>>92723974Alrightwhat class + race are you planning on being?
>>92723974Champion Fighter is basically the tutorial class, you don't do much but move and attack, however that doesn't stop it from doing tremendous damage on the field and being pretty hardy.
>>92719369other hubs i popped>exterminated giants when lead an attack to the city that was planned by the DM but premature because the party turned on my PC>opened a magically sealed container that had a necklance and a black pearl, which turned out to be an uncontainable plague that wiped out a town and keeps spreading>tired to transport part of the plague (weaponization/research) but it ate through a dragon hide bag and travelled downstream to murder another towni raised concerns to the DM but he preplanned and did the "ebin handcrafted campaign where everything is connected" so we are stuck with the only hub being a city which criminalized magic and is semi-hostile/trashed from siege from point one and before siege i destroyed the only "good blacksmith" therefuck me i guess i am the problemnot even sure ill roll a new character for the game at this point, im demoralised from getting shafted for interacting with the world"high risk high reward" he said but he pavlov'd us through "high risk low reward"
>>92724133the only way to win is to play as a death cultist and delicate all massacres to your dark god
>>92724133Ouch, did the sealed container at least have a "do not open" sticker on it?If you do roll a new character just go all-in and call yourself the "bringer of calamity" or something, worship whatever the nastiest deity of the setting is and try to bring about the end of civilization.Could be funny.
Important (non-combat) roles in an adventuring party? Realisticaly speaking.
>>92716833I figure you'd want a superhero system. Those are the only ones that tend to cover the scope from a relatively normal swordsman up towards somebody flying around and shooting lasers but they can't swim. Mutants and Masterminds and Wild Talents are the games I see suggested most there. I tend to find the latter is a bit easier to parse, though that's just me. If you want something much lighter, I'd suggest Truth and Justice since it's even less crunchy, though that tends to lean more heavily on some of the narrative tropes, so might not be quite as ideal.
>>92716833There is a d&d version of One Piece.Personally I think its very mid, they tried way too hard (or not har enough) into making one pieceness fit into d&d classes. This one specifically: https://www.reddit.com/r/UnearthedArcana/comments/wohkta/explore_the_one_piece_dungeons_and_devil_fruits/
>>92704459pack mule>is also pegasusguy who watches pack mule>has the ability to turn you into a girl>>92704057emergency ration
>>92716833i'd just try to build it with an universal system. Use marine ranks for stating everything. One individualized magic system for every fruit. Haki as an universal magic system. Haki could be interesting. Blocking/Attacking opponents with stronger haki fatigues you more severely while doing so with those on equal footing does so moderately while fighting weaker ones does nothing at all. Invoking haki on your attacks could make it linger as extra armor. Solving hp bloat. A stronger opponent is only tankier due to haki and if that runs out they're just superhuman or whatever.Fatiguing completely leads you into some burnout state where you are super vulnerable or something similar.

>>92722327The metal victory point tokens are shoddy and hard to read. The rest of the components are of acceptable quality. I wish the tiles were smaller though. They fill the bag so much that in the early game it can be difficult to draw from the bag without accidentally looking inside. Tiles collections also have a large footprint on the table if you're going heavy into pharaohs, rivers, or monuments.

The combat is unintuitive and not really like anything I've ever played, but you get used to it and the tutorials do a really good job of easing you into the concepts.
>>92719629That is an old monster. Mechanically it isn't too bad but when you're looking at all those maps it can be a bit of a mindfuck. Classic wargame though. Victory Games was the GOAT.
Lately, I've been more interested in getting old classics than modern garbage. I am also getting old classics rereleased, like Ra, for example.

