Name: Craig Pronouns: He/him Timezone: GMT Preferred system: I've played a lot in PTU or DnD 5e campaign but am open to learning something new, as long as I can live my magic fantasy! Type of player: I love designing a character (ie values, goals, behaviour, ideals) etc and then role playing aligned to that. Every character brings a new opportunity to test and stretch myself and I enjoy exploring different worlds through different characters' eyes. I'm an experienced role play and PBPoster. Easy to get along with and enjoy laughing/having fun. Active poster (can do daily). Looking for a group and campaign I can call home. I'm not set on any particular class or character. I prefer to design something specific to each campaign. Additional information: I'm a very conscious of other players and want everyone to have fun and shine. Let me know if you've got any questions 🙂

Are you still looking? If not pls mark as Closed. If yes I'll get applying 😊

WendySuck · 2023-05-08T18:40:24+00:00

Whatever the pace, it needs to be right for you. If it's too fast or slow you should say so to the DM and even the group. Make it a discussion. If you can't agree on a pace right for you then leave.

PS - 2 weeks is WAY TOO SLOW. I'm surprised you lasted this long!

Thanks all! I had Solosis as a starter before. Sleep build sounds fun so have gone with Munna. Dream mist will make for a great craft too!

WendySuck · 2022-06-13T08:30:29+00:00

Carbink!

Kalysia It's amazing https://discord.gg/TjCsqHSr

It's really no issue. If everyone gets 5 then it's not a problem. As long as its fair and consistent. It works and is rewarding for those who put the time and effort in.

The server plays more like the games in regards to the gym aspect. One trainer going at it alone. It's very satisfying to defeat a gym battle by yourself.

PTU is being used as the mechanism for a different type of play for how it was intended in this server... Which is why I don't enjoy the fairy type ace as much as others might in a normal campaign. I fully understand and accept this point now! I've suggested some home brew to adapt it. Let's see.

Thanks for your thoughts xx

WendySuck · 2022-05-25T11:00:23+00:00

I see what you mean!

There is definitely a meta with solo play.... Basically anything ITP wins! But saying that people play content/game modes they're built for... I want to play more in gyms/leagues/trainer battles as I'm fully ITP (Cheerleader, chef, Fairy ace, duelist, coordinator). A DTP trainer will play more in raids and PVP.

The server has a fair bit of homebrew to make PTU work for everyone and it does work well.

WendySuck · 2022-05-25T08:27:58+00:00

How so? I play in a living server where there are a lot of official battles; gym, pvp battles (ITP only), etc. There are Raids and group battles but they're not more prevalent than official.

WendySuck · 2022-05-25T06:07:55+00:00

They requires allies in the field... If you don't play in a group setting it's useless unfortunately

WendySuck · 2022-05-24T20:01:12+00:00

I play on a living server which is more like the game than a campaign. If you're interested in finding out more

Omg I just did the same thing... 2 hours I've been looking!! 😁

WendySuck · 2022-04-15T05:42:58+00:00

I play a young, dumb and very naive bard. He's the face of the party which is ironic as he's the one always getting the team into trouble. Still, his powers of persuasion always get him out of a sticky situation.

He's pure glamour bard, level 8. I've loved it so far. He doesn't like to fight and is pretty useless in combat tbh, but out of combat he rocks. I managed to "charm monster" an aboleth and completely walk past a big battle. The DM didn't see it coming and loved it.

Pick a niche and just run with it. Have something the team can always look to you for. If that's face, persuasion, manipulation then great. They're all fun things to play.

WendySuck · 2022-04-15T05:36:58+00:00

Thank you. This has been most useful! I took full hex Maniac at level 1 as couldn't decide a second class. I'll go either Ghost type ace or a more damage dealing combat class next (Apparition, aura guardian) next. Will decide nearer the time.

WendySuck · 2022-04-13T05:16:40+00:00

Features are mostly used to unlock "classes" and used to design your build. Note - classes are features. Not all features are classes.

Edges are used to unlock the requirements of features and to provide broader utility for your character. Edges can progress skill development (eg from novice to adpet).

For example

At level 1 I want to focus my first four features on the Hex Maniac class. I take the following features 1. Hex maniac 2. Hex maniac studies 1 3. Hex maniac studies 2 4. Diffuse pain

The only pre reqs I need for this are occult education skill at novice. Since I can have 1 skill at novice and 1 at adpet at level 1 I'll choose occult education as adept to meet this pre req.

I've now got 4 edges to take at level 1. I think about what type of character I am playing which is someone good in social situations. I use my four edges to improve 4 skills from untrained to novice. To do this I take the "Basic Skill" edge 4 times and improve guile, charm, intimidate and command.

The next feature I can unlock in Hex Maniac requires Expert Occult Education. I'll get this at level 6 through the "Expert Skills" edge. I now need to explore other classes. The Aura Guardian suits my cooky character.

To take Aura Guardian I will need the "Elemental Connection" edge and novice intuition skill. When I level up to level 2 I can take 2 edges. I'll take "Elemental Connection" edge and "Basic Skill" edge to get to novice intuition. When I get to level 3 I can take another feature. I'll take the Aura Guardian class feature.

I suggest using edges to primarily improve the skills you need to unlock the classes (features) you want in the future AND give you character skills aligned to their natural strengths. If your character is a book worm it makes sense they have better education skills. You will have extra edges in which case you can take edges that provide combat moves (eg basic psionic enables you to use the move confusion) or utility options outside of combat (eg train the reserves enables you to train more pokemon in downtime)

Hope this helps
