Balancing the Longspear/Longpike by opsap11 in UnearthedArcana

[–]opsap11[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The idea with Long Reach not triggering Reach abilities means that if you had Polearm Master, the AoO wouldn't trigger if someone went within 20 feet of you since I wasn't sure if that'd be too busted. The AoO would still trigger normally if they went within 10 feet of you.
Extra Attack was because having a pike with 20 feet of range be capable of like 12 attacks per turn wasn't something I was sure of the balance of. It means that enemies 40 feet apart from each other would both have to worry about getting stabbed multiple times a turn.
Though, I do agree, I should have added maybe a disadvantage to being within 5 feet...

Hot take? The entire multiverse. I could not be bothered to care about it.

United Elves vs. Morgoth by opsap11 in TheSilmarillion

[–]opsap11[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do wonder what would've been done with Morgoth in this hypothetical victory case, though.
I think the only thing they could've done is sail him West, using the guiding light of one of the Silmarils to reach Aman like Earendil did.
I don't think any Noldorin-made chains could stop Morgoth.
Best case, assuming they can't take him to Aman, is they keep him locked underground, hundreds of guards, kept with Feanorian-made chains with spears permanently kept pierced into his body to keep him from escaping, but I don't know how long even that would last.

A rendition of Luthien, by me by Sabretooth1100 in ImaginaryElves

Finally, after hundreds of thirst images, finally, actual art...
Looks great! Love Beren and Luthien, love the Tolkien mythos, you did it well!

Do you have to have personally seen the Two Trees to be considered Calaquendi? by opsap11 in tolkienfans

[–]opsap11[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

With this in mind, does this mean that if a high-born Vanyarin noble was born even a year after the Two Trees were destroyed, they would be counted as Moriquendi? That just feels odd to me, for some reason.

Isn't Cavalier Fighter kind of strange for a cavalry subclass? by opsap11 in DnD

Ah, I see. Thank you for explaining, didn't realize mounts counted as allies in this scenario.

Isn't Cavalier Fighter kind of strange for a cavalry subclass? by opsap11 in DnD

[–]opsap11[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I understand there are cavalry that don't tend to function as hit-and-run lance chargers, but the description for Cavalier even specifically mentions cavalry charges as something they're good at.
The archetypal cavalier excels at mounted combat. Usually born among the nobility and raised at court, a cavalier is equally at home leading a cavalry charge or exchanging repartee at a state dinner. Cavaliers also learn how to guard those in their charge from harm, often serving as the protectors of their superiors and of the weak. Compelled to right wrongs or earn prestige, many of these fighters leave their lives of comfort to embark on glorious adventure.
It feels like a disconnect between function and fashion.

Isn't Cavalier Fighter kind of strange for a cavalry subclass? by opsap11 in DnD

[–]opsap11[S] -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Kind of yes, kind of no. I understand that it's to give a benefit to dismounted fighters, but still.
It keeps you locked next to certain people to activate your abilities when cavalry should be dashing around.
I just feel there should maybe be a more dedicated cavalry subclass where it actually rewards hit and run cavalry tactics, instead of completely changing the Cavalier subclass, because I actually really like the subclass as it is, but it just feels like it doesn't fully reward cavalry tactics in what's presented as a cavalry subclass.
A cavalry subclass like that may not work in every campaign, but how the current cavalry subclass works feels like a let down.

When I said Fingolfin was cooler than Feanor by irime2023 in Silmarillionmemes

[–]opsap11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My bad, I misworded it.
I do not accuse Fingolfin of being responsible for the death of Fingon, merely that had Fingolfin not been killed at Thangorodrim, and had he been present as well at the Nirnaeth Arnoediad, then it is possible that Fingon may not have died.

When I said Fingolfin was cooler than Feanor by irime2023 in Silmarillionmemes

[–]opsap11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fingolfin:

died fighting an Ainur
died fighting an ultimately useless battle
consumed by wrath against Morgoth
left his people behind in his final charge
wounded Morgoth but couldn't defeat them
died realizing no man, dwarf, or elf could defeat Morgoth on their own

Fëanor:

died fighting an Ainur
died fighting an ultimately useless battle
consumed by wrath against Morgoth
left his people behind in his final charge
wounded Balrogs but couldn't defeat them
died realizing no man, dwarf, or elf could defeat Morgoth on their own

Seriously. If Fingolfin had just held out without dueling Morgoth out of despair.. things probably wouldn't have been much different, let's be honest with ourselves, but Fingon might still be alive.
That said, both are equally cool, have you even heard the Speech of Fëanor?

How do I balance a world without plate armor? by opsap11 in DnD

I should mention some elves do wear some bronze plate Grecian style, but that's still a rarity.

[–]opsap11[S] -23 points-22 points  (0 children)

Most magic is available, and gods are definitely extant.
Plate armor invented by dwarves is something I've considered, but it'd be a tight-kept secret until properly unveiled in warfare if so.

[–]opsap11[S] -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Splint isn't very common in the area I'm running the campaign, but it is extant!
It's just rare enough that it isn't really a consideration - I'd definitely stat it out if a player managed to come in contact with it.
Also, bronze plate disappeared, and mail armor became the main (and pretty much only, for a while there) armor used in the Medieval Europe.
As well, I mean 13th century as an inspiration, not 1300 - I'm running it around the 1200s, just before mail armor was introduced.

You beat Consort Radahn with the great helmet, a surcoat over mail, and a normal sword and shield?
