    I had no doubts and I can’t wait to see the fights to follow!!! Just FYI On average it takes the Yuan-ti three rounds to kill the Intellect Devourer and with winning initiative the chances of landing the stun is 94% So the poor Snake had around a 6% chance of winning this encounter Intellect Devourer: Claws +4 to hit vs 14 AC 55% chance to hit Devour Intellect DC 12 Intelligence save 65% chance for Yuan-ti to fail save Claws (7x0.55)=3.85 Critical (5x0.05)=0.25 Devour Intellect (11x0.65)=7.15 On failure 3d6 rolled if the total is 6 or higher Yuan-ti is stunned and default killed Chance of rolling a 6 or higher is 95.37% Total DPR=11.25 would have increase due to advantage from Yuan-ti reckless feature Chance of hitting with Devour Intellect and rolling 6 or higher are 62% Round 2 chance 86% Round 3 chance 94% Round 4 chance 98% Round 5 chance 99% Yuan-ti Broodguard +4 to hit vs 12 AC 65% chance to hit / 87% with advantage All attacks will be with advantage Bite (6.5x0.87)=5.65 Critical (4.5x0.0975)=0.43 Claws (11x0.87)=9.57 Critical (7x0.0975)=0.68 Total DPR=16.33 After resistance DPR=8.16 Three rounds to kill

    Like I figured but didn’t expect it to be such a one sided duel! The Cultist really should’ve just tried dealing damage Command is an amazing control spell but unless your using it to make a enemy flee and proc a bunch of opportunity attacks it doesn’t do much for damage and that’s what the cultist needed in this fight He should’ve just used Inflict Wounds that still wouldn’t match the Ogre but it would’ve kept it a close fight Cult fanatic: Dagger 70% Spells 65% Dagger (9x0.70)=6.3 Critical (5x0.05)=0.25 Total DPR=6.55 Spiritual Weapon (5.5x0.65)=3.57 Critical (4.5x0.05)=0.22 Total DPR=3.79 Inflict Wounds 1st level (16.5x0.65)=10.72 Critical (16.5x0.05)=0.82 Total DPR=11.54 Four 1st level slots Inflict Wounds 2nd level (22x0.65)=14.3 Critical (22x0.05)=1.1 Total DPR=15.4 Three 2nd level slots 46.2+11.54x2=69.28 Five rounds to kill Ogre: Club 70% (13x0.70)=9.1 Critical (9x0.05)=0.45 Total DPR=9.55 Four Rounds to kill

    • @DungeonBoy-TTRPG
      @DungeonBoy-TTRPG 3 дня назад

      Sometimes that’s the way it goes in the arena! I figure that the Cult Fanatic would have gone for Command over anything else in an attempt to escape more than anything else. While these fights are about the damage output, it’s also worth considering how the creatures would respond to the circumstance. I think the CF has enough intelligence to realise that staying in Ogre range is a terrible idea, but maybe not quite enough to push through its fear with logic to realise that an all out assault is its best bet to achieve victory. As always though, the numbers don’t lie!

    This was surprisingly close considering how mathing this out, optimally the nothic would just spam rotting gaze every turn, and essentially every single attack in the fight is a 50/50 on if it lands or not, since the animated armour needs an 11 or better to save the rotting gaze, whilst it needs an 11 or better to hit the animated armour, so on average, the animated armour attacking twice means it will usually hit once, like it did this fight, dealing 5.5 damage on average, the nothic would hit every other turn, dealing 10.5 damage on avergae each hit, so 5.25 dpr, with 12 extra hp the fight was stacked in the nothic's favour (Not gonna fully explain the methods but claws have an average dpr in this fight of 4.55, so it wasn't super suib optimal to attempt them in the hopes the fight is a little more exciting than just flipping coins all day) so it was lucky the animated armour made it as close as it did, especially with the nothic essentially getting af ree turn due to winning initiative getting it that spacing trap to make the armour dash on round 1.

  • @Red-jb2zj

    This was very exciting due to how quick everything happened. However, being an old head (playing since A-D&D) and open to instant death rules the ogre would have lost as soon as it started to grovel. Being helpless the target would be vulnerable to an auto hit at x5 damage because it could not defend itself. Possibly just a house rule, I could not find this anywhere but my own memories. However, as a DM, I would have not have given the Ogre its opportunity attack, due to groveling, while the opponent withdrew.

