Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground XLVI
That's why I've signed up to judge this round. I can always console myself with the thought that "I could have entered, but I was due to judge". It softens the blow to my ego a bit. Of course, I've only been competing for the last 3 ICs, so take my advice with many grains of salt.

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground XLVI
Build submitted. Chairman, I had to submit in two parts and then realized a slight word choice difference in Part I, so I resent the revised version of Part I; Part II is unchanged. Sorry for any confusion.

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground XLVI
Spent a few minutes trying to understand what what might have been so bad about your first part that it was worth resenting.

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground XLVI
I'll be very interested to see if anyone managed to make a build that shines because of the SI, instead of in spite of it
The build I came up with very much fell into the latter category...My winning competition entries: Kinvig Arrumskor | The Great Pumpkinhead | Wynfrith d'Acker

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground XLVI
I did my usual ritual when I manage to submit a build early, which is to not look at it until the very last day of the competition, and then to check it thoroughly for errors or obvious things I forgot or should include.
For once I actually didn't manage to find anything to fiddle with.
Is it weird that this disturbs me way more than if I had found something? Usually I find a minor issue, correct it, and it's fine. But with nothing to change, I'm convinced now I'll have missed something REALLY BIG AND OBVIOUS. Mine will somehow end up being the entry that forgot the build table or something...Optimization Showcase in the Playground

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground XLVI
Well I did a revision yesterday and I changed a couple of things, the problem is that I think I left two things out of the changes so I will probably go over it later this afternoon to make sure that everything is coherent, I might end pming a new version to the chairman. Sorry about that Kuulv
Thanks a lot Gengy for the awesome... just a sec... avatar. :)

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground XLVI
@Venger Wow that is a lot of entries. I'd say that is something to be proud of though. And I wouldn't blame you for choosing not to enter this one. I'm not a huge fan of my idea really, but I've put too much work into this crappy idea to back out now. I console myself with the thought that at least it is a unique idea.
That said I do think this will be one of those things were the character is alright in spite of the SI, instead of because of it. Those abilities were just too much to work with.
It's alright Piggy, I almost turned mine in without mentioning the first level ability of the SI, in the chart and in my breakdown. That would have sucked. And I'm sure you'll be doing better than that.

I never got around to making my build, i'll just wait until the builds are done and mention what my plan was in the discussion thread once the real builds have been posted.

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground XLVI
I don't know how folks have ever had time to enter three entries--two was my max, and oftentimes meant at least one night without sleep. Anxious now to see what I'm up against.

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground XLVI
For me, its more how do you have 3 different ideas which utilize this prestige class? I couldn't come up with one idea that was good with this prestige class, instead of better without it.

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground XLVI
Three builds? I am awed by your ability to make three builds with this class. I made one, and I'm still laughing at it.
As for Sanhegrim, I seriously doubt it. It may have a small powers known list and not many class features, but some of those powers are still pretty decent. Also having 9nth level powers locks this out a bit, especially when one of those is Psychic Chirurgery. Fast healing that's going to be active almost all the time is I think too powerful for IC, IIRC there's only one other class (Soldier of Light) that gives you limitless fast healing.
Excited for the reveal.Kolyarut Avatar by Potatocubed.

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground XLVI
From the beginning I had two build ideas floating around in my head and they were both pretty different. I was working on them simultaneously. My wife give me the third idea and it is a semi-serious build so that did not take much time at all.

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground XLVI
I also had 3 ideas... but one almost didn't work and used evil cheesy things that should be left untouched for the lulz, the second one is great but works much better with the SI (although the SI offers some things to it), and the third one is the one that I am going with.
There is an extra one, but it sprang after a friend commented me his idea, and it is similar to his, so I'm keeping that one untouched in case he ends cooking.
On another note, I am really HAPPY that I checked my entry again, there were BIG mistakes on my part. Mostly due to changes and evolution on the build. That means that I am going to submit it for a third time Poor chairman is going to get his inbox filled with entries, and he will be overjoyed and then crushed when he discovers that they are the same.
Edit: Basically Kuulv ignore my entries before the last one.Last edited by thethird; 2013-06-22 at 04:07 PM.

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground XLVI
Well, time for me to admit I need to bow out. I had something nearly completed last week, found some flaws and set it aside for a while until I had the chance to fix, never did, and now its like 90 minutes to the deadline, not gonna happen. I'll post my stub after the reveal, had a neat trick for one aspect of the SI, but I'm not going to lose sleep over not submitting.

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground XLVI
Managed to just sneak in my first IC build with minutes to spare. I unexpectedly happened upon an idea that I really liked. It's a little weak, but I'm proud enough of it to want it seen.
Good luck to all.
