>What is Exalted?
An epic high-flying role-playing game about reborn god-heroes in a world that turned on them.
Start here: http://theonyxpath.com/category/worlds/exalted/
>That sounds cool, how can I get into it?
Read the 3e core book (link below). For mechanics of the old edition, play this tutorial: http://jyenicolson.net/exalted/. It'll get you familiar with most of the mechanics.
>Gosh that was fun. How do I find a group?
Roll20 and the Game Finder General here on /tg/. With the new edition, though, chances are more games will crop up.

Last time, people were attempting to defend shitty justifications.
What shitty justifications used for 3e do you defend, anons?
I cry when the Scion 2 rules will be better than Exalted 3.
>>43668070
I'm okay with the current chargen system.
Craft is good
Craft is life
Craft knows whose jokes are funny and when to laugh
>>43668236
Craft is crap.
>>43668070
Removing step-by-step resolution in favor of just declaring activations for both opponents before an attack in an unspecified order simplifies the system and makes it more reliant on narrativism vs gamism and you're a rollplayer if you want more rigor.
>>43668537
Seriously, not having a strict order for activations makes the current system literally unplayable.
>>43668546
Not really? Attacker declares, defender declares, and off we go!
>>43668560
That's a houserule.
The factthat the issue is easily ruled away doesn't mean there' not an issue with RAW.
>>43668546
>literally unplayable
If you can only play by-the-book then maybe. Although it would be really nice if they clarified this.
>>43668745
With the amount of time they dedicated to this, with the money it costs and with all the bragging they did and are still doing about it I expect to play-by-the-book and for it to be fucking perfect.
I can get some werid Charms interactions slipping through but this is missing a critical component of the engine. This should not have slipped.
>>43668785
I'll agree that's an oversight, probably stemming from the devs making assumptions and forgetting to share them with their customers. They tested the system so there has to be a method they used. But I guess that's why they are still homebrewers and not professional game designers at heart.
Did they do anything about the art?
>>43669081
They are doing something, yes. Exactly what, I'm confused about.
>>43669081
They sent some of the artwork for replacement or adjustment by their respective authors. Apparently some of those weren't even finished? Dunno, I wouldn't expect too much but hopefully they will get rid of the worst offenders.
>>43669141
>Apparently some of those weren't even finished?
That picture of two dudes dancing in the rain and with weapons come to mind. They didn't have hands or feet and the photoshop effects were incredibly obvious.
>>43669174
There were multiple pictures I saw where the guy didn't even fully get rid of the fucking sketchlines under his paint.
>>43669174
That was a dude and old lady.
>>43668232
>I cry when the Scion 2 rules will be better than Exalted 3.
I'd be extremely happy if that was the case. I'm pretty satisfied with the Ex3 system, and I don't see why Scion 2E being even better would be a bad thing.
>>43669740
I heard Scion 2e was dropping the Storyteller system, is that true?
>>43669751
Yeah, I'm pretty sure it is. Apparently the new system will still use dicepools consisting of d10s and some other features familiar to White Wolf fans, but it won't be a new iteration of Storyteller.
>>43669760
Sweet, I like dicepool systems.
Maybe they'll be similar enough that we can steal some mechanics wholesale from one to the other and vice versa.
>>43669774
Yeah, that's kind of what I'm hoping for as well.
>>43669760
Ripping off DtD?
Wow, way to go LawfulNics
>>43669582
if the picture was related to the story of a dragon-blood and a solar, then the old lady sure didn't look like a senior dragon-blood.
>>43668070
>still being this butthurt
the fuck is your problem, man?
>>43670097
idk, she looked pretty old.
>>43669751
More or less. OPP actually owns the rights to Scion, so it's getting a new system, whereas WoD and Exalted will always be using "Heavily Modified Storyteller"
>>43668703
Whatever you say, spergy.
>>43670877
Damn it, I was hoping this thread would fall off Page 10 and we could make a new one instead of the same-faggot front-loading it with his bitching.
Can you guys help me out?
I'm building a Changing Moon Archer, and I'm not very good at building Lunars. The concept is that she's kind of a charming rogue.
I got the OK to use the Crimson Bow. How should I build this Lunar? 2.5 building rules and 35 xp on top.
>>43670911
I wish I knew, at this point I'd rather play Lunars homebrewed for 3E than go back to 2.5
>>43669751
>>43669760
>>43669774
Here's what the Scion 2e system (StoryPath) will look like: http://theonyxpath.com/codename-sardonyx-teaser-the-first/
http://theonyxpath.com/codename-sardonyx-teaser-the-second/
http://theonyxpath.com/codename-sardonyx-schemas-and-scales/
It looks like it wouldn't be hard to do an Exalted hack with the full rules.
Running a 3E game this Friday, set along the Dreaming Sea. Any advice?

