How?

How do you do this so fast?

Dude, HOW r u so fast?

dude you got the timestone or something???

I think he time stamps the Twitch VOD and has them ready for the upload.

If Caduceus was unconscious by it then Nott would have let it fly lol

HA! I read this comment just as Nott was saying those words. Perfect.

@@greghercher2068 For the third time that would happen lmao

Maybe something more like, "hmm, that's interesting... yeah... mmm... cool".

"This is nice."

This needs to happen now @Criticalrole

Lmfao

I once had a character with a passive perception that was so fucking high (Pathfinder can get ridiculous with bonuses) that the DM decided to start treating it as being able to see beyond reality sometimes. She started seeing ghosts and echoes from the past. She could perceive all sorts of weird stuff that was useful lore-wise, but started to mess up with her head a little bit. It's SO cool to be able to bring your character's characteristics to the game beyond purely mechanics ^^ Something similar could be done with Caduceus, because some perception scores are almost magical xD

It took them years, but Laura and Sam finally broke through to him.

Sam said "Dong?" before Matt did.

And doing it AT LAURA

@@tomasroque3338 It wouldn't that odd had Laura homebrewed a spell called "Dong" for Jester.

Maybe she switched to worshipping the Pelor the Dongfather. ;)

Exactly correct

Sounds like something stuck with him when that happened. A little devil on his shoulder that points to what he should burn next,

oh DANG

That is a nice catch. One of the many many things I love about Critical Role is just how many tiny details there are and that these players remember and respond to them, even if it is a year later.

Thank you for this comment!! I knew I had heard that line before and was wracking my brains trying to recall which media that belonged to! Never suspected it was a campaign callback, lol

In the Search for Grog, Percy did 249 damage in a single round, including 156 with a single attack. But he was higher level.

@@SylviusTheMad Despite the flash and utility of spellcasters, martial characters tend to do more damage. Rogues, fighters, and Barbarians get alot of damage with their class abilities. Paladins as well with divine smite.

@@christianholbrook2686 That's certainly true in 4E and 5E. As soon as D&D embraced the direct damage model for rogues (rather than the non-combat utility model of 3E), rogues have to do massive single-target damage to make any sense. And with the addition of things like Action Surge, now Fighters do much the same. I kind of miss the simplicity of 2nd edition AD&D.

@@SylviusTheMad I played Pathfinder before I played D&D so I get what you mean. What I always liked about martial characters is their consistency. Once the wizard runs out of spells or if an enemy resists certain magics it's bad news, but a fighter can always kill with a sword. Plus fighters back in Pathfinder got a feat every level, so they could do just about anything in combat.

@@christianholbrook2686 "Despite the flash and utility of spellcasters, martial characters tend to do more damage" This seems natural to me. Of course martial characters should do more damage, since they *don't have flash and utility* to their classes... If spellcasters were flashier, had more utility/versatility, *and* did more damage, no one would play a martial character!

Facepalms with extreme pride.

I think the idea is that if they know hes in the prison , he's probably not going anywhere so they can take their time getting to him

Marish/Keyleth: "We're good with cliffs"

Traveler: "Ah, Jester my wonderful wayward child, I couldn't be more proud!"

I guess the temptation of the Dreadnaught was too much.

If anyone knows what the crazy/hot scale is, the Mighty Nein play jump rope with that line every week 😉😂

There's always a big cliffhanger decision at the end of the session when they're loopy and exhausted. They shouldn't be given such responsibility in that state!

That is hilarious! Seriously underappreciated comment!

@@Codin259 thank you!

DUUUUUDE 😂🤣😂🤣

Travis lives for Matt's scary sounds.

Yan Tse yes it is I think I saw actual real terror in Sam’s eyes

I hope they all get fucked up or Jester misses Traveller Con for such stupid decision lmao

TinnedWaffles no if jester misses traveler-con we all quit

He has always been the voice of reason even when he was Scanlan.

@@TinnedWaffles Halas was using the Dreadnought's Donjon as a workroom. That is like a nuclear war bunker. They'll get fucked up bad, and may lose another member of M9

It was literally the most frustrating thing

@@squigglearmsfirst time binging and SAME OH MY GOD Also, how many times have they been thrown into a room with NO IMMEDIATE WAY TO RETURN??? At least three of these rooms have been like that. “We’ll pop in, see what it looks like, then pop out” is one of the dumbest things this group has ever proposed and that’s genuinely saying something. I love them dearly but this was a bad call.

