It's not really clear though what i'm supposed to respond to. The goblins are hiding but how given that we see them? Do you mean they take cover? Is it just the goblins or the hobgoblins as well? Does it mean my Guiding Bolt on the hobgoblin commander doesn't work?

I was confused by Verbannt posting twice, so I posted a round 2 action. I'm fine with using these rolls and have the DM decide who I hit (or miss)

Sorry for the confusion.  I had pre-rolled my initiative at a 9, so my first "post" was just drawing my bow.

So this is what I am understanding:

I did my move (highest init)

[other players posted their moves before enemies acted]

the [hob]goblins did their moves

Conspirator posted the two turns that had happened and didn't adjudicate other player's actions because circumstances had changed before it was their initiative order

[other players posted again, assuming it was a new round]

So we're still in round 1, and the first set of posts (before the first GM post) may not make sense anymore.

I guess the solution is to just edit one of the posts with , "use this one for my first turn?"

Dunno. virtual dnd is fun but can be clunky. The main confusion might be from us all posting at once rather than in init order, but that would make combat take wayyy too long, so i think the solution is to remember where you are in initiative... but that doesn't really solve the problem of posting something that won't happen by the time you get there? ehhh

Also, Tidelan and I have run the last adventure together, and got used to doing stuff like pre-rolling initiative.

We just kind of carried the action over to here without informing any of you.

Our bad!

Tidelan is correct. My intent was to give it a day or two for people to change their action, then post the rest of the round with whichever actions people decided to keep. In retrospect, I see it was counterproductive. It probably doesn't help that I just assumed everyone realized that strikethough= dead. G1 is still shown on the map because some of you have a high enough PP (Passive Perception) to see it. He is hidden behind the tree. G4 is not shown because no one has a PP high enough to notice it.

Okay, so now, round 2 has started. Tidelan and the goblins have already acted.

Thanks for the reminder. Was about to post again before checking here.

Also, I noticed that proficiency with Survival now gives advantage on con saves instead of previously not needing to make one at all: will keep that in mind for future camping :P

Edit: Also, technically I can smell (not see) the other goblin, since in bear form my PP increases by 3 thanks to keen smell :)

+3?



Should increase your PP by 5, no?

Tidelan's PP is 15, because it's 10 + his WIS (16/+3) is 13 + his proficiency bonus (he is proficiency in perception) = 15 Passive Perception

as a bear, his perception score is +3 but he has advantage, so it becomes 10 + 3 + 5 (for adv.) making 18 PP.

18 % 15 = 3



It does, but my base perception is lower as a bear by 2, so the cumulative increase after all is added is +3 :)

sorry im a math geek ;)

Huh, that's not the way I'd see it.



So in bear wild shape, your WIS would still be +3, your proficiency is still +2, making PP still 15, and then you adopt the Keen Smell trait giving you advantage on Perception relying on smell, making that PP 20

The +3 in a bear stat block simply reflects its +1 WIS modifier and it's +2 proficiency bonus. But you're not a bear, you're a Druid in wild shape.

Oh! Silly me :) You're right!

haha you play my class better than I do, thanks for the reminder <3

Always happy to give the group a better chance of spotting (or smelling) an ambush :)

Actually, the reason you could see the goblin, Tidelan, is that there was nothing between it and you for it to hide behind.

Spark is correct about the bear form's affect on your skill, though.

Let me know if Tidelan is still up.

I was , but I posted my action, sorry for the wait, I slept in today :|

Always appreciate your cleric, folks!

Also, Grave Domain is awesome.

10 hp as a bonus action from 30 ft away is crazy good! What ability is that?

I assume they cast Healing Word but the 1st level Domain feature maximizes all healing for unconscious targets. They can also cast spare the dying with a range of 30 ft, but that doesn't heal hit points just stabilizes.

Then again, might not have been healing word... because: 1d4 + MOD = 10 cannot be true, since i doubt a 2nd level character has a Wisdom of 22.

Might be cast at 2nd level (meaning their wisdom is 14 or 15), but i dont think you get that slot until 3rd level, so i don't actually know what was cast.

Either way, awesome subclass. Although I don't know if it will be Boneclaw's turn in initiative before the hobgoblins kill Tidelan (they are both adjacent to him, he's unconscious)

I appreciate your willingness to explain what might have happened, but could just as well wait for Boneclaw to confirm what actually happened :D

Aw crap, misread. So I guess Tidelan is only stabilized for now.

No worries.

Also, since it came to my turn before yours, I should have rolled a death save. But, even though I'm stabilized, I don't think it 'removes death saves' it just means I don't have to keep making them. If I take damage, I have to make saves again (meaning if i lose 2, then it will have mattered what i rolled)

So I should roll because of this, and i'll post it here.

11:47, Today: Tidelan Wavyrus rolled 11 using 1d20.  death save jeebies.

Nice. Might not matter , but at least the dice are on my side :)

Yes, it does

Ah, thanks!

Spark, make a charisma (intimidation) check, please.
