Spoony's PnP Tales

[Ulminati]

Wouldn't let you use only things from the player's handbook if I were DMing.

It's a step down in power fom the conjuration specializt wizard I used to play. Also only core rulebook spells, feats and features.

 

[Jasede]

You can make all sorts of ridiculous builds using only core books, spells and feats.

Edit: I'm fine with powerful builds if they're justified IG but I do think that A), the party should be similarly powerful, not just one guy and B), encounters should take your raw power into account and be scaled. A good DM should be an expect at game mechanics.

 

[Shadenuat]

Stupid as a boot priest with composite bow... but DEADLY charismatic There is a hint of realism about it, actually. Although I do think Smite Evil should be a bit more "cinematic" in it's power, but Pathfinder seemed to take it little bit too far.

 

[Ulminati]

Paladins are fine. Yes, they're extra-stronk vs undeads and outsiders. But that doesn't come up all that often. It's no worse than cleric turn undead in 3.x. You mostly use smite evil for the DR bypass which can be quite signifigant.

The real power gain comes from the changes to manyshot and the introduction of deadly aim. You can do some truly terrifying archery builds with it.
Gunslingers and rangers make the munchiest gatling guns atm, followed by half orc bomb alchemists.

I've no nothing about pathfinder, but I've got curious and took a quick look at spell lists and found this: http://paizo.com/pathfinderRPG/prd/spells/windWall.html
Wouldn't that spell mitigate most of the damage done to the dragon if he had cast that in the beginning of the fight and hid behind it?

 

[Ulminati]

Must be placed along the ground, is static, is not very tall. Would force dragon to hover (they don't have perfect maneuverbility) in a small area, inside the range of wizard spells and melee types with fly or levitate.

Counter Monkey – Beware Women, For They Come From Hell

Feminism trendwave reached the Spoony too it seems. Although, funny enough, it made me remember Baldur's Gate 1: instant death-nymph encounter, ogre in a flask, lady with gauntles of ogre power, succubuss in Durlag's Tower...

Flirty women in tabletop RPGs are always traps for one good reason. No one wants their chubby, sweaty referee pretending to be a voluptuous girl while roleplaying and detailing a sexual encounter with a player. Not unless you're into that kind of thing during play. And if so, I guess it puts a whole new spin on the phrase 'dungeon master'.

Finally, a truly decent topic to make a video about.
Knowing Spoony players though I will not be surprised to hear a story where they try to LOL KILL THE LADY DERP DERP

 

[J_C]

And they were great videos. Of course Spoony also confirms that PST is one of the best cRPGs ever made.

I had a DM who tried to RP romance before... If I'd taken a picture, I could've put it in the dictionary beside the word "creepy".

Counter Monkey – Beware Women, For They Come From Hell

I assume he tried to get it on with that chick he reviewed the latest Twilight movie with and botched that roll. Don't do, Spoony.

 

[Infinitron]

 

[J_C]

I would fuck her.

 

[Akasen]

I'd join in.

 

[LeStryfe79]

Did he threaten to chain her to his basement? Also, I assume he did get it on with her, but she lost interest soon thereafter.

Counter Monkey – Laundry Day in the Tower of High Sorcery

[Shadenuat]

Ah, Dragonlance. Heard a lot, nether bothered to pick up even one book. Are they readable?

 

[Ulminati]

Highly overrated generic D&D pulp. If you gobble up FR books, you may find a modicum of entertainment in them.

I understand that he's best when he's just sits there and rambles about stuff, but I think it's time for Spoony to learn of existance of book marks.
