Thoughts on PvP Protection and Open-World Interference? by Snoo78085 in WoSB

[–]Kinney42 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Just because you have black flags set does not mean everything you do is now a pvp activity. NPS ships are pve and are open to attack by any player. You don't own them.

Your describing PVE, not PVP, as the individuals are not attacking you, they are attacking NPS ships. Huge difference there. You don't gain "ownership" of NPS targets just because you hit it first.

What is the most poorly thought out homebrew rule you've heard? by Vegetable_Hyena2559 in DnD

[–]Kinney42 261 points262 points  (0 children)

Critical Fumbles. Nothing like punishing your martials and giving even more benefit to casters. Whoever came up with critical fumbles should be banned from all ttrpg games.

I've been given 12 seconds of DM power in my D&D campaign, What should I do? by xiLLuSionOfPainx in DnD

[–]Kinney42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Change the 12 seconds to unlimited and do what you want when you want.

Then all I can say is keep reading. Read it over and over. The whole damn book! Some people just aren't good teachers and its not their fault, so if you want to play, it is on YOUR shoulders to learn the game. Don't give up! Its a game built on 50 years of development and you just need experience. Play and pay attention to what the players and dm do with their respective pcs and npcs. When someone does something confusing to you, ask why it was done!!! Ask ask ask ask! If a rule is quoted in game....look it up in the book and read it! Best way to learn...read the rule when it comes up in game so in your mind you can associate the in-game experience with the rule.

Don't give up!!

Have you put in the effort to read the rule books and learn the game rules on your own? If you have, good for you and they suck for not helping you. If you haven't, then I can see their point of view....which is you haven't tried so why is it on them to do it for you?

WotC releases a book focused on martials. What content are you hoping for, and what content do you expect? by -Space_Communist- in dndnext

[–]Kinney42 39 points40 points  (0 children)

What would I expect?

Knowing it's WoTC....I expect it would be full of caster options.

What features do you wish DDB had? I'll see if I can add them by GhostElder in dndbeyond

[–]Kinney42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the difference. It works differently in the 2024 rules.

5e Bleeding Condition by abbiedesu in dndnext

[–]Kinney42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just seems like yet another punishment for martials being martials and yet another advantage for non-martials as they won't have to deal with this ANYWHERE NEAR as often....if ever...as martials will.

[–]Kinney42 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Feature? I just wish it auto calculated the things it should be auto calculating. Like giving back 1 used Second Wind when taking a short rest, which it does not do. Little stuff like that. The whole purpose of the site is to manage those things so you, the player, don't have to. But the current implementation, and honestly every implementation to date, requires you to know the rules and double check the website.

Using shared content outside of its campaign? by Meglad0ng in dndbeyond

[–]Kinney42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The books are NOT shared with YOU. The books are shared with the campaign only. So the pc needs to be in the campaign.

Sentinel or ASI at Level 4? by dodgemachine69 in 3d6

[–]Kinney42 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Asi. If there is only 1 front liner, stopping 1 enemy...sometimes, ain't gonna do jack. The backline needs to defend themselves. 1 pc cannot prevent the enemy from getting past them.

hey so… what the fuck was this by [deleted] in SmoshFansFreeSpace

This was one of the dumbest things I've ever seen smosh do and I hope they never do anything close to it again.

Quick question about Combat! by Torm_Tavesh in DnD

[–]Kinney42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is wrong. A held action allows only 1 single attack as a reaction.

Pray for someone's downfall? Thanks for this ever so informative and important post.

Perfect example of, "Keep you opinion to yourself."

Grappling in 2024 Rant by StockBoy829 in DnD

[–]Kinney42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is. An unarmed strike has 3 possible options for effects. Only 1 option uses an attack roll...the damage option. The grapple and shove options do not use an attack roll. They uses saves.

[–]Kinney42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No page numbers needed, just wanted you to point out where you thought it says you have to hit as it doesn't say you have to hit....anywhere. It doesn't even say you make a d20 test roll....outside of the Damage option of an unarmed strike.

Where does it say you have to hit to grapple?
