milkisklim, Harry Dresden approves this message
tslnox, Yeah! Thanks, you were a bit faster. :-D
FeetinMashedPotatoes, I’m waiting for people to just mod a fucking .45 Caliber into Baldurs Gate 3 so I can blast Gortash in his fucking head the first time I see him
Nalivai, I am so much ready for Artificer dlc. I am ready with every fiber of my being
iAvicenna, Try Arcanum if you havent
qarbone, Shoulda checked like 3 weeks ago. They had you sorted already.
OpenStars, Tell me more about these “spells”, which occur in limited numbers, are capable of long-range attacks, deal explosive & powerful damage… and can only be performed by someone who has the proper equipment and spends time in advance preparing them for use? :-D
Jilanico,
ouRKaoS, This is the 2nd time today that I’ve ran across a caster on Lemmy & I’m loving it!
experbia, no… no! Don’t remind me of Outlaw Star!
I’ll need to watch it again! It’s been so very long. It is such a core part of my aesthetic & genre preferences since I first saw it as a teenager, but I haven’t seen it in a good while.
OpenStars, Why does this remind me of a lightsaber? Oh yes I see, it is the personal love and craftsmanship of its construction, noice:-D.
sundray, An elegant weapon for a more civilized age.
OpenStars, More civilized than now, that’s for sure, sigh:-(.
CodexArcanum, I loved Outlaw Star! Such cool world building!
hakunawazo, Is this an American remake of lord of the rings?
tias,
Someone64, Unfortunately a mediocre, rushed game.
draneceusrex,
Deebster, I had no idea this existed but now Ralph Bakshi’s Wizards is top of my to-watch list.
nxdefiant, Came here to post this, damn.
Kolanaki, (edited ) Thops pulling out an AR-15
“Who’s the bluntstone now, bitches?! Bet you wish you had my shield magic now, don’t you, you stupid stone-faced bastards!”
Raya Lucaria scholars fleeing in terror
“Who gave that maniac a key to the gate?!”
KreekyBonez, “hey tarnished, don’t go to academy today…”
BeautifulMind, Simple jinx should cause most firearms to fail or jam In a universe where guns exist and level-1 wizards can cast magic missile/fireball and cantrips like firebolt, setting fire to things (like gunpowder), my bet is that low-level magic users aren’t going to be trumped by steampunk-grade tech that easily
vithigar, (edited ) You could make that argument for almost any weapon though. The physical meddling required to snap a bowstring, dull a blade, or even just put a rock in their shoe is minimal. Magic needs to have limits if you want the mundane to compete at any level, and one of those limits is often an unspoken acceptance that you can’t just arbitrarily foul another person’s gear.
herrwoland, AI memes are taking over huh
The_Picard_Maneuver, I wondered the same thing, but I really can’t tell if this is AI or not. Does something give it away to you?
I think “wizard-posting” has been a thing since before the AI rush.
0Xero0, Well he has five normal looking fingers so I guess it’s not AI?
aviationeast, I’ve heard about a spellsword would this be a spell rifle?
nxdefiant, (edited ) Dissolusionist.
Assman, Magnumancer
GregorGizeh, I vote for Wizgun.
LogicalDrivel, Warglock
HipsterTenZero, Gattlemage
c0mbatbag3l, The Spifleman’s Creed
pimento64, AI trash
wabafee, You shall eat lead!
Dutczar, I didn’t understand the title before the pic loaded so here it is
Shit llepsretnuoc
Honytawk, Casts Shield
Like that is going to matter
AngryCommieKender, (edited ) Elminster took one level of Fighter for a reason. Even without the 3 levels of Cleric, or the level of Rogue, that one level of Fighter helps every Wizard once the enemy is too close to safely cast. Automatic proficiency with all basic and martial weapons is useful at close range. Especially if one happened to pick up a Vorpal Keen Katana that one happens to be proficient with.
Oh, and taking a Pseudodragon Familiar gives the Wizard the Improved Evasion Feat, so you just kinda became almost immune to other wizards because if you fail a DEX check, you take half damage, and almost all of the Wizard direct damage spells require a DEX check.
