Season 3 gets that high on customizability alone, and for it's overall improvements to the shop system. There's a LOT really good in season 3 that can be adapted and changed pretty easily with some work.

Nah you’re so right

I misread

Season 3 gets a lot of flack but I liked it

A mix of S2 and S3 stuff is probably ideal

Season 3 with some actual changes and design easily claps season 2 design wise but without it it's def lower

^^^

Yes

Pure Season 2 is probably slighty better then Pure Season 3, but if you're putting in any work at all you def start from the season 3 chassis

I was trying to bring over a lot of season 3’s stuff to the season 2 ruleset

But I wasnt motivated enough

Season 3's class system is infinitely better then 2's

The ability shop was amazing

A lot of season 3's races were fucking terrible, however

Keens got SO fucked for no reason lmfao

Season 3 just locks you in too hard with randoms

yeah

like, I'd immediately do "Choose from 3" as the baseline for attribute and cornerstone

Yes yes

I liked the ability to grow out of your attribute over time too

Keens were one of the better ones just because you could customize more

Truly the cornerstone/attribute system really made the whole system for me

The idea that you can roll shit like ageless and completely fuck up the campaign premise for the dm is so funny

But it also opens opportunity for interesting writing and creativity

yeah Keens were good for the choose 3, but it was a genuine "What the fuck?" as to why they lost their most iconic ability

like they no longer felt like gnomes

What’d they have originally

passback

I forget

where they could use other people's ability treasures

Oh yeah! That was neat.

I guess I can see how that’d be overpowered with the shitty season 3 meta

Elf and porc often could be good, but it filled your inventory with so much bullshit

The best designed race from season 3 was hilariously the one slapdashed together at the end

with Azveltarian

The transform effect was the only time ever having a companion was worth shit in your inventory

There was that one dark companion spell that just made you immortal

Hehehe

The bonedancer's companion

I kinda think the potential for crazy gamebreaking combos was neat

And since every session was a one shot it didn’t matter much

Season 3 was too spastic, abilities either had to do 99 damage or heal to full

season 3 leaned hard into the "one shot" nature of URealms

I do love how Rob kept INSISTING death rolls were good for players to use as well

like no

a 1/20 chance to insta kill the boss is near never worth it in that system

If a player died to a death roll early it would ruin the show

After dundinborough he said there were no more backup characters unless you had a companion

Death Rolls in general probably could've used a tweak where you needed multiple fails to die

I think as a show, death rolls should have been "how far into the campaign you were". An hour in? 1/100, near the end, as low as a 1/2

Didn’t he make it so the more you rolled the harder it was to live

yes

I'd have gone with each character has multiple "Lives", and when they lose them all they die call them like, "Brushes with Death" or something

Later in season 3

I thought that was pretty good

We also had it early in season 3 technically

A lot of the good parts of the show were solely due to luck of the dice

With deadbones fuckin old man

"You're having a heart attack. Your death roll number goes up by 1."

Everyone got lucky as hell in buckeroos, and that made the final fight one of the best

Hehehe

Buckeroos was so cool

I again am insisting that Buckeroos vs Murder Bros was the best campaigns of the show

and hey look, NO AGELESS PLOT

I loved deadbones’ bandito so much I stole him for my D&d campaign

Orvan Weiss

Such a cool name and cool character

his spellthief

And he got to escape in the end with his legendary

So cool

god, agreed

Orvan was one of DB's best, and you could tell from how excited he was making him

"I'm an ANCIENT, CRIMINAL!"

Like, it lined up so perfect

what also made him was seemingly how much Rob didn't care about the character LMFAO

idk what you guys think, but crit fails are way too punishing

Double damage against yourself/allies really just fucks everything up

Is that what it did? Yeesh

I don't know why he constantly flip flopped on it being double damage

normally it was just "Affects an ally or goes awry" which was fine
