A cone that deals 5D6 damage to targets and deafens them for 2D6 rounds, Fort save for 1/2 damage and no deafness. Greater Shout does 10D6 damage and deafens and stuns targets for 4D6 rounds, Fort save for 1/2 and no deafness or stun. Against brittle or crystaline objects, they instead do D6 damage per level (up to 10D6 for Shout, or 20D6 for Greater Shout).

If the hobgoblins rushing Azure City fought like the goblins in Goblins!, there wouldn't even BE a comic for OOTS. Hell, most 1st level D & D parties would get TPK'd too. (Not that I mind, Thac0 and Complains are hilarious little death machines.)

Big Ears is tearing poo poo up in the recent panels, too. I think they all the have "the person drawing me likes to do awesome detailed combat scenes" feat, wich is even better than toughness in NWN2. They're what, second level last time they mentioned it? Third maybe? Just more proof that low-mid level adventures are way better than uber-level bloat.

Earlier in the thread someone mentioned you could make a cure minor wound wand with infinite charges for really cheap. Well, I looked it up, and all the rules for creation seem to indicate wands have just 50 charges. I didn't see any rules that allow me to increases the charges up to infinite. Where is that rule located? Because I have an Aaracockra air cleric on Athas right now and if he could make an infinite charge cure minor wounds on the cheap it sure would be excellent.

Well i'd assume without an artist nothing would get drawn. Either way I think colaberation carries it's own risks of developing stupid ideas. It may be the strip is the result of two competing creative visions, or rather two competing creative mirages, the type where you dive into the pond and start drinking but you find yourself eating sand in a dry lake bed and bugs bunny is laughing at you from a nearby dune.

However it's limited to arcane spells 3rd level and lower, and special Eberron only materials. Also, you can only use the wand twice a day.

This new strip made no sense at all. Is it even related to the story? I think I'm going to stop reading Erfworld. I think I'll go back and read through it again once "Battle for Gobwin Knob" is done and maybe it'll make more sense when everything is together and we don't have to wait a week in between updates.

Brannock posted:This new strip made no sense at all. Is it even related to the story? Ansom's main squeeze is rejoining with her army and she wants to go provide air support for a column instead of following Ansom's battle plan of staying put and fighting with her current unit, possibly in order to somehow further Wanda's agenda. Meanwhile, we see Parson's plan being executed as the dragons attack the siege towers. It's not gripping, but I get what's going on without needing to go back and read it or anything.

Hmm, was kinda hoping they were undead and a Rebuke Undead would put them under Redcloak's command. At least there's still chance Tsukikko will burst in after they're done and start yelling to Xykon how Redcloak tried to kill her. Xykon and Redcloak can share a laugh and then blast her with their magic. True buddy movie style.

Wow, Soon's own ghost may make this a close battle. I felt for sure we were going to see a total victory for Xykon here, but maybe they'll actually destroy or protect the gate.

If the "who's on first?" joke is never, ever, ever brought up pop culture ever again, it will still have been put to rest about 50 years after it should have died. This is not even the first time he has used it, is it? Granted, it seems to be almost a kind of a meta-joke-joke by this point, so this particular usage does not really irritate me. I did not expect the battle to be even close to this remotely evenly-matched, either. Maybe Soon will collapse the castle on Xykon and Redcloak and it will take a few weeks to find out what happened?

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go buy a pocket protector and a slide ruler to be properly equipped for the level of Nerd I just hit by knowing that.

greatn posted:Earlier in the thread someone mentioned you could make a cure minor wound wand with infinite charges for really cheap. Cure Light Wounds wands are the most cost effective. You could make a magic item that would have infinite charges. The DMG has rules for use-activated/continuous effect magic items. A wand is Spell Level x Caster Level x 750gp. Cure Light Wounds is a 1st level cleric spell, castable by 1st level clerics (all magic items are assumed to be at the lowest caster level) so the cost is 750gp. To create it yourself, you pay half the gp cost and 1/25 the cost in XP (375gp and 30xp). To make a use-activated item (not necessarily in wand form) it's Spell Level x Caster Level x 2000gp. Pretty drat cost effective for infinite Cure Lights for after combat. 2000gp to buy it in a shop (but unlikely to be available, thanks to good old fashioned capitalism). 1000gp and 80xp to craft it yourself, provided you have Craft Wondrous Item.

Xykon really should have been dead by now. It doesn't make much sense that spellcaster would survive in a room full of paladins he doesn't even know how to hurt for any length of time.

Vicissitude posted:Cure Light Wounds wands are the most cost effective. Likelihood of ever getting that much scratch on Athas is pretty low for a bird-man cleric though. The cure minor is much more affordable and does the same job, only slower. 1000 cp(ceramic pieces = gold pieces except for metal items), if I had that much, I'd buy a house and retire.

Depends on what level he is and what defensive spells he knows. And how do we know he doesn't know how to hurt them? I thought the last time we saw him he was just being attacked, I don't recall that he was confused about how to hurt them.

I thought the last time we saw him he was just being attacked, I don't recall that he was confused about how to hurt them. Well, he didn't, going by today's strip. He was using fireballs and lightning bolts in the comic with 50% miss chance, Redcloak had to tell him why those don't work, and had to tell him which spells would work against the foes. With flying creatures, 17 should be able to attack him at once(8 around him, and a 3 by 3 square right above him). All 8 on bottom would have flanking bonuses. All of them have smite evil. He's a sorcerer with sorcerer AC and doesn't it take a monster concentration check to cast spells when you're taking damage? All of these were mid-level Paladins too. Even a lich shouldn't stand a snowball's chance in hell against those kind of odds. Here's an idea. Isn't Roy's dad still in that chamber? He retains his spellcasting powers, right? Wonder if any of his illusions could come into play, or if any of his illusions are already IN play.

He's undead, with like twenty d12 hit dice, so really he's just as durable as a death knight would have been in his place. I mean, sure, his AC could be better, but most of the paladin ghosts in that room are the ghosts of like level seven or eight characters.
