>>97248672>Exactly 0% of Combat professionals will miss a shot at point blank range against a target that's standing still. Meanwhile every single D&D character will fail to hit a straw dummy with a stick 5% of the time.NTA but you don't roll an attack to hit a dummy. You don't roll for things that don't have a reasonable chance of failure or success. It's right there in the DMG. Probably in the PHB too and nowhere is it implied that hitting a stationary inanimate object has any chance of failure unless we are taking into account extreme range or low visibility. Even if such conditions exist in the scenario of a shooting range with no distractions you can just use the take 10 rule. I would, and if that wasn't enough I would call for a roll or a take 20 depending on the situation.>Take 10 is only possible if you are not distracted.Yes. Because if you are distracted you can fail, spectacularly even, in things that you wouldn't otherwise. This isn't strange or peculiar. A short distraction can turn your every day drive to work to a fatal car accident. It happens.>Yes they are, they are even given explicit DCsSet DCs don't necessarily imply rolls.>There are also instances like walking across a 2x4 that the average level 1 commoner can't beat even if they take 10In 3.5? I don't think so. They will have to have a dexterity score lower than 10 and there is no RAW to achieve that on average.
>>97248672>Yes it is, the average is 10.5No it isn't, the average is around 13. With either 4d6 drop the lowest(PHB) or point-buy(DMG). Of course if you are using point-buy the average score is meaningless.

>>97250265Magick is such a silly word. Magic IS a game of punking. Magick is just another way of saying “it’s capital-m Magic!”, lol. No different from saying “no it’s a miracle not magic!”, or “no it’s nature not magic!”, etc, as though the ancients didn’t see the two (nature and magic/religion) as these inseparable fields. The words change but the essences stay the same. The modern day wizard is just the mad scientist, doing arcane things.

I’m running a low fantasy game, and social advancement is gonna be a thing. So the PCs are gonna be rubbing elbows with a lot of noble families as they make their way into high society. I’m just asking for NPCs and ideas.Most of the nobility are humans, but a few are half-elves and halflings.
>>97242977Your idea is as generic and soulless as your photobashed garbage.>>97233040Merchant that can rent out fine furniture and garments for cheap. Handy for down on their luck nobles to keep up the appearance or to impress an important guest. Rumors about their clientele make for fine gossip and while their services helped more than a few people to save their face, secure a deal, or cheat their way into high society they have also been proven to be a downward spirale for others.
>>97251270>If you're aiming for maximum believability, there's almost no way that humans would accept a different species ruling them. They struggle enough with humans of different nationalities ruling them (William of Normandy had to practically burn down England before they stopped revolting at the idea of a Norman King).I will clarify that the half-elven (as in humans with significant elven ancestry) and halfling nobles are mostly ruling over other half-elves/halflings, or areas that have integrated for centuries at this point.
>>97251505Whats wrong with it? It's a classic trope.
>>97242977This looks like shit.
>>97252769I mean yeah, that’s what makes it lame. It’d be like if the OP was asking for evil humanoids to fill out the setting and you posted “Orcs that murder and pillage” and an AI slop orc that looks like a cross between Thrall and the Harvey Weinstein orc from LOTR.

>>97183880If you knew how many ugly assholes managed to get hot girls in bed, you'd understand.
>>97218759By definition, as described under "unarmed attacks" bites count as unarmed attacks, so they qualify for the powerful fist ability."Certain ancestry feats, class features, and spells give access to special, more powerful unarmed attacks. For instance, goblins with the razortooth heritage can attack with their sharp jaws."
>>97189848>>97190019It's amazing how many people fail to realize this part.
>>97256144Draconic Acolyte isn't really Disciple. It's pretty clear that Dragonblooded is where you go for all the "be a dragon" feats like Scaly Hide and claws. Acolyte is more like a Final Fantasy Summoner or Lyria from Granblue, more about calling a dragon spirit and using that. It's cool but I rather have a real Disciple remaster over needing to take an heritage slot.
>>97250702Casters have worse saves all around, many martials actually have better Will saves and some will even have evasion on them before casters are at 3 expert saves. On top of Stupefied not actually doing anything to most martials, every other class would not have gotten fucked by it. Enfeebled is a joke for most classes. Clumsy is equally as bad for casters as for most martials just because they are already at worse AC, so putting them lower is asking to be crit on a sub 10 number. They're probably also making a lot of the same reflex saves just because spell range is pretty bad overall. Drained is equally bad for everyone and definitely the strongest of these four, but also the rarest. So, this actually is a caster debate when casters are more likely to get hit with these effects, and suffering more from them.As someone who casts Befuddle a lot, you fuck over enemy casters with it way more than you do anything else. And this is acknowledging that you can absolutely dumpster an enemy's Will save with it.

