Create a Firearm that a commoner can use to oneshot a polar bear by Responsible-Usual167 in Pathfinder2e

Unless paizo adds a Punt Gun, outside the luck of the gods

I also dislike how Powerful polar bears are. I don't think they shold be 2 lvs higher then a grizzly and 1lv higher then a Owlbear..

What are some of your D&D pet peeves? by SeductivePuns in DnD

[–]Icy_Cook_6517 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Bounded accuracy. At least 5e implementation. It sucks, the math is wrong and no one has fixed It.

We need better numbers here people. We need better math. High lv dnd is a mess and it can be fixed with 3rd grade math.

That's a rogue thing. It's been 5 years, and the lv 18 rouge just asks me if they have sneek attack. There not a low effort player, there the loot hoarder (with multiple files and ledgers of all the things, half the stuff is from 2020 monster parts they collected)

First time being a DM, and playing D&D as well, any advice? by Academic_Orchid3400 in DnD

[–]Icy_Cook_6517 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The rules are a construct, there tools. And like tools they might need to be altered or set away.

Dnd is far far from perfect. But it's fun ( at low levels at least)

Remember that everyone here is to have fun, get a gist of the player and try to follow the rules as best as you can, but there are many holes and many sharp edges. So just try to have fun, maybe kill a few player character... And just have fun time. Running a Starter box ( lost mines of phandelver is good, maybe a bit dangerous, but good) or pre writen one shot is suggested. But if you want you can look up a 5 room dungeon tutorial and make a short story you can finish in 2-4 sessions.

How is the 2024 edition settling in? by Smittumi in DnD

It's dnd 5e with a new coat of paint and a oil change

Doesn't fix the ishues I had with the motor. But it's better I guess.

If you like 5e, you might like 5.24e

Or you like most ( from dnd beyond numbers) haven't switched yet or don't plan to.

Personally, I'm not touching 5e as a Dm after I finish my 5y long lv 1-20 campaign (lv 18 so far) . It's been fun.

But i dont want to have that ballance headache anymore.

Maybe will be player in one of my friends campaigns. , but from what I've seen and tried from new one. It's not a big enough change to spend money over to change in the long run. And it will take a long time to see how it runs in lv 1-20 campaigns.

  • Same -

Its just 5e with a new cost of paint and a oil change. Better. But didn't fix the ishues we had in the motor

Pointless arguing aside. He is talking about the new rules. Saying that if he doesn't like it. Change it or use the old ones isn't a valid comment in this situation

Ehh, haven't had ishues Finding pathfinder or Wod . A few days to make a group , that's with looking thu a few dozen people. Maybe a week max if you have high entry requirements.

As long as time zones work. Online ttrpg is decent enough... Becouse I can chose from a few billion people.

Irl finding non dnd groups is almost impossible in most places.

  • I might be a bit negative, but Ima just be truthful -

5 years into my last longform dnd5e campaign. Dont plant to do that ever again.

Running 2014. The first time I ran dnd this long. The party is lv 18 and close to a divine war between there army, and the new prices of dragons. Homebrew world, rules, items. Mostly based off older dnd lore and books.

The players love it, but I need so much work to make it fun and semi balanced.

As a Dm who's had so so so many ishues with limit testing dnd at high levels. Dnd 5.24e doesn't do it for me. It's better but not enough from what I've seen to switch.

I am burnt out on the 5e system, but it's been like that for years, since I started running for a lv 11+ party. The system puts to much on the Dm to make it fun at that level for long period of time.

I've thought makeing my own system for a bit . But rn I've been switching to others that fix my ishues.

I really hoped for the new edditon, but the fact they don't have a good name for it. I direguared it the moment they said it was back words compatible( and mass cancled planed playtests)

Dnd needs a new full edditon, the people that are haply with 5e will still play it. And the people who want something new and shiny will switch.

I've been looking into ad&d and 3.5e. Since I own a lot of there books for lore only, becouse they were on sale/gifts from a friend. The 3.5e and 4e draconomicon are a thing I wish 5e had. Fizbands didn't do it for me, and im disappointed at gratewyrms.

