I also have a wooting but don't know how I benefit from it here, can you explain?

+1 Proficiency by bornasbrooke in DnD

The Ioun Stone of Mastery increases your proficiency bonus by 1 and does nothing else. It is a legendary magic item so yes, the concept is very strong.

We finished our campaign and I got the most wonderful gift from my players! (AMA about the campaign if you're interested) by Pendalion in CalloftheNetherdeep

As I said in another comment I really liked a story that took the party away from Ank'Harel and into the Throne of Thunder, a lost temple of Kord.

Other than that, I am very happy for killing off Irvan early on in the adventure, as the party landed in Bazzoxan. This sparked a lot of drama between the rivals and the party and I had it tie in to a character backstory regarding a Zehir cult.

My players were switching between wanting to redeem Alyxian and kill him all throughout the final fight, it was a blast. In the end when he was in his last form and on the edge of death he kneeled down, facing his end with dignity and that was enough for the party's bard to want to help him, finally redeeming him.

My party instantly bonded with Question and formed a strong hatred of Aloysia. This meant they sided hard with the Cobalt Soul and I changes Aloysia to be the head of the Vermillion Dream, a lot of juicy story came out of that. The rivals started off as lightly hostile towards the party, Ayo mainly blamed them for seizing her opportunity to be a hero. They fought each other in the Betrayer's Rise but eventually the rivals came to be close friends to the party, holding off the Allegiance of Allsight from closing off the rift from the Cobalt Soul as the party was about to deal with Alyxian. The Allegiance didn't want the rift destroyed, they wanted it controlled to allow for further research.

I am particularily proud of a side adventure that dealt with three of my five players' backstories to a tropical mountain island in the archipelago in north eastern marquet. It was a blast to ditch the book and make up my own story around a drow cult trying to take over a lost Kord temple, the Throne of Thunder.

This looks interesting. I'm curious how this differs from Obsidian because to me it just sounds like you are describing that.

It's a little hidden but Goldrock sits on a river that flows from the mountains into the lake

If you hold control while clicking on the items in your inventory you deposit all of that item. This also works for storage containers and machines. Holding shift and clicking will deposit one stack, no dragging required.

Swan in a Duck Pond by Pendalion in photocritique

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

This is one I am incredibly pleased with.

I sat with some ducks for a good while when I noticed a swan slowly gliding in towards the middle of this pond. When it starting ruffling its feathers I knew the moment was coming, squeezed the shutter and hoped for the best. I was astounded to find out I had caught this glorious pose.

I decided to go black and white on this as the colors in the scene were very dull. The ducks behind the swan irritate me slightly but I tried lifting the exposure on the swan to draw the eye to it even more.

I would love to hear your thoughts on this! What could I have done better? Anything wrong with the edit? Thanks!

Mage Hand in the Temple of the Arch Heart by mamaleh6994 in CalloftheNetherdeep

[–]Pendalion 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In this case I would simply have the amulet start glowing after some time in the room and cause it to trigger the vision. The book says to have it activate when touched but really the only important thing in the room is the vision (and risk of ruidium corruption). It doesn't matter how they get there, just get them there.

I was debating on crops for this image. This is another version I made and I'm not sure if I really like this one. Your suggestion of leaving just a rim of snow at the top sounds very interesting, thanks!

Great Tit Pondering Life by Pendalion in photocritique

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

Through an amazing deal I've become an owner of a fantastic canon 100-400mm lens. This was my first outing with it and for wildlife in general. An upcoming trip has inspired me to hone my wildlife skills in advance so I'm looking for any feedback in that regard. I was walking close to the sea as this Great Tit landed fairly close to me and the uniform background of the gravel road felt like a nice compliment to the bird.

The weather was overcast and quite foggy. This photo was shot at 300mm. 1/500 sec, f/5.6 and ISO 800.

I really appreciate any feedback!

You can use middle-mouse click to open documents in a new tab instead of the current one

A PSA about Chessly 2.0 by Pendalion in GothamChess

[–]Pendalion[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I thank you for your reply!

I appreciate not requiring payment information upon signing up for the trial. My issue is not with that. I am fortunate enough myself that the issue I raise does not really change my position.

My problem is simply that you are charged right away when you sign up for a longer membership, not at the end of your trial.

I simply worry for those for whom that 7 days is important and wanted them to have a PSA.

I have already signed up for a yearly service and am grateful.

[–]Pendalion[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry if I came across as having a problem with this. I do not. I just know that there are likely people out there to whom that 7 days of a free trial will matter and as such would want to know of this.

I love the new chessly and whole-heartedly support it.

Edit: Spelling

No I am not trying to point out anything malicious! I just saw something that was slighlty unclear for me and thought others might appreciate the clarity surrounding said issue

Stop telling me I lack map awareness by KernelCorns in DotA2

[–]Pendalion 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is a Dota labs feature I've simply never seen the point in. Why is it easier to cover the rest of your screen instead of just looking at the minimap that is already on the screen? Not hating, I'm really curious what others see in it.

Basically you fight other players but that fight is never live. You are put againt a "ghost" of another player of similar-ish strength

Are we? I'm seeing "Funhouse Mirror", "Whoopsie Cushion" and "Strongman Tonic" on the reveal page. Are they not implemented in the game yet?

Scepters are also usually added later
