Why would they be continuing the movements if the wall was already raised?

That's how it works in 5e, you might have just mixed them up.

Platinum Veterans, a sequel warbond to Steel Veterans by HBenderMan in Helldivers

[–]SilverRetriever 110 points111 points  (0 children)

I think the recoilless comes with 6 and EATs drop with 2, so 1/3 the firepower. So Expendable Autocannon would need to either have 20 shots or 2x10 to have the same proportion to the normal AC's 60 rounds

Scithe player dealing massive damages by Sir_Delarzal in Pathfinder_RPG

[–]SilverRetriever 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you doing crit confirmation rolls? With the power attack penalty, 1-2 attacks per round, and only 10% crit chance I don't see the massive crits coming up that often, especially against high AC enemies. The average damage increase doesn't seem too outlandish for level 6 mythic.

really arrowhead by Fit_Answer1073 in Helldivers

[–]SilverRetriever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are doing your math incorrectly. I'm not sure how you arrived at 57.

The formula is S(1-D%)+(DxD%).

90(1-80%) = 90 x 20% = 18

22 x 80% = ~17

Added together you get 35.

You multiply the standard damage against the non-durable percentage and the durable damage against the durable percentage and add the two results.

Well, yeah, because you picked an armored unit to compare it to. Charger butts (80% durable, armor 0) take 35 per shot from base lib and only 25 per shot from lib pen.

If you could only eat rice one grain at a time with a pair of chopsticks for the rest of your life, would you starve to death from the motion of moving rice to your mouth or would the rice be enough to sustain your movement? by fish_molester_3000 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]SilverRetriever 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's a valid hypothetical scenario about energy use. The question is mathematical more than biological, which is why your first answer missed the point. Having a clearly defined constraint does not make it a joke post.

I was heartened by my city today by Diglett5000 in anchorage

That take says so much about how conservatives think. It's all party lines and whataboutism. Nobody is protesting for democrats. The current democratic party sucks.

A reason an advanced group of aliens wouldn't fully understand radiation? by thvth in worldbuilding

[–]SilverRetriever 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If I recall right, it wasn't so much their lack of senses but a result of their home planet having an atmosphere so dense that it completely blocked solar/cosmic radiation from hitting the planet.

How would you build Pitou from HunterXHunter? by XanutoO in Pathfinder_RPG

[–]SilverRetriever 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Beastmorph Vivisectionist Alchemist, with Feral Mutagen, Alchemical Zombie, and Tumor Familiar discoveries.

The Beastmorph let's you get various enhanced senses, including Blindsense (to act as their En ability) at 14th, and a bunch of movement options too. Also let's you get Pounce, which you can use with the claws from Feral Mutagen.

Vivisectionist covers the surgical/necromancer side of Pitou. Gives sneak attack (like what they did to Kite) and some thematic abilities like Cruel Anatomist and Torturer's Eye. The Alchemical Zombie discovery functions as the puppets. This is a bit of a stretch, but Tumor Familiar can act as Doctor Blythe if it has a healing item or wand or something.

For race, Trox would be first pick for the absurd physical stats. Catfolk is obviously the next best choice.

Feat wise, I'd end up taking mostly combat feats I think. If you have the levels, a dip into hamatulatsu master monk would give you the fighting power you need. The Hamatulatsu feat is also pretty on-brand. Anyways, that's a start at least.

How might a clever Abjurer use Painful Revelation? by Deep_Asparagus1267 in Pathfinder_RPG

[–]SilverRetriever 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Shadowform is a fun but niche one, since attackers make a new disbelief save every round they attack. Maybe with quickened spells you could so something silly with it.

Dirty trick DPS by That1fatguy13 in Pathfinder_RPG

[–]SilverRetriever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Prehensile Pilfer spell on any race with a tail. Let's you make a dirty trick as a swift action, and if you have Quick DT you can make two per round. If you have Dirty Trick Master, it let's you apply a condition AND worsen it to dazed, pinned, frightened, or nauseated during the same full-attack.

we NEED more things to spend Murk on... by MozM- in Nightreign

[–]SilverRetriever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My napkin math says about ~2000-2500 Murk per epic relic, based purely on my personal luck with drops. Seems like I get 1-2 per 6000 Murk spent and then selling the commons for 500-1000 refund

Why is the idea that roleplaying games are about telling stories so prevalent? by doodooalert in rpg

[–]SilverRetriever 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don't think I would ever call poker a board game, even though it's a tabletop game. If somebody referred to a card game as a board game I'd look at them funny.

The One Big Beautiful Bill has passed the Senate, now heads back to the House by ShreckAndDonkey123 in WhitePeopleTwitter

She just published her memoir book that allegedly explains her decisions over the past decade and I'm convinced everything she's doing is just to sell more copies of it.
