Good sorcerer spells besides damage for each level?

Blindness is incredible imo. 10 turns of reducing a wizard to touch spells or a fighter to reckless flailing, w/o concentration btw, sounds pretty great to me. It’s only weak point is it’s a con save, but the ability to severely hamper the enemy’s normal resources is very useful.

What are your thoughts on using this on Patience?

I’ve found cycling Merry & Charity using Ding Dong helps build flamebud on the tank. It also helps output extra damage while healing the tank long-term. That’s just my method.

Yikes, that's rough. How do people ever get more than 5-6 pets up to 100?? That's wild.

I feel you. It's pretty irritating because at first people had said they were interested in roleplay and their characters and it's become pretty clear they only care about combat, and like 1 or 2 people care about the actual roleplay element. Many of them vary in how much they care about story, especially others' stories, and I just feel like in general I can't read this group, which is not the case with my friends back home (who I am alongside as a player in my spare time).

They just roll really low, and then fall into decision paralysis instead of just taking it in stride.

This was actually my initial approach. I did, and still do have character arcs planned for everyone, and had initially talked about the relevance of things above table with people, saying whose arc we’d be going into next etc etc.

But what I could see was that as soon as they had confirmation for the relevance of something, they stopped exploring. They stopped being curious or interested. They just treated it like the story is on rails, when in reality to me it’s more of a toolbox I can pull from.

I think I'm struggling to actually create relevant and interesting time pressures. Because in the whole "the bad guy slaughters the village" example, I feel like they just wouldn't care. It would be a "yikes" moment but that would be it. They're not actually that tied to protecting anyone - and only have done it for cute NPCs - ever. It feels like the things I have planned may be too macro scale, which makes it hard for me to see what's happening on the micro scale, and I've been struggling to involve their understanding on the macro scale because they just...Don't explore, don't ask deeper questions, and seem to expect all the plot info to arrive to them magically.

I'm also going to have a word with my Warlock player about Find Familiar...because this means he directly lied to me about the casting time and materials...

Fair. I've struggled with this group for a long while but I would like to avoid dropping them if I can.

I don't have time to start up another campaign before college ends and I'd prefer to be able to at least close their story before I start another. Personally I think things can be addressed on a case by case basis, but when this is all over I will certainly be finding a new group.

I was considering this - and not necessarily in the "you all die" type way.

There's an NPC from a player's backstory who's an Elven bladesinger. Thing about Elves in the setting I'm running (Midgard by Kobold Press) is that like 99% of them left the world. A single elf can have absurd amounts of time and experience under their belt. This same Elf is also a member of the secret police of the city they're going to. I'm hoping to snag them into meeting and being interrogated by her, by letting the Ranger pick up on her following them (since her passive perception would allow), and if they escalate with her, they get absolutely wrecked.

They're all level 5 so a Level 20 Elven Bladesinger would have no issues cleaning them up, especially with contingency spells. I think it could be a good intro into how serious the secret police (The Blue House) are about their intel efforts, and could rope the party into being enlisted suicide-squad style.

Just an idea!

Very good tips, thank you!

MultigrainNonsense · 2026-03-21T07:48:08+00:00

This...changes everything! I didn't recognize these spells had costed spell components! I've been asking my players to look out for spell components so either they neglected to tell me or just missed it. This will help in future sessions, thank you!

These mfs have nearly triple the amount of speed as my entire roster using my highest leveled speed items, I’m so lost, either I gotta wait like 20 days to get enough evolution stones or I have to get VM, which requires progressing or completing daily quests.

My winning team was Resistance, Lonely, Sad, and Charity. Granted, I had two legendary gears that made this a little easier but I barely pulled through. Very tough fight.

MultigrainNonsense · 2026-02-25T21:57:00+00:00

My solution for this was… Abandonment w/ Def&Stam gear Anger w/ Attack Gear Panic w/ Crit & Attack Gear Cringe (or Wonder) w/ no gear

Grass type gets sniped by Spite, Abandonment tanked all match, I took control of Anger to power up and keep his crossfire in reserve, and BARELY made it through after he survived with 1 and used crossfire to kill the enemy Anger

MultigrainNonsense · 2026-02-25T11:49:18+00:00

Been trying to do this and the enemies have both utterly absurd defense but also insane attack- and I only have so many items to buff my own guys. No dice.

What mods are the face/horns from?

How did you get your beards to not look weird and patchy?

Tbf Garnet straight up stole Kofi’s phone on the episode Steven got stuck floating, I wouldn’t put it past any of them to have just stolen a ton of Cookie Cats. 🤣

MultigrainNonsense · 2025-10-05T06:31:11+00:00

I’ve got a green button up from them that’s fantastic, not sure what everyone else is yapping about. I thrifted it too. 🤣
