man, I just adore Trott/Lucius. That simple bit with him buying everyone drinks was so inspired. It's easy to play "dumb spoiled rich kid" but you can tell the difference from last episode to this one, the hint that there's something more about him. Not just kindness but a "joie de vivre".
Sometimes i don't know if it is the player or the character that's so ignorant. Like the price to fix the dwarf's leg. They basically run around to get the funds for days, how much coins he sits on, really??? Later they figure out they could pay the 300, they don't do it. Wonder why. The faster the dwarf is healed, the better (he would repay them or help them faster)

Maybe we’d all be less single
I am from Michigan, but my dad is from Louisiana and he lives there. I'm currently visiting him in Walker and yeah marks accent is so friggin funny, it's like the average American persons British accent impersonation.
I can just imagine sentry looking up to try and catch quill but completely misses and quill slams into the ground then she slowly goes down to heal him just in response not saying anything about it while everyone stands there stunned.
So, the thing I learned from this session is that we have a party with a Sorcerer who was born and raised in floating cities and an Aarakocra Bard, but neither of them packed Feather Fall. Good watching in the latter half, though the group seemed quite deflated and flat in the first half - hope everyone's feeling alright! I'm also kind of surprised that no-one has really suggested the possibility of finding an intact/stable matrix that Sentry might be able to use to buy herself a few more years... the possibility of that alone would surely seem like enough reason to check, for those that count her a friend, no?
even when quill only took half damage he got exactly lethal damage, meaning if he had´t made the saving throw he would just had straight up die permanently (on less resurrection) , scary, d&d's most dangerous thing, falling damage.
I have to say I was a bit disappointed that "Lucius" had not found the necessary time, to see the show in the week he was gone. It was at least the impression I got, from his statements.
Sofus He was on holiday in Italy. Seems fair to me if he chose to spend the time on other things. Besides, even if they’ve parted ways on good terms it doesn’t mean it would be pleasant to watch a three hour video of an ex.
While the cavern is not the choice I would have gone with and it proved quite dangerous, I understand and respect sentry's choice because it's her only current link to guardians and she also needs to look to recharge her core. I'm so interested to see if Mark will have them fight "Feral" guardians or even some Sentry might have known...
Mark: "you'll surely find someone in town to sponsor you to go down the chasm" also Mark, in character: "why don't y'all just go down the chasm, what do you need me for?" I'm still wondering.
Probably should've asked someone else. The Scarecrow is pretty clearly focused on one objective, and this expedition to the chasm is irrelevant to her.
I gotta say this is the perfect thing to listen to while traveling, and im glad i chose these nuggets to help me stay awake and entertain me during these trips.
Genasi live longer than humans but only by a decade or 2 on average (but that is assuming they are half-Human, a half-Elf Genasi would live quite a bit longer i would think), and Guardians can have their Matrix restored to extend their lifespan (Sentry stated she knew Guardians that were hundreds of years old because they had their matrix restored) . . . so really only poor Quill will die of old age anytime soon . . . although as a Bard he could take the Clone spell later on (way later, 18th level i think) and then as long as he had prepared Clone vessels ready he could outlive everyone
@@thefracturedbutwhole5475 Pretty sure a Clone spell doesn't work when you die of old age, unless the spell got extremely changed from the edition I play with (3.5).
@@Jake007123 It's worth checking the 5e version of something before trying to correct someone on it. 5e allows you to make the clone younger than your current age, and even if you died of old age you would return to the clone.
Am I the only person who heard “pumpkin with a scythe behind it” and immediately my brain screamed “COME WITH US AND YOU WILL SEE THIS OUR TOWN OF HALLOWEEN”
This is quite superb in places. Chris's RP as Lucius is excellent, and the others play off him well. I like Mark's frontier town and it's accents. Great fun.
Someone needs to animate the scene, where they go down the rope, into the caverns! I think you could portrait it perfectly! 1:54:44 Nova comes down, black screen, one small light, lantern, skittering in the dark!

I just started this on spotify, and then i remembered there's a vod channel for when im home. So I can throw this up at home, and podcast it in the car to work!
