How are everyone’s stories coming along? Have you finished the game? If so how many times?

What tips, remarks or other things of note do you have that you want to discuss here?

As always try to keep things as spoiler free as possible.

Also should I do these posts more regularly (shows up on people’s feeds more and so has more traction) or like this is fine. Definitely don’t want to spam people.

Lucky rolls to you all!

    A DC 30 check in the DMG is considered Nearly Impossible. If it seems unfair it’s because you aren’t supposed to be able to make the check unless the character is literally built for it.

    All Charm does is grant Advantage (roll twice and take the best). This will make you more likely to roll a Nat 20, but won’t help you hit 30 otherwise.

    That said if you do build for it you can get a +17 to +30 with the right buffs(+6 Cha Mod+4 Proficiency+4 Expertise+1d4 Guidance+1d4 Bless+1d8 Bardic Inspiration).

      If that’s really what it’s supposed to do then the mechanic wasn’t working as I didn’t get advantage when the character was charmed.

        Charmed Condition

        If your character cast it and they failed their save you should be getting advantage. If you didn’t it might be worth making a bug report.
