Blaine: *Talks about anime and d&d all the time* Blaine when he gives a 30 second summarization of Time Dilation: "I feel like such a nerd"

Or: Simply get access to a sphinx and their lair. They can travel 10 years, either direction through a simple lair action.

So, you made a video about being a time traveling warforged, and you didn't make a single Terminator reference? I don't know if I'm impressed or disappointed.

What's the denses thing in the world Me- a harem protag- yes a blackhole

Behold for I can make a human fighter a unbassic charackter.

Option two: You use the sequester spell and freeze yourself in time for a day rather than going to the star. This plan only takes a 7th level spell and has no potential to kill you with unforeseen math errors.

"what's the densest object in the known universe?" *YOUR M-*

Blaine: *animates himself next to girls in maid outfits and talks about anime* Also Blaine, talking about middle school physics: "I sound like such a nerd right now"

Material Component: Some kid with a book face

D&D: Doctor and Dragons. By the way, I think a video about Bakarina (intelligence at Aqua levels, charisma maxed) in D&D would be fine.

I will add this to the list of DM killers Teri sends his thanks :D

Sorry to wreck this so shortly after you posted but here goes. The boots of levitation means you can cast levitate at will. Levitate has a weight limit of 500 pounds. So theoretically you would weigh heavier than 500 pounds depending on gravity and the various items that you carry You would have to weigh in your own 0.00000000005 pounds without any other items. Even if you were weightless, the items you are wearing would probably crush you,I don't know if levitate affects those as well

This would never “officially” work, simply because of how D&D structures it’s world into “realms.” Though you might achieve the same effect by planescaping/planeswalking into the realm of many doors. (I forget what it’s actual name is; it’s the same place in the video game: Planescape: Torment.) You merely need to find a door that opens to a place backwards in time. Good luck!

It's a cool video, but no offense the physics is a bit off xD. Example: While levitating above a Neutron Star, Newton's Axiome would crush you

Why is the funny nerd talking about the spy hamsters?

You can also use the feywild for this but it's kind of a gamble like in the DM's guide it says that if you travel to the feywild the DM has to roll a d6 to see how long it would take one day in the feywild like one day in the feywild could be one year in the material plane if the DM rolled a 6.

or just go to the fey wild (time warps there)

Well, you could use a black hole. After all, gravity works from a distance so as long as you don't go into the event horizon you should be fine (and it will allow you to travel way faster to the future so even earlier times are possible). That said, I'm not sure if levitation does shield you against the crushing effects of gravity, specially in boot form. If I was a GM and you tried to use that argument I would only protect the feet from the effect. There's is also spaghettification (yes, that's an actual term) which could be a potential problem but I would give it away from this. Accelerating to relativistic speeds may be an easier way to do this, since acceleration and gravity seem to be identicall. An alternate method is to use a reverse gravity spell (if there is one) to build a warp drive and just go around in a FTL spaceship since travelling faster than light and traveling to the past are mathematical synonims. This way you would just need to accelerate to FTL speeds, run in circles and go back to either relativistic or regular speeds.

Luckily I have made my own class that can go back in time 12 seconds as one of it's higher level abilities

Interestingly enough, WoTC actually did provide a way to travel back to a certain period of time. (WARNING SPOILERS AHEAD FOR A CERTAIN MODULE IN D&D! IF YOU ARE PLAYING THROUGH ANY MODULES RIGHT NOW PLEASE DO NOT CONTINUE PAST THIS POINT) In the new module Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frost Maidien, you can explore an ancient Netherese City(the Netherese were a magical empire with floating cities that crashed) you can find a strange obelisk. A Brain in a Jar controlling a Helm Horror tells you to use a staff of power to activate which when done, removes 10 years off of everyone in the blast radius and brings the entire party back to when the city was floating and the empire was flourishing.

Hey, male Sphynxes can just bring you ten years back in time if they want.

Interesting I just made a Demi-plane was created 12,000 years ago by a God Like King . But for each year within the Demi-plane 100 years passes on the outside. So only 120 years have passed in the demi plane

Black holes be like: I like ya cut, GEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I mean technically we're all always moving forwards in time, it's just that we can't move forward in time faster than normal yet.

Just stand on a neutron star, seems easy enough.

For some reason I used to think fate: zero and re: zero were in the same continuity but after googling it three minutes ago I knew I was wrong Edit: I started watching re: zero today and I've seen the first episode or two of fate: zero so I can say for sure that this was a stupid mistake

This is soo good thank you for making so much good content

*teleports "Ooh im not burning or getting cru-" *spagetifies

“Gosh I sound like a huge nerd right now” he says unironically making a video about D&D

Now let’s hope the players who use this don’t end up like Subaru.

This is more like being a day younger than anyone else than being a day in the past

aaaaactually unless the magic boots remove gravity, and im pretty sure they just let you fly, while still being affected, and the amount of forces required for you to not fall to gravity are enough to crush you alone. Just because you don't touch something doesn't mean you are affected by gravity, matpa- I mean blaine.

