Q: Can a Fathomless Warlock's Tentacle of the Deeps help flank?

The Fathomless Warlock has a feature called Tentacle of the Deeps, which allows them summon a 10-foot long spectral tentacle (exact wording below). It can be moved and make attacks,but is spectral and doesn't necessarily have a physical presence. However, it can affect events around it by dealing...

Q: Do the rules for running a business contradict themselves?

My players recently came into possession of an inn in a small village and I'm trying to figure out how to run it. On page 127 of the DMG, it says that an inn costs 5GP maintenance per day, including payment for one skilled and 5 unskilled hirelings. There are two main points of confusion for me. ...

@ThomasMarkov Oh might be this

Thomas Markov

@Medix2 thats not all of them, I dont think.

735 self accepts out of 30059 accepted answers.

Whereas my search found only those that weren't also the highest-scoring answer?

So 78% of self-accepted answers are also the highest-scoring answer, wow

Q: Can a prisoner invite a vampire into his cell?

In my adventurer a vampire wants to free a prisoner from a prison. And maybe kill the guard of the city watch, whose office is right above the prison in the same building. Can the prisoner invite the vampire into the prison, if there is a window in his cell? Forbiddance: The vampire can't enter ...

Two days and only 3 close votes? Maybe this doesn't need to be closed but it seems to be attracting lots of very subjective unsupported answers

NautArch

I'll try and get my answer up there today.

Medix2

12:55 PM

@AncientSwordRage Of note, those close votes wouldn't come in until after the subjective, unsupported answers came in, which would take time

AncientSwordRage

@BESW nice

Medix2

It was also tried to be closed earlier, and was voted to be left open from review

AncientSwordRage

@Medix2 yeah, I've been thinking about whether SE needs a mechanism to redact answers on questions closed for certain reasons

@Medix2 I hadn't looked at that

@KorvinStarmast @ThomasMarkov is your view that the OP in the above question is clear enough, or that it doesn't matter and the answer it's getting are good? Because they all seem to be making assumptions that I can't see a basis for in the question.

Thomas Markov

@AncientSwordRage I just VTC'd for opinion based.

KorvinStarmast

@TheDragonOfFlame sure, and if the answers are good I'll up vote them. :)

Thomas Markov

1:00 PM

I initially wanted to give the question a chance, but it looks like most of the answers are just opinions about what the words mean.

AncientSwordRage

@ThomasMarkov I think it's very answerable if there's details tying it to the OPs game.

If the vampire is controlled by the DM they get to decide what works best for the story, etc

Anyway, I've got to go back to work now

Share and enjoy

Akixkisu

@AncientSwordRage I had my close vote in on day one. We could have probably reduced issues by removing from hnq.

KorvinStarmast

@AncientSwordRage Part of the askers problem is word meanings, given the "not native English Speaker" entry.

Akixkisu

It would have been a way better question if they provided the details to their concrete problem.

KorvinStarmast

@AncientSwordRage Is that a problem with the question or a problem with vampire lore or a problem with the text itself?

@ThomasMarkov I like where your answer to the related question begins. I'd suggest maybe (up to you) taking it a step further: Vampires know the rules, and they are lawful evil, so they don't even try to enter; they instead use their charm abilities to get others to take care of that sort of thing (getting in and out of a prison).

NautArch

1:19 PM

I voted to close instead.

Too many highly upvoted bad answers.

KorvinStarmast

1:30 PM

@NautArch Semantic wrangling questions and answers can get that way .... plus, if the prisoner can invite them into the cell, the vampire only has license to be in that cell. That's what the prisoner occupies, thus he is the cell's occupant, not the larger building's 'occupant' - well, it could be argued that way, right?

NautArch

@KorvinStarmast It can be argued a lot of ways, that's why I needs to be closed. It's also why none of those answers are actually supported in the all should be pretty much downvoted.

The questions don't have to get that way. They only get that way because the community upvotes answers that they like, not necessarily answers that are actually supported. If we didn't, these questions could probably stay open.

NautArch

@KorvinStarmast I don't fully agree it's tilting at windmills, but it is an incredibly uphill battle.

KorvinStarmast

@NautArch I am glad that it is finally closed; I tend to be less quick on doing that for non native speakers, English can be a bit confusing here and there, even for native speakers.

NautArch

@KorvinStarmast It isn't the fault of the questioner, it's the fault of the answerers.

and the Voters.

KorvinStarmast

@NautArch I was making an allusion to the 'we should vote better' crusade that crops up now and again. 😊 you are not the only voice asking for better voting habits

@NautArch That is also true.

