@ThomasMarkov Maybe I am misunderstanding the guidance there, but I understood that as long as the answer is an honest attempt to answer the question, however inept or wrong, it is a valid answer, and downvotes should be used if one wants to express that it is wrong. So I have a hard time picking delete.
I think in this answer the answerer is trying to explain that each item has different limitations, and so the basic premise of the question that one item is better than the other is wrong. I of course agree that it is not a good answer.

@NobodytheHobgoblin “Not an Answer” and “Very Low Quality” are different flags.
When should I vote to delete an answer?

You may vote to delete answers in the following cases:

The answer is extremely low quality: There is little to no scope for improvement
The answer doesn't attempt to answer the question; it may be a comment or a separate question altogether.

What is it larp designers actually design? How do players actually respond to design decisions? Are there any truths that apply to all the different kinds of larp design? Eirik Fatland presents his unpublished yet influential mid-level theory. The post Elements of Larp Design appeared first on Nordic Larp.

@NobodytheHobgoblin and in this particular case, the two items in the answer are wholly irrelevant to the question. The question asked about two specific items of differing rarities. The answer mentions two other items with the same rarity, doesn’t mention rarity at all, and doesn’t talk about how good or not good one is in comparison to the other at all. There is no scope for improvement without completely rewriting it to write a different answer that talks about totally different things.
Like I said, we have two different flags for a reason. If NAA were the only answer flag, then yes, any apparently honest attempt to answer the question can be left.
But we have two different flags feeding the same queue, so we must review those posts for (1) is this an apparently honest attempt to answer the question (cuz it might be an NAA flag), and (2) is the post such low quality that I could not meaningfully improve it without making it a different answer (cuz it might be a VLQ flag).

Q: What does the transmute golem spell mean by "subtype"?

LeonthelucarioThe transmute golem spell states in the description that "Both types of golems must share the same subtypes, if any". What exactly does it mean by subtype? I've been interpreting it that a construct must have the same type of name (eg you could turn a wooden golem into a adamantine golem because ...

@ThomasMarkov Thanks for the explanation. I found it a bit frustrating to approve super-low quality answers and I missed there is this option, that is great to know for future cases, so I can opt to delete with "low quality and cannot be salvaged" then.

Q: Would an Armorer Artificer have to use their action to Doff their Arcane Armor if told to do so via Command?

TheMonkeFistJust a thought experiment I had while I was working on my Armorer. There's a part about their Arcane Armor that specifies they can don or doff their armor as an action. You can doff or don the armor as an action. The armor continues to be Arcane Armor until you don another suit of armor or you d...

@HotRPGQuestions I like a lot of these answers save for the weasel words like "probably" or "most likely". I like it when answers take a clear stance and show the evidence for it.
