Man imagine a mammoth with a howda on it's back get it to teleport past the front line of the enemy or a settlement wall and you could deal major damage
They can't handle that much mass, one rider of large size is still a struggle, feels like getting sucked down a drain pipe. (if you want to get super technical, they have the capacity to teleport with their offspring, as the newborn calves need to grow a little before they can do it themselves, so, anything larger than a young mammoth calf is too big)
@@AJPickett Fair enough maybe a specially bred one that's more powerful unless it's a very light howda with very small riders. [Insert Mongol hordes but pixies]
@@zacharyweaver276 Oh man, I need that pixie howda now, in fact... its in the video, the mammoth with the two lanterns on its tusks, look on it's back and you will see a whole village. Truth is, the Mammoths often are experimented on, so yeah, you can get teleportation mutants who can rip a fully loaded galleon in half... teleportation itself is a devastating weapon. Or a mammoth that can simply teleport its mass plus a bit more... or the equivalent in other material... that is over six tons of mass.. even at a 60 ft limit, that is scary.
@@AJPickett Makes sense to me I can also see some fae riding these boys like an old school safari hunters going after displacer beasts in a jungle or at least maybe their elephant cousins
@Ciaran Eldrett hmmm maybe... right now I am tempted to do a video on one of my favorite magic the gathering monster cards, the Pygmy Razorback!
Please, its called a Telephant.
I cannot put into words the kind of terror I felt when I opened my youtube app and was greeted by a mammoth staring me down with the words *BLINK MAMMOTH* written under it
I've always imagined using a a fight scene ware a massive creature with the ability to teleport simply appeaser above it's target and uses it's own mass to crush it's enemy or disrupt their formation. I haven't even watched the video yet but I'm 90% sure that's what this creature does and I want to use it.
You are 100% correct, enjoy!
This explains why I sometimes see mammoths fall from the sky when playing Skyrim... 😄
I guess I know what my party is going to encounter next time they're characters get drunk
The first thought when i read the title: ,,a mammoth that can teleport on top of me and one shot".
Second thought :,,if the first one missed the target, his mates won't"
I love how the fact that they target the pack leaders of their predators to send a message is a great testament to the elephant's personality, great memory and incredible emotional (among others) intelligence. There has always been similar stories of their long-term calculated revenge, such as the elephant that went and killed the poacher who shot and killed his mother after he grew big enough to do so. Don't know how veracious this story is, but I love it all the same. While they are magnificent beasts indeed, you really don't want to get on their bad side: they just won't forget. Same applies for being on their good side, though! 😁
It's very funny to me that the mammoth's use of Blink is more instinctual and reactive than Blink dogs.
It reminds me of those real life fainting goats that stiffen up when scared.
exactly!
They Walk inside each other, to hide their numbers.
I always find it particularly concerning when something really large can teleport.
Words can't describe the sadness I feel knowing not even the ability to teleport could prevent mammoths from going extinct.
The blink mammoth were close to extinct on the planet Toril, but ca still be found in remote locations there, also, with active planar portals the blink mammoth have restocked much of their numbers... how they figured out and now operate the portals is a topic of much debate, but, they are quiet and contemplative creatures with formidable memory.
You've heard of blink dogs! Get ready for...
Ohhhhh! *BLINK* Mammoths. That makes a lot more sense.
MIGHTY MAGIC MAMMOTH!
RAGING FIRE IN THE EYES OF THE
MIGHTY MAGIC MAMMOTH!
RAISE YOUR FLAGS AND BANNERS HIGH FOR THE
MIGHTY MAGIC MAMMOTH!
BORN TO CONQUER AND TO RULE!
SO MYSTERIOUS, MIGHTY AND COOL!
MAGIC MAMMOTH!
Pink dragons are one thing, the blink mammoth was clearly not supposed to be taken seriously. That said imagine one blinking on top of a poacher. Roll dex save with disadvantage at negative ten.
No monster is designed to be taken seriously :)
@@AJPickett As far as fluff goes, I imagine it goes very badly for those who fail to take a pink dragon seriously.
