00:15:16 Devastator:
MJ is playing a drug-addict hypervelocity catgirl.
00:16:13 Devastator: I think it's mostly that I'm having no issue finding things to do without more chaos in the world.
00:16:35 Devastator: and if there is chaos, I'll have to jump right back into spending my next year working on thing X, after just spending a year working on thing X.
00:17:31 Devastator: except in that case there will be no end in sight.
00:17:37 Devastator: granted, it would be a reason to need higher stats.
00:17:49 Devastator: so you'd get to see me use some mana for selfish reasons. ;-p
00:18:09 Devastator: (I would do so anyway. Probably going to be a 3-digit payoff, if this gets pulled off without massive casulties.)
00:18:44 PW: We'll see how other people feel, but I would say not to really worry about it too much. It is gonna be a thing, but not the sort of thing you can't avoid. More like something to go deal with if you want.
00:19:58 Devastator: Yeah, but you know me.
00:20:09 Devastator: something happening, I gotta do things backwards.
00:20:42 ER: how does a medivial crusader react to the sound of an LMG firing for a few seconds, maybe two meters from his face.
00:20:43 PW: then it won't matter if you do it backwards or forwards
00:21:00 PW:
ER: probably like "OW FUCK MY EARS"
00:21:24 Devastator: I did build a racecar.
00:21:28 Devastator: it just happens to look like a cat with wings.
00:23:52 Devastator: .but yeah, IC it'd be hard to avoid, too.
00:24:00 Devastator: magic healer with rapid transportation.
00:24:09 Devastator: magic dying and things breaking due to disasters..
00:28:00 Devastator: ahh, well, just let me do some exploring and outfitting first and it'll be ok, ok?
00:35:54 Devastator: ahh, imaginary corruption.
00:38:02 ER:
PW how much endurance does the standard magebreaker armor take to wear?
00:39:27 PW: (I think that means it needs d8? Been a while)
00:39:57 ER: ah good, so no need to go deep into the diminishing returns area to wear it
00:40:05 Devastator: well, you also have lightweight.
00:40:12 Devastator: so make it d6 instead.
00:40:32 ER: The probably puts enchantments on it pretty standard.
00:41:09 ER: Though that might make me valuable to them because I can put people in heavier armor classes...
00:41:55 Devastator: I'd love to have you make a lightenging bag of holding for me too..
00:42:19 Devastator: ..Can birb use d12 of armour, or does the flight requirement limit that some?
00:42:50 PW: I mean it could use d12 and fly, though it won't be quite as fast or nimble and extra weight won't help
00:43:12 PW: unless the armor is made of something very light
00:43:35 ER: hmm, vending machine doesn't sell full body prosthesis. Guess that's pretty inevitable.
00:43:44 Devastator: so probably use d12 anyway, that sounds like you're likely to forget it.
00:43:53 Devastator: nah, cap at d8 most likely.
00:44:00 Devastator: higher is likely brutally expensive.
00:44:51 ER: oh yeah
PW, did you put money in my card through some mysterious circumstance or did you just miss the minus sign in front of the 500 Omni in my character sheet?
00:45:34 ER: Because I assumed that's what I was supposed to do when you said -500 Omni when I had 0
00:46:06 PW: Did you find an omni card on a body or am I connecting that to someone else?
00:46:09 ER: I mean, it would have made sense for them to just let me die because this is a dystopic world but you do you
00:47:03 ER: I'll gladly claim that I found a card on a body if I means that I'm not in debt and thus get to have fun things.
00:51:20 PW: If you didn't find a card, then you are at 0
00:51:49 PW: but the card would READ 0 till you hit 0
00:52:01 ER: I think that's a bad game mechanic, but okay.
00:53:25 PW: I think you're a bad airplane mechanic
00:53:45 ER: guess I'll do nothing because if I get cut in half again I'll be even farther in the red.
00:54:03 Devastator: still hoping to filtch a promotion and retire intact. ;-p
00:55:17 Devastator: and by stealing it, I mean taking the pay increase and then quitting. ;-p
01:01:16 PW: "Yeah thanks for the bonus, I'm out of here nerds"
01:01:47 Devastator: How much is a ticket home?
01:22:14 midnightjaguar has joined #einsteinianroulette
01:22:36 Devastator: also responded to you in Cabal,
ER.
01:22:36 midnightjaguar:
Dev where are the lizard people in bird game?
