We will need clerics if we want the wizards to be MEC capable.


I will be able to loan out some eldritch items once I know what I am playing. I have 2 pairs of Boots, 1 rod, 1 ring. Most I would need is 3, but if I end up a ranger or cleric 2. If monk 0?


Good point. MasterEd pointed out in the Friday thread that Jeffagorgon may well have DR. My dwarf Fighter will be using a 3 piece Eldritch Set. Who else?

Also, I'd strongly recommend everyone have a CoS. I will have 3 to lend. I know there will be other spares in this group.

I can loan out 9 CoS's. I can loan out a few relics and a few legendaries as well. But I would rather get everyone into groups and then see what everyone has for gear before starting to sort out loaning gear. imo it is just easier to have everyone in place so we know what classes are being played and what weaknesses and strength any given group has before figuring out additional loant gear.

Both of our guys - Dwarven Fighter and Elf Mage will have the three piece Eldritch sets.

I plan on playing a druid with the cabal set. As for eldritch items I currently only have the boots. A second would definitely improve my healing and would eliminate the need for a level adding item.

Well that is two in Team A with a cabal set. Any more cabal players?


EDIT: I don't know if there will be one board to slide on or a couple and if a Team has to slide on the same board. I would guess so, but I could be wrong about that. If so, I suggest we reduce the number of sliders with smakdown. He has a bigger puck that could block some other sliders. So maybe....and this is just a maybe we move the ranger and monk to another team. Leave the d fighter and paladin because of their taunt and guard.

I'd really like to play Ranger if possible for this one. But if I have to I can play whatever else, although with a much less optimized build.

I'll try to get classes for my two friends (Mauricio and Holly). They have only played TD twice BTW :)

Team A lacks a Cleric currently. If we have a potential cleric with a cabal set, Team A would be the place to be.

I will post a build based on using the Cabal set soon. I do have a CoS, and the eldritch item I have is the boots.

Decisions, decisions - If I use the AoW, that means I can't use the Charm necklace, so I'd limited to MEC, CoH, and CoS - no Charm of Broaching, for instance, to get the Greater Cloak of Destiny. HMMMM...

I have two eldritch items (boots and rod) to help get through the DR and a CoS.

I'm wondering about using my rod to play the subclass (beserker) or saving it for Gencon.

Bard Melissa is not Melissa Lueking. Melissa Lueking from the event signup is listed as Aegoce's friend - rogue here.

I think bard Melissa might be with Henwy.

If Donald Rients is going to use Cabal then I say swap him (and his dwarf fighter friend) with yourself. If there is any bard using Cabal swap out Melissa (if she is not using Cabal) and Hweny with another Bard and Paladin. We should put all the Cabal together. If we end up with two wizards in Team A, I can loan the Paladin a Amulet of Guarding.

I would really like the 4 druids to sort out which of them is not going to be Druid and to hear back from valetutto what his group wants to play.

I sent a message to our 4 Druids and one to Valetutto. You want to send send something to our bards to see if any of them have Cabal?

Donald is willing to switch to Cleric.

If I swap with his son, that gives us a cleric in team A