funny shit, this
>>43671061
I love the post by >>43668070 because he couldn't actually post an argument in the last thread, and decided to get really passive aggressive in this one.
>>43671044
Don't go anywhere remotely close to that island full of mutants and super-perfect Sorcerers unless you have most of the E1 Integrity charms.
Wait, you're running it.
Start on the island of super-perfect Sorcerers and mutants.
Alternatively, the City Trapped in Shadow is pretty cool.
>>43671094
>Start on the island of super-perfect Sorcerers and mutants.
What is the reason why?
>>43671109
Curses. All the magic curses.
>>43671109
Shit be wack, pretty much. There's credible threats to a starting Solar in the form of all the crazy superhumans at the summit, there's STALKER-like environmental hazards all over the place, most of the serf population are incredibly mutated and half of those are completely insane.
It's also teetering on the edge of complete social collapse, so there's an opportunity for the Circle to take power there. Just, watch out for those anomalies, if you don't want mutations out the wazoo.
>>43671154
interesting...
Anyone know where to find the shortened Charm text? I did see it a while back but now I can't remember were and obviously I'm far too retarded to have bothered to save it.
Can anyone give me a run down on the functions and effectiveness of the social abilities; Presence, Performance, Socialize, Integrity, and any others that I might have missed.
>>43671330
Presence: Single target social influence, but usable in almost any situation.
Performance: Multi-target social influence, but more applicable to formal situations or speeches.
Socialize: Keeps your own intimacies hidden, and makes it easier to find out other people's intimacies. Both are very important to get ahead socially.
Integrity: A vital component of Resolve, which determines your character's ability to resist being influenced.
>>43671315
Check the homebrew folder.
>>43671427
Is Presence more important than Socialize or vice versa? What are the must buy charms of each tree? Also, I forgot to ask about Linguistics, what's that like?
>>43671464
That's only a handful of Charms.
>>43671507
>Is Presence more important than Socialize or vice versa?
It doesn't really work that way. Presence and Socialize do their jobs through totally different approaches; it's like trying to say whether Thrown is more important than Brawl.
>What are the must buy charms of each tree?
Harmonious Presence Meditation is a good buy for most anybody. Socialize has some good entry-level Charms iirc.
>Also, I forgot to ask about Linguistics, what's that like?
Twists people around. Linguistics will mess a guy up.
Can you guys help me with an artifact?
Long-story short, I'm trying to figure out how an artifact's evocations are going to work in terms of damage. It's point is to peg an enemy/multiple enemies with it gaining stacks before exploding these stacks for bonus damage on a decisive.
It's a Thrown weapon, and the stacking part is it's attunement passive ability.
Kinda like pic related, except with flowers.
>>43671518
Yes, because it's not done. You're being impatient.
I had an idea for a Wyld Behemoth, can someone tell me if this sort of thing can be a Behemoth?
Basically, its main feature is that wherever it goes its steps leave behind a field of beautiful, scintillating flowers that spread incredibly rapidly at first, quickly covering several rangebands in a few turns before slowing down to the growth of 'normal' super-agressive plants.
Their main feature is that their petals (as well as the behemoth's skin) are covered by a sweet-smelling substance that acts like a drug, overloading everyone that touches it with images of the infinite possibilities of the Wyld. Affected people just lay down where they stand smiling dopey, touching more flowers getting more and more dosages until they die of thirst.
>>43671745
I like it.
>>43671544
>artifact's evocations
*evocation
>>43671585
I could have sworn someone else had finished it, though.
>>43671745
Sure, it's nice, but what's kept its flowers to spreading all over Creation?
>>43671745
Not bad.
You can also go 'Greener than you think' all the way and make those flowers incredibly, supernaturally difficult to destroy and quickly spreading. The Green Armageddon is coming.
>>43671786
ah, I should have mention, the further 'removed' a flower from it the less fertile it is. The originals can spread in combat-relevant time but after a few dozen generations they eventually become almost/completely sterile.
>>43671802
well, not green exactly. They're supposed to be all the colors of the rainbow.
>>43671814
I mean it'd be funny if the group of Exalts tasked with bringing it down were able to get a look at the things face, if it has one, and discover it was baked out of it's fucking mind.
>>43671814
>The originals can spread in combat-relevant time but after a few dozen generations they eventually become almost/completely sterile.
I would argue that this is an unnecessary limitation. A Behemoth should be a very large class menace. There is nothing larger class than a multicolored tide of flowers eating all other plant life, animal life, and spreading like a monstrous sea of destruction.
>>43671836
Not everything should be apocalyptic though.
>>43671836
Behemoths are local apocalypses, not global ones.
>>43671836
And making everything that survives high as a kite.
>>43671544
Evocations of [Artifact Name]
A Solar or [Other Losers] attuned to [Artifact Name] gains a power to near death to those it hits. Every time this weapon hits a withering attack on someone, the user gains one less initiative, but instead a flower grows on that enemy. The number of flowers applies differing effects: [A. N.: Change detonate to whatever you want] them, destroying them, but converting one decisive damage die to a success for each flower. Plucking a single flower from someone is a simple action that anyone in close range to (or the target themself) can take, though it may require a brawl gambit if they don't want the flowers removed because, I dunno, it compliments their natural style or something.
It's not my best work, but you're the kind of losers who plays League, so it's good enough for you. :^)
>>43671544
>EVOCATIONS
>A Solar or [Others] who attunes to [artifact] gains an additional benefit to all of their Withering attacks. As long as an attack hits, a flower blooms from them opposite the spot struck by [artifact]. For each flower already on a target when they are hit, the wielder of [artifact] gains +1 to their Withering damage.
>Withering Blossom Malevolence
>Cost: 5m, 5i; Mins: Essence 1; Type: Simple;
>Keywords: Perilous
>Duration: Instant
>Prequisites: None
>Wrapping the essence lines connecting the flowers made by [artifact] around their fingers, [Wielder] yanks them towards themselves. The flowers respond in kind by quickly withering into a spine of solid essence, then shooting through the target they're attached to and returning to [Wielder].
>Activating this Evocation requires that there is at least one of [artifact]'s flowers within Long range. On activation, the flowers are consumed, each dealing (Essence) Lethal damage to the target they're attached to, before Soak.