01:22:59 Devastator: On the other side of the river, presumably. You know they're attacking at some poin.
01:23:21 Devastator: you don't know where exactly, though.
01:23:30 midnightjaguar: Hmm. And I’m just supposed to slow them down until the lizards can attack right?
01:24:28 midnightjaguar: Also is my health supposed to still be at full?
01:25:19 midnightjaguar: ...oh wait that’s not me.
01:25:25 midnightjaguar: But only kind of
01:25:29 Devastator: Your stat box is accurate.
01:25:31 Devastator: And you did get shot.
01:29:33 midnightjaguar: How high would we need to get to get out of bow range? And could they get another shot in while we did that
01:30:06 Devastator: It'd be a roll, but you'd be getting a +1 to avoid being hit, due to trying to evade.
01:30:16 Devastator: And yes you can fly high enough to be out of bow range.
01:30:36 midnightjaguar: Could we still drop rocks on them with some hope of accuracy’s
01:31:02 Devastator: Landing a hit wouldn't be impossible, but expect to miss.
01:35:09 midnightjaguar: Can I scatter caltrops with any better accuracy?
01:36:18 Devastator: Caltrops work differently.
01:37:01 Devastator: You don't try to hit directly with caltrops.
01:37:45 midnightjaguar: Ah, do I try to get it in front of them while they move?
01:38:09 midnightjaguar: Or could I scatter some right now so they’d have a hard time getting out of the circle.
01:38:32 Devastator: Do remember that you only have six of them in the bag.
01:38:46 Devastator: Graf has another bag.
01:40:11 midnightjaguar: Hmm how big of a circle are they in and how difficult would it be for swifterunnerd to avoid caltrops?
01:42:08 Devastator: They're not bumping into each other, but they're pretty close.
01:42:25 Devastator: say a 20' diameter circle.
01:42:47 midnightjaguar: Could graf and dunkus scatter caltrops so that it completely surrounds them?
02:00:00 Devastator: Also Saeko's not tiny since the grow spell. ;-p
02:01:14 Devastator: Hey, good idea to push that, she'll shrink you. ;-p
02:01:43 ER: then I'll be smoll and eat you
02:03:56 Devastator: Anyway, posted again. Asking about pay.
02:07:21 Devastator: Please request a demo you pay for, I'd love a permaboost on someone else's mana. ;-p
02:13:26 midnightjaguar has quit [Quit: Mutter: www.mutterirc.com]
02:29:34 ER:
PW, how much would it cost to get armor that provides d10 protection, and how much mana would it take to permanently make it wearable at d8 End?
02:30:19 ER: Also, is there any penalty to wearing something like a d8 protection armor when I have the stats for it?
02:41:01 Devastator: doing
MJ's turn first, because he's the only one risking death.
02:43:59 Devastator: And.. Dunkus is down.
02:44:36 midnightjaguar has joined #einsteinianroulette
02:44:45 midnightjaguar: Aww, is dunkus down?
02:49:18 Devastator: This'll take a minute.
02:49:31 Devastator: OK, and this might matter.
02:49:39 Devastator:
MJ, what do you think was going on?
02:50:12 Devastator: Where do you think Dunkus was?
02:53:33 Devastator pokes midnightjaguar
02:54:58 midnightjaguar: Oh sorry. Was AFK for a sec
02:55:45 Devastator: Just asking since you were on. I'll need this for next turn more than this one.
02:56:10 midnightjaguar: Hmm. Lemme think about the answer to that. I’ll have it by tommorow.
02:56:53 midnightjaguar: Or are you trying to write the turn right now?
02:57:03 Devastator: I can wait, that's fine.
02:57:23 Devastator: gimmie a minute,
ER, writing weirdness.
02:58:13 Devastator: Well, good time to make that save.
03:02:52 Devastator: Sweet jesus how many int rolls are you going to make?
03:04:18 midnightjaguar: Hahah. My luck has returned!
03:05:05 Devastator: Four in a row, btw.
03:05:14 Devastator: getting a lot more exposition than I was expecting to write..
03:14:54 midnightjaguar: And man, I just got owned by that archer
03:14:54 midnightjaguar: Well hopefully my squad managed to get clear.
03:15:22 Devastator: didn't roll for them, actually.
03:16:27 Devastator: I have been thinking of what the hell would happen to you if you died here for a while.
03:16:40 midnightjaguar: Heh, well it looks very cool.
