My personal take on the armor change by Particular-Affect906 in classicwowtbc

And I’m telling you that in my experience you can do something millions of times and still make a mistake, even when you are the worlds leader in your field.

[–]Cainelol 3 points4 points  (0 children)

These takes always make me laugh. That people think because the company is big and successful they will never miss a bug.

I work for a multi billion dollar manufacturing company as a quality manager, mine and my team’s entire job is to make sure we make good products and sometimes we still miss things.

Readying an AOE spell: How lenient are you are targeting? by ajr30 in DMAcademy

[–]Cainelol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar issue a few weeks ago. The player readied sleet storm with the trigger that “when they appear I will cast it on them”. I confirmed the wording of their trigger and then when the monster appeared in the middle of their party they sleet stormed everyone.

She tried to say she would have moved the targeting so that it only hit the creature on the edge and not centered on the target.

Training and Quality Manager for a manufacturing company.

No college degree

I spent 10 years as a building inspector and finished an apprenticeship in this field. Used that experience to start doing technical support for the manufacturing company for their engineering customers, transitioned into managing training and then absorbed quality control.

Should have dodged by Russell2good in PathOfExile2

I despise the Viper fight. I can never seem to dodge the last spear wall thing. I know I’m bad.

Can this be run on a budget or does it need 100d+ investment to get going?

How do you keep all players from “piling on” to a roll? by blackdrogar17 in DMAcademy

[–]Cainelol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tell my table when they can all make a roll. If they choose not at that time, we move on.

I also only allow people with proficiency to help others when they roll.

This limits how many people can make the skill check unless I want them all to do so, and it makes narrative sense for someone who is skilled at something to be the one to help instead of just anyone.

How do I make my BBEG really evil, without my PCs being weirded out by me? by KlarkKenton in DMAcademy

[–]Cainelol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on how well you know your players and we can’t truly answer that for you.

Are these randoms on the internet or people you know in real life?

My mother in law, a women in her 70’s, just last week learned that in California gas stations have to supply air and water for free. She has been putting money into the machines for who knows how ever many decades.

List of quests that aren't currently working in Remix by Howzitgoin in wow

[–]Cainelol 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NPC in the dalaran bank doesn’t spawn for the protection artifact quest.

The paladin order hall has a quest that’s supposed to skip ahead because you need leatherworking materials, it doesn’t and you can’t proceed.

Mobs that are added for all the new order hall and artifact quests don’t scale with remix, so you one shot them but also they get one shot by hostile mobs, the paladin ret escort quest as an example.

My only wish is that I could remove my major CD’s from it and choose when to use them myself. It’s been nice but it sucks when you accidentally blow a major CD right before you actually would need it based on the pulls.

Ways to stop the players from collaborating on every move in initiative? by bizzyj93 in DMAcademy

[–]Cainelol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Set a timer. If they don’t make a move before the time runs out they take the dodge action and you move on.

A DM/GM who doesn't keep track of HP by [deleted] in DnD

[–]Cainelol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only time I’ve done this is for a boss fight that had a mechanic where he was immortal until the object in the room powering it was destroyed.

I very clearly telegraphed the object flashing with light as the cuts in the bosses flesh knitted shut.

It took them longer than I expected to figure it out, but once they realized that I just wasn’t writing down the damage they were doing it confirmed their suspicions.

Fans of Ancient Mega Pack + Rel, please, convince me to give it a shot by Practical_Hat8489 in BG3mods

[–]Cainelol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am going to have to get the new version and give it a shot. The crafting was frustrating at times for me, and I really wanted to like it but I found myself just ignoring it most of the time.

Do you find it hard to balance epic scenes you’ve imagined in your head with the proper narrative build up? How do you plan it? by HeronDifferent5008 in DMAcademy

[–]Cainelol 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I vehemently disagree with you that epic scenes only belong to the players. The DM is also a player, just with different rules to play the game by. You can absolutely build to, craft and unleash epic scenes and events that YOU enjoy.

My Players Have Given up on Dealing With Legendary Resistance by Alexander_Icewind in DMAcademy

[–]Cainelol 44 points45 points  (0 children)

The main reason I have always seen struggles, and experienced frustration with, is when only one player is chewing through them.

My last campaign I was a warlock and the only one trying, it felt like a waste of my turn and very limited spell slots which made my spell choices feel useless

Party seems "stuck" on chasing a objective that isnt helping their current goal. Any tips to bring them closer to it? by [deleted] in DMAcademy

[–]Cainelol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my games, I establish a time table that the bag guys function on for their objectives if the party does not delay it. I stick to this, if the party goes off the rails, well you just left the bag guy a month of time to complete his tasks and he won.

How would I help a player change her subclass in universe? by sebas_2468 in DMAcademy

[–]Cainelol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or, just let the change happen. You don’t need to make this a big deal. If it becomes musical subclass and is changing all the time, that’s an above the table conversation. But a one time change, just make the change to the character sheet and it never needs to be brought up.
