XP to Level 3 Thanks :)

Hey Jacob you should cover the Grim Hollow book. I just bought it and I'd love to hear your in-depth thoughts on it. Edit: Specifically the transformations, non-class progression systems and setting itself.

“...hilarious” I said with a mocking glibness.

@@collindouglas8188 I pre-ordered months ago and would also like to hear about Grim Hollow. gettng antsy

@@tonyk7000 It's out now. You can get it. The transformations are awesome.

Brilliant

That’s a really good idea for a one shot and I might use that

@Smooth Luigi Davvy Chappy doesn't like tables. He prefer things that rest bottom games instead of top games.

Jesus E Sanchez tables rest your stuff relaxes your feet eat your dog I might have the rong table

Smooth Luigi yeah just checked it’s a mimic

Why'd you leave the keys upon the table? You wanted to

That they do.

Thanks for my next character

I also don't really understand that idea. If AC is your bane, use enemies that can cast bless or force an intelligence saving throw on the fighter. AC ain't everything.

I have a solution: Fireball.

@@LazyVideosGAME also at low level your fighter will still be untouchable without magic items, and when he would get (according to his opinion) a whopping +1 to AC, everyone can hit him half of the time, so a +1 to AC won't do much.

Laughs in level 4 fighter with 21 AC without any magic items

@@Kylekashi how?

*sweats in level 4 artificer with 23 AC

Me, DMing a fighter with 22 ac and a war forged cleric who has a max ac of 25: ….. They are level five

@@johngalt5166 Smells something like... Mage Armor from Eldritch Knight, with 20 Dexterity (easily doable if the race increases dex, and at level 4 they have an ASI to help out), with a Shield and Defensive fighting style. 13 + 5 + 2 + 1 = 21 ac Though, that depends on if your DM counts mage armor as being usable with the Defense fighting style. If not, you need 4k gold for Plate Armor, and at least 15 strength. With that, all you'd need on hand is a shield and the Defense fighting style to hit 21 with no magic items whatsoever.

he said it was on his patreon

@@herrabanani and as they said, the tables are not there

@@herrabanani what tier are they?

jesse scheepmaker He said free so public I guess.

This is what happens when you stay up to 4am finishing a video. Sorry everyone, they are up now. www.patreon.com/posts/40857187

Seconded

I can’t either

Same here. Jacob lies to us!! Hexing scrolls looks cool though!

Mee too

Also same

"My-nut" seeing 😳

@@DRida64 are you implying your nuts are so small you need a magnifying glass to find them?

@@codebracker nah, the goggles give a sort of blacklight effect to be able to see the nut

I mean, at that point isn't the game over? They can live in paradise where not even Ao could touch them. That's when you say the whole group gets tires of adventuring and have them roll new characters!

Mindless Scientist They can also train the he** out of themselves, they just stay there until they reach max level and can go around without any troubles or fear in the world (except for a tarasque).

Even apart from the GM having the option to reroll (or just pick) items on the table that they don't want in the campaign, the Rod of Security isn't particularly overpowered. It's powerful, certainly, but not too much. It gets you and your buddies to safety for an amount of time limited by how many there are. Assuming you're taking just a party of 5 people, you can stay in there for a very long time and rest back to full, plot and prepare, etc. They want to hide in there for a month? Fine, the GM can come up with all sorts of consequences for when they come back out because time marches on. Time still passes in the outside world, so your enemies will also be able to rest, plot and prepare with the added bonus of still being able to enact their plots on the outside world, and maybe even lay traps for when you come back. Furthermore, you cannot use it again until 10 days have passed after you leave. In adventuring terms, it's something you save as a last resort panic button that doesn't solve any of your long-term problems. It's really really cool, but it's not game over. Training is an optional rule to unlock the benefits of a level you've already gained, not to gain more levels on top. For whoever is interested, here are the numbers by the book. For each roll on the treasure hoard, the chance of getting a Rod of Security is: 0% from CR 0-4; 0.04% from CR 5-10. .5% from CR 11-16; .4% at CR 17+. Taking into account the recommended number of times they roll on the tables over the course of a campaign, those odds are upgraded to; 0%; .71756%; 5.8377%; 3.15556%. The odds of them getting 1 Rod of Security ever from level 1-20 is therefore 9.4634%, heavily weighted towards mid-to-late in the game.