    • @DungeonBoy-TTRPG
      @DungeonBoy-TTRPG 8 дней назад

      That is an absolutely brutal rule! In 5e, as far as attacks go, going prone only imposes disadvantage on a prone creatures attacks, and gives the attacker of said prone creature advantage on attacks against it. I can see why people say AD&D was brutal, x5 times damage for any reason is absolutely nuts 😂 I’d quite like to play it at some point to experience the madness!

    • @Red-jb2zj
      @Red-jb2zj 7 дней назад

      ​@@DungeonBoy-TTRPG I like it because it gives my players other build options that do something else besides throwing out as much damage as possible. It also makes monsters that can cause paralysis, sleep or the restrained condition a lot more dangerous. So you might want to remind them that the x5 goes both ways if you decide to use it in the future. I also use another auto kill rule that's completely home brew. Score a critical hit, you roll the D20 again. Score a second critical hit (Death hit), roll the D20 a third time to beat armor. If roll 3 is a success, the target is dead unless its huge or bigger. The target is dead if its below half health, otherwise deal x5 for huge or x4 for gargantuan.

  • @TheManWithOneSock

    No offense but you ran the Fanatic very poorly in this one. There are so many things the fanatic could/should have done in this fight. Hold person would have been a much better option than command. Not to mention running away from the ogre without using shield of faith or disengage made little sense. A hold person mixed with inflict wounds would've possibly dealt 6d10 damage (or 8d10 if upcasted at 2nd level).

    • @DungeonBoy-TTRPG
      @DungeonBoy-TTRPG 8 дней назад

      This one was a toughie, especially as the Ogre got the initiative. Unfortunately hold person does not work against the ogre as it isn’t a humanoid, but a giant. The plan with using the command word grovel was to allow the cult fanatic to escape, hopefully avoiding the ogres attack at disadvantage, which would then force the ogre to use half movement to stand which would only allow it to move within 20ft of the fanatic. Had that have worked, the CF would then have dropped spiritual weapon and sacred flame, potentially setting up for an inflict wounds should it have survived the ogres onslaught the turn after. In an ideal world, the CF would have succeeded on the first command, which would have allowed for an inflict wounds at advantage if grovel forced the ogre prone. When I run these, I also try to factor in intelligence levels, and from my outlook, the CF was set on grovel to begin with, and witnessing a giant barrel of angry muscle charging it down would likely not give it much room to think of other words outside that which it prepared tactically. That being said, flee would have been a viable option, although the Ogre could the move back into range, throw its javelin, and go from there. This was a very difficult fight for the CF which relies mostly on CC options. I would have liked that first command to have hit though… the 2nd level inflict wounds could have changed things up.

    I love both these Monsters and always enjoy running Ghasts or Ghouls in my games unfortunately they both are far more deadly in groups due to the low chance that one can keep the enemy paralyzed for their next turn Also one thing to point out and of course I believe the Allosaurus would use it’s pounce on round one because why wouldn’t it use it’s features right? The Bite actually does just slightly more damage than the Claw and Pounce that being said it’s so minor that it wouldn’t change the outcome in the math at least but of course eating a opportunity attack definitely isn’t worth using the feature especially when it deals less damage Allosaurus: +6 to hit vs 13 AC 70% chance to hit Will use pounce on first round Ghast has 45% chance to fail Strength save Round 1 Claw (8.5x0.70)=5.95 Critical (4.5x0.05)=0.22 Chance of hitting with Claw and Ghast failing save is 31.5% Attack will be with advantage due to prone 91% chance to hit with advantage Bite with advantage (15x0.91)=13.65 With chance of pounce (13.65x0.315)=4.29 Critical (11x0.0975)=1.07 With chance of pounce (1.07x0.315)=0.33 Round one DPR=10.79 Round 2+ Allosaurus will use bite Bite (15x0.70)=10.5 Critical (11x0.05)=0.55 Round 2+ DPR=11.05 Four rounds to kill Ghast: +5 to hit vs 13 AC 65% chance to hit Claws (10x0.65)=6.5 Critical (7x0.05)=0.35 25% chance of Allosaurus failing save Probability of following saves Allosaurus would need to fail two saves back to back to be hit with auto crit 6% chance of happening Will have advantage on paralyzed target Auto crit round 2+ (17x0.87)=14.79 (14.79x0.06)=0.88 Round 1 DPR=6.85 Round 2+ DPR= 7.73 Seven rounds to kill

    it feels like just using bite and never trying to claw would have ended the battle 2 turns faster

