Well, bringing didn't accidentally lead to that happening. He just didn't know what new feet she picked after lovelling up . She actually did not have alert In the previous battle. In adventuring party she Talks about she decided to choose it Because her current combos already took up her action economy, each turn pretty easily. And there was the chance she would have either switch bows ammo mid battle ( Of course, she never had to because she plans so well and has those flow charts ) Put optimum damage with her build . So peeking a new feat that was passive was a no brainer. If you were initiative is higher than the rangers It's probably some rogue build trying to sneak attack you. Alert makes you immune to surprise, Enemies don't attack with advantage on you for being unseen by you, And plus five initiative for the hell of it. An arcane trickster like Charity Blythe never stood a chance. Yo I just realized that the alert ability even ties into which Eidolon chooses her. How are you gonna surprise someone who is literally always on time. 🤯. I don't even think that's intentional because no one talked about it, but it is so perfect and thematic.

I love that Zac sets up the rug pull by saying "OK, I'm scared, I'm compelled..." just in case saying Charmed and Frightened reminds Brennan that he has Mindless Rage. He didn't have to say anything at all but knew it'd be funnier with a proper setup. Earned the victory without compromising the bit. The hero we need.

@trailblazer225 4 ай бұрын

I think he was also making it seem like, "Well, I'm working for the bad guy right now because I'm feared AND charmed, so to be fair and not metagame I have to go all out to hurt my allies just like I would with the enemies, and going all out includes raging." So he's saying "I'm scared and compelled," as a justification for why he is raging when it hypothetically is bad for him and his allies so that Brennan doesn't suspect anything, only to reveal that actually he did it because it's GOOD for them

While I love all these examples, Zach's move is special. All the others are "I innocuously gifted/allowed something and the players found an unexpectedly good use for it"; an awesome feeling, to be sure, but it happens to every DM now and then. Zach, on the other hand, baited somebody into doing something stupid...which is supposed to be the DM's job.

Moments like this are my favorite to both watch and also to be a part of (on either side of the DM screen). Just pure dopamine moments. Some other notable times this happened are Antiope Jones with Alert, Fabian's eye patch in the goldenrod fight. Also general shout out to Saccharina using lightning/thunder spells to beat like 3 encounters pretty much single-handedly .

When people talk about "metagaming", this is an example of the type I most dislike. Emily tells Zac the best way to socially manipulate the DM into providing an in-game mechanical benefit. It's like when she bragged about her tactic in Operation Slippery Puppet, where she intentionally shared essential information quickly, while others were talking, so that the DM wouldn't register it fully.
