I have all 10 tickets and am looking for more players; post here with class preferences if you'd like to join! Cost is $74 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
• must consent to combat-related spoilers
• Nightmare difficulty

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 happen to be interested in buying leftover ghosts).

Build for high RD , low AC (12 is usually good), and at least some melee DR .

Remember you must actually take at least 1 point of melee damage per hit in order to inflict RD, so too much melee DR is counterproductive, but if you get hit 10 or 15 times then each point of melee DR you equip is worth 10 or 15 hp!

New to retribution builds? Belt of Thorns and Cloak of Retribution are 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) or Scorpion Chitin Armor
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.

Charles has 2 extra cloaks of retribution and 1 extra belt of thorns

Alas, I will have to miss this one (and V14) due to scheduling conflicts. Hope to rejoin for V15!

Go ahead and count me in again. This is always a fun run to do.

Hooray! Updated first post also presuming you will have the same 2 extra cloaks of retribution and 1 extra belt of thorns as before, LMK if that ends up not being the case and I'll adjust

BeLinda, we will miss you!

You've got it right. If anything changes I'll let you know. Hopefully it will be adding more to the extras

I’m good for this one!

bump!

Count me and alex in

Bump! Come hog the hedges with us! 10am isn't *that* early... (OK, yes it is, especially for west coast folks, but it'll be fun anyway!)

Still have room for up to 3 more people!

Meanwhile everybody who hasn't already done so should probably go ahead and start picking classes

If no one else wants it I'll grab paladin. It will give us a little additional healing and the Ava's rolls if necessary

my brother (Cleric/Druid) and i (Ranger) got our Cloaks of Retribution last month and would be interested in putting them to good use if you're still looking for players!
