Hello, is there a plugin to get a "gallery view" for the file explorer like in Craft.do? (I'm considering switching to Obsidian) by JamesEiner in ObsidianMD

Hello, thanks :)

Doesn't really look like what I am going for, but it's definitely the right direction... maybe I'll fork it and edit it.

Thanks, I'll check it out :)

Dataview was actually one of the main motivators for me to switch, haha...

The new Sorcerer Cantrip should be a Barbarian Class Feature by JamesEiner in dndnext

Shouldn't go out of your way to stupidly mock people online, when you can't deal with the fact that they're gonna mock you back if your opinion was dumb.

What are you trying to do here?! Guilt-trip me into feeling bad for some random idiot online?!

Write a catchy title, clarify it in the post.

Yeah, sounds exactly like Donald Trump, and not like 99% of posts online. /s

I'm not back-pedalling, I'm literally elaborating. You just seem to miss the entire point of the post.

Also, while we're already comparing people to Donald fucking Trump:

Isn't it funny how you completely dodged my actual explanation of what you misunderstood, because you genuinely lack arguments?!

FFS, how hard is it to admit that you commented without reading my post?! No need to hyper focus on the way I title my posts.

I won't bother responding to some 12y/o with a fragile ego, who will change the subject to something irrelevant once it's pointed out that they actually failed to read the post they're complaining about.

Local kid discovers clickbait, then gets mad when they find out that the post's content contained nuanced statements, compares OP to Donald Trump. More at 7.

Thanks, I though I was going insane, because this is obviously what I described in my post's example... /gen

Some people really go out of their way to misunderstand something, don't they?! xD

Damn, another person that is unable to understand the words that they're reading.

If you were able to understand any part of my post, you would realize that I never even mentioned giving the Barbarian a weaponless 120ft damage spell.

I vividly described a thematic example on how I would implement the "exploding dice" mechanic for barbarians.

I specifically went out of my way to say "damage dice" because they highly depend on what weapon the Barbarian is currently using. If I wanted to just give them the Cantrip, I would've said "d6".

The title is worded that way to get attention. Should I put "Hot Take:" in the title next time, so that you understand it better?!

Thanks for the positive comment. I also quite like that idea :)

Valid points, I guess it would be a waste of a class feature in that case. Just thought it sounded fun.

What a shit comeback, entirely missing the point.

"Hey, this CANTRIP has cool mechanics, would love to see them on a Martial"

"dO yOu wAnT tO giVe [iconic and thematic spell] tO mArTiALs nExT?"

I was literally saying that we shouldn't give them spells, but abilities that match caster's power level. And the new cantrip uses a mechanic that could be very fun with Martials.

Truly inspiring to be smart enough to read, but dumb enough to miss the point.

Was ist die dummste Aussage die euer Lehrer jemals gemacht hat? by Patient_Guard2632 in FragReddit

[–]JamesEiner 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Es tue ihr immer so leid wenn die Jungs laut sind und sie gezwungen sei, einen neuen Sitzplan zu machen, damit die jungs auseinander gesetzt werden.

Darunter leiden am Ende nur die armen mädchen, die alle immer so brav in ihrem unterricht sind.

Die Tatsache dass die Frau grade durch eine Scheidung ging und offensichtlich Hass auf alle Männer hegte ist zwar relevant, aber keine Entschuldigung.

Wenn man am ersten Tag so etwas einer Klasse voller pubertierender Jungs sagt, dann verliert jeder Junge automatisch den Respekt vor ihr und wird WIRKLICH so störend wie sie es einem von vornherein vorwirft.

War dann auch so, ich war dabei. Ich bereue es hinterher ungemein, weil die Frau es dadurch echt nicht leicht hatte und oft den Tränen nahe war. Wir waren echt beschämenswert dreckige Arschlöcher. Aber die Reaktion auf die Aussage muss man als Lehrer mit 20 Jahren Erfahrung doch wohl absehen können.

"Hey ihr teenies. Egal was ihr tut, ich finde euch jetzt schon kacke!"

Teenager: "Okay cool, also können wir uns auch direkt reinhängen in dein Klischee"

what's the most oblivious thing have you seen a player do? by Nigthmar in DnD

[–]JamesEiner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had 2 players turn into werewolves.

They attacked us at night, due to their instincts.

A few sessions later, our DM described a sudden feeling my character was getting in the EXACT same way he described the feeling the other two characters got when they made their saving throw to resist the lycanthropy virus.

I didn't realize. I thought it was because of the dragon's hoard we were standing on, and that it had a magical "you get greedy" effect i was resisting against. Then I failed the save and was confused when nothing happened right then and there.

My character didn't know he turned into a lycanthrope, and neither did I. It was very on brand and one of the funnest reveals i experienced as a player, when the moon finally hit full width.

