      @@annafantasia Per Matt's description, after using her Gust of Wind cantrip (which Matt has numerous times described to her as a "gentle fart", yet she insists on using it to move stuff), she had a 50/50 chance to hit rock or water (he rolled percentage dice to determine which), so another small push---or glide, in the case of the flying fish, would have been enough. Not saying it was a great option, but it would have been better than goldfish. I would have opted for a cormorant personally, for both the flying and diving capabilities, but if you listen to Matt through the crosstalk, looks like he was going to let her get away without damage if she hit the water in fish form. Many DM's wouldn't be that generous since hitting the surface of the water near terminal velocity after a 1000+ ft fall is like hitting a wall at 100+ mph. My point is not that Marisha is a moron, it's that after a 4-year campaign and as a 17th level druid, she still doesn't properly read her spell descriptions or even think in terms of basic D&D rules (it's not the first time they've suffered damage from falls). She behaves like this is an improv' session instead of a game with a detailed set of rules, and then she gets mad at Matt or takes it personally when he simply applies them (often generously in her case).

      @@stevenclark5173
      Technically, this rule is not on par with mechanics of the 5e and she would have died anyway, probably too damaged. And Vex would never remember of the coin by herself, and so on...
      "The 20d6 maximum damage from falling has been around since at least 2nd edition D&D, and is repeated in 5th edition D&D. This is an average of 70 points of damage. It has a realistic range of about 55 to 85 (you can verify this on anydice.com).
      The problem is that the damage from falling does not scale between the editions, as 5th edition characters have much more hit points and can survive to much lower negative hit point amounts.
      The 200 foot fall that would normally outright kill a 2nd edition PC with 60 hit points, as they could only survive to -9 hit point, will only knock out a 5th edition character with the same amount of hit points. It would require 120 points of damage to be rolled to kill the 5th edition character, a 6 on each die, which is virtually impossible.
      Besides the issue with negative hit points, 2nd edition PCs generally have less hit points than their 5th edition counterparts at the same level. They receive less hit point bonuses from the same Constitution score; rogues, clerics, and wizards use smaller ranger for hit dice; and hit points increase only a small token amount after level 9.
      Your average level 10 wizard in 2nd edition would have 25 to 30 hit points. A 70 foot fall would kill them outright. A level 10 wizard in 5th edition however will probably have a little more than 50 hit points. They would be able to stand up, brush the dust off their clothes, and walk away from that same fall.
      A 5th edition character only needs about 45 hit points to reliably survive maximum fall damage (less than 1% chance the DM will roll above 90). That is achievable to most warriors by around level 5 if they have 14 Constitution or more (which is about normal). A 2nd edition character would need 100 hit points to boast the same, which your average warrior - if they had a nice Constitution - could do around level 18. Clerics, rogues, and wizard would never get near this.
      The relative threat of falling is just so much less now.
      [To fix this] I have two suggestions.
      Increase damage dice from falling to a d8 per 10' fallen.
      No damage cap for falling damage. Each 10' fallen is d8 blunt damage.
      These rules don't completely negate how easily character survive high falls, a character with 100 hit points would have a 50% chance of surviving a 450' drop (...)

      I really liked that moment, especially considering Percy doesn't even worship any gods, let alone Pelor. I feel like it's a lot like atheists saying "oh my God" or "sweet baby Jesus" or sth like that. Not because they believe in God _or_ Jesus but just because so many people say it that you just learn it as a phrase of exclamation. And considering Pelor is pretty much the patron God of Whitestone there were probably plenty of people around Percy growing up, who said "Oh sweet Pelor" or sth similar.

The shapeshift in to a gold fish only confirms that, which she did after hearing of at least 300ft until she hits the 1st section of rocks (not even the water level rocks). She genuinely thought that an aquatic lifeform would be excluded of the gravity/fall rules as long as it went in to a body of water.

Question is, should the dice to calculate fall damage be reduced? The amount of force you hit the ground with is considerably less as a goldfish than as a human (or half-elf), regardless of hitting rocks or water.

      Ever heard of the so-called "suspension of disbelief", mate?
      Marisha as a player declaring they are practically gods (hence she can do it, no matter how idiotic) break the suspension of disbelief.
      It thins out the weight and meaning of each PC "death" when she acts in a way that clearly suggests that no meaningful consequences will come from it. It feels like there are no stakes in the game, like playing blackjack with casino's money.
      That in my opinion was far more metagaming than anything Orion ever did and it was so because it was using the external knowledge (catalysed by her arrogance and ignorance and lack of paying attention) that there will be no consequences to her acrions no matter what they are.
      What made it worse was her reaction to the situation and consequences.
      They should really implement some penalties for dying, not temporary ones like feeling ill and having ability checks with a negative modificator or disadvantage but something like "losing top 2 tiers of spells for 3 sessions or abilities etc"

      Negative criticism isnt valid, I understand. It's better to be morally right than factually wrong.

      Some of these comments make me sad... insulting a person for how they play the character that they made.... That's not what this community is about and the people making those comments dont deserve to watch if they are gonna be like that...
      What would Mercer say :(

      ​@@christianjacobs8989 You are legit just a prick for saying that. Last I checked no one needed a degree to play DnD. DnD is meant to be a fun time with friends, yet here you are insulting Marisha despite knowing little to nothing about her on a personal level all because you disagree with how she plays.
      She is forgetful and she has her quirks, but that's no reason to insult her over a _game._ The lack in intelligence falls to you if you're willing to go as far as to insult someone over DnD. You don't have to have brains to play DnD, you just need imagination and friends.

    Keyleth's base jump gets even funnier when you realize she has the highest Wisdom score of any player character this far.

      I have so many mixed feelings about Keyleth. She has a lot of funny moments, but she also gets a bit infuriating at times. I like the character, but if I met her I’m really life, I would probably have to seriously resist the urge to tear my hair out in frustration.

      @@TotallyNotLoki I think the problem is she doesn't play high wisdom or intelligence well. So it creates a disconnect between what her character should be capable of vs how she plays her. If she was a Barbarian with average to low Int/Wis, like Grog/Scanlan, this disconnect wouldn't exist for many people.