>>43671835
>>43671836
great, now all I need is a physical form for the Behemoth and a way of mechanically modelling the poison.
taking bashing damage in crash sounds kind of not like it, IMO. I've been thinking about draining wp in crash or maybe requiring willpower rolls in crash to not just lie down and touch more flowers.
I just had a horrible idea for a Lunar MA
>Dolphin Polishing Technique.
Basically lets you steal another Lunars Totems for a limited amount of time.
>>43672167
Right, shit, I forgot Soak doesn't matter for Decisive damage in 3e.
So, ignore the "before Soak" part of the evocation. Problem solved.
>>43672250
That's not how either of those things work.
>>43672267
It was meant to be a horrible, horrible joke about Dolphin Rape. It could have been worse, i could have talked aboutDucks
>>43672285
Well, I don't really know where I was going with it myself.
What exactly is 3e's First Age supposed to be? What's the point of having it when it's going to be kept "mysterious" and "mystic" (fuck that bullshit excuse so hard) and never detailed in the game line?
Why do the devs think that Twilights aren't smart enough to codify how Essence works and build technology with it?
>>43672267
>>43672285
Well, can either of you come up with something that makes a bit more sense?
>>43672310
>Why do the devs think that Twilights aren't smart enough to codify how Essence works and build technology with it?
Because that's boring and if you like it you're playing the game wrong
>>43672310
>What exactly is 3e's First Age supposed to be?
An ephemeral and distant place that each actor in the setting will have different ideas about.
What's the point of having it when it's going to be kept "mysterious" and "mystic" (fuck that bullshit excuse so hard) and never detailed in the game line?
So that it can remain a goal for characters (namely Babby's First Twilight) to pursue while not all actually pursuing the same thing in religious lockstep.
>Why do the devs think that Twilights aren't smart enough to codify how Essence works and build technology with it?
1) Why do you assume it's a question of smartness?
2) Magitech still exists, it just isn't slathered all over everything and treated like the One True Path to Utopia like a Krispy Kreme truck overturned.
>>43672341
Well, for one, make it a Lunar Charm, not an MA. And for two, you have the Lunar Hunt and kill another Lunar. And for three, it's a question of whether to have it add "another totem" (which might not mean anything in 3e) or chimerizing your totem with theirs.
>>43672341
Yes, yes I can. A MA that focuses on defending a static object, like a building or just a pole buried in the ground, using it both as a weapon to complement the style and cover, Jackie Chan style.
Is that Laughing Wounds adaption in the 3e homebrew any good, guys? At a glance, it looks pretty nice.
>>43672423
Laughing at injured people is rude, anon. Laughing at your own injuries is insane.
>>43672399
I like it.
>>43672351
>1) Why do you assume it's a question of smartness?
Because the overall dev position is "magitech doesn't exist anymore because MYSTERIOUS and MYSTIC as if Twilights aren't smart enough to figure out that shit anyway. It's the flat "it doesn't work that way QED" without any in-universe justification that bugs me.
>2) Magitech still exists, it just isn't slathered all over everything and treated like the One True Path to Utopia like a Krispy Kreme truck overturned.
Problem is...technology is good. There's a reason why we use it. It makes zero sense for the Twilights to NOT make magitech. They have literally near-infinite resources, the sagacity of a thousand geniuses in EACH of them, thousands of years to work on stuff, and immense world-shaping power.
There's this belief that this cheapens the "magic" of the setting, but that's bullshit. The fact that 2e First Age Twilights were able to fucking industrialize the creation of artifacts is a representation of their immense skill and the mind-boggling abundance of the First Age--they turned the magical into the mundane.
Magitech in 2e was one of the main factors that got me into Exalted in the first place. Science Fantasy is easily my favorite genre of all time. To have the devs and a shitload of deluded nut-riding fans go "but that's WROOOOOOOOONG" pisses me the fuck off. Man what the FUCK happened to the epic anime fantasy game I fell in love with.
At least the system isn't shit anymore. But at the expense of the setting.
>>43672399
That's actually pretty close to what Heaven's Ladder was supposed to be.
>>43672368
Well I guess I'm just one of those people who can't into Exalted.
>>43672423
It shouldn't horribly break the game or anything but I haven't tried it yet.
>>43672511
>Because the overall dev position is "magitech doesn't exist anymore because MYSTERIOUS and MYSTIC as if Twilights aren't smart enough to figure out that shit anyway. It's the flat "it doesn't work that way QED" without any in-universe justification that bugs me.
"Magitech" as a label doesn't exist anymore. Magitech, the thing, still exists. Warstriders exists. First Age Artifice is all but explicitly the codeword for the things magitech used to cover in this edition.
>Problem is...technology is good. There's a reason why we use it. It makes zero sense for the Twilights to NOT make magitech. They have literally near-infinite resources, the sagacity of a thousand geniuses in EACH of them, thousands of years to work on stuff, and immense world-shaping power.
Technology is good, yes. Go ahead and have your Twilight spark an industrial revolution like five million first-timer Twilights before him. Magitech does not fill the same role, in the setting, as technology does.
Magitech--excuse, First Age Artifice--is BALLS HARD to do, and gives enormous returns on investment. It's singular wonders, not mass-produced works. That is the role of magitech in the setting.
>There's this belief that this cheapens the "magic" of the setting, but that's bullshit. The fact that 2e First Age Twilights were able to fucking industrialize the creation of artifacts is a representation of their immense skill and the mind-boggling abundance of the First Age--they turned the magical into the mundane.
And why do you assume that's what the 3e First Age did too? Why would you want ANY setting element to turn the magical into the mundane?
>>43672588
This anon is correct on every point.
>>43672511
>Problem is...technology is good. There's a reason why we use it. It makes zero sense for the Twilights to NOT make magitech.
Why are you replying with this to a post that specifically says that magitech still exists? Besides, while there are reasons why we use technology, not all of those reasons exist for the Exalted. Technology isn't necessarily superior to what Exalts can achieve through their own Charms and old-fashioned, non-technological Artifacts. Technology sure would be nice for the people who aren't Exalted, but eh, who cares about those guys anyways? Pursuing technological advancement isn't necessarily all that good use of a Twilight's time compared to performing Sorcerous Workings or forging a daiklave meant for countering the strengths and exploiting the weaknesses of a particularly nasty behemoth who's been causing trouble.
>>43672588
>Magitech, the thing, still exists.
Not really. Now everything is pretentious special snowflake stuff.
>And why do you assume that's what the 3e First Age did too? Why would you want ANY setting element to turn the magical into the mundane?
I'm not a shallow fuckhead who cares about superfluous shit like that?
Your accusatory statement is based on the belief that "mundane = boring". I don't give a shit about that. I care about AESTHETIC. You can have a sci-fi/fantasy world but still have a magical aesthetic.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=apojWw_ptO0
^ That's a video about a cyborg demigod literally tearing apart an entire fleet of battleships (which are capable of spaceflight as well) by himself. Despite this, it still has a fantastical and epic feel like what Exalted is going for, and, even more, the aesthetics of everything retain a mystic and magical feel, despite the obvious Sci-Fi trappings.
That is what the First Age should be, in my eyes.
>>43672638
First of all: "Exalts are callous tyrants who don't give a shit about mortals" is a bad idea because who the fuck wants to play a sociopathic piece of shit like that? You're supposed to be a hero.
Second, magitech can assist Twilights and other Exalts. Running simulations of new spells and sorcerous workings? Recording all your data through a hologlyphic glass tablet instead of paper? Keeping track of multiple things or observing every inch of your manse with floating essence-projection screens? Come on, man.
>>43672712
>That is what the First Age should be, in my eyes.
Then it sure is a good thing the First Age is mysterious enough that it may very well have been that, huh. :^)
>Second, magitech can assist Twilights and other Exalts. Running simulations of new spells and sorcerous workings? Recording all your data through a hologlyphic glass tablet instead of paper?

