The fact that, in this episode, the guys want to punish the boyfriend for the note received by the DM that wrote out their partner from the campaign makes my heart so happy for some reason? 😭 I love that they had the mindset that the boyfriend could have done better in that situation! It was refreshing!

2024-06-01 13:45:40 +0000 UTCI would rule in favor of the monk/rogue player because multiclassing into monk has now locked them out of wearing armor forever if they want to punch with dex, plus they used a feat to get the unarmed fighting style instead of 1 level of fighter or something so their stats are going to lag from that. I would give them any help they needed at that point to facilitate their character with how squishy they would be as a melee fighter with monk ac and d8 hit dice.

2024-01-09 06:47:20 +0000 UTCRAW sneak attack is thankfully only once per turn so it doesn't factor in with multiple attacks (either as Rogue or having Level 5 martial Extra Attack)
Justin Dorland
2023-07-06 19:37:07 +0000 UTCA few guesses as to why Monk is incompatible with sneak attack: 1) Monks have the most potential attacks/turn early on (extra attack and 2 unarmed strikes with flurry of blows) so they'd have a lot more opportunities to do the sneak attack damage, whereas a usual rogue might miss on their main attack or offhand bonus action. They may have wanted to avoid assuring the sneak attack hitting. 2) It might be just to avoid being able to assassinate people incredibly effectively with no weapons, that'd be tough for dms trying to run high-intrigue campaigns.

2023-04-12 23:32:30 +0000 UTCFor me the monk/rogue thing is fine because monk unarmed strike at first level is a d4, so it’s basically the same as getting a sneak attack on a dagger, and you only get sneak attack once per turn so it doesn’t seem broken to me. If you took enough monk levels to deal let’s say 1d8 per unarmed strike plus sneak attack on top of that, that could get a little broken, but I don’t know off the top of my head how many monk levels that would be, and this person sounds like they only took one level of monk so you wouldn’t even have ki at that point. If I was their DM I’d be fine with it.

2022-08-22 14:31:53 +0000 UTCIn call of Cthulhu magic makes you mad because there you are an average Joe thrust into a magical horror world... Like this campaign and it's a lot of fun to have that extra threat and to see how the dm changes the world for you as you go mad. But Cthulhu has options other than magic that a DND spellcaster doesn't have. Here's what I'd rule as the dm. Start with playing with madness (allies also roll when you're magic affects them so it's more fair). If it's fun add in a mechanic to use an action to center yourself and role for sanity instead of madness. If it's not fun make it so that the character gets used to magic and the accumulated madness goes away as their brain adapts

2022-08-22 12:48:42 +0000 UTCTsk tsk mr tanner. Anyone ever play jade empire? The white demon fighting style is one punch to take someone out that's obviously strength, but thousand cuts style is hitting someone a ton of little times to hit as many pressure points as possible (the definition of dexterity) which makes fists (if you are trained... Like a monk) finesse

2022-08-20 16:46:00 +0000 UTCA couple of times as DM, I've had a person who is new to DND want to join an ongoing campaign that was already at like level 8 or 9. My current technique for this is to basically help them build a 2nd level character, but with the HP of a character the same level as everybody else so they don't die in the first fireball lol Then as they get used to playing, I add the rest of their class abilities over the span of a few sessions, until they're caught up

There’s some interesting real life precedent someone posted on Reddit a while ago. https://www.reddit.com/r/legaladvice/comments/34l7vo/ma_postit_notes_left_in_apartment/ It could play out like a hangover special

Lucas
2022-08-20 11:32:21 +0000 UTCFor the madness case, it sounds like the DM has played a bit of call of Cthulhu before! As it’s low fantasy, you have to do “sanity rolls” when encountering magic or monsters to see how close you are to losing your shit, and then you go past a certain threshold where you get a disadvantage on rolls (I think!) - only problem is that you need another player with a good “psychology” ability to get you back to normal, so unless the DM wants to make a mechanic for this it doesn’t seem like it’d be fun for you!

Ewan
2022-08-20 09:09:16 +0000 UTCThat first case is the best example of "not RAW, but also objectively weaker than existing options and makes sense in synergy and realism (martial arts exploit weak spots!). Even if you tried to multiclass and reached 1d10 damage dice on unarmed, you'd still only get a couple dice of sneak attack _once per turn_ anyway. Absolutely gets my thumbs up if someone wants to.
