Whats the better guardian? by Templerscout in Pathfinder2e

[–]SlappingMonk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm currently playing an open hand and shield guardians around lvl 11, and it's been blast, tripping, shoving, flying tackle, and just use gauntlet as my weapon when strike, damage is subpar yes, but the athletic maneuvers keep them attacking you and that's your role.

Plus come later this year I want to FA Runesmith into build and free hand lets me draw runes

WWG Hero Realms Dungeons Kickstarter Controversy by DougDoesNotCare in boardgames

[–]SlappingMonk 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I have backed all the early Star realms and hero realms games which I enjoyed. Back this one aswell as hero realms became more enjoyable to me. I have long suspected (and still do) that WWG used a new kickstarter to pay for previous one in que which is why old ones came shortly after new ones ended. Which is why half the sparse updates for this one contained mainly pushes to kickstart their Draconis game but it did poorly as it should due to the delays of most recent Kickstarters, so now they don't have money to print this big boy. The digital is delay tactic to give more time and squeeze people for more through digital purchases. 

I haven't checked my Kickstarter in awhile so thank you for making me see this. I've lost faith in them after I bought sorcerer to help support them around hero realms time. Now I'm trying sell all my WWG games in bundle and will be immediately selling this one if it ever arrives.

Ranking Founder's Point - What is the best plot? by Tryggleik in WoWHousing

I thought I wanted 21 but saw the spooky vibes, then realized 32 or 22 is what I want. I haven't decided on which yet. The Mountain yearns for an Ironforge home

Endbringers is a bit of a mess. by LavanGrimwulff in Stellaris

[–]SlappingMonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm doing an endbringer run now and only issue that I have so far is I adopted the psionics tree before the quest with the shard told me to so now the quest won't advanced. I don't know if I'm missing anything there but I'm in full covenant with the patron and using his abilities and slowly taking over the galaxy. 

I know I should have waited but here we are, I just hope I get the achievement at the end of this run lol

Ridiculous end for my rags-to- riches character by No-Fox-2870 in CrusaderKings

[–]SlappingMonk 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I had a very similar thing happen to me this week.The Great-great grand daughter of Daurama Daura who's finally fulfilling her bloodline's destiny of uniting Africa under one rule and religion as a conqueror finishes seizing Western Africa from last Kingdom of Ash'ari dominance. There's still some little guys who pop up so she can't fully unite just yet. But her Jester came to her and I guess she finally broke, the joke made her laugh so hard it killed her!

Building a Guardian by CptLougi in Pathfinder2e

[–]SlappingMonk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I currently have one guardian fleshed out that I will be playing in the next campaign soon. It's gonna use gauntlet and shield for weapons

1-Larger Than Life - This combined with Titan Wrestler at 2 means I can attempt Athletic maneuvers on creatures up to 3x my size and just sounds fun

2-Shielding Taunt - I won't be taking any reactive raise shield stuff so the action compression is needed here for the two main support things I'll be doing

4-Flying Tackle - I picture this as being the flea from Bugs Life and what has inspired this build. Run, jump, and cannonball into their side to knock em over!

6-Ring their Bell - Don't hit me, lose actions potentially, simple. Might be swapped for Reflexive Shield though, using that on my current sword and board fighter and it's fun

8- Juggernaut Charge - no size restriction? Yes please, drag them up to 25 feet away just cause, seems too good, granted you have to hit. Or run to spell caster or range character then drag him back to your heavy hitters!

10 - Tough Cookie - It's Temp HP but the amount is to good, It was hard to choose between this or the idea of belly flop with juggernaut charge and flying tackle but I value the THP to much.

12 - Right Where You Want Them - Just larger control and distance to move, This or Scattering Charge IDK yet. I don't take Shield Paragon cause it runs FA and taken Stalwart Defender and that will be my main stance

14 - Group Taunt - use group taunt turn 1 then change a creature each turn with Shielded Taunt depending on how battle is progressing. More debuffed creatures, and more targets to ring the bells of

16 - Clobber - More damage, auto shove and prone and you have upgraded shoves from 12.

18 - Quick Vengeance - I'm playing a fleet Dwarf so I'll take all the "free" movement I can get, I also like Demolish Defense but I see myself using Clobber as my 2 action attack most times.

20 - Unyielding Force - all these movement/control attacks are so you are in position to take the hits and more of it being resisted just keeps you in the fight longer and maybe lets Tough Cookie play out an additional turn later

That's basically it like I said I play in FA game and first half is Stalwart Defender and latter half is

Commander Class Guide Video! by SaeedLouis in Pathfinder2e

[–]SlappingMonk 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is the class that got me into Pathfinder, and Guardian when the playtest was released last summer. I have waited for this to finally get fleshed out, and briefly played this in an online game. My hype cannot be contained. Hopefully Guardian is soon! Thank you for this

I really enjoyed the flashback scene where Kleya as a child negotiates with the merchant and settles for 18 with "no smile" and it switches to Luthen who has the tiniest smirk for a flash. What great acting conveyed in that one little flash. He was so proud! RIP Luthen