I just a blink mammoth stalking a hunting party/adventure party, and taking out who seems like the leader just blinking and landing on the face. Just imagine that random party hunts a mammoth for their parts then when they sleep one day one just blinks onto the party.
A minotaur using one as a mount in a maze of canyons would be interesting.
I’m not gonna lie, I did not expect this guy to be more than a silly gimmick, but it’s pretty unique and interesting! There are a lot of possibilities with this creature as a giants mount, druids pet, or as an unstable herd!
Blink mammoth, this sounds terrifyingly awesome!
Blink dogs in 5e are considered to be fey. This should be true of Blink Mammoth as well.
I could see a heard of Blink Mammoths migrating from the Fey Wild to the material plane and back again. Especially because of their portal sense ability.
Yes, I hear it becomes important when talking to Druids and the Wildshape ability... heh heh, oops. So the game updated, the blink mammoths never got around to it, and now druids are terrifying.
I have now replaced a Great Rothé with a Great Blink Mammoth...
Size category increase, cover it in magical biomass plaguechanged goop, slap a spellscarred level 10 cavalier npc on it with a magic lance...
Very neat creature. Forgot about this creature, but it's hard to forget about that issue of Dragon Magazine existing.
You've probably heard this quite a few times before but I would really really really love for you to do a channel on ebboron lore or ebberon monster ecology.
In depth guides on the daelkyr , the quori, dolgrims, Warforge, changlings, shifters, kalashtar, dragon marked, and special monster behavior in ebberon. Or Extremely unique places like darguun and Droam.
In any case I love your channel. I've seen all of your videos over the last 4 years. You've helped expand my knowledge and creativityin dungeon dragons far beyond what I thought was possible. It's truly a joy listening to you.
The words 'Blink Mammoth' alone made me blink. I'm saving this gluestick to snack on in a few hours.
Seems like the blink dogs have revealed the secret weapon against the displacer beasts.
Now you see me, now you... Squish!
Alright blink everything blink dogs blink Mammoths blink gophers blink sharks!
Blink untill blind! 👀 ☁️ 🦣 🐕 🦈 🐹
Let's get scary... Blink Dagger, Blink Crossbow Bolts, Blink Metal Dust, Blink Fireball.
@@AJPickett D&D boxed set... Arrows and other ammo of Penetration do that. All hard cover is treated as soft cover (only visual, not at all physical). The scary missile weapons once already existed in D&D. I home-brewed that D&D boxed set magical enchantment into being a thing in my AD&D campaigns.
Oh, and I had Blink Dolphins... the Blink Dogs of the seas. That was my Aquamen campaign so I won't go into that 3,000 page essay to describe what that was there. You probably got the idea already. The default race for a player character was Amphibious Aquatic Elf. Everybody had to be from the sea.
@@AJPickett Default not meaning the same as "required". Tritons, Mermen, Half-Scrags, Sahaguin (both classic and aquatic-elf-looking), etc... all were on the table.
Just when you thought that fighting against phase spiders, blink dogs, And displacer beasts where a nightmare. In comes the blink Mammoth......
3:25 into this video and my brain flashed the mtg card "Woolly Loxodon"
Dnd brain said "Horizon Walker Ranger with Circle of the Land / Artic .... even split 10/10."
Gamer brain "Sounds awesome, let's share!" And starts to type.
Now your caught it. On with the video.
The value of thier tusks is minimal, compared to them in battle.,
Wait, it's a beast, not a monstrosity? I'd wildshape into this for 90% of combats
Technically they would be Fey, which is what they updated the Blink Dogs to.... but the Mammoth has never been updated, so, yeah man, go for it. Just remember, the DM controls when you teleport... not you.
for some reason I'm imagining a dragon with a blink Mammoth for a pet.
Oh boy, you mentioned this the other day and got my wheels turning - even more now!