NautArch

@KorvinStarmast But it does feel like tilting at windmills most of the time.

@NautArch Luckily, your squire also has ice packs. He's a modern Sancho Panza. And under the ice packs in the Yeti Cooler are six packs of cerveza 😎

Thomas Markov

@KorvinStarmast Look at Mr. Money Bags over here with a Yeti cooler.

KorvinStarmast

@ThomasMarkov I got one for my wife and she won't use it (a small over the shoulder one) so I do use it. Nice products, but yeah, a bit pricey. My son won a small one in a raffle, and he loves it.

Medix2

@ThomasMarkov Not that unpinning hasn't gotten a lot of answers though

KorvinStarmast

@ThomasMarkov As to money bags: when both cars are paid for and both kids are out of college, a dollar here and there will sometimes be available for such luxury items as a Yeti.

Or even a cooler. 😁

Thomas Markov

@KorvinStarmast Literally every single person I know with a yeti cooler won it in a raffle or contest of some sort.

That's not true, I've a friend that runs a deep sea fishing fleet who outfits all his boats with Tundra 350s

But everyone that owns a yeti that isn't for their business won it in a raffle or something similar.

I just took a quiz at yeti for them to recommend me a cooler, and I selected "single person carry" as one of the options, and this is the image it gave for the recommendation I received:

MikeQ

2:59 PM

Both of those people are single, thus it is single person carry. If you're in a relationship, then you can't carry it.

@KorvinStarmast a wholesome mix I guess?

Akixkisu

3:43 PM

rpg.stackexchange.com/q/191672/44723 this seems to be two questions that should have one dedicated question each.

NautArch

@Akixkisu We can probably remove that second question. It's left unanswered for the most part by the current answers.

AncientSwordRage

@Akixkisu I think the title question covers the two examples, but it could be better worded

Akixkisu

Even if the title would cover them I don't see how that would merge them into one question.

NautArch

That second question is either going to be designer intent unless there is an errata.

AncientSwordRage

@NautArch good point

Akixkisu

3:46 PM

How do Hirelings work is one question, why don't these costs add up is another question.

NautArch

@Akixkisu I thought question 1 was: I don't understand the inn system. It doesn't seem to add up. Question 2 was I don't understand how job X pays more than job Y.

Akixkisu

@NautArch the numbers seem to be of much higher importance than the functionality.

Medix2

4:07 PM

This recent Am I The Asshole question is the kind that I have no idea what to do with...

Thomas Markov

@Akixkisu with the top shelf close reason:

I’m voting to close this question because we aren't r/aita please frame your question so we can answer it. — Akixkisu 1 min ago

Medix2

Right but that's not a close reason for me

NautArch

Yeah, it's pretty clear to me what they want help with and I appreciate that they are actually asking.

Medix2

Like, if that was closed, I could see countless of our other subjectively answered questions closed; I think I just lack whatever eye is needed for discerning the topicality requirements of subjective and/or personal questions

NautArch

Feels like we just frustrated someone who was already frustrated.

KorvinStarmast

4:21 PM

@Medix2 The answer to that is often "If you have to ask" ... 😊

Medix2

I would actually say that is very often not the answer. I've read plenty of AITA where the other people are despicable and manipulative

KorvinStarmast

@Medix2 It can go both ways...

Medix2

Well yeah, otherwise the forum simply wouldn't exist

KorvinStarmast

@ThomasMarkov now you know a person who bought one, for his wife (I had a coupon). :)

MikeQ

In this situation, I think they probably made the right move (in-game) to stop enabling a problem player who is actively ruining their game experience, but the better move would be to have an out-of-game discussion ASAP.

And they're asking "AITA" because the group hadn't established clear boundaries and expectations, so naturally they're unsure if their reaction crossed some sort of line.

KorvinStarmast

4:30 PM

@MikeQ This right here; and it's quite possible that this is the first time this player has seen this behavior manifest to this degree of difficulty.

MikeQ

One of my first games had PVP creep in and I often felt bad for not enjoying it and complaining to the GM, because I thought the PVP was normal.

Cooper

@MikeQ I do think it's interesting that the "my guy" players have so little tolerance for other players doing the same thing. Sure, maybe having your barbarian switch between personalities (which, ugh) is what your guy would do, but my guy is sick of it and is gonna let you die.

MikeQ

It seems more like the player is sick of it, not just their character. Whereas a "my guy" situation would be if the players enjoyed the PVP, but they had their character oppose it.

