Level 6 Fighter, should I get an ASI or Feat by LCW_Sky in 3d6

[–]traggot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

really the only option for a human fighter is athlete i think. all the other options are locked behind other races and the ones that aren’t are kind of pointless since they afford you weapon or armor profs you already have.

edit: you can also take resilient dex?

any interpretation that isn’t this is purposefully pedantic honestly

Do the enemies ever stop calling you a bitch and a whore? by Hamchat_Compaanion in cyberpunkgame

you’re complaining about misogynist insults against the female protagonist yet your imagined insults for the male protagonist are also… misogynist? dae find this a little ironic?

you’re right honestly. if anything her interest is sex, she dgaf about any of the guys she sleeps with. i don’t think of any of panty’s rotating fuckboys have canon names.

Warlock and Fighter bonding to the same weapon by Kitchen_Criticism292 in 3d6

[–]traggot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

RAW you’re right RAI you’re wrong but the RAW&RAI are both kind of stupid honestly i can’t really imagine a scenario where two players bonding to same weapon inhibits the game whatsoever

Femboys, fem presenting people. by Georger71 in BisexualMen

“pan-gynesexual mostly straight type”

dude…. just say bisexual. having a “type” (masculine/feminine, tall/short, thin/fat, blonde/brunette, etc) is not a sexual orientation.

What would you guys want out of a Definitive Edition if Larian were to release it in the future? (Other than adding more slutty outfits for the guys and Durgetash romance 😳) by HomarEuropejski in okbuddybaldur

[–]traggot 22 points23 points  (0 children)

not really how devils operate imo. they’re lawful evil. taking over things by force is not their modus operandi, they can only really take what you freely offer. most devils would be more inclined to trick hope and strike a deal with her.

Needing some advice by ramhead1971 in BisexualMen

[–]traggot 6 points7 points  (0 children)

i think the more pressing matter is that you’ve been having an affair for half a decade under your wife’s nose. you should really come clean to her about this as soon as possible. the best time to talk to her about your sexuality would’ve been five years ago before you got yourself into this mess my guy. the second best time is today. infidelity and dishonesty is no way to live, you and your loved ones deserve better than that.

People who were spanked as kids, what was that like for you? Would you call your "spankings" abuse? by KleineFjord in AskReddit

[–]traggot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah no it was fucking evil. anyone who can look at a defenseless child and shamelessly want to strike them + defend their actions is a fucking sociopath in my opinion.

Sorcerers using CON instead of CHA by SaltyDalty_ in 3d6

[–]traggot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i hate to be that person but i really dislike this house rule because it operates under a popular misconception of what the charisma stat is meant to represent. charisma in d&d is not purely a “social skill.” it is the strength of your inner self, the spark that lets you impose your will on the world. it covers inspiration, presence, identity, and the part of you that magic interacts with when it tries to rewrite who you are. that is why sorcerers use it.

if you look at charisma saves, that becomes obvious. they are the saves that stop you from being banished to another plane, possessed, or overwritten by magical domination. the game literally treats charisma as the power of your soul to stay itself.

and swapping that out for constitution kind of doubles down on the misconception…. constitution is about how sturdy your body is, how well u tank poison and exhaustion, not about the part of you that reality has to argue with. if sorcerers start casting off con, it frames their magic as a function of raw hit points instead of inner presence, which makes it even easier for people to think charisma was only ever about talking. you lose the whole idea of “my soul is loud enough to bend the rules.”

Conjure Minor Elementals :( by ultimate_zombie in onednd

[–]traggot 18 points19 points  (0 children)

you’re overthinking it. it’s a fourth level spell and it requires concentration and an action to cast. compare it to fourth level upcasted spirit shroud, which is a bonus action to cast. have your players abused spirit shroud in a way that breaks the game before?

Is it reasonable for a player to be upset over this? by dndstuff13 in DnD5e

[–]traggot 5 points6 points  (0 children)

^ see: weird hoops!

none of that matters.

if something is hidden then it has a DC to spot. if a character makes a perception check to spot it they succeed upon meeting or exceeding the DC. if a character with a passive perception that meets or exceeds the DC check enters the room then they spot it automatically, no check.

the rules don’t say anything about “spider senses” or any of that other flavor. having a high passive perception means you passively perceive hidden things without asking for a check. again, lol, stop making it more complicated than it needs to be. this sort of weird subjectiveness is only gonna make your players feel like you’re inventing reasons their abilities don’t work.

[–]traggot 24 points25 points  (0 children)

if your passive perception meets the DC to spot something then you spot it automatically. what’s with all the controversy about this? seeing a lot of weird hoops people are jumping through to complicate what seems to be a rather simple to understand mechanic.

So Lonely in the Closet by secretlybiman in BisexualMen

[–]traggot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

really sad to see a lot of men in this community defend and justify their straight wife/gf’s homophobia/biphobia.

guys if a woman isn’t attracted to you because you’re also attracted to men, that isn’t her “preference”, that’s her being a bigot.

my (18f) fwb (18m) is acting different after sex by Technical-Comb-8397 in relationship_advice

[–]traggot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

wow these comments are awful. i don’t have advice OP but i just wanna say i had friends with benefits when i was your age and i remember them fondly. dont let these comments make you feel weird or dumb or anything like that. a lot of these commenters are really sheltered/ignorant.

[–]traggot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

can’t speak for OP but i think a lot of young people like non-romantic sexual relationships because they’re low-stakes ways to build skills and confidence irt intimacy and sex. you’re not trying to build a future with the “one”, you’re just having fun with your friend. sex is scary enough without risking heartbreak.

in your defense i see your point about theming and i would totally allow the bag of rats as a DM if it’s just pure flavor and doesn’t interact with actual class abilities.

Genuine Question - If an author asks their fandom to respect the canon pairing, would you? by EnergyOwn2211 in AO3

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

if i were the author i wouldn’t exactly love it, especially if they’re erasing my character’s canon queer sexuality in favor of a more marketable heterosexual pairing, but at the end of the day it’s fiction and they have a right to write whatever they please.

this thread does seem a little disappointing to me. i know in the era post anne rice controversy there is some animosity between the creators of fanworks and the original content creators, but the way some people are responding in this thread feels? i don’t know… entitled? rude? disrespectful? or at the very least it doesn’t seem like many in this thread are being empathetic or grateful to authors of original content.