You could definitely crate a campaign around herd of Blink Mammoths being endangered species. They could be protected by a circle of Ice Elf Druids who fiercely protect them to the death, almost on the border of fanatic reverence. The players unwittingly encroaching on the grove or tundra where they reside could be met with immediate aggression regardless of intent.
Now I want blink loxxos and blink loxodons. X3
I can't stop laughing.
So glad to see you're still at this bro, I found you 10 years ago and haven't checked in, in at least 3, the best most succinct channel on d&d monsters by far.
Imagine hearing this thing and then suddenly it teleports into the shed your party is thinking of sheltering in. Then you have to figure out what scared it
Which is more frightening, the blink mammoth that just apparated in the shed or whatever acared them inside?
Also blink mammoth is crazy
Good gods, these two words together are terrifying 😅
Sounds like a Skyrim Mammoth glitch.
It's a feature
@@FallenRingbearer It just works.
I remember reading about blink mammoths and always found their blink comical - it also reminds me of a Bionicle Rahi - th Fader Bulls which teleport as a defensive Reflex as well but leave an after image of themselves when do so + the bulls teleport they do so as a Herd but also can teleport by mistake into solid materials
things with that kind of mass should not teleport thats nightmare fuel
Your chances of getting crushed by a Blink Mammoth are slim but never zero lol
Just clicked on the video, and I love the idea of a Blink Mammoth! I had never thought about it before, but you could make a Blink Animal as an archetype and it would be really cool. Blink Bull? Blink Tiger? Blink Honeybadger? Such a cool idea.
Ok this where I draw the line
Teleporting mammoths
*throws notes* I am done forming any form of normal unit structure for mass combat in war for d and d as a backdrop just makes no sense
My GM took one look at the thumbnail and decided that he had to include these guys in his campaign. :)
I mean, clearly.
I crave the ethereal filtcher the four armed monopod and it cosine the temporal filtcher.
Message received, ok?
@@AJPickett yep
Lol either you predicted that we'd want this and had it ready, or were just really fired up about the topic
third possibility... I work this fast.
@@AJPickett touche
I'm noticing a trend in the videos all being from the same source wondering if we'll get the killer spruce next.
just a natural progression, and no, I have other stuff to cover next.
Oh what a terrible idea, a blink mammoth with a breath attack.
I was always quite fond of mammoths and magic mammoths including blink mammoths is a great addition to the wildlife of forgotten places.
Nice work on the video- Blink Mammoth sounds like a perfect denizen of X'endrik. I hope you have a great holiday season & cheers everyone
Can you cover the plane of Hades?
I'd be surprised if these things didn't somehow make an appearance in Planegea. Seems like the perfect kind of encounter for a bunch of pre-historic adventurers.
Love the planar traveler vibe!
Now I feel the need to roll a say a 20 dice any time a party finds a portal.
Roll high and nothing happens.
Roll a 3 and the party run into mammoths as they emerge on the other side of the portal.
Roll a 2 and the Mammoths emerge in a slow march.
Roll a 1 and the Mammoths come charging out of the portal. Also, Que a saving roll to see if the party dodges, takes minor damage or gets trampled.
Outstanding sir. A comment for the numbers brother
Thank you for the great video. Look forward to the next.
I'm old enough to have bought the April Fool's issues of Dragon when they came out. I disliked them at the time, thinking they were a waste of time, but as I've gotten older, the more fond I've become of them.
When I bought this issue, I thought this was one of the most funny things I have seen.
I am right there with you
Thanks AJ.
Yes!
We just need a blink sloth and an blink saber tooth
Blink Snake
Makes me think of Vulgaris Magistralis
I still couldn't toss one 😂
Speaking of old paciderms our DM once had the party fight the ancient psychic tandem war elephant. I wasnt there though i was getting plastered at an anime convention. But a stampede of these mammoths sound scary and i know our party would have either made it worse ie somehow set them on fire and they be comin at us or somehow traumatise the poor mammoths
its remarkably hard to set a mammoth on fire.
