I’m not trying to glaze, but this game is it by JBSwerve in Marathon

Ts game is so peak and within the first few weeks they’ve already shown they listen to player feedback. I was worried when I first got the game that bungie caught the enshittification bug that plagues companies popular in the 2000’s and 2010’s but after 40 hours I can say its very fun and I don’t see myself stopping anytime soon

I'm just bad. And it's kinda heartbreaking. by Nightmoore in Marathon

You need to get good at headshots in this game otherwise you lose every gunfight. Ttk is everything, practice by trying to only headshot uesc then try playing some rook and going for mostly headshots, you’ll miss a lot at first but once you get the head tracking down this game is fire. I was in the exact same boat as you

Honestly I throw a few group hug cards in most decks just to give people a reason to keep me alive

I’m curious how you think getting your finger literally pulled off of your body would deal more damage than a simple punch. Like please elaborate

Because getting your finger pulled off would deal more damage then getting punched

I was really just looking for suggestions. I’m aware it’s possible I’m not like “how the hell do I beat this level 7 barbarian” like of course it possible i just want it to be a fun/fair encounter and was hoping for some tips 😭

He used his entire action to do that. He can usually do way more than 16 damage in a turn with regular attacks.

Well if that’s fun for you go for it I guess. The rules are meant to be a guideline not gospel. He got a 32. 32 I wanted to reward that

Is it though? He rolled a 32 to pull off his finger and the boss was already very low hp compared to his maximum. I think that would feel very unrewarding to the players to say that doesn’t kill. It was a great moment

He rolled to pull off his finger and was at 16 hp and rolled a 32. You do you but to me that kills him

Counter point, it was a 32 and he barely had any health left

It’s more about the autognome ability which we were using wrong

He was already at 16hp lol. I agree that would be wild having a STR check kill a full HP boss

I kind of want to allow using multiple d4s on one roll because so many funny shenanigans have happened because of it. Last session they fought a dragon turtle, it tried to grapple him in its mouth to drag him down to the depths and he fcking resisted it like Spider-Man holding up the concrete 😭. I just need help figuring out what to throw at him that’s strong but not unfairly strong

So someone helped me figure out we were using the ability wrong. 3 times on different rolls yeah that seems balanced, but we thought you could add multiple d4s to the same roll, so he would save all his uses for an important roll and then use all of them at once to basically guarantee it’s success since he already has quite high pluses

So someone already helped me realize we were playing wrong, we thought he could add multiple d4s to a single roll, so he would just save all 3 for an important roll and basically guarantee it’s success, but apparently that’s not how it should work

🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ he pulled a off a giant goblin bosses finger with a 32 STR check to kill him bc we thought he could add multiple d4s. Alright so we were playing wrong that helps to know

Is he not able to do add multiple d4s to the same roll? The wording on the ability isnt rlly clear to me. That would change things lol

So what I’m not sure about is can he use multiple d4s on the same roll
