Gan Ning: Actually, look at Monks. Yeah, they've nearly invincible... a shame about being even less able to do anything. A Fighter, at least, can hit.


The issue, Alexandor, isn't that single-class melee sucks at high levels, it's that nearly all melee sucks at high levels. Rogue levels help considerably, especially for a two-weapon character... though two-weapon fighting is a very weak option under the normal rules, because it takes too many feats to even be worthwhile. Might want to go with a homebrew fix there, I've seen a few. Typical solution's to roll all the two-weapon feats into one instead of requiring someone to take five feats just to get an extra three inaccurate attacks per round.

Some classes you should definitely consider adding:

Knight - they get the ability to draw attacks, so they actually function as a proper tank.

Duskblade - Fun fighter/mage hybrid, focused almost entirely on damage. While it can cast in medium armor, it only gets spells up to level 5, and they're almost all damage spells.

Psion - Amazing how a Wizard-like class with heavy armor and no spell failure chance is balanced, but compared to Wizards, it actually is. They also use an MP-like system, which most people are more familiar with, and they're better at straight damage than a Wizard, giving people more accustomed to mages in other RPGs an easy, familiar option. Of course, if you screw up on the various restrictions, balance with them goes all to hell. They don't have as many disable/instant-kill options as normal Arcane casters, though.


On the Neverwinter Nights topic, go here. Adds a crapload of classes, and it's easily added to other modules including the official campaigns. If you already updated to 1.69, however, you'll have to either downgrade to 1.68 or wait for PRC 3.2 (which will hopefully be done soon...)

It's still something you should consider so you don't make it too hard to add things later.

Happy birthday.

I'd have gotten you a gift, but it's the thought that counts, and I thought I'd rather spend the money on me.

Posted on 08-02-08 05:23 PM, in Forum Rules Link
It hadn't occurred to me that the forum rules weren't actually posted here. And apparently Forum Announcements are broken, so this goes into a sticky thread.

The rules:

1. No personal attacks. I don't care if you're attacking an utter moron, a banned member, or a respected forum member. If your post consists of nothing but a drawn out attack, I will edit it into nonexistance - I'm not going to close a good thread because of one person. If it contains personal attacks mixed into a useful post, I'll attempt to trim the insults out. Either way, I will inform you in a post from me as well as in your edited post.

2. No bashing religious beliefs. This is quite possibly the fastest way to get yourself permanently removed from this forum.

2b. Likewise, no racism, sexism, etc.

3. Do not post in a thread more than three months old without contributing meaningfully to the topic. If you have something worth contributing, however, go ahead and post - although a new thread may be better.

4. Do not derail a thread. If there's a related topic that you would like to discuss, post a new thread for it.

5. Unless posting a news article, your post must consist of more than just a link - so if someone asks you to explain what you're talking about, don't just link them to Wikipedia, actually explain what you're talking about.

6. Please, no grammar nitpicking.

Things to remember:

Attacking someone's logic is not the same as attacking the person - just make sure you are, in fact, going after their logic and also contributing to the topic. In other words, don't say "your logic sucks" without also explaining why.

Discussing religious beliefs is not the same as bashing them. It is, however, a very sensitive topic for a lot of people. If you're touchy about your religion, don't join in threads discussing the topic; what you may interpret as an attack might only be simple discussion, and if you attack in retaliation, you'll be forumbanned.

Logical fallacies are not against the rules. That doesn't mean you should use them, just that I won't kick you out of the forum for doing so.

This is not a high school debate club. With occasional specially-marked exceptions, the focus isn't on "winning". Admittedly, perhaps "Debate" shouldn't even be in the name; most of what's done here is discussion rather than debate.

If someone asks you to explain yourself, just do so. If you don't, you'll probably either look arrogant or like you don't actually know what you're talking about.

In more serious debates, it's smart to include citations. Furthermore, try not to use statistics without a citation - you know the old joke, 81% of all statistics are made up, etc.

I try to moderate openly. If your actions in a thread warrant an official warning, I will post it right there.


PM me with any questions, comments, criticism, or justified complaints.

I nominate myself.

Here's why.

For those unfamiliar with Gunbound, my first shot dug that hole. My opponent's right in front of me.

Since this is a sort of catch-all thread, I'm gonna sticky it and see how the activity goes.

Don't have anything else to contribute though.

It's "things that make you facepalm", not "pictures of facepalms", guys.

Never thought I'd have to tell the admins to read the thread.

Okay, I know we didn't get a lot of votes, but I think you said you were closing this on the 5th.

Now, this isn't my thing, so I'll let you decide whether or not to close it, but I don't think we're getting any more votes.

Yeah, that was me.

Ragnarok Online WoE Moments:

On my level 68 Assassin, Yoshi Ryumi, I snuck into a castle to see about taking it. It had a guard, a Clown that fired at me. I escaped, barely, and quickly came up with a plan. I contacted Perfect Chaos Zero from Cutevil, who was guarding Wuerzburg with Tremulant - a High Priest and a High Wizard, and told them to retreat to the emperium room.

After that...

Yoshi Ryumi : alright, I have an inside source that says Wuerz is empty
Yoshi Ryumi : I'm in Rothen, right by the emp room
rob the clown : i see you lol
Yoshi Ryumi : I cna guard while you take Wuerz
rob the clown : or take it from us while Ace kills me
rob the clown : lol
rob the clown : i dont know
Yoshi Ryumi : like I said, Wuerz is empty
rob the clown : will you take here?
Yoshi Ryumi : no, I'll guard.
rob the clown : are you sure?
Yoshi Ryumi : quite.
rob the clown : all right

He left and fell into the trap. Sadly, I was, as I said, a level 68 Assassin; I didn't have the power to take out the emperium before he returned. Still, pulling off every other part of that.

Keep in mind that PC0 didn't have much reason to play along, since I was in Lunar Eclipse, and CE and LE weren't allied. I love improvising.


Gunbound Negative Achievement: This.

Strictest staff member for two years. Second-best full moderator for two years too.

Hey, Xeo, how about you promote Rogue so I can win that one, hm? Or demote, either works for me.

While I love the kid to death, I'm glad she's not a twin. Good grief.


Aye, seconded. In the search for money, I offered to babysit for a relative of mine... she has three kids, one's a baby, one's 2 or 3, and one's 9 or 10.

I do wonder sometimes if maybe I deserve more than $10 for putting up with that.



Fuck you, potential employers who never fucking call when you say you're going to. "We'll call tonight or tomorrow." Yeah, bullshit, I'm still waiting to hear back from you over a week later, and that's after calling earlier this week.

Edit: And yeah, I know I should call them, and I do, but it just pisses me off that they can't even manage to do what they say they're going to.
