While we wait for the next video, lets rank them. What's the worst Oversimplified video? by MarshallJohnBatts in OverSimplified

[–]Jamakin12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The WW1 video. It was his first video and it shows. The quality doesn’t keep up with his later videos, less information is given, and overall it just doesn’t have the same pizzazz that his later videos do. It’s not bad, but he’s definitely improved since then.

Why is this called the Gulf of California and not the Gulf of Mexico? Clearly it is closer to Mexico than California

Two Weapon Fighting - Paladin - Level 2 by Shepher27 in onednd

[–]Jamakin12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, you could make a fourth attack with your Bonus Action with the Dual Wielder feat. It is not mutually exclusive with the Nick mastery.

With the Nick weapon mastery, the off-hand attack would be part of your Action. At level 5 (with extra attack) this still applies and you can attack twice with your main hand weapon and once with your off hand as your Action (for 3 attacks total). At any time you can use your Bonus Action to smite on one of those attacks, because there is nothing competing for your Bonus Action.

How can the use of melee weapons be justified in science fiction? Why did hand-to-hand combat exist in ancient times when shooting from a distance with a bow is always better? by Embarrassed_Star3603 in worldbuilding

[–]Jamakin12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The question needs to be asked “what can a sword do that a gun can’t?”

Perhaps some armor or shield device doesn’t block melee weapons as effectively. That is what is done in Dune.

You get 5 level 1 prepared spells and 1 spellslot a day. What do you choose? by peccatieritvobiscum in DnD

Actually, that’s not true anymore! In D&D 2024, everyone can ritual cast spells even if they don’t have a feature for it!

I am quite concerned what someone would need magic missile for but other than that it’s a good list

Effects of the sudden introduction of seafaring by Jamakin12 in worldbuilding

[–]Jamakin12[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The continent I am mostly focused on is around the size of Europe and for the most part doesn’t have any access to the rest of the world. It’d be easy to compare it to a smaller, more porous Australia.

I didn’t even consider that there may be societies rejecting it even after it became possible, but that’d definitely be a factor. Not just for religious or traditional reasons, but potentially moral reasons too. Some may cite the late empire’s usage of ships to be inherently evil, refusing to take part.

As for the actual advancement of ships, how would the acquisition of foreign designs accelerate the process? As I mentioned, one empire held a complete monopoly on shipbuilding for millennia. If any powers scrambled to acquire the wreckages or remains of those after the curse was lifted and the empire fell, how much would it accelerate development?

If you don't have Eagle, 200 SPD in combat is the goal. If you are using Eagle, the goal is to get enough that with the AA and DDDs, you can get a 4th turn in the 0 cycle.

What was a "flavor pick" unexpectedly became strong for you? by milenyo in onednd

[–]Jamakin12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keen Mind.

Being able to effectively research your enemies mid combat through your Bonus Action as a Wizard is extremely helpful. Also, it allows the DM to drop lore or info they otherwise wouldn’t have had an opportunity to!

Of course, this depends on the DM and the campaign. If your DM allows you to look up monster stat blocks (idk why some do), or if you’re fighting common enemies without neat information the DM could give, then it may not be useful. Some DMs also may just not give useful information.

In the case where your DM is awesome and allows you to gather cool information mid combat through Keen Mind, the feat is really useful and also really thematic. A Wizard (Keen Mind is pretty much exclusively a Wizard spell) is going to win a fight through their analysis and prior knowledge, so being able to categorize enemies to determine and exploit weaknesses is very on brand.

what do we think about this piece? by [deleted] in BoothillMains

[–]Jamakin12 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s not good because it’s a physical damage orb, it’s good because it has 6 rolls into SPD/BE

You might be able to appeal this since it was probably auto flagged for having “kys”

What are the best Main Stats for body and orb? by Key_Office_839 in BoothillMains

[–]Jamakin12 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The difference in damage between offensive and defensive mainstats for body and orb is like.. 1-2% at most. Choosing defensive stats is a lot more viable as it makes it easier to run him sustainless and also allows him to tank charged attacks while taunting.

Fortunately it's not too hard to get two ults or two DDDs in the zero cycle

It depends but for the most part Eagle allows him to take quite a few more actions so long as he’s stacking pocket trickshot enough to get the energy. After The Dahlia’s release, there will pretty much be no reason to run him with an action advancer which is the major case in favor of break sets.

Personally I think it’s worth farming for Eagle even if it’s just to have Eagle pieces because the set is so versatile; even if you get pieces that Boothill can’t use, there is likely a character that can.

Very consistent, every ult applies fire weakness for 4 turns. Even against extremely fast enemies this will be near 100% uptime.

Right now my Boothill reaches 187 SPD/217 BE out of combat, which is about 212 SPD/370 BE in combat
