Kedian, did you buy Insaniquarium Deluxe? o.o; Before I knew it, my 60 minute trial expired. I was in the middle of Tank 2-5 when it suddenly closed out on me. @_@

I thought everyone knew I was a naughty pirate, like Lunar.


Ah.. Okay then, in that case.. I'll make like Zenk and have my Space Pirates do the dirty work for me. XD Though I'll lost my saved data of reaching 2-5. I can do that again in less than an hour.

>_> This is probably getting annoying but another D&D question. I've looked through all the books my friend left with me but I cant find the answer.
As I stated earlier I was going to make a template character using either half fiend of half dragon. Well I went with dragon and my dragon choice has a breath weapon that is confusing me. This is how it reads

Quote:
Breath Weapon (su): A sapphire dragon breathes a cone of nearly inaudible sonic energy. in addition to making a reflex saving throw against sonic damage, each creature within the cone must succeed at a will save (same DC) or become panicked for 1d4 rounds

I understand the second half the the weapon but what exactly is sonic damage? I cant find it anywhere. sweatdrop


The damage type only really matters when you're doing resistance against a certain type of damage or something. Sonic damage is still applied like normal damage, as are fire, cold, electricity, and acid. They just go around standard damage reduction and are affected only by DR associated with them--e.g. DR sonic/10 would prevent the first 10 points of sonic damage each round.

*is beginning to wonder why he still has the books* eek Yes, I'm a nerd. No way around it.

That's the problem I cant find where it says what the damage is. All I've found is that some sonic attacks can deafen it's target and that a Destrachan and use sonics to destroy certain things. But there is no 'd whatever die type' damage listings that I can find. whee

Look in the template description. Look for tables for different kinds of dragons if the entries are semi-combined. There isn't any specific amount of damage that a sonic attack does. Think long sword and short sword--both are slashing damage, but different amounts.

There is no template description for any gem dragons. They are in MM2, the Half Dragon template is in MM1 sweatdrop

A dragon's breath weapon damage is determined by its age. For a half-dragon...

It varies based on the dragon race. I'd say take an average of the damage listed in the MM.

Well then, you'll just have to improvise. *DUN DUN DUN* That, and get DM approval for it. Check the other half-dragons and compare the breath weapons, etc, and try to balance it. Also keep in mind that sonic generally does less damage, but does the deafen/whatever in some cases, and also usually ignores the hardness of objects. (think DR for items) You could also check the Wizards of the Coast site and see if they have released a template for that. (they release a bunch of "official" content online, and the rules explanations are very helpful)

That would be HUGE, Ember. A half dragon is capable of maybe the same a young adult at MAX. And that's pushing it...

Can't get enough of Insaniquarium. @_@ And I haven't even checked out the other modes either. If there's no leeway around it, I'll more likely pay the $19.95. LoL. I still do have those 70 $20 bills all un-wrinkled nicely in my other wallet..


Locke Sir, Buy me Soul Calibur II. XD

Eh, sorry. Should've been clearer. Take the average of the half-dragon damage.

The problem with that one is that sonic usually does less than everything else... sweatdrop I'd give an approximation, but I don't have the info to base it on, since I left my books at home. crying (big mistake)

Could you label those a bit, please? Right now, I don't know if they're half-dragon, gem dragons, a specific dragon, or what...
