Foster
Blaster sorcerer to be specific.
Cooper Morgan
I might be doing an SoM playtest game once the full playtest comes out, interested?
Luis Bailey
Only 2hu deals in absolutes!
Jeremiah Long
Draconic bloodline is nice because it adds +1 per damage die to the relevant energy type. Elemental is okay since you can swap out the damage type to your elemental type to overcome elemental resistances.
John Thompson
Thoughts on the newest applicants for the ruse cruise
So /pfg/, who's your favorite Ruse Cruiser? I'm personally partial to Amuzak, the Magus with two swords.
John Myers
If you think about it, aren't they all joke games? Most people spend half their time memeing a meme in them anyway.
Jason Sanchez

James Cooper
I need advice on a character to make for this.
Should I go full ham, or try to play it straight? Should I make a character that is a satire of OC (Original Characters?)
Adrian Ross
Play it straight
Juan Russell

Chase Lewis
What I kinda wanna see is someone, like, make a parody of all those deviantart pictures where Sonic discovers Christianity or whatever.
An oc donutsteel that constantly takes breaks to remind everyone how awesome jesus is.
Noah Wilson
That second to last one is accurate.
Easton Thompson
That's exactly what I was going to make, user.
And he's absurdly muscular with huge prominent nipples and it's all uncomfortable.
Hunter Cox
Reach for the stars, user.
Liam Price
>Paper is listed with a break DC of 5 >A 10 strength character fails to rip a simple piece of paper in half 20% of the time. what?
Nathaniel Foster
Give me character concept ideas that revolve around being a duo. Me and my girlfriend are starting a rise of the runelords campaign soon and I feel like we'd have fun being able to synergise with each other somehow.
The campaign will be pretty vanilla as far as I can tell and we're both semi-new to the rules.
Jason Peterson
Spellcaster/Ranged Person and a huge disruption based tank that keeps people away from their waifu.
Levi James
Buffslut and Meatshield
Angel Hall
Take 10 strength check.
Father/Daughter duo, or better yet she's a Paladin and you're her Cleric charge, or vice versa.
Ethan Foster
She plays a sorcerer with the enlarge person spell. You play a hulking barbarian with a high CON score. She buffs you at the start of every combat and you can joke about sexy times during down time with that spell.
Chase Jackson
So Momoko from Ghost Stories?
Nathaniel Mitchell
I need an outline I can bucket fill.
David Brown
Here's what you do, you make it really awkward by playing her character's father. You can play an occultist, a researcher into old Thasillon, and she can play a haunted oracle uniquely attuned to ghosts of Thasillon
Jackson Turner
Like that except even more TOTALLY RADICOOL.
Justin Thomas
What if they're both into having her call him daddy, user?
It'll only get awkward for everybody else
Daniel Peterson
Someone give me a smol succubus girl picture so I can apply to The Great Bamboozling
Angel Garcia
Whats funny is that the dude might NEED it because his normal package is too small for adequate stimulation.
Blake Kelly
Google Aht from Radiant Historia.
Michael Russell
Dude's got a micro-dick?
Logan Powell
or a 4-inch long one
Matthew Flores
Use this one.
Owen Bell
>Sinspawn starts hitting it from behind >She moans, "harder, daddy."
Ryder Miller
Aegis and a smaller Onslaught Kineticist turret. The Aegis takes the Passenger upgrade and becomes the main source of mobility and defenses, though still quite capable of nasty hits if using the customzations and POW access right. Meanwhile the partner on the back can handle some area and utility effects (like Void's gravity line or anti-regen aura) so that both lay down horrific firepower from above in various deadly fashion.
Alternatively an Iron Titan can transform and take a 'mount' upgrade. You can be the reaver jetbike to her succubus pilot.
Nolan Gray
I'd prefer to keep the daddy stuff off the table. Good ideas in practise though
Was originally going me as a brawler and her as a witch for debuffs.
Good idea since we'll end up ERPing as these characters too.
Thanks anons, other ideas appreciated too.
Isaiah Barnes
Should this character have a totally warped outlook on sex and relationships? Madonna/Whore Complex cranked up to 11?
He will forever search for a boyfriend-free girl he can introduce to his Jesus juicer.
Carter Gomez
Why not just play as two best friends who happen to adventure together and kick butt?
David Bailey
same thing.
Thomas Harris
You're a valiant Paladin, she's a lewd witch trying to bring him to sin.
You're the meat, she's the buff, and now you can innuendo all day with her getting to be all confident and sexy, trying to turn you on and lead you off the path of righteousness.
Jackson James
Do +1d6 stance damage boosts only work for discipline weapons or does it grant bonus damage as long as it doesnt exclude your weapon group/type?
Adrian Sullivan
>Enlarge Person >Bull's "Strength" >Haste ooh boy
Bentley Kelly
Four inches is not micro, it's just disappointing.
The ideal length is 7 inches and girthy, anything more is for the minority of girls that yearn for men built like horses and with emissions like that of a donkey.
Christopher Stewart
I think that might be casting the parody a bit wide (also I don't think chris-chan was one of the christfags but I could be mistaken).
Carter Morales
Only works for discipline weapons, boyo.
That said, everyone uses Elemental Flux for spears or swordsmen when it's meant for monks, soooooo
Justin White
Something, something, one grapples to pin and the other wails on the pinned opponent.
Something something, two rogues who set up flanking for each other. Take a dip in rogue or dip in other classes. One might be a bruiser while the other is more finesse.
Eli Phillips
You're right, it's been a while since I've checked out those OCs.
You know what? I'm going to devote the afternoon to researching these abominations, open my heart and mind to them and try to think like one.
John Jones
Something something, teamwork feats.
Josiah Nguyen
Wizard and Cleric. Suddenly, every other member of the party is expendable and the two of you can complete the AP by yourselves if need be.
Aaron Williams
Something something, alchemist and bard. One plays the music and the other delivers the crescendos (bombs).
Jeremiah Collins
Lameeka's ass wasn't the ass in question? How is this possible! ?
Camden King
Something something, skald and barbarian
Maybe savages from the same tribe who are out to save the tribe or something
Other people are similarly developing powerful asses
Camden Martinez
>Rubato gets E Flux >light blades and thrown weapons >meant for monks You're also wrong.
They all have specifics, iirc. Scarlet Einhander needs you to be one-handing, Reaching Blade is only melee, Pugilist is unarmed or discipline weapons. If you fill the specifics then whether or not it's a discipline weapon doesn't matter.
Dylan Fisher
Skald and barbarian don't work because the skald's song doesn't let you use rage powers, and if you use your own rage the morale bonuses don't stack. Bard and barbarian would be better.
Matthew Anderson
So primal fury's stance of aggression works on all weapons, even bows and crossbows?
