"Aye. Let us rid the land of this evil."

: "That's not really what I meant," Keyleth said, glancing at the dishes. Poor girl must be thoroughly conditioned if this was the first thing she thought of. "I was asking if you needed help "dealing" with Michael. I know you have those knives now, but..."

Q-7

Sam shook her head. This meeting had gone about as well as she could have hoped.

Having had a look up of what it'd cost to get a full set of leatherworking tools, optional things included, it'd be about £160

Not cheap, but when compared to a blacksmithing intro course (£300) definitely cheap. It also has the advantage of being something I could do in, say, the garage.

But, were I to go ahead with this, I'd rather get back home and see what we have that I could use. I'd be unsurprised to find my dad had some tools that'd make entirely acceptable replacements, given how he accumulated tools on the off-chance he'd use them.

If you're looking for that general kind of hobby, chainmail is very cheap to get started with. The only actual tools you need for butted mail are needlenose pliers.

And the cost of the metal is...?

The Kirby series is no stranger to brutality. As cutesy as the main stuff is, final bosses and the like tend to be cosmic horrors with unfathomable motives.

Games full of fluffy charm and whimsical music culminate in bloodsoaked battles against eldritch abominations lurking in the hellish void.

Enemy DG shouldn't be taken into account in the first place. Anyway, even if 15 for 2 is less flexible, you still get more bang for your buck in terms of hard numbers. More damage, and more crit to spare.

The argument was that you wouldn't get much use out of the skill as proposed (15 crit for 2 damage) at low levels. I'm pointing out that you could, quite easily, be using that skill as often as you like right out of the first-class gate.

If someone isn't using crit-boosting PSs or support bonuses because they don't want those things...well, they're never going to be getting a lot of use out of any version of the class skill without using high-crit weapons like the Killing Edge.

Example: In order to use the Merc's new class skill as BMM42 wants it, you absolutely need to cap SKL to get even a single point of extra damage off it. If you don't have critting weapons, supports, or crit-boosting PSs, the skill is basically useless. Face it, if you have a class skill based around crit you need to invest in it somewhat.
