TOPIC: Golden Ticket E3 - Infernal Redoubt 7:36pm - Planning Thread

More than a fair point about letting us field test it for everyone on how well nightmare is balanced.

I'm 90% certain the "boss who shall not be named" will make an appearance based on the monster bits for 2019 (it's one of the monster bits).

I very much hope that he's made to be neigh-unkillable. It's been, what, 6 years on this current adventure arc? Walking in and just seeing him drop round 1 would be disappointing. I'd rather it be where we could expect half the party to die if we beat him at all.

It does make sense that some of these will be made harder - Nightmare may make more sense.

You can call him Jeff, he doesn't mind.

Lol!

Please update Wade +1 to Ralykam, and please change class to Wizard (per ok of Fred K in PM)
Please update Fred K to tbd.

Also, please update Wade to any class (or none really, but will represent any)

The consensus so far is NIGHTMARE with the possibility of using Charms of Transmorph if everyone is game. If you have CoT available, let me know what numbers you have and I will add them to your name.

1. Fred Kessler - TBD - CoAS, CoA
2. Orion Wiseman - Druid - CoAS, CoA
3. Fred Kessler - TBD (charity) - TBD - CoAS, CoA
4. SnakeEyes (Eric) - Fighter - CoAS, CoA (#6 or #10 CoT)
5. Starkhound (Edwin) - Cleric - CoAS, CoA
6. Josh Wilhelmi - Elf Wizard - CoAS, CoA (Loaned from Wade if needed)
7. Wade - ANY - CoAS, CoA
8. PalaDan - Paladin - CoAS, CoA
9. Jackoftradze - Rogue - CoAS, CoA
10. Ralykam - Wizard - CoAS, CoA

Bill Krenson will be filling slot #3 and would like to be a Dwarf Fighter. He'll have CoAS and COA.

That leaves Bard, Barbarian, Monk, and Ranger for Wade and I. Wade, I'm pretty neutral - what's your preference?

Fred

Edit: you choose first please

Hey Fred, so apparently I neglected to update our thread when Luigi traded spots with another player in Laz's GT thread a few weeks ago. Luigi prefers Dwarf Fighter. Any chance Bill can play Barbarian?

21 days, gang! Can't wait to slay with you all!

I'll try to reach Bill but contact has been limited so far. I don't see Luigi in the list right now. What is he listed for at the moment?

Honestly, I'd play any of the 4 remaining classes.

Given that we're playing NM, I would very much like to revisit the idea of charms of transmorph if people could be talked into it. Based on this list of esteemed colleagues, I feel that the only real challenge we will face on NM will be the puzzles. If it were necessary to convince the melee types to give up their Deaco-Lich Claw or Greater Onyx charm for the charm of transmorph, I would be willing to play bard troubador and use enhanced bardsong 3 times.

I'm game, Wade. I can contribute a 6th or a 10th CoT.

I missed this part on the CoT - I set aside a complete set of 1-10 for this run so the group is set there. Hopefully, everyone is willing to drop a charm in order to do the set (I believe all 10 have to be turned in). I can loan out charm bracelets or charming necklace if needed.

Cool. He's a member of the BB so he swapped places with Josh Wilhelmi so he could join our run. He told me this a while ago and I completely spaced on updating our thread. He's listed in he 6th spot of Laz's main GT thread.

BTW, congratulations on raising $3,900 for the American Stroke Association with your auction!

Thank you. That's very generous of you, Fred. This run is shaping-up to be one for the storybooks!
