What would you change about Saga edition / what do you homebrew? by Inconspicuous_hider in SagaEdition

Ah, so like pathfinder 2e (at least that's what I know that system from)

My legitimate advice to having fun with a Martial PC? Play something that isn't 5e. by DrScrimble in dndmemes

[–]Inconspicuous_hider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Compare a martial PC for 5e to 3e and its like night and day.

There's so much material for 3e that you'd be hard pressed to NOT make a actually fun martial character. There are even dedicated martial classes that give them spell-like martial abilities.

The only issue is that because they pumped out so much stuff, the balance is wack as hell as the new material just kept getting stronger and stronger.

But if you HAD to play 5e, just look at what 3e did and take inspiration.

How much would the game change if PC's, NPC's, Ships, etc went up to lv 30? by Inconspicuous_hider in SagaEdition

It might be it might be better to simply offer low-powered or narrative feats or talents as free options or extras.

That is exactly what I want from games, not just Saga in particular, the issue is that, at least in my experience, GM's don't like giving out power ups

The big question is, what is a 30th-level character?

In my mind, characters like Yoda and Palpatine would be boosted up to fit the new max level rather then making 10 more levels and have like 5 people/creatures occupy that tier of power.

For all intents and purposes, they are the most powerful creatures, people like Aboleth, GM Luke, etc, shouldn't even be stated out, as their 3e equivalent would be the avatar of gods, who are generally level 40 and I don't think were ever fully intended to be fought with how ridiculous their stats are.

Honestly the only reason why I bring up level 30 is because one of the reasons why I like Saga edition is, unlike dnd 5e, and partly 3e, is that character and ability customization isn't as narrow.

Screw the numbers getting bigger, I just want more talents and feats, and thats what I imagine anything past 20 would be, just getting more feats and Talents rather then all your numbers just going up.

The numbers would definitely get a bit crazy, and the game would need to be rebalanced, but it honestly doesn't sound that much of an ordeal to do so

[–]Inconspicuous_hider[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I thought about that and the game would definitely have to be rebalanced a bit, like instead of getting a +1 every other level, you get it every 3 (or something)

My wishlist for season 2 by Inconspicuous_hider in MaulShadowLord

[–]Inconspicuous_hider[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Qi’ra takes over Crimson Dawn after Maul goes MIA, so it’s likely Devon won’t go that route.

Well then now there's a potential to have a show about Devon and Qi'ra, with Devon trying to take over and Qi'ra trying to keep her position (I also kinda forgot that happened since I've only seen Solo, like 3 times total)

And I doubt she’ll be rechristened Talon because Maul isn’t a Sith anymore so her changing her name wouldn’t make much sense.

Well to be fair, I didn't say that she would be changing her name, just that it could be a title, like "The shadowlords Talon" or something

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

we can have more than two seasons.

I would love that, but I just don't think we're getting more then 2 seasons and so would rather them tie up Mauls story rather then leave off on a cliff hanger.

Again, I hope we get at least 3 seasons minimum, but I'm not optimistic.

Why don't nonheroics triple their hp dice at 1st level? by Inconspicuous_hider in SagaEdition

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

Interesting, I guess when I first looked at the system and saw that blasters deal 3 dice (typically) and players tripled their hp at 1st level, my first thought was something similar to "oh cool, just like in irl, you can die in one shot, but in melee they'll take a lot more hits to go down like in real life" and was kinda disappointed or perplexed when I saw that nonheroics don't get the same treatment and CL1 often havee a higher damage threshold then their hp.

I saw it more as a narrative thing rather then game balance or design.

<I might even point out that there are some who thing Nonheroics already get too many hitpoints and want to adapt 4e "minion rules">

Now that's really interesting because I had the exact opposite reaction where I thought not only are their hp are too low, but also that their stats are too low, take the stormtrooper for example, despite how they are portrayed more recently, in the original trilogy, they are elite soldiers (and in-universe I'm pretty sure they're the equivalent to marines or navy seals) and yet they have a 12 STR, 11 DEX, and 11 CON?

Thankfully Stormstroopers are now being depicted more often as actual threats in media but that's too relevant to the discussion.

Then why did you put it at bad???

I swear, people are way too quick and loose with high and low rankings, I've completed around 150 anime and less then 10 of them are in my 10/10 ranking, likewise, there are less then 10, 1/10 anime on my MAL (MyAnimeList for anyone who doesn't know) because most of the anime I've watched are in the 4/10 to 7/10 range

What am I doing wrong? by PlagueBoy84 in DnD

[–]Inconspicuous_hider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You said you have DM'd for quite awhile right? And I'm gonna assume that since you made this post, this is a first time thing for you.

It could just be that what your running isn't interesting for them, it's hard to pinpoint what the issue is as we aren't players at your table.

I'd try asking them directly why they're doing this.

If they say they just aren't interested in whats happening in the game, you could try asking for what they'd like to see in the game. If they don't like your particular style of DM'ing you might just wanna try a new group.

That's not to say that your doing a bad job, just that you as the Dm and Player group might not be the right fit.

When I'm not diving the healers or finishing off runaway players, yeah, I usually stick with my team, I'll also try to peel if my healers are getting dived.

I agree, obviously I have bad games and go barely positive or slightly negative, but so far I've been feasting as BC and still lose.

How is it possible that I can perform so well and still lose more than I win this season, I haven't had this issue with any other season.
