When then joining the game I started with the original character so what was the point of the 2nd character?

On an unrelated note, interesting to see that Myrnath still appears to groan and move about even with a totally empty head. Somewhat unexpected given the, you know, totally....empty.....head. smile

ok, back to it.


If you have the ingame sounds on, you hear a voice asking what you desire. So I am assuming it will be a love interest or something along those lines.

So why am I doing 2 damage to the imps? I'm not sure if there's some sort of new hidden feature within the Armor Class system to reduce damage or if the imps were resistant to slashing or if damage was capped to make the tutorial not too difficult or too easy, but it felt like I couldn't trust the dice rolls.


The imps have resistance (they take half damage) to nonmagical weapons. If you click the arrows in the right hand side you can see the damage calculation, including seeing that the damage was halved. Playing a rogue, I was worried my sneak attack damage wasn't being applied correctly before I saw that they had resistance.


I was looking if someone had answered this. I thought the same when I originally saw my damage numbers.