@@AJPickett 11 levels ago yes, but the warlock is Asmodeus' son whose patron is Garyx and has some hellfire dice and a spell called cataclysm. As back up we also have a thermo nuclear rpg. We kinda play hard and fast with some of these rules
But you could crossbreed with holyphant, as celestial. A holy minature blinkmooth! Or gigantic blingfant!
A Blingyphant
excellent!
How about the flying pink blink mammoth. It can only be seen by drunk people.
this would be hilarous
I have to add these to my Spelljammer campaign.
I imagine that displacer beasts would be highly aggressive towards the calves; or just leave until the disturbance goes away.
indeed.
These were neat, as I hadn't heard of them before; I guess I thought blinking was a canine-only trick? Fun a mighty, bizarre monsters, and tbe end results of twisted, arcane experiments can be, sometimes u really like seeing just some "regular" creatures you might encounter, as one pokes through the wilderness. Very nice!
Mostly unrelated; would you ever consider doing a similar short video on Spriggan Gnomes? 2e isn't necessarily my jam, but it is when I first got into D&D, because I found the AD&D Monster Manual in an On Cue store, back in the 90s, and I really liked the art.😊 Back in 2e, I think every race had their "evil Underdark counterpart", but I feel like I haven't seen the evil, twisted Spriggan Gnomes since then, and if they did sneak into 3e, they were probably just monsters, without their Gnome heritage tacked on. I often complain about the Duergar being psionic, bit then really only changing size, and turning invisible, but I sort of liked how the evil, backstabby Spriggan changed size, dug through the earth, and worshiped Urdlen, another Gnome thing I feel got left behind in 2e. I don't think it would take a long video; they haven't really added to themselves in 20 years, and might not even be considered Gnomes, anymore, but I had to try. Spriggan Gnomes and Urdunnir Dwarves are two videos I still hope to someday see on your channel! Please have a great one!
I love spriggans
Do an air bison aj
Dagnabbit I’ll write the script myself!
Please.
I'm confused why larger creatures would have a better shot to make the dex save. Wouldn't it make more sense reversed? Like if I drop something heavy above a large person wouldn't the higher surface area increase chances they are hit? Vs a small person having to move less surface area from under a falling object. Love the video either way, just want to know the thought process there for my own future tinkering.
Aha! I knew someone was going to ask that. Smaller creatures have got a longer distance to travel at their size than larger creatures, so when a huge object appears over your head, its just a matter of reaction time, nerve conductivity speed and how fast one can move. Large creatures just need to step to one side, small creatures need to run.
@@AJPickett Thank you for this and all you do, sir. I had something along those lines in the works, but couldn't pin it down 'till I read this. Makes perfect sense now.
Yes but what if you throw something at their side?
Might not keep the teleportation but this is certainly encouraging an odd way to get inspiration.
I'm now picturing some blink mammoths hunting a party of adventurers to take out their apparent leader after they hunted one of the herd's calfs. Adventurers hear of a great, hairy beast from local farmers who don't know what the animals are, and they end up bringing themselves right to the mammoths.
No way in the underdark is this just some semi intelligent animals
int 12 and wis is 11.
this should be able to talk to you on some level and learn
They have their own language and could speak common, if humanoid speech didn't sound like insect noises to them... they communicate in low frequency infra-sound, they can barely hear us, we can't hear them.
I didn't know Wererabbit in Dungeons and Dragons?
I just had to watch... I had no clue whatsoever what a blink mammoth is, and I just have to know.
So would you consider blinking a template that could be added to any creature? Love your videos AJ, I always look forward to them, thanks again😊
Yeah, it's not rocket science 😎
@@AJPickett true, but if it WAS I have someone in the family who is in aerospace engineering 🤣
I mean if there's a spell....a wizard somewhere did some fuckery.
My dream came true.
Good video AJ
Thanks Chris
NICE
Oh oh dear God no
This is absolutely horrifying
What's next a blink T-Rex 🦖🦖🦖 a blank whale 🐋🐳🐋🐳
Okay not going to lie the last one might actually be truly over the top and horrifying
By the way love the vids
Or worse the dreaded blink crabs. You think the STI is bad just wait till a freaking crustation magically appears in your pants.
