Sometimes being a true friend means shooting an arrow at their face to save them. #dndpodcast #stinkydragonpod #puppets #puppetshow #dndmeme #dnd #ttrpg #miniature #medicine
@chego05 bow and arrows have to have the space to actually draw it and launch it So if the target is at point blank range the arrow won't have enough space to build up speed and straighten out from the launch It's common in a lot of fantasy games like world of Warcraft where you can't shoot something at point blank range It might also have something to do with people being able to dodge it when they're able to see the arrow a few feet from their face
@chego05In DnD it doesnt apply to allies. Its just because 5ft away is with in an enemy's area of influence, where they can impede you using a ranged weapon. Theres a feat that lets you not take that disadvantage though.
@@Brendedn Oh that's cool and that makes a lot more sense than my explanation lol It still would have been funny if it was a disadvantage because of how close they were
Like, its not the doing stupid thing, it's the cultural unwarranted overconfidence of "we're men we can do this" that does it usually, like "we're men we don't need instruction" proceeds to electricute oneself
@@DimT670 That's is indeed true, but following the meme trend. And seeing how they all refused to listen to the voice of reason for "cool" points. I believe this deserves to be affiliated with such meme.
@@DimT670 Just saw my dad take a pizza pan out of an oven without mittens as my distressed mother tried offering them to him...pizza was fine...his fingerprints not so much... But as you were saying- Edit: thought I might also bring up the fact that he did it again today...mittens right there where we normally hang them up...I dint know if he committed of crime of some sorts and wants to remove fingerprint identification.
"the arrow misses, but bounces around killing 2 thieves that were coming to attack you, takes their wallets and stores them in your pockets before bouncing one more time into gumgums mouth healing him"
Reminds me of an old story a player once told me. They were playing homebrew DnD (I can't remember which version, probably 3E?), with the theme of the campaign being that everyone was a "monster". The party's warrior/tank was a fire elemental, and to mess with them, the DM had the climactic battle in the rain where he took constant environmental damage, and the team's cleric couldn't keep up. Then they realized that several sessions ago, the team's ranger got a magic bow the DM brewed up specifically because the warrior kept complaining that whenever the ranger failed an attack roll, he would get hit in the back. So, the bow turned all damage into fire damage, so it wouldn't hurt him. And the archer also had fire arrows, adding more fire damage. And the fire elemental guy could absorb incoming fire damage to heal himself. In the end, the archer spent the rest of the encounter shooting the warrior over and over again to heal them, freeing up the cleric to do something else. Only in tabletop RPGs can you run into weird stuff like that.
@mod3rnknight189 Well, Fighters can become Archers. Really, there is no limit to what a Fighter can do when it comes to fighting with weapons. Any weapon. They can figure out and use it. Their only weakness is no natural source to control magic.
In an alternate reality “Rolls 1” “You fire your arrow with maximum precision and it hits your target. Gumgum drinks the entire potion only for you to realize at the final moment that you accidentally loaded a vial of spider venom instead of a healing potion.”
Gus seems like such an awesome DM. You got a lot who have to deal with the chaos of their players, and some start breaking at it, while others go along with it. Gus is like "Yeah, do it!" and both encourages it and works around it with relative ease.
I would love to see a whole session recorded like this because I can actually see what is going in there imagination and it would keep me hooked the whole time
One of my dad's NPC characters that are a kind of safety net for the party (bc his campaigns are... VERY difficult) has a bag of holding for the crotch of his pants. He pulls healing potions out of it that are made to be smashed on ppl. You still take like 2 pts of damage, but you get healed lol
One of the weird things we had was a fluted arrow of healing, That did 3D4 -2 healing So 1-10 healing. We kept getting held temporarily while the locals sorted out just wtheck happened
I had a gunmage who was originally a cleric and could put any spell into their bullets. If they wanted to, they could put a healing spell in a bullet and hit someone from 900 ft away.
@@alvinvalentino5797 If the target was vulnerable to healing, probably. Problem was we never got to use it in the oneshot, so we didn't get to test it. But I would imagine since it IS still in a standard bullet casing it would still do 1d6, then heal. Or, we just say *magic* and it just heals with gun slinger flare.
Reminds me of our Duskblade/Cleric in 3.5 DND, he used a club to literally club people back to health! Cuz of the Duskblade spell attack rules he could use one cure spell and attack several times to heal more with it. The trick was to declare them as non-lethal attacks, as normal healing heals both normal hp and an equal number of non-lethal damage. Still a callback we use when playing.
I actually had a build built around doing this in pathfinder, you could use dyebag arrows to do no damage and instead target touch AC, the dm even let me craft them at same cost as being filled with water so that I wouldn't constantly paint the party.
I once used Catapult to throw a healing potion at a party member. As Catapult does damage independent of the item used, it knocked him unconscious before he could drink it to heal. In Wta, I crushed a healing gourd over a Packmembers head with an attack. It did tje same amount of damage that it healed.
Rege-Jean has no right being that handsome. See him in Bridgerton and listen to him in the Sandman audio series 2. He sings in Greek and it's....angelic.
I made a gun that turned touch spell scrolls into shells. It only fired 30 ft. but the rogue used it to maximum advantage with a feat I made that on successful wis save they can keep the spell from being burned up in one go. It was a bit broken at times but the rogue managed to become a clutch back up healer
This is better than the time I flung a healing potion to my dragonborn paladin who had one point of HP and had it smash on his head to bring him back into the fray. Good times! I was too far to just hand it to him; no really too far.
Dang, nobody commented on the fact that it's Jaune Arc's old Crocea Mors sword from "RWBY" stuck in Gumgum. I saw his shield a couple times with other skits, so I'm not surprised anymore to see it here, but still. O.o
in one of my old 2013 first goes in DnD I was a golem. And in our party we had a mage. A lot of times of stuffing that little fire cannon inside my chest cavity to do all kinds of funny shit
