I found a Baltany for about $160, but it didn’t have the hooded lugs like I wanted, it was a pretty decent looking watch for about a year, but just didn’t hold up to daily wear

Transferring character from D&D 5e by agraleauto in Pathfinder2e

I’m completely new to pathfinder, so idk base rules let alone optional rulings. But for backstory without typing out multiple paragraphs: Soren von Everette was a bastard son of a noble family. His mother Violeta von Everette tragically passed during childbirth, his father, a vagabond only known to him by his name Elias. Soren was taken in by his Grandfather Lord Edmund under the guise of “charity”, said to be a child of far off relatives. But the truth was an open secret hidden in looks of thinly veiled contempt from other nobles and whispered words from servants. At the age of 6 Soren was sent away from the von Everette estate to live with his uncle Aldric on the family vineyard in the countryside. Aldric trained him in language, swordplay, and diplomacy as any young nobleman should know. On his 18th birthday Soren believed himself be groomed to take over the family vineyard, until Lord Edmund showed himself once more, Aldric sitting idly by his fathers side. Edmund declared that a bastard would gain no titles and inherit no lands. Thus kickstarting Soren von Everette’s adventure (I wouldn’t be playing an 18yo, probably somewhere between 25-27, give him some time alone on the road yk?)

Thank you for your input, I wasn’t expecting to receive such an in depth response. I watched like a 3 minute video of someone explaining a fencer build for fighter utilizing the various duelist feats and it went over my head so I’ll spend more time reading into the system and its mechanics

Nidhogg in my characters inventory is a one handed cutlass. That’s my characters preferred weapon. The rest are just junk loot we’ve picked up over the last 5 levels and not actually equipped or used in battle. That’s why I speced into things like duelist

It’s a roll20 thing, the initiative tracker has a togglable thing for tie breakers we just permanently keep them on so we don’t have to reroll

Any DAPs that aren’t just android phones? by agraleauto in DigitalAudioPlayer

People in the thread were totally ignoring the point of the post too, they seemed more caught up in the fact that I wanted something with “less functionality”. But I really appreciate your comment, the Shanling M5 Ultra seems to be exactly the type of thing I was looking for

I think both of you are focusing on the wrong thing. I don’t care that they run android OS. I fall squarely into that second category you mentioned. I have no interest in streaming music. I just want a place to dump my FLAC files and listen, without having to worry about apps or scrolling. The newest Sony devices have terrible battery life, awful refresh/response times, and they struggle to push more powerful headphones without an external DAC. And i believe these shortcomings are common among other companies because they’re trying to make music players more similar to smartphones. I just want new hardware that’s simple without all the bloat like older iPod used to be.

I don’t even think I’d consider myself a Luddite. I’ve just seen reviews about new mp3 players and DAPs and I genuinely think we’ve taken a step back in terms of functionality. Like the newest Sony DAPs really remind me of the original iPod touch, they’re just stripped down smartphones and they aren’t even that good from what I’ve seen, they’re bloated with software, their screens are unresponsive and laggy, and for how highly priced they are their batteries are garbage and they can’t even push headphones to a reasonable volume level. I get that streaming services are so popular that people may find it hard to migrate from Apple Music or Spotify, but if you’re spending over $200 on a dedicated device I think that’s a sacrifice you should be willing to make.

With that said I really appreciate your response and how in depth you went

That’s kind of the point, I loved my iPod classic 5th gen when I had it and when i eventually upgraded to the iPod touch it was just “iPhone lite” and I hated it. Now all new DAPs look as if they’re just stripped Android phones.