That's all magitech you can still make. It will just be more significant; probably all as one single piece of Artifice, a massive Artifact N/A workshop.
>>43672310
>Why do the devs think that Twilights aren't smart enough to codify how Essence works and build technology with it?
They did, it's called Artifacts and Sorcerous Workings.
>>43672712
>I want sci-fantasy
But that's not Exalted is about anymore. The devs made a creative design decision. This does not make the game better or worse, just different.
If you don't like it, run the same system in a different setting.
>>43672824
>If you don't like it, run the same system in a different setting.
Fuck, just run exactly the same setting but with repeatable, mass-producable works. The devs aren't oppressing your fucking vision.
>>43672712
>That is what the First Age should be, in my eyes.
Okay. It's not what the First Age should be in my eyes. Luckily Ex3 probably won't go into detail about how the First Age really was, meaning both of us can have it the way we want.
>You're supposed to be a hero.
You're really not. I mean, you can be a hero, but it's not particularly expected of you - not being a hero in the modern sense, at least. You're supposed to be a guy who's got whole lotta power. Being a villain is as acceptable and makes as much sense as being a hero, and being neither villain or a hero, or a bit of both, is probably the way the average Exalt, insofar a there is such a thing, rolls.
>>43672791
>Then it sure is a good thing the First Age is mysterious enough that it may very well have been that, huh. :^)
>That's all magitech you can still make.
That's not what the devs said. They all but explicitly stated that anything with a technological or Science-Fantasy aesthetic doesn't exist, QED. No temple-battleships, no essence-projection screens, no hologlyphic tablets...
You know that first part of Keychain of Creation, where the Circle invades that fallen manse and encounters its AI? That can't happen in 3e. And I don't think I like that.
>>43672824
I think their decision is stupid and their reasoning is even stupider.
And I decided to just roll my eyes and work on my own Mythic Science Fantasy setting and game, but...I still like Exalted you know. I love the setting except for this one decision. I'm not going to just throw the game in the trash because of it, I just don't like it.
>>43672864
Except for the fact that the devs and their sycophants on the OPP forums will yell "BUT THAT'S WROOOOOOOOOOOOOONG" at you all day long, and their attitudes will rub off on players so that most people will prefer the 3e way.
Also I don't care as much about the whole industrialization part. What I care about is the Science-Fantasy aesthetic the 2e First Age had.
>>43672864
Unless you want a reproducible method for generating yellow jade. I mean, it's a reasonable thing for your Twilight or DB craftfag to want, but if your ST actually gives it to you...
>>43669751
Yes. Story Path is replacing Storyteller, and it is marvelous at bridging the gap between Storyteller and actual modern, playable games.
>>43670124
You seem confused. Is this normal for you?
>>43672912
>Except for the fact that the devs and their sycophants on the OPP forums will yell "BUT THAT'S WROOOOOOOOOOOOOONG" at you all day long, and their attitudes will rub off on players so that most people will prefer the 3e way.
Both OPP forum and RPGnet have plenty of people who like magitech. Also not everyone who plays Exalted frequents either of those forums. This problem exists mostly in your head, not in the real world. If you stopped bitching about your entirely subjective preferences not being shared by everyone and just ran Exalted the way you like, you'd have a lot less problems.
>>43670877
Asking for clear rules in a game that is crunch heavy isn't really sperglord material.
It's pretty basic expectations for a professional product. "Professional" and "product" very much in quotations here, because both appear to be very absent.