Well he did say they have evolved in different places in the multiverse. So undead blink mammoths would not be impossible. There could also be blink dragons but I can't help but think they would be like fairy dragons. I could also see someone from the feywilds turning out to be a were blink dog or even a were blink mammoth. How about if an evil player character is bitten by a were blink dog and at the worst possible moments is forced to do good deeds against his will?
@@mal35m Or their evil is so pervasive that it infects the dog like a reverse zombie bight and creates a new strand of teleporting lycanthropy.
@@ianyoder2537 That is a good point. Also the dreaded blink crabs, YIKES!!!! I can't even imagine the panic they would cause.
I think I just had a thought along those lines. How about a giant swarm of blink mosquitos? They would be basically impossible to swat. How about the PC go to a tavern with a bad roach problem. there is a sign on the wall that offers 1 gold piece for for every roach that gets stomped on. Of course the roaches are blink roaches and the PCs get laughed at as they go nuts trying to stomp them. This would in turn lead to a quest for the Rick Sanchez multidimensional can o raid artifact.
Now cross breed them with hollyphants.
holyphants are souls, so, maybe they were blink mammoths?
Blink Mammoths are a drunkn bards tale.
In my campaigns, something this massive falling more than 10' upon you (as a size L or smaller being) requires a Save vs. Death or die (if they hit)... success means you get the allotted damage and somehow squirm from getting the full impact. My DM'ing was based upon AD&D canon of early 2nd Ed and earlier (pre-WotC, TSR). D^mn... I'm a fossil.
As for them having difficulties with riders, they should not really have those problems... they are far more powerful than a scaled-up horse would be. The irony is that current AD&D rules allow a Mastiff (a big dog breed) to have a Halfling rider... dogs not at all sensibly built for riders, especially those more than 25% of its mass. WotC writers seem to focus more on the cartoony side of fantasy than the immersive.
I would use this beastie as a mess-with-my-players encounter. They are dark comedy fuel.
Hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving.
Train the blink mammoth to Sit on command.
Or would that be more along the line of Teleport ?
Disney cartoons and movies have a long history theme of the hero's horse sitting down on minor flunkies for comic relief.
2.) Problem with your opening sentence about creature size, fall distance impact hit and save vs death or die roll. Lions are size large, and they can leap over 20ft tall fences. Even a mountain lion that weight in as much as an average size human coming off a roof or out of a tree will hit with overwhelming force. Your ruling can lead to abuse of three PC jumping off a ledge or out a window or tree will crush a random orc or hobgoblin to death with a single touch attack roll. I even see Westerns where when cattle were stampeding, and cows were jumping over each other's backs.
Pull up a YT video of a bucking bull at a rodeo, then imagine a bucking elephant. ( deep sigh .. ) Pink elephants on parade.
Story of a blood hound dog with ears so big they drag on the ground and the young hound dog trips over them all the time.
My last gaming shop ran some Whitewolf/World of Darkness: Werewolf games that were just slap stick with the Bone Gnawers PC.
b.) Stone age shamans/ druids dream time walkers as a Planescape campaign that travel the multiverse from D&D, Star Wars, DC and Marvel comic traveling with Norse ice giants with a herd of mammoths.
c.) Little Nemo adventure in slumberland, my first game shop really bent the rules with AD&D then went with 3e. We just wanted to run a game where Darth Vader was traveling with a parade of pink elephants fly through realities on a king size bed. Then have Snoopy fly by on his red doghouse.
Problem of defeating the ten dream lord demons, you can't take dream items back to the realm of waken thought with you. So the adventure amounted to nothing but minor Xp award gain with no treasure. Many players hated it, but few loved the break from all the other games they were playing.
