Monty sounds so proud of his players growth of being able to form any kind of plan lmao. Sorcerer king's beware.
The great and valiant Pluto Jackson performed a "regrouping" maneuver. That's what is written in the book.
I know this is early but just wanted to wish you the very best of luck on your Kickstarter. I will be backing and Im sure plenty other of people here will be supporting you as well.
Much appreciated!
Well, there’s not mushroom left for more fungus puns!
They do kind of grow on you😂.
@@SirfinchyyyThat’s a spore excuse for a joke!
Oh micelia!
The doff their caps.
Well if your a fun gi, theres always more puns around these woods to pluck
I think Monty is having waaaaaayyyyy too much fun playing Hagitha❤.
Also, you really missed out on blowing up another hag cauldron with fireball. Sebastian is probably dissapointed with that😂.
Welcome Drak, to Backenhiem
Monty AMAZING Hagatha voice and dialogue. I loved it and appreciate your dming style.
Looking forward to more stories of the TROLL KILLER! 🧌
The brave Sir Pluto, he bravely ran away.
Jills hair looks awesome!
Time for the hunt to continue!
I am finally able to pledge to a Kickstarter and I'm so excited to be able to support you guys!
I was so excited to support them the first time around. Sadly I haven't been able to lately but that's why I try to keep up with their RUclips and whatnot
@@theorycrafters7281 I did the core set and the special book, I did enough to cover for you!
The dynamic you guys have is awesome and hilarious. Absolutely love the characters.
So much fun watching you all play lower level characters in support of Pluto Jackson 🍄
Monty's cackle is really great. As is Pluto's Theme Tune.
I’m not sure why, but parts of that intro song reminds me of Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island
Hagatha is awesome! Monty and the team clearly are LOVING this character.
I cant wait for my book and Bruce of Holding
You know, these flashbacks are allegedly to promote the new book. But I'm beginning to suspect they're actually a way for Monty to give them a chance to practice planning and strategy ahead of the current Arc. Lol
When a horse dies in Drakkenheim you have to kick it for good luck. 😂
Looks like Pluto's keeping 'em in the dark and feeding them bullcr@p!
.......and then he's does the same to the mushrooms!
Playing Lizard to stop a monster from killing you is now cannon.
This is the best Spin-Off ever! 🔥
I will hold off supporting this Kickstart until I get my Sébastien kickstarter.
Yea. It's been years. Can't support another kickstart without getting the previous kickstart products.
Was I the only one that couldn't get Adrenalin O.D.'s album HumungousFungusAmongus out of my head during the entirety of this episode?
🎶 All the fungal ladies, all the fungal ladies
All the fungal ladies, all the fungal ladies
All the fungal ladies, all the fungal ladies
All the fungal ladies,
Now put your hands up, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh 🎶
I admit, there was part of me that wanted to see the party die. Not to be a jerk, but after watching Joe's sense of comic timing I figure modern Pluto Jackson would jump in an say, "Okay, bad example!"
Love that you added the stat blocks in the description! Would the mechanics of an epic boss work in a 1 on 1 game session?
Wow, a great fight, using a plan.
Nice shirt there hermano I have one myself. Backed the kickstarter
First Kickstarter I've backed. I've been incredibly frustrated with the game I'm playing an artificer in. Your crafting system is a game changer and I can't wait to implement it in the game I'm starting up this weekend.
Already bought in!
The theme song is so dope
Weakened is a good condition! I run a game with 5th graders for my son’s school club. We use Weakened instead of Bloodied cause of school and being age appropriate.
Brave Sir Pluto ran away. Bravely ran away away. When danger reared its evil head, he bravely turned his tail and fled...
Honestly backing purely for Bruce Dice bag but it's nice that this dice bag comes with a free book/j. excited to see what terrifying monster you make so I can throw them at my players.
One two get in my stew!
Three four, your bones hit the floor!!😂
Monty does Hag a little too good, lol.
@1:00:00 10 dmg aura on 30 feet area is huge specially at this level. And if someone drops to 0 hp, it gives automatic death rolls too... And damage at the begin of the round is even worse, because you cannot even act before it hits... Also having hag & hugo fights back to back makes this fight even more deadly.
And when party has only low level healing available, the damage is more than they can give even if they cast healing every round...