Cooper

Oh, absolutely, but it'd also be perfectly reasonable if it was a purely in-character action, y'know?

V2Blast

True

NautArch

4:47 PM

@MikeQ Shutting down PvP is almost always an early GM statement from me (if they missed session zero.)

AncientSwordRage

@MikeQ I think MGS is more about taking any actions any of the players find unfun because they feel obligated from a character/roleplay perspective

MikeQ

Yes, if it's exclusively for in-character reasons. Doesn't really apply if it's for out-of-character reasons too.

AncientSwordRage

@MikeQ ahh ok

NautArch

Vote to reopen?

G. Moylan

5:02 PM

question still seems vague

I'm not really sure what is meant by "do they have their origin in D&D lore?" like, "these gloves give you the strength of a giant" is about the extent of the definition I can think of, there

AFAIK, non-artifact magic items are assumed to be made by powerful enchanters

whereas artifacts can have provenance

NautArch

We can probably remove the 'lore' bit, it's a history of gaming question. WHen were they introduced, how have they changed over itime.

G. Moylan

but even then, the part of the Q asking about the origin of a given item with a bonus on it seems like a long shot to answer. I feel like we're still asking about designer intent

NautArch

OP isn't able to get the answer they want, so they've narrowed it to just what's the history of the item.

It may not be helpful, but it's a reasonable question.

G. Moylan

"when you were designing X version of the game, when/why did you add items with bonuses?" still seems like designer intent

MikeQ

But it's not at all what the querent originally asked. They had a disagreement with the GM. Maybe they wanted to ask a balance question, but I don't know if asking about the lore history really helps anyone.

NautArch

5:06 PM

There is no Why. It's just when.

@MikeQ They were the ones that edited down to that. I fully agree that it isn't helpful.

G. Moylan

@MikeQ I contend that there isn't really any lore to begin with on items like this

"these give you big strong punchy hands" "cool, what will wizards come up with next"

Cooper

That question reads to me like the player is wondering if the explanation the DM gave is correct or not, given the frankly bizarre reasoning the DM used for denying the item

NautArch

@Cooper Yeah, kinda. I think the real question is "how do I talk to my DM about my frustration."

Cooper

@NautArch I'm not even sure if it's that at this point? It seems like they've accepted the ruling and are just curious about the history of the game now

G. Moylan

@NautArch saw your comment, nice add

NautArch

5:09 PM

@Cooper Im not sure it's that bizarre - but it's also easily fixed: Don't pick a STR-based class and dump STR.

Put in your highest, and then take the item.

Boom, done.

OP confirmed they just want the history.

G. Moylan

but then how will they min-max their MAD lad? :P

NautArch

@G.Moylan Not with one-off shenanigans :P

G. Moylan

title and body name the item differently. what is the actual name of the item again?

NautArch

@G.Moylan Gauntlets of Ogre Power

G. Moylan

fixed

most of the Q body serves as fluff at this point

MikeQ

5:13 PM

Fair enough, but keep in mind that they'll take any lore answers to their GM and say "See, the internet people say I'm right", and then they'll come back when that causes another disagreement

Cooper

@MikeQ They've been really specific in the question and comments that that isn't what they want.

G. Moylan

a lot of those comments can be cleaned up now

Thomas Markov

I want to say that this is okay now, but the change still gives me questions of opinion. While I think that there may be categories we can all agree on, I'm very worried that this will devolve into "this is what I think the categories are", and that's not helpful. This also seems quite different from your original question. Instead of trying to narrow to something that might be more stackable, can you please let us know what you're trying to do with this information? What problem are you trying to solve? — NautArch 35 mins ago

good comment

Medix2

@G.Moylan I would not be surprised, in the least, if a Dragon Magazine or something talked about these sort of things

NautArch

I think fireball is battlefield control.

Thomas Markov

5:28 PM

@NautArch I can support this sentiment with significant experience playtesting fireball for its control utility.

Medix2

I think spell categories just aren't exactly useful; even if you get past the subjectivity of categorization, it's the campaign that tells you what kind of spell you need

MikeQ

Fireball is a scouting spell (not sure what's in the next room? throw in a fireball and see what happens), therefore it should be categorized with other divination magic

Thomas Markov

@MikeQ Ive used it for this as well.

Medix2

I might write a frame-challenge saying that categorization is not remotely as helpful as looking at the oh... I thought of a use

If you have a categorization of spells based on what sort of scenarios they apply to, then you can know what sort of spells you probably want to actually meet a given scenario

MikeQ

Mordenkainen's Sword is a deception spell, because enemies won't see you as a serious threat despite having 7th level spell slots

4

NautArch

5:36 PM

@Medix2 Maybe? But you need to have those spells. The spells you actually have are more important than a theoretical categorization.

