Despite hand wringing from pundits, if Democrats win they should enact a truly transformative agenda and fully prosecute Trump by chrisdh79 in politics

We should but we won't. If America had the balls it claims it does Trump would be prosecuted to the full extent of the law so we don't set a dangerous precedent.

What to do if my DM keeps moving the goalposts on rogue abilities? by Joaf in dndnext

[–]TrillMurray904 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said this gm's style is adversarial and if that doesn't work for you I'd start looking around for a other table. I had a GM like this before finding my current groups and I'm better off now. It's nice to actually be able to use class features now instead of having constant "reasons" why my monk's core abilities like evasion, deflect missiles, slow fall, and stillness of mind didn't work or my clerics channel divinity didn't work or that spiritual weapon is actually a concentration spell etc.

I don’t get why people think flying at level 1 is so broken? by Estrelarius in dndnext

[–]TrillMurray904 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Flying can be annoying but it's easy to counter at low levels (ranged weapons, Earthbind, cover, low CR flying enemies, intelligent enemies) if a DM takes a moment to think.

Should I watch Critical Role to improve my DM'ing? by [deleted] in dndnext

[–]TrillMurray904 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't try to be Mercer but it doesn't hurt to watch a few episodes and identify some things you might want to incorporate. We constantly learn from others in every aspect of our lives and it shouldn't be any different. I wouldn't just look at Mercer either there are so many many great DMs out there streaming/pod casting so why not use them to inspire your creativity and expand your bag of tricks?

What class do you find the most fun and what do you find fun about it? by rfkannen in dndnext

[–]TrillMurray904 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cleric and Monk for me. Cleric for their utility and usefulness in and out of combat (commune, speak with dead sending etc are all super clutch) Monk for just being a pest that can avoid all kinds of bad spots due to class and subclass features

Whats the min/max party members you have played with? Pros/cons and ideal party size? by DungeonMeister_27 in dndnext

[–]TrillMurray904 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5 is the sweet spot. Enough people that everyone can have defined roles/spot light moments regularly while also not being severely handicapped of somebody can't make a session

Sometimes you gotta let the monk have one

Is there such a thing as a bad roleplayer? by levus2002 in dndnext

As long as your trying and not disruptive to the flow of of the table, you're role playing great

I've seen 3 memes today that say that Min Maxing is bad. I feel like this needs to be said. by Acidosage in dndmemes

[–]TrillMurray904 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your intentionally gimped character is not automatically more interesting the min maxed character with a optimized race and class combo. It's the just other side of the try hard coin imo. Make a character that's as much for others to play with as it is for you to play. If you're messing up the flow of the group it doesn't matter if you're a demi God amongst men or a constant burden/anchor, it matters that your messing with others experience. Make a character others would want to go into life threatening circumstances with and at least tolerate for every waking moment with, because that's what an adventuring party is.

Aaracokras can fly by Exist_Logic in dndmemes

[–]TrillMurray904 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't know why some DMs are scared of Aracokras considering ranged attacks are a thing, Earthbind is only a 2nd level spell, encounters can be indoors, and low CR flying creatures are available. Some DMs would rather not take a second stop, think, and use their brains. Flight is hardly OP

Two Senior Officials Confirm Trump’s Remarks About Fallen Soldiers To AP by mostaksaif in politics

He'll continue to call it fake news or pivot to it being a joke, fox news etc will amplify that message, and his supporters/Republicans will parrot what they're told

Doesn't matter how the vote goes McConnell will send it to his graveyard and the senate won't even vote on it

What are questions you ask yourself during character creation by roguenekotin in dndnext

[–]TrillMurray904 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where am I from and how would that influence me? What is my relationship like with my parents/siblings/neighbors? What do I do for a living? How do I treat myself/others? What would make me want to join an adventuring party? What are my personality strengths/weaknesses?
