TOPIC: Golden Ticket Winners Sign Up Folder

Hey Laz, I'm going to move over to Moongate Combat and Kirk is going to slide to Bard. (Have already discussed with him.) Gives me an opportunity to hear him sing.

that will be great but i dont see you under a differnt spot..which one are you

I was lucky enough to get a golden ticket In this years packs. I am 5/5 wizard or 3/5 Barbadian or fighter.

Since there are no wizards in the moongate combat run I could do that one.

Hey there, my name is Josh and I am still a very new player. I played one game of TD at 2016's Gencon and am now hooked. I got home from GC last year and immediately ordered the $250 set to get the Amulet of Treasure Finding, and then I preordered another $250 set of the 2017's. So I am very new, and I don't have a lot of gear.

I tell you all of this,though, because I am a apparently a very lucky SOB and pulled a golden ticket!

So now I am here asking for advice as to what class I really should play (I think I have an ok Paladin and a good Bard load out for a newb) because I want to play but I don't want to hold the party down. I think I want into the combat run because my puzzle skills last year were lacking.

Any advice is welcome!

That is insanely lucky, congrats! I would say just sign up for whatever class & run you want. Note that the Combat runs have historically been played on Nightmare difficulty. But, if you are ok with it, I'm sure you could borrow some extra tokens from your party members. So I wouldn't worry about it. It will be a blast regardless.

Congratulations!

You should play whichever class you identify with, and not worry about gear too much.

Ask yourself if you would prefer puzzle or combat, and then look at what is available.

I'm sure you will have a great time regardless.

Not to push you away, but you might also be consider trading your golden ticket for a Charm of Avarice. That is a token that goes for about $1200 and gives you between 12 and 14 extra tokens at the end of each run you do. You can't wear your amulet with it, but you would definitely be able to trade that as well.

Whichever choice you make, I'm sure you will be happy.

Thank you Jeff321!

If people are going to run nightmare in combat then that may not work for me since I am very much not equipped for that.

So, Mr. Overlord (or whoever is running sign ups), I will be super flexible. Put me in any of the runs that need to be filled, and my order of classes are Paladin-5, Bard -4, Ranger- 3, Barbarian-2, Druid-1.

I'm going to try and stayed grounded here to the forums from now to Gencon. I am willing to work with the group so we all have fun and so I don't drag us down.

I know I am very excited to play this.

No worries, and thank you for the advice. That amulet sounds tempting but I think I may value the experience more. I've run combat once so for me either sounds great! I only worry about gear because this event seems pretty intense from what I experienced last year, without much forgiveness. Which is great! I love that. I just don't want to die in the first room.

Stan Chen, currently under Moongate Puzzle. You can list me as a Ranger (4/5). Thx!

Don't. The nice thing about having months to prepare is that, odds are, someone or someones in your party will have gear to spare to get you to a Nightmare-worthy build, CoAs included. The only thing people are skittish about lending out are weapons, because everything else can be returned before even leaving the coaching room.

And people love their Nightmare, for the extra 1000xp and rare competition token, if nothing else.

i think its up to date
Let me know if I missed anyone