What are the best depictions of vampires?
>>92720686In the Dunwhich Horror shortly after the birth of WIlbur, there are periods where Levine and Old Man Wheatly are seen with sores on their necks just like the cows they ordered to feed him and the Horror.You could naturally make a perversion of the typical infant suckling dynamic where a vampire intentionally comes across as child like to parasitically bond with a person affecting them psychologically as well as physically.They do their best to maintain their host until their demands ultimately burn them out and then they just finish them off before moving on.It also made me think of the HIve from Destiny and their parastic relationship with the worms that gives them power. The worms grow hungrier the more you feed them and will feed to the point of self destruction if you cannot sate them. which even facilitated a system of tithing up the ranks to regulate and maintain a steady stream of killing to allow the Hive Gods to keep feeding their worms while allowing their underlings to do so as well.
kain from legacy of kain.
>>92700999I think that elemental vampires are cool. Imagine, elemental power flowing through their veins instead of blood, hungering for the life blood of mortals to allow them to replenish their physical shells and keeping them from being consumed by their own power.
>>92722414Okay, post a stat block for such a vampire. You're discussing traditional games, right?
>>92719604>Dracula was the star pupil at the Scholomance.No, the star pupil was sent to hell as the devil's right hand.Also, Dracula being a student of the devil's arts had nothing to do with him being a vampire.

>>92720911Banana bourbon espresso sounds really good, going to have to try making that myself sometime.
>>92722319Add a bit of cocoa to it too, syrup would work best but it's hard to find a good syrup that isn't super sweetened. To be fair the sweetness might help to offset the bite and bitter but I'm one that likes the bitter so I'd want to find some good dark (or even baker's) chocolate style stuff. The powders dissolve easily though to yeah.Oh and a bit of nutmeg too while you're at it, would probably go well with that flavor palette.

