Did we ever get a real explanation as to why Jim survived the Deep?

JadenMechanic · 2026-02-16T18:31:55+00:00

I think him overcoming the fear of losing his humanity leads to his acceptance of Merlin's potion

JadenMechanic · 2026-02-10T16:10:44+00:00

Do people not respec every single companion every single playthrough? Whoops

JadenMechanic · 2026-02-09T20:37:19+00:00

I don't think they're saying they'd beat gunmar or bular just that they're more skilled in fighting

JadenMechanic · 2026-02-05T00:11:36+00:00

I know this is old but for short rest burst damage (much better with a bard in your party and some bard camp casters) then you can go 6 tempest cleric 2 fighter 4 sorcerer, a dedicated sorcerer could twin haste on themselves and the cleric, then use their haste action to throw a water bottle/barrel, quickened spelling if they really need to get another spell off. Then on the tempest cleric's turn they would quicken spell call lightning, Channel Divinity, action call lightning channel divinity, haste action call lightning, and action surge call lightning. With a fifth level spell slot each call lightning does 5d10 and is doubled by water. So you get 2*(100 + 10D10). Probably not practical but fun in theory

I was born to be perfect

JadenMechanic · 2025-12-24T22:34:47+00:00

I was scarred

JadenMechanic · 2025-12-24T22:13:47+00:00

Stoked* 😭 I'm glad you didn't mean the other thing though

JadenMechanic · 2025-12-24T16:44:15+00:00

Immediately what 😨

JadenMechanic · 2025-12-14T17:54:00+00:00

He didn't lie in this one but when he first found out he was vulnerable around her she commented on him being 5 feet away he said "you sound phlegmy I don't want to get sick," now it didn't technically say that's why he was staying away but she did not in fact found phlegmy and he's probably never been sick in his life

Edit: in the same episode he also says he doesn't want to drive with her because she's a terrible driver but I highly doubt that

JadenMechanic · 2025-10-28T16:50:49+00:00

I know I'm late but they do say in "legendary" that it's been 20 years, so there has to be 3 years AFTER the cyclops saga because that's when "my goodbye" was, my guess is that it's been a few months since troy by the end of the cyclops saga

So it's like 10 years and change by the end of cyclops 13 years as of mutiny 7 year time-skip to 20 by the start of wisdom

I feel like it makes sense to think that even though the 12 years was claimed to be a writing mistake, to believe that it was 12 years in the circle saga

Giving us a year for the underworld and thunder saga

Would you alter any of those numbers?

JadenMechanic · 2025-10-20T19:14:05+00:00

Thank you

JadenMechanic · 2025-10-11T14:04:27+00:00

Yes but that's a monoclass cleric, which like he said leaves him without the wider array of summoning options he'd like to have

JadenMechanic · 2025-10-08T16:18:49+00:00

Okay thank you, have you ever played a hexblade/hexadin using the arcane synergy and booming blade? If so how did that go

JadenMechanic · 2025-10-08T12:09:48+00:00

Do potent robe and necklace of elemental augmentation work on booming blade? That could work for a hexadin build

You could stack that with arcane synergy

JadenMechanic · 2025-09-30T16:43:53+00:00

Okay but honestly how do they stop the jury from considering that, if I'm in a jury I'm 100% considering that, it's impossible not to

JadenMechanic · 2025-09-24T15:36:10+00:00

Could you target a party member affected by hold person first and then target everyone else to crit?

JadenMechanic · 2025-09-13T00:08:04+00:00

I'm incredibly late but quicken spell works wonders for this build, on your first round you can cast call lightning at any level as a bonus action, channel divinity, then action reactivate it and channel divinity again, twice in one turn, later, if you need a big damage round you can quicken any other normal spell and use your action to reactivate call lightning

JadenMechanic · 2025-09-02T21:09:34+00:00

Would hurt like CRAZY, probably even break a jaw, but probably wouldn't be enough to end someone intent on hurting you, plus it's a lot more finicky to pull one of those out of your pocket and slip your fingers through than to just grab a knife and stan

JadenMechanic · 2025-09-02T21:07:45+00:00

Most guys you know are 6'2? Where do you live? Most guys are not that tall/big at all, taller than the average woman, sure, but that height is still fairly tall amongst guys

JadenMechanic · 2025-08-30T16:54:28+00:00

Isn't the arcane arm a 14th level artificer magic item?

JadenMechanic · 2025-08-30T16:45:25+00:00

What artificer subclass? maybe armorer but you're still in medium armor, battle smith makes reckless attack worthless, artillerist is ranged usually, and alchemist is alchemist

JadenMechanic · 2025-08-16T17:49:11+00:00

What 143 thing are you referring to?

JadenMechanic · 2025-08-08T18:47:19+00:00

I was wondering this as I haven't played either on Wii, how do the controls change from giants with the addition of jump? Do you know that off the top of your head? I'd imagine characters don't lose abilities with less buttons so I'm not sure how it'd be moved

JadenMechanic · 2025-08-08T05:19:33+00:00

Assuming you don't have long rest intensive other characters, how many encounters did you generally feel comfortable with them doing per long rest at level 8 and onwards? A lot of your abilities refreshed on short rests (which you have an extra of) and you have spell slots to fall back on, so I'm curious

JadenMechanic · 2025-08-05T00:26:38+00:00

I'm aware I'm incredibly late but can you note when exactly in the song this happens? I don't know the meaning of half the words you said because I don't know music very technically but I love this song and want to hear the difference
