How's everyone getting along with it? Any one need help with it?

I've fully settled on a Cleric of Tempest now, a pure blooded Roman, ex military turned "Cleric" ;). Will get it written up tonight or tomorrow at work!
 
Just checking what we are doing for stats?

Point buy? Array? Roll? I've done mine based on the standard array:

15,14,13,12,10,8 then assign those to stats then add your racial/feat extra's. That how we doing it?
 
I did point buy - you get the same overall result as the standard array but it gives some flexibility to you. Plus I like a minimum of 10 in stats :D
 
Aye point buy and array are all much the same.

Will see if I can get 18 wisdom then with point buy, will see what I have to give up. Might end up being rather uncharismatic ;)!

EDIT: Actually, can't get over 16 with point by, unless we can override it, that okay to do DM? (tbh I dont think I will, since its going to totally gimp my other stats) scratch that.. would cost 9 ability points to get the stat up! No waay!

EDIT: To help everyone else, here is a list of all of the variations you can have BEFORE racial modifiers.

Or, you can have 15/14/13/12/10/8 instead (standard array).

How is the point buy thing working for you all? Every DM I've gamed with uses the 4d6, highest 3 (some even let you re-roll 1's which usually helps). Separates you from normal people.

Just written a one shot for this weekend (betrayal, pointless fetch quest, kill puppet master).

Hope when can expect an overview of your epic adventureyness. There better be giant rats and tavern burning!
 
Still playing a bard, but no longer from Scotland :( as it could cause some issues with the rest of the group.

still working on a back story for him but basic stats/equipment
(using array)

str: 10
dex: 14 (+2)
con: 8
int: 13
wis: 12
cha: 15 (+2)


Equipment: Longsword, dagger, diplomats pack
Bard Instrument: Fiddle Bagpipes

Will probably take vicious mockery cantrip and maybe mage hand.


not sure with spells yet.

Shami I'm happy to play with a 5 man group (will only take a quick 20-30min fiddle with encounters I have built) so you are more than welcome. If you want in let me know and I'll drop you the work in progress history/setting book.

On the topic of the history/setting book I'll look to close this out ASAP as I can see it's causing a few issues. Just realised when I was reading it I misse out the 2 biggest regions when I was running down the region descriptions haha :p:D

@hughes, keep the bard I love the idea! Might make for some interesting circumstances but that what your silver tongue is for! :D
 
(Also John when we continuing DH? :p)

Was thinking about this the other day, can't do this weekend maybe the week after.

@hughes, keep the bard I love the idea! Might make for some interesting circumstances but that what your silver tongue is for! :D

Ok :D time to watch braveheart to help me nail down an awful accent and lingo.
 
@ Bickaxe - I used 4d6 drop lowest when I DM but its caused a few issues, had to let some guy keep re-rolling as he was getting 5's and 10's for stats when everyone else got lucky and has at least 18 in their main stat. He kept rolling as his points were around 20 below everyone elses... he then went and rolled 18,17,16,13,13,11 and I've had to let him keep it .. he is a warlock of teifling origin, so he has 20 Charisma (+5!).

All in all, everyone his hitting more often, due to higher main stats, which has meant that I have had to slightly adjust monsters to compensate.

Next time I DM I am going to point buy it, so I don't have to adjust DC checks and monster stats on the fly.

@ Lordhughes - I am fully expecting everyone to accent it up! I might even see about borrowing a shirt of chain mail to play in haha (my brother has one, dont ask).
