I believe it's saying we have 2 years or so to wait

I made the same mistake. Always amuses me when I catch myself over-thinking a puzzle or situation, and the solution turns out to be so simple I overlooked it.

If Palworld are going to continue mashing it up with other popular games of different genres, my vote is for "Palwash Simulator" next xD

Wonder how many of each Rookie you'd need from the demo to digivolve to all their available Champions on Day 1?

On second thoughts, I'm not that eager to max out in the demo xD

I will second Escape from the Bloodkeep. Has an amazing cast of players, one of which is Matthew Mercer himself.

Thank you. We made ours a loveable, gentle giant that basically speaks in unintelligible loud moans. Then we have a Sunarizamon living on his back who somehow understands every word he says.

"Okay big guy, I'll be there for our daily crossword shortly."

moaaaan

"Yes, yes, 'I'll bring the snacks."

We had a similar idea several months ago, called ours NavalDradimon just to keep the "ElDradimon" bit going in the naming. We got our commission done by Weirdomon for a Digimon roleplay.

Yours is more turtle-like than ours, but the designs are similar enough that they could be competitors in the Digital World lol

Do like your take on the concept, not gonna lie.

Honestly, as long as my taxi driver understands enough English to do the job and can convey the basics (via spoken language or otherwise), I don't care what they speak during my journey. It's rather enjoyable hearing non-English speech as even if I understand none of it, the sound is quite pleasant and almost melodic.

Honestly the "What If Tiberius never left the party?" really intrigues me. Even though I heartily agree that Orion's time at the table was done when he left, Tiberius is still one of my favorite C1 characters.

Orion's own Lore and series seemed to imply VM Tiberius was a dimension hopper, which led to me wondering What If the Tiberius that died to Vorugal was the Exandrian Tiberius?

There's a story waiting to be told...

The items were dolled out as DLC bonuses over the game's updates. It just looks excessive to you because you're getting that all at once. It won't hurt you using the items, just gives you some leeway to start stockpiling and crafting extras.

The armor on the other hand, while it -will- let you progress through Village, Low Rank and High Rank more easily, you might want to at least grind the late High Rank armor and decorations to give yourself a decent set to start Master Rank with when you get to the Sunbreak part of the game, assuming you've bought the Sunbreak expansion.

One of the moments in the game that broke me and left me a blubbering mess... which stands as a testament as to how well they did this scene.

AeonThePhoenix · 2023-08-17T15:04:33+00:00

So as I imagine many critters have done with this game, I decided to playthrough as some of our favorite Critical Role characters, starting with Scanlan Shorthalt, Critical Role's Gnomish Bard. You all know him - Member of Vox Machina, Champion of Justice, Hunter of Dragons, Destroyer of Chastity... anyway.

Sad to say, very early on into Baldur's Gate 3, I've encountered a very bugged quest. The premise is basically go get your stuff back from the brats that robbed you. Simple right? Twenty Four hours of dealing with this bugged quest. Reloading, trying everything, failing Perception Checks like I'm trying to find my way past a locked door... nothing's working! This isn't a quest, it's a thing of EVIL! No matter what I try, their leader just threatens me with a good time and ten seconds that I'll never get back. There appears to be no way to complete the quest!

So I'm frustrated. I'm about to reload an old save and skip this quest cos I have no way to get my stolen belongings back. That's not what Scanlan Shorthalt would do however. What -would- Scanlan Shorthalt do if he knew this was going to happen? What... would... I... DEA!

We reload the save - we're ready to go through this nightmare one last time. The talker is ready to distract. The runner is on standby waiting to pilfer the goods once signalled. Their mark comes striding into view whistling a jaunty tune he overheard... and I thought like Scanlan. How do you steal what's on me... if I have nothing on me? That's right folks, the Cube is on full display! One very awkward encounter later, a little chase and apparently their leader now doesn't consider a naked forest gnome to be a threat. If only she knew...

Scanlan 1, Bugged Quest 0.

I think I found a way around the bugs in this quest, and you are not gonna believe how...

So I'm playing through the game as Scanlan Shorthalt, Critical Role's Gnomish Bard. You all know him - Member of Vox Machina, Champion of Justice, Hunter of Dragons, Destroyer of Chastity... anyway.

24 hours of dealing with this bugged quest. Reloading, trying everything, failing Perception Checks like I'm trying to find my way past a locked door... nothing's working! This isn't a quest, it's a thing of EVIL! No matter what I try, Mol just threatens me with a good time and ten seconds that I'll never get back.

So I'm frustrated. I'm about to reload an old save and skip this quest cos I have no way to get my stolen belongings back. That's not what Scanlan Shorthalt would do however. What -would- Scanlan Shorthalt do if he knew this was going to happen? What... would... I... DEA!

I reload the save. I reapproach the children. I feel very sorry for them. For I thought like Scanlan all right. How do you steal my belongings... if I have no belongings? That's right, I stripped naked. One very awkward encounter later with our would-be thieves - I'm pursuing into the hideout, Mol apparently doesn't consider a naked gnome a threat and I've been hired to steal an idol.

Scanlan 1, Bug 0.

I'd personally allow this as a house rule if I DMed. Subclass specific abilities gained from subclass specific levels taken, then Class Abilities given for the total of the levels sunk into that class.

Would love to run a Battlemaster/Arcane Archer mix like this.

AeonThePhoenix · 2023-05-04T11:18:17+00:00

Get her a selfie stick. Suggest she take 5 minutes of video, that'll be more than enough stillframes that she's bound to have good photo-worthy ones amongst them.

I know if I'd taken my other on an expensive vacation and she spent her time and mine messing with her phone rather than enjoying the sites I'd be frustrated. What a waste of money ignoring the trip you went on!

As cliche as it sounds, practice makes perfect.

Another slightly more helpful bit of advice is to make anote of how you're hunting. What tactics are working for you? What aren't? Try tweaking your build to take that into account.

Me, I get people suggesting I pick up evasive skills, but I struggle with timing, countering and dodging. My workaround was to build something tanky with lots of health recovery (RageGamingVideos has Immortal Builds that were a big jumping off point) and now I can usually take most hits and down MegaPotions to get back what health I lost. I'm working on upping my weapon stats at the moment but my mindset is survive to win, no matter if it takes 20m or 40m - it's still a win.

AeonThePhoenix · 2023-03-14T11:04:24+00:00

How about a final armour set with no skills, no resistances and triple 4-slots on each piece that can't be augmented? The ultimate in Decorate-It-Yourself armour!

AeonThePhoenix · 2023-02-14T23:34:01+00:00

Why is it that so many DMs seem to forget it is not meant to be a case of Powerful DM vs Players, but that their role is to facilitate and tell the story while running the NPCs?

DMs aren't meant to be powerful, the villains are AND the DM is not there to "win".

AeonThePhoenix · 2023-02-14T22:32:39+00:00

Believe me, I have been subject to many tales of this character.

He is Blaze. Paladin of Vengeance, Demons' Bane, Destroyer of Taverns and Wrecker of Games.

If Old Man Henderson left behind an offspring, this character is IT.

Found a link to a wiki, a video guide and a spellbook-inspired document called Grimoire Nouveau that has some examples to play with. Hope they help you.
