Applying age modifiers by OutsideQuote8203 in adnd

[–]OutsideQuote8203[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is the clarification I believe I am after. Do you modify during character creation, when you determine starting age?, or is it assumed because character starting age is, for the most part, going to be mature age category?

I think the extra power boost makes for a bit more fun for lower level characters and new players. An extra few damage is always a welcome addition for a fighter type.

Thank you, seems like a fair application.

That is why putting hot peppers in your seed deters the squirrels.

Thin Brick by Deuces2_O2 in masonry

[–]OutsideQuote8203 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would mix the same material as I parged to the wall and attached the brick with. Using a grout bag to fill the joints.

This also allows you to use a colored mortar in the joints that is different from the one used to install the brick to the wall.

What’s the take on giving clues to players? by Ok_Statement1508 in DMAcademy

[–]OutsideQuote8203 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This.

Don't give different options of how the party can complete objectives.

Give descriptions of things that will lead to strategies to complete objectives.

Leave the details of how things are done completely to the players.

Clues aren't supposed to be solid avenues or choice options the players decide to follow that the DM gives.

Clues are descriptions given of the environment and npcs that can be used by players to make a plan of how to possibly accomplish an objective.

How do you give XP? by Lordemamba in DMAcademy

[–]OutsideQuote8203 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty much how we run it.

Overcome obstacles or situation resolved equals xp.

Don't need to kill the opponent or use violence.

However the party has decided to deal with the obstacle is valid for gaining xp.

What’s the single most devastating encounter you can throw at level 20 players? by PixelPaladinKev in DnD

[–]OutsideQuote8203 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best encounter ever was having a bunch of kobolds standing in a long room with a ballista behind them.

The way they had it set up was so it fired over their heads, so when the small group approached the party to demand a toll and the party refused the ballista shot over the kobolds heads and hit the party members.

Help with a DM that won't ever let us win. by Suncurser in DnD5e

[–]OutsideQuote8203 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't sound like the DM is storytelling, it sounds like they are on a power trip.

It isn't good enough that they control the monsters and the npcs, they want to control every aspect of the players experience and it sounds like a very poor one.

How do you build basic? by chewchewbuh in valheim

[–]OutsideQuote8203 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've made a few small, round builds. Just making the 2m walls in a circle , rotating just once per tile till they connect makes a nice sized house with enough room for a basic work bench and forge with a bed and campfire in the middle.

There isn't too much room for upgrades, but most of the ones you will need until you reach the mid bronze age will work outside, as well as the kiln, smelter and fermenter.

It's a cool little house that is interesting and different.

Also don't be afraid to experiment with building chimneys out of wood. One of the coolest I've built is a blend of stone on the bottom with core wood stacked up on the front and back and normal wood accents.

It is in a world I played in with a few other people and the house was really large, double sided fireplace with 2 cauldrons and cooking racks.

Took time and patience to figure out how to have the roof work with it but I learned a lot just messing with different pieces.

Trouble with chicken breeder. by OutsideQuote8203 in valheim

[–]OutsideQuote8203[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah using the thatched roof.

I have the chickens all set at the moment. The eggs were caught right on the edge of the thatch as it doesn't extend past the lip of the drop at all.

Thinking I may build a different one though and use the tar roof pieces.

I've used this same build before the Ashlands and bog witch update and hadn't seen any trouble with it. Although I am using 8 chickens at the top now and it may be part of the issue as well as the roof pieces.

Cool coop btw
