No one has said Hoke is getting the weapon though.

Actually all it takes is 500 Gold (easily obtained for 50 GP), a garnet (easily obtained in another month or so) and Hoke will have it. I hope you're kidding about the last part though.

Fine, I'll just make sure to buy all the garnets when Halloween comes around to keep them from Hoke. Sometimes sacrifices must be made.

We are? We'll play fair, just saying we have a contingency plan on top of the slightly less fair contingency plan of giving all the gems to the Harlot and having her flee the battle.

"Might be best Nur," Skrall grabbed an arrow from his quiver and let loose at the Crystal Titan from the back row with his composite bow. Battle Order: Namyrra Hoke Skrall Alexis Stigveladi Nur

Seems to me you already claimed an Electro Gear and who's to say Skrall won't be needing that mace for later?

Actually the easiest thing to do would be feed Hoke a Kraken Fang then have him stand in the back row and counter-strike the thing to death.

First we have to beat the sucker who restores 3100 health to himself on a special damage roll.

I think his point is quantity of quests, not amount of time spent in Heroica.

OoC: I'm fine not accepting the challenge, what about the rest of you? "Well I'm all for shoving off fer the Titan, shall we?"

That's the norm, doesn't mean one can't be hopeful for that one special item though.

My point wasn't so much concerned with item usefulness as it was tailored usefulness. Everyone likes that moment when they see an item and they know that the item was just "made" for their character.

To be fair, almost the majority of Gut's equipment has never been specifically unique to his build. Gut's dancing shoes have only become so after serious imbuement, the armor is pretty much equal to anything in the market-place, and the gloves are readily available in the marketplace as well. Some QM's are just better (whether for good or ilk) at designing equipment drops for their players specific builds in a meta-gamy sort of way. I wouldn't say Guts is the only one out there in the same situation though, so he may not be alone as he thinks he is. Out of curiosity, do most people design loot (either new consumables or special weapons/artifacts) before or during a quest, i.e. does the class/level/current inventory of your party determine what your enemies drop?

Skrall caught a few minutes of shut eye before opening up his satchel and consuming a Kraken's Fang, Mead, and Nostrum.

"Ah yes, one for yerself and one for Stigveladi."

"No matter, let's hope that titan ain't too much to worry about. Let's get some rest." Loot Distribution: Namyrra: Pick Axe, 3x Dirt Bombs Hoke: Deadly Venom, 2x Dirt Bombs Alexis: Deadly Venom, 3x Dirt Bombs Skrall: Deadly Venom, 2x Dirt Bombs Nur: Pick Axe, 3x Dirt Bombs Stigveladi: 3x Dirt Bombs

Skrall swiped the spider web off of his face before firing again at the spider, "Nur, I think the lady has herself covered." Battle Order: Hoke Namyrra Hoke Namyrra Skrall Alexis Nur Stigveladi

"That's fine Stigveladi, we'll try and keep ya up this time."

Skall fired another shot at Tomb Widow B from the back row. "These vermin are gettin' a bit annoyin' don't you all think?" Battle Order: Hoke Namyrra Namyrra Hoke Skrall Nur Stigveladi Alexis

"Alexis, ya want to keep that second goblin off of Hoke's back?"

"Stigveladi, I'll take care of bringin' the Tomb Widows down. If ya want to try sealin' them that would be appreciated."

OoC: Stigveladi's health hasn't been updated and you forgot the Tomb Widow A, though it wouldn't have done any damage to Hoke anyways. Skrall pulled another shaft and took aim at Tomb Widow B, "Goblin's a bit too quick fer me it would seem. Keep at that infatuated one, Alexis." Battle Order: Hoke Hoke Namyrra Namyrra Skrall Alexis Nur Stigveladi

Skrall pulled back on another arrow and fired again at Hobgoblin C, "Alexis, keep that second hobgoblin busy with that fan of yers, make sure you stay close." Battle Order: Hoke Hoke Namyrra Namyrra Skrall Alexis Nur Stigveladi

"Alright, let's send these creeps back into their hole in the ground." Battle Order: Stigveladi Namyrra Hoke Hoke Namyrra Skrall Nur Alexis

Skrall regained his feet while nodding a thanks to Stigveladi, "I'm getting too old fer this." The ogre knocked a new arrow and fired at Hobgoblin C from the back row. "Namyrra, it ain't lookin' like it's that first Hobgoblin's lucky day, perhaps you might be able to work some of yer stunnin' magic on him?"
