    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Given their recent talks about updated character models, I don't see them also spending resources on new player races after adding in three over the past two expansions.

    I used to make nearly 60k running Boarding Party. Took like 10 minutes since you could use a speeder and for some reason they had like 5 small chests (2k credits, some greens) and like 3 large chests (6k credits, occasional purple, usually a blue). With selling the boss drops it ended up being...

    Backstory: Devon used to be one of a handful of people adept at making a living in the Barrens of Scarfall. More to the point, he provided protection for any Sifters willing to toss him a Royal or two. Unfortunately, during one such excursion he and his employer were caught in a sudden...

    Back when the wife and I were just engaged I went to visit her during the 4th of July celebrations in Philly. I remember looking across the water at New Jersey and being fascinated that the sky was literally orange as opposed to normal collage of colors. Her comment was, "Yep, that's Jersey."

    Okay, as far as my character goes I have decided on being melee and utilizing the Sellsword archetype. The benefit there being the free Level-Headed Edge which means during Initiative I get two cards instead of one and can take the higher of the two. Will get a full run down after I flesh things...

    Based upon what I'm reading on the listed Archetypes, those without a least a d4 in Fighting end up with a parry of 2. And Vvoid, that is correct. It's 1 point to "buy" a skill, then 1 point to "level" it up to the die of the attached attribute. i.e. if you had an Agility of d8 then you could...

    There is no corresponding raise to any attached skills. For the most part the best benefit to raising an attribute is the ability to take better Edges as you level up and of course better die rolls for anything having to do with that attribute.

    Quick note, Re: Guts skill. For all intents and purposes it's been removed from Savage Worlds as a whole. Here's the text from the latest edition of the core rules: The last note, especially after reading through the rulebook, seems to apply here. Guts does not seem to be something necessary to...

    For spellcasting, there's usually a skill you roll against. For instance the character I use for my Saturday games has the Spellcasting (Arcane) skill so anytime I cast a spell that's what I roll off of. Spellcasting is generally based off Smarts as the ability.

    Went well. A lot of it was getting use to the Roll20 interface and learning the system since Savage Worlds does things a little different than D20 or Pathfinder. We start the larger campaign here next Friday in a setting call RunePunk which is Fantasy Steampunk ala Arcanum but where both...

    For the use of the deck, I would say try to have one or two on hand physically Himeo so if the use of the Roll20 deck is iffy you can still draw cards and we'll keep track of what each person got on the board. Note that each round creates a new draw and whenever someone gets a joker, the deck is...

    I've spent the better part of the last few days trying to quantify my life as a Cowboys fan. I think the last few years have taught me what it was like when Jeff Fisher spent all those years with the Titans. Sometimes good, sometimes bad, mostly just average. There's talent to be seen but...

    I'll confirm. Desktop doesn't have webcam and just as a warning for the first hour I might end up taking a minute or two here or there to settle the kids. SW can be dropped into just about any setting you want. I run with a fantasy group for the Saturdays I play but there's a group down the...

    7:30 EST is a bit early for me too. I would need at least half an hour since that's when I get my kids to bed. I'm okay with not being a part of the group overall but I did want to toss my hat into the ring, just in case it worked out.

    I play as part of a SW group that runs on Saturdays one or two times a month. I'm not familiar with current state of D20 and have never heard of pathfinder but it was really easy for me to get into SW after over a decade away from PnP gaming.

    I don't think anyone has an excuse about knowing which buttons to press when there's an AddOn which tells you which buttons to press (spellflash). Even still, I've seen some shit numbers in LFR, like a healer out DPS'd a Huntard bad.

    Voted for Friday. Would suggest using the Savage Worlds system of gaming as having played both standard d20 and that, SW is much superior. I actually feel like I'm playing a character instead of just another random adventurer. Depending on how a character is built there can also be built in RP...

    I thought the revamped 1-60 experience was the best part of Cata. Too bad the majority of time is spent on other parts of the game. Though, I have to give a thumbs up to the DS dungeon where you get to hang out with Illidan. I thought that one was well done.

    Find something that you don't have but think you might enjoy having and get that. Most everything can be bought off the GTN anyway so it's not like you're entirely gated. Just takes a bit of work to set it up. I knew a guy who didn't pay a cent but still managed to get everything he could out of...

    The true F2P aspect is shit but if ya spend $5 the restrictions become less restrictive overall. It still works hard to funnel you to subscribe though.

    Right. With Dragon Soul the three Heroics were Cata's version of the "catch up" feature that MoP is seeing with Timeless Isle. However, SoO is 14 bosses. ToT was 12. T14 is 16 (I think). There's your resources. Not saying it's good or bad but I think there might be more of a happy medium here...

    This is the first expac where another dungeon didn't get added in at any point in the patch process. BC had one, LK had the entire IC set and Cata had the troll set and the DS set. Cost of a faster than normal patch cycle, I think.
