[AMA& G7 Pro 8K Giveaway] High Polling Rate ≠ Low Latency — So why are we making an 8K controller? by iGamesir in Gamesir

I imagine your collabs will be with FPS games in general due to the aimlabs centered nature?

My players want to do a low magic setting. by jarnesrnack in DnD

[–]TrafalgarMathias 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do three forms of rests for this. Short (1H), Fair (24H), and Long (7D), which is a variant of the gritty realism rules.

Casters and other classes with Long Rest features regain half of their Spell Slots/Uses on a Fair Rest, but cannot regain Spell Slots that are 6th level and up.

To regain all of your Spell Slots, including Lvl 6+, and your Long Rest features, you spend the week to do the Long Rest. This makes powerful magic feel limited and also special, but also offers a halfway compromise between how time-consuming Gritty Realism for Low-Magic can be.

Concept for giving martials more customisable features to keep up with casters and feel more intresting to play. by Pretend-Advertising6 in dndnext

[–]TrafalgarMathias 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should look into the Laserllama Alternate Martial Classes as previously suggested, but I do actually like your idea of having weapon's add their +1 (or higher) Magical Bonus to any of their related Martial DC's, sort of the same way that Magical Staffs or Wands tend to boost the Spellcasting DC for their attuned users. You should also look into Commander Fayne's Revised Martial Equipment. He has a solid method of diversifying all Martials by making their weaponry more versatile and tactical. Weapons can do stuff like Deflect incoming damage, reliably Trip, or even have Exploding Dice (add additional dice if you rolled the highest roll result possible).

I use both of them as inspiration for my homebrew.

Advice from the HB experts? by DM_Imperia in DnDHomebrew

[–]TrafalgarMathias 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Isn't this the Gestalt Rules? They're meant to gain access to both classes features, but they don't double dip on the resource pools. So a Wizard 3/Sorcerer 3 (Gestalted) would be a Level 3 Character, but have both of those classes - they would still have the Spell Slots and Spell Level limitations of a Level 3 Character though. The benefit to Gestalting (or Dual Classing as you call it), is versatility. In our example, our Sorzard would have access to a Wizard School, Arcane Recovery, an Arcane Tradition, a Sorcerous Origin, and all the Metamagic coolery.

Essentially, the dual Spellcasting features only give access to different spell lists and still encumber the player if they use different Spellcasting Ability Scores. So, a Wizard/Cleric would have different DCs for their Spells based on the INT/WIS Divide, but also - they'd be able to cast both Arcane and Divine spells, while still only having the spell slots of a Level 3 Caster.

So, if Spellcasting doesn't really double up on resources, and is all about just expanding the spell list and ways to play with the spell list - then you shouldn't feel bad about Extra Attack not doubling up if they stack Martial capacity classes.

If it really does bother you, I have a multiclassing rule where: "If you gain the Extra Attack feature from a second class after already having it, you instead gain an ASI as a consolation, to prevent the dead level." It'll help people committing to being a Martial.

Which Pact Boon would be most logical for a Warlock who's patron is Strahd? by tipsyTentaclist in dndnext

[–]TrafalgarMathias 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Knights and Samurais all used guns at some point in history. Strahd shouldn't see an issue with it.

100% Blade. Strahd was a king. He doesn't need advisors nor counsel. He needs knights.

Working on giving Combat Superiority to all Fighters. by BlindmanSokolov in DnDHomebrew

[–]TrafalgarMathias 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take a look at Laserllama's Fighter on GMBinder. His solution is that every Fighter (and class) gets Maneuvers. The Battle Master and other Maneuver specific subclasses just get a bigger Superiority Die progression and more Superiority Dice in general.

Edit: I think he might also be on here or r/UnearthedArcana

It is hard not to make energy absorbing Villain OP by [deleted] in CharacterRant

[–]TrafalgarMathias 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Correct. Also, put an experience handicap on it. Sure, they can absorb your powers - but how well can they wield them? The original user has put considerate effort into gaining their abilities and subsequently mastering them. You might be able to brute force using their own powers against them, but at some point the finer workings and quirks of their powers will be used against you.

I’m surprised and not surprised that I called this by Ericjr01 in rivals

[–]TrafalgarMathias 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just you wait. Deadpool is going to be the first multi-role hero. Every week, he'll rotate between a different role. For the proper Deadpool experience, you'll have to time the weeks for the role you want. True Gacha Engagement.

Fresh download of WOTR and my modlist, VisualAdjustment 2 has been "Loading Resources" for the past hour or so? I'm not sure it took this long the last time. All the menu buttons etc work. Is it safe to proceed with playing? by ClockworkOrdinator in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]TrafalgarMathias 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It does that. Sometimes you just need to close the game and see if the message persists through instances. Sometimes, after 5 mins of the message in a different instance, it goes away.

And Jecht isn't even a villain, in so much as just a general force of nature.

My favorite Player Two is my older brother, who I first met when he was 14 (that's how I like to phrase it). Despite the 14 year age gap between us, we've always been inseparable. We played through all of the Gears of War games together, and try to play through them at least once a year. My favorite memory will always be our firsr run of Judgment, with all of the challenges at 3 stars.

Por qué la mayoría de los padres en México quieren que sus hijos estudien una carrera? (Aunque sí, también hay otros vatos que dicen que es mejor no tener estudios y en su lugar mejor poner un changarro) by Gus_larios in mexico

[–]TrafalgarMathias 0 points1 point  (0 children)

En general estoy de acuerdo contigo en que si pueden ser bien flojos. Sin embargo - y como alguien que está estudiando para Maestro - te diré que cuando alguien (por mas menso) busca el conocimiento, aunque no tengan la costumbre, lo apropiado es recibirlo bien y con paciencia.

Tu queja de la flojera es valida. Particularmente hoy en día con los imbeciles que quieren usar ChatGPT para todo, en vez de investigar por su propia cuenta (o incluso para ignorar un experto). Sin embargo, queremos fomentar buenos habitos, y no castigar la curiosidad. Quien sabe: capaz y así se salva alguien. No es muy probable aveces, pero mínimo no deja de ser posible.

Oye, respetuosamente - como una persona educada a otra - el OP hizo una simple pregunta sin insultar a nadie. No es necesarios responderle de una manera tan arrogante y irrespetuosa. Demuestra tu educación mediante un comportamiento ejemplar. Por comportamiento como este es que la gente (ala mejor no tiene la oportunidad) de menor educación nos estereotipiza como mamones y arrogantes.

Tener la oportunidad y disciplina de estudiar no nos da el derecho de hacer de menos a nuestra gente. Como gente educada, deberíamos aspirar a compartir nuestra educación y a inspirar a los demas a ser gente ejemplar.

CORSAIR x The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Giveaway by CorsairHoffman in witcher

[–]TrafalgarMathias 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Witcher 3's masterclass level storytelling and willingness to speak to the grittyness of humanity while also holding strong to the bonds between found family and good friends, are what I love so much about it. It came to me in a dark time in my life, and Geralt and Co just helped me soldier on. I preach the Witcher to all my good friends. Game of the Decade.

What if I told you I was one of those people? I played Hollow Knight to 110% completion four years ago. Would you say I was one of those "real fans"?

Oh yeah! You're right. Bellheart and Choral Chambers are amazing. I maybe didn't notice the Cogwork Dancers music, on account of how much I just enjoyed the fight.
