TOPIC: FULL - V11b Sat Nov 5 3:48pm CDT Hedgehog

td.events/conventions/vtd11b/slots/21041

I have all 10 tickets and am looking for more players; post here with class preferences if you'd like to join! Cost is $68 each; I'll PM payment details once we have critical mass.

Order of the Hedgehog precepts:

• win as many combats as possible using ONLY Retribution damage (no attacking)
• mercilessly attack any foes too cowardly to engage us in melee
• be prepared for either Hardcore or Nightmare difficulty (TBD in coaching based on early recon)
• must consent to combat-related spoilers

1. David Zych: Cleric/Fighter/Dwarf/Paladin/Bard/Elf (full TE x2)
2. BeLinda: Barbarian/Fighter/Dwarf {paid:swap}
3. zinniz: Barbarian {paid}
4. Wade: Dwarf {paid}
5. Rachel: Paladin {paid:Wade}
6. BasicBraining: Druid/martial = Ranger {paid}
7. Kendal: Elf (full TE x1) {paid}
8. jon: ? {paid}
9. Charles Russell: Cleric {paid}
10. hacky: Druid {paid}

open: Monk, Rogue, Wizard

We can run this with anywhere from 5-10 players as long as we have enough TEs to cover the ghosts, so please let me know what TEs you have (and also if you're interested in buying any leftover ghosts).

Build for high RD (15+), low AC , and appropriate DR .

Remember you must actually take at least 1 point of damage in order to inflict RD, so too much DR is counterproductive (especially at HC). Earcuff of Ramparts is nifty (with a bard) because we can turn it on and off during the dungeon.

New to retribution builds? Belt of Thorns is where it's at, but some classes can reach 15 RD with no URs:
Neck: Amulet of Thorns
Torso: Plate of the Forge (Cleric, Fighters & Paladin)
Waist: Belt of Retribution
Charm: Charm of Thorny Barbs
Charm: Charm of Thorns
Charm: Charm of Barbs

I have extra Amulet of Thorns, Plate of the Forge, Charm of Thorns, and Charm of Barbs.

Wade Rachel
Dwarf Paladin (Bard if absolutely necessary)

I pulled 2 potion eel’s defense in my V8b treasure!

Also, from my perspective, Wade can totally have dwarf fighter, feel free to take it off my list.

Thanks! I just want to be able to taunt. I'd take Bard if needed.

I’m in. I can stick with druid as before, or of someone really wants druid I can switch to a martial class no problem.

interested in joining. no tes but im sure others in the party have them.
not sure what class. will make a few builds of fighter, bard, monk and figure it out i guess or whatever the party needs.

Hey, you know that I would be down to do this again. Of the classes that are not taken I would prefer to run fighter but I can be flexible and it may be fun to try out some other classes just to see where I can get the retribution and AC

Alright got builds ready for whatever class .

Back from GHC and it's almost hedgehog time again!

One slot still open, and jon and Charles feel free to pick classes (currently available: Bard, Cleric, Monk, Ranger, Rogue, Wizard).

I guess that i will go ahead and make a spiky cleric and see if I can't have some ok healing at the same time.

Once I have a build put together I'll see if the healing is still decent. If not I'll probably put together a rogue as something different

Do you want to take Fighter? I could in theory be a retribution Rogue. I just never think about it because Rogue is often taken early, and because my husband is the Rogue in this family. He’s not on this run, though, and there’s no law that says I can’t be a Rogue.

Feel free to borrow my Drue's and Relsa's for a Cleric build (and LMK if you need any other staples)
