Oh the "LLM-raised programmers" as "late wizards of ancient Netheril" analogy on the @rpgbot.bsky.social episode about the new Netheril supplement was spot on.

DnD’s Delicious Pain feat. It’s a very cool flavor, but the feat isn’t good enough. #dnd #feats #characteroptimization #dnd5e #2024dnd

Tier 1 DnD characters can easily defeat Zargon the Returner. Low AC, unimpressive movement, very little range. #dnd #characteroptimization

Pathfinder 1 and 2 are very different mechanically, but PF2 hits all of the things I loved about PF1. #ttrpg #pathfinder #pf2

The DnD 5e rules assume that you’re awarding treasure using the random treasure tables and do a TERRIBLE job explaining that. If you’re running a written adventure, the treasure hoards are (probably) already in there. #dnd #dmadvice #dnd5e #2024dnd

DnD 5e’s difficulty/pacing issues come from the little-known “adventuring day” rules, which most people didn’t know existed. Also, WotC removed them in the 2024 rules 🫠 #dnd #2024dnd #dmadvice #dnd5e

Pathfinder 2e and Starfinder 2e are intercompatible, but there are some small nuances due to differences in genre expectations. #pathfinder #pf2 #starfinder #sf2 #ttrpg

PF2 character creation is crazy and detailed and amazing. Yes, it’s complicated, but I absolutely love it. #ttrpg #pf2 #characteroptimization

What if we put dragons INSIDE of the dungeons and also the dragons? #dnd #dnd5e #2024dnd #dmadvice #HireMeWotcIHaveMoreIdeasLikeThis

DnD’s new Cartographer Artificer starts strong, but falls apart almost immediately. #dnd #eberron #artificer #2024dnd #dnd5e

DnD 5e has almost nothing that supports using improvised weapons, and there’s no way to optimize around it that isn’t better-suited to regular weapons. #dnd #characteroptimization #dnd5e #2024dnd

DnD’s non-humanoid species provide some interesting trades compared to being humanoid, but I don’t think it’s going to affect the game in any huge way. #dnd #dmadvice #characteroptimization

Looks like we're having a site outage, folks. I'm working on it now.

DnD’s Battle Smith Artificer is back and the changes revolve around Steel Defender. The math is better, and now Extra Attack can give it an extra attack, so the per subclass is much more about your pet than it was before. #dnd #eberron #artificer #dnd5e #2024dnd

DnD’s Artillerist Artificer is better than ever! Absolutely massive buffs and generally a better play experience. #dnd #eberron #artificer
