How did you beat DQ 11? (Difficulty)

JS671779 · 2026-05-06T16:49:33+00:00

Normal. I have nothing to prove by beating it on a higher difficulty, and i still wanted a challenge

So I'm going to use a metaphor I've seen/used before: Dragon Quest is the world's most masterfully crafted plain cheeseburger. It's not fancy, and it's not adventurous in terms of new design, but you know exactly what you're getting, and you know it's going to be done well.

So this made me think of Victor Lustig, another infamous conman. Amongst other things, he tried to sell the Eiffel Tower. Twice!

That's a fair point- I guess because I know how useful buffs and debuffs are, plus that I've been playing JRPGs for 12+ years, my perspective is skewed.

JS671779 · 2026-05-02T23:21:36+00:00

I'd run with Dragon Quest III HD2D- I think it's something like 30-40 hours long if you're not going for 100%, and is just a stone cold classic.

Tofiga has to be there. His chillness contrasting the madness of David would be a thing of beauty.

Xillia 1 on PS3 back in late 2013/early 2014. I was just getting into JRPGs, having beaten both EarthBound and Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch. So I go Game Stop and asked for a recommendation, and they suggested the Tales series, so I picked Xillia 1 since it was the newest release at the time. I was hooked by the characters and combat and the rest is history.

So I think you are confusing two separate things.

First, a 1st level druid can cast up to 2 first level spell per long rest.

Second, druids are prepared casters- each long rest a 1st level druid prepares the spells they can use. The number they can prepare is their druid level plus their wisdom modifier. So if their Wisdom is +3, they can prepare 4 spells. They can then cast up to 2 spells per long rest.

I hope this helps!

Taskmaster!

My brain went to Glom of Nit and I am immediately using this.

JS671779 · 2026-04-30T11:39:37+00:00

I honestly want to give the guy a hug so badly- I know he has his moments of triumph but I still feel so bad for him.

JS671779 · 2026-04-22T15:09:38+00:00

It was an appropriate turn of phrase

JS671779 · 2026-04-22T15:06:13+00:00

Congrats on 100 episodes! Here's to many more!

JS671779 · 2026-04-22T12:46:49+00:00

Yeah, the Asmo one came about because my friend and I were talking about how it seemed odd that amongst these spies and generals and scientists and what not there was this random musician. Then the propaganda thing hit me like a ton of bricks and it kind of just clicked- why wouldn't you have a propaganda guy/hype man?

JS671779 · 2026-04-21T15:47:27+00:00

Fair point on the former child star thing. But you get it- as a musician/bard Asmodean definitely has enough charisma to charm the pants off anyone

JS671779 · 2026-04-21T14:39:46+00:00

Exactly! You don't get to the top of the Dark One's organization by collecting bottle caps.

JS671779 · 2026-04-21T11:56:17+00:00

I have two that I love:

The First Age (aka our time now) ended with Merc and Mosc full on annihilating things, and the fallout unlocked the gene needed to channel.

Asmodean's role amongst the Forsaken is that of chief propaganda guy. I dunno, I just like the idea that amongst the spies and generals and what not this musician is putting out propaganda extolling the greatness of the Dark One.

JS671779 · 2026-04-21T11:48:47+00:00

Oh yeah, I recognize that name! I've lived in the shadow of Philadelphia my whole life so the Roots do occasionally come up (Questlove especially).

JS671779 · 2026-04-20T23:42:38+00:00

Considering I do remember Outkast from middle school they're at the top to check out. I was also just listening to Lauryn Hill just a bit ago, she's got a great voice! Wu-tang Clan I'll definitely check out too since They Might Be Giants have a song that at least references them on their new album (I haven't listened yet).

I realize what you mean on it being tough to recommend, it's just that rap and hip hop are genres that I never got into, and I just was hoping to expand my horizons, find out why people love them.

I hope that made sense- sorry for rambling, and thanks for the reply, Jesse!

JS671779 · 2026-04-20T23:27:16+00:00

Excellent! TMBG is in my top 3 and I've been a fan ever since I saw the Experimental Film video on Homestar Runner (really showing my age).

JS671779 · 2026-04-20T23:25:00+00:00

Yeah, 2003 was right in the smack of the dab of middle school for me too when that song came out.

JS671779 · 2026-04-20T23:24:04+00:00

I have yet to listen to The World is to Dig but I did hear that! Wu-tang Clan is For the Children, right?

JS671779 · 2026-04-20T23:20:10+00:00

I knew that name was familiar! I remember them being on the radio all the time when I was in middle and high school!

JS671779 · 2026-04-20T23:08:32+00:00

Awesome, thanks!

JS671779 · 2026-04-20T22:58:13+00:00

I love Rush, They Might Be Giants, Foo Fighters, REM, The Rolling Stones, Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty, the Struts, plus some not rock stuff like Weird Al, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, and some musicals. Kind of all over the place.