I'd chance these stats to 5 dmg and 10 feet area... Specially at this level. This would allow party to get dropped party members away from death zone and they could use hack and run tactics. Monster could also move right next to heroes, so threat of the instant damage remains there (depending on turn order).
Please make your next short a compilation of the fungal trolling noises
were the stat blocks from this episode going to be availble?
Plans are nothing. Planning is everything.
3rd ultimate edition set ^_^
Silvery barbs is so broken. It’s banned at my table for this same reason.
Would it be possible to see character and monster stats on the lower left instead of the crest, or along with it in the alternation cycle? Thank you DDs.
Is there any way to get a hard cover SCGD added on with a Monsters of Drakkenheim order?
There was no retreat! It was a Forward Advance to the Rear!
1:22:38 I know of a band called Mushroomhead that plays great beats
So completely crushing if?
Approaching 500k / 20k $ ?
Does anyone else get a lot of 4E vibes from the new conditions? I am not complaining, 4E had some great ideas. Bleeding damage was a fun character build.
Yes, we draw a lot of inspiration from 4E.
@@DungeonDudes 4E gets a lot of flack but I really enjoyed it playing it and running it.
Hey does anyone know what is going on with the ghost fire game thing they had for the Kickstarter? I gave a dollar for access to some exclusive dice set for it? I don’t know how I can connect that purchase when I back them on the Kickstarter
Htere is not mushroom on the battle field anymore
YoU cAn ReAd?! LoL NeRd!! 😆😂
~_~
Did future Kelly come his hair?
Shouldn't the fire element stay regardless of whether the caster hold concentration? It's just no longer your ally.
Not to nitpick, but isn't a grapple attack an athletics roll?
Here is a wild absurd amount of damage power build I thought you would find amusing.
Build
With this build I plan to achieve the most possible average damage from one character with one turn of setup for Spirit Shroud. Then a supernova round of damage. All of the ability scores will be at the pre requisite amount to multiclass. I will walk you through the thought process, turn progression, class levels, feats and ASI’s, along with the damage calculations. This build needs to be going first in combat with a surprise round.
This is a level 20 character build and I will be using the Point by Method for ability scores. The background does not matter. I chose criminal/spy for flavor. This build does not take any equipment into account for any part of my calculations. This is all natural.
The original ability scores are as follows. 8,14,12,15,10,13
For the race I chose +2 in DEX and +1 in INT.
My new scores are 8,16,12,16,10,13
There will be one ASI that increases my INT by +2. This will bring my finale total to
8,16,12,18,10,13
Race
Bugbear from Monsters of the Multiverse for its racial ability. Surprise Attack If you hit a creature with an attack roll, the creature takes an extra 2d6 damage if it hasn’t taken a turn yet in the current combat.
This does not specify once per turn or for weapon attacks only.
Also for free stealth proficiency.
Classes
This will be a five multiclass build.
1: eight levels in Sorcerer. Subclass will be Storm.
The metamagic options are Subtle and Transmute.
The two ASI’s are metamagic Adept, and Alert. The two metamagic options I chose are Quickened and Empowered. Proficiencies pick your favorites.
I chose this subclass for its level 6 ability Heart of the Storm. Whenever you start casting a spell of 1st level or higher that deals lightning or thunder damage, stormy magic erupts from you. This eruption causes creatures of your choice that you can see within 10 feet of you to take lightning or thunder damage (choose each time this ability activates) equal to half your sorcerer level. To deal extra free damage to a nearby enemy.
2: Two levels in Fighter. This really needs no explanation for Action Surge. For the fighting style I chose Blind Fighting.
3: Three levels in Rogue. Subclass assassin for Advantage on all my attacks and auto crits.
For proficiency, pick your favorite. For expertise I used one on stealth, pick your favorite for the last one.
4: One level in Warlock. Subclass the Great Old One for flavor. I need Eldritch Blast
Eldritch Blast: A beam of crackling energy streaks toward a creature. Make a ranged spell attack. On a hit, the target takes 1d10 force damage. The spell creates more than one beam when you reach higher levels: two beams at 5th level, three beams at 11th level, and four beams at 17th level.