Don't feel too bad. Holdemorke can't into Exalted either.
By their own admission they haven't played the game.
>>43673050

I'm kinda surprised you backed the KS though, Strength of Many.
>>43673065
Whoah. Where's the source on this?
>>43673065
We really should call them Holdemorkt.
>>43673055
Well, if by "really obvious" you mean "there are at least three different ways to do this, depending on how you choose to read non-technical language" then sure, it's really obvious.
You can either say "attacker declares, then defender declares, then dice get rolled"
Or you can say "everyone declares whatever they want to in whatever order they want to until dice are rolled"
Or you can say "once the defender starts declaring the attacker can no longer declare and then the dice are rolled"
All of which change the tenor of the game somewhat. Between the first and last it's a significant change in tenor, because the attacker has to try to figure out what all the defender will try to do to counter them and miscalculation can carry serious drawbacks.
YMMV, but if you don't see how you can read all three of those into the words we currently have, you're not smart enough to read a newspaper editorial.
>>43672351
Personally I'll keep the magic age the same, magical internet and all.
If Water Parks with Hookers is a bad thing according to the devs, then let me be fucking wrong. I'll be busy getting blown by a DB hooker while going down a water slide.
>>43673055
It's really obvious from what?
Because it could easily go the other way with defender declaring first then attacker
Or it could go with an out bidding system or a secret bid or a secret outbid, we don't know, there's nothing in the text implying any of it
>>43673144
It's the first one, like they did in 1E and 2E.
>>43673184
>If Water Parks with Hookers is a bad thing according to the devs, then let me be fucking wrong. I'll be busy getting blown by a DB hooker while going down a water slide.
That can totally stay,it requires no sci-fi elements, and you can do it in the Second age too, with like a single working.
>>43673205
Are you sure about that?
Because I'm not.
The language is imprecise.
Which is what the complaint is.
>>43673065
I don't know why you're so hung up on Holdemorke being liars when you bullshit nonstop, friend.
>>43673205
Why is the first one? What you derive it from?
>inb4
I don't care about how it was done in two previous editions, even for a normal new edition of a game I'd expect enough mechanical rigor and clarity to be comprehensible to a newcomer
This is doubly true after Holdemorke shitted on everyone who worked on fluff and mechanics before them. This edition has their face and it's gotta stand on its own.
>>43673222
Hence the "whatever you say, spergy!"
>>43673096
>>43673239
It's weird because that's exactly what they said on the podcast they just did.
Are you saying they're lying, anon?
>>43673144
Maybe I am dumb (at least I'm very tired right now), but where is the difference between 1 and 3?
I also read it as 2 was intended, since nothing said something to the contrary.
>>43673248
Ok spergy.
>>43673250
Sure thing chief
I'll start paying attention to your opinion when you have an actual argument (ask your special needs teacher to help you develop one)
>>43673256
I listened to the podcast, they never said that.
Why keep lying?
>>43673260
The first is structured i.e. the attacker can take their time and pick charms. The latter is combative. The defender can simply declare their action at any point, at which time the rolls must occur.
There are a couple of other interpretations I've heard.
>>43673293
A 4th one I've heard is playing Charm-Chicken.
Each person announces a charm, and they only stop once they're not willing to raise anymore.
>>43673285
Your listening comprehension appears to be as poor as your reading comprehension, anon.
"I haven't even had a chance to play the game in about six years now." "Same." In effect, they've never played 2.5e and never played 3e. Ergo, they've never played the game in question (Exalted 3e).
Try to get at least 8 hours of sleep a night so you can keep up.
>>43673293
The latter sounds shockingly retarded and I'm not sure why you would ever see it as a valid interpretation.
>>43673265
>>43673250
>you're a sperg
>actually this is a legitimate complaint and here's some points illustrating my point of view
>that's why you're a sperg
ok Rand Brittain.
>>43673325
It was suggested because we have a certain player who always drags out their turns. Typically it ends with the ST going "Ok you're done. Defender uses these charms."
So you might have a time limit attached there. You might just go straight combative. But both are valid interpretations of the text block purporting to be the rules about operation order.
Which, if you're not clear, is the focus of the complaint.
>>43673322
But, they play tested the game and posted logs.
>>43673343
>ok Rand Brittain.
who in the fuck...
>>43673322
>never played 3e
Maybe because it's not out yet? And testing its various systems isn't exactly "playing"?
>>43673343
Oh please, like Rand would ever have the balls to call someone a sperg, Strength of Spergy.
>>43672948
>the gap between Storyteller and actual modern, playable games.
Harsh, anon.
Of course, you're also entirely correct.
>>43673325
Yes, it is. It's also a possible interpretation. Hence the game requiring the correct process plainly spelled out in text.
I don't know, maybe they can fit back an explanation of step by step resolution if they cut a bit of that horrendous Craft bloat or that Wyld Shaping Technique they designed to be unusable anyway.
>>43673371
>weak backhand
Come on now, you just accused someone of lying, got served, and all you've got is that weak backhand? Quit now while you're just ashamed.
>>43673369
It doesn't mean anything more than any of the other names. Think of it as some retard beating his chest and screaming "SAGE"
>>43673392
You're not arguing with just one person, sperglord.
>>43673389
>I don't know, maybe they can fit back an explanation of step by step resolution if they cut a bit of that horrendous Craft bloat or that Wyld Shaping Technique they designed to be unusable anyway.
D-do you even read what you're posting or do you just go out of your way to misinterpret everything in the most incompetent manner possible?
>>43673386
-…b-b-but what's so bad about Storyteller? I mean, you can hate a particular game, but nWoD2 seemed like a very beautiful modern sleek system. Then again, I haven't had the chance to play it, but still. What makes you hate Stioryteller per se?

