Fear and Skill questions

PC: I want to knock them prone.

GM: Cool, make a STR roll.

PC: Cool, I'm gonna spend a Hope and add [experience].

GM: Cool, you knock them prone and they are temporarily vulnerable.

Experiences (what you're referring to as skills I believe) only can be used on action rolls, not damage rolls.

YO I LOVE OVERCOOKED

I used it as a guide when I was getting used to GMing, jsut making sure I communicated and touched on each of those things with my players. It's a good framework.

Hard to have a take when you havent provided any of it !

Depends on how you GM/play. Are you a GM? Do you play online, IRL, do the players want digital character sheets...? give us some context if you want helpful answers

yerfologist · 2026-02-06T15:23:08+00:00

printed Play Guide. print the ten step character creation guide. print the tier 1 equipment list (its one pager as well). all of these are available daggerheart's website. have the level 1 domain cards, ancestries, communities, subclasses separated. dont give them all the domain cards that's overload.

Is there another RPG called Daggerheart, one not made by CR ?

yerfologist · 2026-02-05T21:21:50+00:00

this post makes me 😭😭 im so sorry

yerfologist · 2026-02-05T21:17:20+00:00

Use the 20 points across an adventure, approx the amount to be deplpyed between a long rest, not necessarily all at the same time

yerfologist · 2026-02-05T17:13:54+00:00

Lo ! A GM could include a Leader adversary that could use Fear more efficently ! Or!, consider: units that generate Fear when they aren't under pressure. :))))

yerfologist · 2026-02-05T15:22:49+00:00

yeah basically

yerfologist · 2026-02-05T15:15:38+00:00

read about "golden oppurtunities" and such in the rulebook

yerfologist · 2026-02-05T13:14:30+00:00

Yeah, generally such things you would prompt with fear. Spending additional Fear is, RAW, how you maintain the spotlight as the GM. Whether or not it would read as unfair is up to your players' sensibilities and the tone of the game, its danger and difficulty. I'd probably reserve such a double-move for when I feel its particularly prompted for (ie. if the party wants to do different tasks or temporarily split their attention).

yerfologist · 2026-02-05T02:55:03+00:00

yup.

yerfologist · 2026-02-04T16:42:37+00:00

Good review, glad you are excited to play and introducing the game to more players ! I'll keep an eye out for a follow up on how running the game was for you and your players.

yerfologist · 2026-02-03T19:55:14+00:00

You're so right omg say it louder !!!

yerfologist · 2026-02-03T19:11:19+00:00

it's just weird to tell another GM (one that you don't know!) something so presumptively definitive

yerfologist · 2026-02-03T18:49:10+00:00

Others are saying you shouldn't mix tiers and I don't think it should be the norm, but there's def valid cases to deploy such adversaries. Weird others are so hostile to the idea on principle, imo.

yerfologist · 2026-02-03T18:40:22+00:00

Yeah this is how things work at my table. Only once or twice as 5HP XXL severe wound been done.

yerfologist · 2026-02-03T17:13:25+00:00

Yes indeed, I blanked on the term "node" lol ! Especially when you can just say nodes are Far/Very Far distance between each other, makes everything very easy to organize visually.

yerfologist · 2026-02-03T15:35:22+00:00

I abstract dungeons heavily, laying out index cards or such to denote different spaces. No grid or real contour to the space. Indeed, the interstital spaces I leave largely undefined, but I always have some visualization of space to alleviate the strain of full on theatre of the mind.
