Today, 01:20 AMI feel confident in saying that your parties "antics" are 100% a player problem. That's not to say there isn't an important discussion to be had...530 replies | 20592 view(s)

Yesterday, 01:56 PMHard agree. While some extremely virulent poisons might do immediate damage, their effects should be debilitating rather than damaging IMO. Paralysis...530 replies | 20592 view(s)

Yesterday, 10:31 AMI think it helps not to think of tasks as being an Easy or Medium difficulty task, but rather an Easy Challenge or Medium Challenge, with the...274 replies | 13054 view(s)

Yesterday, 03:19 AMI suppose it does depend on whether you're treating the ship as a whole, or its constituent parts. Does it belong to Theseus, by any chance?...10 replies | 793 view(s)

Yesterday, 12:13 AMGiven that a wooden sailing ship would weigh somewhere in the range of 200,000lb at the low end, even the smallest airships would plink an immovable...10 replies | 793 view(s)

2024-05-01, 11:54 PMI totally agree and the DMG kind of backs you up here. There's really only a handful of DC's given in the book, but barring Purple Worm Poison's Save...274 replies | 13054 view(s)

2024-05-01, 08:44 PMLOL :smalltongue: Your argument of "yeah, but playing as a bunch of lolrandom morons (no judgement) means infiltration is almost impossible" might...530 replies | 20592 view(s)

2024-05-01, 09:48 AMI think there's maybe a bit of player expectation bias at fault here as well. It very much must be considered that so long as it's at all possible...274 replies | 13054 view(s)

2024-05-01, 01:43 AMAh, but the really real question is do you need papers to go with your janitor disguise and is a forgery and a disguise check enough, or do you want...530 replies | 20592 view(s)

2024-04-30, 01:21 AMThis does rather beg the question that if such a practice was so commonly regarded in enough of a bad light that it had such a reputation, why was it...530 replies | 20592 view(s)

2024-04-26, 10:34 AMThere's where we differ. Where you see competition for action resource, I see opportunity. Can the Rogue use Uncanny Dodge and off-turn Sneak Attack...530 replies | 20592 view(s)

2024-04-26, 07:26 AMSooo...would it not benefit the game as a whole to rectify that groundless reputation by reinforcing what the actual rules are and the image they...530 replies | 20592 view(s)

2024-04-26, 02:18 AMYour not knowing this before now is a bit like me coming into a conversation about Fighters and going off about how bad Polearm Master is because the...530 replies | 20592 view(s)

2024-04-25, 06:26 PMSo the Archery style Fighter just wailing away from range is less selfish? The Wizard who never casts buffs or control? The Cleric that spends all...530 replies | 20592 view(s)

2024-04-25, 10:48 AMCan you point me to where the Rogue has any rule that is more selfish than any other class? I've already noted several specific abilities the Rogue...530 replies | 20592 view(s)

2024-04-25, 10:22 AMIs it though? I ask genuinely rather than rhetorically. I mean, going back to my previous point regarding who can or can't hit those high DCs, it...530 replies | 20592 view(s)

2024-04-24, 01:31 PMI think you undersell or don't realise how significant that additional +3 really is. A level 5 Rogue with Expertise and primary focus on the relevant...530 replies | 20592 view(s)

2024-04-24, 11:57 AMI really can't disagree with this more. More than almost any other Class (the one exception that come to mind being the Bard), the Rogue is designed...530 replies | 20592 view(s)

2024-04-24, 09:10 AMThere's a difference between what the game expects and what players are doing and I think you are conflating the two. The game expects Rogues to...530 replies | 20592 view(s)

2024-04-24, 06:47 AMExcept we kind of do. Few Barbarians are mentioned in discussions about the Social Pillar, except with regard to their ineptitude at it. Similarly...530 replies | 20592 view(s)

2024-04-24, 05:40 AMTherein lies the argument, I suppose. In my opinion, the Rogue loses a little in the numbers game (a little less AC, HP, to-hit bonus, etc.) to gain...530 replies | 20592 view(s)

2024-04-24, 03:44 AMHard agree with Witty Username here. And for Skrum and Kurald Galain, here's a build for you to consider; Race: V.Human Class: Rogue Standard...530 replies | 20592 view(s)

2024-04-24, 02:17 AMIt never ceases to amuse me when I see arguments like "Rogues aren't good tanks because they have low Con" or "Rogues aren't as good at grappling as...530 replies | 20592 view(s)

2024-04-19, 12:59 PMFrankly, having a 20 in your main stat at level 10 probably means that you're somewhat a one-dimensional character; no feats (unless Variant Human),...84 replies | 6400 view(s)

2024-04-19, 01:37 AMThis argument feels a little bit like complaining that Wizards aren't great grapplers, or that Paladins or Monks aren't great archers. Yeah, they can...274 replies | 13054 view(s)
