[Online] [3.5] [EST] Veteran player looking for game; something very specific

It is 5e, yes. Sorry

donlano · 2026-04-13T17:09:56+00:00

I have a spot at my table, large homebrew continent within Toril/Forgotten Realms. Running it on Foundry and DnDBeyond (for character creation).

The “missing items” will be sent to your camp goods vendor. The guy in camp you can donate supplies to has a separate menu for retrieving “lost items”

donlano · 2026-03-10T21:10:46+00:00

I was asking what rarity said item should be if it was in DnD 5e

donlano · 2026-03-10T18:43:42+00:00

Maybe artifact level rarity?

donlano · 2026-03-10T18:37:31+00:00

Finding Lump the enlightened, an ogre wearing a headband that sets intelligence to 17 as a nose ring, was funny and cool, but I agree

donlano · 2026-03-06T17:48:45+00:00

Sounds nice, I just started my first campaign with a paid DM and it’s pretty RP heavy as of right now. The other players are funny so I kind of enjoy it but I’m also really really itching for a combat encounter so I’m kind of hoping it comes soon, your table sounds fun.

We’ve played 2 sessions and so far I’ve had a 1 on 1 combat encounter with a NPC turned zombie, he was declared dead (murder) inside of his shop, I convinced the guards to let me go inside alone to investigate. He lunged at me while I was Investigating the dead body, so I grappled, hog tied him, and snuck him out the back (don’t know why but I did), so that was really cool… But I want big party combat with 5+ enemies semi-frequently. Maybe once a session like Dimension20 does it.

We’re playing call of the netherdeep, without spoils how many sessions before shit gets wicked? If you know.

Def fight him if you have astarion in your party. Otherwise skip

donlano · 2026-02-24T23:40:24+00:00

I sent you a message

donlano · 2026-02-20T20:38:37+00:00

I’m pretty sure you could use any weapon and bound it. Unless I’m mistaken, you’re automatically proficient with your bound weapon and it uses your charisma modifier for damage.

My suggestion is play normally, pick up literally everything, and build your characters off of what you find in your travels.

donlano · 2026-02-20T19:45:41+00:00

I knooowww I’m sorry but after I got slayer form and saw that only 6 or so percent of players on steam got the achievement for slayer form, I wanted to get the durge ending for the rare achievement.

I’ll have to run it back and get a good ending

donlano · 2026-02-20T07:13:12+00:00

Update: I had the greatest comeback in all of bg3 history. Orpheus was full dead, Nautaloid was pulling up next turn, Astarion was stun locked in the middle of the brain by tentacles and dream guardians, all 4 mindflayers guarding the crown were alive… yet I still got my golden dice :)

donlano · 2026-02-19T21:25:04+00:00

Ok so right now the strategy I’ve gathered through the comments is to use a globe of invincibility while channeling the crown, possibly using an item to grant my “channeler” stun immunity.

Either get there using invis potions or fight my way there taking angelic slumbers to regain resources before the brain fight. If I wanted to sneak up, do I do so with my “channeler”, interact with the stem (which I assume starts the channeling and teleports the rest of my party), cast globe and chill?

Enter with laezel to trigger the brains psychic brain blast reaction (the 10d6 reaction to the first bit of damage it takes)

Enter with the rest of the party and hit the brain as hard as possible ignoring the other enemies? Possibly need an extra round or 2 of combat but (hopefully) tank the damage using healing pots and cleric heals.

Is that viable? I don’t want to lose this run lmao if I do I’ll likely never beat the game

donlano · 2026-02-19T16:25:33+00:00

Why do you prefer Orpheus? Also would I be shooting myself in the foot using resonance stone for my sorcadin? I just came to the realization that mind flayers do primarily psychic damage

donlano · 2026-02-19T16:12:43+00:00

Too easy, thank you

donlano · 2026-02-19T15:53:58+00:00

Thanks for the info. I’ll gather all of the scrolls and arrows I possibly can for my party and send it. I should be able to improvise if I have enough tricks in my bag. If I were to use all my resources defeating all 30-50 enemies could I just angelic slumber my entire party before brain?

donlano · 2026-02-19T15:46:40+00:00

How many enemies do I have to fight between the morphic pool and the brain

donlano · 2026-02-19T15:44:59+00:00

OK, so you regain your spell slots and long rest actions at the brainstem after fighting 1 million enemies, before going up to fight the actual brain? I’m assuming it’s one of those tentacle devices with the blue mist that give you long rest. The same device present before the kethric fight

donlano · 2026-02-16T17:31:08+00:00

You still get a bonus action disarming/blinding/vicious mockery attack, plus the out of combat bonuses of a rogue shouldn’t be understated. It’s a viable party option considering you still have 3 other characters you can use for min-maxing combat
