Is 5E tabletop borked in high levels too? Are there many reasons for this?

Did she throw them to him by "accident" or what? Hard for me to put into words how on brand it is for Rudeus and friends to buy a slave girl so they can use her to make figurines.

I don't know if any of you read the CRPG blog thread or if you remember from old BG2. BG2 had an extremely autistic and deep amount of spell triggers, protections, and so on. But its very complex and the base game doesn't make use of it. But mods do. There's this whole ecosystem of difficulty...

I mean BG2 had all that shit. Why is balance so important?

I mean I don't expect something profound. BG2 was a stereotypical DND campaign. Be forced to run away from home for some reasons. Go on adventures. Meet weird characters who are good or bad. Slowly uncover the big bad. Become more powerful. Go on more quests and do more weird shit. Go cool...

Well From has resisted it due to the parent company. Some big buyers like Microsoft will come around with a fat check eventually.

I just want to say that it is very very rare that I play anything and in the first Act already know I will immediately be playing a second run through before I touch any other game.

Why is Sylphie such an aspy that she pretends not to know who Rudeus is?

Act 1 Zhentarim:

I am going to take on a project to make my PC quieter. My dead quiet macbook makes my gaming PC sound like a jet engine by comparison. The heat it generates is noticeable in my office an don't like it. Am I just getting old?

Spoiler that shit nerd and find out next playthrough!

How's that working out for you?

Also yeah after some testing dual wield is indeed trash because all it does is rob you of your bonus action which of course has way more versatility than an off hand attack does. Assassin is actually quite strong you just need to make sure you initiate fights with him in sneakity sneak mode...

Act 1:

The Gith have a ultra disciplined warrior society (think like Sparta) that's also mega xenophobic. They really, really, really hate mind flayers due to being enslaved by them for centuries. Everyone else is just slightly more tolerable.

Stop using Vulkan.

I keep telling people this, and so far no one has listened to me. At least provably. @Arden here's the game: Learn Salesforce on the official resources (free) and very good. You can get as many free environments for practicing as you want. Total sandboxes just for you. Just need a computer...

By all accounts I am a slightly autistic nerd who avoids talking to people. But I have climbed well up the corpo life just being good at technical stuff. SFDC does not require minimal bog standard super nerd abilities like programming. Just the ability to use the platform and use "declarative...

Largest CRM enterprise platform on earth.

Why does she hate you so much? As I keep telling people. Learn Salesforce and you'll be in a six figure job in under 3 years if you work at it.

You need Jesus brother.

Battlemaster or Champion or does it matter?

Anyone running Rangers? Is Gloomstalker or Hunter actually decent? I don't want to go with the Beast Master pet class one.

UPS driver jobs are extremely coveted. You wont get one applying off the street. Most drivers had to wait years until another driver retired,died, or moved until they got that position. Then they keep it forever as the pay is quite good. Took a friend of mine like 6 years to get a driver job...

One thing about turn based here is that movement is absolute king of everything. So the bonuses you get from being a dwarf with a 2meter less movement per turn don't make up for that loss. Bet your ass my 2nd run paladin is going to be a Wood elf with 10.5M base movement a turn. This doesn't...

Playthrough 2 will be Dark Urge Paladin for maximum Lulz.

It does kind of annoy me though in that you don't really want multiple charisma characters in the same party if you can avoid it. Since you can only have a party of 4 you need to be more careful about who you bring with you.

Also nice trick I learned. Pick up a few candles and in the fights drop them on the ground. You can use them to ignite weapons and do extra damage. This kind of silly shit is why this game is so good.

Restarting as Warlock now that I have more of a feel for the characters and builds. Will just run Karlach for my Barbarian. Was still in Act 1 (like 12 hours maybe). Much better idea on how to play now.

While its an interesting narrative element it is kind of annoying to hold onto junk just so you arent forced to give up anything actually good. Not that gold has been any particular issue for me I guess.

I am currently rolling with: Barbarian Berserker (PC) Gale (Wild Magic Sorcerer) Lore Bard Shadowheart (still in Trickery as I've been trying to make it work. It just isn't very useful and I will need to respec her).

No, class changes do not affect character stories at all. Confirmed by dev.

Lore bard?

I kinda want to restart my run now that I have more of a feel for the game. Not to the end of Act 1 yet so nothing lost really.

This is one where its weird because most of them are the right level for 4 and one is level 6 for some reason. Making it annoying.

My PC is a duergar and I have the amulet. But I think I may need to make Lae'zel into a rogue or something (currently she's a bard) for this reason.The AI on range mobs seems to immediately target casters and stuff too. Which is annoying.

Well as I recall with DOS they never released the dungeon master editor they originally intended to. They probably won't this time either. But the mods will be great.

When I realized I could drop chandeliers on people I was like.... ok that's awesome. Enemies with only range attacks and lots of movement can straight up suck a dick though. I've lost most encounters like this until I get really lucky or figure something out (like LOS on the map forcing them to...
