Same, I can't watch live, so I usually put the vod on while while at work. Wish I could pop into the live stream for a quick dono and hear their reactions a few days later when the vod comes out.
@@Crispi1260that makes sense, if they want to restrict it to members I understand. The part that confused me was that some videos would still have the donation section which made me think removing them was just a stylistic choice.
@@spectra20000 I think it’s more for the algorithm. People tend to turn off at the donos, so they’re usually cut out because it tends to hurt the viewing figures or something if people switch off early. Rarely, they may just forget to remove them.
A suggestion on the Fate system, instead of the pool simply being the DM and the Player, I suggest a third pool in which spent fate sits untill gained, how its gained would be up to the DM, I feel the reason players dont want to spend it is due to the DM's pool of dice increasing and therefore being negative for them.
I’m gonna be really sad when they have to fight the corrupted green dragon inevitably mostly because I like dragons and don’t want to see it get corrupted, but still I hope there’s a way to save her
I just thought of an interesting devils bargain for this specific situation. My hope is that it doesn’t happen, of course, and the dragon hasn’t been forced fed the Crown steel yet when they save her but as a interesting devils bargain xantheus could be given the opportunity to absorb the Crown steel from the dragon safely, but subsequently he would, of course have more crown steel corrupting him. Not to mention the ramifications it would have with both the group and obsidious. It would be an interesting conflict because he did it to save the green dragon, but also he is now further corrupted himself and is an even greater danger to everyone around him and himself. It would be especially interesting to see how gruff would take it. He would either be conflicted because xan saved the green dragon but became more corrupted or he would just be mad I don’t know which though lol
If I had a nickel for every time Tom and Kim’s characters had a heated discussion in a campaign, I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice, right?
This is fun tho! Now Kim gets to be on the morally right side! If Xan somehow drags Ophelia into it in order to avoid talking about it, THEN it will be weird😂
Where's the fan art of the plant dude? I wanted to get a visual of what he looks like... So I can make minor changes and turn him into a good boyfriend.
Yeah D&D Beyond just shat all over 2014 rules recently, forcing through new rules. My character sheet is a complete mess with 3 different versions of the same spell from different sources and even 3 spells that are from the new rules that I can’t use and that I can’t remove.
Oh look. DNDBeyond's horrible 2024 rollout impacting even live plays and not just home games. Maybe 1 or possibly 2 Hasbro execs gets one less stock buy back and they hire enough programmers to fix DNDB.
I agree. Tbf, it's always weird when PCs argue morality on how other PCs kill their enemies (ignoring torture where the purpose is to prolong suffering way before death occurs)
@@1Lanavis1 I don’t believe it was the fact that he killed them like that that made gruff upset. I believe it may have been a bit of meta-gaming on Kim’s part where she was commenting on how Tom constantly said that his character was focusing on that one specific character and was angry. Don’t get me wrong she could have probably seen it in character as well, but since no one drew attention to that specific point, I can only conclude it was Meta gaming . This might have been what they were talking about when they said that Gruff never said what he was meaning.
ANTI SPOILER BARRIER
Apologies for the tardiness!
Put up the spoiler barrier my friends. This series is way too good to get spoiled :)
You really feel, hear and see Toms sadistic nature when burning the opponents to crisp The glee and enjoyment of the power and their death.
😮.
That little animated bit of Tom's nat 20 saving throws has me dying
Someone actually making the Clever Toad machine is killing me. I want one
FOR THE EMPRESS!!!! FOR THE ALGORITHM!!!!!
D&D Beyond is correct, those are the new (2024) Unarmed Strike rules which include Grapple and Shove. They aren't Monk only, anybody can do them.
Really appreciate the fun edits during the intro, it makes being a VOD goblin fun. I just wish we got the donation readings back.

FYI they are available to members on the early VoD that is released. I know it’s not quite the same, but they are there.

@@Crispi1260 That makes a lot of sense, thanks for the input Crispi.
Blessed be Tom and his audio sync skills!
Marks impression of Obi Wan Kenobi was on point!
That fan animation is absolutely amazing 😂
Loving Xan going wild with his crownsteel and the Vampire Diaries vibes from Ophelia 👀🩸

Seeing edits in the intro is so incredibly funny to me, I can't wait for episode 50 when the vod intro is indescribably different to the live stream
Me while Xantheus and Rowan speaking Draconic: Wow thats deep guys!. (laughed a lot at that scene ,good episode lol!)
Kim's face @ 30:55 is the perfect balance of horrified and disgusted. Mark really painted a gruesome picture 😶🌫
Hahaha love that cartoon of Althean Jesus moment, really great.
Finally all caught up! I cant wait for the next episode.
I was drawing my D&D characters throughout this episode. Some of the fan art was excellent!
IT'S MORPHIN TIME
or is it
IT'S BORFIN TIME
Ya know sometimes I just be looking at Tom and start thinking where does he get his shirts.
that vault was interesting, and I can't wait to see more of them!
I think that chainmail would also be good for Percy, I don't remember if he has armor or not, but it might be helpful
my favorite DnD channel!
I kept wanting them to remember the sacred’s dagger. I know it is easier to remember when you are watching and not playing.
"Its fine, you're the one that'll have to edit it out mate. Making work for yourself!"
Little did mark now he would NOT edit it out
Pretty sure he means for the podcast version
Fan art, cosplay and animations are amazing!! :D!
Chaos bolt is the only use case where i can imagine using crit rules that don’t simply add more dice being a detriment.
the real toad was amazing!
FOR THE ALGORITHM!
Damn it, I’ve caught up

48:30 Was that a Game Grumps “My name’s Lauraaaaa” ref? 😂
Finally caught up!
Yesss I crave this upload ❤
Gahhhh always check for traps!!!
Yes, this pleases me....

If I had a dollar for every time I skipped forward 10 seconds during Kim monologue, I'd be apologising if I offended anyone...from my helicopter
Fun fact: that saying was entirely made up by the show Phineas and ferb
This series is great! That is all
another amazing ep :)
How does rhi still not remember she has a way to identify things?
In before the birb

Mark described them last episode as being influenced by the Sylvaneth from Warhammer 40k: Age of Sigmar.
the cameras should be more zoomed in!
They're called the Reclaimers.
I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) is by the Proclaimers.
Makes me want to break out a squirt bottle.
Wooo
Did anyone figure out what the jacket was referencing?

I will never forgive them for taking away bonus action smites for Paladins!
Xantheus did NOTHING wrong.

There's a deeper issue here.
Is there a reason that they're not using Mage hands for recovering the documents?