03:17:01 midnightjaguar: I like the visuals.
03:30:39 Devastator: hope that wasn't insultingly low.. you're probably carrying around hundreds of gold worth of jewellry.
03:31:27 Devastator: Eh,
PW won't be cheap.
03:31:36 ER: how deflated is gold in this world? :P
03:32:19 Devastator: There are currencies smaller than it.
03:32:26 Devastator: but I'm paying my guards one gold a week.
03:32:37 Devastator: so 15 is pretty good pay on an absolute scale.
03:32:53 Devastator: plus you get to go find another mage and drain mana.
03:33:12 ER: Zavi isn't a mercenary, she doesn't know how much to ask. :P
03:33:55 Devastator: well, spells are definately the better deal.
03:33:56 ER: depends what the magebreakers say too. If they want to let me join and give me good equipment, that might count as a better offer. :P
03:34:11 Devastator: What if they want you to prove yourself? IE, I get one real one, and you.
03:34:39 Devastator: and you do well, you're in.
03:34:39 ER: they'd probably share scroll words
03:35:15 Devastator: just speculating, in case
PW reads this.
03:35:18 Devastator: I could see that happening.
03:36:14 midnightjaguar has quit [Quit: Mutter: www.mutterirc.com]
03:38:19 Devastator: tbh, the spell option would be 'free d6 up front, free d6 after.'
03:38:23 Devastator: with the option of you buying more.
03:39:30 Devastator: probably better than 15 gold.
03:43:08 Devastator: what is a box of painting golem, anyway?
03:43:27 ER: it's a box with a painting golem in it
03:44:00 ER: it was hostile, but I weakened it enough that it can't really do anything. should still be alive though.
03:45:15 Devastator: ..That's extremely interesting.
03:45:34 Devastator: I wonder if it can be used to make self-poered items.
03:46:59 Devastator: I'd pay you to be allowed to hug it.
03:57:27 Devastator: I wanted to hug the pet monster.
04:14:49 Devastator:
ER had some questions earlier.
04:14:50 ER: What mechanical benefit would I gain from casting Lightweight on some heavy armor, if any?
04:15:26 PW: lower end requirements, less chance of malus depending on action
04:16:23 ER: does normal armor get heavier than d8? That's the "heavy armor" that counts as a great item in character generation
04:16:54 PW: but would probably need magic
04:17:15 Devastator: similar for weapons, I'm assuming?
04:17:19 PW: hard to do more than full plate and still be...able to move much
04:17:50 ER: ...Would increasing the protection of armor with magic increase the End requirement?
04:18:17 ER: kinda sounds like End requirements effectively max out at d8
04:18:33 ER: unless you want to be Havel and make it out of stone or some shit.
04:19:16 Devastator: It'd probably be easier to strengthen something up to d10 if I let the end requirement increase.
04:19:29 Devastator: or if you do so with, say, 'heavy'
04:19:57 PW: depends on HOW you increase the protection. If you increase it by just making the armor thicker, it would increase end. but if you used like "Hard" or "Strengthen" then no
04:20:41 Devastator: so might want to chain them, then.
04:20:47 Devastator: strengthen and then expand.
04:21:15 ER: If I make steel armor that was just so thick that it's d10 protection, then lightened the metal to d8 End requirement, I'd still get penalties due to girth, right?
04:24:25 ER: I probably want to get plate armor either from the breakers or selling my shit, have you Strengthen, then optionally Lighten it myself so that I don't sink into mud and shit.
04:24:57 Devastator: I'm not unwilling to do so for pay. I would like to get some more mana together.
04:25:01 ER: I'm actually buff enough to wear full plate already, so it's a small benefit, but still a benefit
04:25:05 Devastator: would you like a demonstration before?
04:25:15 Devastator: Plus you could get another set and sell that one for a king's ransom.
04:25:20 Devastator: worried about fucking.
04:25:41 Devastator: messing about with buffs.
04:26:09 Devastator: I was almost certainly going to change my armour to steel cloth before going in, and likely using at least one other self-buff.
04:26:20 Devastator: if you'd like a demo before trusting someone else, I could do that now.
04:27:17 ER: last time you said demo you talked about me paying for it and I ain't giving you my mana >:|
04:27:17 Devastator: that'd be for something spefic.
04:27:17 Devastator: but I'll do something I was going to do already for free.
