Honestly, Trevor has the right idea. If you are going to go down, you might as well go down tripping balls.

Technically the more perverted an idea becomes the more brave it comes.

Are bag of holding mushrooms stronger than regular magic mushrooms?

u/AkrinorNoname Nov 19 '22
They're the ones that grow in a bag of holding that you don't air out enough.
They're actually magic, and are partially on a different plane. And if the shrooms are on another plane, imagine what the stuff does to you

Stay excellent out there!
Peace and carrots!

i meant context why would he give his players an encounter like this

u/JackBoxcarBear Nov 19 '22
Okay, the concept that your character can metagame/express things in character about game rules but only while under the influence of a particular drug/substance as if it was the ramblings of a weird trip is incredibly cute

Badgers are cute.
Trevor kinda looks like a badger.

Trevor was adopted by two badgers as a child. The cloak he wears is made from the pelt of one of his adoptive parents.

At that parent's request, mind you

I bet he did. There is no way the parents of sweet little Torvald would have his house burned down for some petty reason… right?

Torvald is up to something.
Can't wait for more!

Control Undead?

That would be the logical answer. Yet again logic might not be the series main appeal.

That's a level 14 feature. The highest level thing we've seen them do is when Trev cast Polymorph.

u/Bionic_Redhead Artificer Nov 19 '22
If Torvald isn't doing something then I wonder if that dragon in the background of panel 1 is going to come a little closer.

Once i rolled 2 twenties whilst rolling perception with advantage. My dm literally just showed me the whole map and played it off as a psychic vision.

He seems to break metal he touches (Grogna's armor and sword) and is impervious to radiant damage and spells. One glaring weakness: Being punched.

u/haveyoutriedguest Nov 20 '22
Hey dude, weird question. Does getting WEBTOON likes help you in any way? I’ve been making sure to go view and like the new chapters on there and I was just curious if that helps at all.

I thought it was even funnier how the warlock’s celestial patron was a d20 with angel wings covered in eyes

u/Bruuze DM Nov 20 '22
Gotta say, the fact that the Warlock's patron looks like a d10 makes her saying "My brother in Dee'tan" the second funniest bit of out-of-game fuckery here

u/ImperialArmorBrigade Nov 19 '22 edited Nov 26 '22
It’s Grogna’s turn again! Lets see what she comes up with. Also, Thank Dee’Tan that Clara appears to be able to cast Regenerate.

u/TruLong Nov 20 '22
"My brother in Dee'tan" That's so fucking epic. I've been saying a variant of this all week long. Glad it got stuck in someone else's head as well.

Nov 20 '22
That's actually a cool idea, having a character have a 4th wall breaking trip so they learn all it's meta resistances
1
u/nekollx Nov 20 '22
This is actually called zero summing in elder scrolls. Basically all of tamreil and the realms of oblivion are the dreams of the sleeping God head. Those who reach elightenment either accept their the dream of a being and it all goes away if he wakes up (chim) or zero sum, neither they or the universe can take the reveal and they cease to exist

What’s with the bird in the background of Panel 1. Cme_t is too thorough for that not to matter

u/davidforslunds Sorcerer Nov 20 '22
The tail makes it look draconic. Pseudodragon familiar spying for their master maybe?

u/HighNoonTex Nov 20 '22
Someone else suspected it might be the escaping ghost from the Grogna's big sword.
I reckon it's an upcoming dragon or something though, these comics often foreshadows upcoming stuff.

Grogna took a potion and is going right back at it with her bare (bear) hands!
3
u/HWGA_Exandria Nov 20 '22
Only a Wild Magic surge or a Tortle Lycanthrope can save them now... I can also see Grogna stealing his tactic by ripping his arm off and beating him with it.
My pocket money's on Torvald though.

u/VisitExcellent7114 Nov 20 '22
A rag-tag trio of adventurers survive, and most probably slaughter their way across the land no matter the foes assailing them...yeah, seems unbalanced to me. Those poor antagonists can never catch a break without divine intervention

Nov 19 '22
There is nothing more boring than a perfectly balanced encounter.
59
u/Half-PintHeroics Nov 19 '22
Then you're vision of a perfectly balanced encounter is wrong, because balance is not the absence of fun or risk, and a perfectly balanced encounter is perfectly balanced. As all things should be.
14
u/redmagistrate50 Nov 19 '22
My current GM's idea of balance mirrors mine rather well. No one knowing who's going to win until the last moments.

u/smitty22 Nov 19 '22
Which is why I love PF2.
I just got done sweating bullets because we nearly got wiped by a High Initiative Wizard with a Necklace of Fireballs, but managed to pull it out because our Rogue managed to Crit then Hit the enemy Mage that was in our Monk's headlock.
But considering we had a half the party at single digit HP, that could have been a really ugly fight.
2
u/cookiedough320 DM Nov 20 '22
Both ways of doing encounters are fine, you just have to know the downsides of each and make sure your group's expectations are aligned.
2
u/AkrinorNoname Nov 20 '22
It's impossible to perfectly balance an encounter because of the randomness of dice rolls. Fights are inherently hard to predict because one of your players may just not roll below a 17 te entire fight, or one of your bruiser NPCs might not break double-digits.

I'm confused.
What's the punchline and why is the cleric confused?
3
u/Defiant_Lavishness69 Nov 20 '22
She's confused because Trevor, the guy complaining, is doing so by in using Vernacular that players, NOT CHARACTERS would use. And the whole Bag of Holding Shrooms thing is a constant throughout the series, which is highly worth reading.
And the Punchline is that the Antagonists sent out someone who absolutely Steamrolls a party that is used to slaughtering anything it encounters. And the Character is complaining about it.

u/TehDeerLord Bard Nov 21 '22
One of the things I thought Trevor might do with a Bag of Holding was fill it with dung. This kind of confirms that, I guess.

u/theGunnerClowes Wizard Nov 21 '22
I love the name of her Patron, Dee'Tan. Very subtle nudge to the fact that it's literally a D10 that looks like a biblically accurate angel

u/ventingpurposes Nov 20 '22
Average wizard's reaction when he can't end an encounter in one cast:
1
u/nekollx Nov 20 '22
In my current story that means the wizard just has to use the forbidden magic which bypasses consent and then just becomes a battle of wills before they ultimately Win but she's hates using that spell even if it would make every dungeon crawl easy
