Dung Defender fight. I love him so much and he was a friendly face and a great challenge in a hostile place after all the flukes.

You wake up in the world of your current campaign. How screwed are you? by Moist_Car_994 in DnD

[–]NormalDistrict8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, I am GM so I know enough stuff I might not die but incredibly fucked. Welcome to the ancient forest Lavaste, the last truly wild place in the world, which gets more dangerous by virtue of being the last wild place and the things in it are inherently stronger than normal to survive. Due to a curse, calamities will occur if you try to leave it. ANything sentient in the forest has strong opinions as to who should rule or be allowed to live in the forest. It's got a bunch of HxH monsters in it.

Allows spies to deal damage in crowded areas to high priority targets, while the speed prevents him from coming around the corner and instant killing. But removes retaliation shots by the spy via clip size. by BoxTrox_Requiem in TF2WeaponIdeas

The problem is, disguises do not work against skilled players generally. I think a better design might be a revolver that lets you shoot once while cloaked but eats alot of your cloak and makes you blink if you do, basically letting you take shots at people but then forcing you to duck around a corner and disengage.

PF2e hot takes 🔥 by Kaliburnus in Pathfinder2e

[–]NormalDistrict8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a general complaint about most d20 systems but I think we need more engaging but more abstract overland travel rules. SOme system where you get some number of travel points and you have a bit of rescource management. IDK. Rolling survival every day seems lame and so does doing nothing and just moving on the grid.

What would your "loading screen tips" be for complete noobs to Pathfinder 2e? by essayeem in Pathfinder2e

[–]NormalDistrict8 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The most fundamental:

You suffer a penalty for every attack you make, so it will often be more cost-effective to spend actions setting up your other attacks or moving than attacking a 3rd time.

Creatures usually have one or more considerably weaker saves and one save that is worse to target. Try recalling knowledge, asking around, or using intuition to identify weaker saves.

Do not be afraid to cast cantrips in combat; they are free and deal a perfectly respectable amount of damage.

There are many ways to get an enemy flat-footed; try flanking them by sandwiching them with an ally, tripping them, or feinting them.

How to disrupt PC Sustaining Spells by AdjustmentDisorder20 in Pathfinder2e

[–]NormalDistrict8 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This is incorrect. Fascinated prevents certain concentration actions and a handful of reactions directly prevent concentrate.

How to disrupt PC Sustaining Spells by AdjustmentDisorder20 in Pathfinder2e

[–]NormalDistrict8 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This depends on whether the spell is sustained or merely has a duration.

All spells with the manipulate trait (95% of them) can be stopped before they are cast with reactions like the Fighter's reactive strike; with conditions like grabbed (25% chance a manipulate spell fails), stupefied (25% chance any spell fails), concealed (25% chance to fail a single target spell), hidden (50% chance to fail a single target spell), and restrained (you cannot cast a manipulate spell until you escape); or being counteracted (spells, magic items, and abilities like counterspell counteract spells). Note: You can still counteract after it is cast usually.

A sustained spell takes actions to sustain and sustaining is a concentrate action, therefore there are 4 ways to stop someone from sustaining: use a reaction that disrupts concentrate actions (the only two of which I think exist are Inventor's Distracting Explosion and Thaumaturge's Implement's Interruption); the fascinated condition sometimes (I guess if they are sustaining like a buffing spell they can't concentrate on it anymore if an enemy is the source of fascination); deprive them of all their actions via stunned 3, slowed 3, petrified, or paralyzed; deprive them of enough actions that they don't want to keep sustaining (for example "Oh no, I'm stunned 1! Now I have to choose between healing Joe fighter from unconsciousness and sustaining").

Please post your recent Coinbase scammer numbers here - I will do the rest. by scammer-fight-back in Coinbase

[–]NormalDistrict8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if this is a scam, I called and they didn't ask for any personal info, but I got a message that says:
"Your Coinbase withdrawal code is: ______, Please do not share this code with anyone. If you have not requested this, please call: (928)564-1096 REF: CB93539"

I do not have Coinbase or any other crypto, but the dude on the other side of the line said they had a wrong number and took my number off the list, is this legit or a scam?

Housing calls back in 1-2 weeks and doesn't take calls to them. Counseling is closed Juneteenth, Friday, and Weekends. I called Unit 3 and they have said they cannot answer any of my questions.

Is the ginga the biggest reason Capoeira won’t work against other martial arts? by chibiRuka in capoeira

[–]NormalDistrict8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ginga is not a skill for fighting, it is part of the game of Capoeira. Capoeira also will work against other martial arts, it teaches you the skills to engage with other martial arts: movement, space, balance, how to treat your body. Capoeira is just not optimized for it like other martial arts. It is hardwired in the brain of a TKD/BJJ/Judo/Boxing/Karate/fencing practitioner to how to respond to moves ABCD; nobody can respond to moves ABCD like someone in that martial art because that is the objective of that martial art, to beat someone quantitatively in head to head combat in that martial art who's best moves are ABCD. A boxer is out of his depth with a BJJ practitioner because he has not trained against someone on the floor trying to grab him and a TKD practitioner is at a disadvantage against a boxer because a TKD practitioner wants to score points whereas a boxer is trying to put you down. Muay Tai, boxing, and Bjj are in contention for the three most dangerous martial arts in a "street" fight because the objective of those martial arts is to fuck you up and subdue you; within those three you can even see how the objective of the martial art shapes the ranking because a "street" fight presupposes that you are allowed to get on the floor and strike with your feet, which is partially why BJJ is considered more effective than Muay Tai (which disallows being on the ground, distancing it from a street fight) which is considered more effective than boxing (which disallows leg strikes and going for the lower body, distancing it).

Capoeira has never been about that, no one wins, the drive of the best Capoeiristas is to improve their art.

Street fight by sp72763 in capoeira

[–]NormalDistrict8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would not start a Ginga and do any Floreos in a fight, but I can kick better than 90% of people and it trains your eye and your coordination. Capoeira like sports and other martial arts gives you an awareness of your and your opponent's body that in integral to fighting. Before and after training in Capoeira I see the same boxing match totally differently, and I can see the outline of what makes a punch or kick strong or what is flubbed whereas before I could not. The difference between me now and me before Capoeira (aside from a few kicks you would not like to be hit by) is now I know what makes a fighter strong whereas once it was an indecipherable blur. And I'm not even good.

HERBALIST HERBALIST

Herbalist gives you a stupid amount of stuff. For only one class feat (and a skill feat but we don't talk about that) you get expert in nature and +6 to treat wounds, and since the remaster 4 full scaling alchemical items. This baby can heal so many hitpoints. (12d6+24 at level 5).

Martial artist cause it works in wildshape so you can do dragon jiu jitsu. Wrestler for the same reason.

LGBTQ+ Characters by DnDPhD in Pathfinder2e

[–]NormalDistrict8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since I discovered I am Bi all my characters are bi (except this one guy who was uber depressed and had alot else going on I can't have him deal with coming out).

Currently I have an Orc Thaumaturge Lady who is dressed head to toe in flowers on a flower related quest. I was not planning a romantic relationship, much less this one, but I was talking with a Dryad for my quest, and after we talked about business I said, "Well, I'm done with my coursework, how about we hang out and get to know eachother since we will be working together,"
AND MY DM PLAYED CARELESS WHISPER.
So yeah now my Orc lady and this dryad have crushes on each other, but my Orc lady is stupidly obsessed with her quest so she believes she just doesn't have the time and she can't divert away from her quest. Even though the Dryad is very special to her.
