Do you think gestalt is cool in 4+ PC parties or think it's kinda bad?

Old Thread: >>52829141

>>52836240

I think it's useful when the party uses it for fluff more than mechanics.
>>
Gestalting has it's place, and I think it can definitely be cool as long as everyone is okay with it and it isn't abused purely for the purpose of being more powerful. Like a Fighter doesn't want to go Paladin, but wants to be a healer/supporty frontliner so he gestalts Cleric.

Gonna ask this again because nobody responded the first few times. Anybody have experience with the Dark Elementalist archetype? Any way to make it good? I know LK2 has a pair of feats that make it playable, but what archetypes can I stack on top of it to have more fun with it? Let's assume I'm using the Legendary Kineticist in place of the standard one. Got any good gestalt advice for it? For 1pp and 3pp games, let's assume it's Jollystuff and DSP only

>>52836240
Here are my rules on Gestalt, alright

>1-2 PC party
Gestalt is fine. Pet classes will usually be okay'd
>3-4 PC party
Gestalt is a little finnicky here, though I'd encourage the players to focus more on their specialty. Pet classes will go under scrutiny
>5-6+
Fuck no, gestalt with any more than 4 people is cancer, plain and simple
>>
>>52836240
I'm personally of the opinion that Gestalt is bad outside of some very specific circumstances.

While a lot of players want to be amazing at everything, purity of purpose is honestly kind of important, as the more you spread into, the more you feel like you have to cover, and by design, Gestalt characters are almost always covering at least three roles, and for all that people try to make unique individuals, there's always overlap for the roles.

I don't even know what all the classes in my last gestalt game were, because they were basically just a flat fucking amalgamation of traits and abilities that there was nothing to define them. One was a monk - i have no idea what her secondary class was, because all she ever did was monk shit. Another was some kind of superduelist, dipping into vitalist, aegis, and at least two other classes - no idea what the build was. Another was a complete healbitch paladin, only ever doing healing and face stuff (rarely). My character was a brutal grappler that the only reason they knew what she was is because she was an aberrant aegis focused on grappling - the mass of tentacles is a tad difficult to hide in light of that.

I can't even remember the others; they were too generic, too... flat. Just collections of abilities with no defining feature.

I hate that. i despise that, in fact, and furthermore it makes it really difficult for a GM to make a damn encounter because they have so much shit to memorize just to be certain that the characters aren't going to faceroll everything (like mine did several times)

So is Gestalt good? No, not in my opinion. It's workable when you have an undersized party but for the love of god don't do it to a group large enough for it to cause problems. At that point keeping normal characters straight is enough of a hassle without doubling up.
>>
>>52834995
>>52835070
I just finished reading over the Avowed, the Selfpact, and the Betrothed archetype. I'm disappointed to realize that they're incompatible, as you can only take the Betrothed archetype if you don't have an esoteric pact (which means no Selfpact).

If you were only not allowed to "just because" then maybe the DM could be convinced to allow an exception, but the Betrothed archetype makes you trade out your Pact Empowerments for Betrothed Empowerments and seeing as Betrothed Empowerments don't exist for Selfpact, the DM would probably need to homebrew custom Betrothed Empowerments (if they don't just let me keep the Pact Empowerments).

That's disappointing, this is a character for Overlewd so I don't think I can get an exception like that. I'll ask MaximumSleep about it, but I'm not very hopeful and should probably look into other options.
>>
>>52836510
Refluffing a different pact into Self would work, basically.

>>52836436

What?
I mean, that's just as much definition as a single classed character could ever get.
>>
So after some googling, I can't seem to find a consensus answer for this: How the hell does Flyby Attack work with action economy?

>When flying, the creature can take a move action and another standard action at any point during the move. The creature cannot take a second move action during a round when it makes a flyby attack.

Does it give you an extra move and standard, or does it let you split your move around your standard? The clause saying that the creature cannot take a second move action during a round when it makes a flyby attack seems to contradict the first clause. Am I reading this wrong?

And do you provoke an attack of opportunity from your target if you attack and move past? It seems like you shouldn't if the feat is modeled after Ride-By Attack, but the feat doesn't say you don't

>>52836597
Those are actions, not mechanical definitions. Each oif them had way, WAY more abilities than just defined by those "roles" and I can't even remember half of them because they were so unfocused. the CHA healer? don't even know what the second half of her build was. It was just a paladin that was MAYBE one side because she had lay on hands - I have no idea what the other side was.

