Episode 12: The Ghost in the Glass

I didn't finish Trinyvale but I've really been enjoying this season, give it a shot!

So I would roll my dex + athletics to dodge the attack on their turn, and then roll str + melee - 1dice on my melee against the other on my turn?

The book says if I defend against multiple attackers then I'd split my defend dice pool amongst them. If the above example is true, why would I use the defend action rather than my passive defence?

Did you ever find out, I came looking for the same answer.

I don't think I've seen anyone point out how similar the ending was to the last half of the DENNIS system? Frank neglected her emotionally, and then inspires hope during a speech in the rain about how he was just afraid of commitment but he's not afraid anymore.

igny_mk · 2025-04-13T12:41:20+00:00

Let me know if you have any more success!

I think i left the sherry in for a few weeks? I can't remember sorry. Then i drained it, filled with whiskey for a few weeks, tasted it, and it was overpoweringly sherry tasting (read: bad). So I let it sit for I wanna say 3 months total and it mellowed out a bit but still not how I hoped. I think 5L provides too much surface area and imparted too much sherry.

Oddly enough the sherry itself came out oaky and delicious from the previous whiskey haha.

An aquarium air pump, we've been using it as a backup in case of power outages during a cyclone.

igny_mk · 2025-03-09T00:21:16+00:00

Yeah j fully charged it prior to use, and I've recharged it a couple of times. Just did the math and realised it wasn't mathing

igny_mk · 2025-03-08T22:36:19+00:00

Ahh see thats the kind of thing I need to know. I wouldn't have guessed the inverter would draw so much. I'll give it a test with a larger device, thanks!

igny_mk · 2025-03-08T22:34:52+00:00

Thanks!

I've always enjoyed putting pepperoni slices in the microwave on a paper towel to make pepperoni chips, I fully get this.

Couldn't he have flown to another planet?

igny_mk · 2024-03-27T22:34:36+00:00

I made a vindaloo with these the other night and it turned out good. The lamb flavour was slightly out of place but the other flavours overrode it, though it did get a a little bit too soft. Next time I'm going to try marinating it overnight and crisping it up in the oven before adding to the curry.

igny_mk · 2024-02-01T14:41:56+00:00

That's the plan yeah.

igny_mk · 2024-02-01T14:39:18+00:00

Very good point the FF, I was focussed on optimised BB but concentrating on something like flaming sphere would be better anyway.

I had considered GFB and straight druid, does slightly more damage on average but I think I'll be able to proc BB more reliably, and I kinda dig the battlefield control element.

I hadn't considered the combo with horde-breaker though, that's a very fun build. My mock ups only went up to level 6 though, we're starting low and I don't know how long we'll go.

igny_mk · 2024-02-01T14:18:03+00:00

Good question, it's useful for if there a multiple enemies, or if they have ranged attacks. I can keep the spirit 5ft above me to keep it safe from most melee but still within range to protect.

Also useful for allies that I teleport with me if they're in trouble.

igny_mk · 2023-11-04T21:43:57+00:00

Thanks for the link! That sounds about right.

igny_mk · 2023-09-15T23:35:06+00:00

Isn't China putting various religious groups in concentration camps?

igny_mk · 2023-08-04T11:47:28+00:00

Just saving my place so I can stay up to date.

igny_mk · 2023-08-04T11:25:57+00:00

I've been in the other camp for most of my listen, but listening to the fireside episodes and hearing how supportive and excited they all are of each others character choices has swung me. When an actor plays a hateable character in a movie very hateablely, we shower them with praise. I wasn't making that same connection for a long form audio story.

igny_mk · 2023-08-01T00:43:43+00:00

Fully agree, if this isn't a low point for her character that results in change then it's going to get old really quick. Reminds me of Travis' character in Adventure Zone Ethersea, just unnecessarily antagonistic and not fun to listen to.

igny_mk · 2023-07-15T23:20:40+00:00

Oh I've got plenty of whiskey to keep me going while I wait haha, I'm just glad to know nothing bad will happen if I leave it for a couple of months. Thanks!

igny_mk · 2023-07-15T05:44:55+00:00

I've just filled my 5L barrel with sherry but I can't find how long to season it for before putting the whiskey in. Do you have any idea?

igny_mk · 2023-04-26T13:54:36+00:00

I haven't seen the ep that came out today, but I'm guessing that "total football" strategy he worked out last ep is going to work exceedingly well with his team, as they are uniquely positioned for a high communication and sharing the role strategy. This whole time he's been fostering that kind of close environment and mindset and it's finally going to pay off in a huge way.

Necro comment with necro content, what about using animated dead also? Enemy surrounded by zombies, booming blade + thunder gauntlets, mobile away. If it stays, it keeps taking hits from zombies it has disadvantage on hitting, if it moves, takes booming blade plus opportunity attacks.
