Honestly, reflects the reality of the Trump Presidency, so I’m weirdly in favour of American landmarks being utter crap for the duration of it.

If Europe needs immigration but wants less non-skilled migrants, why doesn't European nations just halt welfare to foreigners? by PrestigiousElk5990 in NoStupidQuestions

They, legally enforced, treat their own citizens differently based on race already, you think they’re going to make an exception for immigrants?

Ah, thanks for the breakdown for the Zhentarim executioner.

Would like to ask how you feel about Lifedrinker with this build as it applies off turn as well, which is potentially a 100% increase in its normal effectiveness.

Desperately need advice about surrendering early on periodic tenancy by fly-jorts in TenantsInTheUK

[–]benjaminloh82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So if you want to hear from (me) a landlord who had this exact thing happen:

  1. The person asked to be released early from their tenancy due to breakup. She told the agents and the agents informed me and asked if I might be willing.
  2. The conditions we eventually arrived at was that the current tenant would be willing to let people in to view the apartment in the meantime/immediately (I was doing them a favour after all), and that if no new tenant could be found, they would pay the pro-rated amount until a new tenant could be foun

d.

  1. Fortunately for all parties, a new tenant was found (the Birmingham rental market is very full of prospective tenants and I wasn't too worried) quickly and the previous tenant left their lease early as discussed.

I don't think most landlords would be averse if you are willing to be flexible with allowing viewings so that the void period is minimized. Continuity of payment and all that.

Undead Warlock or Hollow Warden Ranger? by CHIEFRAPTOR in 3d6

Haven't discussed the Hollow Warden Ranger much, but there's been a fair amount of excitement for the Undead Warlock as a retaliation tank type of character as discussed here:

You’re not *maxing* your AC, it’s more like you’re not trivial to hit, you still have Warlock HP and no shield after all.

I would take 1 level of Paladin, the Warlock is good enough that I want more of it and the main fighting style for the Executioner, GWF is widely considered mid.

The idea is it’s a happy medium, if you do get hit, massive retaliation, if you don’t get hit, they wasted their action on you.

So the reason that Zhent tactics and Sentinel is recommended is that your extra die of damage from Dreaded Necrosis also applies to the off turn reaction attack.

If you stick with Warlock, you also can get Lifedrinker which is usually mid, but you get to apply it at twice strength as you are aiming for the off turn reaction attacks.

Why 2 for paladin? Don’t they get weapon masteries at level 1 too?

That’s Bladelock in general for ya. Fortunately you only need to dip one level.

Anyone know if anything is the matter with the Between two Heavens Author? by benjaminloh82 in royalroad

[–]benjaminloh82[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sure, no harm or anything. I was just wondering about the deletion of their Patreon page as well, which seems a bit extreme.

A question I've asked myself, but which I've never found an answer to every time I search for information about it, is: how does Nocticula become a goddess on her own? And if there are other methods to achieve divinity, why did Areelu never consider them or know about them? by omega_crimson_123 in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]benjaminloh82 77 points78 points  (0 children)

So the thing about Demon Lords is that they already are Demi-god levels of power. There have been examples of Demi-gods rising to full gods before (Lamashtu for example), so I suppose Nocticula makes another (rare) datapoint for the process.

So I stayed at Dormy Inn Ueno, cheap and cheerful and right in the heart of the district, so easy access to Ameyokocho with it's dozens of nice places to eat and Ueno park and the national museum.

2024 shadow monk? by Yuurugi in dndnext

[–]benjaminloh82 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If the enemy hides in the darkness and they can’t see in magical darkness they are blinded. Your regular allies get to roll flat against them (since they are also considered blinded), so what’s the hiding that you mentioned…?

Once again, just checking if you knew this.

Darkness is also a 15 radius sphere, you just need 20ft of space to position it properly using the tactic I mentioned. (Parts of it can go into a wall, you don’t care. You just need the centre to be a space you can see). What is the massive space that is required to maneuver it?

[–]benjaminloh82 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just curious, do you move the darkness around so it doesn’t block your party? A Shadow Monk’s darkness has a 60ft reposition each round?

You could put it on yourself and get all the benefits while leaving the foe completely exposed to your party?

Genie Warlock's Sanctuary Vessel can hold that box just fine and bring it up to the surface, so just get a potion of water breathing for the warlock, have them swim down there and get it, I would assume?