>>
>>52836555
Yeah, I considered how I could still make the character concept work with Avowed, and I think the options are either to use a different pact and say that pact is responsible for bringing my character and herself together in the same timeline/universe OR play Selfpact without Betrothed and give up on her being able to adventure alongside herself. I'm more attached to my character concept than the build right now and the concept includes "adventures alongside herself" as a pretty important part, so that strikes out the latter as an option. I think at this point I'll either be taking a patron pact and having my PC's alternate version be her patron, or just finding a different class to use like Spiritualist, and refluff the Phantom.

I kinda agree with >>52836641, but that's why I better like the idea of taking a pact where my PC's alt self could plausibly be the kind of creature that you pact with. I'll have to look at all the other pacts now, though, since I didn't before. Which pacts do you think could have a partner that's a powerful humanoid, rather than something like a demon or angel?

Nah, the GM was just thrust into the position because the last one bailed and she didn't want the game to go under. She wasn't ready for it, and the result was unfortunate.

the party's great, and we've been having a lot of fun since we started a single-classed Kingmaker game; outside of a few frustrating moments, anyways, but those happen in every game that's finding its footing.

>the only times I've gotten to play in small parties the GM didn't know what gestalt was and didn't use it, while wondering why the two PCs were constantly scrambling to cover their asses

Gestalt looks like something great for small parties, it's just too bad I've yet to actually play it in a small party. A chance to unironically play a Bardadin or an Investigus would be great, let alone trying out a pet/summons class without being paranoid about holding up the other 4 players with my stupid long chain of actions.

Shokugeki no Souma, a cooking manga drawn by Hisasi, who used to (and might still) do porn. This semen demon is the heiress to a meat company who specializes in high-intensity meat dishes. She's sort of the first 'enemy' the protagonist faces in the series, and eventually becomes a friend and love interest.

She typically cooks in shorts and a bikini top, ignoring the pain of the oil and fat splatter on her huge titties as the marbled cuts caramelize and render down in a screeching hot pan.

Honestly, there probably wouldn't be too much salt if that happened. To understand why, let's compare and contrast with PLD:
>Overlewd's premise implies a certain level of agency, PLD requires your characters to get raped
>Overlewd's apps are mostly slutty, PLD built up hype by having innocent or cheerful characters getting turned into rape-bait
>Overlewd is being run by some silent no-name, PLD's GM made a point of being notoriously shitty

There's no fanboys drooling over which characters are "pure" because almost all of them are clearly just there to get laid and fuck some peaceful kingdom's shit up. PLD built up hype by baiting people into caring with "These characters are going to get raped and you can't stop it." So when lewd shit does start going down, we're just going to shrug it off and go "Yeah, so?"

I think Andrik and Branwen are getting in, and maybe Viviana too. Only thing is, she might be stepping to close to Branwen's shoes, what with both being cute girls with redemption arcs. So if Branwen doesn't make it, I think Viviana will. Aside from that, I have no idea who will fill out the remaining two slots. My personal bias is that a party of four doesn't need more than one full caster, so if I were picking that would mean Antoinette and Evelyn and a few other good apps wouldn't get in because Branwen already fills that spot. I'm not picking though, so who knows? Andrik fills the knightly niche in the same way, but Kyras might stand out as different enough to fit into a party alongside him and is interesting.

Don't see a 3.5 thread, and this is the closest thing. I have a quick question I need answered.

I'm having my PCs encounter a mimic. If they're unable to determine its a mimic before they're too close, and I get the surprise to go for a grapple, do I just deny that PC their Dex or do I also not give them an attack of op?

>>52838521

It's Evelyn

Maybe it's just a retrospective but I'm at the, "What was I thinking?" moment. Even from a mechanics angle I should've gone for something more interesting like a spheres Oracle but one day out I think that Wubu has probably pretty much solidified a lot of his ideas.

You've got the TTG-equivalent of buyer's remorse. You just finished putting down some investment and now you're second guessing yourself on whether you made the right choice. I think thats pretty normal.

I like Evelyn, if that makes you feel better. There's still time to keep working on your app if you want, too. If you want advice from a nobody that didn't even have the guts to apply at all, I think Evelyn should have more motivation than just wanting to help people. Give her something that she wants to do for herself, it will humanize her more because no real person only wants to help others. Even if you want to keep the focus on her compulsive need to make up for her past deeds, you should probably be able to fit in some kind of guilty pleasure or something.