Cool thing my last shop owner's wife that ran most of the games also was into reading the Harry Potter series so she could run some really twisted necromancer magic schools. So flip a coin for pre ESB or after ESB Luke Skywalker & Princess Leia end up at Howorth's school of magic by flying bed.
d.) Cameos of in game campaign McGuffins that up end the current plot of the adventure, ..
i.) Lovecraft Necronomicon human face stretch across the cover.
ii.) Pink Elephant, which travels all realities. Only seen by few of the PCs.
iii.) Snoopy's red doghouse.
iv.) Little Nemo bed of dream travel. Or the nightmare bed frame.
v.) Sesame Street Oscar the Grouch trashcan. Or any trashcan.
e.) It could be said by the time you reach junior high school between 11 and 14 years old doing mass make believe group play stories is something you should put behind you. But me and my brother shared a room and had bunkbeds.. So you have nearly a dozen teenagers hanging out on the bunkbed playing D&D and running a Doctor Who game larp. Yes we did have to add extra support to the bunkbed's sections to keep from falling through. The screws that held the 1in by 1in bed support broke under the weight of eight children sitting on the bed.
@@krispalermo8133 That's the problem with post TSR AD&D, the size categories. Mammoths are the same mass as a Save vs. Death falling stone in a deathtrap, a semi-common trap in dungeons. Mammoths are massive enough to kill a lion by stepping on them, if the two existed in the real world. Massively speaking, it's like comparing you to a ferret and saying you two are about the same size category compared to a rat. Ya' feel me?
Well, from what I see in modern AD&D... it's a bit harder to die as a player character... and AD&D player characters were never really easy to kill.
I wish you a Happy Thanksgiving, too. I'm doing my traditional (MY tradition, so not a "real" one) Turkey Dinner Pizza for my coworkers at work tomorrow.
@@That80sGuy1972 Year or so ago I got Domino's cheese burger pizza and I was at first shock when I bite into it and found the taste of muster and crisp lettuce. Wasn't big on the mayo. Then you have bar-b-q sauce spread on the pizza crust to go with the BarBQ chicken. So you put gravy on your home made pizza with mash potatoes ?
Left over pizza, home made pizza dough or can roll bought. Then throw on leftover taco meat with slice or dice pan fried potatoes and thin slice chuck roast cover in four blend cedar Mexican cheese blend. So turkey dinner sounds cool. At one time left over KFC on frozen pizza was good to eat.
2.) " .. and AD&D player characters were never really easy to kill."
I seen a group of 15th-level AD&D PCs roll and miss hitting a goblin with only 3hp for close to an hour, no one could roll past 3 on d20 and had way too many 1s come up. After that battle the DM had to award more than 7xp for finally hitting the little bugger.
Then as a gag on a 12th-level barbarian 3.5e PC player. I had them wake up to the sound of a rat chewing on their leather shoe inside their home's bedroom. It was a 30min battle where the barbarian went into Rage mode, took 20 bites of dmg and the rat still got away. I was a waste of time but the dozen other players were laughing too much and they all took turns rolling to kill the rat. Afterwards the Rat was Awaken through the druid spell and made a N/PC with rogue levels for evasion class ability that steal and chew up the parties' household goods.
@@krispalermo8133 #2: Absurd level luck (improbability) is anecdotal evidence, not real evidence. You know, statistical analysis, law of averages, probability, etc... remember? I know you do. You're brighter than most people I met online. I assume you are being argumentative for fun, so I'll play. I like you. Resisting the urge to tell you details of how my Thanksgiving Pizza that I make for us every year at work today, but I think I can do it.
You know of the 50% thing, one time getting it as 1:2? Getting it 10 times in a row is 1:1,024, as in a 1 in 1,024 chance. That's akin to not being able to roll over a 10 on a d20 for a mere 10 rolls. As for that party you pointed out, unable to roll over a 3, that's about 1:173,415,299 in just 10 of the rolls. Not saying that the absurd level improbability didn't happen on the d20s, I'm just saying that the DM trolling the party or having some behind-the-scenes (unseen to the players) was more likely.
