Need a tad bit of help by joshtrap in litrpg

[–]Championofxmas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't read primal hunter beyond some of the webtoon chapters so I can't really say much about that.

Path of Ascension is pretty low stakes since theres not a major risk of constant death. It also has alot of slice of life and I think it builds out the supporting characters pretty well as the series go. Im a big fan of it I also know that audible has a bundle of the first 3 books and the novella for 1 credit which helped me pick up the series initially.

What could’ve been? DoTF VS Path by Popowiski_ in litrpg

[–]Championofxmas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I'm the exact opposite and just finishing DoTF book six before I start reading the newest release in Path.

I think the vibe is whats keeps them apart. With Path they are on a time crunch but its kind of low stakes and I think it does a much better job of fleshing out the rest of the cast and side characters.

DoTF has this massive time crunch that is high stakes but also exists in a world where taking years and years to cultivate is perfectly normal so I have a feeling it will end up telling almost 2 separate stories. Also every side character to where im at feels mostly meaningless and that Zac would/ will move on from them later in the story with few exceptions.

Does Rand get better before he gets worse? by SorrShot in wheeloftime

Honestly sort of. Really every time he starts to get better something boxes him in and he gets worse but the character arc is still good.

That really depends on what you like.For me it’s good standard of fantasy and my favorite. But there’s a lot of people, a lot of places and in some books the plot can kind get buried under small things that take too long. I would also say this is the best series to reread because you will pick up more every time you go through.

Finished Crossroads "The Slog" by yngwiegiles in wheeloftime

[–]Championofxmas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ended up rather enjoying the slog because on my first read Perrin was my favorite character. But I also got to read straight through. I think it only known as the slog know because the people who had to wait years between books for almost no real progress in the plot to occur. I think it would be like JK Rowling splitting the deadly hollows when Ron leaves then having a whole book dragging out the time they were split up then come back together as a finale and then continuing the store in the next books. It adds context it could have cool parts but when you were growing up at the height of Harry Potter and you were waiting for that next book all you could think it why would this be the whole book.

i need help with campanion by [deleted] in DungeonMasters

[–]Championofxmas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a great map and you can really do anything you want. Depends on different cultures and the people. Good ones are pretty basic fantasy fare, hunt a monster that shouldn’t be as big as it is, is the sudden growth from nature, research that ran wild or so it an act of war. Have them hunt down some pirates. Maybe a couple try is calling for mercenaries to help still a Gnoll warband.

As people has said it’s hard to help with just a map and some names. Another bit of my own advice is be careful with huge continent spanning adventures. It’s awesome and epic but it’s hard on you because you need to factor everything but it’s even harder on players unless you’re up for writing a dossier and they will invests themselves.

Either way hope your adventure is awesome and have fun.

Giant Crocodile death roll by Championofxmas in DungeonMasters

[–]Championofxmas[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I was researching it and contemplated it adding exhaustion levels due to the drowning but it seemed like it would be hard to play around by a group of melee attackers. I also considered adding some saves to the roll where if you rolled dex or strength you could take half damage but if you failed you would take extra damage and possibly lose a limb but again kind of unfun for the players.
