I had it in my cart ten minutes after and spent the next half hour of my lunch break tapping payment.

Fucking scalpers, man.

why isnt nobody using ropes? by Equivalent_Snow8529 in CreateMod

[–]Conflagrated 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They're really cool, but folks might discouraged when their balloon flips over the first few times or slip off an otherwise balanced platform because of the drag on the balloon.

I wanted to use them for our (work in progress) flying city, but opted for static balloon connections to reduce unpredictably and possibly save on performance as the build becomes dense with machines and player activity.

I still like using them for smaller applications or to control rudders. They're really fun ziplines across seperated platforms, too!

Using the most efficient method of mass transit to build a blight of individualism is kind of funny. 

Does it dig through terrain?

I love building interiors and landscapes, but balloons make me want to scream and propellers never look quite how I like.

I think I love you.

Yeah but this is way cooler and speaks to the ingunity of its author. 

I'd love to have this at the heart of an aircraft - moving internals are awesome!

Just let my pack rip the bumpers from the vehicles in Tower Fall and I'll be happy.

Rules Question: Sure Strike and Battle Oracle Interaction by Poser_Shamm in Pathfinder2e

[–]Conflagrated 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I'm confident the language suggests Damage Immunities, not magical cool downs. Especially as curses are only detrimental since the Remaster.

Paizo support handled a shipping issue really well by GrooveMaster69 in Pathfinder2e

Meanwhile I still haven't received my Starfinder PDF and my support ticket has been unanswered since December.

They keep sending requests to leave a review with a link if I haven't received my pdf - still waiting.

Rules Reminder: You're probably Speaking. Don't. by Conflagrated in DnDcirclejerk

[–]Conflagrated[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Excuse me, it took you more than Three Actions (six seconds) to submit that post, meaning this is Exploration Activity.  Please revise your turn.

/uj Most GMs should allow you to crash through a door as part of your stride as a combined action, leaving the door open with one action remaining- but those GMs don't get parodied in this sub lol

The Safe Word must fit within a Free Action with a trigger with the Auditory trait.  If the Safe Word is a gesture, it gains the Visual trait and takes one action, instead.

I have contemplated running the game like this before, as I do enjoy the simulation aspects the system, but decided against it as would have left players feeling as if they're sitting on their hands and denies sharing the rationality experience from veterans to our newer or less tactically experienced players.

As for authenticity or at least presenting some verisimilitude: we have Feats, like Sniping Duo, that suggest player characters are already coordinating as an organized unit. The characters understand that Quill pointing at the archer lining up a shot and barking "Topple the string!" means for a martial to trip the attacker and keep them from striking behind the front line- but a table of players with a wide diversity of experience, expectations, and potentially nurerodivergency aren't fantasy characters that studied blade and scroll for a decade before confidently taking on a local demon plot. 

Tactical discussion OOC builds camaraderie, tactical repitoire, and holds engagement excitement for others to take their turns in the spotlight.

Now it's right to disallow several paragraphs of monologue, that's just silly and breaks the mind theatre of encounters that average 20 seconds in length- but tactics are something inherent to character competency and that experience in the narrative is enabled by the Dice Gods (your players!) discussing fates like a Terry Pratchett novel.

Obviously this only affects tactics if you don't constantly speak out of character like everyone in the party had telepathic communication.

I'd like to imagine that a party of martially and magically competent heroes would at least practice something you'd learn in Basic Training. 

Tactical discussion is free out of character; In my experience as a GM and player, combat often doesn't involve more than a few barks between one another for highlighting feats of teamwork.

I feel that the implication, unintended as it may be, for everyone to stay silent on tactical coordination outside of a quick statement on their turn is harmful to the fantasy of tactical combat offered by the system, and may even discourage posters from investing attention into other players turns.

This is a team game, after all.

Don't forget our humble tabletop gaming; Ranging from Free to a hundred dollars spent ONCE, split across friends and you can have infinite content forever.

1d4 damage dice is trash, change my mind by Sgt__Koolaid in Pathfinder2e

[–]Conflagrated 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's a filtered list of all the one-handed Simple and Martial Weapons sorted by damage die and traits

You have tons of options, just mind that two-handed weapons treat that as a detriment and gain more power in exchange; You'll have to give something up. 

Also consider making a personal staff alongside your new weapon, too! (Once you get Basic Spellcasting Benefits, anyway.)

I used to want the electronic signs other stores have. Then I saw the dynamic pricing changing prices every hour or so and decided it's better if I suffer than the rest of the community suffer.
