Really hope I can use some of the stuff you tell us when I start playing DnD with my brother

@@ousicousidamn you're totally right! I can't believe I missed that mistake in editing! I mess up the recording constantly, but usually notice this stuff before it goes live!! Thanks for pointing it out, it absolutely should be one hour, not one minute, I just can't say words right! I'll add it to my pinned comment

I'm making a list of shenanigans, where I include both your and my ideas to mess with the party and the DM. The chaotic gnome mage will be unstoppable

@@DnDShorts Lmao, when you brought up the rule lawyering for power word kill x polymorph you are right and wrong. As a dm can argue back that "aright you casted power word kill on the polymorphed bbeg, the form you gave it was a spider and so that form dies. But as the spell states when it dies or drops to 0 hp it reverts back to its normal form. Well the form is dead so he now reverts back to his previous form, what do you do now? move? or end your turn?" XD

Also fun fact the combo actually does not work like people always think/rule lawyer, when a creature is brought to 0 hp its not dead, only way for a creature to instadie is going to 0 then past its max hp, power word kill or variant rules. So due to this and the way polymorph is written power world kill can never instakill a polymorphed creature as they are only instakilling the form which reverts it back to how it was before hand. So a while its a fun idea to rule lawyer, not so fun when you reread raw, or the dm is the type "what you do, so can I" and uno reverse it back on the party

I’ll have to check but in Ancient Greek times they punished a knife for use in sacrifice by death by drowning. I think I read in a horrible history.

Humans were so stupid back then.

"I've heard of a kangaroo court, but this is ridiculous."

I read that as 'you are a different Beard."

@@angelusnielson7135 That too.

What exactly is MCDM?Is it some other channel?

@@leightenheimer I'll check him out later,thanks for letting me know. In other news,WotC is really shi'tty management,& you'd need a calculator to count the number of ways you can break this game with an exploit.

I wish I could witness the victory lap lol great story

Clever till you realize crabs have a swim speed, so better tie them to a rock

Nah, just polymorph then stone shape to encase them in rock. When they go from snail to normal sized while encased in rock I would argue they would take like 20d6 crushing damage but that is DM discretion. Either way, they are trapped in solid rock so suffocation is imminent. If you want to go the extra mile or they don't need to breath then toss out a coin, have someone else cast heat metal on it, and then encase them together. That is 20d8 fire damage plus 10d8 more per level you up cast it at. You can cast 4th level spells so we can assume at least 40d8 damage or 180 damage on average if no crushing bonuses.

@@kingwildcat6192000 FUUUUU, can crabs really swim !? Holy sheeeeeeet, I have been lied to for my whole life Edit : kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pbxmpq-qssDNcnk.html What the actual fuck XD

@@chefmanitou7244 honestly I didnt even know they did. Simply in an elemental water campaign that Im waiting for a friend to start I discovered this. Im gonna play a crazy lizardfolk chef who is a druid (shaman) and was looking for a low cr beast that could breath underwater and saw that in 5e they had a swim speed XD, thanks for the vid it was funny to watch

@@chefmanitou7244 only certain species of crab can swim. There are others that cannot.

I am a DM and I would try to cook them as chicken from dinner

@@xinahliaofthefeywild8985 You sucessfully sneak away as a chicken - only to meet the stern ,corpulent housewife of the Town Judge -with Advantage to Grapple checks and guess what she's preaping for Dinner! - Roll for Initiative!

Better yet, strap him to something that explodes like a fireball. So BOOM! followed by tadaah! Sudden monster after a fireball

@@ctakitimu sudden monster is my new favorite spell

Thanks and I think you’re right! I’m hoping that ~the algorithm~ will stick around for a little longer but it’s only a matter of time before it kicks my ass to the curb, so I need to be ready

Like Druid?

I guess it could be seen that way, but I was talking about a whole another Ben Ten Homebrew class I didn't fully like.

