I'm using 25; I'll wait for someone else to chime in.
Ah well.
Thanks.

Is there any point to Manyshot? It seems worse than Rapid Shot.
Also, is my new character at my current characters' level (18th, I think) or at -1 (17th, I think)?

Standard action - you can Manyshot and move 30 feet (or move 30 feet and Manyshot) and get X arrows at your target (up to five, and it's just the one attack roll, so all or nothing), while with Rapid Shot, you have to stop and take a the full attack action (but you've got better chances to hit).

Thanks. .rtf write-up attached.

Does my new character get that +2000XP bonus from Ashtons' vote?

Manyshot + shot on the run = you're kind of hard to pin down. And don't provoke an attack of opportunity from using a ranged weapon.

And yeah, it's 32 point buy. You start at the XP level of the lowest character, which would be Kaylin... and that's near 17th level, I think.

Let's see... your character died going out the door, True Ressurection not readily available....

So lowest surviving -1, or current -1, whichever's higher.

And XP applies in the best possible order in this instance - which means it goes to the new character after death penalties.

Ok, thanks.

In case it's important, Narf, I show my experience as being 165034. Looking forward to seeing what you've come up with

Default Re: OT: Narf has gone looney and wants to GM.

Current surviving -1 would be level 19. If the XP total of highest surviving party member, it would be 191102, minus that by 19,000. And that's 172,101 thousand... plus 2,000 for XP. And ouch, I had a tooth surgically extrated, and that hurt.
