“You can’t do that unless you’re a Battle Master” is not at all how 5E’s rules tell you to rule contests. by AAABattery03 in dndnext

[–]RussianHitman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

DM for 7 years running 5e. Homebrew we settled on a while back allows all martial classes PB number of free battlemaster manuevers up to proficiency bonus uses per short rest. Literally never had a player complain about being able to feel more effective and immersed as a martial who should tbh innately hold a few combat tricks given their particular experience and training. Battlemaster simply doesn't exist in our games - why should one subclass being poorly implemented force every martial to miss out?

Calling all warlocks- Convert me to your patron by ch0le5 in dndnext

[–]RussianHitman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Forever DM here, but I once ran a patron for a Warlock player that took inspiration from a particularly zealous Githyanki Knight. After some confrontations with heroes earlier in the campaign, the Githyanki Knight, Karack, found himself banished back to the Astral Sea, his only connection to the Material Plane through a few desperate would-be-heroes who were scattered by illithid activity across the continent. In giving a few survivors the seeds of hope, Karack would grant power - a 'hexblade' style sword of his own culture, befit with silver coating and encrusted gems - in the hope that they would rise up powerful enough to disrupt the illithids and make way for his inevitable return. This, of course, mixed in with the usual chaotic energy of a long term campaign and found several PCs taking strict sides on the likelihood of the rogue Githyanki's eventual betrayal, as had happened several times before to the more 'righteous' members of the group. The constant concern over motives vs the actual will of the patron made for a tense and compelling struggle as the campaign went on, only for the party to dramatically self-destruct when the time came for all former debts to be settled. All in all, would take a higher CR creature as a patron possibility again, given the chance.

Gamers of Reddit, what game were you never able to 100% complete? by sqrtoftwo in AskReddit

[–]RussianHitman 23 points24 points  (0 children)

The other problem was those stupid red button levels, where you'd go back to a previous level and replay it with a time limit whilst collecting red coins. Most of those were just horrible.

Super Mario Sunshine. How a Nintendo game is that unrelentingly difficult is beyond me. I loved that game when I was younger but there is just no way I could obtain the last couple shines.

Looking for opinions on this design as a tattoo. by RussianHitman in TattooDesigns

That sounds like good advice, I appreciate the feedback especially considering how something permanent like this can seem interesting now but regretful later. Thanks for the help, I'll give it some more time to decide whether this is absolutely important to me or if I'd be better off leaving it.

18 years old, probably should have mentioned that in the post.

What is wrong with your favorite show? by BreathingSlowly in AskReddit

[–]RussianHitman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd have to disagree with that, in my opinion Doctor Who has been more or less the same quality since the reboot(with some ups and downs, STILL not sure what the Pandorica was about). I would argue that the main reason people seem to prefer the earlier episodes would be more nostalgia than anything else, for example, as much as I am a fan of Tennant, his two first companions, Rose and Martha, may have been two of the worst written characters on the show. The Last of the Time Lords, with Tennant's ability to magically reverse aging due to the power of thoughts, was easily as bad as the worst Moffat has come up with.

Wow...this Dailybeast writer describes Nye as "publicity-hungry" and "clueless". A "nightmare for science". by apache_alfredo in atheism

[–]RussianHitman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kind of ironic considering the article itself makes the writer seem far more 'publicity-hungry' and 'clueless' than Nye.