Thats so smart

The rules for suffocation are "When a creature runs out of breath or is choking, it can survive for a number of rounds equal to its Constitution modifier (minimum of 1 round). At the start of its next turn, it drops to 0 hit points and is dying, and it can't regain hit points or be stabilized until it can breathe again.". So the creature will drop to 0 hit points and then change back before it dies completely. Once back into the original form they can attempt to escape because the bag can be opened from the inside (twitter.com/jeremyecrawford/status/1034580941383954433?lang=en). If latched closed or something then they can destroy the bag and get ejected into the astral. This is clear in the BoH description "If the bag is overloaded, pierced, or torn, it ruptures and is destroyed, and its contents are scattered in the Astral Plane.". It has limited size and has inside walls which is why overloading rips it. If you want to do this particular shenanigan then you would need a Bag of Devouring. That said I recommend that you polymorph and then stone shape to encase them in rock. When they go from snail to normal sized while encased in rock I would argue they would take something like 20d6 crushing damage but that is DM discretion. Either way, they are trapped in solid rock so suffocation is imminent. If you want to go the extra mile or they don't need to breath then toss out a coin, have someone else cast heat metal on it, and then encase them together. That is 20d8 fire damage plus 10d8 more per level you up cast it at. You can cast 4th level spells so we can assume at least 40d8 damage or 180 damage on average if no crushing bonuses.

The problem with this is that a creature can technically force their way out of a bag of holding. So once they drop the fodder form you gave them, they'd simply pop out of the bag 99% of the time, as the check isn't particularly hard for something medium or larger. Also, if they're too big, you might be down a bag of holding when they revert. I think it still sends them into the astral sea, so that's something. But if you have a bag of devouring, that's probably better to use instead... In fact, that is probably the best use for this type of polymorph abuse. As, at worst, you lose a bag of devouring and they get sent into the astral sea.

Unceremonious, but effective. Imagine the puzzlement by the recipient: " Sir , did you order a hamster with a Spellbook ?" 🔥🔥🔥 ) FIREBALL(🔥🔥🔥

Agreed

Agreed

Ayy glad you enjoying it!!

Agreed

@@BLUEBOYISLEDGE 😂 thanks I didn’t notice. It’s fixed now!

That's Untitled Goose Game.

🤣 like it , but as a DM, wouldn't allow actual character death.. That would make Polymorph a one save or die killer spell. Disproportionately powerful for it's level.

You could use it to trick someone into thinking they’re fighting wildshape A, then keep it up for a bit, then drop it, or just polymorph into your wildshape so you have more hp.

Was it the wife landlord or her husband?

you're doing great don't worry about it!!

That's a concentration spell but it takes years

yeah I recorded late at night and said minute not hour! I put it in the pinned comment but sadly the mistake is there to stay

If you don't have warcaster and you use it in combat, 1 minute might even be optimistic anyway love the videos!

I'll look into it but sounds cool!!

One problem, Bag of Holding says extra dimensional space created by an item, meaning RAW, rope trick will not destroy a bag of holding. Additionally, it requires spare bags of holding, but there is a solution to that. Level 2 Artificers can replicate the bag of holding with the replicate magic item infusion. So, if the DM allows it, this is an amazing trick

@@theaspie3121 That would be a problem if Mike Merls didnt already confirm that this can open an astral gate! Here check it out: www.google.com/amp/s/www.sageadvice.eu/if-i-cast-rope-trick-and-intentionally-throw-a-bag-of-holding-into-it-can-i-get-to-the-astral-plane/amp/

@@teku3985 oh wow. I didn’t know that. Thanks. That is also terrifying because if you cast rope trick and have a bag of holding on you, either you don’t get to make use of the spell yourself, or you leave the bag behind, assuming the spell is used for hiding or something like that. Or you forget you have a bag of holding and the whole party gets a fun trip to the astral plane

@@theaspie3121 Lol! Had this problem come up a few times. But because I had a nice dm, I was able to find a way around it. I hung my bag if holding on like a stick outside of the rope trick and used a mage hand to grab health potions from my bag. Cantrips are awesome

Just polymorph the furry. It will naturally role seduction on that Dire wolf.

it reverts, but it doesn't un-kill it.