Alright, a quick summary:
-Considerably bigger versatility in character build ideas. With the discipline switching methods, you can basically pick and choose what disciplines you want on the class chassis that you prefer.
-Ranged options, although limited. Plus, ranged still works with defensive/movement maneuvers so there's a chance you might pick a melee-strike only discilpine just for swift action teleports and the counters.
-Lower optimization floor. This is both a pro in that there's no real trap choices, but a con in that it will force the rest of the party to use a certain degree of optimization lest they get left behind. Similarly, the DM will have to build encounters around your abilities
-Significantly increased damage output. Short of natural attack builds, archerdin, ubercharger and a couple others, non PoW characters won't be able to keep up in damage with a damage-focused build.
-Limited noncombat utility. Most of the versatility you'll get from PoW is in combat-buffs/debuffs, movement mode enablers, and bonus senses. There's a few extra things here and there, but in most cases this is what you get. However, initiators are encouraged to get some decent skill modifiers and mental scores due to class features/maneuvers heavily encouraging such.
-Broken Blade is outright busted in damage potential, Primal Fury is too strong with natural attack builds, and some other disciplines could use a rebalance as well.

With 2hander builds it isn't that stronger when compared to other disciplines. The Frenzy strikes go crazy with a bunch of natural weapons in the pack, which is what causes most of the damage issues.

What's the trick to ultimate skill monkey-ness, /pfg/? I don't mean just having the most ranks per level, I mean the biggest bonuses to your skills on top of full ranks and being able to use those skills for actually useful things. Do I need a lot of Skill Unlocks? Which ones are best?

Guardian Spirit does the exact same thing, only without the hassle of a second character.

>>
>>52839303

The Investigator is probably the way to go.

You're a 6+INT skill ranks on an INT based class so if you don't have oodles of skills you're doing it wrong, Inspiration gives you a number of +1d6 or 1d8 to many skill rolls and with proper talent allocation you can do that for free on a lot of your skills.

Signature Skill would eat up a lot of feats, but on the other hand most skill unlocks aren't really that good.

Except be an Empiricist Half-Elf and take its Investigator FCB (+1/4th level to anything you add inspiration to). Take Skill Focus (Linguistics) and Orator. Congratulations, you're now the party face AND the party knowledge monkey. Your only weakness is that you're going to suck absolute dick in combat if your GM isn't using feat-tax rules and starting you at level 3.

You don't need to open a portal into your magical realm, just a portal into her pants. And a portal like that... It's easy enough to hide.

Investigator is something I was considering, yeah. The main thing that's holding me back is that I I more want new things to do with skills than just being better at skills. Both would be ideal though. I'd consider Unchained Rogue if I liked more of the skill unlocks.

My only real complaint is that it's basically feat-taxed Master Craftsman in order to access magical crafts.

Gnolls have gross warped bodies. They're also not 8 feet tall, especially since that would make them Large mechanically. this character's weight is also well below where it should be for her listed height which, again, is wildly inaccurate. so I must assume they are very skinny. NOT thicc

The troll should also be gross, but the backstory mentions being created by wizards. Wizards have no sense of right or wrong so maybe it's believable. Either way she seems more of a musclegirl which is not the same as thicc. POSSIBLY thicc

Umbrane had the highest weight/height ratio if I remember which does imply thicc, but she also has a tail, wings, and extra heads. but perhaps the player didn't factor these things into the weight because the character art is definitely thicc. LIKELY thicc

Look, even though you only basically have the same power you would otherwise as a single character, the two characters combined do have several advantages.

For one thing, just "splitting your attacks" is already a small boon against larger numbers of weaker foes. The ability for multitargeting helps, the extra perception checks help, you're basically getting to be in two places at once AND adding up to very-marginally more than the sum of your parts.

I can see that, but at the same time

1) It's able to transfer enchantments between weapons, so it's only a problem if you have NO crafter at all (and it's only weapons you *made* yourself, not enchanted yourself)

GM said the following to us, wondering if people agree with it:
>I try and play enemies as smart as they're meant to be. I'd be being really generous if I said I was 12 int, I'm probably closer to 9 or 8, so enemies you fight with shit like 20-24 int are gonna be as fucking clever as I can make them.

