td.events/conventions/V25BookOfSpells/slots/23560

I have all 10 tickets and am looking for more players; post here with class preferences if you'd like to join! Cost is $76 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

1. David Zych: Cleric/Bard/Elf/Paladin/Fighter/Dwarf/any
2. BeLinda Mathie: Fighter {swap}
3. BasicBraining: Druid {paid}
4. Wade Schwendemann: Dwarf/Bard/whatever {paid}
5. Rachel: Rogue {paid}
6. Charles Russell: ? {paid}
7. Jason Efford: Paladin/any {paid}
8. Kendal: Elf {paid}
9. zinniz: Barbarian {paid}
10. Alex: Monk {paid}

Note that hedgehogs typically do not equip Charms of Awakened Synergy because we need that slot for other things.

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!

Ear: Earcuff of Ramparts
Neck: Amulet of Thorns
Torso: Plate of the Forge (Cleric, Fighters & Paladin) or Scorpion Chitin Armor or Death Knight set
Hands: Berserker Gloves
Back: Cloak of Retribution or Cloak of the Cacti
Waist: Belt of Thorns or Belt of Retribution
Shins: Greaves of the Stalwart
Charm: Charm of Thorny Barbs
Charm: Charm of Thorns
Charm: Charm of Barbs

I have one extra Belt of Thorns, one extra Cloak of Retribution, 2 extra Greaves of the Stalwart, one extra Charm of Thorny Barbs, one extra Berserker Gloves, and MANY extra Amulet of Thorns, Plate of the Forge, Charm of Thorns, Charm of Barbs, and Earcuff of Ramparts.

Rachel and I are in

We will take rogue and dwarf/bard/whatever

I'll take Druid, but if someone else really wants it I'll switch to Wizard or Ranger or whatever.

I would love to join the party. Normally end up the Paladin but happy to play anything.

I know I missed my window to sign up, but if anyone drops out, I'm in for whichever slot, Bard preferred if available.
