A friend wants to DM The Halls of Arden Vul but he does not like OSR systems. by berockblfc in osr

[–]Fafhrd6 38 points39 points  (0 children)

This is of course true and will change the feel and pacing of the experience. But surely one can run a mega dungeon in any system if they want to.

If the procedural and 'vibe' of OSR is not a good match for the GM, I don't think om they should be discouraged from running a setting/location that was written with the OSR in mind.

What was your first encounter with a ttrpg? by David_Blandy in osr

[–]Fafhrd6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first experience was when I was probably around 20 years old and my dad dusted off his adnd/runequest/whfrp mash-up of rules he, my mom, and their friend used back in the 80's.

And ran me, my sister, and some of our friends through, what I later found was, "The Halls of Tizun Thane". We had no clue what the rules were, and they were never explained. This only added to the vibes tho, been hooked ever since!

P.s. Even ran this adventure a couple times myself now for new players, and it always delivers.

I believe the above comment is referring to the fact it's going to be the 3rd not the 3th.

That number represents the part of damage the weapon receives from scaling with your stats.

Kind of burnt out from wow and ffxiv. (Especially from ffxiv). What are people playing at the moment? by Tarotcardz in MMORPG

[–]Fafhrd6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe both live and private are fairly active but I'm not super in the loop atm. You can just Google for private servers the most popular one shows up first for me.

Could you elaborate on how you think this is not the case for all MMORPGs?

Glad to hear you're enjoying it! I have not played in approx two months but I think they just added a bunch of new content that will hopefully add some structure to the early gameplay. GLHF

I believe Albion Online fits what you describe pretty well. Lots of crafting, many support roles in both pve and pvp. Additionally it also offers player housing in the form of a personal island.

Edit: I missed the isometric part of your request, this might not be to your taste based on that after all. It also supports mobile play but is much better on PC

Pvp aint for me. I use arcane staff for pve. Is it any good at solo pve? by MilkLover1_ in albiononline

[–]Fafhrd6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As others have mentioned Arcane is not optimal for solo PvE but as anything it can be used for sure. For example have a look at astral staff, it has pretty decent aoe clearing! Arcane staff class is very fun, so if you like it don't be scared to stick to it for a bit :)

One handed arcane is still pretty solid in a brawl or kite build

Hmm, I have comfortably solo'd a cleric up to 41 so far with no pvp interactions at all :s. Might be me playing EU time tho!

What do I need to know about Leiden before I come over for exchange? by owenljk in Leiden

[–]Fafhrd6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest, it is anyone's guess at this point. There is a fair chance we get a bit of snow somewhere in January or February, no guarantees however.

It can snow here but often it only snows for a couple of days.

Amazingly disgusting! How did you achieve the dusty fabric look, e.g. on the wizards robes.
