The Leader powers are better, but if you get a healing surge value with the cheapest potion back, you can basically heal yourself every turn at high levels. The extra d6s won't really make that much of a difference at the end of the day. And you certainly don't need Second Wind.

I am more shocked at the schizophrenia. Republic Guy I: "Hey, let's get rid of these perfectly good Star Destroyers and Alliance ships that have legitimate military uses for our defense forces or the defense forces of our member worlds." Republic Guy II: "Great idea, good friend! But keep the...

The reason it is set up that way is so you don#t end up with 50 cheap Level 1 (or Level 5) healing potions and don't need the Leader's healing powers anymore. I personally think it would have been better if they didn't need the high-level wealth magical items and all that stuff and we had a...

When it comes to reactions, interrupts and the like, I sometimes think it would really help to nail it down to a very small number of possible triggers, to make it easier to spell out and look for a simple few key events during combat that are easier to track. The more complicated the condition...

The Bloodied conditions on its own is really just that keeping score on whether you're at half hit points or less or not. But because it's a condition explicitely called out in the game mechanics, other abilities can key off of it. You could have a necromantic spell or assassin ability that...

It probably was just a callback/easteregg for DS9 fans, but if there is a story reason for it, it might also be symbolic to the Rogue Changlings: When Odo joined the Great Link for good, he probably also shared his experiences with the bucket. The bucket represents a time where he was arguably...

I find it surprising that they recap the "must redeem myself in the eyes of my cult" part but not the "Grogu is back" part, which seems kinda more important. Maybe they wish we'd rather forget Luke Ex Machine and Grogu finally getting an education? Or they really think everyone did or needs to...

They actually added something about Romulan culture and made them more interesting with that. The stuff they did with the XBs and the crippled Borg Cube was also quite interesting. And the Fenris (?) Rangers they introduced (even though we didn't really see much of them) was also interesting...

I think you'd find much more about Memory Alpha - it "only" collects canon information and behind the scenes stuff, and his story wasn't expanded on in canon, AFAIK. Memory Beta might have something on him.

I vote for (or should it be "against") the sequels because they were just such an inconsistent mess. TFA turns our hero accomplishments to ashes and turns them into failures in an attempt to copy the winning fomrula of A New Hope. TLJ nails the failure of our heroes down even further, kicks out...

Violet-Blue-Green-Yellow-Orange-Red-Pink-White. I agree that Bob was a bit over-the-top problematic for such a high stakes / high precision heist. I mean, the chemist was really good, but it should have been possible to get someone without Bob. Especially if Ray had planning this for so long...

I agree that some of the humor felt a bit... lazy. But it still looks fun. Is there a way to cross-post or something news like this as forum posts in the Media section? That's were I kinda expected a discussion about the trailer, and I only noticed the news article by accident. (I admit, I...

When wizards go rogue, fans go rouge!

Well, some people shirk on their civil obligations! :p

A lot of technological advancements lead to people losing jobs, but new kind of jobs being created, often jobs that weren't even thought of before. That didn't necessarily help the person that lost their job, because they were not qualified for the newly born job and might never be. But overall...

Yes, but without the capitals and the exclaimation mark. Though I am not that fond of the strong water theme the trailer suggests. The Avatar didn't seem to be aquatic before, it feels a bit weird. But I guess it could be another impressive artistic creation of an alien worldscape, and the...

Well, there are apparently two variations of the story of Perseus vs Medusa, in one he uses the mirror (or rather, a shield polished enough to act as mirror) to look at her so she cannot petrify him, in the other he uses the mirror so she looks at herself and turns to stone.

No, I did, I was just being facetious with one of my problems with Boba Fett as a vehicle for having an important story arc for The Mandalorian being put in a different show. And I could imagine people in fact not having seen Boba Fett and they will be confused. It will just never feel quite...

Bacta Tanks, I don't know what you're talking about. But why is Grogu not with Luke? Wasn't bringing him to his people the big plot point last season? Seems a big spoiler if Luke brings him back during the season or something. But maybe they must do it because people wouldn't watch without...

Some people here and elsewhere wonder if Luthien might be a former Jedi (or even Sith). It's possible, but here is my reasoning why within Andor's more "grounded" feeling it would be wrong: The time for Jedi to save the day comes later, after the ordinary people have done the basics. The...
