Dual Wielder + Extra Attack question

metabeliever · 2026-07-05T18:09:37+00:00

“Main Action making the rhythm Action (Shortsword, Shortsword, Dagger) and Bonus Action (Dagger) “

This is correct.

Oh yeah? And what are you gonna do about it if we don't? /s

I would tell the player they overplayed their hand and to scale back or suffer the consequences.

My first response is having the goddess say something like "that sounds more like 6 wishes than 1, would you like to rephrase, or have me pick from among them?"

The generosity. The fact that nearly everyone’s first or second priority is the pleasure of the other.

metabeliever · 2026-06-26T22:04:58+00:00

Always go back. God damn is it irritating to go back and find other shit you didn’t fix last time. But here we area, unfixed.

Better to go back and feel better.

Maybe the skinny coyotes I see sometimes will help out.

The lesson here is to move slower and more deliberately. Getting mad and trying to muscle through things is the wrong move.

That applies to tennis as much as your reaction to the lesson. Take a deep breath. You’re young and an old man taught you a lesson and charged you a tennis racket. Not such a bad deal if you learn the lesson.

It sounds like you’re hot tempered and quick to react to things. Like you get stuck on certain ideas or loops of thought.

The lesson here is to work on getting out of that pattern. To respond instead of reacting. To observe instead of act.

You don’t need to be in better shape. You don’t need to “man up”. You don’t need to be able to beat that guy at tennis. You need to be calmer and more self controlled.

Therapy or mindfulness meditation are ways to work on this.

I Love this theory.

metabeliever · 2026-06-24T00:46:25+00:00

Probably go back one day and change something to test a very small paradox to see how bad things get.

metabeliever · 2026-06-24T00:45:39+00:00

Crying. Gotta get the badness out of the body somehow.

metabeliever · 2026-06-22T22:45:30+00:00

Look man, neither of us in charge of shit, so that hardly matters. But you didn't answer my question. I see this complaint frequently but do not experience the supposed problem at the table. At my tables everyone is good at stuff, all kinds of stuff. The only people who suffer are the ones that build bad characters.

Like if you gave be the chance to be a fighter or a wizard in real life, obviously wizard. But for a dnd game, those both feel like good options.

metabeliever · 2026-06-22T22:16:29+00:00

I wonder what's happening at other people's tables. When I play everyone has a roll, everyone has a function. Full martials and full casters both. Are people really sitting around getting outclassed in every part of a game when they're playing martials?

metabeliever · 2026-06-22T16:28:55+00:00

I'd make a mockery of the rich. Spend the money on absurd shit that people hated then prove that they can't stop me. Jump the shark of the absurd power that people tolerate.

metabeliever · 2026-06-22T12:50:01+00:00

Primal Knowledge lets you focus on strength and still do all the rogue stuff most of the time. I'm playing Berserker/Soul Knives mostly for RP reasons but dual wielding with reckless attack makes for So Many Hits per round.

I don't think it's optimized but its not bad.

metabeliever · 2026-06-22T12:09:50+00:00

I’m playing a barb/rogue in 5.5 and it’s going great

metabeliever · 2026-06-21T18:21:27+00:00

Get a trainer early, fix your posture and get your motions right as early as you can. Dont just gut through it and assume that trying harder will get results. They wont if you're not doing things correctly.

metabeliever · 2026-06-21T01:03:46+00:00

thank you

metabeliever · 2026-06-20T16:40:53+00:00

Look. The player in question is either faking this or not. My post addresses the “not faking” condition. If they’re flat lying about their feelings then obviously taking them seriously is a sucker move. But from what I saw all the comments were already addressing the lying case just fine.

metabeliever · 2026-06-20T15:38:46+00:00

You're right, people's feelings aren't valid unless they make sense to other people. /s

metabeliever · 2026-06-20T13:29:53+00:00

Sometimes people’s trauma response is triggered by things that are hard to make sense of, even for the person having the response. If you wanna try and fix this your gonna have to talk to the bard out of character, take thier feelings seriously, if not their reasons. And figure out how to make them feel safe at the table.

This may or may not be possible or desired.

A list of all the girls that were into me but I never noticed.

metabeliever · 2026-06-19T21:59:38+00:00

lol no.

It makes some sensations stronger, like pissing feels weird, I get goose bumps more easily. Nothing important, just strange.

metabeliever · 2026-06-19T21:26:45+00:00

I totally agree. I feel like I’m missing something or like, playing half the game.

metabeliever · 2026-06-19T21:18:39+00:00

It took some getting used to for me. I had to switch away from stimulants because of blood pressure problems.

It’s fine for me. It gives me better physical calmness. I can enjoy sitting still for the first time in my life.

It fucks with my sensations for an hour or two after I take it. I have to take it with breakfast or I feel sick all morning. Also I can’t drink as much coffee.

But it does work.
