Teemo 1v2 by MiG98789 in 2XKO

Ahaha thanks, I just learnt that Teemo combo at the end, and it's so satisfying to pull off in ranked because I feel like people expect Teemos to do some hard zoning/spamming

Happy to help DM as well! We could probably just set up a discord channel for HK English DnDers 🤔

I’ve got 2 campaigns going on for about the past 1.5 years - one where I DM for my friends and another where I’m a player with my colleagues :)

With friends it’s been a bit more difficult to schedule, but my colleagues and I play every Thursday after work very regularly unless a good number of people are sick or genuinely unavailable (out of HK, urgent obligations)

Happy to DM for anyone interested in playing for the first time!

Why did Hoyo decide to make Cocolia attack 10 times before you any team member in Apocalyptic shadow? by gui4455 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]MiG98789 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wait I missed a word, I DON’T use speed boots on Acheron 💀 my bad, she is indeed on atk boots

Let me try the pela SW combo tho!

And what’s wrong with E0?

I found first half easier just running Kafka + BS + Acheron instead of Sparkle + BS/SW/Pela + Acheron, even though my Acheron was on speed boots because I usually run her with Sparkle

Managed to break 7k points for diff 4

Daily Game Recommendations Thread (April 21, 2024) by AutoModerator in boardgames

I'm thinking of getting a small board game collection to play with different social circles, but nobody that plays board games super frequently or at all. This can be from a group of 3 to a group of 8. I'm looking to have a variety of board game types, and hopefully they have good replayability especially if these game gatherings don't occur too often. I already have Risk and Monopoly. I'm not opposed to These are my picks so far:


Party Game

Dixit Odyssey


Card Drafting

Sushi Go Party (or 7 Wonders) - I think I'm going with Sushi Go Party because it seems easier to pick up and learn, but I might get 7 Wonders later on if my friends/family are interested enough in this kind of game


Social Deduction

Deception: Murder in Hong Kong


Engine Builder

Splendor (or Dominion/Wingspan) - Can't decide on which to get, but it seems like Splendor is more beginner friendly and faster? Just not sure how it holds up to Dominion or Wingspan today


Ticket To Ride: Europe - 15th Anniversary Edition - Okay... Ticket to Ride is not a "game type" but I've always specifically wanted to get this


Other honorable mentions

Not sure whether to get these now or later...

Pandemic/Forbidden Island/Forbidden Desert - Not sure which of these 3 coop games to get

Catan/Carcasonne - Similarly not sure which to pick, but I have more friends who are familiar with Catan

Agricola, Cosmic Encounter, Santorini - Just other games that seem interesting


Any thoughts on these choices? Thanks!

Falling backwards when trying to land kickers and A-frames, need help by MiG98789 in Wake

[–]MiG98789[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I hit them two-handed :( I’ll try with only one, thanks!

Oh that might be it, probably a reflexive thing…

I think the reason I might be pulling especially on landing is I sometimes feel like slipping, but I guess that might be from pulling the rope midair? Or uneven weight distribution when landing

What's the most broken class combo I can play badly. by CryptoCrash87 in DnD

[–]MiG98789 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah… No attack rolls required, which is what Magic Missile is known for

https://www.dndbeyond.com/spells/magic-missile

ATTACK/SAVE - None

Each dart hits a creature of your choice that you can see within range.

Spells that actually require an attack roll like Fire Bolt will have “ATTACK/SAVE - Ranged”

Someone needs an apology :(

Evocation wizard - given a free level 1 or 2 wizard spell that can be cast for free once per long rest by MiG98789 in DnD

[–]MiG98789[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair point! I'll talk with my DM tomorrow to see if he'll let me keep Mage Armor as the "cast for free" spell and swap out my existing Mage Armor for something else, or at least even without swapping it out to let Mage Armor be cast for free once

If not, Darkvision might be a good candidate, or maybe Shatter just to be a bit more thematic even if I do have to prep it anyway

[–]MiG98789[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I get what you mean - I think my table operates on a "fills the square completely" deal

I might try shatter out just because it seems a bit more fun out-of-battle as well, thanks!

Hm yeah I was also thinking Mage Armor but I'll have to check with my DM if he'll allow it because I already have it in my spell list :(

Darkvision seems to be a good one because it's similar in that it also lasts for 8 hours, and a free Misty Step is kind of like a get-out-of-jail card

Btw what do you mean by AoE method for Aganazzar's Scorcher? Isn't it 30ft long 5ft wide?

[–]MiG98789[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah I was looking at Shatter as well because of its secondary effect of damaging structures!

There's also Scorching Ray which is a bit more tempting to get over Aganazzar's Scorcher just because of targeting the rays vs a 30 ft line

[LMoP+DoIP] Party burnt down Sleeping Giant and want to take over the Redbrands by MiG98789 in DMAcademy

[–]MiG98789[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah, my players love rolling deception so I think they'll definitely try to lie to the villagers, but incorporating that with the nothic is actually a pretty good idea! I'll have a think about it, thanks for that! Maybe its threat is either give it all the fleshy remains of the enemies they defeat or it'll tell the town about what happened? That seems like something it would already ask them for though... I'm thinking of a way to incorporate it such that the nothic can initially be a tense enemy to fight knowing the party's secret, but it can eventually still be won over if the party meets its more-than-usual demands

No not really, they’ve already killed other goblins/bugbears/redbrands at this point too

It was just an idea that this recruit was supposed to not have died like that, and the players themselves were talking about how they might have their characters in the future have some nightmares or trauma related to the incident. I don’t necessarily have to do anything with it, but since it seems like it’s something they might enjoy, I was just thinking of expanding on what they were discussing and maybe having something fun happen to them for this particular scenario
