The Chosen Minifigure Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 My next first quest could have an opening for it, if you like I'll PM you to give you the details on if it's an appropriate "religious order". Quote
Myrddyn Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 How about a gender-locked Basic class for Sister of Danab? Presumably with five possible Advanced classes chosen from existing classes, and since it's a Basic class, the only requirement would be gender, so it wouldn't be incredibly unlikely for a character to use, but it's a class that will probably only be used until level 15 anyway, so people who made a male character years ago won't go "Curses, I should have made a female character way back then!", because they wouldn't still be a Sister of Danab anyway. Myrddyn says proudly, as if unaware that by possibly solving these two problems he has likely created many more. Also the only male-specific class I can think of, considering Monk is already available to both genders, is Eunuch, so maybe it's best we don't have gender-specific classes. Quote

Then just play a Cleric who worships Danab. Problem solved. Quote
Khorne Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 Looks great - consider it approved! I personally don't have any quests in the plans that could offer it as a reward, but perhaps you do. Yes, awesome! I love the idea of that class. I look forward to playing as a Vindicator, it totally fits Eric . Hopefully there will be a quest offering this class soon . Can't wait to play as one .

Asphalt Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 excellent, now I just need to find a quest and be chosen for said quest. Good thing i have plenty of time. Quote
Cutcobra Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 Awesome! I'd make a Vindicaror of Oleg with an "Oath to Flame" or something like that as a reward for a quest I'm planning (which I'll get to when I have the time and bricks). Quote
Waterbrick Down Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 Looks great - consider it approved! I personally don't have any quests in the plans that could offer it as a reward, but perhaps you do. Btw, there's a few typos at least in the "Battle Style" sentence, besides it being in all italics: "protet" and punishmen". Sounds good, I'll fix those items and then put a final version up later this evening. Glad to see there's plenty of interest in the class, I'm now looking at putting together a quest that'll feature the class as a reward, but folks can feel free to send me a PM if you have an idea to offer it in another quest. I'm really interested in seeing some of the exploration of the current pantheon's followers. Quote
CMP Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 (edited) It'd be a really suitable reward for a Baltarok quest in the future. I don't have any particular quest planned but I'm not letting all that backstory go to waste. I suggest, because of its nature, putting its requirement up as a vague-sounding item - a 'Vindicator's Seal' or something. Edited January 12, 2015 by CallMePie Quote

I kind of like that idea. And definitely, Vindicators of Tarok would be awesome. Edited January 12, 2015 by Waterbrick Down Quote
UsernameMDM Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 Sign Hoke up for that quest Skrall! A Zoot's Plaything in the hands of a Vindicator. Sweet irony! Quote
Waterbrick Down Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 I still haven't figured out what's so appealing about the class and I never thought of Hoke as very religious. Quote
UsernameMDM Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 I still haven't figured out what's so appealing about the class and I never thought of Hoke as very religious. Hoke is down for the damage! He is a protector of sorts, in his mind at least. What better way to protect your friends than to destroy your enemies? Quote
Zepher Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 I have a quest coming up that might allow for it too. And for me it's the only class I can advance into that makes sense for Boomingham and uses Great Swords. Quote
Asphalt Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 I thought sandy said you could beef up critical hit since it wasn't anything special, just a critical hit. Quote
Zepher Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 I do actually have one question. Shields can be dropped or picked up (or even switched, I believe) without using up a round. Would a Vindicator be able to do that? I feel that while that'd be awesome (as someone hoping to use it...) it might not go over so well as that is so much a "choice" between defense and offense, as switching between the two easily and quickly. Thoughts? Quote
Lind Whisperer Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 I'm seriously thinking Vindicator might be the way to go instead of Dragoon... Dragons are awesome(and I had the perfect one planned, too), but Zweihänder Grip...Wow. 2[Zweihänder Grip](50)(4)+30[Minimum Level] = 430 damage, as compared to 280... Quote
Asphalt Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 I can't imagine why not. Why would a class be restricted from a basic rule? Quote

I feel that while that'd be awesome (as someone hoping to use it...) it might not go over so well as that is so much a "choice" between defense and offense, as switching between the two easily and quickly. Thoughts? I definitely designed the class with the thought that one had to spend a turn to discard or equip a shield, I wanted to make the decision between offense deliberate and not to be taken lightly. I may want to make an adjustment to Zweihander then. Also are most people thinking of going offense set with the Vindicator? The idea was to make the two sides equally appealing but if the offensive set is clearly outweighing the defensive set, perhaps a 1.5 multiplier would be better. Thoughts? Quote
Sandy Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 I thought sandy said you could beef up critical hit since it wasn't anything special, just a critical hit. I never said that. The discussion was about the earlier version of the "2" roll, SUBDUED HIT. I do actually have one question. Shields can be dropped or picked up (or even switched, I believe) without using up a round. Would a Vindicator be able to do that? I feel that while that'd be awesome (as someone hoping to use it...) it might not go over so well as that is so much a "choice" between defense and offense, as switching between the two easily and quickly. Thoughts? Shields can be switched without taking a turn, but you cannot attack without a shield and immediately equip a shield back on the same turn. You either have the shield on for the round or you don't. It's the same way nobody can attack with one weapon and immediately equip another weapon within the same turn. Quote

The idea was to make the two sides equally appealing but if the offensive set is clearly outweighing the defensive set, perhaps a 1.5 multiplier would be better. Thoughts? It kind of depends on the situation and enemies you're facing, I guess? If Eric was a Vindicator, I'd use the offensive stance as a default for him, since he's quite offensive-orientated, but if the situation or needs of the party would require it, I'd change him to defensive without hesitation. Quote
Asphalt Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 If I attain it, I would be going the defensive protector route with it. Quote
Sandy Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 Final version. Now that I read it more carefully, I spotted several other typoes: Weapons: "sythes" SHIELD: "deith", "urrent" SHIELD BASH/DREAD VISAGE: "th", "taget", "oaht" VINDICATOR OATHS: "itme" Quote
Waterbrick Down Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Hmmm... For some reason my spell check isn't working. Let me know if anyone else notices any more typos. Quote
JimBee Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 It kind of depends on the situation and enemies you're facing, I guess? If Eric was a Vindicator, I'd use the offensive stance as a default for him, since he's quite offensive-orientated, but if the situation or needs of the party would require it, I'd change him to defensive without hesitation. This is exactly how I would use it. I think it's fine if a Vindicator can switch between using a shield and Zwielhandler at will. Quote