Also anyone else? GEOLOGY IS A SCIENCE! Sorry just had to say that! Overall I ended up enjoying it when I gave it a second chance. The world is fantastic.
Quill could have used his Inspiration for the final climb down to cancel out his disadvantage. (Advantage + Disadvantage = normal roll). Oh, he realized immediately after I said this.
2:16:40 Mark is the audience here (especially the CR audience, god I wish Matt would do this to his players 1000x more. Pro tip, ez way to please viewers is to READ YOUR SHEETS!!!!)
I honestly don't agree with them choosing the Chasm with unknown dangers before doing even 1 of the jobs that seem less dangerous and certain cash to help their companion.
I just want to shake them and get them to go to Naville to find out about the magic spear tip!! The DM has put a neon sign on it and handed them the person who can identify it and probably has the magic supplies that Nova needs, too. He would at least know where to find those things.
*sees only 3+1 players* Aight, Who wants to place down their bets if Mark is gonna RP every Aerois High roller we have, by episode 15? I'm betting $30 on yes.
Im not hating or anything, but it seems like theyre having problems getting the whole crew at the table this season, theres been somebody missing almost every week
bruce mccorvey tbh it doesn't seem like the party is as interested? Maybe because the first season was 2 of their first D&D games they were more interested, but overall the in-game characters aren't as interesting backstory or personality wise either.
Zonofv 1 I didn't say anything about the 5 players so I don't know why that reply was aimed at me. I talked about how interested the players seem, especially shown throughout roleplay. There have been moments where Mark has told them to roleplay and there is silence as it seems they are trying to force conversation. Whereas in the previous campaign they were always role-playing without any need to be told, I think that speaks to their investment and interest as players into their characters.
Edit: read the replies to see this is wrong Idk if mark is aware but I don’t think Quill actually has 1 arm (obvs up to them if they want him to have lost both limbs but does seem pretty harsh) - if you look at a picture of an Aarakocra they clearly have arms separate to their wings - might be worth remembering in future!!!
yeah, its his character! I just felt sorry for him being a bit gibbed as he's such a fair and inventive player, wasn't clear if that was the full intention pre-campaign (now I know). Certainly does make for and interesting and unique character experience which is exciting (and terrifying) to watch. This kind of fair play, great roll play, and excellent DMing is what's kept me watching since ep 1 of lightfall and every mini campaign I can find!
One of my characters actually tried to pull what Lucius did with Maximillian on a blacksmith to get his love interest a suit of plate armor and have his family pay for it, I was way more generous than Mark was and let him roll persuasion... he succeeded.
Mark seems a little unfair with some of his rulings, but the group is also not that sensible with decisions. There were also a bunch of rules mistakes but that's a given.
Birdboy casts a spell requiring somatic components while hanging onto a rope?(guiding bolt). I just realized that the birdboy has 2nd level spell slots as a 2nd level character
they are level 3, guiding bolt is level 1, Quill is multiclass Bard/Cleric so he is a 2nd level . . . i don't know what he took a second level in, so in a way you are all correct
2:11:49 Mark, shouldn't Aila have not been able to use her bonus action for storm aura since it takes a bonus action to enter rage? I could be missing something as I'm not a D&D aficionado, but the last time I played a Barbarian that's what I remember the PHB saying.
Why would you chose the 2-3 day exploration that will be there later and not the job that will give you 250 gold, get your friend who is in pain and sleeping in a barn healed?
Because they let sentry be the tie-breaker. Obviously, she'd rather investigate the link to her past, and look for something that could potentially keep her from dying in the next 2 years.
The DM (Mark? sorry, I'm new) did everything but tell them outright to check with the gnome, who deals in magic and spells before heading to the chasm. I'm surprised Nova in particular wasn't immediately struck by this. Also, why not do one of the jobs (probably the tunnels/beasties), collect the 200, chip in 20 gold each to get the 300, heal Arvel, then invite him along on the other jobs to secure a 6th party member. One armed with a two shot crossbow that could really help with ranged attacks?
I think Lucius considering spending holiday down on the surface is pretty significant character growth considering where he started.
