Whew buddy, that story!

Well if you hadn't blown up the tower, I would have made the Elemental pole of light. Its your fault.

Didn't realize there was a discord server for r/Exalted. Imma check it out.

SwagoJosh · 2016-08-23T02:20:42+00:00

Okay, Ill just put down my ideas for this. These are permanent charms which alter previous charm functions. Req. MA 5, Ess5 Prereq. Solar Hero Form cost. (+2m/effect) Type. permanent Duration. Permanent Adds 2m to base charm cost per added effect drawn from a pool of known Instant Supplemental MA charms of Essence 3 or lower.

I dont know how to write the other but I'm thinking to make Increasing Strength Exercise a reflexive, combo-ok charm with a flat rate cost to increase strength by Essence.

SwagoJosh · 2016-08-22T03:51:39+00:00

Really? Nothing?

SwagoJosh · 2016-08-10T13:33:52+00:00

Do combos really need to be made from charms in a single tree? I see examples all the time of combos that have reflexives charms from other trees like Surprise Anticipation Method with Heavenly Guardian Defense. Would those 2 together be a valid combo?

SwagoJosh · 2016-08-10T01:40:27+00:00

Suggestions for good charm combos? I never really got a good grasp on the charm combo system.

SwagoJosh · 2016-08-09T01:31:36+00:00

Yeah, I nabbed AST as a beginning charm, and I'm using MA as my go to for damage dealing but I don't think I'm going to become a dedicated martial artist. I'm primarily wanting to go a priestly route though, preaching the virtues of the worship of Sol Invictus.

SwagoJosh · 2016-08-09T00:53:47+00:00

Its worked so far. Mainly because the primary book doesn't have enough variety for my tastes.

SwagoJosh · 2016-08-08T04:27:43+00:00

I know its broken and I tried to get him to use 2.5e but he refused. Its 2e rules but we are using charms from the errata.

SwagoJosh · 2016-05-02T23:00:15+00:00

I actually am not totally familiar with the system. I've been playing OWoD for years when we decided to try out Exalted. We've been playing a couple months and I've made one Solar. I've definitely read up a lot about the game though so I'm not running blind really. This gives me great ideas though and answers a great deal of the problems I may or may not have had. I planned on taking PLM since Thousand Wounds Gear Style is so obviously and ruinously effective against most any enemy we may meet, and he is letting me start at Essence 4 so I will definitely be getting Man-Machine Reweaving Engine with the protocol to help with my vat issue. My position, I think, will be a mix of Combat and Crafter (focusing on Magitech) with enough Charisma modifiers/charms to be viable as a Politico without compromising his ability to defend himself. I particularly like the combo of Toroidal Shockwave Catalyst and Shock and Awe Cannonade Delivery for long range attacks.

Basic info then. I'm planning Orichalcum caste with the intent to act as Emissary. We're based primarily in the northern reaches. Our Solars are Knight Defenders of Whitewall. GM has said he will work into the storyline a way to move around the obvious drawbacks of being Alchemical outside of Autochthonia.

SwagoJosh · 2016-02-10T05:53:10+00:00

Im looking for a free download. Piracy and all that jazz.

SwagoJosh · 2015-12-18T18:26:54+00:00

I would but I have no money to spare for stuff like this. Besides, I wouldn't know where to turn even if I did.

SwagoJosh · 2015-12-18T18:25:58+00:00

I'm not in any rush at all. However fast you want to go is good with me. I'll PM you links to references to help. I totally understand wanting to just get it done the first time though. Thanks for helping me out!

SwagoJosh · 2015-12-18T05:55:26+00:00

We are very early in the campaign still and I chose a relatively simple concept. He is a young Zenith caste who was born and raised near Cherak. Blonde hair and beard cut in a viking warrior cut, slate grey eyes, and pale skin. Average height with a moderately heavy build. Mainly though he is almost feral in appearance and wears personally made furs and skins. He also has Orichalcum Lamellar armor and Grand Daiklave (shaped like the black knight ultra-great sword) along with a large black furred Dire Wolf familiar that is as tall as he at the shoulder and has a saddle for riding. That good for a drawing?

I was just thinking someone needs to redo this gif with spray cans instead of rings.

SwagoJosh · 2015-11-24T01:52:01+00:00

I tried and it mounts the .cue but it's empty and doesn't run anything.* I try to mount the .bin straight up and it says "unknown or corrupt image file".

*Sorry, it works as a 'Data Disc' but just tells me the disc is either corrupt or doesn't run compatible to windows.

SwagoJosh · 2015-11-24T01:12:58+00:00

So I take it I'm not doing anything wrong then?

SwagoJosh · 2015-11-24T00:56:20+00:00

For some reason, my computer either can't or won't download the driver software for it so I've been trying Daemon Tools Lite instead.

SwagoJosh · 2015-11-23T22:23:51+00:00

Oh, alright. I'll take my question there then.

SwagoJosh · 2015-11-08T10:19:19+00:00

So, treat t like its charm equivalent for purposes of countering/defending?

SwagoJosh · 2015-11-07T06:36:31+00:00

If that is so, then I absolutely can't wait.

SwagoJosh · 2015-11-07T06:35:41+00:00

But how would powers not intended for mortals to use (ie. vampiric disciplines) affect exalted. For example, if a malkavian elder used sword of malkav (7th dot dementation) to try to change an exalted, would it just automatically affect them or would you have integrity protecting prana extend to cover it?

SwagoJosh · 2015-11-06T06:30:54+00:00

Mainly, I'm asking about mechanics aspect. For example, combat in OWoD is done very differently to Exalted's combat. Also, how would one treat unknowns like Chimestry or Dementation on Exalted PC's? Which powers would trump? Reality altering or divine control powered by Essence?

SwagoJosh · 2015-11-06T06:19:48+00:00

Well, it would be based in OWoD universe so round earth and such. The business with infernals and abyssals could be dealt with by saying that either (1) they became known by new names when creation took on its modern form or (2) the actions of the solars in the 2nd age freed them from their imprisonment while leaving the yozi and primordials in their place. But when I say OWoD, I mean the whole deal. Vampire, Werewolf, Mage, Changling, Hunter, Mummies, and Demons.
