| #1TellackJul 01, 2008 7:40:56 | Hello, I'm inquiring about upgrades on these forums today. Here are my current stats/items All suggestions welcome ![]() Paladin 5/ Pious Templar 6 Stats: Str 16 Dex 12 Con 16 Int 10 Wis 13 Cha 18 HP 103 AC 28 Fort 17 Reflex 9 Will 12 Items: +1 Longsword +2 Full Plate with BlueShine +2 Heavy Steel Shield +2 Ring of Protection Ring of Adamantine Touch Helm of Glorious Recovery Amulet of Health +2 Cloak of CHA +1 Vest of Resistance Belt of Priestly Might Anklet of Translocation (2 for when first is used for the day) Gauntlets of Giantfelling Bracers of Blinding Strike Wand of Cure Light Wounds Charm of the Fey (Freedom of Movement once/adventure) Wis Ioun Stone [Face slot is open] Feats: Weapon Focus [Longsword] True Believer Power Attack Divine Might Leadership [Cleric/Rad Servant Cohort] Weapon Spec. Melee Weapon Mastery I recently also came into possession of a Pegasus mount as my special mount. I have a favor to bump any ability score by +1 for 10,000gp. I have "any" access to Moderate Fortification as per a one-time-use favor. The current plan is to get the +1 stat bump to CHA as per my favor when I reach level twelve (another point in CHA) and then pursue an upgrade to my Charisma Cloak. With my new mount, the Anklets aren't of so much use anymore ![]() Anyone have ideas for new "boots"? How about items for my flying mount? What about a feat selection at level 12? [I'm thinking Extra Smiting, Mounted Combat, or Close Quarters Fighting] I'm usually using two One More Time Campaign Cards, aside from four smites a day. |
| #2bitznarfJul 01, 2008 14:58:10 | When do you get 2nd level spells out of Pious Templar? I would suggest looking for a way to take advantage of that. Ie. get your wisdom to 12 - best option is probably an ioun stone if you have access. |
| #3TellackJul 01, 2008 15:06:37 | ** update, gained access to WIS Ioun Stone and purchased it ** |
| #4magebeastJul 01, 2008 15:41:02 | I would take a look at 2nd level paladin spells (I'm not familiar with them) and see how they stack up to the extra oomph on your smites and the +1 to saves. If 2nd level spells are good - and I suspect they are - you might consider just going with the bump to wisdom and forgoing the stat bump option. You can always find something to spend 10k on. |
| #5timlagorJul 01, 2008 21:42:32 | I have access to any armor or shield enhancement of my choosing (I'm thinking Displacement (MIC) to my full plate. That's an illegal favour. Whether it's an old AR that should have Errata or a new one that should never have been approved, that favour is not supposed to exist in LG. |
| #6TellackJul 02, 2008 11:49:26 | I recently have acquired these following favors: -provide access to any one non-open, non-closed feat.** -provide access to any one non-open, non-closed prestige class.** -provide access to any one non-open, non-closed spell.** -You may purchase any magical item in the DMG up to and including 250,000 gold pieces at the discount of 25%** -Alternately, you may choose to points for access to items. You must still purchase them as normal, but you may trade points for items on a 1 point for 5,000 gold piece item access, up to 200,000 gold piece items. Items must be non-evil, non-necromatic, non-psionic items. ** **These are proposed items to be added to ARs / AR requests from a Triad.** If you have any good ideas for what my character should get, feel free to comment. I can get Holy on my weapon or a Ring of Evasion :O |
| #7bitznarfJul 02, 2008 11:52:25 | If those favors make it onto an AR, I will be highly disappointed. Favours of that sort were specifically removed (ie, Voided) when LGCS 7 came out. |