But shit is really fucking hard. Especially with shit like hobgoblins, he keeps saying "they're career soldiers, they don't take stupid risks if they lived past the first few years". I just don't want to get ass fucked by hobgoblins all the time. It's bullshit.

One of the worst was two hobgoblins with the run feat that lead us into an ambush.

This sounds like a really great encounter. Well thought-out, fair but challenging as the enemies have the advantage, fits the creatures' tactics too. What's the problem, here? Are you upset the hobgoblins didn't just engage you on flat terrain and let you shit all over them?

Couldn't get over fast enough. When our fighter tried the hogbolins focused their fire on him and he went unconscious.

They didn't go for the kill after knocking people out. Our druid, who knew goblinoids, hear the commander shouting to make sure to leave us alive for interrogation.

No you can't Stand users don't have verbal and somatic components. Stands aren't outsiders. Stands aren't magical beasts.

The only way you're emulating a Stand User is being a Psychic Caster or Psionic Class.
>>
>>52840676
no i can't
>>
>>52840683
Stands can be anything famalam

I can be a Stand user by being an Oracle with that one curse that locks them into a location
>>
>>52840683
Alternatively be a Sphere Caster with NO drawbacks taken. That's the most accurate way to simulate stand attacks.
>>
>>52840704
pretty sure we've got an animebabby here in the middle of part 3 who thinks all stands are humanoids that battle their enemies by attacking them

in which case, avant guard kineticist is, in fact, the best choice
it even makes you put loads of points into CON, helping emulate how absurdly tough everyone is in jojo
>>
>>52840704
No they can't.

There is no instance of a stand being rendered non functional by the user being unable to talk and usually by the user being unable to move
>>52840724
He's referring to Sugar Moutnain from Part 7. Stands come in a variety of forms.

FUCKING NONE OF THEM ARE PROPERLY EMULATED BY A VANCIAN CASTER WITH VERBAL AND SOMATIC COMPONENTS
>>
>>52840752
fuck anime

So a magical weapon's price is jut determined by the bonus given by whatever magic power it has right? So all magic powers that list themselves as a +1 bonus in theory will cost the same?

Is ORAORAORAORAORA not a verbal component?

When has a Joestar ever NOT struck a fucking amazing pose when using a stand? Checkmate gaytheists

>>52840752
kakyoin's stand sure as hell didn't work when he couldn't move in the world, anon :^)

verbal and somatic components are actually great for a stand character because they force you to strike bizarre poses and shout the names of your attacks loudly
>>
>>52840752
>Somatic Components
Chocolate Disco
Mandom
Any stand that functions around an object
Any stand that has a signature trigger action, like Kira pressing his thumb to activate his bombs

>Verbal components

>There is no instance of a stand being rendered non functional by the user being unable to talk and usually by the user being unable to move
In a Silent Way likely would be stopped if Sandman was rendered unable to make noise.
>>
>>52840776

Yup, a Keen Longsword and a Flaming Longsword cost the same.
>>
>>52840785
>Is ORAORAORAORAORA not a verbal component?
It's not. It's a vocalization the user makes. It by no means is necessary for the stand to be able to use it's powers.

Stands are literally psychic manifestations.
>When has a Joestar ever NOT struck a fucking amazing pose when using a stand?
Several times. Not to mention all the non Joestar stand users.

That's just a Japanese trope they do because anime.

>>52840807
>the user makes
its the stand that makes those noises you nincompoop
>>
>>52840831
It's both sometimes. And in that case it's the effect making the noise, and it isn't necessary for the effect to take place. Stands are (usually) projections of psychic power. They are the "spells" in this instance. Crazy Diamond wouldn't stop working because he can't say "DORA DORA".

Bad, only way I would ever allow Gestalt in a 4+ PC party was if I were running some kind of theme. Like this game is sort of a kung-fu action flick you all get gestalt in Monk, or you're a traveling group of performers and get gestalt in Bard. etc. You all come from a tribe of lion shamans, you all get gestalt in Druid (Lion Shaman) etc.

