      Rustage, is there a way one can get that (Devil Fruit List) you made for the (One piece D&D)? I want to do a (One piece D&D) with my friends but I'm not as knowledgeable as y'all, is there a website to go to, any info would be nice, please.

      I know this is such a minor nitpick against the entirety of that fun episode but I will say that you can cast two spells a turn. They just can't be an action and bonus action, so it's why counter spell and a spell works for example

    As a One Piece D&D fan, love seeing that for an episode titled which is about D&D & the worst D&D players we have a picture of William. Chaos & some of the most out of pocket shit came from William, that’s why he’s No. 1 character in the series.
    I never realised how quickly the characters in OP D&D reached the highest levels until I watched other campaigns cuz in 70 Ep’s they were Lv. 17-18 by the end of the Roger fight
    Great episode, it’s really fun & the chemistry between you two is amazing.

    The trick for dealing with power players is to not. Reward them building their character like that and having knowledge of how the game works. As long as everyone is having fun who cares if they carry combat? It can be kinda cool at times.

    I just want to say I love this. I became aware of Rustage about three years ago through his nerdcore stuff, I think it was his Kakashi rap. And I love his music, but since then I've seen his reactions, his manga reviews, and of course his DnD series. After getting to know his personality I genuinely enjoy hearing his opinions. Now, I'm not just a fan of Daniel Rustage as an artist, but I'm a fan of him as a person. You're awesome man.

    I’ve just gotten it into DnD because of Rustage’s series and it’s One Piece Dnd. I ran some one shots before so I can get used to dming and the party was bounty hunters and found the ship of the pirate they were going after. I planned out like 3 layers of this ship and cool little things to collect and they just said screw this, let’s burn the thing with their torches in their explorer kits. I laughed so hard

    As someone who got into you, your content, and One Piece as a whole thanks to OPD&D and Isekai D&D, I'm thrilled to be getting both another form of Rustage media to enjoy, and that the first episode is D&D related. That tip about building encounters/enemies was genuinely one of the most helpful things I've heard so far as a soon-to-be first-time DM who stresses more over the combat than the roleplay. Cannot wait for the next episode, and excited to see what topic's up for discussion next!!

    I like the more self aware discussion on the game state of DnD like you guys lightly touched on like the balance discussion and how you enjoy implimenting times to "Shoot the Monk" so your players can feel empowered and have fun with their character's abilities.
    Also "Dungeon" design philosophy, because sometimes there is a literal tomb you trek through to find a key for treasure, other times its simply getting into a circus where some big bozo is hiding.
    How do you find new ways to get your player's to engage with your worlds?

    Tekking joining your One Piece campaign was what first got me into finally seeing what D&D is like, and is why I'm now running my own games as the role of the DM was basically made for me!
    I was like, I had heard of the game, but was never overly interested in checking it out more, but then someone entertaining who I follow that I can listen to the videos of for long periods of time while drawing joins a game, with one thing I knew about D&D was that it will include bunch of people talking a bunch, so I figured it was the perfect opportunity! And with the few groups I've watched over youtube, yours and Jocat's games have by far been my favourites!
    I don't think it even took me more than two or three sessions of One Piece D&D for me to buy the core books and start looking up the full rules when the entire concept of the game was really interesting and fun, and where my ability to make up stuff as I go and the hobby of drawing and doing comics came in handy, and by now I've even brought two adventures to an end (Lost Mine & Golden Vault)
    Heck, I'm currently listening this podcast while working on the map for a silly one-shot I'm planning to throw at my group!

    i overwrite the crap out of my stories. but for dungeons and dragons i only write out the characters. their backstories, their personalities... all the way up to the point i can answer pretty much any question that can be understood by them as that character. the only part of your story you have control over is up to the point you have the campaign starts.
    once you have a solid theme for the campaign (for more complex campaigns id recommend giving all characters their own theme/style which is build to react into the greater tone of the campaign) all you do is just slowly move the players toward that theme with the characters you have available. treat the players autonomy as an active undercurrent of your theme. if they work with it, the characters react to that and the world shifts toward them. if they are antagonistic force to your theme, the conflict writes itself.
    first campaign i lead absolutely fell apart, because it had nothing to do with anyone, other than the players immediate interests.
    the current one im running has 8 factions all of which have interacted with at least two others, and the group is right in the middle of all the politics (so much so that the party is currently on a diplomatic to make peace with the techno-progressive faction which as far as the law abiding dwarves are concerned are techno-terriorists whos radical actions will bring down the clockwork nirvana of mechans down onto the underdark like a rather aggressive sack of bricks [as if the underdark wasnt bad enough already], which to be fair is an easy mistake to make when the leader of the techno-progressive factions is a blue dragon in an armorsuit so advanced that it gets its own initiative in the turn order)

    Statistically, accounting for feats, items, etc, overall Twilight Cleric and Chronurgy Wizard are probably the strongest classes in the game, outside of very specific elf dex fighters that either use legendary firearms or crit fish with a vorpal Double Bladed Scimitar. With multiclass, that changes a bit, but, the most powerful support build in the game is Astral elf chronurgy wizard with the strip haven witherbloom background and the feytouched feat. As long as you can find a way to pick up guidance, the build gets insane. You get druid spells, turning you into a mini Cleric, and you get the most versatile spell list in the game. So what if your dpr drops a lot? With your buffs, debuffs, cc, and support, you make everyone else hella broken in your stead. Plus, your so mobile that you'll only get cornered if the dm is actively trying to kill you or you're an idiot. With the right items, you can hit 26 int and 7 prof and potentially up to +6 on your spell attacks/saves for a save DC of 29 and spell attack mod of 21. The only way to get a similar spell save is 19 bard / 1 twilight Cleric (hitting 22 CHa) with amulet of the devout + jesters mask + rhythm makers drum, which goes to dc 29 / +21 to hit, or Cleric/paladin with amulet of the devout + fate dealers deck + delirium crystal focus for DC 28 / +20 to hit.

    19:55 I relate so much to this. I have a bard character (Funnily enough in my friend groups own one piece D&D) and they have expertise in persuasion. I think we're level 8 and they have a +15 or something crazy in persuasion and deception and when it comes to rolling deception its easy. Because lying is easy but if I need to genuinely persuade someone to do something I find that I (as the player) have a really hard time creating persuasive arguments. Additionally my character is quite smart, Smart enough to invent a hot air balloon after discovering steam in a just a few minutes and I am not so when the DM frequently does these riddle challenges I always think "Man my character would totally have a good answer for these but I don't" it doesn't exactly help that he (rightfully honestly) doesn't let us just roll intelligence to get past (Since that would be to easy to be a "Challenge") but it still bugs me from time to time.

    I feel like Rustage's group would be chaotic, and Shwabadi's group would fallow the qust.

    I think it's Miyamoto Musashi ( don't know if he was know with the name Shwabadi used here though ). Also Imma pick Shwabadi's players on the account that I love and play Fate Grand Order.
    Honestly was not gonna watch cause of the length and didn't know if I would enjoy ( despite loving Isekai dnd until dropping it cause of that Man ) but I'm glad I let it play cause I love it now, the length I think should at minimum stay at the 1 hour mark. Here's to hoping I enjoy the next videos as well !
