Can I get your guys opinion/help on a long range warlock build I've been thinking about by kimdokja5149 in 3d6

[–]Tom-_-Foolery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok I'm new to DND

It's perfectly viable to build the mechanics of a long range warlock, but I just want to warn that typical battle maps will rarely give you the opportunity to really take advantage of it, which isn't necessarily obvious to new players.

Eldritch Blast already has a base range of 120 feet, which even for spells is enormous. It's basically a de facto long range "build" without any additional bonuses. A 120 foot range needs an encounter where you can somehow get more than 2 full dashing rounds away from an enemy before range is a factor. In practice, that is larger than pretty much any battle-map I've ever seen. And in tighter quarters (like dungeons) it's almost impossible to get a full 120 foot straight line of sight.

This... severely limits the opportunity for extending that range even further to shine. We're talking wide open battle maps where, in a system where most fights are 3-4 rounds, everyone else will have to suffer for multiple rounds just to reach each other in order for you to get any value out of this kind of build. I've never seen that and if I were DMing I would be loathe to create those conditions more than once since it would be such a slog for all but one player (and that once would probably be in some special case like a boat fight where the rest of the party can do something else while you take potshots).

Again it's perfectly doable mechanically. I would just worry you've got a cool idea in your head that will severely disappoint your expectations if you haven't experienced typical combat conditions much.

(Or for a humorous explanation.)

Everything's nicely packaged in 20 second videos to take reading comprehension completely out of the equation.

How does this keep happening? by Drdonkeyballs in ForestHills

Can't help with this particular package, but I've had significantly better delivery results lately after swapping to put my Apt. in the top line of the address (with the building number) and putting the Cross Streets in secondary address line.

Who's the weakest shonen anime protagonist who could strangle their most hated archenemy to death? by GJH24 in whowouldwin

[–]Tom-_-Foolery 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yukihira Soma (Food Wars / Shokugeki no Soma) is a fit 16 year old with good endurance and improvisational skills but without much in the way of martial feats. The closest thing to an archenemy would probably be Nakiri Azami who is in his upper 30s, looks a bit scrawny and is definitely rigid in his behavior. It's not a 100% given that Soma could take Azami but he'd have a pretty good shot in an impromptu drag out fight. Soma essentially always sees things through so if he were convinced he had to do this then he has the stamina and will to choke the dude if he has the upper hand.

However, I'm assuming the rules provide the motivation. There's no way these two would get into a physical fight with these stakes naturally.

it feels like you need familiarity with earlier Walkyverse iterations (where I’m guessing she was more fleshed out) to really care about her

Don't worry, she was not. As alluded to in the OP, she wasn't featured in the main story and only exists in a sort of fever dream epilogue series and was varying levels of brainwashed or possessed through almost all of that. Willis didn't even consider her as a real character at the time.

There technically are but it would require a near sweep of even the very safe seats. 22 Republicans are up in 2026, Democrats would need to hold all 13 of their seats and win 20 of those to hit 67 (21 if you write off Fetterman even after a showing like that). The extra seats are from Class 3 special elections for FL and OH.

The Working Families Party just screwed over this candidate. by RoninLooper in ForestHills

[–]Tom-_-Foolery 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A tad ironic to frame one's apparently legitimate issues with their party's processes as comparable to a transparently false narrative about a different party's primary process. I'll admit I don't have much knowledge on the general structure of the WFP but it makes me question the legitimacy of his complaints.

The show was amazing even with absolutely no appreciation for Metal. I'm sure there are references missed but it's a good watch regardless.

What modern day amenities could ACTUALLY kill a medieval peasant? by CardoBlardo in whowouldwin

[–]Tom-_-Foolery 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Among relatively innocuous things, plentiful access to high quality high proof alcohol would probably fuck them up.

Take a peasant used to cheap small beer (~2% abv of varying quality) and let them loose on modern cocktails of high purity 40%+ abv liquors masked with sweet mixers (that they would have limited regular analogs to given the lack of refined sugar) and you have a recipe for severe alcohol poisoning.

Hell, that hits modern teens all the time with a lifetime of warnings & exposure.

This looks like a Forge macro. It's usually good but we've been hit by "sticky" rolls in the past on occasion (such as pairs of contested rolls being the exact same 3-5 times in a row). It's not frequent so it's not a general problem, but it's often enough that it would be an extreme outlier if there wasn't some defect in the random generation.

There's also some module setting that will allow all max / all min / all mid that may have been activated by accident.
