Well, the party has gotten some things in order and has made some arrangements and plans to attack Court City in full and not as a half-assed rescue mission because of a brain worm. Speaking of brain worms, the party just kinda shrugged their shoulders and forgot about that whole "Infernius going insane and running off" bit. Hmmm. Oh well. But anyway, everyone's got some ideas and plans to put in motion. Its too bad that Port Barry is currently surrounded one 4 fronts,... that's going to complicate things.
Welcome back to the Game thread, there's over 3 dozen of 'em by now, so pardon me if I skip the introductory formalities. If you want to join, or perhaps just join in on the shitposting cuz bored, feel free. I'm working on a metric to allow new players to get in without having to go through the process of full-on mapping out a character.

GM, how long would it take, and what would it take, to provide medium fortification (equivalent of a +3AC enchantment or 9000 GP) to an armor piece?

As to this point, that's because Thez is a personality first and a set of abilities, skills, feats, and haxx, second. I'm not being critical by that, and I'm not saying she doesn't use her abilities (of course she does), but she uses her abilities when conversation/dialogue, interaction, etc. won't work and she must be sure of the outcome.
Though, she did spend several centuries not getting her way. That did make her more amicable.
>>38975
Just a base magical enchantment? The fastest way would be Magical Vestment followed by Permanency; 3 rounds.

Idk though. There could be some way. Her natural armor is already pretty good though.

I'll elaborate in a second
>>38982
No, it has to be cast on 'something'.
The rules list 'several' spells that can be made permanent, and having gone through them all, I found that the spells that are able to be made so are generally all abjurations. It seems silly that one can make Magic Fang permanent and not Magic Vestment, so I'll allow it. In fact, if it makes a certain degree of sense, I'll throw the book out (hence why Thez can still airwalk Xp)

She's got great AC. But fortification is an enchantment that greatly reduces or even eliminates the chance of a critical hit or a sneak attack dealing the extra damage associated with those kinds of attacks. I would get it for Trumpaladin if he had an open armor slot

Well, the smite its self is a damage bonus on specifically aligned creatures, but if the creature's damage reduction exceeds the damage dealt - even with the extra damage - then no.

Vanderiem's bonus relative to evil aligned creatures (or at least infernals) is +7. Is Vanderiem "epic" relative to evil creatures for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction?

I know he at least counts as a magick weapon and an good-aligned weapon.
Reminder that Paladins can apply those affects to any weapon the wield with the Magick Weapon and Bless Weapon spell. They're meant to overcome damage reduction of monsters, when you don't already have a magick/good weapon at your disposal.

But the problem is that spells like Holy Sword don't stack on top of the sword's enchantment bonus. So I gain very little from these spells (the 2d6 damage might be worth it, but I only have 1 4th level spell and Death Ward is pretty awesome)
>Bless weapon spell
If there's no way or it isn't worth enchanting Fae's teeth magic fang and permanency (xp cost is yuge) I can just use those spells on her. Good idea

I'm just reminding you, in case you ever managed to drop him again. Paladins' weapon-enhancement spells are mostly for bypassing Damage Reduction of fiends and other monsters.

Reminder that if all these others are getting more animal companions, I need a young adult (or adult) female Silver Dragon as a cohort

>animal companions
Only Rangers and Druids get those.
You can train as many animals as you have time for though. I'd suggest putting more ranks into Handle Animal in the future then.

That's kind of what I'm finding, leading me to conclude that someone didn't think things through. I mean, per that definition yes Vandereim is epic v. ebil, and likewise Sugoito is epic at breaking shit. Having said, there are other entries, specifically pertaining to magic weapons that expressly state that a weapon can't have an enhancement bonus of more than +5, nor can it have a combined enhancement and ability bonus (there's a table) beyond +10. The listings (here for example - https://dnd-wiki.org/wiki/SRD:Magic_Weapons#Epic_Weapons ) suggest that somewhere along the way someone(s) at D&D HQ said "Nah fuck that, lets make 'em bigger anyway!" which goes a long way to explaining why ppl have said 3.5 is broken.

I mean by this listing, a +30 sword is possible, which is just ass-fucking-retarded desu

I was thinking of forging a Shatterspike for Tracy as well. Blackguards have all of the spells and feats to craft them, and disarming your enemy by smashing their favorite weapon is such a BBEG tier move.

Indeed. It was precisely for that reason that Thez intentionally fugged up Sugoito's creation. It was going to be the most ebin (not counting shit like the list above) Vorpal Sword evar. There's a story behind it, but yeah breaking the opponent's shit is a quick way to make them impotent for all intents and purposes.

Bless Weapon and Corrupt Weapon make the affected weapon good/ebil. Corrupt weapon says:
>The weapon also becomes evil, which means it can bypass the damage reduction of certain creatures. (This effect overrides and suppresses any other alignment the weapon might have.)
If Tracy pics up a Good aligned weapon that doesn't like her, could she just make it her bitch for a few minutes with that spell? The spell says no saving throw.
I was going to experiment by torturing Vaderiem for a couple seconds, but I didn't want to get b&.

Vanderiem is an Ancient Artifact that is intelligent and Scottish. And the Scotts don't take kindly to those who think they can just make them their "bitch" so easily. The only reason Vanderiem even lets Trumpaladin use him (most of the time) is because there are no other Paladins. Tracy would get her ass beat

"Crap, she's onto me"
>And lo, Tracy did discover the main secret to how Thez has survived so long. She learned that trick 1v1 against a Nightwalker.
THe overcoming damage reduction bit relates to how all damage reduction is X/(w/e); x being the reduction, and w/e being the thing that overcomes it. Most infernals have something like 10/good.
I see your point on saving throws, and in that case I would give the weapon a saving throw since its diametrically opposed to Tracy to begin with.
