We did not see much of myth carver cause Scanlan wasn't a swordsman, he used his bardic magic more than anything. Also the titan stone knuckles was made from the heart pf the primordial that carried vecna's city in the attack on vasselhiem
For my game, I gave one of the players Myth-carver. Thing is, is that the bard player wasn't in the same college that Scanlan was in, so I had to make adjustments. The awakened state would allow the bard to use their inspiration on another creature, and be affected by it too without stacking. They could use this effect a # of times as their proficiency. I gave the exalted state a once per long rest group inspiration. My players seemed to really like it.
the soundtrack of this video reminds me of a great tune of a similar type. just much more soul-wrenching. Anyone got a clue what melody, and where I might have heard it?

Spire of Conflux seems like a staff that my first Munchkin character would love... Not much of a DnD 5e guy, but I have a Pathfinder character that... I actually like a lot. Was a Half-Orc born from the relationship between an Orc Shaman Warlord of Sezelrian and a Human Cleric of Saranrae. After leaving the orc tribe, she gave birth to her son and decided to raise him despite protest from the other church members, as she believed that the child should be free from the sins of their parents. He grew up in contact with both parents and has a strong affinity towards Fire based magic due to the ties his parents have with their respective fire deities. Mechanically, he is a Orc/Solar crossblood Sorcerer, and his signature spell was Fireball. Orc and Solar stacked and gave him +2 Damage per dice of damage to his Fire Spells (+1 to any non-Fire Spell via Orc Bloodline since it doesn't specify). Blood Havoc sacrifices his Level 7 bonus feat for another +1 Damage per dice. Half-Orc FCB also gives +1/2 damage per level to Fire spells. Fire Trick: Fireball allows you to modify fireball in specific ways, Clusterbomb spreading the damage out to separate 10ft radius 2d6 Fireballs per 2 Caster Levels, Condensed decreasing the size by a 5ft radius to gain +1d6 damage, Metamagic Widen doubles the range increments of the spell - meaning at level 7 he was able to shoot five (He was caster level 10 when casting Fireball) 5ft radius 5d6+19 Fire Damage balls. Later on, I forgot how, he was able to convert half the damage to either Radiant or Necrotic
Correction: As stated in Critical Role, The Raven Queen is not the goddess of death, but rather the transition of life to death. Death is someone else's job.
Loved the video, i have a question though: in campaign 1, did we see when the weapons became awakened or exalted? I remember a few (like Vax when he got the wings), but some of the other characters (I'm thinking Pike in particular, with coming back to life after going unconscious) didn't get an "awakened" or "exalted" moment, but still got the benefits of of those states Anyway, I'm asking because I don't remember
I remember Matt saying that the weapons stayed Exalted for a while then reverted back to previous states when not in use so I think they got some of the Vestiges in various states of "Awakened" or "Exalted" depending on how recently historically they had been used to their full potential. Something like that. So some of them were already awakened and some of them were already Exalted and some of them you had to start from scratch because they had been untouched for so long they had reverted back to a dormant state. (Honestly I think Pike in particular was a good reason for that because of Ashley not being there as much so she wouldn't have had as much time to get a "Moment" with the armor as say Vax did to unlock the wings or Scanlan with the sword and I think Vex's Bow but some of the others were also found Exalted as well, like I'm pretty sure the Spire of conflux was, I don't remember, It's been a minute.)
@@mayaenglish5424 Thanks, I wasn't sure. Also 100% with you on Pike's situation, poor Ashey wasn't there nearly enough times to get an "exalted" moment like Vax
@@carlotaperes1031 Your welcome 😄, I think Grog got an Exalted moment too with the Cool monk that followed Kord in the trial forge in Vasselheim, I just remembered. I can't remember his real name because Travis kept calling him Master Splinter lol. There was something after the fight with lightning being called down. I have to rewatch it, I just remember it was cool. Yeah, my vague memory is that The Twins, Scanlan and Grog Exalted their weapons, I think Vax might be the only on who had to do the whole process, just because he had it the longest so it would be easier logistically (and thematically the duskwalkers ward was locked away since the Calamity so it makes sense it would have gone dormant, Matt really plans this stuff out lol). But the others could totally have had "awakened" moments I'm forgetting that came before the "Exalted" final form moments. Whereas I'm pretty sure Pike, Percy and Keyleth's vestiges came pre-Exalted. Which Honestly makes sense for Percy's in particular as it had just recently been in use and active in the world for a while. I'm not 100% on that but that's my vague memory. I'm sure there's an extensive and very nerdy wiki we could check to see if this is at all accurate lol.
@@carlotaperes1031 Yup, him! Thanks, I was tired when I typed the last one and just couldn't think of it. And was feeling too lazy to track it down lol.

Did you not include The Circlet of Barbed Vision on purpose because it was used in ExU quite a bit
We did not see much of myth carver cause Scanlan wasn't a swordsman, he used his bardic magic more than anything.
Also the titan stone knuckles was made from the heart pf the primordial that carried vecna's city in the attack on vasselhiem
Can't wait to see all the vestiges go awakened and exalted in legend of vox machina
I think Vax used the armour in exalted in 2 to last episode of season 2

I'm surprised the crown of the spider queen didn't make it since it showed in og exu
That one was made after both books came out so that info isn't public yet (as far as I am aware)
@@danfitzgerald2195 the circlet/crown is in the tal'dorei book so it's public. The book was out before calamity
Aimee Carrero/Opal's relationship with her new bestie the Spider Queen is giving me absolute life.
Og? You mean campaign 1 of exu? Og means original gangsta. It doesn't fit in this instance.
@@incitingariot9925 OG has furthered become coloquiallized down to referring to ORIGINAL. So yes, it does apply.
The plate of the dawn martyr may just be known as something else by the time Pike's heir receives it. :)
I love that Star Razor is SO obviously based off the sword of Isildur, Anduril.
The last one is literally Minato’s Kuni with the flying thunder god seal.
Ive only watched campaign 2 + 3, holy shit Vox machina were powerful
