So Jolt, since we're both scouts, I assume you're more of the detect-y, perseptive scout, and I'm more of the break-y-and-enter-y scout/thief. Am I right in that assumption? Just so we make sure we're not overlapping too much. Also, do we have a medic?

Yeah, I've got the listen/search/spot/survival parts covered.  My character is also carrying a lockpick, but it's filed under "bolt cutters".  I wanted him to be about as subtle as a tank.  :smirk

I hope someone else has Disable Device, because I'll be able to find the traps, but short of shooting them, I don't think I'll be able to disarm 'em.

I have some ranks (only a +5 total mod though...)

hmmm perhaps I should have thought about that being the techie/mechanic, hold on people let me shuffle some skill points around


....on second thoughts I might have to totally redesign my character.... drop the charismatic for  smart methinks :banghead

there we are +6 in total could add +2 more with a feat as I have one left and not sure what to spend it on

That makes two, so we should be quite the pair, and as far as the trap solutions, I see no issue here...  :smirk

See, I'd kind of like that improvised weapons thing..... but I'm worried about losing out on too much BAB with fast, gunslinger, and gentle warrior already. I can't be a fighting charrie and lose too much bab off the bat, though if it goes on as long as Jace can... maybe a little later!  :D

Apparently we're making very similar characters (except I have no interest in Soldier) so I think I'm going to have to rethink my character.

Whoops! Sorry.  :p

I moved some stuff around though. Hey thanks jolt, I can punch someone in the face for 15 damage now  :lmao

Got that deagle too. Going to be gunning for Weapon Focus and Specialization with it. I'm pretty heavily combat orientated I guess. But somehow I came out with enough ranks to max out everything I wanted for Navigator.

need one last feat.... it's a starting feat so almost no restrictions, come on guys what do we need? Thinking of gearhead or maybe something less focused like alertness or anything really I'm open to suggestions  :plot

It's ok, I'll just go back to my fallback plan which is to wait until everybody else is done and see what I can make that won't step on toes.

hummm our builds are very very similar... only my char is more mechanically minded, not that that's a problem, just wondering where you got all those feats from O_o we should have four feats right? two from being human, one bonus from class and one for lv three? coz if so I STILL HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO SPEND MY LAST FEAT ON!!  :banghead

Tarot you could have 4 or 5 (beside simple weapons). depending if your occupation gives an extra one.

I have Human, 1st, Ocupation, class 2, and 3rd
Clerics and Druids are like the 4 and 2 in 42. Together they are the answer to the ultimate question in D&D.

Lmao and I was stoned when I clicked that link and I thank you. I thank you a lot, I laughed until my ribs hurt.

On another note, I fixed all my shit on my character sheet, but it's the same premise.

At this point with a group this big we're bound to have some over lapping. I'm not sure it can be avoided.

"oh a smart double fast as well huh? what skills?" "oh focusing on craft, repair and computer use, and maybe picking up a few drive and pilot skills where needed" "cool cool, I', more to do with sneaking with a huge hide and move silently," "awesome what was your first talent?" "linguist wanna be able to speak shit" "cool cool went for savant myself" etc etc  :thumb

Yeah, I'm a sucker for modern too, d20 in general really. It's what I've been running my own campaigns with ever since I showed it to my players. It's just so easy to use and flexible, you can be anything you want, your not boxed in at all. *cough 4E cough*.

I'm not that concerned about equipment, just making sure everybody has their class/feat/skill progressions pretty much done so I can fill any gaps.