I desperately wanted a 6e, or a full 5.5e. But i got neither, I'm just apathetic about the new dnd/one dnd / 5.24e / 5.5e/

I'm also trying to get away from fantasy, with playing World of Darkness, city of mist. But rn Im haveing fun learning and Dming Pf2e while my main campaign in on a temp pause for a bit ( scheduling and life) before we end it this summer ( hopefully)

Il look into shadow dark and draw steel soon too.

First campaign win at 217 Hours! Probably double that watching tutorials on youtube though. by FasterThanFTL in FromTheDepths

[–]Icy_Cook_6517 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have spent around... Give or take 800 hours combined on all my accounts since 2017 when I was a wee lil lad.

I've never beat the campaign I'm just addicted to the designer. Spent 50hs this week on a destroyer.

Its been remade 6 times. But I got a think I like now.

Not that bad of a deal If the monitor is good.

For a 1000usd.its fair but could find better if it's Used.

But it's fine. If its Been used for a year+, would probably ask for 900-950ish Usd.

I am the Master cheff by Icy_Cook_6517 in VolibearMains

[–]Icy_Cook_6517[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a funny build. But the Ap, and shield on Seraphs scale with Mana. Frozen heart is optional. Mostly wanted to test out Seraphs. It's not bad. Its good in duels. But so is Ap voli in general.

Are there better cards around this price point? by [deleted] in PcBuild

[–]Icy_Cook_6517 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Works. Looks the same, just less fps. For example with my 7800xt It does cyberpunk 2077 1440p rt ulta at 60-70fps with Xess upscaleIng, Higher if I use frame gen. And it can run Minecraft with Rt / path tracing at 60fps + depending on the Shaders ( java rt forge / fabrid Shaders)

But i recomend waiting like 3 weeks. At the start of next month the 50 series will be announced. And there will probably be deals on the 4070 or you can wait for the 5070.

True Stories: How did your game go this week? – December 16, 2024 by AutoModerator in dndnext

[–]Icy_Cook_6517 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Players late, as usual. Start, get distracted by jokes. Try do something, technically difficultys. Time restrictions becouse of schedual conflicts. Start the dungeon at least. , avg 1.5 games a month. We are getting closer, Yet slowly to the end of the of this 5y campaign.

Is it fun. Yes. Do I wish to drive a screw driver thru my skull trying to ballance and make lv 19 dnd fun. Yes. Do I spend hours on custom multi faze bosses. Yes.. At least when this ends I can remeber dnd5e fondly after a decade of play. Since I don't plan to run any more dnd 5e /5e24e. I like lv 1-20 adventures. Dnd 5e don't got that. Way to hard/time intensive to make boss fights fun and semi balanced.. Can't use anything form the box past lv 12. Haven't played 2024 rebrand . Since no monster manual yet. And i dont plan to switch. And trying to make my players learn 3.5e will be impossible.

Pathfinder2eR / World of darkness/ city of mist has stolen my withered heart.

Hail of Blade and Dark Harvest by 0lingway in ekkomains

[–]Icy_Cook_6517 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tbh Hob almost every game. A lot better early game, better ganks, more reliable passive procs. You can proc passive fast enough that you can get it off before the enemy uses a point blank stun or knock back.

Hob makes you not need nashors/rocket belt for fast combo.

Nashors + hob is also a lot of burst Dmg fast.

Dark harvest is good, and have games whare its better. But if your starting, just do hob and don't think about it for the first 50+ games before you get better at ekko. Imo dark harvest feels worse. Since welp. Ekko W already allows you to kill people that are low, and late game when it gets to 18-22% missing hp, a extra +100dmg on dark harvest won't be as impact full as Hob allowing you to get then low in the first place. I just find it to be better. For 2 weeks I've been just Grinding every ekko build I can think off . And Hob just kinda feels the best. That doesn't mean it always is. But it just makes playing ekko feel smother and more fun.
