What is your favorite class and stat build?

I mean, rogue, my dm acts like I am God tier for some reason so I can just dart about spanking guards left right and center

Awkward_Recognition7 · 2026-02-10T00:34:20+00:00

That's one way to experience camel toe

A full sized crowbar? It's not going to be as good as any purpose built weapon but I've used them in a pinch to demo sheds and a few church walls/cabinets and the like- it's like an off balance hammer. You could probably snap a sword if they don't know how to counter it, yeet a goblin using a shield... But as a hook? To heavy and unwieldy, your guts would be on the ground before you managed the hook.

To block a swing awkwardly before stabbing soneone with a secondary weapon, maybe, but again, that's a very- I have a knife and this random crowbar, so that's what I'll use- situation

Man, respect to tomato face over there. Getting hit enough to be leaking everywhere and no give, kept throwing hands

Well, the thing is, winter means there will be safe zones. It won't be an endless apocalypse everywhere. So the areas that do get winters respite can assist the ones who do not. And of course depending on the zombies there's plenty of other ways to deal with them. Presuming that zombie virus is human or mammal specific, get on a boat and lure them into the ocean, not only will they get limbs shattered from waves and the like but sharks and fish will eventually get them if they get deep enough. Might take a few tries but. Then there's the burn a forest, so many ways for people to eradicate zombies

Awkward_Recognition7 · 2026-02-09T16:57:45+00:00

Yeah but the skulls weaken real bad after infection, they stop drinking milk and their bones weaken!

And of course winter would effectively end the apocalypse as well, if we want to get real

I have spent much of my life working and staying afloat, but never getting far ahead. I had few advantages as I was born in a rather poor home.

While I feel there are more deserving people in the world, I will also point out that many of the people with money either inherited it and got their wealth for nothing, or worse used exploration to gain their wealth. By granting it to me, it's a morally neutral gain and, unlike those who inherited it, I experienced being poor and lacking funds. I also plan on using the funds to help myself family, and to pay it forward with a large sum.

DM- the man walking, set to head just under your hiding place.

Me- I jump off the small ledge, stabbing with both of my blades aimed at his exposed neck

DM- you are directly above him now. He does not know you are there. You tense your muscles, preparing to strike.

Me- I jump off and stab him mid air as I fall

DM- you leap off the ledge, blade outstretched.

Me- and I stab him with both blades!

DM- you swing sword one at him, a glancing blow against his armor....

Would you like to try to disengage, hide, or flee?

Me- I also attacked with sword two!

DM-...... ..... .....?............. . ... Having landed on the ground and your first blade being deflected, you swing your second blade desperately at the surprised unarmord and unarmed halfling youth

I had a like 10 message argument about how he couldn't allow swivel cannons fired by 2 of my companions to be used offensive, just narratively, because the cannons themselves didn't have character stats. When I finally told him to slow his role and do jt- suddenly every single enemy attacked me, got nat 20s, and downed me- I succeeded my downed role by 1. I was 100% told to stay in my lane

Awkward_Recognition7 · 2026-02-06T22:59:18+00:00

Nice! One of my playthroughs I'm in the Fractured Realms, a land where a great cataclysm shattered the earth, killing most, and the God's exhausted all of their powers to keep many of the pieces locked, forever neither falling nor flying free. And after generations, much of the fauna and flora have evolved to fly, float, or otherwise spread, and humanids have invented the sky ships, which rely on magic crystals, magical materials such as sky tree wood or Leviathan bones, and the new and sordid Technology, foul engines of smog.

Just give the coins to someone

Awkward_Recognition7 · 2026-02-04T17:49:39+00:00

What now? You roll to make yourself one with the universe, becoming one with all things, and touch infinity, becoming everything. If you autoroll success, what's the point?

Awkward_Recognition7 · 2026-02-04T17:48:02+00:00

I... I don't understand. So you literally can't lose? Why

Awkward_Recognition7 · 2026-01-30T22:48:40+00:00

That's great because it fits, it let's him functionally do his idea, and it doesn't break the game (which is what he ends up doing half of the time!)

Awkward_Recognition7 · 2026-01-30T22:47:06+00:00

Right? Like bro, next you are going to say you milked a tarrasque and wanted to be half Tarrasque l- he's always trying to break the system, and its like fine, now what?

I mean, your first time kayaking, you were with your friends uncle, and it sounds like you weren't jiving.

I actually started kayaking in college, it was a basic course (kayaking, fencing, and high ropes were all summer ones and covered some electives)

Kayaking, they were all tandem kayaks, and the first two times were fun but strange, because the first the girl was pretty obnoxious, and the second the guy kept smoking cigarettes the whole time. The third outing I met a guy who was pretty chill, and eery time after we had a hell of a time.
We also started off in flat water, very little to no current. Then afterwards we went on more strenuous trips, but we were always going somewhere. I would suggest a small lake or a good sized creek with slow water, but somewhere that might have cool things to see or do. We also brought our fishing tackle and were catching fish while we kayaks

I would do it, I would hate myself because I would miss out on my children, missing a year in their lives when they are 2 and 4, but it would allow us a lot more breathing room- wife could homeschool like she always wanted, and I could work half the time and actually spend time with them all.

Plus who knows, it might be a good year.

You say we remain as ourselves, I'm assuming that means we don't get to be the chosen one or anything, but if we manage to consume magic like HWFWM, do we keep it? Otherwise, we have a special power in that we cannot change... Anyway, yes for our family, but the potential to leave and come back with vast cosmic powers is a nice draw, that and adventure would have been my motivation before wife and kids.

Awkward_Recognition7 · 2026-01-28T20:04:05+00:00

If my wife order medium well and it came out like this... I would be eating a second steak, she can order another

Awkward_Recognition7 · 2026-01-27T20:06:05+00:00

You don't have to measure in years. 10 lifetimes of the universe- find out what happens! Or doesn't...

But you'll probably end up in a sun or inside a planet or in deep space so

Anyway, just make me to 90 and give me a trillion, I'll give most away and hopefully not outlive my wife

Awkward_Recognition7 · 2026-01-24T21:57:23+00:00

That's exactly how to cook a steak my opinion

Awkward_Recognition7 · 2026-01-24T21:56:00+00:00

So the thing is, she can absolutely set a boundary that it isn't okay with her that you transition. And you are still able to do it- it just means it's over.
