Ted, For spell magic cast in groups the draft for World Gen gave a bonus for the first, half that for the second, and half again for the third through fifth. ...
Ted, Yeah setting a max bonus has the same result as limiting participants. I figure that with magic rituals, as in most things, there are going to be...
I've been meaning to get in on this discussion, but IRL has been keeping me busy. I have a couple of quick points to add to the discussion, and hopefully I'm...
... I'm becoming more comfortable with the notion of having a minimum rank requirement for doing Group Magic. I'm not following you though on where R6...
... Rank 6 is the point at which an adept has "mastered" the spell and it no longer counts against their MA limit (see [34.6]). Even in my long-running...
... practically ... Different campaigns proceeded differently, I'm sure. I know other groups where there were characters with multiple spells ranked in the ...
I know my old campaign most likely falls into the unique category, but towards the end of it, I had 2 mages that were close to 22 spells at rank 22. In my...
In my campaign Rk 20 was the highest level that could be achieved. After some experimentation (and abuse by a munchkin) I've limited a second college to...
I had one player play a shaper, and it threw my campaign so out of whack I had to restart it with new characters and ban the shaper as a PC class. Again, this...
Actually, I've always felt the Shaper was a little unbalanced at virtually every level beyond the very start. Also, I can see how GMing a Shaper with anyone...
I'm jumping in late, so I might be repeating an idea that has already been thrown out there. What if Group Magic was possible as a Talent. i.e. Share Mana?...
... So what would this actually do in the context of Group Magic? Would this be a check to see if the particular mage could contribute, ie add his bonus, to...
Given the time requirements to create even the most trivial items, not to mention the endurance loss and skills loss, I can't see how any Shaper would ever...
I don't recall our shaper ever making anything really powerful. What he did do though was make 8 zillion piddily things that pretty much gave him a solution...
Given enough campaign time I can see how a dedicated group could come up with a pretty broad arsenal of magic items. What with people moving and the like I...
Our world has been running sense 1981, and it is true that given time a Shaper can (given time) unbalance a world. However, there are a few things that can be...
This is an example of how I cost out items: Base cost of item = 10 sp (a gold nugget. I determine the base cost depending on what the PC wants, but never go...
All good advice Dennis. ... Did you really have Shapers do those kinds of investments? How in the heck do they recover from all the loss? 7 pts of endurance -...
So how do y'all handle Wyvern poison. The rules say, "Base Chance of 45%, quick-acting poison instead of Damage, no Rank." It also says, "The wyvern's tail...
Is he on the list? There is a rather nice DQ character sheet in PDF form with a Dialog Publishing copyright on it but it has a few things on it I would like to...
Yes and yes. My thought was that the ability to lend a bonus would be more of an inherent ability(i.e. talent) rather than a spell. Therefore, the mage...
... pts ... Yes, so far one of the items was made (as a Money belt with +7 Endurance and Warded by MA). Full recovery of Endurance took 8 sessions, and the...
... No, but they do pop up on eBay frequently. If you keep a watch there, when you get one, you can scan it and provide it as a service to the DQ community....
That's an interesting way to do it though the last paragraph of the shaping example would seem to preclude it. "Note that, at the end of the two-year period, ...
My groups have done the 'quick acting poison' as a death poison that takes affect at the end of the next pulse...die if you fail your endurance roll. Mark ... ...
Ouch! :) Wouldn't work in our group. Having entire adventures aborted because players are frantically trying to get to the nearest R8 Healer before it's too...
