It takes years of dedicated training to pull off proper Valyrian snobbishness.

so just ganna mention this once more. we need to redesign a weirwood at the shadow tower becouse it has the same tree twice so i'm just mentioning it again now that we are no longer in massive combat

Duesal · Feb 25, 2020

@Goldfish, I've been meaning to ask -- what gear does our Awakened Adamantine Golem have? IIRC he successfully got that level of Unchained Monk, so a Monk's Belt given to him would be a very good investment. He'd have the AC and unarmed damage of a Monk five levels higher with that piece of equipment.

I don't think we need to design another one so much as remove the duplicate tree.

I'll add some stuff to the crafting schedule for him.

I'll make sure to include it when DP asks us about "what do you guys want to grow?" in accordance to this MA we voted on at the start of the month:

egoo said:
[X] Grow Heart Trees for provinces with active Inquisition Bases (provided enough sacrifices/items are available for that).
-[X] Stepstones
-[X] Tyrosh
-[X] Lys
-[X] Myr
-[X] Braavos
-[X] Pentos
-[X] Mantarys
-[X] Tolos
-[X] Naath
-[X] Eastern Basilisk Isles
-[X] The Three Snakes
-[X] Western Basilisk Isles

Don't worry, your contribution has not gone unnoticed, it's just... well, it'd have been slightly out of place to add to any given vote throughout the tiamat-debacle.

Garin's gun be Darkness Incarnate.
It's too bad we can't just feed Shadow-creatures to him, like S!Tor to make him stronger :/

Would you mind posting in the thread what he'll be getting?

Alright, now that we are done with GC...
There was a general consensus on limiting MAs to the things we can't do without Viserys on it (and which are really quick to be done), and the rest is backgrounded/delegated with the bare minimum of interlude'ism to it.

Here's what I have for things I think we have to do in-person this month, still:

Here's the stuff delegated to our minions (ideally with minimal to no interlude'ing at that):

Here's the stuff completely backgrounded (to a point there's at most a few lines of a report to them):

And here are the things dropped from the voted-on list entirely (mostly b/c we don't have enough Companions/minions free enough on our hands to do such things after the mess GC undoubtedly was on their schedules):

@Azel, @Duesal, @Crake, @TalonofAnathrax, as the people I actually remember voicing issues with MAs, is this list agreeable?
I'm done thinking up new ones, for sure.

I have finally read the whole list. Great stuff, thanks!

@Goldfish You ever get a count on of much munitions we used in that battle from DP?

Here's what I have so far. Nothing too fancy, but lots of good stuff to further enhance his abilities and sure up his few weaknesses, along with a bit of utility. I don't think any of ya'll mind giving him a Mind Blank ring, right? He's not vulnerable to many Enchantment spells, but there are a few (we've made use of them ourselves) and the immunity to Divination cannot be ignored.

Monk's Belt w/Belt of Battle effect	Bahro the Adamantine Golem	1	3100
Gauntlets of Hero's Strength (+4 Strength, +3 Dexterity)	Bahro the Adamantine Golem	1	2500
Circlet of Clarity (+5 Wisdom)	Bahro the Adamantine Golem	1	2500
Anklets of Translocation w/+30ft Enhancement bonus to speed	Bahro the Adamantine Golem	1	510
Upgrade Mind Blank Ring w/+5 Resistance bonus to saves	Bahro the Adamantine Golem	1	2500
Cloak of Dragon's Flight (3/Day Flight of the Dragon spell)	Bahro the Adamantine Golem	1	3024
Ring of Protection (+3 Deflection bonus to AC)	Bahro the Adamantine Golem	1	1800
Amulet of Mighty Fists (+2)	Bahro the Adamantine Golem	1	1600
Goggles of Arcane Acuity	Bahro the Adamantine Golem	1	340

Not yet. I was going to bug DP about it once all the other stuff from the battle (XP, loot, etc.) was taken care of.

With 14 Wyverns involved (each capable of carrying 8 Beetle Bombs) and the Moonchaser's currently undefined payload and rate of fire (gonna assume 4 per round for now), conservatively estimating that they were engaged for 8 rounds, that's 144 Beetle Bombs used. Again, that's just a rough estimate pending word from DP.

Not counting those being produced this month (328 planned for the month), our Beetle Bomb stockpile was at 447 prior to the battle, so we're still doing pretty good there.

And so the Adamantine Golem jumps from being CR19 and being THE WALL straight into being DS-grade cheesewheel and CR... 22-23 I'd say

I approve.

Hm.
I'll look up monk-items tomorrow, maybe we can yet make him punch across the battlefield :drevil:

Crake · Feb 25, 2020

Equipment really only adds one or two CR, TBH, it's quite ill-defined.

Maybe CR 21, definitely not 23.

There are a lot of neat Monk items available, but most of them won't do much good for a level one Monk. You can ignore anything which affects or enhances Ki.

Viserys' and Richard's add 2-3 beyond the class/level-based CR of theirs, easy.
It's very amorphous a system, yes.

The Golem deserves CR 22 with these upgrades, imo - only being able to die to a vorpal attack (highly specific weapon needed), nigh-completely protected from magic (and Mjndblanked on top), great saves (and +5 on them on top), an absolute fucking murder in melee, and with decent mobility (flight, +30 ground movement), too.

The thing he lacks is ranged attacks (preferably carrying his melee strikes far into the distance with some monk bs).

...we can probably put a canon on him, can't we?

egoo · Feb 25, 2020

By the way, had the Hadhayosh Planeshifted back?

I don't think we had any confirmation actually, either on- or off-screen

How much would it cost to upgrade the Amulet of Mighty Fists to the maximum?

I certainly hope this gets covered onscreen as part of the cleanup. But apparently he had a planeshift token.

Waaaay more than it's worth. He's already got a sky high attack bonus, which we're further augmenting with a Strength booster and the +2 Amulet. We also don't need to worry about him being blocked by Damage Reduction, as he will outright ignore anything with less than Epic DR.

The +2 Amulet is only 1600 IM. The +5 Amulet would be 10,000 IM.

Maybe in the future, then. I just like the idea of stuffing him with all the best gear.

Do we actually care for whoever rules Slavers' Bay from the shadows, long as it isn't Asmodeus?
I say, finding his multi-layered plan and ruining it as much as we can, should be the priority.
Our presence had already likely been accounted for, though...

Yes we care.

If the old-school slavers win, who are still trying to prop up an industry that is simply failing because half the world won't deal with them anymore, things will bet worse here.
Cutting out Asmodeus is nice, but not helpful if the following despair creates a Gate-wide opening for Abbadon's rulers next month.
