Note that it is currently counting Ranger and Ranger + votes as the same thing. If you go in and count them as separate votes, Ranger is at 5 (tied with both Improved Spellblade and Spellblade). I expect we'll get at least one vote before it closes, but that's important to note for when you count at the end.
Because I don't want to split the votes and have Spellblade win. Also because we already have some skill with a shield, so it's not as pressing to train right now.
I'm assuming that the provided "classes" have reasons for being what they are. One immediately apparent reason is that adding a shield means training time spent on the shield, which in turn is time not spent on things more useful to a ranger. That doesn't mean Lirra can't add a shield later if it fits what her build ends up being, but I don't consider it worth focusing on right now.
I notice that you fine people all have voted for Spellblade. Could I interest you in Improved Spellblade, perhaps? It aims to give us the best parts of Spellblade, but with spear and shield instead of swords, as well as better tactical ability.
Very well, i'll edit
I notice that the biggest thing you like about Commander is that it supports our spear and shield build. I was wondering if I could interest you in Improved Spellblade, as that also has both spear and shield. It also has tactics and command, which are both things that I think will be useful for Lirra.
Fair enough I suppose, do not see anything to oppose that, will edit me vote.
Most of these skills are important. Barter might even be high on list, because I'm pretty sure loot drops aren't a thing in this quest. And it's more important to Lirra, because she has problems with iron, and most weapons and armor has some iron in them. Or more likely entirely made out of it.
Actually, for some reason the tally is counting the votes for Ranger and Ranger + as the same thing. Going through the votes by hand, here is a more accurate count:
Your count seems to be missing Jrin's vote.
I wouldn't say that though? Not only do Improved Spellblade and regular Spellblade have different primary weapons and the inclusion of the Shield, but the attached support Skills are different, which affects the Secondaries people voted for. The only difference of Ranger + is tacking on a Shield.
Thanks, I didn't notice that one. New totals (taking into account Nottheunmaker's new vote):
It's an improved version of the Spellblade, just like Ranger + is an improved version of Ranger. Renu previously posted about how they weren't intending for the write in to be about finagling existing options, which I took to include Improved Spellblade as well, since that's what it was intended to be, an improved version of the Spellblade. That's why I included the combined totals, in case Renu wanted to roll everything into the options that weren't modified.
To make sure I'm understanding correctly, that means the combined totals, right? So:
