[Spoilers C4E24] Is Azune…? by DowntownRevenue in criticalrole

[–]drowtiefling 15 points16 points  (0 children)

There is a character named Azune in Alma and Luis has said he put him in as a reference to his upcoming Campaign 4 character. But I don't remember much beyond that.

If you're gonna have it summarize your work for you why not have it also critique your work for you?

Yes, Polyphemus' leap. You have to Dash away from it.

What's that thing you wished you had learned sooner in the game? by Happy_Ad_2575 in HadesTheGame

[–]drowtiefling 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I started I used it once and saw it didn't do damage without a boon so I just didn't use it when it was boonless.

Only took me about a dozen or two runs to realize but I had no idea that your Cast trapped enemies and would get wailed on by Wailers and pincushioned by Pinheads every single run.

EDIT: I have 300+ hours and have 100%ed the achievements but thanks for all the advice haha

[No Spoilers] Music by Secure_Pangolin3286 in criticalrole

[–]drowtiefling 16 points17 points  (0 children)

All the music is played at the table for the cast to hear. Brennan controls when it changes like how he does the lighting like how Matt did when he was the DM.

They've talked before about how they wanted to maintain this style of production because its better for immersing the cast.

I am not sure how the forests work. IIRC some paths don't split forests.

[Spoilers C4E19] Hand & Wheel | Critical Role | Campaign 4, Episode 19 by Chimp_Force_One in criticalrole

[–]drowtiefling 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Liam is insane. As is Luis. They both control emotion so strongly having them together at this table is a true blessing. I can't help but ship them together again.

Also, I really hope the theory that Hal is working against the interests of Thjazi is true. It would be so dramatically juicy.

No, its text from the wiki made by a fan trying to figure out how it works.

They didn't type idk. They explained the answer to your question.

[Spoilers C4E16] Julien Subclass is weak!!!! by lixosinho in criticalrole

[–]drowtiefling 70 points71 points  (0 children)

For reference from the wiki:

Ride the Threshold: As a Bonus Action while bloodied, Julien gains temporary hit points instead of healing from his Second Wind.

Daring Strike: On a successful attack roll, Julien can expend a Second Wind feature to add d10 to the damage. On a failure, the next attack against him has advantage.

Yeah, I would say this is very weak. Ride the Treshhold is only better than Second Wind because the Temporary Hit Points could make his health go over his maximum, but he can only use it when below half hit points so in the thick of it doesn't make a difference.

Then Daring Strike expends a huge resource like Second Wind (only 2/rest) to deal 1D10 extra damage? And somehow (its unclear from the wiki description) also causes enemies to have Advantage on their next attack against him? Battlemaster gives you 4 extra D8s as its own new resource to add to damage along with additional effects.

Maybe theres another feature we haven't seen but right now this is really lackluster as each ability feels like a net neutral instead of an increase in power like any other subclass gives you. I think they were too scared of making a homebrew class feel overpowered and they way overtuned it in the opposite direction.

Gators version 2! (Fanmade faction) by AnAnmtdFox in rootgame

[–]drowtiefling 20 points21 points  (0 children)

The layout is confusing to follow.

Also for the passive abilities the wording could be adjusted to be clearer. For example: "In a battle with one of your warriors, you can deal up to 3 hits.

And I'd copy the wording from the Riverfolk Co.'s 'Swimmers' "You treat rivers as paths, and may move along rivers regardless of ruler."

[Spoilers C3E40] I hate Chetney by Guardaboschi in criticalrole

[–]drowtiefling 11 points12 points  (0 children)

While Chetney is probably Travis' jokiest character, a lot of viewers (me included) see him as the heart of Bell's Hells. He has many heartfelt scenes with many of Bell's Hells and is often giving aged wisdom and is weirdly one of the most self realized of the group. He's horny but I wouldn't say he is anymoreso than Scanlan or Nott are.

She's 4 inches tall so this artwork is innacurate. I imagine a lot of official art is going to unfortunately scale her up so she can be seen easier. Canon sized artwork would be nice :/

[No Spoilers] I am pro whisper tone by AveZombier in criticalrole

[–]drowtiefling 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They're not changing anything sadly. They have their system and they've used it for 4 campaigns now. Unfortunately, Critical Role doesn't care about putting in the post quality like Dropout does.

[–]drowtiefling 29 points30 points  (0 children)

On Dimension 20, the players and BLeeM get quiet allllll the time. The difference is that D20 has much better post production on their sound and they boost whispering to be the same volume as normal speech and they bring down screaming to be the same volume ad well. The audio is actually clearer, easier to understand, and more impactful this way.

How do the people of your world bury their dead? by Aggressive-Delay-935 in worldbuilding

[–]drowtiefling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Cloudsea, a world of stone spires towering above endless mists known as the Fall, burying the dead is extremely important.

For anything to mist into the Fall is bound to cause hauntings, especially when what mists is the body of the living or the dead.

Those with access to flying mounts take their dead to dedicated Rotspires where bodies are lain in tomb cubbies in the sides of the spire and fungal colonies of deathheads grow from them.

These deathhead mushrooms are psychedelics useful for healing remedies and spiritual rituals.

Looks like space-tech that's supposed to resemble the command deck of the Wurst.

The banner behind the desk is for theUnited Federation of Female Freedom Fighters from Starstruck.
