So, why didn't they get papers before entering the city? How did they even get in without anyone asking or telling them about it?

Huitzil posted:Thog is just a normal orc, isn't he? Therkla was a half-orc, and she could speak normal English and only had fangs on her bottom teeth. (Also, her "disturbing implications" origin story was the best thing ever.) Both the books No Cure for the Paladin Blues and War and XPs as well as the ootswiki lists him as a half orc and I'm pretty sure it's been mentioned in the comic as well. The difference in speak is probably because of their difference in mental stats.

So V decides that the best use of her/his turn is to cast fly and get up in melee range with the other wizard instead of something useful like hold person or dispel or even a freaking lightningbolt? Normally I don't care about stuff like that and I know the author has said that the pc's don't always make the most optimal decisions but that's just plain stupid. Even Elan wouldn't do that (well actually he might, because for him being in melee is good since he is a melee fighting person and not a ranged spellcaster).

Cabbit posted:V didn't cast fly, he just started flying. I'm assuming he cast Overland Flight on himself this morning like any smart wizard. It looks like he was about to cast something else, and the Drow nailed him in the face with something he had readied.

Dr I am a Doctor posted:That's because the official forums are the worst forums in the universe, maybe except Gaia forums. I wouldn't go that far, apart from the oots part it's not that bad and at the Roleplaying Games you can get tons of good help/advice with rp. For free you also get occasional discussions exactly like our previous wizard vs rogue except people there are even bigger nerds.

crime fighting hog posted:Endurance let you sleep in your armor. Run let you move x5 your speed instead of x4 per round.

I remember reading somewhere that the higher level you go the less the actual weapons damage matter. Things like Power Attack, enchantments, Favored Enemy and other feats such as Leap Attack makes a d3 instead of a d6 a bit irrelevant.

Dolash posted:So is Thog ultimately the better combatant? Possibly. Barbarians get more hitpoints per level as well as a small amount of damage reduction and Roy has probably spent a lot of his bonus feats on things that require him to be wielding a great sword to matter. Thog is most likely stronger than Roy too, especially if he is raging.

Alchenar posted:You missed the bit in the last comic where Roy was almost back to being even with Thog until the dog got thrown through the wall, at which point he started raging again. I didn't miss it. Normally with things like that you need to roll a d20 and Roy could just have rolled higher. But regardless of that Thog gets a +2 racial bonus to strength so I just assumed he's stronger. Unless of course Roy rolled up some ridiculously good stats so he can afford to match Thog's strength while outclassing him in all mental ones.

So cantrips are actually pretty awesome. The yawn spell would be great to use to harass a public speaker. I forget, can you use metamagic on cantrips?

What if you're bound and gagged by local authorities while awaiting trial for that "hilarious" prank you pulled off in the tavern earlier? Vials of acid can be so much fun. Speaking of that, I've always liked the Invisible spell metamagic. It doesn't cost anything (besides taking the feat) because all it does is make the effect of the spell invisible. So a fireball spell (level 3 spell) turned into an invisible fireball spell is still going to be a level 3 spell. Sure they can easily tell you are casting a spell and once that fireball lands they'll know it was one but it does work wonders if you cast an invisible grease spell on a staircase. It can also be used to fill a room with a thick invisible magic fog to screw with anyone who tries to use see invisibility or true sight. Or how about some invisible explosive runes?

Personally I'm rooting for Redcloak and didn't care that much for the resistance. I almost thought those bearded devils were half-fiend dwarves before I noticed their size. Lots of summoned monsters is nice but if the blues and elves have a caster with banishment ready it could turn out badly for Redcloak.

Yes! Go Redcloak, go! If a magic spell doesn't specifically say it grows hair it probably doesn't.
