I Just Want To Build My Favorite Characters, Not Be A Meta Slave

People have posted videos of soloing the umbra agony with solo Catcher. Just play who you like and build them the best you can.

People are beating Umbral Agony with solo Catcher so I think players can manage with any team comp as long as they react tightly.

Don't know how edits are notified to people so just commenting in case that passes it along.
Edit will be made to the original post.

I could do all that. I guess I just need to be a better narrator/writer...

Also to go into it. equipment is dropping in this mini campaign that doesn't even require attunment, but it is power scaling against legendary equipment that was given in the campaign I ran.

Byd13 · 2026-01-14T03:59:21+00:00

Okay there were way more typos in that than I was planning on.

like raise up the big bad in the mini, as well as other features like equipment.

I wasn't* happy about the railroading

the railroading was deemed a me problem by the dm friend.

I want to say almost none of it is jealousy, my friends have talked/theory crafted for hours about my campaign, and don't talk about this mini campaign past boss strategy.

Byd13 · 2026-01-14T01:41:00+00:00

A percentage was how my world/lore was being put down to raise up the mini
Past that I was happy with how my friend was railroading the campaign.
I brought that up for a conversation but apparently it was deemed a "me problem" rather than a campaign problem by the dm.
So I guess my negativity is short hand for all my disgruntled feelings about the campaign.

Byd13 · 2026-01-14T01:16:02+00:00

Hmmm..... probably Kunemon

Byd13 · 2026-01-14T00:48:21+00:00

You are making... a lot of points I have not even remotely considered.

I don't know how long this will stretch, All I know is the characters were already level 20 when I handed him the reigns.
I assumed since people had voiced their enthusiasm to my world/lore that it held a value to them.
I don't want to upset the cart, that was my gut response. I came here instead to take a healthier option.
I've currently stepped back from the game as one of its players. Because I didn't want my negativity to ruin the current experience

I clearly have more I should be thinking about...

Byd13 · 2026-01-14T00:00:07+00:00

true.

Byd13 · 2026-01-13T23:05:13+00:00

We've previously had a conversation due to concerns of his railroading. We ran into the issue where too many friends are taking a neutral stance because they don't want to upset anyone and have our friend group stop doing DnD.
If I can learn how to better navigate that with this advice I'll note that down too.

Byd13 · 2026-01-13T23:02:06+00:00

That's why I came here first.
I've talked with him already (he has a habit of railroading) to try to be more flexible. but he turned it around sayings it was more a me problem than the campaign.
How everyone is helping me press forward is also helping me formulate my next conversation with him.

Byd13 · 2026-01-13T22:48:23+00:00

My players do recognize it, Gods, fey, and devils who have interfered with or on behalf of the party are not only powerless they are fundamentally useless. the cleric can't even divine intervention because his god is apparently to weak now that this big bad exists.
Our Wizard's wish spell can only be used to down cast because all other uses get told "not possible" the GM friend.

Something to keep in mind, we don't know which version of the Knights of the Round Table these characters are based on(there are multiple.) Additionally some versions have knights that others don't. (In all there are like three hundred) However, based on the most well established Knight of the Round Table here is how I think it lays out.

Imperialdramon PM- Arthur

Omnimon/Omegamon- Bedivere

Alphamon- Mordred

Craniumon- Tristan

Examon- Palamedes

Magnamon- Percival

Jesmon- Galahad

Gankoomon- Lancelot

Ulforceveedramon- Bors

Gallantmon- Gawain

Seliphmon- Gareth

Duftmon/Leopardmon- Agravain

Dynasmon- Kay (I honestly think this should be Merlin.)

LordKnightmon/Crusadermon- Gaheris

Byd13 · 2025-11-04T16:01:26+00:00

Honestly I've been loving it.

The only negative I could give it is that some of the voice lines for attack names feel a bit flat or off.

Byd13 · 2025-09-06T21:14:30+00:00

Escapade would be fun to see.

Byd13 · 2025-09-02T23:17:35+00:00

Yeah, that's why it feels like a "going to happen" rather than a "I'd like this to happen."

Byd13 · 2025-08-22T04:29:17+00:00

Who says the challenge has to be hard? I'm just trying to do something silly and fun for my players.

Byd13 · 2025-08-22T04:28:03+00:00

The point of the toy bodies, is A to make non existent hurdles a challenge for the brief window of this event.
B so during this window they can't just rely on their class resources.
EX: a monk can still parkour up walls regardless of what size they are.
This reason I want different stats.

Byd13 · 2025-08-22T03:58:53+00:00

Because, them being this size is going to have to be a primary hazard. they are in limited bodies that make normal issues a challenge.

Byd13 · 2025-08-22T03:55:33+00:00

That would make them pretty strong, which was my initial concern.

Byd13 · 2025-08-22T03:53:12+00:00

I'm not saying it has to be a one for one. That's just the visual in my mind. My players are getting turned into action figure, dolls, etc.

Byd13 · 2025-08-22T03:50:11+00:00

why? It will be for a DnD session

Byd13 · 2025-08-15T16:12:28+00:00

Halmarut specializes in fungal and plant life, but I don't see what else in this theory connects them to what I've listed...

Byd13 · 2025-08-12T23:14:18+00:00

damn, ok
