    Hello

    I used a method to find the size of a location but apparently the method was rejected. Is this method really wrong?
    Mr. Bambu
    Mr. Bambu
    I'm really not the person to ask, since that method is only really used in anime stuff I'm far from familiar with. Like genuinely I have no godly idea.

    Hey!

    There's been a Monster Hunter thread created recently regarding the lower tier Elder Dragons, the thread mentions that their old calculation doesn't seem to go by our rules anymore. Could you help out when you get some time!
    There's already been a new calc created for if the thread goes through.

    Manga generally isn't my field of expertise so if you're asking for help in visually identifying something, chances are all I can do is fail yah. That said, I can take a deeper look later, aye.

    Well, I want to say thank you first. You're very quick to respond to these messages so you've become my go-to-calc guy. I apologize for presenting these dilemmas to you when you're not specialized in the area and hopefully a verse-knowledgeable calc group member can evaluate it soon.

    can I get a second opinion on the Oryx page? I think it looks fine at this point but I don't want to be wrong about that

    I mean. Quote is literally

    {{Quote|Words words words punctuation}}, with the option of {{Quote|Words words words punctuation|Speaker of Quote's name here}}

    You'd classify something as a power, and then in parentheses add further context. So, for example, [[Disease Manipulation]] (Can inflict the SICK status)

    I mean regeneration negation is what Sick is so yeh. May as well do that

    No COVID if that's what you mean, been pretty quiet in my neck of the woods, though I was treated to a man in WalMart trying to run away from workers trying to give him a mask.

    Other than that... life's going, I s'pose. Doesn't feel like it's Christmas, but that's not super surprising.

    Damn, there are really still people who don't take this shit seriously everywhere huh.

Hope onto discord and sing Jingle Bells with me if you want ovo

    @Zanybrainy2000 so we're looking at a normal human speed with like 9-C to 9-B feats, basically.

    "since there are plenty of anti-feats such as Ronald dying to a gunshot."

    Ronald is seen still moving and blinking proving he isn't dead as corpses can't do that

    "the player dying to mundane things in the first Airplane such as snakes,"

    Snakes can deal piercing damage and poison

    "C4 strapped to their chest, or.. anything else that'd kill a normal person"

    Explosions can vary in size and energy

    "Ronald is stated and has shown to be capable of various things as a monster/spirit, but to say his body surviving what isn't even a direct crash would scale to the entire cast is just out of the blue.

    In short: Ronald doesn't scale."

    The Players only get attacked by Ronald directly in Airplane 2 so it's possible they got stronger as time did pass between games also you should likely provide more evidence for the scaling being false.

    "This doesn't push aside other possible feats, of course, so we're still up for suggestion on that."

    Good

    So I'm just wondering, how would a page for WoW's Mr. Bigglesworth look like?

    I'm shocked that what was accepted on the deathwing crt hasn't been applied yet. I mean good lord!
    Mr. Bambu
    Mr. Bambu
    what was accepted/why precisely can't you do it, given it was your CRT?
    DaReaperMan
    DaReaperMan
    Weakness addition, stamina outlining, removal of magic resistance and putting mind and fear manipulation as resistances
    I'm mostly just tired of screwing with profiles for awhile, bigglesworth was just something I wanted to do to burn some steam off and have a battle pet(why tho blizz?) In Warcraft. It was a one-time thing and editing profiles is fairly hard on this tablet, considering when I'm typing i can't see anything else. In other words I'm lazy, and admit as such.
    Hellbeast
    Yo

    So you mentioned storms were dropped from physical scaling?

    Do you know where that was decided?
    Mr. Bambu
    Mr. Bambu
    There was a thread but it was like over a year ago. I should note, it conditionally can scale- namely it was decided that if it is performed through an energy source that also fuels equally-as-powerful attacks (e.g., magic).
    Hellbeast
    Hellbeast
    Ah I see

    Was going to say that could be a pretty big nuke to some verses (like Mortal Kombat)

    i shudder at retail wow, classic is leagues better by light years, unfortunately me playing MMORPG's outside of maybe for a week at most is a rare occurrence
    Mr. Bambu
    Mr. Bambu
    I dug it up to Mists. I played Mists for about a month and cancelled, it was just getting silly with the ****** pet battles. Wrath was my favorite.
    DaReaperMan
    DaReaperMan
    Blizzard will never get a better Villian then Arthas, though knowing that he was being mindfucked by the jailor during Wrath was surprising and didnt bring my hopes up at all cause theyre going to ruin Arthas in shadowlands and the jailor is going to be a shit villian, if blizzard makes Wrath Classic that is what ill be playing 24/7 when i get interested in playing WoW.

    Hey, sorry to bother you.
    When you get time could you take a look at this calc, it's for a small verse i'm working on but a couple characters need it for pretty much all of their stats. So any input would be greatly appreciated.
    Mr. Bambu
    Mr. Bambu
    I've actually played this game, believe it or not. Years ago, back on the original Xbox. I'll help you out.

    Heya, I know that most mod are busy with various things going on in and outside of Wikis. But I wonder if you could shed some thought on this CRT for Kamen Rider. I know that you aren’t a fan of the verse, but I need some outside perspective to check if the abilities I listed should be added or not.

    It’s fine if you don’t want to do it though. Wished you a good day.
    Mr. Bambu

    Responded, really dunno what to say on there though.

    Hey, could I possibly trouble you with a calc request?