Nova:You can't put a price on knowledge
Lucius: Well you can
That's how Barnes and Noble stays in business
Someone has heard of the American higher educational system.
*looks at his student loan debt*.. erm......
college be like
Lucius is like one of those characters that makes friends with everyone in the weirdest ways and I LOVE it
Episode 5: let’s not waste Trott’s money
Episode 6: Trott wastes his money
man, I just adore Trott/Lucius. That simple bit with him buying everyone drinks was so inspired. It's easy to play "dumb spoiled rich kid" but you can tell the difference from last episode to this one, the hint that there's something more about him. Not just kindness but a "joie de vivre".
So what im getting from this is we should throw children into the wilderness so the are less spoiled...

sanddry thx for these btw
sanddrY You legend
Group talking about selling spear tip to max million
Marks mind: don’t tell them it’s worth 1,500 gold don’t tell them....
I'm from the southern USA and I love Marks stereotypical southern accents. They give me life
As a southerner myself it also gives me much joy
I read all this in Mark's southern accent.
Same 😂
I am from Michigan, but my dad is from Louisiana and he lives there. I'm currently visiting him in Walker and yeah marks accent is so friggin funny, it's like the average American persons British accent impersonation.
I really want Tom to tattoo on his hand “Guiding Bolt gives the next attack against the target advantage.” Because they nearly always forget that.
I love Trott in this, even if I do constantly want to punch his character in the face.
How rude, don't punch him or his daddy will come and find you... Eventually... Probably.
Lucius is great, but he does deserve a big punch to the face.
He just needs to come to reality, and he'll be fine
Not sure why he gets that reaction. Other than being rich, Lucuis has been kind and generous and also helpful in battle 🤷♀️

"I'm a scientist not a geologist"

Sheldon Cooper approves.
i like how they got a fifth player but still only have 4 people playing at a time. lol
Yes there seems to be something happening for somebody every week. Trott and Katie have split up so that may have something to do with it...
They split up? I guess that Shipping and Receiving vid hit her harder than we thought
A fading fire of hope still flickers, foreshadowing the full party assembling once each ten sessions, to perform feats of legends.
I have to say I was a bit disappointed that "Lucius" had not found the necessary time, to see the show in the week he was gone. It was at least the impression I got, from his statements.
Sofus He was on holiday in Italy. Seems fair to me if he chose to spend the time on other things. Besides, even if they’ve parted ways on good terms it doesn’t mean it would be pleasant to watch a three hour video of an ex.

I just want to shake them and get them to go to Naville to find out about the magic spear tip!! The DM has put a neon sign on it and handed them the person who can identify it and probably has the magic supplies that Nova needs, too. He would at least know where to find those things.
52k views? OO, HR is getting more and more popular by the day!
*sees only 3+1 players* Aight, Who wants to place down their bets if Mark is gonna RP every Aerois High roller we have, by episode 15?
I'm betting $30 on yes.
Literally only session 1 has had everyone attending.
Im not hating or anything, but it seems like theyre having problems getting the whole crew at the table this season, theres been somebody missing almost every week
bruce mccorvey tbh it doesn't seem like the party is as interested? Maybe because the first season was 2 of their first D&D games they were more interested, but overall the in-game characters aren't as interesting backstory or personality wise either.
Xolder Nightingale Maybe they just started when a lot of people were going places and on vacation. It is summer after all.
Zonofv 1 I didn't say anything about the 5 players so I don't know why that reply was aimed at me. I talked about how interested the players seem, especially shown throughout roleplay. There have been moments where Mark has told them to roleplay and there is silence as it seems they are trying to force conversation. Whereas in the previous campaign they were always role-playing without any need to be told, I think that speaks to their investment and interest as players into their characters.
Well Trott and Katie have split up and they said in their post about it that players “will take breaks” so that may be it.
what post? where can i find it?
i love it when they pick on tom for being mean
His accent for Rosalina makes him sound like Gru from dispicipal me
Nova you poor innocent soul.😂
HIGH DUMUGE
Edit: read the replies to see this is wrong
Idk if mark is aware but I don’t think Quill actually has 1 arm (obvs up to them if they want him to have lost both limbs but does seem pretty harsh) - if you look at a picture of an Aarakocra they clearly have arms separate to their wings - might be worth remembering in future!!!