Reverse that, would you consider the BBE an EASY TO BEAT guy if your party's attack rolls couldn't roll UNDER a 17 if that helped them dust the BBE quickly? I doubt it.
I could play devils' advocate for that DM and give you a gigantic list on how that is possible, but I feel that would fall far within the TMI range.
@@krispalermo8133 GRRR!
I have to tell you about my annual Thanksgiving Pizza!
Every year, I make a Thanksgiving Dinner inspired pizza. It's not a leftover Frankenstein's monster. I make it before the actual holiday, which is today now. Each time I make it, only two things are the same each time. One, the Turkey Sauce. I make turkey gravy into sauce by reducing it to 1/3 its volume... evaporating most of its water. The other thing is that I use thick-cut turkey cold-cuts as a pizza topping, chopped up to be more of a topping than a sandwich stuffer.
This year, I made my Turkey Sauce a parsley-heavy one. Quite often, Thanksgiving Pizza leans to having a soggy crust when baked. So, to bypass that before it MAYBE becomes a glitch, I baked the pizza crust naked halfway before dressing it. I then applied most of the Turkey Sauce, covering the whole thing, then applied the turkey cold cut bits to cover the whole thing. Then I used the rest of the sauce to lightly cover the turkey.
The pizza was rather simple this year, so my only additional one was stuffing. I cheated and purchased stuffing from a local hot food section, stuffing people loved. I manually broke off bits and applied it to the pizza, making it a nice even coat over the whole pie.
I then applied the cheese, a semi-light application of cheese with a heavy center coat (cutting the pizza matters there) and baked it until the bottom was crispy. The crispy thing on the bottom matters.
As simple as it was, this year's Thanksgiving Pizza went over like gangbusters. It beat my ham, turkey, and potato one three years ago and the "full meal" one of two years ago.
Right now, I have a turkey slow-cooking for a dinner that I won't be a part of... nice thing about being a foodie that kitchen idiots are willing to over-pay you for some simple things. I'm getting paid and I am promised tasty left-overs.
i got here early, wow
I imagine the mammoths also big fans of Blink-182 😀... okay I'll see myself out 😎.
Only if they are shaved. Okay... now I'LL see myself out. 😎

Does April Fool's come in November on the bottom of the world?
Not complaining, just wondering why the content choices.
He did a pink dragon video last time as a birthday present to some one and it appeared in the same dnd joke book as this.
@@ianyoder2537 Ah, there's the answer I was looking for. "Birthday present". Gotcha. Must have missed it in the pink dragon video.
мне понравилось ! лайк и комментарий , для алгоритмов ютуба =) 🦣🌀👍
Honestly this is one of the ad&d mechanics I hate.... save for half damage....
So it's literally impossible to completely dodge their attack. Even a creature as fast as a quickling can't avoid this.... Which makes fights just a matter of attrition.
Remove the line "Save for half damage" and replace it with "You dodge, well done". There, fixed.
@AJ Pickett I did say 1 of 😉
I have a whole list but prefer "make save by x amount for no damage" Either way you end up having to rebalance a load of feats etc. to compensate for this change so it's not quite that easy to fix.
Just seems like 5th has been oversimplified for no good reason.
@@StevenLockey I'm pretty sure the over simplification is tied to the fact that they were trying to take some of the complexity out of it to try bringing in new younger players. From what I can tell it more or less worked. Those same players are going to want something more eventually. Maybe the next addition will bring some of the things they did away with back into the game.
@Stanley Hyde Yeah I get that rational but the way they did it makes no sense since bits like this add very little mental burden but they left in loads of bits that are far more complex like spell lists and class feats.
@@StevenLockey I'm not claiming to understand their reasoning for what they did and didn't pull. I started with 4th ed so from my perspective 5th felt like an improvement.
I was never one for book burning, but this book ...
These read like deliberate parody
That's because they are. That book was an April Fools edition.
DND is too useless of a combat system to bother with. Might as well just roll a d10 to see who wins and save all the extra BS. .
Huh?
Everyone has their own opinion.
