  • Can you play this game solo?

  • @florenmage Yes.

  • @boredomtv100 Awesome!I may just get into this game then.= D

  • which version do they paly?

  • @Vugnerok 3.5

  • why is it that there is some crazy shit on the sidebar when im just trying to watch some d&d

  • @oliviasdaddy1, i think he meant what level are their characters

  • doesn't every noob think that 00 = zero?

  • what level are they playing at

  • @TheOtakuChicago Level one given that their attacks are no more than 8 vs. AC.

  • Two points, Bluebell is the drow ranger not the wizard. Two Jaundace did cast ONE spell. But your main point is still valid. The runes aren't going anywhere.

  • Is any one but me concerned that these guys have been playng for like 3 and 1/2 hours with no food or bathroom brakes?

    My DnD character is awsome.

  • @WagerET No, I think most people can survive even longer than 3 and 1/2 hours without food.

  • @WagerET They did take a break for food at like part 8 or something and Steel diamond at one point did take a bathroom break. It's called editing. Not trying to offend.

  • I got the feeling that once Jaundice started deactivating the summoning spell, he couldn't stop doing it.

  • I just dont get it... couldnt Jaundice help kill everything, and then work on the runes?

  • @dragy148816 I imagine their thinking, not that I necessarily agree, was that they were locked into the final encounter now and would be constantly fighting stuff till the end so the sooner he could disable the runes the better. But yeah, he definitely should have laid down more damage before starting on them.

    It's fitting that the guy who started shoveling gold into his pockets is being blood-sucked to death though, hasn't he ever seen an Indiana Jones movie?

  • First rule of dnd let nature take it's course

  • I love how one guy is close to death with a bunch of stirges on him, and a couple of the other players are ignoring him to examine the runes. Hey guys, I bet the runes will still be there when the stirges are dead....

  • @marcelagae go back to 2:40

  • guess in "the gamers 2" they were right, Bards do suck! LOL

  • true but but half the time the only reason my pcs are creative is to get me angry lol

  • i hate it when pcs do stupid things and die the other day i had a halfling pc try and climb on top of a cloud giant the giant just grappled him and in a few rounds had dealed critical damage

  • @xtreme0ride One mans stupid is another mans creative.

  • YYYYeeaeeaaaaeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey­yy

  • it seams that theres alot of people complaining over ''when should you die?''

    i think the one my gm uses - when you'r down to 0- you have 25% of your normal hit points - then you die - is pretty balanced. (monsters only have to 0)

  • can a player trade in a minor action for a standard action?if so why?if not why?and can someone trade in a move action for a standard or Vice versa

  • @RTard48JRod You can trade in your standard action in for either a move or a minor action, and you can trade your move action in for a minor action. You can't change a move or a minor action to get a standard action, 'cause seriously... attacking 3 times a turn would be wayyy op.

    so baasically the different things you can do on your turn are (sans action points):

    min, mov, std

    min, mov, mov

    min, mov, min

    min, min, min

    min, min, std

  • @Bohogren well put!

  • They really should make this into a series. I would watch every episode!

    Heck have WOTC sponsor it., it's got me looking to buy 4th edition. I already broke out my old D&D stuff from the closet after watching this.

  • @MrOrthrus I bought the 4th Edition Redbox. It was cheap and i always wanted to try DnD but it was always expensive.I watched this and i bought the redbox,the bad news is 4 of my friends have no life but DnD..they are addicted and always wana play....I am DM so i am not fully adicted..about 70% vs there 80% haha

  • love this Quast

  • It's on my bucket list to play D&D with you guys! ya'll are awesome!

  • Hahaha his face at 7:30

  • Awesome ^^

  • precious fluids lol

  • Comment removed

  • @TheBootlehooch Well, I went back and re-read the section in the PHB about the action point and you are correct. I believe it is our DM that has imposed that restriction on us and thus got used to it being that way. My apologies.

  • @armitageid Funny thing is Action points are nothing new, the concept was started in Eberron 3.5 Campaign setting core rulebook, look it up if you dont believe me. But its there plain as day.