Hi there, I want you guys to rate the monsters within the Monster Core from a scale of 1 (Terrible) to 10 (Excellent). It can be based on anything between lore, visuals, or other stuff. First, we're starting with the Aeons.
>>92714638If a group routinely kills monsters and sells their most valuable parts, then this is standard practice. Doubly so if the group knows a necromancer always in the market for stable remains to experiment with. "Loot" just happens to be whatever has value that the PCs are willing to cart around and sell. I know 2e doesn't encourage anything beyond mindless combat, but it's better to have a mechanic and not need it than vice versa.
>>92717552I haven't seen players try to sell vendor trash from monsters in almost 20 years, who's doing that now?
>>92717717My 3.5/PF group has saturated the market with lizardfolk hides, dire wolf fangs, and giant frog parts and refuse to throw away the remaining ~40lbs. They've lost more money in special containers than they'd earn if they sold everything at full price. At this point, it's become a matter of principle and they're certain they'll run across a traveling merchant that'll buy everything.
>>92712236>It looks like they dropped alignment though so there's not even that reason for them to be different things anymore, and since they also removed the ones from D&D there's even more reason to combine them.They wont combine them because each faction has completely different ideologies. Both devils and demons hate daemons and will team up together to kill both. In fact, Pharasma allows a demon and a devil to sit at the portal to the daemon afterlife to allow them to convince damned souls to come either to Hell or the Outer Rifts (Abyss) instead of going to the soul eating daemons.Devils hate demons for being chaotic ruinious bastards with no sense for hierarchy or how a fiendish society should be constructed, and demons hate devils for ruining there fun and freewheeling cruelty. Not to mention they all come from very different realms. I get that many here are remarkably stupid verging on literal retardation, but its not that hard to remember the differences between these creatures in regards to D&D and PF.>>92712512>Talk about bargain bin Frankenstein, holy shitIts literally the flesh golem, which was always Frankenstein's monster, now with noOGL and no Golem type.>Dolphin entry with orca art, because why not.Orcas are literally a type of dolphin.>Don't need more dragons at allconsidering that the metallics and chromatics arent going to be printed in any Paizo books anymore and all current dragon NPCs will be retconned as to their type, yeah, they did need more dragons. Paizo specific dragos like Imperials, Outer, Planar, and others still exist, but the chromatics and metallics are gone and will not return. Even Golarion's few tenuous lore connections to Tiamat are also gone, with retcons on Apsu and Dahaks lore and reason for fighting.
>>92721685>Its literally the flesh golem, which was always Frankenstein's monster, now with noOGL and no Golem type.Yes, anon, I know. I was ridiculing the Chris Farley rummaging in a thrift store with some hair gel combover and Halloween makeup artwork they opted to use.>Orcas are literally a type of dolphin.Once again, yes anon I know. It's the D section and a dolphin would make more sense. It just comes off as sloppy.>yeah, they did need more dragonsI should've been clearer in the post: *I* don't need more dragons. I don't care what Paizo needs. That post was me ranking bestiary content on an imageboard unconnected to Paizo.
What do we think of this Fallout TTRPG system?
>>92720570lol
>>92719363It's this >>92719691Fantastic racism is a trait they ironically share with the Enclave, but the Enclave take it a bit further. The BoS doesn't care about radiation damage and genetic purity, their beef with wastelanders is cultural. The BoS have the superior philosophies and training and therefore no others deserve and can be trusted with pre-war tech, at least not without the BoS educating them first (based on now non-canon FO1 endings).
>>92720625Friendly reminder that Harold got turned into something visually identical to a ghoul, if not an actual ghoul by the more modern definition, basically overnight by exposure to the same vat substance that created the Master.I'm not defending shit from the show cause I haven't seen it, but what a ghoul is and how they actually work has always been kept intentionally vague. But there's clearly several levels of ghoulification, so it's probably best to be cautious about generalizing things to apply to all ghouls universally.
>>92719436I may be misremembering but in the last episode I'm pretty sure at one point Cooper's wife looks up at a darkened observation window in the upper room, with the way her pip boy chirped first implying she was getting instructions from someone not in the room. So the Big Boss isn't House/RobCo or West Tek or Big MT or any of the others. Could be the President, I suppose, who was said to be missing from public eye in the first ep. That would suggest it would really be the Enclave, and I don't think anyone would be surprised if the Enclave was really advocating for first strike with contingencies so that they would later emerge to reestablish America proper and thus be the sole surviving nation of the Great War. I mean that's pretty much their history already. As far as I know the only thing we never knew was who dropped the bombs first, which all things being said and done didn't really matter. But now that it's suggested Vault-Tec does it, well, that doesn't really make sense to me. If they're already the biggest corp in the US it makes zero sense destroying their customer base. All their cash will be worthless. It just makes more sense that a different kind of jingoistic supremacist force is behind things, which is the Enclave all the way.Unless they add yet another super secret shadow organization into the mix. Fuck, I hope not.
>>92723961It's probably just the Enclave again since it explains why the Enclave had the cold fusion macguffin at the beginning. Presumably the reason why they didn't use it is because the tech was secured pre-war but Moldaver kept the secret on how to activate it.While on that topic, there's still some problems with the plot to me. Like why the hell did Moldaver have a bunch of psychotic raiders working for her in the beginning as opposed to her remnant NCR troopers? Or if she did, why were her NCR troopers indistinguishable from raiders? Seems like it's just to preserve the fakeout that her faction isn't raider at all but a peaceful community with happy kids and equality with ghouls. Which was kind of a letdown if only because it meant the end of the first season mirrored the shit that went down in Vault 4 where Maximus comes in like the cavalry to save Lucy only to learn, whoops, there wasn't an actual threat and he made everything worse. And why is there even still an active Enclave faction in the west? And how was the NCR completely crippled? Sure the loss of their capital would be a huge blow but they are composed of five states and major population centers such as Vault City, Redding, The Hub, with Big Brahmin Barons to boot. Plenty of big players to try to claim the whole pie. They survived a BoS nuclear strike that took out their gold reserves which was a far bigger issue, I'd warrant, since politicians are easier to replace than the basis for their currency. The water standard didn't do them any favors. Their president can also die in New Vegas and not cause any major changes. And why does Vault 31Team Middle Management have access to a goddamn nuke? If they're working with the Enclave why wouldn't they have used it during FO2? And - oh hell, there's a lot of little things.Makes me nervous they're moving in on New Vegas territory. What else can the writers with?

>>92718919yeah he seems focused
In my opinion, the way the World Championship should work is this:Start out with #1 rated player as Champion. Then, there is only a WC match if the WC is no longer #1 rated and it has been at least 2 years since the last WC match. The challenger in the WC match is always the highest rated player who isn't the WC and who doesn't decline the match.
>>92721440Are you crazy? China will do a series of closed tournaments until one of the players "magically" gets to 2900.
