    Kevdak had these Titan Stone Knuckles
    He wailed on Grog as he chuckled
    But while Kevin laughed
    Grog sliced him in half
    And said, "These are mine now, fuckles!"

      Do me a favor though, fix Kedak and Kevin to Kevdak* and it's perfect 😁👍🏻

      Also flayed the skin with the bear tattoo off him and had it tanned. I assume they changed it to the bear skin over the shoulders for ease of animation, but unfortunately means we probably wont get Grog with the matching tattoo later.

    In D&D, magic power beyond the most minor spells (aka cantrips) is limited. Think of it like a battery. As they level up, they can hold more power, but it is finite. Once they use it all up, they have to wait until they get a full night's rest to top it off again.

      ​@@andersenmacleod Nothing more disappointing than something like inflict wounds with a Nat 20 and out of a maximum 80 damage you roll 8

    Your intensity for this, by ep 10, was a joy to see. Kudos to you guys for being so invested. Yous are Critters for sure.

  • @rhokesh4391

    You should totally look up the Killbox fight from the campaign. It was teetering on a knife's edge, and Laura's/Vex's quick thinking as well as Travis'/Grog's dice luck saved their collective asses.
    And maaaaaan I can't wait to see your reactions to Molly, since your faves right now are Percy and Scanlan XD

    Grog's final blow is the pinnacle of a finishing move. Also I know it's a plot point but his uncle just going blatantly against his whole "the strongest leads" dogma by using the gauntlets to give him a leg up is just irritating

      But tyrants never fight honorably.

    • @ShadowyFox_86
      @ShadowyFox_86 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      He's very much a survival of the fittest type of tyrant. He doesn't break any rules of Herd combat, but he also doesn't freely level the playing field. I gotta give him credit for playing smart, even if he us evil.

  • @Phi1618033
    @Phi1618033 ปีที่แล้ว +18

    In the original campaign, Grog asks Kevdak if he now squats to piss. Which is a serious burn, but they probably changed it because it could come across a little sexist.

    Fucking... 17:20 - 17:30 is so relatable. I am way too damn old for it to be current, but it brought me back. Thanks for the candid talk, guys. Too funny.

    The threat continues to ramp up , but as the campaign continues, they have longer stretches of more slowed down questing, character growth and development, etc while threats slowly simmer and begin to boil over. They spend time fighting personal backstory BBEGs,, working through things like Vax's sealed doom, Scanlans daughter situation, etc

    In the campaign Scanlan is a bard so his skills might be harder to translate into the actual show. He doesn't necessarily have a strong damage output but he was really clutch being the main arcane user on the team and provides the team a lot of utility. Pike mostly focuses around supporting her team as a cleric but she does really well against demons and undead, like in the briarwood arc. Keylith is a druid with natural magic so shes really only limited by what she can prepare to use in combat and how she applies herself. While they all use different types of magic they have spells leveled 1 to their current character level and can only use a certain amount of each per level. Like when Keylith teleports through trees that's like a 7th level spell slot used.

    Sometimes when they can't do stuff, it's because they've run out of spell slots OR the rolled low and it didn't hit.

  • @tomesofawesome8041
    @tomesofawesome8041 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Scanlan discovering he has a daughter, is the catalyst, that leads Scanlan into becoming a truer, more heroic character.

    We're still waiting for the soundtrack/Score for this season. Both Regal and Acree went full 150% force on this.

  • @patrickmcisaac3142
    @patrickmcisaac3142 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    It's important to remember that hits and spells also depend on a roll of the dice. If you have the best plan and roll a 1 then it will still fail. It's worth it to check out a few of the side by sides of the campaign just to see when silly shit like that happens.
    Sometimes, failing can be just as good story telling as succeeding because then you have to adjust to the plan

  • @GameMasterToolbox
    @GameMasterToolbox ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Yeah, about their powers. Their spells get weaker the more they use them throughout the day until some rest (Best way I can explain spell slots to non DnD players.)

    @ComicBooksCocktailsTV ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Also in D&D if you use all your spell slots you can't use them again until a long rest. You can cast something at a higher level, so if you want to cast thunderwave but you used all your second levels for that day you can cast it at a higher level but you lose that slot sometimes you have to weaken them with melee and save spells for when they count.

  • @geak78

    1:15 Grog died in the animation too it was just a blink and you'll miss it so they don't downplay death too much. Craven Edge says "I'll take you with me." Then Grog drowns in blood and loss of strength to the point of death. He comes back to see Pike healing him.

    • @uselessmitten7836
      @uselessmitten7836 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think the implied canon is that Pike learned the resurrection spell that Kashaw used on Vex. "As long as the body is still warm" is the metaphysical equivalent of a back from the brink/flatliners type resurrection.

    • @ShadowyFox_86
      @ShadowyFox_86 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      ​@@uselessmitten7836 So far we don't have anything canon in the animation to show Pike knows that yet, implied or explicit.

    The difference between you guys and Scanlan on the romantic front is that you guys are in the same damned place. If some girl absolutely NEEDS to get in touch with you (such as if you end up with an unexpected kid), it's doable. You'll have the CHANCE to take responsibility. It might take a private investigator, but it's doable. Scanlan, though, being a wandering minstrel in a world without telecommunications, social media, or photography can more or less disappear into the aether moving from town to town.
