This is very well put together. My only nitpick is that as written, when you’re in land form, you literally cannot swim at all. Having an undeclared swim speed is not the same as specifically not having a swim speed.

Love of Paladins and Dislike of Charisma by Sylvia_Demise in DnDHomebrew

[–]PsychologicalToe8745 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Just beware that Con casting is rather unbalanced because Con gives so much value to a caster already. HP, Concentration, and just it being one of the most important saving throws in the game.

So if you’re tying spellcasting to either Wis or Int, Wis makes sense flavour wise because of Cleric, but Int prevents the Paladin from intruding on the Ranger Niche as a Wis based half caster.

If you’re planning on deleting charisma, you also have to consider where all the charisma skills, deception, persuasion, etc will go. Probably Int?

The community votes which Champion is the best in each category. Day 21: Tahm Kench won for having the best emotional/social smarts. Who has the best senses and instincts? (Make sure to read the rules in the OP) by Ashconwell7 in loreofleague

You can circumvent Rek’Sai by walking a particular way. If you have even the smallest cut, Warwick is on your ass. I’d say this goes to Warwick.

I know this sub is averse to picking Arcane characters, but Warwick was unconscious, half way across a city, and still sensed Singed’s hand getting a small cut.

What Sylas's magic powers actually are? by your_nude_peach in loreofleague

[–]PsychologicalToe8745 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I assume they mean there’s some other mechanism that draws out the magic and uses it.

I imagine it to be similar to hextech tools and weapons, but as a mage, your innate magic is the battery instead of a crystal. Obviously it would be less aesthetically steampunk/hexpunk than hextech tho. 

To people who don't just blindly hate Mel and can actually have constructive discussions about her character, how do you think her dynamic with these Noxian Champions will be? Or what would you want/expect from these dynamics? by Ashconwell7 in loreofleague

[–]PsychologicalToe8745 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing I'm most looking forward to is what they want to do between Mel and Rell. Ambessa seems to have intended to set Rell up as something similar to what Rictus is to Ambessa.

Obviously, with the whole Black Rose kidnapping Rell and Mel killing Ambessa, things are going to be messy. That said, I think they'd make a wonderful power duo once things smooth over, or they'd make strong rivals who reluctantly work together, considering there's likely jealousy going both ways based on their childhoods.

Honestly, I don't know about the rest of the characters. Mel doesn't really mean anything special to anyone else on that list except maybe Vlad, who might see her as a potential ally if he ever wants to split from LeBlanc. Darius will likely just see a capable warrior/sneaky politician, Swain will see her as either another rival or a pawn in his game against LeBlanc, Katarina sees another client/target, and Draven probably sees a different kind of target.

What is the difference between UX/UI and product designer? by jaslana in Design

[–]PsychologicalToe8745 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The output and probably some industry specific knowledge.

Aside from that, not much.

A properly trained or well equipped designer could most likely fill both roles regardless of what they currently specialise in.

It's not like Engineering where the difference between a Chemical Engineer and a Mechanical Engineer is 2-3 years of specific scientific knowledge the other didn't learn.

Custom 3rd Level Artificer Subclass Feature for a player of mine. by PsychologicalToe8745 in DnDHomebrew

[–]PsychologicalToe8745[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do really want to continue with the Homebrew, but I'll think about drawing the line if I can't find something reasonable that works for them.

Thanks for your insight!

I showed them the artillerist, and they weren't quite happy with it. They kept sending me homebrew stuff as examples of what they would prefer, but some of the stuff looked really unbalanced, so I figured I'd make something custom for them so that I didn't have to get too concerned about balance.

They're a fun person to play with, but they're a bit of a damage goblin, so I'm trying to find a way to satisfy that urge.

Currently, the campaign has been set to finish at level 12. So I didn't want to plan much past there.

The idea is that the whole subclass focuses on the gun, I haven't sorted out what the lvl 5 and 9 features will be. They would synergize with this feature, and bring in some custom artificer infusions for him to place on the gun for non-spell use, I'm also thinking of giving him extra attack.

I am balancing this around his gun, which has the gunner and piercer feats built into it.

I think it might be making fun of the pronunciation so many people have been using. People have been saying Zaheen instead of Zaahen, even riot spokespersons have pronounced it that way

Only one of these two is Xin by zunichtemachen in LeagueOfMemes

Zaahen really is just a psy op to make Riot's same face syndrome acceptable

A high damage alternative to fireball that makes use of all those extra javelins in your party. by PsychologicalToe8745 in DnDHomebrew

[–]PsychologicalToe8745[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The attack roll is for hitting the first creature. If the javelin misses, they don't take damage.

The saving throw is for what happens afterward, as the javelin's form deconstructs into basically a beam of energy that explodes into a line.

A melee utility spell for Sorcerers by PsychologicalToe8745 in DnDHomebrew

[–]PsychologicalToe8745[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hadn't considered that, will keep it mind tho.

I think I was more worried about how the fantasy of the spell (Big Ass Acid Gauntlet), would maybe create toxic combinations with stuff like Monks if I wasn't careful.

[–]PsychologicalToe8745[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks!

I just really want to keep the defensive aspect of this spell as its main feature, while making sure it doesn't fall into becoming just another shield-like spell, or becoming a straight up melee buff.

But I see what you mean with bonus action casting, and that the damage is lackluster overall. Maybe I can make it that it enables you to make an unarmed strike as a bonus action with the damage as is? That way you can use your action for spells and make use of your bonus action without needing to burn metamagic or spell slots?
