This thread begins with Tracy and Trump stuck in a curious sort of trap, their only hope of escape being Infernius who is operating a control panel with around 40 buttons, only one of which will set them free and most of which result in some form of torture or death. The buttons bear the same obscure script as elsewhere which Infernius couldn't read even if it was comprehensible.
Welcome back to the Nuts RP thread, where we're about to go Saw on 2 of the party members!

Also, the Hardening spell has a permanent duration, so we can make tools even harder than the material the temple is made out of.

A "normal" shatterspike is a +1, +4 on sunder weapon/tool. This is a +4, +7 on sunder. Its uber cuz it helps fill out Thez' backstory and give personality and precedence with characters the party probably won't interact with.

Is there any difference in training elite PC classes and Non-elite NPC classes? I read that their ability points are quantified differently , but IDK.
Fighters are in every way superior to Warriors, but it seems as though NPC followers are usually not given that class for some reason.

Between levels 20 and 26 there's a gap where I am not sure what class to advance Trumpaladin in. Because Divine Emissary allows advancement in spell casting as you take each new level it makes sense to give him a spell casting class, but it also makes more smiting sexy as well. What do you think?

Divine Emissary is only for literal demigods under vanilla rules, as far as I can tell...
Might check out the SRDs I read and see what I can suggest about advancement for an epic-level paladin after 20th level (I read it because most story themes that apply to paladins generally also apply to blackguards). There are always different ways to approach it and content to consider.
Of course, first they'd have to GET to epic-level first though, and that could take a while at this rate..

Not much, really. Rogues use their charisma quite a bit with their skills (diplomacy, Use magick device, disguise, bluff, Gather Information, Intimidate). Blackguards get Sneak Attack too, and I've been using her BG spells to produce her Darkness Kunai.
It also opens up the potential for all sorts of ebil story thematics.

>Wants charisma for skill checks
Trumpaladin has a Circlet of Persuasion that provides a +3 to charisma based checks, in the chance you ever want to trade

Trumpaladin's highest score is his charisma, which was 16 when the game started, then I raised it to 18 with the allotted ability points. The armor adds +3 to make 21, and I'll probably need to add his gained ability points to charisma as well to ensure he's at where he needs to be for level 21. My entire epic level advancement plan for him depends on him getting to 25 Charisma.

Strength is... in question. It started at 13, and then I raised it to 14 with ability score increases. The ion stone adds +2, so it's at least 16. I thought it was 20, and was upset when that was in question. But I didn't really know how magical bonuses worked on swords, so now I don't care as much. Trumpaladin is basically a glorified Fighter, and virtually all of his damage is done by means of melee combat, so strength really should be the most important ability.

Trumpaladin was extremely fortunate to start off with 14 wisdom, which coincidentally is the ability score he needs to cast every level of spell he has. I got the Periphat, which Gm seemed fine to rate as +4, I think originally as a gift for Tracy. But it really helps him because the Paladin spell set is pitiful (it's a glorified fighter class) so the added spells from the extra wisdom really helps. I also like the benefits to will saving throws and to skills like sense motive.

For some reason he has a curiously high Intelligence score, at 13, which it also frustrating because it's an odd number. I've thought about giving his extra ability point to intelligence so he could get the extra skill point per level gained, but it's probably better in charisma or strength.

Con is 12, and dexterity is 11. I hate the odd number on dexterity, but now that he has a set of half-plate armor (which allows an AC bonus from dexterity of 0) that has enchantments too high to not use, I don't think that ability will be evened out. I like to make fun of how non-dexterous he is, like the sleight of hand checks earlier with a -8 (armor penalty) modifier to it

Aww.. Tracy's stat total rolled-up 3 points lower.
Tracy has 16 strength, although she never really uses it now because Weapon finesse. Her Constitution is 11 (really hoping to get that Gaunt deformity), as well as her Charisma. Her Wis is an abysmal 9, which kind of sucks, because it means she takes penalty on perception checks. Her Dex is 19: I allocated every point into that before I knew what the stats even did; I don't really regret it at all though. Her int, as I recall, is 13.

I definitely remember her strength as 13
Remember that when a character attains level 16, they gain an ability point, so she has another you can distribute. You could probably also get GM to let you move the 19th Dexterity point to somewhere else

We've been building up our characters in different ways, I've noticed. you mostly want to create the perfect Assassin, able to get in and kill a single target, get out, but above all else, make damn sure that target is dead. I've been operating on the theory that Combat is a numbers game, dependent on five statistics more so than any other - Combined attack bonus, Armor Class, Damage, Hit Points, and the Fortitude saving roll bonus - so most of my advancement of him has focused on those five stats, or on the only set of skills he has any aptitude at (and that I want to roll play), persuasiveness. He's almost immobile when not riding because of how damned heavy the armor is. But I want to roleplay as heavy calvary anyways and Paladin's have awesome mounts

The circlet adds more to skill checks than the charm does, and the cloak of resistance adds more to saving throws than the cloak of charisma does. The headband only helps with arcane spells, which she only has a single level in anyways

I really, really, really, really need that +2 charisma before level 21. I'm hoping for a tome, but if not, will trade

Tbh, I kind of considered going for Duelist after reaching lvl 5 Blackguard. Sure, she'd miss out on stealth, but I really want that Acrobatic Charge: she can make spirited charges and ride-by attacks with her shoes, so she'd be incredible if she could charge in any circumstance. Will probably take a lvl in Assassin first though, so she can cast Invisibility. I put ranks into perform really early on, so that Shadow Dancer and Duelist would always be on the table.
Of course, that's thinking really far ahead in the future...

*Tracy, looking somewhat crestfallen, takes advantage of this spare time to finally finish her Mobility training, although she appears somewhat clumsy as she waddles off to the holodeck by herself*

It takes a lot longer than that to get an entire feat. It's supposed to take three levels of progression

GM said a week, and I've been trying to do it for a long time now.

So you get a feat every 3 levels?

Yeah, a week devoted to it, where the character isn't spending 10 hours a day doing other things. It hasn't been much time at all in game

Yes, plus one at the first level. Humans have an additional feat at the first level as a racial quality

Level 21, Epic Leadership. Level 24 or 23, Great Smite (doubles Smite damage, which would be 40 per smite if he multi-classes and higher if he doesn't) and is a prerequisite for Divine Emissary. If he can get a bonus feat, then probably Epic Weapon Focus or Epic Toughness. Level 27 is where the true fun begins - Legendary Commandership, although I have to limit his multiclassing options to casses with diplomacy as a class skill for that to work out