    • @DungeonBoy-TTRPG
      @DungeonBoy-TTRPG 16 дней назад

      Definitely a valid option for the allosaurus, its bite is one tough attack, especially for a CR 2 monster! Saying that, the main advantage of pounce is that if it gets the claw attack off and knocks the target prone, it gets to use bite at advantage, so doubles up on attacks while also making it more likely to land the big hitter! I try and play the monsters accounting for behaviour as well, so while I do think you’re right with the pure bite attacks having the chance to end things quicker, I think the allosaurus would have gone for the pounce option as part of its nature. Also, using the abilities where they make sense is fun, haha.

    Rooting for the Allo to win the tournament. I like dinos and I think it would be funny if in the tournament full for mystical magical creatures, just a dinosaur who has no real idea what is going on wins.😂

  • @HAOSxy
    @HAOSxy 21 день назад

    Funnily enough, the average Ettercap might have higher mental stats than the average Barbarian, therefore it is plausible that after getting stuck in a large web, an adventurer would hear "there he is FUCKING RUSH HIM" with a bunch of Ettercaps running towards him.

    • @DungeonBoy-TTRPG
      @DungeonBoy-TTRPG 20 дней назад

      Haha, not far wrong there. I’m sure the Barbarian would only feel more slighted about the cowardly method of capture on display, thus only increasing their rage, meaning that a dog pile of Ettercaps would be the only way to make them sit still!

  • @shadowmetal1374
    @shadowmetal1374 21 день назад

    The slayer of mimics gets their time in the spotlight! The idea of enemies in DND that can know your exact location without eyesight is scary, but in the case of an Ettercap it's even scarier because it can tell where you are while you're in that vulnerable state of being webbed. Even just one could pose an issue to a party if it's sneaky enough at separating them.

    • @DungeonBoy-TTRPG
      @DungeonBoy-TTRPG 21 день назад

      If I could do a feature for each battle victor I totally would! Need me some more time 😂 Agreed. The concept of touching some random webs in a forest only to have a circle of Ettercaps track you down from the shadows is terrifying. For sure, a solo Ettercap was the first monster to down a PC of mine too, so they have a special place of fear reserved in my brain 😂

    First of all.. CATS! Pet the cats..! - Oh the ettercap.. Yeah this is again somehow a monster I've never fielded. A literal spider-man! Elusive indeed... Unsure where I could use the creature, but I will find the way. I did have my group run into a group of giant spiders recently.. hmm. This video and others on this channel are convincing me I should use more of the classics...

      Glad to hear it, always room to squeeze in some OG monsters. You could homebrew some bits to find ways to better incorporate, there are some terrifying variants out there! The urge to pet cats is real 😂 They’re called Merry and Pippin, and truly embody the hobbit aesthetic! While I’m editing videos Pippin will just be sat on me for the entire duration, I’ll have to get a shot of it for the community page!

    A close matchup like I thought And definitely could’ve gone either way depending on the dice the Nothic was smart making the Animated armor Dash the first round and all in all both it’s attacking options are similar in damage so liked to see them mix things up! Animated Armor: Slam + 4 to hit vs 15 AC 50% chance to hit (11x0.50)=5.5 Critical (7x0.05)=0.35 Total DPR=5.85 Eight rounds to kill Nothic: Claw + 4 to hit vs 18 AC 35% chance to hit (13x0.35)=4.55 Critical (7x0.05)=0.35 Total DPR=4.9 Seven rounds to kill Rotting Gaze DC 12 50% chance for animated armor to fail save (10.5x0.50)=5.25 Total DPR=5.25 Seven rounds to kill

    • @DungeonBoy-TTRPG
      @DungeonBoy-TTRPG 21 день назад

      Very close indeed. I could run this again and have them do identical actions and it would likely be different every time! Animated armor just couldn’t slam hard enough this time.

    • @razorice0007
      @razorice0007 14 дней назад

      Nothic could have forced a second dash in round 2 as well. If it dashed round 3, baiting an opportunity attack, it could have forced another dash and gotten a gaze off round 4. Armor only gets one attack every other round while Nothic gets a gaze every other round for a much longer, but much more one-sided fight. The strategy in the video was way more exciting, though
