  • Keyleth decides to tempt fate at the edge of a 1000 ft cliff. It goes about as well as you would expect.
    IASIP theme and Critical Role are not mine. Sorry I wasn't able to get as good as quality audio as normal. Video encompasses everything from the jump to Vex bringing her back up to the top of the cliff.

      @@mayube9292 first of all, having a cap for fall damage is ridiculous. ~70 damage is barely enough to knock a level 10 character unconscious, let alone provide a threat to a level 17. terminal velocity is terminal velocity and jumping off a 1000 ft cliff should have heavier consequences than 20d6. secondly, matt made the important things very clear; the cliff is extremely high, it's not a sheer face, and whether or not keyleth was in the clear was iffy, which is accurate to what she wouldve gathered while falling. she shouldve just turned into a bird but honestly who cares, it was a funny accident that was quickly resolved, no need to make it out like matts a bad dm

    For those interested:

    Human terminal velocity of horizontal positioning (belly to earth) is 200km/h
    Stable head down position increases velocity to 250-300 km/h.
    Falling person at low altitude will reach terminal velocity after roughly 12 seconds of free fall. 450m (1,500 feet)
    World record cliff dive was 192 ft on 19/08/2015 by Laso Schaller. Reached a speed of 123km/h before impact.
    125ft/second - 1000 feet
    Keyleth had roughly 8 seconds of fall time to regret her decision and was still accelerating upon impact.

      Well, there might be a loophole, depending on how high up, exactly, she changed into a goldfish. (Goldfish has a much smaller silhouette and mass, so terminal velocity would be much slower for goldfish than it is for people) However, I find it entirely in keeping with what we know of Keyleth for her to turn into a goldfish close enough to the ground for her now tiny, single-hit-point body to smack into the jagged rocks at the base of the cliff at human-scale terminal velocity. (Or, as you posit, to smack into the water's surface at that speed to similar effect)

      the smaller the animal, the weaker the gravitational pull.
      You can let an ant fall from any hight, its terminal velocity isnt high enough for it to ever kill it.
      So
      *turns into a goldfish, slowing down the fall drastically*
      *falls in the water with a very small amount of surface tension*
      *can swim because fish*
      the only problem was, not looking down to see if there was rock :D
      better animals:
      -flyers (if high enough)
      -super small animals (like ants)
      and the best thing:
      -flying super small animals (bee and so on)
      so yea... :D thats my two cents about that

    • @ThatGamerDude9000
      @ThatGamerDude9000 Před 6 lety +1

      LetsPlayCrazy Wouldn't it have been smarter to turn into something big, like a whale? To my knowledge whales aren't that aerodynamic, so maybe she would have slowed down a little. Also the pressure of hitting rock or bellyflopping would have been much smaller, given a whale's large surface area. Sure she would have more momentum, but wouldn't that just mean whatever media she fell into, she would displace more upon her impact? I also realize that bigger whales weigh more, and the normal force of whatever she hit, would be her force as a human scaled up by the ratio of a whale's mass to a half elf's. But let's say a was a true swan dive, and all the force of crashing down was placed on the tips of her middle fingers (probably a square inch, if not smaller), then compare it to to the area of a whale's underside. Her mass may have gone up 1000 times, but the surface area that hit the crag/water would have been magnitudes larger. Even if she hit head first as a human, the pressure of a whale would still be smaller. I'm going to guesstimate these proportions, but I assume a human head is a quarter foot by 1/2 foot ellipse, and a humpback whale is an ellipse with major axis 50 ft and a minor axis of 10 ft (maybe smaller). Then a weight of a humpback whale at most would be 40 tons or 80 thousand pounds, and 1 Keyleth is probably 120 pounds. Yeah, these aren't the best approximations, but they are the best I can think of off the top of my head.

    • @LetsPlayCrazy
      @LetsPlayCrazy Před 6 lety +4

      Yea sure lets increase the volume AND the weight xD
      What you are saying is wrong because whales also have more density then for example an ant.
      And because it is bigger, the whale would have been impaled on those ricks, doing even more damage :D
      So a whale would actually have been worse then a goldfish xD

    • @ThatGamerDude9000
      @ThatGamerDude9000 Před 6 lety +1

      LetsPlayCrazy sure, if they were sharp rocks, she would be impaled, but the rockface below wasn't described very well. And density of the person doesn't have anything to do with this situation, to my knowledge. Density of the air would affect terminal velocity, but not density of the person. Sure, since an ant is smaller, air to it is more viscous (like how sperm in water is like swimming in peanut butter), slowing them down considerably, and an ant's anatomy will change how the force is distributed, but if it is hitting ground at the terminal velocity of a human, not an ant's terminal velocity, it would not be safe. But if we are talking about the very edge of the rock, "where the rock meets the surf," the extended length of a whale would put most of her body in the water. Not exactly a graceful landing, but safer than headfirst into rocks. If she got impaled anywhere, it would essentially be her foot (the tail of the whale), a very non-lethal place to be impaled. A goldfish going the terminal velocity of a human (she changed last second, meaning very little deceleration time) would still splatter on the rocks. A whale going terminal velocity of a human would be a little safer.

    That's 100 d6's he had to roll... with a maximum potential damage output of 600 damage.
    If he had rolled any higher... there might not have been a corpse to even BE recovered!
    Matt's dice roll was 363 points of damage. Keyleth's Max HP was 127 at this point.
    That (127 hp) x 2 = 254. Anything above that equals instant death, all three death saves instantly failed, and the body can usually be recovered.
    However... 127 x 3 = 381... Matt rolled 363. If he had rolled just a little higher, her corpse would be irreparably damaged to the point that ressurection would be nearly impossible beyond certain very high level spells like Wish and a few others.
    If he had rolled anywhere from 382 to 600, Keyleth's corpse would be more and more just pulverized meat and bone shards. If he had gotten anything over 500... she'd be chum, literal fishfood.
    This is why I'm not a fan of the range system in this game. It warps a players sense of distance so that they seem to think 1,000 feet is only 100 feet. Mental Distance Distortion of the imagination is a key part of why many players PK and TPK... they get too close and don't realize it until there is a big dang'um dragon directly in their faces. DM's are partly to blame for this, and the use of battle mats and dungeon tiles is part of the rest of it. :-/

    • @DeathBringerBecky

      I disagree. She was in wild shape when she hit the surf. At least at my table, her fish body would go splat, propmting the shapechanging magic to revert her form. But her actual body wouldn't be disfigured. She'd take the damage of course and would be dead because of it but not turned to mush as that body did not take the actual impact. I don't see written anywhere in the rules something happening at 3×Max HP damage, so this is up to the table's DM. You can rule it however you want at your table, of course, as that's kind of the point of D&D. I don't think it's a bad idea in general, in fact I like it. But because she was in wild shape at the time of impact I have a disagree here specifically.
