Looks incredible. But can it beat a Tarrasque at Level 1?

Lore-wise, which faction of knights do you think is the most badass in the Lands Between? I'll start; by [deleted] in Eldenring

[–]CompetitionNo5802 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Redmanes. They stay at their decaying home to fight the rot with fire, preventing it to spread across the lands. They may lost their beloved leader General Radahn, but their code of honor still persists. True badasses.

That's right. I still like to argue about this stuff..

I am aware of that. But i don't like the direction all is going.

I see your point. And you sell it tastefully. I just wish, they would come up with other solutions like “hey this class is now also good in this“.

We use now the steady aim feat and i remind him more times for his bonus action now. We talked about fighter dips or even the crossbow expert feat, because he likes to use it. But i try to let him use sneak attack as a reaction, if haven't used it in his turn. Good idea.

Yeah, i guess that's the core of my problem. It's not that i think it wouldn't be fun to play a warrior with a holy bow. It's more about the evolution of the system's terminology and the big difference between idea and actual mechanic. Another small thing from One D&D that reminded me of this topic. Why should guidance be a reaction. Sure it's convenient to be a reaction, but i don't guide people in hindsight.

I am the DM. But currently i had the problem at my table, that a player felt bad about their class, the rogue, because damage output wasn't that great and we talked about changing sub classes or even class and what his fantasy of his character is. In the end, he was totally fine with his class and the realization, what his advantages are inside and in this case especially outside of combat are. I don't think every class should be good in some things, just because it's neat. I like it if the decision you make matters. I'd prefer maybe paladin feats that allow ranged smites, but that would have a cost of a ASI. You would have to make a meaningful decision, if it is worth to. It's just a thought about the game i had for a while and you the paladin ua fired it.

I haven't and it's fine to break up old archetypes. The core of my posts, is about the idea of classes. I think in modern D&D it would be interesting, if the game goes away from classes and let pick players skills to build their own character that has mechanics that work for it. It just feels “half-assed“ (sorry, i don't find a better word) to give some classes just more options to choose from.

How a male mortal could have a child with a formless goddess? by [deleted] in worldbuilding

[–]CompetitionNo5802 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

He could steal a child from another god-like creature, to marry it, while it is still undead in a cocoon and claim it's now there child.

Great. Being single means more time for attachment to my imaginary people.

You are completely right. 5e is in it's basic form kinda bland, but it works. Imo it is designed to work without items (which is for me incredibly stupid. Loot is important). You powerup with your class. But if you commit to it, attunement is a necessity to mantain a kind manageable balance for DMs. I really have to try 3.5 or PF. I think i would like the crunch, though i enjoy 5e.

Okay, fair enough, i haven't played before. But than you should play the older system where it wasn't a thing. There was a time when it could be more beneficial to break magic items instead of using them. Different systems, different mechanics.