This specific instance is for Overlewd, but you can extend it to in general afterwards
>>
>>52840901
the user doesn't actually control the stand beyond ordering it what to do, in most cases
>>
>>52836625

You're probably reading it wrong, somehow.
You take one move action during which at any point you can take a standard action, it's more like spring attack then Ride-By Attack, except that you do provoke an Attack of Opportunity. (Which is usually worked around by having superior reach/altitude or using acrobatics)
>>
>>52840805
Is it the same for all types of weapons with the same enhancement? So like a merciful long sword and merciful great axe or something both cost two thousand? Also, if caster level doesn't really have any impact on cost, is there any reason to take a compassionate weapon over a merciful weapon?
>>
>>52840933
That's blatantly false outside of automatic/parasitic stands though.
>>
>>52840955
a merciful weapon is straight up better, because to kill a creature with nonlethal requires you to have dealt 2x their total HP. Something you are highly unlikely to do.
That and Golden Legion's Stayed Blade is straight up better than Compassionate.
>>
Anons, is the greatest Quality Build for Gestalt a Fractured Mind/Exciter Spiritualist // Paladin going an archery route?
>>
>>52840955
>two thousand
no, they'd cost eight thousand because you can't have a merciful longsword
it has to be a +1 merciful longsword
>>
>>52840922
Well I think THICCest in Overlewd has been answered.

THICCest overall? Someone from one of the Dragons games for sure. Probably Freyda. Perhaps Umbranae could out-THICC her, but I don't think that comparison should be made when Overlewd doesn't have a real roster.
>>
>>52840683
When anon says he wants to be a stand user, I don't think he's concerned with it actually being accurate to the manga. I think he just wants to have a powerful entity that he summons and fights for him.
>>
>>52841000
CALSI WILL DOMINATE THE THICC
>>
>>52838564
I don't think 3.5 has surprise rounds, it would start a grapple and everyone rolls initiative from there.

Regardless the PC would be flat-footed and unable to make an AoO unless they had the combat reflexes feat.
>>

But how will she make her figure even thicker?

Well yes, but you only answered half of the question.

>implying the shapeshifter won't outdo them all when they're bored

How can non-shapeshifters even compete?
>>
The bannerman is a combatant of grace and skill, and his faith in both himself as a symbol as well as in his allies assists his defense. When fighting with a ranged weapon (such as with a bow or a crossbow), or with a one-handed or light weapon in one hand nothing in the other (or with a buckler and/or an inspiring banner, see below) and wearing medium or lighter armor, the bannerman gains a +1 dodge bonus to his Armor Class per four warlord levels.
This ability replaces the bonus feat gained at 1st level.
Does this mean that if I wear no armor it won't work?
Or is it still working?
>>
>>52840874

>>52841002
Then you're either wrong,a mind reader, or Anon is fucking stupid and should have said summoner.

Stand User implies a certain set of features and criteria. If you don't want to be as accurate to the idea of a Stand User as possible, then don't fucking say stand user.

It's like saying "I want to be Luffy" and deciding he just wants to punch things and not engage with the stretchy arm stuff.

medium or lighter armor should also include no armor by RAI
but by RAW it would turn off if you didn't have armor on
>>
>>52840991
I'm checkign the nonlethal damage rules and I think all it says is when nonlethal damage exceeds current total hit points the creature falls unconscious. Compassionate just deals normal damage but when they go under they immediately set to -1 hp and stabilize. The golden legion feat does exactly the same but it costs a whole feat.
>>52840998
Fug. Figuring out the costs of magic stuff has always seemed kinda complicated to me. I don't suppose there's a calculator for it somewhere is there?

Calsi has the better hourglass figure, but if you're talking about actual T H I C C, then Freyda's currently topping it I think.

>>52841264
>but if you're talking about actual T H I C C

Uhh... An hourglass figure *is* thicc, it's an emphasis on the thickness of sex characteristics of which Calsi has huge examples of.
>>
>>52841306
Dragons2 measurements are all done in terms of Rinkas

1 rinka weighs 50 lbs and is 3'4" tall.

>>52841318
delet this.
>>
>>52841271
Right, so

The plan was always to have half-dragon form be like 7 feet tall and thicc and for the True Dragon size increases to reflect on tiddy size (and perhaps hips, butt, etc). This plan is still in place.

On top of that Eagle asked me if I'd be okay with a "growth spurt" for Calsi's human form and thought gaining half-dragon form would be a good spot for it. We didn't plan any other specifics for it.

You can have a narrow waist and still be THICC, you know.

Hell, I'd argue a narrow waist emphasizes the thickness of the hips and chest more than having some padding around the middle.

What's a good thematic gestalt for a True Primitive Raging Cannibal Barbarian? I'm trying to come up with a good one.