04:29:26 PW: You might take penalties due to girth
04:29:26 ER: well, that's less about not trusting you to be able to do it and more not trusting you not to mess with me maliciously.
04:29:34 Devastator: which is either steel cloth armour or a stat buff, either speed to d10 or a grow to strength d8, if that doesn't reduce my speed.
04:30:51 Devastator: Yeah, you had some bad experiences.
04:31:59 ER:
ER archetype either doesn't give a shit about anything and things she's invincible, or is paranoid and trusts nobody, or both.
04:33:18 Devastator: You know, sensory buffs would probably be more valuable than either str or speed.
04:33:27 Devastator: so likely steel cloth armour and a sensory buff instead.
04:34:01 Devastator: Besides, I think as a channeler you can just end hostile magic effects on yourself, via your spell absorbtion power.
04:34:30 Devastator: Might need a roll to do it, but I don't think I could screw you over if I wanted to.
04:34:37 ER: anyone have Transparent or something? Restricted vision is the other drawback of heavy armor...
04:34:50 Devastator: Not to my knowledge.
04:34:53 Devastator: Oz has Force, though.
04:37:18 Devastator: Plus this is the magebreaker building. I think if I murdered someone right here with magic I'd get blown away.
04:37:58 ER: they might get peeved if you use magic on someone regardless.
04:39:58 Devastator: maybe even on self.
04:40:02 Devastator: no buffing in the building.
04:40:40 Devastator: eh, if you come with, when we get back to the town you should be able to find enough people to convince you that Saeko is on the up-and-up.
04:41:05 Devastator: Only guys I'm cheesed enough with to screw over are
RC and pan, and I'll only do that if they come back wanting more after ripping me off earlier.
04:42:33 Devastator: ..A self grow is tempting if only because you called her tiny. ;-p
04:43:51 Devastator: reeaally don't want to get into that.
04:44:35 Devastator: a mage that makes you a little buff is valuable but a mage that makes you young again is someone who never gets a moment of peace.
04:45:23 Devastator: ..you know, being called tiny is reason enough to do it now. I'll go edit my action.
04:45:42 ER: I didn't call you tiny out loud...
04:45:48 Devastator: oh, I thought you did.
04:45:53 ER: and you're stillin magebreakers HQ...
04:46:10 Devastator: Nah, if it isn't out loud then no, then.
04:48:33 PW: *Walks into magic police headquarters*
04:48:36 Devastator: I think the occult daggar should be made of fake bone.
04:48:48 PW: GREETINGS, WHO HERE WANTS TO ABUSE SOME FUCKING MAGIC
04:49:10 Devastator: I'm not sure using a grow word to grow is an abuse.
04:51:20 Devastator: eh. I'll save the grow for when Z inevitably calls her tiny.
04:51:20 Devastator: I'm sure it'll happen.
04:51:20 Devastator: or when we're going in.
04:52:09 Devastator: Puppynade looks cool.
04:56:42 Devastator: Lots of useful stuff, but if I'm not rich enough to go home, probably only going to buy a bayonet, a fire axe, and an injection gun.
04:59:28 Devastator: Mmm, that's another question.
04:59:39 Devastator:
PW, what are the die ratings of catbird's natural weapons?
05:00:09 PW: Probably d6 on the ground but d8 if you get a swoop
05:00:40 Devastator: Should buff that, then.
05:01:04 ER: are there any weapons where making them lighter is super handy?
05:01:11 Devastator: There might be some tough guys, and less risk of rolling 1s is good.
05:01:30 Devastator: Most weapons are as heavy as they should be.
05:01:48 Devastator: temp lightweight cannon would be fun.
05:01:50 ER: just tote around a bloodborne cannon?
05:01:57 Devastator: Permanent maybe I could mount one on my catbird.
05:02:58 Devastator: well, you need mass to absorb the recoil, but it'd be a fun thing to have.
05:04:28 ER: wouldn't mind wrecking a fool with a bone-ashed cannon
05:05:27 PW: the darkness has come for me
05:05:48 ER: though yeah, with a lightened cannon you'd probably break you arm with the recoil :P
05:06:13 ER: go have nice sick fantasy dreams,
PW

05:14:39 Devastator: oh well, no reason you can't make another stabmeister.
05:33:22 Devastator: Doing the steel cloth armour anyway.
05:33:31 Devastator: I was going to do that with absolute certainty, so why wait?
