    Song of the pixie who multiclassed as bard and barbarian, becoming a bardbarian
  • i mean, thats part of what gives it away. all the current AI generated music has a flat, auto-tuney quality to it. There's also a fairly limited number of voices it ends up using, so its pretty distinctive when you hear one.

  • i like DW, so i'd be interested to see what a 2e brings to the table. Moreover, i would be more interested in it actually getting ongoing support/supplementation/etc.

    A 4y/o kid's concept of work
  • Employee Number 427's job was simple: he sat at his desk in room 427, and he pushed buttons on a keyboard. Orders came to him through a monitor on his desk, telling him what buttons to push, how long to push them, and in what order. This is what Employee 427 did every day of every month and every year, and although others might have considered it soul-rending, Stanley relished every moment that the orders came in, as though he had been made exactly for this job.

    I do not think any of you actually played 3.5 you praise so much
  • in 3e, the tarrasque had regeneration, and couldnt die from negative HP. So the idea of building a town that "farmed" an unconscious tarrasque for its meat/bones/whatever was a popular thought experiment for a setting back in the day. IIRC there was also someone who took the idea and published it as an actual book at some point too (which honestly felt kinda scummy to me, since it was basically a big community project/collaboration)

  • in 3e, summon spells specifically conjured the spirits of creatures that couldnt "die" per se. They would desummon if they lost all their HP and reform later.

  • i mean, there were plenty of other ways, including things you could do at lower level, that was just the common go to because it required a single high level spell, and usually you fought big T at high level.

  • the usual go to back in the day was to drown it, because it wasnt immune to that in any way. Simply gate it to the plane of water. There was a number of other work arounds like that too.

  • i can also confirm that the tarrasque was pretty universally clowned on for being easy in 3.5e. That discussion is basically what drove the whole "town built around the tarrasque" idea on the wizard forums and enworld. That said, it's probably not as bad as the 5e tarrasque by comparison

    Actually would either be a TPU (tensor processing unit) or NPU (neural processing unit). They're purpose built chips for AI/ML stuff.

    [5e] Dice Mechanic with Point Buy RNG?
  • Those graphs are from anydice. I'm not familiar with dice.run, but anydice has been around a long time (15+ years at this point) and is what most people i'm aware of use for comparing dice stats. It can be a little confusing to use, but its pretty good.

    [5e] Dice Mechanic with Point Buy RNG?
  • I mean, realistically, it sounds like you're just asking for the older version of D&D stat rolling - roll 3d6. It results in a lower array, more centered around 12, but still has the chance for both low and high stats at much more rare odds.

    3d6 probability:

    what is this community?
  • I'm also a developer, just been too busy to look at it.

    But here's the issue: https://github.com/Fedihosting-Foundation/plemmy/issues/39

    There was a new field added (visibility) that links to another object (https://join-lemmy.org/api/types/CommunityVisibility.html), but this is only for one of the calls it makes, i don't know if there's other calls that need to be updated as well to get it fully working.

    Edit: from plemmy, the bot uses the following calls:

    LemmyHttp.get_community()

    plemmy.responses.GetCommunityResponse()

    LemmyHttp.create_post()

    plemmy.responses.PostResponse()

    what is this community?
  • yeah, the API library the bot uses to connect to the lemmy API broke when the contract changed in the upgrade to 19.5; I logged an issue on the github for the api, but it hasnt gone anywhere, so i doubt the repo is being actively maintained. I haven't had a chance to really dig into it myself, but if it doesnt go somewhere soon, i might have to see if i can fix it up.

    Today marks one year since the TTRPG network was set up after the whole hubbub over at reddit. While we certainly haven't been the largest instance in town, we're still reasonably active, and overall i think things are going pretty good.

    Not really much to say, just wanted to point out our fedi-versary. Thanks for participating and hope everyone is still enjoying themselves!

    Just a small FYI update, the host that we used just informed us that our website is now certified green hosted by the green web foundation, meaning that our site is completely hosted by clean energy.

    You should see the badge display in our sidebar about it starting today.

    Discussion with crawford concerning the playtest feedback from the most recent playtest

    • Everything scored really well (in the 80s for most things, monk was the highest rated, most features in the 90s, might be considered "most improved class")

    • revised version of the healing spells scored high

    • Tasha's summoning spells will be imported into the PHB

    • 2014 conjuration/summoning spells rework scored really well and will be kept

    • They are deep in internal development for the upcoming PHB

    • May is not the release date as was purported before

    • "We will still be working on the PHB in may"

    • Dwarf art from pax is not the cover for the PHB. That's from the fighter section

    • This was the last unearthed arcana for the upcoming revisions

    • New encounter building rules are going through a lot of rework and playtesting

    • Revised DMG will have a significantly streamlined encounter building system

    Just an FYI, ttrpg.network has updated to 19.2. There's apparently some potential issues with cached logins, and you must delete your cookies/cache, or log out and remove and readd your account to most apps. Let me know if you have any other problems.

    Pathfinder community for you to find the path!

    Hey all, recently it was brought up that pathfinder.social seems to be down, and for some time. So I went ahead and created a local community for all your pathfinder needs.

    For now, this is a catchall for pathfinder, both 1e and 2e, if the need arises, we can always create another community to split, but I don't think it's that important right now.