Quite possibly the stupidest thing they've done to date - for all they knew, losing contact with Frumpkin could have been because he died, or he could have been brought to a lethal plane. The fact that it was only Sam of all people, playing Nott/Veth of all PCs, that was hesitant to do the insane thing is kind of absurd (although, the only PC that it seems truly out of character to do this was Fjord, and Travis is willing to completely break character for potential cool shit like this). This could have easily been a TPK Keyfish moment.

@@Ninjewdi Yeah yeah as characters it's a terrible call. But the players are making a great call to have fun. Travis even mentions how much fun is having in the Happy Fun Ball. Its so great to watch

​@@dr.sleepytime5271And yet you'll find so many people who trash so many of their decisions because it's not "optimal". Who gives a shit as long as they're having fun?

Yeah, somebody really need to recalibrate their sense of reality...

Nah, they know Matt shweet on exploration

I mean Obans over all scheme is to let the chained one out but they don’t know that so to them they think he’s just keeping the war going opening abyssal Gates. However they also know until the permaheart was destroyed they didn’t have a chance to kill the laughing hand.

Honestly, I've been keeping track of time since they traveled back to the Empire in Episode 78. I've been growing more and more concerned that they're going to miss it

@@Graycata Matt wouldn't make them miss it, it's been such a big deal since like episode 40. People just get anxious because 8(ish) weeks seems like an entire journey, but remember they can teleport to several locations now, really cutting down travel time.

@@KingNefiiria Making them miss Travelercon absolutely sounds like something Matt would do. He has a history of having a world that keeps moving regardless of what the party is doing.

"By the gods... they're worse than Vox Machina were..."

@@cussundriakneal9904 I can see that her saying that lol

@@cussundriakneal9904 this had me laughing for like a solid 5 mins, thank you

@@cussundriakneal9904 told this once: VM could wipe the floor with M9 even if tin in the same way the gang runs them :)

@@user-lt6ho5kt7v they didn't though

It's especially funny since she's not the one who gets kills usually lol

@@blingwraith6951 I swear she's gotten like 80% of the last few episodes though, jester on a mad one 😂

Referring to cure wounds "I don't know if I took..." But she never seems to be without inflict wounds.

I was throwing “Acid Splash” at it while Fjord was slicing it up “yes I was pretending I was playing my Deep Gnome Artificer in the room, you know you imagine your character playing with them, don’t judge”

I was like, “but she used Hellish Rebuke, it shouldn’t have regenerated!” But I also forgot that hers does cold damage, so of course it did lol

I didn't notice!! Thank you

Portokali 4:14:30

Honestly I think they're in shock when he makes jokes because they're terrified of him.

Ou blho 7t ugh

He seemed to look expectantly at someone to laugh. If only he could see this comment with over 1.2 thousand likes because the joke was hillarious and adorable.

Or really dull if they just get stuck in there with no way out.

I was waiting for them to turn back. And then I had a thought it's the bleeping mighty nein. They're going to flip and flop and then walk back into that door and walk into the dreadnaught.

@@toshomni9478 Unless Caleb, Jester or Cadueces has planeshift, they're pretty fucked, because from what I've read, you can't escape without some planar transport.

If Mr. Magoo was a group of people.

Nin Brannon you know in retrospect we should have seen this one coming

Allura too good for this world 🥰🥰

I believe she believes it's completely possible that something in there could affect the world

As a very technical person who prefers to confirm things before committing to any declarative statement, I would have probably done the exact same thing.

@@HaLarryUs1 She's also a fancy archmage, at some level all wizards get a bit loose when it comes to reality and all that. She could have actually missed something crazy outside, or maybe the magic ball of wizard horrors did something wacky. it's all possible

Didn't Fjord joke about having to fight a Dreadnaught earlier in C2?

To replace the one he destroyed

And he never uses any except Frumpkin 🙄

Aphrothena 1221 WHY WOULD YOU HURT ME LIKE THIS?!?!?!?!

