Dislocated - NPC D&D - Episode 195

[@VivaLaDirtLeagueDnD]

HUGE thanks to Rob's discord community for helping us hunt down all those clips of Ben! Remember: if you ain't rolling ones, you ain't having fun!

[@theq86]

The short you guys posted doesn't do it justice. What are the chances of getting the whole montage posted on KZbin?

[@JackyCola92]

We need more montages of highlight clips like that as videos or shorts, but full videos would be funnier! That would definitely increase the channels quality further!

[@northernepicadvenure]

About 3 years ago I watched all the episodes and put a spread sheet together tracking Ben's roles. He was perfectly on average for an 10.5 on the D20, but the timing of the roles was so on point that nothing useful happened.

He's really doing a great service for the party.

If i remember correctly, bodger got the finger of the fire giant by convining him with greg being able to restore it.... By having greg cutting bodgers finger off

I know Ben hates it, but his bad rolls, reactions, and commitment to it, is why he's my favorite.

[@hmthisisit]

It's definitely added lots and lots of fun moments over the course of this campaign

[@OytheGreat]

Ben is just an overall awesome guy. His streams are great too: he makes beautiful art, interacts with chat all the time, is funny and is just a genuinely nice and tolerant guy (very much unlike Bob). And then there are his movies: he's the best actor of them all IMO. Check out his short movie 'Bygones' if you haven't. Moved me to tears.

[@tomspirktins6084]

Ben, if by any chance you're reading this, I just wanted to let you know, your unlucky streaks bring joy to our hearts! You make us laugh! And, you're the funniest guy at the table. Also, remember, you know Jiu-Jitsu, you can take the punishment those dice bring, and turn it around. You got this!

[@kuwanger12]

In the very first episode, one of the first things that happens is that Ben complains about getting plain white dice while everyone else gets fancy colorful ones. Rob steps in and says who knows, "They might be lucky!" They were not lucky.

[@cdsmarsh]

Please make a short of the Ben rolls compilation. That is possibly the best thing VLDL has ever done (which is an insanely high bar!)

Actually, he's not really using it wrongly.. just wrong as an offensive action.. but it keeps the monsters away from him so he can heal people in a relaxed way, pretty much a threat reduction spell against melee/short ranged offensive mobs.

In Greg’s defence, Alan is not a good D&D player. He sucks donkey balls. He’s never once learned how to play his character and has no idea what he’s doing. If he spent 30 min studying his spells this would not be a problem. He’s a video game player and is to dependent on the video game to do the heavy lifting and isn’t willing to put in the work.

I'm gonna be honest, I NEVER thought we'd ever see the Shadow Blade again. I was certain it was going to be another forgotten ability.

[@dewandrop4064]

Does Greg get Spirit Guardians? It seems like it could be a better fit if Greg's more inclined to go on the offensive. He could also use it in combination with the Guardian of Faith, stand 15 ft away from the foe and pester them with the Spirit Guardians, if they move away / move closer while Guardian of Faith is present Guardian of Faith deals damage. If the enemy stays put they start their turn in the area of the Spirit Guardians and take damage. Spiritual Weapon as a bonus action on a separate turn might also be a good choice if he's got access to it. It's a shame BOB doesn't get an equivalent of Spirits Guardians where it's fiends and doesn't require him to be evil, just imagine, a whole swarm of Whatzits encircling him in combat.
