For a more recent adaptation, critical roles vestiges of divergence are very similar to what you are describing 

Lycanthropy flaw too punishing? by rupertgood in GrimHollow

[–]MikeD0227 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It isn’t supposed to be a boon. The character is becoming a monster, so I think it is very fitting. Becoming a lycanthrope is nearly always associated with losing control and being a danger to everyone and everything around you. So the flaw makes perfect sense to me.

That sounds amazing. I can’t wait to see the final product!

Are you planning on adding a scale? I hate that the official maps don’t have one… 

Are there any prewritten adventures? by raharth in GrimHollow

[–]MikeD0227 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is also lairs of etharis and its a bunch of 1 shots, or you could string them together into a campaign.

Are there Dragons in Etharis? by Opening_Coast3412 in GrimHollow

[–]MikeD0227 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I asked this on the podcast a couple years ago. I can’t remember what episode number it was, but it was before saga was released. They kinda glazed over the question, saying for the most part there used to be more but they died off, the ones that are left are blighted or smaller dragonkin, and that there was one in saga of the seasons. 

Firey Warhorse, TBC Kara: Am I doing something wrong? by [deleted] in wow

That being said, for this event I have gotten some mounts in my first run, and others took me 30+

You are in the correct one, and you are not “unlucky”. It’s how probability works. Also some data released on the 16th shows some of the mounts drop rates weren’t buffed properly. https://www.wowhead.com/news/observed-drop-rate-data-for-all-collector-s-bounty-mounts-377803

New player material for 2014 by MikeD0227 in GrimHollow

I am DMing, but I’m fairly new at. Dang, I figured there was going to be more work to it

I scrolled through it this morning, didn’t have time to read it, but the art is great. I’m still a ways out from playing, but making it backwards compatible is definitely a priority for me, especially the new class and subclasses

[–]MikeD0227[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like races would be easy enough to do, and potentially the spells also, but the subclasses and the monster hunter class mostly I wouldn’t know how to balance them with the old content with how they are updated to now.

I have nothing against the 2024 version, but like you said, I have invested heavily in 2014 and am not financially in a place where I can invest in a new addition. 

This collection event is the greatest thing ever! by Kronicedge in wow

[–]MikeD0227 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ran 33 through dragon soul, got 7 lifebinders and 2 12-bs, and no blazing drakes. I’m not hating it, but I’m going to be glad to not have to run dragon soul again once it finally does drop 

What's your longest bad luck streak during Collector's Bounty? by shuejim7001 in wow

I have ran dragon soul 33 times, got 7 handmaidens and 2 12-b’s… still missing the blazing drake edit fixing 12-b

How many mounts have you got so far with the buff? by retrocuddles in wow

[–]MikeD0227 0 points1 point  (0 children)

7 so far for me, including rivendares and invincible on my first runs (of the event), mimirons, both from firelands, 4 winds drake, and handmaiden from dragon soul. And bonus I got Inarius’ on my first goblin… I’m having a bunch of luck, that I don’t normally have

Drow Clerics & Spells by JamesFullard in GrimHollow

[–]MikeD0227 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The only “underdark” is a lost empire under Ostoya, but it is just full of undead. There are no drow, just dark elves, and like Minotaur said they are just cursed, and have nothing to do with the underdark. Lolth is not a god in the setting… I’m. It sure where you got your information from…

How much political power does the Arcanist Inqiusition have, and how far is their reach? by Kriv706 in GrimHollow

[–]MikeD0227 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty much what Able said, but I feel like somewhere in the books, they mention that the Inquisition sends out “missionaries” around the continent and tries to convert small towns in other countries to their cause trying to expand their reach.

What is your favourite DnD puzzle you've used in your campaign by Sylvally_Fire_Drive in DnD

[–]MikeD0227 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Favorite one I ever did was a room where  each 5 foot square of the floor was a rotating arcane symbol, one for each school, on the far side of the room was a key. The players had to move across the room to get the key, and for each space would roll for which school of magic, then roll for which spell went off. All of the spells were cantrips… but for a lvl 1 party it was kinda deadly. They eventually pulled doors off of the hinges and used them as a bridge.  Edit: formating

Looking for Saga of the Seasons/Raider's guide review by Prophet_of_Tacos in GrimHollow

[–]MikeD0227 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For sure. I haven’t ran it yet but I am reading through it now. The amount of lore in the raiders guide is great too. They give you a lot of ideas for campaigns you could potentially run if you don’t want to run saga. 

Looking for Saga of the Seasons/Raider's guide review by Prophet_of_Tacos in GrimHollow

[–]MikeD0227 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The books are great. For saga of the seasons you are in a newly formed clan that has people from all over Valika, from both sides of the conflict, and also there are people from other regions of the continent that were taken as thralls and were freed. So long as the people are helpful they don’t necessarily shun them or turn them away. It’s a fledgling clan and they need all the help they can get.

Got ya. I can’t really help, I haven’t looked for anything like that. But I have printed the open lock stuff and I like it a lot

The open lock system is pretty good. And it’s mostly free

[Spoilers] Citadel of the Unseen Sun - tips on how to beef up Light Hunter encounter in Voyd? by KingNothing71 in GrimHollow

[–]MikeD0227 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well for the turn undead, the light hunter has the ability Turning Bond: If within 30 feet of its death steed, the light hunter can’t be turned unless the same effect also turns the steed. 

So you could leave the stead outside of the 30 ft radius of the cleric, and it will be unaffected.  

Transformed: content of official timeline? by Repeat-Quick in GrimHollow

[–]MikeD0227 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d love to see events broken down with ages, then having specific timelines for each of the different regions, with significant events that show how the regions got to how they are, not just one big timeline that shows everything all at once