Took me a while to check back in...>>97232721>Good seeing you around Mekton.Cheers, /m/ate!>Glad that I’m on the right track by the sound of it. More confident just seeing that others have the same solution. That bit about damage to armor vs unarmored works naturally with my system just from how damage reduction works.Excellent! Happy my yammering was useful or encouraging in some way. >>97232866>Shotguns have their appeal for me in either just being unga bunga "close range big damage" because it's coolHell yeah mang!>or for using them as scatter blasters to pick off sensitive parts like optics and light vehicles. So you could give them a flak-like effect with a chance for inflicting damage to outer parts.Yeah, or "increased criticals" or something. Agreed, in most mecha anime it seems like the spray of smaller projectiles often tend to damage smaller, more sensitive bits of a bigger target. Like that Clay Bazooka vs Asshimar clip, a good example.>>97234680Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>97250544>"How do you do Ace Customs? Are there any? Do they have improved performance, or are the exact same as other mechs with a different finish?"In Mekton Z, you can build anything (pretty much) so you could just design a version of whatever grunt unit that's little better. Faster, more maneuverable, better armor or weapons, whatever. There's also "Maneuver Pool," which is a metacurrency pilots developed when their Piloting skill gets above 5. There's a Mekton tech feature called A.C.E. (Actuator Control Electronics) which multiplies a pilot's Maneuver Pool. So an ace pilot with a Piloting of 7 in a grunt unit would have a 2 points in his Maneuver Pool, but in an ace custom unit with 2.5x A.C.E. would have 5 points in his Maneuver Pool.The Gundam RPG that was based on Mekton Z actually called the A.C.E. system "Ace Custom" and called the Manuever Pool "Ace Points." I thought was a great idea and I wish I'd thought of it.

Why does this thread treat TCG/CCG devs like shit?
>>97256624>Why does this thread treat TCG/CCG devs like shit?Not all devs suck, but some of them definitely need some kind of reality check. But to be fair, sometimes the issues TCGs see are executive/investor focused.
>>97256624This is why we can't have cute and charming things
>>97256624There's more replies praising than hating 1st of all. Secondly, quite a lot of them actively do things that are anti-consumer so a lot of criticism is valid and based in reality. Especially when there are good companies that actively try not to be shitty to the people buying their stuff
>Nagas>Opidians>Serpentmen>Yuan-tiSnake and person. Snerson? Discuss all things snakepeople related here. These guys are my go-to mid-level baddies, they're so fucking cool and evil.
>>97252313>>97252324IIRC cats depend much for hunting prowess on their mothers teaching them how to hunt.Considering how little nowdays cats can hunt (well, at least comparing them to the absolute range-free cats of a century ago) I would assume what we're seeing is cultural degradation more than anything else. Even if a cat had a great grandmother huntress and now it can roam free, the generations that lost the arts of hunting would severely hurt its ability now.
>>97252313Ctas generally aren't very good for killing rats. Full-grown rats are rather large, and cats prefer smaller prey like mice. Dogs are much better for killing rats, and there are breeds of dogs bred specifically for hunting rats and other pests.
>>97251725With sneasure.
>>97256505not snakey enough
>>97255630Depends on the species. Adult brown (Norwegian/Wharf) rats get to 28 cm (11 in) excluding tail while adult black (Ship) rats are about half that at ~15 cm (~6 in) excluding tail. Considering that adult domestic cats are usually 36 cm to 46 cm (14 in to 18 in), brown rats are likely out of their weight class. The location the study in >>97252313 was done at is dominated by brown rats which likely biased the study.
You should ALWAYS cheese every encounter. If you EVER end up in a situation that even remotely resembles a fair fight, just run away and wait until you can rig the situation to your favor. Use your fucking brain. Even if it is highly improbable for you to lose a given fight, statistically speaking, you'll still eventually croak if you keep taking those bets. Don't leave it up to chance. It's easier than you might think, you just need to use your noggin. It's not a video game. You can do whatever the fuck you want.Just the other night my party ran into a melee monster in a narrow ass room that they for some reason decided to ram their dicks into until someone died. When I suggested that we retreat for a bit and lure it into the room with the big ass statues so we can all just climb them and shoot it to death, they looked at me like I just escaped from the looney bin. They all died of course.
>>97256708In systems that allow it, I tend to make a significant amount of money for the group, yes.But when I'm doing some dungeoneering, I often have to skip the first several entities in a dungeon, as goblins, bandits, and the like tend to be reasonable about things like mutually assured destruction. I'm not sure why weak and cowardly things are so common as low level enemies- that combination makes for an entity that AVOIDS combat.Undead, too, are a problem because of course the undead get angry if you rob them, it's called grave robbing. If you go down there with a bottle of wine and give it to the skeletons, I bet you five bucks they'll just let you pass so long as you don't start stealing.I guess the problem is I need to designate some group that I should murder for money even if I can easily talk past them, in that kind of thing.
>>97256726>I guess the problem is I need to designate some group that I should murder for money even if I can easily talk past them, in that kind of thing.That's easily solvable with fantasy racism.
>>97256726Bandits are an easy group for that. Most of their valuables are stolen anyways, and sometimes the original owners offer a reward
>>97256736Yeah, I suppose. This is all so much easier if I'm just playing someone lawful stupid. Ah, lawbreakers? DEATH! Orcs? DEATH! A sultan of a nearby kingdom which does not share our cultural mores? Is he wealthy? DEATH!I guess I've always been too objective focused, and not distracting myself with murder enough.>>97256743If the job is to remove the bandits, sure, but most times you just need to get past the bandits.