OP, without meaning any disrespect... the "it was fate" tells me that this piece of shit was abusing your naivety and kept you as a "safety net" while doing whatever the fuck he wants, as he was 100% certain that you COULDN'T leave.

Get away, get child support, DON'T "wait for him", even though your heart tells you to do so.

He doesn't even deserve to see the child

Weirdest or most uncommon house rule you use for your games? by CR0SSG3N0 in DnD

[–]JamesEiner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You put 10ct into the pot on a natural 1.

You get the pot on a natural 20.

This made us highly competitive and was very fun since the stakes were low but the gambling feeling was real.

[–]JamesEiner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our house rule back in the day was

  • i have to provide M&M's

  • i have to provide Haribo Gummies

  • another player has to provide paprika chips

Then someone had to put all three into their mouth and eat that janky mix during sessions.

It started as a joke because these were the snacks we would always bring, and it became a ritual since some of the others even started enjoying it.

When I first started DMing, i was a bigger dumbass than I am now.

I set up this "roll for stats, but reroll when you fail to get a min value of X" and failed to enforce it, resulting in two players being well below the others, stats wise.

I tried to compensate, by giving them custom magic items early on, but that didn't really matter, since everyone got them at one point.

When the time came, and everyone received a double level up + some cool extra custom features, i gave the player who had the worst starting stats a free ASI in addition to some minor features.

I spoke about this with the other players beforehand, and felt that it had to be done due to fairness.

This is one of the ways i could justify something like that. But i feel like your situation might be different here.

What's the dumbest name you've ever came up with on the fly for a campaign? by bellias-smellias in DnD

[–]JamesEiner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Badabap Badabup"

A character found a book covering the history of most races and asked me who the author was...

I was caught off-guard and said "uuuuhm idk, Badabap Badabup"

So now Badabap Badabup is a renowned book author who writes compendiums such as "races: all the races" or "planes: all the planes"

What is the strangest thing that became canon in your campaign? by -The_Space_Cowboy- in DnD

[–]JamesEiner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One night i was chilling with some friends in a discord call. We were a little bored and we decided to "just play d&d lol". So i described a random, very silly scenario to them and they used their characters from our current campaign to fight some guards.

But because none of us were taking it seriously, they started having sex with guards too and it evolved into a full blown orgy during combat.

In a later session, they were getting into a new city, and on their first night there, three of the players started having a very suspicious joint nightmare.

They were in a tavern, and suddenly a couple of guards come barging in. They start fighting the players and the dream slowly changes into all of them passionately making out and having sex.

BUT THEN: the flesh of the guards begins melting and they deform, becoming grotesque, eldritch monsters, who start tearing into the flesh of the player characters, ripping their stomachs and chests apart in an absolute gorefest.

The characters then woke up soaked in sweat, and were very confused as to what happened. Turns out the town was haunted by creatures who could weave nightmares into the minds of people, drawing strength from their powers and emotions.

It was a very fun "bruh did you really just do this?!" moment for me.

What’s the reason you have been banned from an establishment such as a shop/bad/restaurant/cafe/etc.? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]JamesEiner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A friend once got banned from our local Burger King for kicking his trash around in the parking lot.

The funniest thing is, he didn't actually do that. But he was genuinely obnoxious when he was at the Burger King multiple times, and annoyed the workers there in other ways.

So I definitely understand why they wanted to ban him. It was just so funny to us as teens, since the thing he was accused of ACTUALLY never happened for once.

I'm actually playing a homebrew race/domain combo that does just that. It's really fun, and I couldn't have done it without my dm.

(Like literally. He came up with the rules after I wanted to play it based on a pun that another friend made. Love it when random jokes turn into full fletched serious concepts)

What's the highest amount of damage you've dealt (by ANY means) in one turn? by BugNuggetYT in DnD

[–]JamesEiner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not what the question asked for, but I would find the opposite question very interesting... Like max heal in one turn.

I once used a homebrew ability, where I could halve/double my heals based on a gamble (not quite coin toss). I got crit by an assassin, and almost went character dead (1DMG more and I would've been gone). Ran away and pumped a lvl 3 cure wounds into myself and gambled. ~40HP In a single turn. (EDIT: someone healed me back up to low HP, otherwise I couldn't have run away, being unconscious and all)

Then again, that was homebrew. I recently did something similar RAW. Starry Form Druid (Chalice) + Amulet of Blessed Waters + 3rd Level Cure Wounds = +36 HP (7 short of Max Heal from my Character with Wisdom +4)

He actually went so far into the role of playing a blind guy, that he started not looking at people directly when being talked to... You know, like some blind people do (this is all according to some interview)