Hope he doesn't burn this one, too

Sometimes a family is a wizard, a fey “cat”, his unseen servant, the shadow of himself from a decaying timeline, and a lil robot boi

I read this before I got to that part. Way funnier now

I feel like Travelercon should be sooner then Matt said, unless he subtlety moved it back for the group

Given that the Traveler is an archfey demigod who came from the Feywild I think he will understand. The Feywild operates in a similar way with time anyway.

Playing catch-up, and the recommended video after this is Web DM's video on the Astral Dreadnought.

Honestly funnier after traveler con

Yeh

My character when having the CN Rouge summon demons that appear right behind the defenseless shaman

and real life

Time stamp?

Darklord6832 lol

Same

Me too, either that or "You suffer... yeah you suffer"

So glad I’m not the only one who thinks this every time.

Every. Time. "You suffer..." and I'm like "Damn right I suffer, I suffer watching the M9 planning"

That's what he should do if any of the party get hit by a power word pain

HAha, thats fuckin great

Latre Hughes He just has really bad heart burn all the sudden, and doesn’t know why.

Obann looking at the laughing hand like, wtf man, you are supposed to be imortal

obann: you good? yasha, get sugar water

I like to imagine the Hand finally just stopping laughing, his voice reverting to how Ganix spoke and just saying "Finally, thank you", before keeling over and finally dying.

"I'm gonna stop you right there"

*ashley johnson voice* STOP IT

*Allura casts slow on herself* yes? Allura speaking...

OMG classic

😂

ROFL

Accurate lol

Way to fitting for this group

I read that as “trombones” for some reason

We already have. The nuclear graves have just such kinds of warnings.

Dry because the heat of fire evaporated all moisture.

Yep, you just break free (create new account) and continue exactly as you did before

Or you can use Dunamancy to create Throwaway accounts and keep your primary account insulated.

nope

i know you commented this 7-8 months ago, but when was this? i just finished the episode and do not remember hearing that

@@JGBarco around 46:25

@@robertsmith36 ahhhhhhh, thank you thank you

It's funny because people keep saying Critical Role is scripted. I honestly don't know why they'd think that

When the door wouldn't open and Jester screams "friend" is when I cracked up. the timing was just perfect.

Is that how he is so ancient?

That would've worked, but it only destroyed 3 of Matt's protective leather wristbands.

@@Satsujinki1973 perfection

Goth necromancy.

Oren Montgomery that is a repetitive redundancy 😝

I mean, they'd be a lot smarter if they were exiting the ball to rest.

@@MrLordDarlington Only caveat to that is that when they enter the ball the ball resets and reconfigures, so they can't be sure they'll enter in that same entry chamber each time (or even be sure that they'll end up anywhere on the map, let alone a safe path).

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY Would you do that?!?!!?

Classic trope though. He thinks the arch mage is going to have super complex glyphs, but he ends up over thinking it. The novices take the glyphs at face value and figure them out.

And the whole place IS a trap for magically inclined and knowledgable people...

I think it's a bit like when you spend too much time in a high-level maths class, and you go to help a younger sibling with their homework and you get 7+6 wrong

In fairness, none of them were taking a magic approach, they were all doing investigation checks. So it wasn't them outdoing him in magic, they were outdoing him in puzzle-solving/pattern recognition. it makes me wonder if the arcana approach might've had a different DC, because nobody in the party but Caleb actually has really high arcana.

@@thebeef7238 With keen mind Caleb should have auto succeeded or at least had a lower DC for pattern recognition.

Trying to hear what Travis says afterwards and then Laura crazy laughs?

The Mighty Nine: Warns itself against going into the Dreadnought Room.

This was one of the dumbest decisions I’ve ever witnessed in all my years of D&D. I love this show. 😂

Sam Riegel, the human embodiment of Pure Chaos: SWEET JESUS FUCK NO The rest of the gang: yeET

@@Felipesnac Just them doing what is fun instead of what is smartest is what I live for

Idk if I enjoy the excitement of this decision or if it just straight up annoys me more lol. There is a war and a possible demonic invasion that they have been stressing the importance of for weeks with nearly a month having passed at this and a mission to save an ally and they throw it all out the window to for the sake of the players own curiousity. I mean Travis and Taliesen straight up threw out the character personalities of Fjord and Caduceus and started using their own lol

And chairs

The final boss is still waiting in Charis.

