I don't think we govern Josh's private life just yet. Ok, snarkiness aside I don't get the problem so feel free to ignore my post. Anyway, as fearrabit mentioned Josh doesn't have access from home to his work account here. Thats why he doesn't post here during times he isn't at the office. Generally I wouldn't expect a full answer on the problem till later last week. For the same reason that it was posted on friday and its the weekend. I think most are somewhat put off by that his preferred forum to discuss PoE outside of work is behind a paywall. I can understand why he doesn't want to spend his weekends doing work stuff, but it can be a bit frustrating to hear about tidbits secondhand and not being able to easily find them without forking over 10bux.

In general, I find Pathfinder fairly easy to explain....until you factor in the various combat maneuvers, bonus spells per day, and certain class mechanics. IMO, PoE has some stuff that is unintuitive, like interrupt and engagement, but once those are properly explained and proper feedback is given things should be easy to understand. When a group of people I play Pathfinder with looked through 2e AD&D, they were baffled. So for the uninitiated, PoE will probably be a lot easier to understand than BG.

What about NWN?

There should be a fighting game where the final boss is Hurlwife and you free Hurlshot from her corrupting clutches. #FreeHurlshot

I have enough attractive female friends that I don't need to imagine.

Super Smash Bros is getting a release for the 3DS, might have to pick it up. I remember being confused by Marvel vs. Capcom 2 because a lot of the Marvel characters did weird **** they couldn't do in the comics.

The Incredible Hulk.

Indeed. It still needs some tweaking, but is such an improvement over the D&D bard. I haven't played a Chanter yet(limited time due to stupid stuff like working towards a degree and work), but improving what is generally a ****ty class isn't really saying much. From what I've read, PoE's Chanter is much cooler lore wise than the D&D Bard and looks to be mechanically much more useful and unique. Damn, I may have to play one now.

Ok good. I like the Cipher the best from a conceptual point. However, it needs a lot of tweaking, both in terms of abilities and base stats. IMO it's stats should be tweaked to allow it to be more role-ready for gish/soulknife/psychic warrior stuff, which seems to me what the concept of the class is. As it is now, I think it's a bit too close to pure caster.

Hey bro, you should put an "I voted in the other one" option. So I don't vote for two classes.

Today I worked out and did studying. Now I'm going to marshal the Patriarchy Militia and attempt to free Hurlshot.

It should be an undead horse by now... There is something interesting in the OP though. He's saying that he played BG 1 solo to get has much XP has possible, yet unless you are using an XP uncapper, you reach max level fast and stop gaining XP doing it that way. 1. I thought using uncapped XP was standard in most non-vanilla installations of BG? 2. At this point, the horse has been killed, raised as undead, had its negative energy purged, remains devowered by a pack of worgs, pooped out by the worgs, transformed into a poop monster by magic, been destroyed, and is now being torn apart at the atomic level.

Quick, someone do a 20 page paper on how balance is evil and kills fun.

Should have eaten pizza. That sounds tasty.

I worked out and am unable to sleep.

Does this mean SJWs will start whiteknighting for us?

It would be applied to everything. So previously if you were 1s attack, 1s recovery, 1s armor penalty, that's 3s total attack time. Then with 30% IAS (15 DEX under our system) that becomes 2.3s total attack time. And just to reiterate - I know the paper's long (boy do I know that xD), but we'd very much appreciate if anyone stumbling on to this thread takes the time to read the paper before replying - I've seen 1 or 2 posts so far that are answered in the paper, albiet maybe in the middle of a long paragraph or something. I'll take some time to thoroughly read it when I get off work. With the values you've given, it does seem things could get chaotic with a max Dex, naked, dual fast weapons character under the effects of a haste spell. Admittedly a min Dex character in plate mail casting long spells is too. I'm just trying to play Devil's Advocate. Edited for clarity, forgot DA was a game abbreviation.

I have to agree with the proposed changes. Would the bomus in recovery be applied before or after the armor penalty?

Unfortunately, we are still unsure of our status as "dead" or our secret handshake. I personally think we should develop telepathy, but the fellas really like doing the helicopter d!ck. Banging our d!cks together would be a good secret handshake since members of the matriarchy would be incapable of performing the handshake. Yeah, that ain't happening.

Eva Green in green...

I find the people with the strongest opinions on something are often unfamiliar with it. Not to mention here in the USA, socialism is conflated with various welfare programs and the whole state ownership of means of production bit is largely ignored. As to the interview, I agree with him. The SJWs seem to have a big problem with artistic freedom when stuff they don't like is portrayed. I think people should create a whatever they want to myself, and if I don't like it I will not bother with it. Plenty of games out there for me as is, I don't need to force others to change their vision into what I deem acceptable. Although seeing as my avatar is a shapeshifting monster that eats children, what I find acceptable is probably much different than most.

I'm just waiting for news to come out that they found a bloodied knife and a corpse under the crawl space of her house and you guys start saying "that could be ANYONE'S knife and corpse, we don't know for sure. Maybe someone who doesn't like her and was depressed decided to commit suicide and got under her crawl space first before doing so!" If it is a longknife then I will definitely be skeptical. The media keeps using her as a jumping point to scream misogyny. They keep bringing her up and they will keep doing so. The best thing most of the #Gamergate crowd can do is ignore her, and keep to the issue of nepotism and dishonesty in the media. As the more we discuss her the more ammunition it potentially gives that media. Let's say the media are trying to discredit the movement. A good way to do that is to leave false trails around ZQ and call misogyny every time they are used against her. Leaving her be is the best thing this movement can do. Sarkesian (sp?) as well. Those 2 are not important. They are landmines with purpose. They are a part of the whole though. Kill the head of the snake and the body dies. These 2 women are anything but the head. More like the tail. If the movement changes the media's issues then ZQ and sarkesian(sp?) will fade anyway... Well ZQ for sure. Stop reducing women to "tail", sub-human male.

Picked up Copperhead #1. Looks very promising, reads sort of like a Space Western and is easy on the eyes.

Mirror Image in AD&D wasn't a hard counter. It's a pretty iconic example of a soft counter, actually. removal of rng and hard counters edit: Actually I don't know enough to say for sure, anyone is welcome to correct me. Is the deflection bonus from mirror image enough to make it do the same function as the dnd mirror image? Or is it just a "minor" bonus to make "muscle wizards" more tanky. In theory with a high enough deflection bonus it could do the same thing, no? The PoE mirror image sounds like it might be stronger than the D&D one, actually. Doesn't each individual image in D&D have the same AC as you do? That means it's easier to cut them down one-by-one than it is it break through PoE's mirror image. From 3.5, mirror image uses the same AC as caster and has a % chance to miss. Conceptually, PoE's version is better.
