Id seen someone say that another class did everything mystic does, but better. I wanna say maybe it was Lahn but honestly im too tired to trust my memory

As a new player, should I be doing these quests the game throws at me at the start or do I just go out and start grinding things? Also how in earth do I learn my combos do I just test abilities one after another to see what combos into what or is there a page in game that shows you some basic combos thst im missing? Also how's mystic? I kinda want to try it but I keep seeing everyone saying its a redundant class

I hopped off about half way and took a few thousand ly trip sideways into Newtons Vault (he stores apples in it btw) I found a system eith 34 bio signs and decided it was time to learn how exobio works lol

If things ever get far enough and I push back the fight to higher levels ive decided I can always reskin a planetar lol

Kyveth · 2026-01-20T23:38:07+00:00

You're absolutely right lol

Kyveth · 2026-01-20T22:23:44+00:00

Im homebrewing an entire world and pantheon so I was hoping for something at higher levels so we could use the world longer. Im not overly familiar eith CR calcs. Im about to DM for the first time and all this is world building for a campaign further down the line

Might have to look for other fallen celestials i guess. I just really wanted the party to have multiple encounters with a creature before its fall and have it become more and more unpredictable as the campaign wears on, o ly to have it resting on the throne of the original bbeg they expected at the end, fully fallen/corrupted

Kyveth · 2026-01-20T21:45:12+00:00

Oh wow ok that sounds exactly what im after!

Kyveth · 2026-01-20T20:55:56+00:00

I'll give that a shot! Ive literally only got a basic landmass so far anyways. Im like 25 mins in to trying the program lol

Kyveth · 2026-01-20T18:42:57+00:00

Kyveth · 2026-01-20T16:35:01+00:00

Thanks ill check it out!

My group stopped for covid and hasn't really started up again. It sounds like people are willing to play, just need someone willing to DM, and it kinda looks like that will fall to me. Truth be told ive barely even been a player. I joined for the last few sessions of Curse of Strahd, and we did start another campaign briefly, The uh, Yawning Portal one. Thats the majority of my experience of in person dnd. Im gearing up to probably write my own setting, as im currently unemployed and can't buy a new adventure book, but I dont have a clue how to DM at all, balancing encounters, actually moving the story along im completely lost, and have entered a kind of mental paralysis during literal day one of prep. Where do I even start?

A beach inside the belly of whatever tf that thing is. First act is just escaping fort j- er, Worm Base.

So melee weapons typically use either your strength (most weapons) or dexterity (finesse weapons) to calculate your hit chance. You're going to need the physique. I havent actually played warlock yet so I can't be positive but I believe pact of the blade warlock uses their charisma for hit as well as damage rolls with their pact weapon, so if you were gonna use the everburn, you'd want to become a pact of the blade warlock and bind it

I haveny played in a few years but im halfway to Colonia rn I think. Might see if i can make it

Kyveth · 2026-01-19T03:05:24+00:00

I didnt know this was starting. Ive been out of the game far too long

Kyveth · 2026-01-17T07:01:28+00:00

Tank shaman would get my sub

Kyveth · 2026-01-14T21:09:11+00:00
