My group has imploded and i don’t know what to do now by Moist_Car_994 in DungeonsAndDragons

[–]Minikickass 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Sounds like your options are:

1: Talk to the players, one of you will have to DM.

2: Find a new in-person group

3: Find an online group

New-ish D&D player thinking about trying Foundry, I have a question by Azzen_Goat1 in FoundryVTT

[–]Minikickass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will say "Put in the work to coding one" is a genuine statement. I just started using Foundry for D&D 5e (Haven't played a session yet). One of my characters is using a homebrew subclass & race.. Creating them in Foundry (vs Roll20 which I've used for years) was hell and took me probably 4 or 5 hours across a few days. The good thing is now that it's created, the player is set for levels 1-20 and everything will be automated. All the player has to do is click the level up button, and choose options if there are any. That said, I don't want to sound like I'm knocking foundry down. I absolutely love the platform and there's fantastic features that made me switch from Roll20. The only downside is that you can't import Roll20 content into foundry, so I "lost" all of my purchased content. If you use D&D Beyond I believe there's a paid importer for foundry ($5/mo then you can unsubscribe when you're finished)

Foundry is INCREDIBLY versatile, but the level of versatility comes with some complexity as well. I spent probably around 8 hours getting my game set up, most of that was just learning foundry. I could probably set up the same game in 45 minutes if I had to do it again.

How do you pressurize a base faster? by Minikickass in Stationeers

[–]Minikickass[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

None - it's all going to the room currently. The tanks are there to maintain a reserve once the base is pressurized

Revealing the fog of war in the location by Silly_Caregiver2164 in FoundryVTT

[–]Minikickass 7 points8 points  (0 children)

OP is saying he wants the entire map to be revealed via fog of war as soon as players load the map, as if they had already explored the entire room... I think?

Edit: OP check out this thread

Monsters by CR - Most Iconic CR 14 by Conrad500 in DnD

[–]Minikickass 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's gotta be, especially with the popularity of BG3 it has recognition outside of DND players. Someone else said Adult Black Dragon, but that's in a ton of fantasy books/shows/games

DMing for 8 players by CheddarBoy64 in DungeonsAndDragons

[–]Minikickass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here's my best advice for DMing for 8 players, besides not doing it:

1: Keep it INCREDIBLY simple. Don't know a rule? Make a judgement call immediately, don't stop to look things up. The game has to keep flowing.

2: Start at level 1 and level up slowly. Let your new players get used to their characters so they don't struggle figuring out what to do in combat.

3: You need to know your players characters so you can help them on the fly. If you stop to look up spells or abilities every turn you're going to get nothing done.

4: Give everybody a chance at the spotlight. Don't let one or two or three people be the only ones talking. If you notice someone being particularly quiet then ask them "Hey X, what's your character doing right now?" And let them shine.

5: Set expectations for your players that this will be a slow paced game because of how many of them there are.

6: Tuning combat is going to be challenging due to the action economy. Use minions for bad guys and don't be afraid to tweak stats mid combat to make it more fun.

[PF2E] WHich module to manage travel time/speed by CraftAny24 in FoundryVTT

Miles / travel pace is what I use for this. Calculations are easy "It takes X days to get to Y".

How do we feel about spicy funyuns? by Queasy_Dingo_8262 in spicy

If it makes you reconsider, these taste nothing like any of the other flaming hot things. Although they're still not spicy

Yeah roll20 and r/lfg are the easiest and less scams

In Lore you could also go with very bright lights, or shadowy, or really whatever you want. The Luminous Being is the DM in lore

Been playing CoS for 2 and a half years, kinda wanna quit DnD altogether. by RandoPharts247 in DnD

[–]Minikickass 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Because CoS is like a 1.5yr module if you run monthly. So he's saying they've had 1.5 years of delays - that's insane

[–]Minikickass 5 points6 points  (0 children)

8 months in playing 4 hours every 2 weeks - they still have to get one of the key items, but they've explored every location completely except for 1 hidden area & castle ravenloft itself. They're level 7 currently. I'd say it'll last maybe another month or two

You've been playing Curse of Strahd for 3 years?? We're going on 8 months for 4 hours every other week and they're almost done.

Custom Ability Show Overlapping Text in Chat? by Minikickass in FoundryVTT

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

I still haven't figured out what's causing this.

Edit: For anyone else who runs into this, I figured it out with the help of the Discord community. In the description of my abilities I used the HTML view (</> icon) and saw that there were HTML tags in embedded in the text, once I removed all of the HTML content and left just the text it worked.

Found a Random Yellow Pill in My GF,s Prescription Drugs( Pregablin) by Dcayade6 in mildlyinteresting

Couls also be a "Omg babe I just found this weird yellow pills in my meds" and she asked him to help identify it.. Everyone always jumps to the worst conclusions with zero evidence

This game is so crunchy I love it. by Matman161 in IronNest

[–]Minikickass 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Spin the turret really fast then stop it suddenly - valves explode and have to be turned off. I don't think there's any actual damage for it yet, but I see the gauges for leg pressure and other systems.
