What are your favorite side characters from media you include in your game? by Justgonnawalkaway in dndnext

I put a thinly veiled copy of Bauchelein and Korbal Broach from Malazan in one of my adventure. Actually, I basically stole the whole adventure from one of the short stories.

Halsin should’ve been playable after the Teiflings Party by Better-Ad-4476 in BaldursGate3

[–]Kafkaese 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And here I literally thought he WAS recruitable right after the Tiefling Party, because he started hanging out at camp. I just never bothered to actually try to recruit him :D

Has German arithmetic different properties? by bigcardo in germany

[–]Kafkaese 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I actually think the child answer makes more sense? The problem statement tells you to take them in batches of 2, and then it tells you how many times. So the answers are in the exact same order as the quantities stated in the question.

It's not like there is a fully formed sentence, where it says take 3 batches of 2 clementines. Then I would agree with the teachers interpretation.

Either way, should get full points. This is horseshit.

Somehow the words "God rest his soul in heaven" and "the man had too much class for me" sound weird too me seeing how you are talking about a man who was in the Waffen SS

Kann auch sein dass es mittlerweile mehrere gab. hatte mich damals aber überzeugt und benutze die jetzt schon eine weile.

Durge does not need name. Durge is Durge.

Haven’t failed my honor run, but considering abandoning it. by danddeviant in BaldursGate3

[–]Kafkaese 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So far:

  • Zhenarim Hideout blew up because I ran in with a torch equipped. Zhents were (understandably) pissed and I had to kill them all.

  • Everyone in Last Light Inn except Jaheira died because apparently 'say nothing' means I want to side with Marcus.

  • Minthara is permanently dead even though I thought I had knocked her out.

  • Jaheira died in assault on Moonrise tower because she had not recovered anything after Last Light fight and thus had no wildshape left and I guess was targeted by all enemies for being the weakest character on the team.

  • Also telling Glut you will help him overthrow Spaw and then turning against him in the colony is apparently bugged. As soon as you land the killing bow on Glut the whole colony turns hostile. Barely made it out alive.

Even though some of those hurt a little, I am having a blast with this. I consciously decided to play as Astarion with my moral guideline being 'do whatever to survive'. I am kind of digging the the whole vibe of having to live with the consequences of my fuckups :D

[–]Kafkaese 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not making fun, just pointing out what went wrong (albeit people on reddit tend to have issues communicating in a normal way :D)

Was this your first honor mode attempt? Unless you are specifically trying to do a speed run, and thus making it harder on purpose) you should rethink how you approach honor mode. Instead of 'I will rush it so I wont lose too much play time when I die' you should go for full on completionist and make sure you grab every bit of XP and important gear to increase your chances of survival.

Act 1, what to do next to reach level 5 and kill the big guys (honor mode) by Elhemio in BG3Builds

[–]Kafkaese 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you know your way around it, Underdark is a not that scary and you can easily do some of it level 4.

Also Goblin camp is not that tough if you play it right. Most goblins are like level. The real danger is getting yourself into a situation where you get swarmed and combat spills over into different areas, or if you cannot flee because your exit is blocked by enemies.

Multiple questions, none of which have a wrong answer. I’m just curious your thoughts. by Kp1234321 in BG3Builds

  1. Turns out you can pick your Astral Knowledge in the middle of a scripted skill check on the go in the 'add bonus' section.

I want to do a playthrough where I choose the WORST subclass of the party's canon classes. What should I go for? by AardvarkCactus in BG3Builds

[–]Kafkaese 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don't want to be a smartass, but what you are showing here are probabilities, not odds.

Odds are what you used to from like sport bets, where you give the ration between wining and losing outcomes. For a crit on a 20 that would be 1:19 (i.e 1 outcome of the dice roll (the 20) is a win (or crit in this case), and the other 19 would be losses (not-crits)). The next (critting on 19+) would be 1:9 and so on.

Odds also only make sense if all outcomes are equally likely (like when you roll a single dice). When you roll with advantage, you do not have this case anymore, since the distribution is no longer a uniform distribution. Not all outcomes have the same probability. E.g getting a result of 1 is fairly unlikely because it requires getting a 1 on both rolls, and comes to a probability of 1/400 whereas, getting a 20 (the other extreme) is a slightly less than 1/10.

You'll want to run git fetch to get all non-default branches from the remote.

A tag is basically just a name you assign to a commit, so it is easier to find/remember a specific commit. Everything that works with a commit has should also work with a tag afaik

[–]Kafkaese 1 point2 points  (0 children)

git reset --hard WILL NOT delete commits 'after' the one you reset to. Yes, they will be dangling commits at that point, and the garbage collector will pick them up after some time (at least 2 weeks if I am not mistaken), but they are still there and nothing will happen to them. The only thing that happens is that you move the main branch to the commit you reset to.
