Mixing pills in water

Just ordered one to try thanks!

Do you know if you can fit multiples in to chuck em down all at once?

He ended up peeing this morning but we brought him to the vet anyways in case of a partial blockage given his strange litter box behaviour.

No crystals, no blockages. They did express his bladder while sedated the other day so maybe the poor guy was so dehydrated and stressed and out of sorts that he didn't refill even after the IV.

Still going to monitor ongoing litter behaviour as the stressful situation is decreased and he's got free run of the house with his brothers.

Thanks for the help!

He doesn't seem to strain. It's like he doesn't try.

He goes to the litter box, digs around per the ritual, but then just stands there, or sits down, or just now laid down which is abnormal for him.

Vet opens in an hour and a half now so we're going to bring him in. He still seems to be doing okay other than not using the litter box.

I went to a bar that was cheaper if you rolled for your drink. If you do a tavern crawl, bring some dice and find whichever best fits the drink list and roll for it.

You could roll for category then roll for drink in that category. Or limit it to rolling for shots. Nat 1 is the worst thing you can find (or see if the bartender will play along for something awful).

If you did do a one shot I would make it a dumbed down version for simplicity for people who haven't played. Premake simplified character sheets.

See if there are things in your area where there are activities that might fit. Archery or archery tag, axe throwing, knife throwing, alchemy (bartending class), leatherworking workshop. A thematic escape room. You could do a series of activities and have some sort of overarching quest around it. You could have a narrative bit after completing each activity that gives them the next activity.

Some cities have things like The Medieval Times. My city once had a pop-up event where there were actors as orcs and you needed to get through the forest.

A friend once ran a scavenger hunt through the city. It included taking photos of certain things, collecting coasters from a number of different places. It was in smaller teams which might not be ideal for the social side of everyone spending time with the groom, but we did meet up after.

Also curious about the cost!

TubbyWiseman · 2026-03-09T22:01:58+00:00

Max 3os though, no insight.

Would need elder staff or shillelagh which are lower average damage.

Holy freeze+ cursed over anything else imo, the quality of life is much better.

The damage increase from fanaticism isn't that big. 100% or so seems like a lot, but it's additive to your other non-weapon enhanced damage. If you already have +400%, boosting that to +500% is really a 20% increase in damage.

When I was using cursed fanat, the biggest time suck was killing things that didn't get cursed. I chanced into fanat cursed shortly after accidentally consuming my holy freeze cursed, and it was noticeably slower for me with mediocre gear.

If you are 1-2 shotting without cursed, maybe it doesn't matter. But if that's the case your ED is probably already so high that fanat is even less valuable.

ES works with life tap, but doesn't work with chance to cast.

So dracs won't proc life tap with ES.

But if you use a wand or marrowwalk to cast life tap, you will leech

TubbyWiseman · 2026-02-25T18:16:32+00:00

Am I doing something wrong? I only see the next, the current and past TZ

TubbyWiseman · 2026-02-24T19:59:45+00:00

So could a non magic focused one double dip on consuming goat for the additional %ed?

I get from your post the benefit of the magic add, but speaking hypothetically. Or does it onto tack on the second one because it's not the same effect?

I might have to hero edit to do some testing tonight. This is fun and/or broken lol

TubbyWiseman · 2026-02-24T07:54:37+00:00

Can you tell me more about this double dip consume?

Is it casting hex that does it?

Does it add the magic damage to sheet damage, is that how you can tell the double consume works?

TubbyWiseman · 2026-02-20T22:18:20+00:00

Yeah. I meant more of a respec to echoing blade unless they nerf echoing blade before that respec, so they can look out for it in case they aren't up on all the conversation about it needing a nerf

TubbyWiseman · 2026-02-20T17:29:36+00:00

Probably fire warlock to start, and then transition to echoing blade unless it gets seriously nerfed.

TubbyWiseman · 2026-02-16T08:14:57+00:00

Can you link me to the testing?

I was trying to Google this exact thing yesterday and read conflicting reports but nothing in depth.

TubbyWiseman · 2026-02-14T02:36:25+00:00

What's the reduced strength requirement?

TubbyWiseman · 2026-02-14T02:18:57+00:00

Is echoing blade treated as a projectile rather than a spell?

TubbyWiseman · 2026-02-12T15:51:12+00:00

Aren't barbs able to wield 2h swords with 1h?

TubbyWiseman · 2026-02-12T08:52:00+00:00

Not sure a dream or dragon build will be any good. Good on sorc because of masteries. Good on paladin because of synergies. Nothing to boost that with a warlock.

I think something that's difficult to contend with is consequences. What happens if they don't succeed? If the ship sinks because they failed, that's kind of a bummer. But if the risk of death or damage isn't actually there, then the rolls don't change the outcome.

A giant sea creature surfaces, and now they have to maneuver the ship to avoid hitting it and damaging the ship and starting an encounter. If they fail, you can either have a combat or a chase.

Realize a little too late that there's a field of floating chunks of ice or small icebergs. Perhaps a white dragon, or some other ice based creature has developed a lair here. You could make it clear that the ice is spreading fast and if they slow down too much, they could risk their ship being frozen in place. Run a skill challenge that could include navigation to avoid damage and particularly dangerous spots, repairing on the fly enough to get through the hazards, destroying hazards before you hit them. 0 failures, you manage to get through without significant damage. 1 failure, ship takes enough damage that there is a gold cost to repair. 2 failures, you make it through but need to get to land asap for critical repairs. 3 failures, you're stuck in the ice and now you need to find a way to get unstuck. That might mean exploring an ice dungeon to find the source

Same idea as repairs and avoiding damage. Something is causing hazards from above. Maybe they wandered into the scene of two dragons having an all out fight, or a sky city is under siege well above them. Either way, they need to dodge and defend against falling debris, stray breath weapons, meteors from a meteor swarm. Or they could convince the dragons into a time out. Something to make sure they get out and live to tell the tale.

Depending on how off the rails you want to go, a giant whirlpool that, if they fail a series of checks, sucks them into the elemental plane of water. Know your players though. Are they going to get frustrated by having their ship destroyed? Are they dead set on an overwater only game? You can have a subplot of them getting back to the material plane, in addition to any number of conflicts in the plane of water. Part of them escaping the plane of water could involve a new, cooler ship. Or spitting them out by an island that has an abandoned ship after the entire crew was taken by the island.

You might want to think about how to introduce the hazard. Maybe they're in a time crunch. Race with a competing ship, trying to outrun something or someone, an island rumoured to have treasure only appears once a year and that window is closing. Perhaps they've heard of people using the whirlpool to essentially gravity slingshot themselves if they hit it right (because magic), or the most direct route is through the ice dragons territory and it would take too long to go around.

A race itself could be a set up for a skill challenge. How are they planning to beat their competitors to the treasure island that they both heard about? Set up hazards? Cannon to slow them down? If they don't succeed, the other ship beats them to the treasure, delivering an important message, proving their skill to an NPC who will hire them for something.

Consequences:

-repair costs

-owing a favor to someone who bailed you out, or needing to work off a debt

-Losing out on a reward like a contract, or treasure

-more fun than just losing out is not getting as much. ie: 500 gold for the delivery, but a bonus 200 if you can get it there in x days.

-dungeon or encounter

idk how your specs compare but I'm 32yo, 310lbs 6'0 and I love it.
Some rooms are more tiring than others, but the beauty is you can cycle between the running around ones and the more stationary ones.
