THE STEALTHIEST CHARACTER DIDNT CHOOSE STEALTH

[@AmaryInkawult]

Kivy not all rogues are equal.

[@vogelfaenger6830]

In my first game we had a cleric who refused to heal the group or kill undead instead he watched the party die I asked him beforehand to play the fighter it was my first TPK

[@masterag4068]

I guess that rogue went ROUGE No? I’ll leave

[@giraffedragon6110]

Truth is often stranger than fiction

"You are more likely to find a brain with legs, than a competent party" Funny thing is, he's not wrong.

@LoganJ Shaw Seeing as D&D gives players a chance to unwind from the stress of everyday life, that wouldn't surprise me either.

There is a brain with legs in the Monster manuel. It's called the intilect devoerer.

This happened while I was DMing The rogue went solo to scout the castle and evidently stumbled upon the boss room... He couldn't run, he couldn't fight, so he jumped out of the window.

"But also Joshua you're a fookin elf" I died 😂

[@Zakiel97]

my rogue died bc I thought parcouring behind an ogre and slicing him up would be a smart turn, since he was occupied with our tank. Well, as it turns out dealing a bunch of damage to an angry ogre makes him even more angry, he just turned around and one-hit me with his hook. moral of story, rogues probably shouldn't engage flamboyantly unless what they're engaging with is meek enough to either die from their attack or to not backlash for 50 points of critical damage .

[@eternalgamer9770]

this sort of thing is exactly why i take the mobility feat with rouge. you can get in attack and get away unmolested, wether or not the attack hits. 10ft of extra movement and ignoring difficult terrain when dashing is nice too.

When you mentioned going into a goblin hideout i imidietly thought, where is the GS 0:22 there he is!

[@spamuel98]

We actually had a similar situation in a 5e game I played with some of my friends, but the DM was dumb enough to give us a necklace that beheaded anyone who put it on earlier in the campaign. Nobody else was interested in it, so I kept it. Later, we had to fight our way through a bunch of goblin camps that were built on stone pillars in the middle of a giant cavern, and the leader was a huge hobgoblin on a throne. I ended up sneaking around behind him, with the help of my ENTIRE party (who knew exactly what I was up to) and slipped the necklace on said hobgoblin. It then tightened around his throat until it popped his head off, and the DM refused to, well, DM for the next three months.

[@aliyahbelletti8313]

Okay, I’ve been wanting to share this with someone from the moment it happened, my team was pretty late game, our Ranger had a magical artifact that can summon a griffin to do his bidding, but our team mainly used it as a taxi service, it quickly got us from one place to another and it rested while we adventured, So, we just made it to an island, my character, a really bad rouge, just hopped off the griffin, (I say she’s really bad because she always rolled 5 or lower on her stealth check, but it fit with her character) She and the fighter was met with two skeletons one with a cross-bow the other with a giant battle axe, the ranger didn’t withdraw the Griffin so it was kinda sitting there on the beach, Our gnome cleric was healing the ranger of a bullet(arrow?) from the cross-bow that got lodged in his shoulder. Now it was my turn, “I leap up as swing my daggers at the skeleton charging at Edward” (our fighter) I miss and the skeleton hits me with his cross-bow MID-AIR I fly Backwards and land at the ground in front of the griffin. The skeleton with the battle-axe leaps up and aims for the griffin it misses and hits me! It rolls a nat 20 and cuts me in half, my character is now at -17 health and both of my half’s just flop to either side.

[@pancakeswithktkaty7784]

A Rogue should do anything but rush in blindly. check for traps, enemies, or whatnot. If there are enemies then coordinate with the party, just because you're a rogue doesn't mean you'd be a loner! Let them attack the enemy directly and go around for a sneak attack on the enemy spellcasters or other equally dangerous threats. A rogues key function is their stealth and how they can use that to their advantage in so many scenarios not only for themselves but to help the whole party!

1:12 those suck. My entire party was very low in an adventures campaign, and we had to fight an orc mage, and the brain. One of us died, but was devoured. ( we figured out that it has to do that on another turn, so we were fine and he didn’t die) but after our barbarian was out it was me and the bard left. Our bard I took out the mage with my 4th and final magic missile. But then the brain ko-Ed our bard. But then, I was able to pick that disgusting rain up with mage hand and BURN IT. Moral of the story, don’t try to fight brains with legs.

The one time the rogue- me- didn't go first, the cleric decided to instead; it was to investigate some dead horses with black arrows sticking out of them. I was hiding nearby in the bushes to do some retconning because I could tell something was up, but the cleric was like 'I'm checking this out, yolo.' So they investigate these dead bodies... forget we are 15ft or more away from them, and yells out 'THEY'RE DEAD.' Which gave away the group's location and we were jumped by goblins. While we did survive the encounter, it's still funny to the group to this day.

[@scaryroom0279]

This reminds me of a 3.5e game I was in. There was my character and his sister, two half orcs, I was a Barb the other was a fighter. There was also a cleric, a rogue, and a ranger. Anywho, we were on a similar goblin extermination quest. And we were lead to this old farmhouse. I wasn't there for this session, but inside they encountered some goblins in the house itself, which they dealt with easily, even at first level. But then they found a hobgoblin and it was a tough fight. It took longer to take down than it took for the rest of the goblins. They ended the session by entering a tunnel they had found. Next session we explored the tunnel. My character was in the lead because he was the strongest one by a pretty wide margin, he somehow had a strength of 19 before the rage bonus. So he goes in finds some goblins, kills some goblins. Further down the tunnel is a wide pit. He jumps to try to get over it, fails takes some damage. But he success on his Dex save, and barely catches himself. This opens him up to attacks from the goblins who cut into him and get him to low health. So I use rage, he pulls himself out and kills the two goblins at the top, one hit each. Further down the hallway are two hobgoblins and a three normal goblins. So he rushes forward attacks the hobgoblins, one shots both of them. Kills the other two goblins the same way. But the last one is behind a pillar shooting at him. He rushes forward and swings his axe at the goblin. So, I roll, crit, roll for damage. Deal a total of 46 damage. So the axe chops through both the goblin and the stone pillar. Unfortunately that was the main pillar holding up the house. Which sinks into the earth a few feet. And like I said towards the beginning, this was at level one. The only other encounter that came close to that level was a time when I took a werewolf's head off with the hammer side of an Urgrosh.

Something I want to do against a group at some point: The players get to the last room to face the Big Bad Evil Guy and he's sitting at a small table with two chairs, a full tea set and some cakes. He invites the party to join him for some tea and have a seat. The instant someone moves towards him, a wall slams down behind him and the entrance seals, separating him and the rest of the party. The BBEG once again motions for the person to sit while the now sealed small chamber that the rest of the party is in fills with a magic gas that makes the players loopy upon failing a save. They start coughing, and then laughing and everything seems funny to them. Like their friend's face. How stupid it looks. Wouldn't it be funny to bash their friends face it, that'd be great! Oh look, his other friend has a knife! How hilarious! Meanwhile, the BBEG just wants to have a talk with the lone person, talking about the day, the weather, how far they've come to get where they are, and an offer to join him and his army. After all, the group he is with is about to kill each other. The BBEG is also prepared for a fight, with the ability to conjure darkness in the room, a set of goggles that lets them see in magical darkness, and a knowledge of where different traps are that release fire, electricity, and several mechanical traps, such as blades and spears in the floors and ceilings. So all in all, this whole fight should be a bad time for the PCs.
