*Inspired by a thread I saw the other day about a troll in GD, I was like "I know, I will do a D&D troll post, OMG it will be easy and funny! 2 hours later.... God I am such frigging geek when it comes to number crunching and power gaming...*

2. Nerd.

:P
I still have my 1rst edition Monster Manual, Player Guide and DM Guides!

3. Me too!

I just came across them, my daughter is fascinated by them. BTW, in my day, anything with an armor class of 26 was seriously up shit creek.

4. Yeah in 3rd edition they basically reversed AC

Going from a 1st or 2nd edition point of view, his AC would be something like -16.

In 3/3.5 You have a base attack bonus that goes up every level and you add your strength bonus and other modifiers, then just roll to hit the AC of the target. That way there is no fubling around with odd charts and what not. I suppose on a certain level it is "dumbed down" but combat moves much, much, much faster in 3rd edition than it ever did in 1st or 2nd.

7. Ah the welcome simplification of the die-rolls.

I like 3.5 a lot. It's very well built and easy to use.

5. that's quite a troll

I wonder what he/it had to do to get a troll-sized mithral shirt?

[everythingsxen]

10. Serve the GOP?

Villains never have to deal with things like shops that will sell to them. :P

[Bassic]

6. Int +10?

What the fuck kind of super-troll is that? :D

[everythingsxen]

11. The kind of super-troll you use...

when your players are min-maxxing power gamers!

[Bassic]

12. Oh I see.

Time to make new characters I think :D

[Orsino]

8. Min-maxed to death...

...with INT, WIS and CHA as dump stats--just like on the Freeper boards. Does your troll also shy away from actual combat?

[everythingsxen]

9. LOL of course!

That's why he has Shadowdancer so he can Hide in plain Sight and do Sneak Attacks. Shadow Jump 20 feet, catch someone flatfooted and he is doing Claw 1d6+6 +3d6 Sneak + Claw 1d6+6 +3d6 + Bite 1d6+3 +3d6. Plus he can summon a shadow ally (sockpuppet/dummy account) when he needs backup!
