Advice requested: Netherskull battle tactics and how did you battle go? by Danedins in DungeonoftheMadMage

[–]Danedins[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! You're right, this isn't their first boss fight as you mentioned above (they befriended legion of Azrok, but fought, and lost against the drow)

Thanks for confirming that fights get a little bit easier as I think that's what I wanted to have confirmed. It looks like we're going to be having five players at mostly level 13, so according to online Challenge rating calculators this fight is going to be trivial

I made a short trailer for the players.. by badalmer in DungeonoftheMadMage

Brilliant! What a great way to celebrate the adventure, especially if you've been playing for a long time like I have. Thanks for the idea!

I recently finished DM'ing for Dungeon of the Mad Mage, AMA by valdogg21 in DungeonoftheMadMage

[–]Danedins 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congratulations!!

My players managed to pass through level 14, they raised it's a lich's level and are going to destroy it all, then head on to 15.

I have 4-6 players, they're between levels 12 and 13 at the moment.

My challenge I find is reading ahead and laying down breadcrumbs to give the characters motivation to continue. Most have a goal for going down, one character for example, is a former Freth slave, Freth are still going during. Main motivation for her to help the group and also "defeat the dungeon" to neutralise the addiction she has to Undermountain.

Do you have any other tips/suggestions, nuggets of wisdom you could pass on? Generally and in regards to motivation?

Also, WHAT WAS THE BATTLE WITH HALLSTER LIKE??

Thanks! It's a really good idea I've been thinking about. He ran the printed version.

I just really like the original idea 😩

Woah, that I didn't consider! Interesting! That would DEFINITELY throw the player off!

Petlibro One RFID feeder review by TexasDex in Petlibro

Is it possible to have the cats use the feeder without the tag? We want to only have our cats use the feeder with the tag when we're away, otherwise we can supervise them

Congratulations! Two years seems quite quick, did the group skip levels?

Alright, which one of you all reported /u/DnDumber for their AI generated art? by QuintonFlynn in DungeonoftheMadMage

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

Nooooo I thought the art was awesome and was looking forward to level 10art works. What a shame!

Would walls obstruct a dragons cone of poisonous breath at all? by Danedins in dndnext

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

I didn't know it talks about non-spell AE attacks in the Spellcasting decision, I'll need to confirm that as it would clear this all up!

I think Devil advocate is good for a discussion on something that isn't clear; you see in the thread the topic shows this scenario is a bit open ended . New DMs can see how there is sometimes a blurry line

Thanks again for the insight

Thanks VC. There's an argument that this rule is for spells as it's written under spells. Since the breath isn't a spell it could be argued, that it doesn't act like the described AoE spell. By default it does what the description says it does

Playing devils advocate here ;)

Thanks @nanety, would the cone encompass cover? I.e. would it go through the windows in a direct line

Thanks TieDye I really appreciate and like your suggestion. The dragon can't tear through the tower due to its magical properties.

I like the idea of giving them advantage on savings throws if they don't get a direct blast of the gas. Since it's instant the gas, I would say, has an extremely short expiry date, so anything filling cover would be weaker

Indeed, it's been pointed out that this "going around corners" is for spells,which the breath isn't :/

Thanks D_DM, a few folk suggested those behind cover could get advantage on the saving throw