5: Six levels of Wizard. Subclass is War for Tactical Wit, Power Surge, Spirit Shroud, and Scorching Ray. The ASI was +2 to INT.
Tactical Wit: Starting at 2nd level, your keen ability to assess tactical situations allows you to act quickly in battle. You can give yourself a bonus to your initiative rolls equal to your Intelligence modifier.
Power Surge: Starting at 6th level, you can store magical energy within yourself to later empower your damaging spells. In its stored form, this energy is called a power surge.
You can store a maximum number of power surges equal to your Intelligence modifier.
Once per turn when you deal damage to a creature or object with a wizard spell, you can spend one power surge to deal extra force damage to that target. The extra damage equals half your wizard level.
Spirit Shroud: Until the spell ends, any attack you make deals 1d8 extra damage when you hit a creature within 10 feet of you. This damage is radiant, necrotic, or cold (your choice when you cast the spell). Any creature that takes this damage can’t regain hit points until the start of your next turn. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d8 for every two slot levels above 3rd.
Scorching Ray: You create three rays of fire and hurl them at targets. You can hurl them at one target or several. Make a ranged spell attack for each ray. On a hit, the target takes 2d6 fire damage. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, you create one additional ray for each slot level above 2nd.
These spells “Eldritch Blast, Scorching Ray, and Spirit Shrouds” are the only ones needed for this combo. Pick your favorites for the rest of them.
Combo
With the classes I took you will have one 7th level spell slot available at the highest.
The combo looks like this
Turn/Step One: Get behind cover use the metamagic option Subtle to cast Spirit Shroud at 7th level.
Turn/Step Two: Use your +15 sneak skill to move within two enemies 10ft away from you. To cause a surprise round.
Step Three: Use the metamagic options Subtle and Transmute to cast Scorching Ray at 6th level.
Step Four: Use the ability Action Surge to do the last step except cast Scorching Ray at 5th level instead.
Step Five: Use the metamagic option Quickened Spell and Subtle to cast Eldritch Blast as a bonus action.
Step Six: The thing is dead and their friend has a bunch of damage to it as well.
I will assume every attack lands.
Explanation with Calculations
This build will be making an absurd amount of attacks. All at advantage with a +10 to hit. This will hit a 20AC on average.
Scorching Ray at 6th level= 7atks
Scorching Ray at 5th level= 6atks
Eldritch Blast= 4atks
For a grand total of 17atks
Each of the scorching ray attacks are 2d6 by themselves. There are 13 attacks in total. This brings our damage total to 26d6.
Let’s not forget about our bugbear racial ability for an additional 2d6 per attack. That is another 26d6
Eldritch Blast is 1d10 +2d6 per attack with the bugbear ability. For a total of 4d10+8d6
Lastly, Spirit Shroud at 7th level adds 3d8 to every attack we’ve just made. There are 17 attacks in total.
This gives us a total of 51d8s
So far the total of dice is 60d6+4d10+51d8
We aren't done yet. Lets not forget that this is a surprise round for the rogue assassinate ability so everything is a crit. This means we double the amount of dice being rolled. That will bring our new total to
120d6+8d10+102d8
I will take the average of each dice type and add them up together.
120d6=360
8d10=40
102d8= 408
360+40+408= 808 average damage.
This does not include the 2 remaining sorcery points for Empowered spell, or the power surge ability. These will provide additional damage yes but this is the bulk of the damage. The sorcerer level 6 ability will do 13x4=52 damage to the enemies friend for tranmusting scorching ray into lightning or thunder.
This is also a surprise round so the enemy won't get a turn so you still have the first turn of combat to add more damage to this. I would assume with a +12 to your initiative you will be going first if not pretty close to it.
Initiative Score= DEX mod +3 plus Alert feat +5 plus Tactical Wit +4.
you guys haven't truly done anything towards the rat king!?
he was such an amazing character that was brought to life, then we heard that he 'mutated' and had become a serious problem. to my memory, he has been forgotten....
surely after all this time. the rat king should've been a treat dealt with!
You may be misremembering. Season one ended with a pretty dramatic and conclusive moment for him.
He ran off to Orcus' realm of Hell... I'm pretty sure we'll see him again in the main campaign (by wich i mean pls bring him back in terrible glory, yes yes yes)
