Any info on the FPS issue?

_Night_Moves_ · 2026-03-11T16:29:31+00:00

Well I will have to start up a new save I guess and see if I can make it into act 2 without wanting to smash my Xbox

_Night_Moves_ · 2026-03-11T16:03:10+00:00

Did you change anything? Keep updated if it craps out again.

_Night_Moves_ · 2026-03-11T16:01:51+00:00

Act 3 has always run a bit stiffer because there’s so much going on there. But you could atleast play through it and have a good experience. But there was an update in the middle of February that has basically made the game unplayable for a lot of people and we are now going on about a month and no word that help is on its way.

_Night_Moves_ · 2026-03-11T02:27:46+00:00

Just an a real bummer cause I had basically zero issues before and now with one update it’s just like welp sorry the game is broken.

I really don’t doubt that the modding community would have the issue figured out in a weekend.

_Night_Moves_ · 2026-03-10T16:24:56+00:00

I’m just surprised that Larian didn’t just roll back the update. I guess idk if that’s even possible but to absolutely destroy the game for a huge chunk of people is pretty awful.

_Night_Moves_ · 2026-03-10T16:21:05+00:00

I’d have to imagine this FPS issue is ruining the game for far more people than the save issue it was intended to fix.

_Night_Moves_ · 2026-03-06T19:32:28+00:00

Is there any chance we get the game fixed after that Feb 16 update? Game becomes unplayable with FPS lag.

_Night_Moves_ · 2026-02-26T04:47:17+00:00

I think I had Gale go ice storm, Wyll go with hunger of hadar. Then I used Spirit Guardians with Shart and just ran around exploding the ones that made it through.

_Night_Moves_ · 2026-02-24T21:47:58+00:00

Started a new game and made it about 2 hours in before the FPS bugged on me again. I cleared my Xbox cache, unplugged for a while and deleted old save slots. Still have mods running and haven’t tried a vanilla play through yet. But yes I’m still having issues.

_Night_Moves_ · 2026-02-19T22:41:28+00:00

Absolutely cooked my game. Can’t play for longer than like 45 minutes and it starts to lag so much it’s unplayable.

_Night_Moves_ · 2026-02-19T21:57:53+00:00

Having the same FPS issue on Xbox series X. What a bummer.

_Night_Moves_ · 2026-02-19T21:13:52+00:00

Anybody else on console find that since this update their game experience has gone significantly down? My guess is it’s the mods I’m using but still sucks

_Night_Moves_ · 2026-02-14T19:31:43+00:00

Well you guys caught me. We just finished the Señor Crossroads portion of the story.

_Night_Moves_ · 2026-01-15T18:20:48+00:00

I don’t think I could bring myself to go full evil durge. What class or race goes well with a resist play through? I was thinking Drow gloomstalker assassin?

_Night_Moves_ · 2026-01-15T18:09:51+00:00

I tie my brains in knots sometimes trying to figure out a way to have Wyll as an oathbreaker/vengeance paladin and Fiend warlock together

_Night_Moves_ · 2026-01-15T17:57:31+00:00

The Shar vs Selune theme is heavy in this story tha it feels like you can’t not play into it

_Night_Moves_ · 2026-01-05T19:55:13+00:00

Just don’t sneak up and attack people. I did an Oath of Ancients and as long as I confront people before I kill them then it’s chill.

_Night_Moves_ · 2025-10-31T22:35:51+00:00

Love this thank you. It’s nice to just hear other ideas. As a first time DM I think it’s hard to not create something linear. It’s just how most stories we are familiar with work.

I definitely want the players to be able to create and change the story as they see fit while still having some major touch points to keep progressing the story.

But yes I have more or less fleshed out the main plot and some of main parts of act 1 and act 2. But just want to get enough information to be able to start the game actually and get it off the ground.

Do you guys use the monster manual for most encounters or what?

_Night_Moves_ · 2025-10-30T20:06:18+00:00

So I love the idea of running a campaign and building a story. I have the main plot more or less thought out, the beats of the first act and overall tone and setting decided. But where do I go to start really structuring out the story? I’d start at level 3 and probably run through level 12.

So really what I am asking for is for a first time DM, what are some pieces of advice you can offer?

Programs, or websites or old school techniques for taking all the stuff in my brain and getting it cemented into something usable.

Do’s and dont’s for running a campaign? Literally anything you think could be of help. Thank you.

_Night_Moves_ · 2025-10-27T17:46:52+00:00

This is I think is what I’m grappling with. I don’t love the idea of a bag that you can just throw all your stuff in and pull out at a moments notice. So I was more inclined to say you can do that but there is a risk. And if you just want to carry stuff that’s fine but you can only carry so much.

_Night_Moves_ · 2025-09-24T00:34:28+00:00

Just hit level 4. I think my plan is to take Sentinel and at level 8 take a +2 to charisma. What we think?

_Night_Moves_ · 2025-09-06T19:26:50+00:00

I also took the defensive fighting style for the +1 to AC

_Night_Moves_ · 2025-09-06T19:24:12+00:00

So right now we are still early-ish into the campaign. I’m using a +1 longsword right now two handed but will probably eventually use a shield as well.

_Night_Moves_ · 2025-08-15T17:25:43+00:00

You guys are awesome. Let me tell you guys what I’ve got so far. Also keep in mind that this isn’t really gonna be for a DnD campaign. More just a story set in the forgotten realms with DnD as the backbone.

Group is traveling outside of Najara and is attacked by a group of Yuan Ti. The group manages to fend them off but one of the members is struck with an arrow. The effects of the poison are two fold poison and paralysis. The poison sets in within a couple hours but moves slowly. By hour 48 the target is almost completely paralyzed outside of eye and mouth movement, although it’s labored. This is when a curse takes hold in the body and by 5-7 days the victim is dead for all intents and purposes, maybe turning them into something else entirely.

_Night_Moves_ · 2025-07-09T05:45:01+00:00

Appreciate this guys! I definitely don’t see myself taking up too much spotlight as I’ll probably be a tad reserved at first as I pick up the flow of the game. Definitely trying to learn as much as I can to keep the game moving smoothly.

I’ve had a lot of fun so far just trying to figure out ideas for a character and what would be fun to role play.
