Uhhhh… in Houston?

Making crabs even more appealing is that they’re native to Florida, just in relatively low numbers. (“Everything eats them,” Spadaro said.) Adding them to the reef is unlikely to have any grave unintended consequences for the ecosystem, Spadaro said, especially considering that there are few other herbivores.

Yeah

It’s a little hard to imagine for us Americans, but internationally WhatsApp has a thriving unofficial ecosystem of businesses operating solely out of the chat app.

I love to hate on Meta as much as the next guy on Lemmy, but this is probably one of the sounder business decisions Meta has made in awhile.

…she shared her small enclosure with a male orca named Hugo for the first decade of her captivity. In 1980, Hugo died from a brain aneurysm after an extended period of banging his head against the tank's spectator glass during fits of depression.

Just wanted to drop in and say that I love the unique design! It’s a little unhinged maybe but we absolutely need more fun apps like this for the fediverse. Will be trying it out. Thanks for working on it!

+1 for Lemmy.zip! Great folks here and an admin who cares a lot for the community.

Yep I’ve been keeping the quarterstaff on. It helps that it also has an ensnare modifier on it.

I took your advice, respecced and just chose ability points for high Dex and Wis for my 4 elements monk. I will see how this goes!

That's great advice! Thanks again. Frankly I'm a little jealous that my wife's barbarian is absolutely shredding through enemies with a self-returning javelin and I'm here with my sheepy monk finishing off the 1 health enemies because my damage is so low compared to hers.

Anyway, that's all to say that I'll take any recommendation that makes my monk more interesting in fights. I like the RP of playing as a monk, just not the weak sauce attacks. The utility of spells in way of the 4 elements has been fun though. We don't have another spellcaster in the party so the push/pull/prone affects have been fantastic.

Thanks for the explanation. I see the original intent now. It does look like the version in BG3 is slightly more crippled than the original 5e take.

Charger: Weapon Attack does appear to do 5 more damage as my usual weapon attack is a 1d8+3, but the dash range is only 9m. With my normal movement range of 12m, that's a total of 21m. A main action dash would've been 24m. Coupled with monk flurry of blows bonus action, it actually makes more sense to just dash + flurry rather than use this feat if my intention is maximizing range.

Charger: Shove runs into the same range issues. But with no 10 feet bonus to the push. Once again, a main action dash + bonus action shove works better and without taking up a feat.

Thanks for the note on respec. I haven't talked to Withers till now.

It is sometimes possible to leave a conversation or scene. We’ve done this before and had another character jump in to run the skill check.

This is true for all browsers that have an incognito mode, not just Firefox.

Unless you’re using Tor, there’s not really a way to go 99% incognito.

I generally enjoy monk classes so it was an easy pick here. It’s been a blast to have so much initiative that I always go first in my group 😌.
