OOTS #390 - The Discussion Thread

[The Giant]

New comic is up.

[GM West]

I'm loving this air pirate! Looks like there's big changes in store for Elan. Explains his 'swashbuckler-style' entrance at the scene of the impending crime, though! Man... another cliffhanger weekend!!! Thanks, Giant!

[Winged One]

It's true! Elan did take a level in Badass!

[Zangor]

I can't wait to see some Elan's witty lines; this should be great!

[Hario]

w00t elan finally got a prestige class, though I would like to see what it actually looks like... I might play one later..

[Guildorn Tanaleth]

And so the forum prophesies are fulfilled. This ought to be good.

[merric101]

AWSOME! i love it, though im not so happy that you gave us another cliff hanger... This is going to make me think all weekend, and i dont like to think... more than i have to atleast...

[Nerd-o-rama]

Hmm...the advent of Prestige Classes. And non-Core material. New rules jokes, ahoy!

And what self-respecting Cleric would take a PrC? Totally unnecessary. Except maybe Hospitaler. Or Thaumaturgist, maybe.

[FlyingCow371]

Do any of the others have prestige classes? They seem to be using fairly standard abilities. Elan is a fun character.

[Jonathan327]

...it's the perfect Elan class. Good god.

[brionl]

Hoody Hoo!
So, not a swashbuckler then. Good, I didn't think that was right. Anybody care to identify Julio's book though?

[TakZero]

Huh. I guess Elan'll be the first one of the OotS to take a prestige class, then.

[fruityjanitor]

Haha! Gogo prestige classed Elan! Sweet!

[Bronzeevil]

Woah, a class Elan is good at? The apocalypse is upon us!

[StickMan]

Yes oh my god yes that was pure gold. Elan is going to be good. Thats just odd.

Elemental Savant for the win!

Stop looking at me like that.

[Angela Christine]

Heeeee!


So is that a real prestige class, or a homebrew?

[musicnerd]

ooh, i'm liking this development!

[kenjigoku]

Amazing simply amazing

[Lord Edward]

Great comic! And now we know how Elan's going to defeat Nale.

[Aerysil]

"There is something I must tell you... I am not left handed!"

*skewer*

[theKOT]

Awesome!

This comic is good. While it is just a dialogue strip, the jokes and plot points are perfectly balanced in such a way that keeps it from dragging at all. This prestige class is a very cool idea and I really like the degree and manner of the 4th wall breaks. I can't find much wrong with this one, but it lacks importance and/or degree of hilarity to be a ten 9/10

I wonder what witty one-liners Elan will use to defeat Nale. Anyone have some ideas?

[Gopher]

Well, the class certainly fits Elan, munchkiny or not. Great comic as usual.

[Sekko]

I can see Elan not being able to think of any "witty one liners" when it is time. LOL

[SalSar_Thiran]

This si perfect and suddenly Elan competance seems much more appropriate

[Leo_Forestclaw]

You gotta love those discount bins and third party source books... ;-)

And anytime you can fit in a Star Wars reference into DnD is a golden moment for me. :-D

[Dawnstrider_Moogle]

Hah! That's perfect for Elan! In fact, I really want to play that class...but I think anyone I'd play with would get a damage bonus against ME, in real life, thanks to how bad the puns would get...

Anyway, now he gets to show what his 18 Charisma is worth OVER the hood!

[The Giant]

So is that a real prestige class, or a homebrew?

It is an invention of mine, though I won't rule out that there might be some similar class in a third-party sourcebook somewhere, since I have hardly read all such books that have come out since the advent of Third Edition. Basically, the Duelist PrC wasn't good enough because it used Intelligence too much to be useful to Elan, so I invented one more appropriate.

[Atheist_Cleric]

Alright! The OOTS member least proficient in combat scored a prestige class that will allow him to be devastating with his weapon of choice! Sweet. Man, I hope one of the next comics is a big one of Nale and Elan fighting, with Elan totally wasting Nale with his new ability.

[Wolfie_1066]

It's true! Elan did take a level in Badass!

horay for Elan! i wonder what all the abilitys will be like...i bet Roys just going to loooovee this and by that i mean that were going to ahve a repeat of this strip: http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0141.html HORAY FOR ELAN!
