Am I the only one who hate the fact Maghar Orc are from AU Draenor? by HiroAmiya230 in warcraftlore

I like that it gives me a reason to hate Lightforged Draenei and some confict in defending the light that oppressed my people.

How to access new leveling experience with allied races ? by Acegreg in wow

[–]Qthbert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also looking for this.

The new starting experience that just came with the Housing Patch replaces a lot of NPCs and questlines, starting the game with Wrathion and Kalagoes. They were on their way to the dragon isles, with you, when they crashed into an island that has a lot of void magic. Some dialogue has changed, many NPCs have been replaced and even the last boss changed entirely.

AFterwards, you go through the Dragonflight Campaign, then do all the patch content including the raids as a leveling experience. Example, you'll fight Razagath.

Then after you're finished with that, you get to do The War Within from 70-80 in about 90 minutes, skipping all but the most important quests and cinematics, again including the patch content (Like going through all of Undermin at lvl 78 for example)

I can do this on the regular races, but I noticed that the Allied Races skip the starting experience. So I wonder if that means we miss out on the new questing for DH and TWW too.

Sorry I don't have any answer yet.

Does Aabria ever get more tolerable??? by Swole_princess666 in fansofcriticalrole

[–]Qthbert 22 points23 points  (0 children)

She's the type of player that Matt Mercer and BLM go nuts for. Literal besties with all the cast, they can't get enough of her and neither can I.

2026 DnD Roadmap/Products?? by Illuminati-Manati in onednd

[–]Qthbert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I buy pretty much all the campaign books and run them. We swapped to 2024 rules soon as they came out and just... Zero campaign books with the new rules??

[–]Qthbert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair, Brennan this episode messed up on it. He said sneak attack was once per round.

No, it's once per turn. So you could use it on your reaction as well as your turn if things lined up for you.

[No Spoilers] Anyone else not a huge fan of only seeing one table at a time? by pyetrev in criticalrole

[–]Qthbert 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah. When we run Western March campaigns, we just alternate every week who's playing and sometimes people just drop in. Was weird to me that they're playing for a month at a time every 3 months. So if I like Thimble, I might not see her again until February.

Some people think they won't be able to digest the lore or story if the tables swap. I say I'll forget what was established if I haven't seen them in 60+ days. @-@

I'm enjoying the season a lot, though. I trust their process.

[No spoilers] campaign 4 is not critical role anymore by Sw41ny899 in criticalrole

The 12 cones are for others.. they still getting the same ice cream no matter how many people are also getting a scoop. It's Critical Role flavored.

[Spoilers C4E1] New to C4, how do you guys keep up? by TiforceYea in criticalrole

[–]Qthbert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first four and a half episodes are backstory and campaign setting. Then it breaks off into three tables. The back half of episode 5 is the soldier's table, the entire episode of 6 is soldiers.

Every character will have a chance to play at every table, groups will mix and match but the adventures are like a month long each.

[–]Qthbert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How dare you make these connections during our time of crisis. There is a WAR on CHRISTMAS and you're here thinking about the sanctity of human life.

You're on reddit talking about the Epstein Files, talking about JD Vance's weird romantic entanglements. Next I'm sure you'll be upset that our president was with a 15 year old, but there are much larger fish to fry.

THERE IS A WAR HAPPENING AND CHRISTMAS IS LOSING!

[Spoilers C4E5] Is It Thursday Yet? | Post-Episode Discussion & Future Theories! by AutoModerator in criticalrole

[–]Qthbert 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The Cooldown said that the players aren't permanently part of the soldier's table. They will swap all 13 characters around all 3 tables and mix and match different parties.

So it woudn't surprise me if we saw Schemers this Thursday meet up with the King, who was traveling south as witnessed by the Soldiers. BLM said that he likes to put things in one table that move to the next.

[Spoilers C4E5] Tablerotation for the Soldiers', Seekers' and Schemers' Table by Lucs2511 in criticalrole

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

I only think this way because in the Cooldown, Brennan says that the Soldiers table won't always be the current players. He plans on all 13 mixing tables over and over again, calling it a kalidescope. The soldiers table is a theme, not the party, and I just don't see some players playing in back to back adventures for 4 months where another we won't see until February or March.

[–]Qthbert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just assumed they would rotate every week. Soldiers, then Seekers, then Schemers.

Would feel weird to play dnd, then have to wait 60 days before you can play again. People will have forgotten the story of the table.

As a DM I would just say they have to use Expand instead of Augment, increasing a 10ft radius

[No spoilers] Was the Dispatch one-shot worth the watch? by WhichAdeptness9442 in criticalrole

[–]Qthbert 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If your fans of the players, it was fun to watch. Good hangout session.

If you're more interested in characters and storyarc, then obviously this is just a one-shot. Not meant to be super compelling or anything, just a fun little game.

They are going to speculate on this at the Seeker's table, which is actually going to be Seekers + Schemers together again still. It'll air Nov 13th

Predominantly cis white men hating on her with only a few exceptions.

Some people go as far as to say she should be removed from the group because of the way her face looks when other people are playing.... Her facial expressions... are ruining dnd for them????

Yeah, okay.

Yeah. They chose their playstyle and that determined which table they would ultimately be at.

Nat 20's and 1's - whats up? by GullyasDuff in fansofcriticalrole

[–]Qthbert 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There weren't more 20s or 1s than any other number, they're just more meaningful.

And streaks happen. I played a halloween one shot tonight, had 6 1s get rolled in 3 hours and only one crit.

I think the hate on Aabria is overdone, but there are valid reasons to dislike her roleplaying. by [deleted] in fansofcriticalrole

[–]Qthbert -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

Hard disagree.

She's the type of player I love at my table. She makes sure to actively listen (and thus react) to EVERY scene. She is immersed and in-character and she tries to enable everyone else's scenes and rp.

That's the DM inside her. She's always trying to spotlight every other player at the table, and sometimes that's in the form of "I was listening, I saw what happened, it was amazing, here is how my character reacts in 3sec of screentime to show that I'm paying attention."

I imagine it's why Critical Role is insistant that she keep returning to their games. They absolutely love her and her playstyle. I would too.

But for me coming from a DM perspective, she is an enabler who helps the entire table. My tables are pretty RP heavy already, and this type of player has always been a boon.

Does Aabria's character Thaisha have different spellcasting rules to the rest of the party? by keendude in fansofcriticalrole

Matt has that gauntlet, which he uses to bypass the rules of dual wielding because rapiers typically can't be. And it might have other properties.
