No interested replies? Wow. If I were about half my size in every dimension I'd buy it myself.

I'd be down with that on the occasions I happen to be PCing at the same event you're attending. Most definitely! And if it's a case of the more who take you up on your offer the better, then I may while NPCing, too.

Closing in on the levels? I had no idea your character was approaching 27th; kudos, man! After that convo we had at the cafe I'm pretty well convinced to wait for Riposte before advancing my column past the 5/5/3/2/1 it's at right now, and that would mean 27th level to get through a 4 column...

Well, this is my thread (can I call something mine if it's hosted on someone else's website in a forum set up by someone else and dedicated to something that isn't mine?) and I condone the breakdown, seeing as the original topic has been sortof addressed. And you're ALL nerds.

TOTALLY fits the character concept, so I do believe I'm going for it. Means I'm going to want to start with a good deal more than 15 build, but the character won't be ready for a long while, anyway, so that can be done. Thanks for the advice, guys.

So I've been wondering: just how useful is the ability to repair armor in 30 seconds? For those not in the know, it's available to master blacksmiths (that's 20 ranks of the blacksmith skill), and I'm considering playing one as my secondary. The advantage is not needing to sit out of a fight...

Bought. SOOOO gonna read it all night in lieu of sleep. Poop, the download didn't actually work. The file I got is unreadable. Oh well, the website says they'll email it to anyone who has any trouble, so my request for such has been sent. Waiting in anticipation...

Heheh, yeah, my first event was in New Jersey, and I came with a heck of a group, 3 of whom were OOG friends I hang with often. The SECOND event I couldn't get anyone to come with me to HQ, but I was determined that I must go. I did, and even though nobody had any clue who I was I had such a...

Holy crap I MUST find a way to be there! That sounds like the right ingredients for awesome.

Hm, you're right about it being cheaper to go shortsword/spear instead of shortsword/staff. However, the staff skill is already paid for, and at maybe 28th level it will be necessary for Oak of the Arcane (which looks like a good, good idea for my character at that point). Also, very...

So a 5th or higher level-equivalent monster can render a 2nd level character ineffective once per life? Sounds fine by me, as that monster was probably sent in-game as part of an encounter designed to challenge characters MUCH higher than 2nd level, and as such the 2nd level character was in...

Sounds like your armor inspections are painful affairs: "Hold still, I haven't even done the rhinoceros test yet!"

My snake already has some rad armor that maxes his armor limit. This is going to be for a fighter (dwarf is very likely), hence the quest for 3 pt material.

I put a few nerdly bits on my Christmas list, with the website. If nobody springs for them, I will simply make a gift of them for myself.

If someone has 100 build and only spends up to the cap, what happens to the rest of the build? Characters maintain continuity across chapters, right? So you'd have to never spend that extra build ever, right? Soooo... what's the point of even having that extra build? I'm confused.

Having recently junked an old stainless steel stove, I still need to get rid of the oven door and vent hood. Stainless sheet is pricey right now, but I'd just LOVE to make some armor out of it. I have absolutely no practical experience with working steel, other than welding it, and no tools...

You know what? When I go to visit Frisco in the next summer or so, I'm hoping it falls on one of your event days, just to show up and be a surprising East Coast mofo like that.

I'd love to give pole-arm a shot. Get 33 build for the very first event by back-and-forward blanketing, then build a High Orc swinging 6's. Holy jeebus that's alot of damage for a newbie!

Matt, that sounds like a very well-reasoned description. 2 for the upper arms/shoulders, 4 for the chest, 1 for a third of the back. Is the master-craft and in-genre armor thing mostly a seat-of-your-pants estimate when it comes time to actually eye someone up at the logistics table and hand...

PvE combat has the advantage of a throttle. If it's getting out of hand it can be throttled back by whoever's running NPC camp that day. PvP combat can be throttled back, too, by the players, but sometimes that could end up being cheesy, where it's obvious that you're making an excuse NOT to do...