So please enlighten me: where did my comprehension fail?
>>43673492
well thanks.
>>43673492
Because he thinks the minus thread is shit?
Because, like, it mostly is shit, no matter your feelings on the game.
Oh for fuck's sake. What is it about epic (as the genre) games that makes all their fans so terrible? You shitbadgers make this thread terrible and unreadable. You are bad and you should feel bad.
>>43673509
I listened to the podcast and I'm really missing the part where they said they /deliberately/ designed Wyld Shaping to be unusable, when all they said was they didn't want it overshadowing Craft completely like in 2E.
The problem lies in the thick gooey layer of paranoia between your ears and your broke-ass brain IMO.
Thing I don't get about the anti-Magitech/First Age Artifice/Whatever crowd is that they constantly blabber about "M-MUH BRONZE AGE AESTHETIC"
Well yeah, the Age of Sorrows does have a classical era aesthetic. It will continue to have it even if the First Age was filled with magic robots and genetically engineer servitor races.
The First Age is a golden age, and age undreamed of in the current "Spears and Swords" age by any but the the reborn God-Kings who created it once upon another life.
I'm saying you can have both sci-fantasy AND gritty bronze age mysticism.
>>43673542
>shitbadgers
And this is why we don't go into the Wyld kids!

I dunno... That could be a Malfean fauna.
>>43673612
oh dear god, you made it worse!
>>43673565
Then again this anon COULD be relating to the fact that Wyld Shaping literally makes behemoths climb out of nowhere and attack you. I myself don't consider it really bad, actually, since it is well mitigated later in the game, for when the charm seems to be designed. But it DOES make the Charm all but unusable early and mid-game.
>http://howsfamily.net/Exalted
is the person who makes this here? If so i guess i have some bug reports.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWHXexf2iHE
The Wyld is a strange place, yes?
>>43673464
Storyteller is really old. 20 years old? No other system is that old, even d20 is only 15 years old and people are well aware it's shit.
Storyteller is, fundamentally, imprecise. It was a decision taken with a mind to being more encouraging of role-playing than its contemporaries, AD&D(!) and RIFTS(!), to name a couple. Fundamentally, it is unchanged since then, although several refinements eventually led to nWoD 1e, which was somewhere between AD&D and 3e in that it still had vestigial (and often useless) callbacks to the older Storyteller engine.
The whole "natural language" versus "technical language" kerfluffle we had in these /exg/ threads underlines one of the major problems Storyteller has as an engine that were somewhat ameliorated when Rose Bailey (bless her heart) pushed for more technical language in nWoD.
>>43673491
Haha. Fate has its own problems, but it is notably better than Storyteller and derived systems.
>>43673492
Rand Brittain, actual sperglord. Pic related.
Also, amusingly, the anon accusing others of being sperglords in this thread.
>>43673623
Not out of nowhere, you're in the Wyld! And you only get a behemoth specifically if you roll badly and attract all sorts of unpleasant attention.
Then again, the only Behemoth described in the core-book thus far isn't at all threatening to a Solar, even in early-game.
>>43673671
>Then again, the only Behemoth described in the core-book thus far isn't at all threatening to a Solar, even in early-game.
Well then, make ones that ARE threatening. It's not that hard Sonny Jim.
>>43673669
>the anon accusing others of being sperglords in this thread.
Oh there's definitely more than one anon doing that. I know because I also think they're being sperglords.
>>43673669
Wait, were you the faggot whining about how Rand was such a bully in an earlier thread?

lmao you butthurt queef.
>>43673671
I'm not saying it's a bad idea, it's actually not that bad a counterbalance for a potentially unlimited-power Charm. I was just suggesting that MAYbe (I really don't know) that one other anon was suggesting WST to be unusable because of that part and not something heard in the podcast.
(Also: in a way, the Wyld IS 'nothing'. Well, actually, it is more of an 'everything', but at that level of abstraction, it's about the same)
>>43673652