Wait, does a neutron star count as molten “rock”? Because at this point, isn’t it more of a soup of free electrons and free neutrons?

holy shit I'm early, I was watching the shield hero one and I figured I search to see if you did one on Re:Zero since you said you like that one and it's my favorite show. So I search it and here I am within like 10 minutes of this being uploaded lol

I loved this concept! I had no clue where you were going with this right up until the end. A small note though... I don't think the levitation boots would keep you from pancaking. You'd still be experiencing the gravitational pull from the star to the same extreme the boots just put your landing zone in the air rather than on the surface. Also if you cancel out the gravitational force of the object it basically negates your time travel effect (I've been studying for 5 years in this field trust me here). I think you'd need to find a route where you can withstand the force of the gravity for it to work. But anyway that's all nitpicky shit that doesn't really matter because it's D&D! I love the creativity here dude, keep up the good work!

Dude, literally last Thursday me and mij groep time traveled (in DnD) and we are now stuck around 1000 years in the past. Your video almost couldn't be better timed for me!

wonder how well Return by Death would work in DnD still waiting on your Re:Zero in DnD video...

1:29 well in 5e maybe and there is still wish and even if you banned wish there is divine intervention There is time stuff on 3.5e(psions and time dragons) and 2e I think too 4:28 star would suck your skin and blood before you can think Also spelljammer and other phsyics suggest againts your idea and its time erasing not travel

For a channel with "simple" in its name, this video broke my brain! 🤣

"and lets us walk on top of molten rock!" ...sir that's not what a star is

Who is gona tell him that other than the sun, other stars don't exist?

You forgot solar radiation. Neutron starts emit enough x-ray level radiation to make you dead a million times over. I don't care what you say, radiation damage is seperate from fire damage. Also, the solar wind generated from its rapid rotation would shred your armor and body in nanoseconds. In short, don't do this and just use a Wish spell

We all know Calebs taking notes rn

There is a far better way. Assemble the peasant rail gun using giants instead of peasants. Basically the peasant rail gun exploits a rule error, allowing a line of creatures to throw something (in this case you) faster than the speed of light. Have them launch you at 2x the speed of light and according to my friend, in theory you will go back in time.

Technically you'd have gone 1 day extra into the future but youd be gone from the face of the planet for 124 hours.

Aah yes stand on a nutron star um no have you seen the amount of teslas they have which is EVEN WORSE WHEN YOUR MADE OUT OF METAL there called magnatars for a reason

I have two issues with this is, and one is just a nitpick. 1) Just because you are not touching an object does not mean that you are not affected by the gravity of that object. As a DM I would rule that the Boots only give you the necessary force to remain a few feet off the ground but would do nothing to protect the rest of your body from the effects of the gravity. Which would lead to... 2) It's an implosion not an explosion due to the immense forces of gravity. The difference being that an explosion is an outward force, and implosion being an inward force.

if you are immune to gravity, you should be immune to time

Levitating will not fix the crushing gravity problem. Gravity will always affect you and also when you push up with the levitating boots it will crush you more

okay, so ehh. no. while time dilation is a real thing, it dosent let you travel through time. it simply slowes the progress of time. so the fates card whould just make you a day older seeing as you traveld through time normaly.

I remember reading a story something like this: Session 0-3: The party wakes up at level 16 in a tower. Each time somebody dies, they wake up at level 16 in a tower. A mysterious fog is creeping in, and if it catches anybody the party resets. The party bypasses the traps and beats the monsters, and at the top is a hooded figure scouring over notes. He ignores you, muttering about his mistakes and how he wanted to improve the world. He turns to you, and says this is his last chance and option, and begs you to find him in the past. The party then wakes up at level [start], remembering their time in the tower but not who exactly was at the top.

So technically... we’re all always moving forward in time, at a rate of one second per second :)

How to time travel in DnD: Step 1: Don't

Why not just use the wish spell, seems less complicated.

Boots of levitation would not make you immune to gravity. Edit- You'd still be subject to the gravitational attraction dependant on your distance from the star, so you've managed to squash yourself into your boots. Congratulations.

Ice Wind Dale has a major plot point where reactivating the mytholar in the abandoned Netherese city sends you back to the same city to some unknown date when the city is still flying and active with the city a vibrant metropolis

1:38 Really? I can travel 10 hours forward in time every night.

Broke: Subaru Woke: Yoshikage Kira Bespoke: Ringo Roadagain

1:57 "gosh i sound like a huge nerd right now" ...yeah this is a DnD youtube video only using official books....

As a physics expert, I can say that your explanation was about as good as it can get without going into the math.

Wait, isn't this meta-gaming? The character would have no knowledge of any of this stuff unless you're in a modern setting.

Listen, Talking about gravity and time and space isn’t what makes you sound like a nerd.

Meanwhile if you want to use time travel as a villain goal check out Nox from Wakfu and witness one of the best animated villains ever.

I'm going to have a B.B.E.G. have two warforged that have done this several dozen times each be his bodyguards.

If boots of levitation would work on the neutron star, than it would work on a black hole because the gravitational pull would still not work.

