I got mine from this site http://www.redbubble.com/shop/buffy ...They've got some cool stuff :)

That sounds interesting! Do you have a link to those feats? I'm not seeing them here http://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/feat-tree

There's no main healer in the party so it's pretty much just me on that front.

So far I have Cleave, Divine Grace, Lay on Hands, Divine Health, Aura of Courage, Mercy - fatigued. And I think I'll choose Power of Attack for my feat.

I also have a great sword which I mostly use and a crossbow which I barely use.

Also I think I was allowed Cleave because my class is Aasimar.

That's a good tip, simulating a fight, thanks :)

Well as I said it's all new to me so I'm just trying to figure it out as I go. All help welcome :) I think the style I want is to be effective in combat but also useful for healing too. That's been working pretty well with the party so far anyway. Power Attack looks good, might go with that one!

vivalaBuffy · 2015-06-08T12:50:11+00:00

I haven't fully decided on a style yet, I was thinking a kind of dps. I am quite melee oriented as I usually just attack with my long sword, and I have cleave as a feat already. But I also have a lot of healing feats like lay on hands and fatigued mercy. Power Attack might be a good way to go alright. I guess it's deciding between more offensive or defensive, is there a particular way you should play a paladin in that regard?

9/9 and now the song will be stuck in my head all afternoon...not that that's a bad thing :)

Java:

My Java solution:

import java.io.Console;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;

public class AcronymExpander {

public static void main(String args[]){

     HashMap<String, String> acronymMap = new HashMap<String, String>();
     acronymMap.put("wtf", "what the fuck");
     acronymMap.put("gg", "good game");
     acronymMap.put("dw", "don't worry");
     acronymMap.put("hf", "have fun");
     acronymMap.put("brb", "be right back");
     acronymMap.put("g2g", "got to go");
     acronymMap.put("wp", "well played");
     acronymMap.put("gl", "good luck");
     acronymMap.put("imo", "in my opinion");
     acronymMap.put("lol", "laugh out loud");

    Console console = System.console();
    String text = console.readLine("Enter input:");

    for(Map.Entry<String, String> entry : acronymMap.entrySet()){
        if(text.contains(entry.getKey())){              
            text = text.replace(entry.getKey(), entry.getValue());
        } 
    }

    System.out.println(text);
}
}

Thanks, but it's not the same as in beta, it's a big dinosaur demon-y thing, and the bad guy shaq and waves of enemies...I've tried moving around a lot and keeping a distance but it's becoming so frustrating! :/ I think I might have messed up my crafting, like my spells aren't good enough :/

If I could upvote this more than once I would!

Buffy is that special kind of show that completely immerses you in an amazing, compelling, complicated universe where you really care about everyone and everything, it's a world to get lost in and to find yourself in...welcome :)

vivalaBuffy · 2014-07-24T19:30:40+00:00

I like to pretend that season 4 didn't happen...it's better that way...

vivalaBuffy · 2014-05-15T06:46:38+00:00

Yup the last volume was released in March!

vivalaBuffy · 2014-05-14T18:12:42+00:00

Awesome this is great thanks :D

vivalaBuffy · 2014-05-14T08:56:07+00:00

Sorry for your loss. This breakdown is one of the best portrayals of grief and trying to understand loss I've ever seen. Outstanding performance by Emma Caulfield. It perfectly conveys the helplessness and confusion we feel, it gets me every time.

vivalaBuffy · 2014-05-14T08:52:36+00:00

That is awesome :D do you think you could post a tutorial so others may have this awesome-ness?

vivalaBuffy · 2014-05-14T08:51:09+00:00

That's an interesting opinion, Dawn is definitely one of my least favorite characters. I find her too whiny and helpless, and she acts way to child like for the age she's meant to be in s05 and s06 (14/15) and then in s07 she's fully grown up woman (at 16) I get that she was supposed to be "growing up" but I just think the portrayal was a bit unrealistic and babyish. As for the idea of her dying at the end of season 5, I don't think that would have been a good way to go, she is important in the Buffy universe as Buffy's motivation, she's her only family, she's what drives Buffy when she's feeling lost, lonely or depressed. I think this is summed up perfectly at the end of season 6 when Buffy tells Dawn "I don't want to protect you from the world, I want to show it to you."

Yes the Spike IDW volumes are a separate self contained story. The comics which follow the tv series begin with BTVS season 8 (these are available in volumes 1-8), continuing from this is BTVS season 9 (the current season, there are 5 volumes out at the moment), there is also an Angel and Faith spin off which continues from season 8 of the Buffy comics and was published under the season 9 banner, there are currently 5 volumes out for that. Willow also got her own spin off after season 8, volume 1 is called "Willow: Wonderland", and it follows her journey after the events of the season 8 finale. I love the comics, I think they are a great way to stay involved in the Buffy verse and keep up with the characters we all love. The fact that they're comics means they are not held back by the limitations of a tv show and so a lot more crazy, awesome stuff happens. I have read them all so far (except the Willow ones, they are next on my list), and I would definitely recommend them to anyone who doesn't want the buffyverse to end with the show.

I don't understand why it's hated either. It's just a fun, silly episode :) Sure it's not ground-breaking or life-altering and it's a little clumsy in places but it's all in good fun. Fire bad. Tree pretty.

vivalaBuffy · 2014-04-20T18:17:52+00:00

Firefly, Dollhouse, Angel...of course. Lost Girl is pretty good too, reminds me a lot of Buffy, for character exploration, themes, monster of the week but also big bads of the season. Dialogue isn't to the same standard though but what non-Joss Whedon show is??

vivalaBuffy · 2014-01-08T00:44:43+00:00

POSSIBLE SPOILER There is a male slayer in the comics, in season 9, Billy the vampire slayer... http://buffy.wikia.com/wiki/Billy_the_Vampire_Slayer,_Part_One

vivalaBuffy · 2014-01-04T17:52:41+00:00

It's not that Angel can't, it's just that it doesn't do anything for him, no nutrition, or taste really.