Um, anon...?
>>43673652
Thank you for your answer.
>>43673565
I didn't even listen to the podcast. Know what I did? I read the Charm and applied some critical spirit to it. It's fucking unusable.
The xp cost? Harsh, but it's your xp and I guess if you really really want to invest it in WYld Shaping hey ho go for it.
The mote cost? Nearly makes it unusable, fortunately there's ways for other Solars to stick around and lend you motes while you do your thing. If any of your friends feels like dipping in Lore just so they can be walking breathing motes batteries for their Wyld Shaping friend, go for it, dudes! Remember that you are also paying for Excellencies and whatever success-adder of your choice.
The Willpower cost? Actually completely bearable by just you... If you have a relatively high Willpower. Of course WP is harder to raise and regain in this edition, so maybe ask your mote buddies to buy Will-Bolstering Method.
The difficulty? Oh boy oh boy. Let's say I want to make a single talent of magical materials? Enough to get filthy rich from but not even enough to craft a daiklave (maybe a short one). First I gotta sculpt land through phase 4 - four rolls at difficulty 5, 6, 7, 8. Then it's back from the start and to phase 3: thre rolls at difficulty 5, 6, 7. For a total of 7 wp, 105 motes and 14 xp. If I fail any of these rolls at any time I lose everything I've worked for and every xp and wp I spent on it.
The Charm is simply written to be unusable for anything that you couldn't get from other stuff anyway - and horribly overpriced as an alternative. about the only good thing that cna be said about it is that it requires very little in-character time - a meaningless advantage in a role-playing game where the players decide the flow of the narrative.
>>43673581
The same reason that people sperg out about the possibility of guns existing in Exalted. They don't want the setting to change from Bronze Age at all. They want it stuck there for eternity and static.
>>43673222
>>43673144
>>43673190
From the text:
>Charms that reroll or otherwise remove numbers from a roll's result perform this action before other Charms can act upon them. If an attacker's Charm rerolls 1s, a defender's Charm which turns 1s on the attack roll into negative successes will not function unless the Charm's text specifically says that it does.
It seems to be clear that attackers declare charms before defenders, based on this?
>>43674019
Not even that anon, but how the fuck do you get that reading from that text? It says only that some charms get RESOLVED before others.
>>43674019
Not really.
>>43674094
Because the example was with a defender declaring the use of their charms after an attacker did?
Sorry...
>>43674141
um, no it's not. It says nothing about declaring charms.
>>43673945
Dumb fuckers forget that giant mechs are Bronze Age as fuck.
Then again, the likelihood of anyone knowing Talos as anything other than a god in TES is slim...
>>43674226
And the Colossus of Rhodes is a thing.
>>43674226
The problem is that they want animoo mecha, not metal or stone giants piloted by magic.
>>43674335
>>43674335
The difference being a cockpit?
>>43674365
Indeed sir. I just like it if Warstriders were a mobile frame that amplified the soul(s) of the person/people piloting it and made weapons and armor out of that.
>>43674383
The difference being mechanical bits.
>>43674365
Because mecha are sci-fi.
>>43674417
I am half certain that I've heard of an anime like that.
>>43674434
So, if it's magic, it's okay.
But if it's magic moving a machine it's shit...
So Archimedes and Hero of Alexandria are too Iron Age?
>>43674552
Ok, mechanical is too broad a term. i mean there's a difference between sci-fi mecha and whatever steampunkish brass monstrosities of cogs and floating magic armor would fit Bronze Age.
>>43673144
>You can either say "attacker declares, then defender declares, then dice get rolled"
>Or you can say "everyone declares whatever they want to in whatever order they want to until dice are rolled"
Both methods yield the same end result because in both situations the defender will unleash a response that is proportional to the attacker's.
So use whatever option your group finds more fun because the difference is really academic.
>>43673190
>Because it could easily go the other way with defender declaring first then attacker
Ask yourself how most groups handle orders of operations in games that don't spell it out.
Protip: a person cannot declare a defense against an attack that hasn't happened occurred against them yet, regardless of the system.
>secret bids
No. Read the section on transparency again. Secrecy only applies to a couple of war charms in very specific circumstances.
A lot of the bullshit in these threads would go away if the anons hell-bent on proving the game is bad would actually read the rules.
>>43674019
>>43674141
No, that was not an example of Charm declaration, that was an example of order of operation of already-declared Charms influencing the same roll
>>43674652
>that hasn't happened occurred against them yet
Before telling others to read, you should probably step back for a while and actually learn English.
>>43674623
>whatever steampunkish brass monstrosities of cogs and floating magic armor would fit Bronze Age.
I was thinking of the Warstriders having Moonsilver joints, because that just seems like a sensible way to explain a machine moving as a man.
>>43674652
Sorry, I mistyped one part.
>Protip: a person cannot declare a defense against an attack that hasn't yet been made against them, regardless of the system.
>>43671745
>Their main feature is that their petals (as well as the behemoth's skin) are covered by a sweet-smelling substance that acts like a drug, overloading everyone that touches it with images of the infinite possibilities of the Wyld. Affected people just lay down where they stand smiling dopey, touching more flowers getting more and more dosages until they die of thirst.
Lets do...things with these flowers involving a herd of Beasts of Resplendent Liquid
>>43674652
Dude I can't believe this bullshit I'm reading.
Declaring a defense against an attack is one thing. It's also a thing that doesn't happen in Exalted due to defense being passives, thus no need to declaration.
Charm activations are enhancements of attacks and defenses that are already happening. There's no particualr reason attacker should always be first. There's no particular reason defender should always be first. Arguments could be made for both cases (mainly who do you want to be stronger due to having more info available for decisions). The rules have to resolve this or any solution you come up with falls into house rule territory.
Leaving such a fundamental mechanic of the game to house rule territory is a mark of poor professionalism and/or writing skills.
>>43674694
You don't need to explain it, it's magic. Nobody tried to explain the Colossus of Rhodes or Talos.
>>43674623
There is a difference, but the line doesn't fall in the same location for everyone.
There is overlap and one person's refluff of Greek fire is another person's too modern flamethrower.
>>43674683
I made a typo, it happens. Relax, Strength of Many.
>>43674737
Okay, bad choice of words there, I guess it having Moonsilver joints would look cool in the "Oh gods we wouldn't have enough Moonsilver for one joint if we wanted to replicate this." sort of way
>>43674738
True enough.
>>43674720
ohh, I hadn't considered that. I guess they could produce the drug, too. If you fed them the flowers.
>>43674737
>I don't know my mythology
Talos was pretty well explained.
A bronze man brought to live with ichor (that's god blood) he was killed when someone pulled out his plug and he bled out. Some myths further consider him the last of the Bronze men, indicating either a robot race or mass production.
Holden getting really frustrated on rpg.net as people post mechanical fixes and better systems than the shit he tried to shove down peoples' throats.
Meltdown in...
>>43674812
And we can expect your product in Yu Shan, when?
>>43674813
I mean in a more mechanical sense, like how his joints work, or how he sees and talks while lacking human organs, that kind of nitpicky, unimportant things.
>>43674729
>There's no particualr reason attacker should always be first.
Let me give an example.
Bill: I attack Bob.
Bob: Oh yeah, well I defend with X, Y, Z.
versus
Bill: I defend against Bob's attack with X, Y, Z.
Bob: I attack... Josh?
One makes way more sense than another!
>>43674694
Sounds like a fun way to make maintenance a nightmare, or just more relevant to the story as a whole. These joints cannot be repaired without an unholy amount of moonsilver. That damaged control ligature can only be replaced with a new part composed of yellow jade.
>>43674861
Ah, apologies for the snide snark back then.
In some versions he is implied go be a functional human but made of Bronze given movement through the divine blood in his veins. Like, functional circulatory system. However, that one is obscure and in all possibility fan fic from centuries later.
>>43674838
Nigga I realize you are tsundere for Holden but shilling for notanautomotan's shitty heartbreaker is kinda pathetic, given how many other people are also criticizing it.
"You're on the road to failure.
You have not defined any parameters, set up any overarching goal, nor otherwise lay down the basic design statements that answer the fundamental questions - "What is Exalted? What do I want out of Exalted? How am I going to achieve these goals?"
You have pretty much copy-pasted ES and Aleph's houserules. So far, you have done no work, but worse than this, you have already decided to use a specific paradigm anyway, before you even answered the basic questions that should tell you what paradigm to choose.
You took a new set of attributes and abilities because they are "neat," and intend to build your personal new edition from this basis. You are, ironically, doing the exact same mistake the SV crowd has accused the devs of doing - holding on to the Storyteller system as "legacy code" and not reworking things from the ground up."
I mean, unless you're notanautomaton, in which case, fuck off?
>>43674885
And so on, there should be parts that no one wants to remove, take apart and study because:
>A) They might not know how to put them back together afterwards.
>B)There's no telling what removing them would do to the Warstriders functionality.
>>43674907
See that's the perfect amount of "it's magic, lol". It's not too little that it's boring, not too much to bog down the setting with magic science.
>>43674871
You are dense, aren't you?
We are talking about Charm declaration, not declaration of attack
The fact that Bill is attacking Bob is already set in stone when we are at the point when we declare respective Charms
Your example would be:
Bill: I attack Bob
Bob: [doesn't need to say anything because DV is passive and is automatically happening]
Bill: OK, so I'm attacking, now Charm declaration, uh... You first
Bob: No way, I want to know what you are activating for your attack
Bill: Well I wnat to know whatyou are activating for your defense before deciding if I want to spend motes on this attack at all!
[Mexican standoff until it's time to pack up and close the session]
Seriously I hate feeling like I'm talking to a mentally handicapped person because I know you aren't, you are just being contrarian for no valid reason

