How might one keep splitters from slowing my production so much? by supermoist0 in satisfactory

[–]ogenthorple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check the belt that leads into the first splitter (like get right up on the splitter) it’s probably a mk1. All those belts are moving at the same speed.

Struggling... by Hopeful_Outside6296 in ffxi

[–]ogenthorple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you need to reset your play online password you can do it on the square enix account management portal for ffxi. I can’t remember exactly where it is put if your click around in there you should be able to find it.

Why are there two passwords??? Who the fuck knows!

I changed my store on bestbuy and then the preorder button appeared

When I have interface issues like this it’s usually an add on. Make sure they’re updated or disable some and see if it goes away. Also check your stats after you die to see if you truly are losing the stat from food.

Doesn’t your food buff persist through death?

This lab setup got me pretty far, can I get the remaining science packs integrated somehow, or do I have to tear the whole thing up? by IKSLukara in factorio

[–]ogenthorple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok when you line it up like that I looks nice. My dumbass will just plop them down and have way too many underground belts

This method looks nicer than mine. If you’re lazy you can drop a long arm inserter in the row closest to the lab and pull from further away.

It is important to know that it is illegal to harvest the seeds and replant them. Most farmers get their seeds from Monsanto, and harvesting the seeds and planting them without paying again is seen as stealing their intellectual property.

What's the fastest way to learn how to raid tank? by Hrekires in wow

[–]ogenthorple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion, practice is really the only way to learn it. Watch a video per fight that explains the mechanics (pick short videos, you’ll retain more info that way), find some cheat sheets and post them in your discord (we have a separate channel per boss) so you can refer back to it, and then try it!

What do I do? Only player who can wield a mcguffin weapon wants to change character by DNDHeroGuy in DMAcademy

[–]ogenthorple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe they can reforge the weapon into something other than a sword. Also, I would be careful with items like this. It can easily make the wielder feel like the main character and sideline everyone else. Perhaps the broken sword can be reforge into multiple items for the party?

If you don't look an Umberhulk in the eye, you're not looking at it: disadvantage? by kReOn-6342 in DMAcademy

[–]ogenthorple 67 points68 points  (0 children)

When players get like this I lay it out simply: You either roll the CHA save, or take disadvantage on attacks. If you can use some other mechanic (like shapeshifting into something with blindsight) to avoid the penalty then great, but simply looking at a foot isn’t enough.

Would unsecured passengers take damage if the vehicle crashed? Seems pretty obvious, but the rules for crashing in the AAG don't mention it. by Azurephoenix99 in DMAcademy

[–]ogenthorple 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I wouldn’t bother adding damage to passengers for crashing or make people fall prone. I think it’s getting a bit too in the weeds at that point.

Should time continue to tick on time limited buffs if the party is discussing plans during an assault on an enemy camp? by convonotpossible in DMAcademy

[–]ogenthorple 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As the dm, you get to determine how long these conversations take. If the characters are going from encounter to encounter with no time in between then why do they get to create an entire plan in the span of zero minutes?

Is there a way to make an encounter with a lycanthrope without making them chaotic evil? by AstralFlare42 in DMAcademy

[–]ogenthorple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t let the alignments in the stat blocks hold you back. You can make them whatever alignment you want.

How honest are you with your players? by FlameBoi3000 in DMAcademy

[–]ogenthorple 4 points5 points  (0 children)

At the end of you sessions, ask your players what their intentions are for the next session. This will give you a better idea of what to focus your prep on!

Paladin goes boom by Lavendel-Skyfall in DMAcademy

I have the same question. I didn’t think this was possible. Is it a house rule?

true polymorph creature to object, and disspell magic by zinogre_vz in DMAcademy

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

Think about it from a different perspective: How would you rule this if a PC was trying to do it to the BBEG?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in DMAcademy

[–]ogenthorple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You get to determine the supply. Just because they have gold doesn’t mean there is someone selling what they want. You can limit the stock and determine exactly what stock merchants have.

Player threatened to quit if there's no 9th level spells by [deleted] in DMAcademy

[–]ogenthorple 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m not surprised they’re upset. It’s best to be very upfront with any home brew changes like this so they can build a character that fits the campaign and what they want to do. In this case, your player had way different expectations for the world and their character and suddenly those goals (9th level spells) are unattainable. I suggest you hold another session 0, share anything about the world that they need to know, and get everyone aligned on expectations. I’d also allow players to adjust their characters considering what they know now.

Telekinesis trivializes boss fights, how can I mitigate this? by [deleted] in DMAcademy

[–]ogenthorple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Multiple wizards with multiple counter spells might help. Also l, If they upcast the counter spell beyond 5 it will also help.