Medix2

@NautArch Not if you have time to prepare

If you know beforehand that you're going to perform a heist, it would be helpful to have a list of "heist spells" at the ready to inform your preparation

NautArch

@Medix2 Not if you don't have access to more spells.

@Medix2 But what's a heist spell? The specific heist is going to matter.

Medix2

I suppose the real solution is just to know what every spell does; which is required in order to categorize them in the first place

NautArch

@Medix2 Solution to what?

I still am unclear as to what the problem is.

Thomas Markov

@MikeQ Or they'll mistake you for a cleric using spiritual weapon

Medix2

5:39 PM

@NautArch Knowing what spells should be prepared?

NautArch

I had been preparing an answer of "Hopefully by educated guesses."

But I don't think that's actually helpful.

Thomas Markov

@NautArch The question also claims to know what the categories are, so yeah, not sure what the problem is.

Medix2

"What are the de-facto spell categories that players use to balance spell selection"

NautArch

@Medix2 Well, then that's going to be by making an educated guess of what may be coming that day.

Medix2

@NautArch Yeah, I'm probably gonna write something along those lines

Thomas Markov

5:40 PM

> These spell "categories" are not RAW, but are deployed widely.

NautArch

@Medix2 Do players use de-facto categories for spell selection?

Thomas Markov

Then why are you asking the question?

NautArch

I'd rather we not answer it at all. I don't think the question is at all clear.

It's why mine is sitting in a unsubmitted state.

Medix2

@NautArch Mine certainly do; they discuss their spell selections with things like "Did you get any Charm spells? Any AOE? What about shutdown?"

We've had a lot of conversations on "What spells should my Sorcerer learn?" and categories come up a lot; of course, all under the umbrella of "Your Sorcerer learns whatever spells that character would learn"

Which I might write an answer "The spell-preparer is the one who knows what spells to prepare" just worried that's too anti-Metagaming

NautArch

@Medix2 Hmm, but yes - those are very much personal categorizations.

Because an answer could be "I have an AOE"..."Oh, not that one."

MikeQ

5:44 PM

Fireball is an AOE control spell because it can impose the "dead" debuff condition on many targets

Medix2

@NautArch Yeah I have no data whatsoever on the prevalence of any categorization. Which is why I might do a frame challenge

NautArch

@Medix2 That's what my answer is, but I'm still wary about posting it. I don't think we're going down a helpful tack here.

I'd rather first understand what OP is actually trying to figure out.

You're welcome to post your own, of course, but that's my thought process.

Medix2

I think you make a good point. And I probably don't want to answer their question without actually knowing why they are asking it or what they are looking to get out of it

MikeQ

Animate Dead is a charm spell because it lets you make friends

2

Especially if you've just cast Fireball

KorvinStarmast

@MikeQ golf clap chuckle

@NautArch finally dug up the 3.5 info on the gaunts.

Yuuki

5:52 PM

TIL that in the harry potter movies, harry doesn't cast a single spell for the entirety of the first movie

and in fact, he does not intentionally and successfully use magic on-screen until halfway through the second movie

KorvinStarmast

If anyone has info on the ogre gauntlets from D&D 4e, I'll be happy to fold that into the answer.

Yuuki

huh. he also doesn't cast a single spell in the first book so it's not really an adaptation difference either

KorvinStarmast

6:22 PM

@NautArch I found a secondary source for 4e gaunts, will get more later when not behind a firewall.

@trogdor If you've got any D&D 4e books that you can get your fingers on, would you be able to edit in the details on the ogre gauntlets in this answer? I don't have any of the books.

Cooper

@Medix2 I think the really important thing about this question in this post right here-- optimizing spell choice depends a lot on what everyone else is playing! When I played my paladin in a party with a pure pacifist cleric, he never took any spells for healing or buffing, because I was never going to need to use those spells

It feels like, in an attempt to get the question opened, it's been edited to be increasingly broad and general, rather than giving the specific details of the problem that the person is trying to solve

NautArch

@Cooper I agree, VTC!

@Akixkisu hmmmm?

There was a lengthy edit in queue, it was someone adding 4e material to Korvin’s answer.

Akixkisu

@ThomasMarkov yes - that one. I didn't have the time to look into it, so I skipped it. It looked like one of the more interesting cases.

Or was that an unrelated search?