I kinda disagree as some of the lowest prices you can find are about a few thousand and most common magic items can be 13,0000gp just because. In a new game I'm in the dm started us at lvl 10 and we all had a budget to buy stuff and we could not afford almost all of the stuff the list.

@@christophercrafte I can see that being pretty frustrating. But I don't sell magic items in stores in my campaign save for potions or spell scrolls and similar one time use items. The prices from the pdf just help to understand the value of some magic items. I find the Uncommon/Rare/VeryRare system in the DMG doesnt necessarily equate to magic item "power levels" so to speak. Cheers!

Ehhh... My DM used it on a couple occasions, and the prices were so wonky that I looked into it myself. Marvelous Pigments: effectively unlimited wealth, bypass any door/chest/lock/wall/most other mundane obstacles, trivialize anything that isn't combat or social, generally with enough charges to see the party through an entire campaign. Price: 200gp Gloves that let you pick locks better: 5000gp If you're going to use it, take it with a BIG grain of salt.

@@DrakeRichter yeah I agree. like after the dm heard some of these he said that a bag of holding is only 300gp not 8000gp

@@christophercrafte 300 gp ? Damn, just buy 2 of those for 600 gp and send any boss the DM will send you on the Astral plane by puting a bag of holding in another bag of holding. At least making it 8000gp douse the "offensive potential" of bags of holding

Eldridge night with plate armor a shield and the shield spell is a lot of AC

A Kensei monk with bracers of defense is a lot of AC

Sane magic items prices has some very curious ideas on what constitutes “game changing”

@@discopete117 Player: Why is the Broom of flying 8000gp, it's just an uncommon magic item. DM: Ok sure *Prices it 500gp* Player: *Buys Broom by selling looted plate armor* Next Encounter Player: Ok now I get on my Broom of Flying, go up 220ft, and cast Eldritch Blast at double range DM with no enemies that can hit the player without disadvantage on range attacks: After the fight your broom suddenly catches on fire now a smoldering pile of ash

@@worldatwar956 Isn't that a bit of a strawman? As I have seen in my games a broom of flying is absolutely game changing, but one example of a well priced item doesn't discount the idea that some of the items considered "game changing" aren't (admittedly he should've given some examples but my point still stands).

I suspect a new 6th ed will be out in 2 years or so.

MrBizteck with the popularity of 5e I highly doubt that, though. A whole new system would shake up a lot of the community that’s been built up in the last few years and alienate newer players. Besides, there’s not much that can be easily changed about 5e without going back to the 3.5 way of tons of rules and the likes, further alienating a lot of the people that 5e attracted

@@MrBizteck Lol

It still has great tips for conducting the game But its resources are VERY restrict.

The tables in the DMG are more guidelines, my tip is to roll the gold and how much of each items they get from certain table, but then instead of rolling in the tables just pick what you thing makes more sense. For instance says you roll loot and has to pick 3 items from the table A, so cause is not that hard of a dungeon and the party has a bag of holding instead just give them two potions of healing a 1st lvl spell scroll

Rafael CM thanks for the idea i will try it out

@@jakebotallrich4055 You're welcome! Also as is said on the video kinda ignore the individual loot for creatures that don't make sense to have gold on them. Which is mostly beasts, Aberrations, Elementals, Celestials, Fiends and Plants. For constructs I say they have some gilded inlays worked on them that the party can try to recover and sell, oozes the coins are floating inside them along the remainders of their last meal, Dragons will usually have a hoard so you don't have to worry and if they haven't (like wyrmlings) the party can harvest their scales, Fey and Monstrosities I work case-to-case but they can have it as jewelry they wear or in their stomach respectively. Giant, undead and humanoids will have the currency on them (Undead being they had it on them when reanimated).

Rafael CM i will definitely take what u said to my games i will just make the loot them get just so i make sure that don’t get to over powered but thanks again i definitely agree with a lot of stuff u said

nope, can't either. maybe it's not up yet?

Same here

Okay good I am not crazy I couldn't find them as well