| #8TellackJul 02, 2008 11:54:37 | That's an illegal favour. Ok, if so, then that saves future mistakes. Anyway, I have two of these such favors: "You gain one time access (frequency:any) to purchase an upgrade to a magical item from the following list: weapon, armor, shield, (etc). It only affects enhancement bonuses for armor, shields, or weapons. This upgrade may increase the bonus by more than one point but may not result in a final bonus in excess of +5." "[name] arranges one +1 enhancement improvement for any weapon, shield, armor, (etc) to a maximum of +4. Wizard PCs may instead copy two spells..." |
| #9tetsujinoniJul 02, 2008 12:52:50 | Ok, if so, then that saves future mistakes. Anyway, I have two of these such favors: Both of those refer to enhancement bonuses. That's the raw +(#) of the weapon - so +1 to +2 or +2 to +3. There are others favors which grant access to, for example "+1 equivalent special qualities from table X which could be crafted by a (class)". That's legal... The AR requests from KEO8s... wow, not legal much? |
| #10bitznarfJul 02, 2008 13:45:11 | Both of those refer to enhancement bonuses. That's the raw +(#) of the weapon - so +1 to +2 or +2 to +3. Yeah, you don't even need favours for these anymore - the LGCS gives access to straight +X enhancement bonuses. |
| #11tetsujinoniJul 02, 2008 15:20:45 | Yeah, you don't even need favours for these anymore - the LGCS gives access to straight +X enhancement bonuses. Well, yeah, there's that too. Sorta like I weep bitter, bitter tears every time I see Heward's Handy Haversack on a year 8 AR. Or grey guard access, with a TU cost. I mean, really? Did they not LOOK at the LGCS when they made the AR request? |
| #12TellackJul 02, 2008 22:53:16 | How about an "easy" way to get Evasion, besides saving for the ring or multiclassing? I can get the ring down to 18,750 with a favor, but that is still quite a large chunk of change (and about 10k gp away) |
| #13tetsujinoniJul 04, 2008 0:14:46 | How about an "easy" way to get Evasion, besides saving for the ring or multiclassing? Divine Oracle levels are an OK multiclassing target, if WEIRD for a Paladin. |
| #14timlagorJul 04, 2008 18:56:00 | In general I'd rather see a couple of Rogue levels with added Staggering Strike. I wouldn't want to give up the BAB&HP for DO but it's not terrible. Personally I would just live without Evasion. |
| #15TellackJul 04, 2008 21:59:26 | Yah, the Ring is really the option now... although I want to next stat bump my charisma (10,000 gp favor) and then get Holy on my Longsword (maybe). Other nice accesses may come up. I really need a face/eye slot item though! |
| #16harimanJul 04, 2008 22:04:06 | If those favors make it onto an AR, I will be highly disappointed. Favours of that sort were specifically removed (ie, Voided) when LGCS 7 came out. Oh, well. There's an interesting thing about those illegal AR items. They're only requests as of this moment. They're currently awaiting approval. And that "Trade Points for Access" favor deserves a clarification. The "Points" in question are unused favors from a large list of Keoland higher ups. So you're spending favors to gain access to certain things. It's the favors that are worded "You gain access to two "not open not closed" feats, (or spells, or prestige classes.) that are the sticking points. But, really, can't we have our cheesecake and eat it too? The campaign IS ending after all. And that Keocon Battle Interactive was TOUGH. Out of a hundred people there were probably 15 to 20 who died. Heck, the writers had gotten all that they legally could out of the encounters and didn't expect the PCs to win either. Yet we did. Despite all the difficulties and having to kill an epic character as one step to victory. |
| #17timlagorJul 06, 2008 10:04:42 | If they're awaiting approval now they're too late ;) Nothing can be approved for LG any more. |
| #18magebeastJul 06, 2008 10:57:34 | If they're awaiting approval now they're too late ;) Really? I thought circle level stuff was still allowed, they just couldn't release mods. |
| #19harimanJul 06, 2008 21:45:52 | Really? I thought circle level stuff was still allowed, they just couldn't release mods. You would think that they could release ARs for published adventures. |