4:25 not really, you see : So, with that : But we forgot to add And with that, you'll not be crushed but you'll not be Time travelling

The best part: after all that time-traveling, you still have the items, so you can do it again if needed. Unless it breaks the DM's brain and the story too much

There was this homebrew spell that allowed the caster to see, hear, etc a location as it was up to a century into the past, the caster can not move around but can look around. So with metamagic adept one could rule that with subtle spell you could cast subtle misty step to somewhere you can see within range. So like if your seeing the past and misty step to the place you see? Probably not but worth a try.

I should point out that you'd also need to make yourself immune to radiant damage. Though I'm sure there's an item that can do that.

I think that's time traveling back to the present

I already sent my players 20 years into the future in my world before this video came out... whoops

I figure that although a star would deal plenty of fire damage, the bulk of its danger would be in radiant damage. There's no way to properly communicate how bright a star is at its surface, but it would immediately kill anyone not immune to radiant damage.

Okay, I liked the "levitation means gravity nullification" argument, I'll accept it.

Levitation: One creature or loose object of your choice that you can see within range rises vertically, up to 20 feet, and remains suspended there for the duration. The spell can levitate a target that weighs up to 500 pounds. Weight is not mass, so next to such a massive object you would weigh significantly more than 500 pounds and would be crushed

I don't think D&D has it but in Pathfinder there's the Create Demiplane spell which (if you use the "Greater" version) can make a demiplane at half normal time speed (or double). This would let the whole party time travel too. I know it's not technically D&D but I thought I'd point it out and it seems more reliable than the "go to the Feywild, what could go wrong?" plan.

I have another idea nit related to time travel. Step 1: get coal Step 2: build a gigantic coal golem Step 3: teleport it on the neutron star Step 4: wait Step 5: get it back to have a diamond golem under your control.

Forge clerics get fire Immunity at level 17

If you want to travel forward in time in the human world, you just wait a second and now you traveled 1 second forward in time I’m not wrong

Before he even said Deck of Many Things, I knew the fates was the card

1:24 There is an offical way to time travel in an adventure! In Out of the Abyss the monodrones left a device called the Maze Engine (pg. 186) which, if activated, spits out magical effects and there is a 2% chance you time travel to the start of the adventure. It’s hardly something you can replicate in every game but hey, it still officially exists.

Now my isekai character will have his god complexion to the extreme high when he comes back to his main realm.

Forget sun screen, the magnetic field will kill the warforged.

Sphinx's lair actions allow it to LITERALLY time travel...

"First, you need to go stand on a neutron star for a while..." "No problem." "...and second, you'll need to draw a card from The Deck of Many Things." "ARE YOU NUTS?!?!?!"

Even though you are levitating over a neutron star you will get crushed by the gravity, since your upper body are longer away from the star than your lover body.

Well every sponsor now is the deck of many

Nice Idea. Minor Correction: Gravitiy is a continous force. It works even when not standing on the surface of the planet, weakening by distance from the object. So floating above the planet would still result in routhly the same g-force. That means if the levitating boots actually account for the greater force on the neutron star, you would be squashed between the gravitation and the counter froce of the boots, become a floating pancake.

Time Will Tell, Sooner or Later, Time _Will_ Tell *Frank Klepacki's Hell March Intensifies*

Boots of levitation wouldn't stop from being crushed. Since every force has an equal and opposite force, the gravitational field would push down on you while at the same time the boots will push up on you with an equal force. Thus you wouldn't be touching the ground/star, but the boots would effectively act as the new ground and you would be crushed into them.

I know how to travel forward in time. Just stand in the corner for however long you want to travel forward and bam, you are that much further in time than when you started

Sees thumbnail, Sees Subaru Me: oh god

About the boots of levitation thing: Yeah, you wont be crushed to the ground. But you would still be crushed into your boots. Your body cant handle gravity that strong.

at 4:15 i feld a strange rumble...as like...millions of scientists just died of shock...

Actually within the spheres that each DND realm takes place in you don't need to worry about freezing in space, or the lack of atmosphere making your blood boil. You simply need an oxygen supply, but can otherwise float out there unprotected and be perfectly fine. Spelljammer.

Ok kids, this is where it gets complicated

The neutron star thing also presents the problem of being cooked by Hawking Radiation, so it’s the same problem as a black hole

Like the spirit of the video, bu- *objection!* 1. What's your understanding that levitation allows you to counter gravity? It was a bit handwavy for my taste especially since I don't think gravity would work that way. My Logic: the spell simply supplies the force to float, but it doesn't nullify gravity. Otherwise people would die on earth when they used it unless there was another clause. 2. What forces the DM to interpret "make me traveling to the neutron star never happen" in that way? As a DM I'd simply set the timeline back to when you're about to use teleport or ask you how you used your days on earth between your teleports.

Travelling in time forward is mandatory and guaranteed

I actually created a home brew spell for this, though I doubt I’ll ever use it. Works similar to plane shift except it’s 9th level and has a chance of either stranding you in the past or future. Also I’d recommend having the history of your world thoroughly fleshed out otherwise you and your players will get extremely lost.

And here I was thinking you would talk about how to set a D&D campaign in Lugunica with so many overpowered individuals.
