    I've never heard of a disenchanter but the amount of rage they could produce is terrifying.

          It probably doesn't have very good attacks.

            spells require a saving throw and don't "hit"
            also, this thing literally cannot deal damage, if you encounter it before you find any magic item it's harmless

              literally not the point unless your DM is kind enough to fill a dungeon with nothing but these

              Not if you come in with a bunch of magic items you value. Say goodbye to that +5 sword you were gonna use against the 2nd encounter

            This isn’t DCC, shots to the head automatically occur only 10%. You can’t just decide to hit it in the head.

              Literally hit it ANYWHERE.
              The only 'disenchant' effect is if it actively uses its snot.
              You deflecting to 'oh its only 10%' doesn't change the fact you are too fricking around to read

    How would you handle this dungeon, /tg/?

    • 8 months ago
      Anonymous

      Assuming OotS situation, the same way they're handling it, let the person who designed it all help you pick the ideal spot to ambush your enemies and achieve your objective.
      If we throw out the context, orbital bombardment to annihilate the entire thing and every being within miles.

      Stand well back and hire/summon beings to set off traps like OOTS vs the vampires

      Research the dungeon and its makers ahead of time to work out common abilities and counter measures against antimagic and the like.

      The GM counter to this is of course time pressure and intelligent active beings like Tucker’s kobolds.

      The same think Xykon's going to do, stomp over it all with raw magic prowess. What does he care about losing a minor enchanted item or two, rusting that doesn't do shit, losing some unneeded Dexterity and having a big CC n' nuke target?

      • 8 months ago

        As undead Xykon can't even lose any dex
        All these traps might be pretty dangerous to a standard party
        But not to a lich

      It's way too annoying so bypass it somehow. Maybe dig through the magic scry blocking rock or go search out some alternate version of scry / teleport that isn't being countered.

    Thog approves of dungeon design parodying gygax days.

      You could Thog out everything but the first two and last two panels and it would be just as much substance.

        For plot, probably fair.
        But old school frick-you monsters and scheming dungeon design are fun.
        Plus, who knows, maybe in the end, amidst the ruins of the dungeon, Redcloak will turn on Xykon, the MitD will eat him and spit out the phylactery as instructed in the prequel book, and one of the disenchanters will happen to be there to disenchant the phylactery and render Xykon mortal without his realizing it.
        They could end up being load-bearing creatures and while it will never matter I like the idea of my thogs providing 100% of the story with less yammering.

      Froghemoth, Rust Monster and Disenchanters are all from the books. No idea about Poets though.

      The Dex drain from the "fumblebees" matches up with earlier editions of Giant Wasps. the poets and kneestealers seem made up.

    The last page was so similar to the first page of the comic that I thought they'd been hit by another mind-spell/illusion like in the dragon-family's desert dungeon. I got totally confused.
