Mystery of Mythwater (OOC)

[Sherwood]

I'll go into the fight and see how well I hold out. If I start to get too badly hurt, I'll go invisible and pull out.

 

[DragonSlayer57]

How do I roll for the fight?

 

[DragonSlayer57]

Never done this before

 

[Sherwood]

Are you asking how to make a roll on this site, or for the system of DnD?

 

[DragonSlayer57]

For the dnd system

 

[DragonSlayer57]

What do I roll during a fight

 

[DragonSlayer57]

Like for wisdom? Or strength?

 

[Sherwood]

Ok, to hit is a d20 plus any bonuses you have from your Dex.

 

[Sherwood]

If you are casting a spell and need a to hit for that, it will be your spellcasting modifier instead, based off of either your Int or Wis.

 

[DragonSlayer57]

Okay

 

[Kidzait]

Sherwood sounds good. I am going to go ahead with the monsters and let you react.

DragonSlayer57 Go ahead and describe what your character does and we can translate from there. If you need a hand, send me a message and we will figure it out

 

[Kidzait]

DragonSlayer57 So that looks like an attempt to grapple with the throat grab and an attack with the knee.
Could you give me a strength check for the grapple?
You need to roll higher than a 12

Ok, any modifiers?

 

[Kidzait]

Strength.

 

[Kidzait]

Nice Move Sherwood.

I was wondering how that ability worked.

 

[Sherwood]

Thanks. It is a defensive reaction, so I should still get my attack action. I’ll post that now.

I rolled a 13

 

[Kidzait]

Ok. That says its for a hit but that's ok.
With the creature grappled, your next attack is at advantage. Go ahead a roll your 2 d20 to hit

 

[Kidzait]

The rest of you can go ahead and take your next turn.

I also wanted to check in with you all. I know combat is kinda frowned upon in text rp so I wanted to make sure I'm not losing anyone's interest.

I can't say I ever heard of such a thing.

 

[Vox Angelis]

Well then, since no one took advantage of their advantage on attacks, I'm just going to start dropping heals

I'm honestly fine with it, combat is part of the DnD experience !

 

[Kidzait]

I can't say I ever heard of such a thing.

I've never seen it said but the games I've joined usually have disclaimers that the DM would be running minimal combat during the game. I also think the DND combat feels a little clunky in text form.

Yeah...I won't remind people about buffs from players. I have enough to keep track of so I usually forget.

likewise, I'm not going to nitpick about rules, mechanics and whatnot, I'm busy enough with work as it is

Speaking of buffs, would Balm of the Summer Court (a healing ability from the Druid subclass) be affected by the Couatl armor?

I guess I've seen that but it never came across to me like saying combat is "frowned upon" in text form.