  • @sithdl76 Took a look at the book. It is explained on page 45. While they are indeed called action points, they appear to work differently. Looks like you only get them when you level and you roll for the amount you get. Plus, it appeas you can use it more than once an encounter. So, while it allows you to take an extra action, the mechanics appear to be WAY different.

  • @armitageid Sorry..to be clearer on my reply...you roll for the amount added to your d20 roll. The number of d6 you roll depends on your lvl etc etc.

  • @armitageid Yup, I like that actaully, its sort of like Force points out of Star Wars Saga in a way, adding a d6 roll to your d20 roll, its like a bit of luck for the PCs. Though I am sure you still fail on a 1 when rolled, even a bit of luck still dont help you get screwed over on an epic fail.

  • This new method of listing posts is damned confusing :/

  • Has the wizard cast a single spell the whole game?

  • @dream6601 Not that I have seen. Just been doing skill challenges.

  • @dream6601 I think he did one scorching burst early in the encounter...that is until he was mesmerized by the runes. I think he's giddy about his +10.

  • Another thing that has annoyed me....is (I think it is Blue Bell" is messing around with those runes. Get up and help your team mates or at LEAST try healing the guy who is about to die. I mean...geez. You can try to disable the runs OUTSIDE of combat. It was the same damn thing with that Arcane Ballista in the ice room. Let me fiddle with this while you all take care of the baddies.....

  • @armitageid I agree with you about those runes though, the wizard needs to get back into the fight and clean up this mess. The stirges seem to have about 20 hp or so, a couple rounds of scorching burst would do nicely.

  • @TheBootleghooch Agreed. Those stirges just screamed AOE to me. Plus...never helps having another party member dishing out the damage.

  • Just curious...he should NOT have been able to move after using the Action Point to take another swing at the monster. He would had to move BEFORE he used the action point.

  • @armitageid Check the handbook before spouting wrong information. You can spend an action point during your turn, you gain an extra action that turn. You can still take the actions in any order.

  • @armitageid the action point just give you another standard action whenever you use it. if you use it before you move, you can still move afterwards.

  • I hope they do another one after this series! It's too funny, that and i've never seen how a game of D&D goes, it's very interesting

  • They should have tried to heal the bard first instead of keep fighting the monsters.

  • I don't think Steel Diamond is gonna make it.

  • I agree with you Shaolin, especially seeing how they handle dying in this edition. I like the 3.5 system of going to -10 hp or massive damage to determine a character's death. This 3 death save rolls business is well dumb. I mean if u fail all 3 death saves thats it game over. at least in 3.5 u had 10 chances(rounds) to roll to stabilize one's character. There are a lot of flaws with 4th. Thats why I use 3.5 and Pathfinder, which is what 4th ed. should have been.

  • @sithdl76 never played 3.5 but i have played 3rd ed now i play 2ned ad&d i never liked the attack of oppertunity too much an the animations didn't lok to good liek the sorc with the bondage on ahahahahahahah not the got rid of the wizard completely you should try the old editions they kick ass

  • @TheShaolinScholar AD&D 2nd Edition is my fav. Though i am enjoying fourth edition too.

  • @TheShaolinScholar Actually I started with 2nd edition AD&D 20 years ago, so I am an old hand at D&D lol. I love it, but I also love 3.0 and 3.5 both very good systems. I also have to agree about this whole BlueBell business, worry about the damn monsters first, then fiddle with the runes. Then again, Bluebell, the way he is played, isnt very Drow..

  • @sithdl76 wizards should make a judge dredd rpg we can play tourny's with brits ahahahaha

  • I agree 4 E sucks

  • @KingObould Yes. Obviously they are all being tortured and having a miserable time. We should all play the same edition of the same game becuase you say so. Douche.

  • @stuffedskullcat Did I tell you to play

    another version ? Yes they are having

    fun and that's great. I have fun playing

    chess, but that doesn't make its rules great

    for roleplaying. Anyway this is still fun to watch.

    and gamers like you should stop being

    offended every time someone points

    out that 4E sucks.

    Now be silent. Wanker.

