See the Turtle of enormous girth! On his shell he holds the Earth

[@Colsylver]

Leviathan is definitely Kyogre

[@spacewarsfight281]

Great stuff as always

[@bobtown500]

Thx guys!!! Great cast!!!

[@joshuastyron3502]

The turtle reminds me of Morla the Ancient One from the Neverending Story. It needs a sneeze attack!!

[@moonringXD]

Man I'm sad on how they changed the Phoenix lore from a peaceful creature to a mindless brut. Oh well what are you going to do. Oh and excellent video guys keep it up! 👍 Ps Also could you guys do a video on Skulks, Ixitxachitls, or spellweaver please? If not it okay.

[@StevenMichaelCunningham]

Consider the source. 🎰

[@strike732]

I’m using this next session, can’t wait to throw them at the players - elemental dungeon crawl !!!!! - thanks you guys for Putting in the hard work lore research

[@DragonGunzDorian]

I have liked and commented! I continue to serve the rockin dungeoncast! Evening milords! I'm a little late today due to being asleep all day, but I'm here now! These elder elementals sound like ghastly things. Few things can stand to that kind of destructive force. It's quite fitting however that elemental creatures would basically be an allegory to natural disasters. I suppose there isn't much else to say on such simplistic creatures is there? Till next week lords of knowledge and laughter! Ah, it took a couple weeks, but I've got my fix. That's some good stuff boys. The part about the giant turtles mating was freaking hilarious, just, just good job Brian. There's a reason your the lord of laughter. Although while that year long mating session is probably them getting to know each other, I like to think they are just absolute s@$ gods with ungodly stamina, lmao. As for the phoenix, kinda wish they hadn't relegated it to being an elder elemental. It was a noble creature and now it's just pure destruction. Also I'd probably homebrew old phoenixs to truly be reborn and to not create a new phoenix on death. It kind of has to be that way, or the rebirth part makes no sense. Anyway that's all for this week dudes, have a good day and stay safe you two. Also I hope the covid relief you guys are doing hit its goal!

Another amazing episode! Well you asked for the opinion of someone in the architecture field, where here I am (about 30 years of experience building healthcare facilities, educational facilities, and commercial building). For ship and structure similarities, I think of barrel roofed buildings, especially near the ocean in the Middle Ages. Many historical documentaries explained how ship builders would also build structures due to the similar material use and construction. Think of a barrel roof as an upside down ship;) For the damage impact, jump a few years ahead and think about the videos showing the impact that atomic bombs shock wave had on structures. Framed structures were leveled whereas masonry structures stood more of a chance. Now to tie these two components together, I’m sure there’s an older edition reference book which has hit points associated with materials. You should be able to calculate how many hit points specific structures have. Keep up the entertaining and educational podcasts! - Darin Grams aka Nirad Smarg

Guys love the channel but the O in Oedipus is silent. Also nothing about deseriat the twighlight phoenix from the explorers guide to wildmount?

[@StevenMichaelCunningham]

Earth, Air, Water, Fire, Spirit...embodiment of this? Life, Death & transcendence hence reincarnation & resurrection in all it's science. I often play as a rogue for this reason. My personal favorite being a Rogue/Monk/Bard combination. (Peasant Monk, Shadow Dancer Rogue/Thief, Jester Bard or even lore intensive simply..) 🎰

[@wraithreaper22]

Here for the Phoenix ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@winterlaine]

These elementals seem pissed because they got ripped from their elemental plane.

[@notsae66]

Personally, if I were to make the 5e Pheonix more deadly, I'd increase its intelligence and make it able to change the composition of its flames. Imagine fighting an invisible or poisonous Phoenix or with any other crazy effects fire can have, Especially one smart enough to use proper tactics.

[@williethenerfherder2193]

I could see a dao using a zaratan to cause chaos so it could go on slaving raids in the material plane.

[@calebrenegar1992]

Boats are meant to move and take waves. A house isn’t. I’d say if tossing a couple torches in can raze a house that attack would definitely collapse it. Houses are banking on no one wanting to attack them lol

[@epiccthulu]

Especially with cases like the Phoenix, both the before 5e and 5e variants can exist canonically together. Just like the fey unicorn and thay unicorn are different from the celestial charger and dusk unicorns.

[@Lendel_Smânio]

About the Zaratan structure damage. Just gave my players in one of my tables Daern's Instant Fortress and get this, the fortress has 100 hit points for each of it's walls, it's ceiling and it's door. Although it is resistant to all kinds of damage (wich means the Zaratan just deals 50 damage to it) it can only be restored with a wish spell that you have to choose where in the fortress is it spent and only restores 50 hit points to that specific part. Wich means that, even though the fortress is not that big, the Zaratan can destroy a magical item in just two of those moves. Ain't that some strong shit?

[@pacoes1974]

Look up concrete boats ... rocks can float. :)

[@Gingomir]

First comment? I think so! Kill it guys, love the Elder Elementals.

[@pricerowland]

It seems like DnD blended the Western phoenix with some elements of the Chinese fenghuang in the lore with them being revered creatures of good.

[@cameronpearce5943]

I have my Phoenix's have a whole lot of radiant and healing spells, but also that their fire negates resistance and makes immunity in to resistance

[@marcussimoes2909]

Hey guys, I love your Chanel, i like too sugest tô make a séries obout the Companions of the Hall, becouse your guys alredy make the Drizzt episode (one of the best)! Tks

[@davidmccullough4678]

I'd say a house sized building is usually about 100 hp or less if not well built.

[@gregorycintron3806]

Check out the book city works off a sister dnd line. Its all about city building and everything entailed in it. Plus one of my fav classes, the acrobat

[@TerrariaGolem]

[@ashenwuss1651]

I must have become eldery. I forgot to check my notifications

[@DragonGunzDorian]

The pain of ashen not being here yet *burns* me.

[@DragonGunzDorian]

Ashen, for being late to making puns, your *grounded*

[@mcswaggerduff8946]

Glad to see y'all back in business, the pun making doesn't stop for cataclysmic events

[@Clockwork-Shadow]

@dungeoncast No avatar reference when you guys were talking about the Phoenix rebirth? I'm dissapointed in you guys. I was waiting for it too.

[@emanuelcamuglia5984]

campaign idea about a wizard summoning all 4 lder elementals, tricking the PCs into killing them and stealing the elemental core of each to create Gamera

[@number1gamer198]

Lion turtle

[@mcswaggerduff8946]

Truly its

[@wraithreaper22]

Oh yeah. I forgot 5e ruined my favorite creature. Good thing I made my own Phoenix Guild with a more powerful, sentient, not stupid angry monster version of a Phoenix.

[@onisinn1]

🔥🖤🔥

[@sharlharmakhis280]

Horizon Zero Dawn sequel, big f'in (mechanical) turtle...

[@FinalFirebrand]

It's so weird hearing from people who actually liked 4E...all I ever knew was 4E is garbage, forget it, pick 3.5 or 5 from the groups I played with.

[@Thedungeoncast]

It has its issues, but there are a ton awesome ideas and deep lore that 4E offers.

[@mcswaggerduff8946]

The most basic of information

[@JWSulzer90]

10 commercials..... really.
