I actually miss how bad Nott was at checking for traps. Just the thought of this boozed out goblin getting progressively more injured as she tries to make her way through a dungeon was hilarious to me. Inspired a (shortlived) PC of mine

Maybe it would be less short-lived if you made CON its top stat... A CON based trap finder. He just finds traps by walking into them first and triggering them so that others don't have to. How would one make that build, I wonder. Go full "what the heck is that character?!" and just make a CON-based rogue that has a level of cleric or something so it can heal itself?

Your editing choices make the combat feel more fast-paced than the original. Everything is happening at once, multiple actions occurring against multiple targets. Yet the narrative of the fight persists. This is really good work!

I think I'll always miss the old, low-power Mighty Nein. Before Molly, the Pirates, and the War, it was a bunch of ragtag mercenaries finding a place in a strange world. It just felt so grounded.

I mean that's kinda the arc of a campaign. You start off weak, get better, become better than the average guy, so on and so forth until you're basically gods. (And then jump off a cliff and turn into a gold fish)

@@TaggedByTim Totally, I guess I'm biased to low-level play. Imagining the Nein with god-like power is more than a little scary.

They have all really matured and grown as characters though. I like how they've changed over time and have become more powerful. I hope they continue this campaign at some point because they're only at lvl 11 or 12. They still have a long way to go.

This animation is masterful. The action flowed really well, there was a great sense of movement and space, every character decision felt like it had weight. The style and designs for the characters have a great stylization, like a graphic novel. Nice use of color to make the spells and effects pop. Overall, this is fantastic!