  • @KingObould Lol, woohoo go KingObould! Btw nice screenname, he is one bad ass Orc warlord. Forgotten Realms is my fave campaign setting for 3.0 and 3.5

  • There's a substantial difference my friend.

    In 4ed, you make 3 "death saves", and any result of 10 or highers makes you stable. These are then 3 rolls with 55% chance of success.

    In 3.5, you'd make 10 d% rolls, each with a 10% chance of success.

    3 rolls with 55% chances are actually better thatn 10 with 10%. Besides, there's no guarantee you'll make 10 checks - if an enemy hits you hard, you mayd end with -3, or -4 and then you'd have less rolls before reaching -10.

  • And in D&D 4 you can go into negative -15, -30, -70 hit points and don't die, if that's your bloodied value.

    Besides, D&D 3.X had "save or dies", those doesn't exist in D&D 4ed.

    Read more about it fellow, D&D 3.X is regarded as much deadlier game than D&D 4 - and this is actually one of the reasons why some people call 4ed "dumbed down" ;P

    I'm not saying D&D 4 doesn't have its flaws - but dying is much harder in the new edition than in the old one, that's for sure :).

  • The -10 thing was okay but it meant alot of dick DMs could just have the monster keep hacking at the character until he died. At later levels in 4e this is harder to do, which is why they do it this way. And while I'll agree Pathfinder is an improvement over 3.5e DnD, I don't not like 4e as well. It's fun and easy to play AND DM. Both are good, and I don't prefer one over the other.

  • @Krikilrath Well i for one as a DM would never have a monster attack someone that is down. When a PC is down and dying, they are off limits in my games, monsters can be hacked on, but not players.

  • Oh I know. DMs who do that don't usually last long. I'm just saying there are those who do that and they changed the dying system because of it.

    I would never do that myself, most DMs wouldn't.

    Also it's balanced out in that three strikes you die, but if you roll a nat 20 you automatically stabilize and can spend a healing surge to get back into the game.

  • @sithdl76 I still think it depends on the DM. We picked up a game that was let sit idle for a couple of months and there was NO combat what-so-ever. We played for about 4-5 hours and it was all roleplaying. We had a great time. There were several D20 rolls involved, but again...no combat. We were awarded XP by asking the right questions and getting information our of people. Very enjoyable. Next session will have combat, but this past one was very much building the story. Great times indeed!

  • Can't believe that roleplay argument again. The difference between 3rd and 4th ed. is in combat system, not roleplay. Also, these guys are first level. you can see that 4e first level is way better than 3rd. Finally, the arcane ballista is a addition by the DM, not a 4e rule.

    And about FR, it was about time they downsize the powers of the NPC's.

  • TRUE THAT

  • @pelodude

    Why was it necessary? I personally liked the diversity in FR, why not create a new setting or whatnot if they wanted something smaller? They fucking killed off at least half of each pantheon or some such...Some people's favorite deities were killed for no reason at all.

  • @FireFox170 I agree that it's not great when your favorite deities dies, but I think it's inherant to FR. In that setting, a character can become a god, and so does the NPC's. By jumping 100 years, you can expect movements in the pantheon.

    If you don't like the 4e FR setting and you want to play 4e, you can take the 3.5 and ajust. It's the avantage of a roleplaying game compare to video games: you can do pretty much what you want!

  • @pelodude hell, create your own setting from scratch! it takes a lot of work to get something that feels right and cool and nicely detailed but it's rewarding as hell.

  • @KrahulikIsGod I know, i've done that in the past. But now, I really don't have time for creating a new setting!

  • @sithdl76 i haven't herd one guy ask what the target looks like badly wounded nothing an in the previous ep the guy says i use the d20 for every thing?ahahahaha omg anyway they really need to go off some of these name the have copywritten melph,bigsby,mordenhime,ect they need to hire jack mentzer let him shave down all these 3rd ed rules omg way too many rules the old ed is a breath of fresh air

  • It's been going on for three years. Obviously it's made the cut by now, because they wouldn't keep making books for it if it wasn't selling.

  • You can suscribe and come back wenever you want to watch it. This will encourage the poster to make more videos.
