Basically the modules provide money, and then you go and buy your own magical weapons. That's the idea as long as you don't spend all your money raising your colleagues :P | |||||||

Generally, I'd expect primarily martial (non-unarmed) characters to have +1 weapons, which Kassius and Logan both do. I wouldn't expect other characters who either only sort of melee (Angati), or have to pay extra (Alohan) to have magical weapons until level 5-6. On a related note:
I don't think that's true. I believe shields need to be enhanced separately as weapons and as shields. In fact, I think there's a feat that allows one to use the shield bonus as the weapon bonus. Also, you can't bash with bucklers, only with light or heavy shields. It's the only reason to have a light shield over a buckler. | |||||||

I have been trying out DnD5e as you know... and while its balanced, much more so than pathfinder. You walk narrow paths with regards to character development... and what is worse, combat is over simplified, not so much to do or think about. @Kassius: If you are certain about what you said, then I'd edit my action... or maybe just leave it at the fail it was. I thought buckler was just another kind of light shield... but, I don't think a feat is needed in order to bash, you only need proficiency. What you get with improved shield bash is that you can still add your shield bonus to AC http://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/...-bash-combat---final (which I had neglected to do anyway, but I had not known until now, running actions from rules memorised is sometimes not good it seems.). | |||||||

To be fair Ron, that approach to magic items is only correct in a low-magic campaign and we are definitely not playing one of those. Both Mystara and the STAP are high-magic campaigns where magical items are bought and sold the same way as commodities like sugar, coffee and galley slaves.
Are you only playing in this game now? Wow. If you are confining yourself to one game then I am honoured and extremely happy that you have selected mine. (Happy to have all of you playing of course!) Beni, you can’t shield bash with a buckler but no worries about retracting the action, it was a miss anyway :/ Celene, why don’t we just make the melee types buy some magic weapons? On that note, why doesn’t Alohan just borrow Logan’s magical rapier for the rest of the module? If you go to the loot thread I have listed Logan’s items and you are welcome to borrow what you want, just let me know. | |||||||

Yeah sure, another thing to dangle from Alohan's loin cloth... :) or... maybe he is contemplating the option of a piercing there instead of using a scabbard ?. | |||||||

Wow an action for that ? seems downright shitty | |||||||

If you have the fates favored trait it gets even better with another +1 on top of it. +2 to hit and damage for a level one cleric for ten rounds isn't too bad. | |||||||

At low levels, it's nice as a pre-combat buff when you know you're about to get ambushed, or in the first round of what you expect to be a tough fight. It gets really good at higher levels, particularly if you have some way of quickening it. Angati seems like she's primarily a caster who does some melee, so it's not particularly suited to her strengths, but it's still a nice buff on occasion. | |||||||

Thanks for the info though, I'll keep it in mind. | |||||||

I feel the same way Beni. I consider myself very lucky to have such experienced and committed players in this game. | |||||||

You are already mowing us, no need to bicker about it :P I know you like it though... so I understand. As for Alohan's indignity... well.. think about throwing in a beautiful lady that finds him there in hiding... If no one see's him.. its just half indignity... and the beasts are pretty scary anyways :) This message was last edited by the player at 06:51, Thu 09 June 2016. | |||||||

Looks like Ron wants to save that MF roll. It is only being frightened for a couple of rounds. | |||||||
