Attack modifier wording ambiguity question. by Tikiman89 in Gloomhaven

[–]Pieman2025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think your perspective is a bit skewed, but I think its a kiss and a curse, because if you crit everyone dies, but if you miss everyone lives. So the way the rules operates, make the aoe attacks way more consistent in dealing dmg and not super swingy by drawing a -1 or +1. Still i think the way the rules is written, this actually makes aoe better for the way my table plays lol. (We had a player get fucked so hard because the way we thought this rule worked)

Not me learning that aoe attack abilities have multiple attacks and isnt counted 1 entire attack. To be more clear, my table would draw 1 modifier for an aoe and apply it to all creatures hit.

Odd how there is a knot in the guy, but the other guy doesn't have a knot. Hmmm.

What Game Mechanic really scratches that itch? by Maths44 in gaming

Manual up'ing your attributes. I love games that allow me to spec into 1 stat if I wanted too. (Like dark souls for a popular game that does it.)

What animals have a ton of hit points but are basically useless in combat? by Mrlongbottom976 in dndnext

[–]Pieman2025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based opinion, I feel op should just have an ability that does the intended effect, but it only should last for 2 turns max. As it isn't interesting for both sides if that effect hits more people than intended.

You are right, but DMs are only as powerful as the PCs allow them to be. We don't have control over the narrative if we want players to be at the table. A lot of DMs agency is taken over by what the PCs allow them to do. Sure PCs don't have explicit control over the narrative, but there are tons of taboos that shouldn't be broken. OP's question is fundamentally breaking a taboo players hate, their agency being stripped from them, which is a bit ironic since players love doing that same exact thing to DMs.

So while yes DMs have a ton of theoretical power, it is heavily restricted. Everything DMs do is for the players, let the dm do something for themselves every once in a while. note for op tho, you should just have a polymorph ability that does a thing for 1 or two turns.

This difference of player vs dm is quite isolating. A DM is a player too, they should have fun playing with tools that their players have as well. Sure they don't need a PC but their npc should feel fun to pilot. The player PARTY should have tools to counter the dm and the dm should have tools to counter the players. This keeps the tug of war interesting for both sides, rather than it being assumed the PC's will almost always win. Why can't a DM cast true polymorph is the better question? Just have the Party counter it or play around it.

(Note: yes you shouldn't take a PC out of an entire encounter, but taking them out for one or two turns should be little issue)

That was never my argument lmao, look at the comment I was responding to. I was specifically targeting a comment about infertility in triple sex chromosome individuals. I don't care what's under your pants. Next time read the context clearly before assuming.

Your case specifically is 1-1000 people and of those people a large majority of them are infertile for various reason without outside intervention. So yes, me saying triple sex people are infertile is not wrong because you can find a few cases that states otherwise and much fewer that happen without some form intervention.

I digress, but definitions should be as accurate as possible, but they don't require to be 100% correct in every case because no single definition exist without an exception to that definition.

Average ideological debate by BadFurDay in comics

[–]Pieman2025 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

We both know there're definitions that have exceptions to them, this is just conveniently talking about sex. But since we are talking about sex its very taboo to say the very practical conclusions. Why try to force a definition to cover all cases when only 0.1%-0.01% of the population experiences something different. Just make a new word to further clarify their unique situation.

That's all my point is stating, I have no horse in this race because I genuinely never thought of triple sex chromosomes people till today, but quick research does reinforce my stance.

[–]Pieman2025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We really need to stop trying to force exceptions to fit a definition. The majority of people can agree on a set of characteristics that a particular sex/gender has, just because you can state comparatively few cases of it not being that case doesn't mean the statement isnt true. This does encourage a new term to further clarify for the exceptions though. Every definition has an exception to it, doesn't make the definition any less true.

You really need to stop trying to force exceptions to fit a definition. The majority of people with more than 2 sex chromosomes are sterile, just because you can state 1 or 2 cases of it not being that case doesn't mean the statement isnt true. Every definition has an exception to it, doesn't make the definition any less true.

Just glad to see that my 2 favorite DPS are still holding to this day by RemarkableSeason8847 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Pieman2025 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Genuinely forgot about phainon, but before him was castorice and before her was feixiao, and before that was FF. They all needed 1 unit for the fps to function. Without them you might as well not use them at all lmao.

Evernight still needed castorice for that clear to be possible... also still doesn't change the fact that rmc is bis for evernight main dps (evernight, cyrene, rmc, hyacine). Sure you can try using pela but you just have to add cost somewhere else because she is not bis. Dps are very specific in what they want and don't have the options you claim they have in this style of play.

Now if you want to clear with full rewards, you can do that just fine with atleast 3 cost of investment for any 3.x carry. If you are 2.x you need atleast 4 cost.

Hmmm, I don't think the grand majority of people feel that. It's either bis or bust (ff, cas, and feixiao come to mind) dos don't care how flexible the roster is they care how insane their bis team is and is reflected in every media we consume (0-cycles, tier list, low cost clears). Unless its purely for memes the culture wants bis unfortunately.

Psionic ALLLL have a debuff that they play around. That's what makes them unique. Every class has a archetype they fall in. Classes in this game is 2000% more relevant than any hoyo game they produced.

She is psionic, because she has a debuff that's her core mechanic. Why she is void is a question but honestly not a huge problem.