There was that one time that they walked into a room fairly similar to this and ended up fighting a rug/carpet so it's not that suprising.

Vox machina hated doors

@@BigggusDikkkus The M9 had some serious issues with doors in recent episodes though. Remember the golem in the tower?

the pull of dangerous side quests gets to everyone eventually

That really is sweet.

someone above had the same sort of comment. like, thats just common courtesy (at least, i think it should be.) if that makes you think matt is so incredible (not disagreeing, mind), you must be around a lot of terrible and selfish people. and im sorry for your pain.

“The poor baby” We stan Laura Bailey and Jester

then she should unchain it and give it water if she's so nice, lol

@@Contradae I find it a bit weird that you consider someone having empathy something to make fun of.

@Confusing Zark seems like you don't know what empathy is or how it works. It's the innate ability to feel yourself in the other's place, and you can't control it (though it says nothing about whether or not you're a good person). Some people can't even think about others suffering, even if those others did horrendous things. Some people won't bat an eye at footage of someone being tortured. True, an astral Dreadnought is no puppy; but the sight of anything chained up and unable to see, move or eat for the rest of their existence is horrifying.

@Confusing Zark what part of "can't control who you feel bad for" do you not understand about empathy? I'm not at all saying they should save the cosmic death terror here, I agree with you on that, there's no need to escalate this into an argument. Fact of the matter is, Laura isn't seeing the planet-sized abomination made of every single one of the world's worst nightmares right in front of her: human abstraction and imagination can only go so far. All she's been told is there's a huge monster and it's in a horrible place, and her character is one to feel for things that are in bad places, and so she acts in kind.

The character sheets are readily available. Nott does indeed have a higher investigation score by one.

I remember when the campaign started Caleb had the best Investigation by far, but he has since been out classed by Beau and Nott as their classes focus on that skill.

Can't wait to see all the quirkie characters they will come up with!

It's been years, but do you have a timestamp?

Yes, those look like weed containers or some other craft store small item/paint holder, he sprayed the inside with some clear coat with a small amount of green, turned them upside down so the mini sits on the lid. Matt is a master!!

They know where he is (the prison room) since the traveler told Jester. They just are side questing the Happy Fun Ball of death to Archmages on the way. But yeah they are definitely off task which is rescue Usah so he can become their boss/patron/parent/handler/ally.

@@susanasabino you'd be surprised. Or maybe i've just had a slew of bad DMs

HavCola @Susana Sabino I agree that it should be a common curtesy but unfortunately we don’t live in a world where that is always the case. This is just an example among many why Matt is great though

I think it goes to show how empathetic Matt is. And how much he cares about his friends :)

This is really hard for me to say what I would do as a DM. I really like to consider myself as a nice person but I am using music in my games to set the mood and invoke some feelings. If I am going for the uncomfortable feeling the music is doing its job. Though I also don't want to scar or make my players hate the experience. I think it would really come down to the Player for me and what I know about them. I really don't know what way I am leaning on this. Hopefully you all know what I am trying to say.

Just find the 2 versions of Castle Greyhawk, and a copy of the Tomb of Horrors, and use those as inspiration, and add in what M9 found here.

A great organization which they had promoted on an earlier show! Whether it happened officially or unofficially, this makes me v happy

Sam’s face when she wasn’t sure she prepared cure wounds is just incredible

at least she has a healer's kit, i think

She isnt a healer tho, shes playing a cleric and does more damage than caleb does most fights unless he gets a big fireball aor

Clerics are WAY more than mere healbots.

Yes, Clerics can do more than just heal. Most people are aware of that. I think the sentiment is that she CAN heal and just CAN'T bring herself to do it 😆 If Tal hadn't rolled a Cleric, C2 would've played out MUCH differently

“An Exponential System of Bad Ideas: The Mighty 9 Story” Chapter One How we got arrested for helping...

The last 70 Episodes were an exponential system of bad ideas.

I was hoping Caddy would have done a Perception check in the Dreadnought room, rolled a nat 20 because duh it's Tal, and just have visions of terrifying eldritch bullshit all around

What was up with Travis being set on going to the dreadnought, rather than going through rooms they had already cleared. Is this some plot? Is he still working for Uk'Utoa?