Essence driven.
An Underworld version likely would require actual godblood. A Solar version may be powered off prayers or the divine might of it's maker. Infernal versions are possibly Demons shaped that way that must constantly eat gods to keep fueled.
However, yes, designing a fully formed and functional body from a block of Bronze would be, while labour (and likely medicine as well as craft) intensive would be a flavourful feat.

The problem with Magitek is that people are not creative and make it look exactly like modern technology or banal Sci-Fi. Its a terrible aesthetic and really fucking boring: Essence Internet, Essence trains, Essence space ships, etc
I have no problem with magitek in Exalted as long as it both has a different aesthetic and different feel from conventional Sci-Fi. More Miyazaki Castle in the Sky less cyberpunk

How about Naussica or Laputa?

The First Age was raised to Glorious Heights unimaginable! *imagines the modern day exactly but crosses out 'electricity' and replaces it with 'essence'*

Some day, bold warrior, we will get notanautomaton his rightful place as lead dev of Exalted.
Until then, we must shill harder for our lord and god.

Incidentally I really don't want you or no-caps-guy posting here, but we all have to suffer through it.

You seem 9000% buttmad.
How angry are you every morning when you're reminded you're a lying liar? I don't get up super early just to start new threads, but it's a really great side benefit of getting up super early.

Please break down exactly what is superior about notanautomaton's system. Please. PLEASE.
I need this from you. Get off your fat ass and start typing this shit. It's the only thing that I actually want from your fat, filth-ridden fingers.

Hey now, there were hover boards, it's at least near future.
However point taken, the space between sci Fi and sci fantasy can be a bit odd.

I like Holden, hth

I'm sorry I don't have the unconditonal love for notanautomaton's homebrew that you do, anon. Unlike yourself, I am not HIV positive, so there is nothing for his posts to cure...
>>43675487
yes but he has managed to insult a significant portion of the fanbase
whereas conrad's only insult was arguably 2e lunars
>>43675487
Me too.
Not because he is particularly good, but because he makes people I otherwise dislike really mad.
>>43675524
Which had some good points. At least compared to 1e. But 1e Lunars were just so terrible its stupid to compare.
>>43675539
congratulations on your life, it seems everything's going swimmingly
>>43675524
>yes but he has managed to insult a significant portion of the fanbase
Insulting you is excellent and good though.
>whereas conrad's only insult was arguably 2e lunars
Then he should die.
Fuck off with Silver Solars.
>>43675557
i wasn't really defending it.
i'm just saying it's only arguably conrad's fault, because most people blame alan alexander
