The Power(Harry Potter/The Gamer)

Even without the back-ground knowledge, I think the approach would be rather obvious. Kill more zombies. Kill lots of zombies. Get lots of experience from killing all the zombies. Then make more zombies.

Anyways, is there a actual cap to our skills? Earlier you were talking with someone about the prodigy stat, and how eventually the skill will cap, but I thought it would just upgrade to the next version of the skill after reaching 100.

1) That's the general idea. But how to best go about that isn't something he knows. He goes in and pulls 1 zombie, kills it, pulls 1 zombie, kills it, and so on. He doesn't get a group, kill them, move on to the next.

2)Undecided. It's going to take a while for you all to get to 100 in a skill anyway. Grinding skills is going to slow down at a certain point.
 
I could swear...

Oh yeah, it was the 6th book. During Fudges conversation with the Prime Minister about Voldemort and his retirement, he mentions that the Dementors breeding causes fog.
Fudge got it wrong, clearly. He's a politician, not a magical creature specialist. Supplementary information from Pottermore lists them as non-beings.

One young Canadian boy earlier asked her how Dementers breed.

"I was just so pleased that he thought about it and pleased that I had the answer," Rowling told The Canadian Press.

These evil creatures don't, by the way, breed but grow like a fungus where there is decay.

Alright, but even assuming he takes 5 minutes per zombie (a very conservative rate), that's 12 zombies a hour. Since he's spending the day doing it, lets say he does it 8 hours, that's 96 zombies.
 
So the current year is 1991? I don't duppose the gm can overlook a 4 year diferance? There is a particularly interesting magic ability that we could grab.
 
gets cut thoughe
Light saber feats>>>>>>> Godrick grifendor's sword feats (and that was a high end gobalin blade)

Hahahahaha.

Oh wow, pull the other one, it's got bells on.

In case you missed it, Goblin Silver is indestructable. As in, it cannot be damaged.

A Lightsaber has no chance in hell of scratching it, let alone cutting through it.

No, I can't. That's why I changed it from 3.5 edition D&D to AD&D.

He doesn't spend a full day in an ID. Yes, there are 7 time slots and 7 days in a week. But those time slots aren't each a day. It was just a convenient number for me for representing a week.

Further, both times you all have picked the dungeon running it's been with conditions. Namely working on class quests. I'm not trying to screw you all over, and I don't offer troll options. That said, I'm also not going to make things super easy for you(The Gamer as a power does that already). If you say you're going dungeon running to advance a class quest, that's what Harry does. If you say you're going dungeon running to grind XP, that is what he'll do.

not to mention the fact that goblin swords absorb things they come into contact with that will improve the blade, so if they clash the sword will end up sheathed in plasma.

What does he do the rest of the day? Assuming whatever he did took 8 hours, and 8 hours are spent sleeping, there is a entire 8 hours left to the day. Lets allot 2 to various meals, and 4 for fun activites (as if beating up zombies isn't fun), that is still 2 hours within which lots of progress can be made.

That little unachieving bastard. Well, next time, his instructions won't leave him any wiggle room to be lazy (mock anger, not real anger).

... Well, that's abusable. And being the Gamer, it's our solemn duty to abuse everything (thing, not one) we can. If we AKed it, would it now be a Insta-Death sword?
 
Hahahahaha.

So if we chucked it into a black hole it would still be intact? Or how about contact with a 40K powersword?

Indestructible is only in universe we have to look at feats. Also pretty sure fiend fire can destroy it IIRC.

Generic narrative filler. He's not a grinding bot, dude.

Probably not. Basilisk venom and fiendfire are both things that can destroy horcruxes. Basilisk venom gets absorbed into the sword, so fiendfire would probably give burning properties to the blade.

No, but he can do easy stuff automatically. Like picking a lock 10 times. If you could easily make yourself better at something, with minimal effort and a hour or two of your time, wouldn't you?
not sure it would work with actual magic IIRC the actual quote is something like "They imbibe only that which makes them stronger"
Maybe, maybe not. If it can imbide the AK, then awesome. If not, well, we at least know where we can acquire easy sources of Basilisk Venom to imbibe it with.
 
Man, I don't know about you, but when I spend 8 hours doing something it isn't killing the same zombie over and over.
Not the same zombies. Different zombies. And killing zombies is fun, especially when you are getting stronger while doing it. Plus, after killing so many zombies (don't remember the number) you get a Boss Zombie.

@Halpo133 How much longer till Hogwarts starts?
BTW, I found the scene, and the only thing it showed besides the Auto-Enter option, is that there is a Video and Sound tab as well.

Dude let it go we are plenty OP as is even if we level slower than Han we will be high tier in this verse by the end of tear one. So let the OP be
 
So I'm curious, how do you all feel about getting one of the negative stat traits, like weak for example, to get some trait points we could spend to buy a positive trait?

No reason to settle for less when we don't need to.
And I'm only still talking about it because others are, if you notice my response to Halpo it was basically "Alright then, we will be sure to be more specific", accepting what he has decided, and doing the thing he implied we do.

I don't think we should. We aren't exactly on a time-crunch after all, and as is it's only 5 more points added to whatever.
 
They give 8 points I believe, and as things currently are we won't be able to get any of the higher point traits till level 15, or 20 if we want a 10 pointer.

But we don't really need those traits. Even without them our development is well ahead of the curve, we take them and sooner or later they are going to gimp us.

I would rather avoid the negative traits until we NEED a positive trait.

3 points every 5 levels. Since we are going to be focusing on those 8 pointers, that means a new trait every 9 levels (roughly).
Really, getting 5 levels shouldn't be that hard once we start controlling Harry properly. The main reason it's taking so long, is cause the way we are telling Harry to grind, he does what we say (level up the class quest) and stops.
Things should definitely speed up once we start Hogwarts and get tons of quests from all the class assignments (quests can also sometimes give Trait Points).

Alright works for me.

Also @Halpo133 I've been doing some experimenting with the info table and I think it would be a good idea to get rid of the rooms category and either move the info into a different tab or if you wish to keep it as its own thing make a new table for it, as it currently is its causing everything to be indented some. Another idea would be to rename the Class Quests tab to just quests and have that be where we store all quest data, like the class quests and any others we pick up like the one to cure Neville's parents.
