Jesusfreak 312 #251 Posted November 3, 2014 Nice to see you guys playing the D&D, really gave me some interest and some ideas with my character creation, it's currently under review by the DM himself. I've tried something slightly like this in Garrysmod which is called Half-life 2 roleplay which points at the same direction. A world before Gorden Freemans return where the combine has taken over the earth. You play as a citizen who is forced to live under the rules of the strict laws enforcements called the Civil Protections. I'm happy to join in this new gamemode Also this is something my character might act to people so far. Don't let him! 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Infin 763 #257 Posted November 4, 2014 Few years ago I played D&D for a couple of months with a bunch of friends. I'm 6ft3 but I played a Dwarf. I wasn't very good at staying in character, but it was still lots of fun. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nano 7,892 #259 Posted November 7, 2014 This is currently me waiting it for to be Sunday. You finish your character yet? Any questions? You'll need to input the information into the character sheet (up to level 3) on roll20.net when you are done. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You'll need to input the information into the character sheet (up to level 3) on roll20.net when you are done. I'll do that, DB already had a look on it, but I will properly only start from level two and be a lower level than you. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We've got room for one more I think. If you want to play, just get the other players permission. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+Skaila 5,462 #268 Posted November 9, 2014 All right, got a question since I can't really figure it out My feats are Rapid Shot (-2) and Quick Draw (+1) => -1 With my awesome bow of +1 => breakeven = 0 But my base is 3 and my ranged is 6 So not sure how that works To hit (non favored enemy): 1D20+3 or 1D20+6 Damage (non favored enemy): 1D8+3 or 1D8+6 Which is correct? Red or green? Or am I completely wrong with my calculations? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Red or green? Or am I completely wrong with my calculations? I'll look into this after my lunch. Okay. I'll set down the facts, and you can decide what you want to do. Because you are human, you should have three feats in addition to the ones given to you by class. You have chosen: Weapon Finesse, Stealthy, and Quick Draw. I'm not going to let you change Weapon Finesse (which lets you use your dexterity bonus to strike instead of strength, so you could be using a sword you know) or Stealthy (which fits in with your character concept of being a hunter) but I will let you change Quick Draw if you wish because it does not give you a bonus to strike. Quick Draw allows you to draw your weapon as a free action as opposed to a move action. If someone just appeared in front of you normally you'd have to draw your weapon as your move action (or during in some cases), but with Quick Draw you draw your weapon so quickly it's like it's always been in your hands. Read the descriptions of some other feats and decide if this is what you really want. Your base attack is +3, and your dexterity bonus is +3, so if you use a sword your bonus is +6 and if you use your bow (+1) your attack bonus is +7 Favored Enemy gives you a +2 to your damage rolls but not your attack (strike) so shooting an orc would be at +7 with a +2 to damage A non-orc would be +7 with no bonus to damage when you use your Rapid Shot feat you take a -2 on both your attack rolls that round, so you would attack with your bow at +5 twice Got it? Look at Point Blank Shot and Weapon Focus if you're looking to become more accurate with your shooting. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Look at Point Blank Shot and Weapon Focus if you're looking to become more accurate with your shooting. I'll go for Point Blank Shot So +1 within 30 feet So I can still do a rapid shot + point blank? Or is it one at a time? I can either shoot twice or shoot once point blank? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
