TOPIC: True Horde - Saturday Planning

Picc wrote: I should be able to swap to cleric on the fly if team A needs me to. My build wont be nightmare+ (unless someone has a 2 piece eldrich they can lend me) but I should be able to hold my own with the UR glasses / UR baton/ rare gloves etc

That said if a real cleric wonders in Ill happly let them do it.

Sounds good. Though if you wanted to stay with your group we could also use a bard on team C. And I can fill in as cleric for team A. If not I will likely be the bard of team C.

Once we know where everyone is set (and I know what I am playing) I should know how much eldritch stuff I can loan out. Also any of your team using a Cabal set?

I have 3 tickets for this, I'd prefer getting my 3 folks in the same group if we can swing that.

Paladin
Monk
Cleric

are their preferred classes. Not sure if that helps or hurts.
If they need to switch to alternate classes let me know what we need and i'll see what I can make.

Those 3 are at the Nightmare+ level of tokenage.

I will be the spokesperson for those 3 folks but it doesn't include me, sorry if you were hoping for a bard.
Maybe they will come let me lackey for you carry the token bags or something LOL

Updated 1st post.

We can put all 3 in Team C. Monk and Cleric work well. Paladin has already been requested. Fighter maybe? Or maybe a swap can be worked out. Contact Starkhound and see if you can trade.

Will do thanks

Raven offered me the ticket. Richard will be using it. His class preferences goes Dwarf fighter > fighter > fighty class.

Cool. He is in as Fighter on Team B. Works nicely as that puts you, Richard and Melissa together.

It's starting to come together

We still have two unknown players. As things stand they will go to team C. I have decent builds for Wizard and Barbarian I could loan out. I'm sure there are other builds that can be loaned.

I haven't heard from Haasdt. His second choice was Fighter. I think he has a decent potential Cleric build. For the moment I will plug him in as Fighter in Team A.

Cleric for team A. Picc could switch and I could loan him SRoEC and RoSP. I'd lose The ability to bypass DR, but Smak should have this covered and he has pretty high damage potential. Unless someone else has spare Eldritch items to lend. Or I could adapt my son's Druid build and run Cleric. +16 heals, Lens of Divine Sight. The AC isn't great, but with SRoEC, Icecrag Hero Earcuffs and Dragonscale set, he laughs at most elemental damage.

With Cleric covered Jedi can go Bard with Team C.

Some observations.

Our tentative line up has only one Wizard. (That might change depending on our two unidentified players). Paladin may well be guarding Bard in Teams B and C.

Team A seems to have the most potential for Cabal usage.

We have Cleric, Bard and Druid for each team. This is good.

Teams A and B have Rangers. Teams B and C have no wizards. How are we fixed for ranged combat? Bring lots of potions of leaping attack?


Jeffagorgon.

Will this be the gorgon of classical mythology making use of a gaze attack? (Medusa was a Gorgon. The classical Gorgons were all female. Hmmm.)

Or the bovine D&D version making use of a breath attack? Hello IS Irridescent Spindle!

Will Fort be the key save needed?

It is Eric and Jeff. All saves will be important. They will throw everything at us including the kitchen sink would be my guess. I am going to have Gazebo killing bullets just in case.

Greater Alchemist Pouchs recommended also. At WYC he used a sonic attack that destroyed potions

Greater Arcane Scroll tubes might be needed as well.

Eric did this thing in Epic Grind last year where he shattered bard instruments.

Bring back ups of key equipment including weapons.

Hey Jeff & Incog -

I found (the above) in one of the forums threads. Which of you guys let slip about the Kitchen Sink monster? Or are the players just making lucky guesses?


PS: I hope this posts correctly to the SuperSekret Hordes & Hades forum, since I couldn't find the TPKs'R'Us thread anymore.

Remember, potions of leaping attack lasts the entire room.

We're on to you...

I assume that the Charm of Avarice will be useless in the True Horde Run?
