That's DnD combat in a nutshell for you.

Armor here doesn't reduce your damage, but makes your attacks glance and miss.

The thing is, the game is made for a storytelling perspective and you don't miss if you glance the armour, but the attack is still negated, so the computer game is adapted to be ...

Play a Monk. Hit with fists and feet. It doesn't matter about the flavour text, because you're using unarmed attacks. If you want to do chokes etc. Use grapple. Trip for trip, etc. Just master your combat maneuvers and have a good Int for using them. Take Improved Grapple asap.

Now, that I have time, I will elaborate.

Wizards aren't equal sorcerers. Wizards are supposed to be versatile, and adjustable, while sorcerers have XX spells, and excel at casting them multiple times. While a wizard can change the spells for the situation, a sorcerer has to go with his pool.

Good video, although you could have shortened the written messages and put in the scenes you're missing, it would make him better, he's so good because of his humanity, and lack thereof.

NO one asked you to be an obedient little puppy and where you got that idea is beyond me.

I directly stated I really didn't want any character killers in my game and I expected your characters to cooperate
Hilarious.

Well I'm not going to play anymore. The game's just dull, sorry.

I'll give you a few comments:

- The game you're trying to DM is going to become pretty much dull if the whole thing is going to go as planned. That's popularly called "Railroading" and is considered a bad sign. You need to plan some ...

If I wasn't able to pick up the sword, and it's still on ground, I stand up, stand with my foot on it's handle, and try to break it, hitting with my weapon.

I take up the magic sword and examine it's aura, I should feel if it's evil.

If it is evil, I shatter it.

If it isn't evil per se, maybe a weird mix I have seen before and any kind of nonevil, then I take it to my table and put it in the middle.

Vierro

"Your magic will not help you against true judgement."

Vierro raises his greatsword in a huge arc, he says a quiet prayer and the sword starts glowing with divine power.

Smite!

Attack roll: 15+2+4+1+3 = 25
Damage roll: 8(2d6)+8 = 16

I now also have 21 AC against the Orc.

I didn't yell at the whole tavern: "I AM GOING TO TORTURE HIS ASS TO KNOW WHY HE IS EVIL." I was telling to my table, the adventurers and our employer, in a normal manner of speaking, and I am going to fight him if I have to, as a paladin I'm not retracting my statement, so let me die in peace with ...

"Then, as we travel so soon I may let it pass, but he'll have his dues soon, I can feel it."

Vierro finally stops looking at the weird orc and turns around to the table. There's his traveling group, along with Keb on top of the table. The conversation started somewhat.

The paladin enters the bar, observing an argument between his comrade and an orc. Seeing the orc threaten, he casts detect evil, just staring at the situation. After observing his aims, he nears the mage, and engages into light chatter.
