p21 of the 1ed PHB, the Druid combat doesn't have to be lethal, but the loser loses a level so that there are no more than 9 12th level druids

@Contrivance 2 месяца назад

You are correct. Additionally you don't even have to beat another Druid to attain a higher rank if there's fewer than the maximum amount at that rank, which can happen if one of the Druids of that rank dies for any reason.

@cjpettie 2 месяца назад

The same applied for Monks going to 8th level and beyond. 1e PHB pg. 32 - "There can be only a limited number of monks above 7th level (Superior Master). There are three 8th level (Master of Dragons) and but one of each higher level. When a player character monk gains sufficient experience points to qualify him or her or 8th level, the commensurate abilities are attained only temporarily. The monk must find and defeat in single combat, hand-to-hand, without weapons or magic items, one of the 8th level monks..."

@Allvaldr 2 месяца назад

I am not sure if it was a real D&D edition or a retroclone, but I also read a rule somewhere that said the druid challenge didnt even have to be physical combat. A druid could challenge a higher druid to a game of riddles or chess or whatever if they so wanted and the challenged party agreed.

I found it funny that, even when they weren't sure of the edition, they could usually make a good guess based on the writing style (Gygax's cadence, in particular, is unmistakeable).

@swordsnstones 2 месяца назад

what i love about this the most is that no one person is the end all be all for edition knowledge. The impression you can get from some content creators is that they know every edition cover to cover...makes you feel a little...less. Nice to see and hear that even the top tier creators are not walking encyclopedias and are humans after all :) cheers thanks guys

I think the aspect of a druid having to kill another druid to ascend in power may have been inspired by the Rex Nemorensis, who was a keeper of a sacred grove in ancient Roman times who could only lose his position if defeated in mortal combat by a pretender.

Fun fact: In 3.5 Innuendo was split between the Bluff skill (the messenger's part) and the Sense Motive (the eavesdropper's part). 3.0 also has the Read Lips skill. Apparently, the designers were expecting intercepting messages (be they secret, far away, or in a crowded place) to be a major form of obtaining information.

@JMcMillen 2 месяца назад

As I recall, the 5-50 players in a campaign was for sandbox games where you would only play with a manageable number of players at any one time, but you had a large pool of players that were all playing in a shared world. So if one group cleared out the goblin cave, other groups would find it empty.

@tomkerruish2982 2 месяца назад

Dual classing existed in first edition. A human character (and only a human character) could start as one class, then start as another. Once their new class level equaled (or maybe exceeded) their old class level, they could use the abilities of both. It was clunky. Did I mention it was first edition?

One of the guideposts they used when developing 4e was "eliminating bogus symmetry" which justified them removing Chaotic Good, Neutral, and Lawful Evil alignments (Neutral became Unaligned).

@pi4t651 2 месяца назад

Question suggestion: "The tower can absorb 200 points of dawizard before collapsing. Dawizard sustained is cumulative, and the fortress cannot be repaired (although a wish restores 10 points of dawizard sustained)." Or "The user may look into the ball, concentrate on any place or object, and cause the iwizard of the place or object to appear. A crystal ball may be used three times per day, for up to one turn per use. The more familiar the object or area, the clearer the iwizard." These are, of course, quotes from the infamous Encyclopedia Magicka from 2e. An editor carelessly replaced "mage" with "wizard" throughout the book.

The ironic thing was that you weren't just killing the other druid for the XP, you had to do it even if you had the XP already. Sort of a Battle Royale org chart kind of a thing, there was only room for one person at each node.

Also the "just a box of notes" wasnt from Gary, I suspect. That sounds more like Tim Kask getting a box of notes from Arneson regarding Blackmoor. I've heard that particular story from Kask several times. Also, there WERE no other employees to dothe writing for OD&D. Kask was employee #1 and the little brown books were already published. Arneson was brilliant DM and had quite the imagination, but was apparently disorganized and not the best writer. Plus, we olde folke would never call it zero edition or 1st edtion. It was D&D or maybe OD&D and AD&D. "Edition" wasn't added until 2nd Edition. Basic doesn't really fit. The first two versions of basic were mostly OD&D. The BECMI version was a fusion.

@SavageGreywolf 2 месяца назад

Fifth edition's way to keep you from bringing a character back over and over is to limit how long a character can be dead and still be revived, per character level. Revivify has to be in the first minute, other resurrection spells will only work in a given amount of time like a week or a year. Though you're right, 5e is the most lenient edition when it comes to bringing characters back.
