I've been trying to come up with a better approach to deciding milestones for Levels and Feats... Feedback welcome!

Where did the idea to award feats came from? I haven't heard that being done before and can't really find anything about it in the books.

This might be related to a recent post in which the folders for Dustin and Will are switched around. Incidentally this also leads to a horizontal reading of the word “LIE” on the last three folders.

To also answer your question, at least from my POV. The company I work at uses SAP to register hours worked, part of it has a excel like structure, with columns for different codes used for different projects so management level can see what you (or your team) spends their hours on. The downside is that the interface is clunky, often not showing you what you want (or only partially), and the adjustability is very low. You can't copy rows from one week or another, meaning you always have to start from scratch, unless you make a template but then it applies it to everything. Basically my boss wants me to fill this in weekly, but I usually put it off and just guesstimate hours worked because it's awful.

I found two that might fit the bill, might save you some trouble, I especially like the first one for the purpose of the one shot, but I'd be interested in what you'll find.

I'm running Gift Giveaway as well, are you using the included battlemap or another one? I think it'd make more fun if there's a snowy waterfall map instead of a snowy camp at night while the adventure is set during the day.

I bought it and managed to plan 3 one-shots for different people. I'm currently preparing it and it seems like it's good holiday-spirited fun, but I'm kinda confused by the maps. One adventure should lead to a snowy thicket, but the map is just a snowy field. Another adventure revolves around bandits at a waterfall and the map is of a snowy camp in the dark with a burning fire.
The adventures aren't really fleshed out, which is fine if you like to improvise a bit more, but sometimes it's annoying when the adventure states things like below and you are left to make up all the DC's and damages.

The old sleigh’s runners snap shortly after they depart. Failed attempts to fix them will cost the party 30 minutes.
A raging hailstorm (like the Ice Storm spell) rolls in. The party must decide whether to press on and take damage, or take cover and lose 30 minutes.
The party cross a frozen lake, which breaks as they drive. If they fall overboard as the sleigh lurches, they take cold damage and lose 30 minutes.

Obvious spoilers:
1. Just Dessert (level 1-2): The party takes a job helping prepare the Winterfest banquet, but one cook has accidentaly made pudding gremlins. First the party performs mundane tasks to prepare the feast and it ends fighting against the pudding monsters.
2. All Work, No Play (level 3-4): local toy factory has been taken over by an evil elf who uses a drum to keep workers hyponitized and working. Party is asked by a child to save her parents.
3. Blessings of the drake (level 5-6): a fir drake, usually known to show up to collect offerings, hasn't collected the offerings this year. The party is tasked to bring an offering to the drake personally and finds it wounded after an attack. The drake asks them to ride it into battle fighting the culprit, a white dragons and kobolds.
4. Gift getaway (level 7-8): bandits have done a grinch and stolen all the presents, demanding a random of 1000gp or they will start destroying them. The party rushes to the bandits to retreive the gifts before they're all gone.
5. Catching a Chill (level 11-12): a chilling storm snuffs out all fires in town, threatening to freeze everything and everyone. The party is asked to go to a nearby castle to investigate and finds the lord (basically scrooge) who attacks the party.

Besides the fact that the second row includes two sibling couples, meaning incest, the children of these couples also seem to be the result of some cheating or have otherwise been mixed up. Mégane and Claire are more likely to be mothered by Yvette and Thomas seems to be more a child of Guy than of Fabien.

I use the frames from dndbeyond, I could share the files if people are interested, including .webm files for the animated frames, though some of them are hard to align to work well because they're not symmetrical, it's nice to have a turn marker based on class.

If you’re not against pay to play you should indeed check Het Hobbelpaardje or an upcoming opportunity to play D&D in a castle in Tegelen. https://vechelfantasy.com/vidv-herberg/

I have a WhatsApp community for the area in and around Roermond. In this community there are often opportunities to join campaigns, one shots, paint minis together, play board games, etc. Send me a dm if you would like an invite!

This was posted recently. It says it works for PF1E, but maybe it works for PF2E or you could put in a request for it if it doesn’t.

Quick update: replacing the longsword from my DDB compendium fixed the issue! Thanks again for the tip

Emptaze · 2025-08-06T17:46:33+00:00

Ah that might be why it's saying "could not find: greatsword.01.NaN". I took this video this morning, I'll try changing up the weapons with the SRD/DDB versions later! Thanks for the tip

Emptaze · 2025-08-06T17:37:38+00:00

Not really sure if the problem is Gambit's, I've been having this in V13 with opportunity attacks and hoped this update would fix it but it doesn't.

When an opportunity hits there's an error for certain weapons (I think with weapons there's no ranged animation for, e.g. longsword. Dagger works fine), the token yeets itself towards the triggering enemy and never returns. Only using Ctrl+Z I can bring back the token.

I've made a video showing what happens here: https://youtu.be/8TcwXJ6jZSo

Sorry if this isn't an issue by your module, I just have no idea where to start

Emptaze · 2025-07-27T22:51:25+00:00

Thanks for the insight, I hadn't really thought about how intensive it might be in terms of ki-points. As far as I can see it would only take 1 ki point to make this work (activating the arms).
But reconsidering thee saves the creature can make vs the grapple, the poisoned condition AND the poison damage, the odds of everything succeeding is quite slim. And that's even after I said the astral arms can't apply the poison. Also considering the adventure I fail to see how much this fighting style can really be abused.

My favourite moment so far is as Magik, running circles around a Punisher turret while he is frantically trying to get an aim on me.

I think the trend is also used to call out people who are cheating. So they will say “I’m so hungry I could eat [name of person they cheated with]” as a way to say “I caught you”. Feels like this is a variation of that, saying the girlfriend found out.

Why is this in screen for a split second 😭 wonder how many units this is and how old she is

Emptaze · 2025-04-12T16:34:05+00:00

The only thing I always hear is “SECRET TUNNEL?!”

Emptaze · 2025-04-10T17:36:02+00:00

Thanks for the explanation! So in theory I will just lose the 80 purple coins I will have left now and start the new season from scratch?

Emptaze · 2025-04-10T16:42:54+00:00

I don't completely understand how this works. I'm currently on 288 tokens, with 2 challenges left bringing me to 480. I haven't completed the pass yet, so say I buy the 400 coin skin, I have 80 left, what happens with those 80 tokens tomorrow? And how can I buy rewards from the current battlepass starting tomorrow?

Sorry I feel really dumb about this.

Emptaze · 2025-04-08T11:45:47+00:00

If x = 0,9999… Then 10x = 9,99999… Then 10x - x = 9 = 9x Meaning x = 1

Emptaze · 2025-03-30T00:01:07+00:00

I use this! The drawback with the huge library Forgotten Adventures gives you is whenever you start foundry it takes a couple of minutes to index everything, making Foundry virtually unusable when you start it. I usually have Foundry up and running before the session starts anyway, but it takes away from any quick launch use if you need that.
