    Level Up (A5E) Removing Pointless Death (+)

    Do they get opportunities to retreat? I have a DM who TPKs groups and we are super careful about who and how we engage enemies and are ready to retreat if things are going poorly. Does your group even have a chance to realize things are going badly? Knowing when to retreat is a tricky balance

    Level Up (A5E) Removing Pointless Death (+)

    It’s a dialogue between the DM and the player. The thing to remember is even if you concede and maintain control of the narrative you still lose. Let’s say you are fighting ghouls and the stakes are character death. Meaning the ghouls will take an extra action to do a killing blow when you...

    D&D 5E (2024) Does Innate Sorcery grant True Strike advantage?

    I was looking at produce flame. The target is ‘self’ but it specifically notes you make a spell attack - not a melee attack. The wording for true strike would have been better if they’d used that language: With a melee weapon, make a melee spell attack against an enemy. The weapon’s damage...

    D&D 5E (2024) Does Innate Sorcery grant True Strike advantage?

    Unlike a spell like fire bolt which targets an enemy, The range of true strike is “Self” so, no it doesn’t give you advantage to attack someone else. All the spell does is enhance your ability to attack by letting you attack with your spellcasting ability and change the damage to radiant if you...

    He cast protection from energy on Tym and Vitus cast resist energy on Tym. He has a second stone shape. With the Altar gone, could he try to block off this hallway?

    He reads lips Yeah, but people are dying. You are right though, Vitus would want to return it. But he’d also want a reward for returning it. Also, did you read my thoughts on how to retreat this round??

    @Knightfall Vitus speaks Ancient Ticinum (for some reason) - Would the Green Knight understand that language?

    We could sell it back. We need money. Or we can use it for a spell component (raise dead) or a FORBIDDANCE spell.

    Kulan: Knightfall's Crisis in Bluffside Game [OOC]

    @MetaVoid I mentioned this in the discord as a possible way to flee: If everyone delays until Grattas goes on initiative 2, he can open the door and everyone can run or double move through the door. Otherwise, we are here for another round. A lot of us go after the enemies anyways so there’s...

    (5.24 PBP) Vault Redux (OOC) Fitz's Refresher

    It’s hard to know if you’re serious. The min/maxer in me wanted to attack. Story-wise, even if Urgan is letting Merrick know where she is, it’s not like he’s wielding a precision weapon. Use your free hand next round to cast light. Then we are in business.

    (5.24 PBP) Vault Redux (OOC) Fitz's Refresher

    it's always weird to play when your character can't see anything but the player can. I know technically, I could attack Valendra (she'd within reach) but it seems unsafe to attack while my ally is grappling her - besides, how do I target the right person in the dark???

    (5.24 PBP) Vault of the Dracolich (IC) Redux

    [/td] [/TR] [/TABLE] [/spoiler] Merrick swung his polearm where he'd felt the polearm make contact, hoping to connect more solidly - he hoped he wouldn't hit anyone else. He hit nothing. The wizardess must have moved. Having a dwarf and an orc was advantageous in the dark but there was...

    Level Up (A5E) Removing Pointless Death (+)

    How it works in FATE, is two fold: If the enemy drops you, they get to narrate/dictate how they took you out. That could range from death to capture to permanent damage/injury or letting you love but them succeeding on whatever mission they were fighting you over. However, at any time, you...

    So what's the deal with solo gaming?

    Ironsworn is pretty cool and designed for 1 or more players

    Kulan: Knightfall's Crisis in Bluffside Game [OOC]

    I was thinking. Forbiddqnce is a 6th level cleric spell that prevents dimensional travel. It’s pretty expensive but it might be worth trying to convince the high level clerics to cast it on the entrance of the labrynth. Or better yet, find out where Phelix’s gate is and lock it down. It’s...