    Alright, bring the heavily wounded back to the village, the rest follow us—”
    A sudden burst of flame cut his speech short.
    A heat wave radiated out to the surrounding, the two fairies caught in the
    midst of the fire were swaying weakly.
    After the flame dispersed completely without a trace, the appearance of the
    two fairies was terrible. They were on the verge of falling from that one attack.
    Before anyone could scream, the flame blasted once again. The fairies couldn’t
    withstand the attack and their bodies began to crumble, dispersing into the
    fire.
    The powerful fairies that displayed unmatched strength against the undead
    beasts were gone. The lizardmen couldn’t process what was happening and
    had blank expressions.

    While there's already a calc of this feat, it assumes the mud fairies are hemispheres, which they do not appear to be based on manga and anime showings of them.

    They are 160 cm tall btw

    They are made out of mud, no idea why the calc uses stone.
    Before them appeared two armless and legless lumps of mud, around one hundred sixty centimeters tall.
    The two clumps of mud began moving.
    They had no legs, but they moved adroitly and smoothly over the wetlands, towards the Beast Zombies. After closing the distance, the mud-clumps sprouted whips that were longer than them from the places where a human’s arms would have been.
    This was one of the trump cards of the Lizardmen, the Swamp Spirits summoned by the combined efforts of all the priests.

    Hi, since you're a supporter of Warcraft, I wanted to inform you that I removed the image links of non-existent profiles from the verse page (as decided here).
    I'm sure that you already know it, but the previous layout can be seen from the history of the verse and the pictures can be restored if the respective profiles is made

    That's fine, that shit bothered me for quite a long time anyways. Cheers.

    I meant I used to be completely fine with dark souls lightning, but my personal standards on what counts as legitimate lightning have tightened greatly over the last few months.

    Greetings

    You hate people using the haxed tier 2 DnD characters

    What are characters you want to see matches for that AREN'T these people so that we have at least some type of good match that isn't worth yawning over.

    Scratch that, found him.

    He... probably beats Vimes? By right of having actual hax. I don't think he could drive Vimes insane given that Vimes has spoken to Death on numerous occasions, but all the others **** Vimes over hard. Probably a stomp.

    Hello. We haven't talked in some time but here I'm.

    I've been reading through DnD e3, e5, and forgotten realms for some time, and to my surprise, I found Celestial Emperor, 9 Immortals, and 9 Lesser Immortals in Forgotten Realms - Kara-Tur. Chinamen basically. Hehe, likely you already knew about this campaign. Curious if you plan to add it on wiki. Also, do you know if any update for it exist, as in 4e and 5e since the last version is 3e.
    Mr. Bambu
    Mr. Bambu
    I'm aware of Kara-Tur and have most of the older books on it, including 3.5e's Oriental Adventures. If I were to add it, it would be from 3.5e's sources first since I'm most familiar with that source. I hadn't made any particular plans on adding Kara-Tur stuff yet, since there are more relevant pages to work on that I personally like more, but I have leafed through it and considered certain things for pages. The fireball-spitting frog, for example, almost made me immediately make a page for it.

    Oriental Adventurers didn't survive the transition to 4e/5e, unfortunately, though if you want to play Oriental Adventures in those editions you can always turn to Homebrew, which I do have resources for (namely in the form of Monsters of the Orient/Heroes of the Orient for 5e).
    Zaratthustra

    Haven't been looking that much in how to play the campaign and the like but most in the lore of DnD, characters, monsters, and the like since that's what it piked my interest. The lore, the magic, the creatures, and the like is what fascinates me. I will likely try some campaigns in the future but once I got more free time. Not just Kara-Tur (this was just something I was more familiar with thanks to the all xianxia/xuanhuan novels I've read), but likely more.

    I like interesting, weird, and unique concepts. That's what got me in DnD lore...after reading some profiles, blogs, and well after your thread on "creating a stat sheat for characters in DnD style" plus your old bracket on making a team of 4 to clear levels with DnD monsters. At the same time, I'm currently reading a book series...well when I get time between all other things I read and is inspired by DnD thanks to the author being a fan of it. The book series if I'm not wrong started from a play (campaign) of his on DnD. The series is Malazan Book of the Fallen - 23 book series.

    I have some 3.5 materials also as those were the first I got then when I asked you about some stuff on discord.
    Mr. Bambu
    Mr. Bambu
    If you're after weird, Mystara, Spelljammer, Dark Sun, and Eberron are probably up your alley- they deviate heavily from the standard fantasy concepts. If you don't know, Kara-Tur is a subsection of The Forgotten Realms settings, though I believe each setting probably has an Oriental section of it.

    I've been considering redoing that stat sheet idea, reopening it for the new forum.

    If you ever need any D&D materials, feel free to ask, either here or on Discord. I've got loads of it, I'd be happy to send shit over.

    Hello Mr.Bambu,
    There is a claim regarding this statement, and I was invited to ask a calc member for confirmation:
    A sea-demon feared for hailing storms and casting ships into the abyss.
    It was claimed (even after referencing the generic storm calculation) that this statement is useless for calc'ing or assigning a tier to the sea-demon (even as Environmental Destruction), because we don't see the storm while it was being created, and we don't have a direct scale for it or how fast the sea-demon created the storm. Is this true?
    Mr. Bambu
    Mr. Bambu
    Can you link me to where this claim was made?
    ShadowWhoWalks
    ShadowWhoWalks
    Mr. Bambu
    Mr. Bambu
    I've responded and said it should be fine to use the standard calc as Environmental Destruction.
    DaReaperMan
    Huh. well someone came with some good Speed of Light things in the Deathwing CRT, they seem okay to me but id like you to take a look, sorry for bothering you
    Hellbeast
    Heyy king
    How are you finding the new forums
    Mr. Bambu
    Mr. Bambu
    The fact that this didn't show up in my messages should be indication enough that these things are kinda finicky. Other than that, can't complain, it's not terrible.

    Hbu? What's up, need anything?