He has one arm, the Aarakocra in Aerois have their wings attached to the arms, so to lose a wing means he loses an arm, too.
Tom Hazell thanks for clearing it up for me! 🙂
And just to be clear, it was Tom's choice. Check the character intro videos.
yeah, its his character! I just felt sorry for him being a bit gibbed as he's such a fair and inventive player, wasn't clear if that was the full intention pre-campaign (now I know). Certainly does make for and interesting and unique character experience which is exciting (and terrifying) to watch. This kind of fair play, great roll play, and excellent DMing is what's kept me watching since ep 1 of lightfall and every mini campaign I can find!
Mmm, drumsticks
Levitate and climbing a rock wall is awesome. You should be able to pull yourself along and maneuver the wall like nothing.
Birb go splat
Trott’s face is too perfect 1:10:20
"I'm a scientist, not a geologist!" Geologists everywhere feelsbadman
57:55 Sad birbman
One of my characters actually tried to pull what Lucius did with Maximillian on a blacksmith to get his love interest a suit of plate armor and have his family pay for it, I was way more generous than Mark was and let him roll persuasion... he succeeded.
Lucius sounds like stewie griffin
Mark seems a little unfair with some of his rulings, but the group is also not that sensible with decisions. There were also a bunch of rules mistakes but that's a given.
I mean at the time of this it some of these guys first time/ second time playing a proper session of dungeons and dragons
Also there are no rules the dungeon master doesn't agree to that's both the absolute wonder and the horrible horrible problem of ttrpg
2:15:40 mark doesn't look like he's rolling dice if you know what I mean
I love this series so much
Nova Geologist are scientist too! 😜 ❤
Geologists are scientists, but not all scientists are geologists.
I don't need it
I don't need it
I don't need it
I don't need it
I NEED IT
Fancy lanterns for the win
So qillek is like the leader of sort? I like to think of it that way lmao
Why does Lucius sound like Basil Brush?
Birdboy casts a spell requiring somatic components while hanging onto a rope?(guiding bolt). I just realized that the birdboy has 2nd level spell slots as a 2nd level character
They're level three aren't they?
Guiding bolt is lv 1
they are level 3, guiding bolt is level 1, Quill is multiclass Bard/Cleric so he is a 2nd level . . . i don't know what he took a second level in, so in a way you are all correct
He wasn't on a rope, he was on a ledge.
Tom mentions tusks
Me: Tuskkkkkkkk boiiiiiiiiiiii
Awww quil that kinda made me sad whe sentry said it probably really selfish of me and quil said I get it
2:11:49 Mark, shouldn't Aila have not been able to use her bonus action for storm aura since it takes a bonus action to enter rage? I could be missing something as I'm not a D&D aficionado, but the last time I played a Barbarian that's what I remember the PHB saying.
yup, simple mistake
The effect triggers on entering rage. While you are raging, you can use your bonus action to again trigger the effect. So no mistake there.
finally, 3 hours of being able to do nothing
Why would you chose the 2-3 day exploration that will be there later and not the job that will give you 250 gold, get your friend who is in pain and sleeping in a barn healed?
Because they let sentry be the tie-breaker. Obviously, she'd rather investigate the link to her past, and look for something that could potentially keep her from dying in the next 2 years.
Because DND lol. Nobody does the logical thing.
The DM (Mark? sorry, I'm new) did everything but tell them outright to check with the gnome, who deals in magic and spells before heading to the chasm. I'm surprised Nova in particular wasn't immediately struck by this.
Also, why not do one of the jobs (probably the tunnels/beasties), collect the 200, chip in 20 gold each to get the 300, heal Arvel, then invite him along on the other jobs to secure a 6th party member. One armed with a two shot crossbow that could really help with ranged attacks?
I think the dice are weighted to nat 1s and nat 20s
What rule is he using when Quill falls? For the con save
