Adventure League misgivings

IIT: we will post annoying crap we have to deal with in D&D Adventure League and/or fucking Pathfinder Society.

I'll start
>cleric takes 88 lightning damage
>is at -67 hp
>still isn't dead because it isn't twice his max hp
does anybody actually fucking dies Adventure League
if your DMs can't kill anyone how can the players take the game seriously

in pathfinder society
>makes a rouge
>had a thief in mind
>rules state he can't steal from anyone or else his alignment switches to chaotic evil
>MFW

By "anyone" does it mean NPCs or other players?

NPCs completely wrecked my character who was suppose to target nobles when he got the chance

seriously how can i roleplay as i rouge when i can't even steal

Cont. rant

it was my first time playing pathfinder too and i had built my character primarily to steal

i only learned of the rule when we started completely undoing everything i built

>ITT: Reasons why 3.PF is a shitty system.
Seriously, y'all nigga have nobody to blame but yourself.

You're the Nigger, you can't even read the thread

I don't see how I'm wrong but whatever, stay triggered I guess.

this thread is about the Pathfinder Society and not the game

once again I reiterate my last statement you dumb piece of shit

How, exactly, are they mutually exclusive?

Don't you have to play the game to participate in Pathfinder society? Or is it like those threads where everyone just whiter-room theorycrafts some OP builds while stroking it to kitsune porn, in lieu of actually playing the game?

the rule i was complaining about is a society rule alone that they add to their games and is not in the book.

if i had played with a casual group i would not have encountered the said rule as no one in their right mind would make a game in which rouges cannot steal from NPCs

thus my complaint is with the Pathfinder Society who once again add their own set of rules to the games and not the game itself

Dumbass

You're still playing the game though, which is shitty by default.

It's not like I'm playing a different game just because I decide to add houserules to the game user, and overall, it's nothing to necessarily get butthurt over since it has been established that both the game and PFS were garbage for the last few years now.

So to reiterate, got nobody to blame but yourself bro, don't play with autists who set out to make a shitty game even more unplayable.

Guess you're right, guess I Shouldn't have played a game with autists who added their own rules to the game, came here to create a thread in which i could complain about said autists only to encounter a bigger autist who completely missed the point of the thread and complained about Pathfinder because that's what the cool kids are doing

>does anybody actually fucking dies Adventure League
no

>ITT; reason why the Oprah Winfrey Book Club sucks
>That's what you get for reading books faggots!
Okay.

Yet the biggest autist of all is the guy who plays with autists, who make autistic house rules, comes onto a board full of autists to complain, only to argue with a random user because he called a spade a spade.

If you burn yourself on a stove, do you blame the stove for burning you or yourself for touching something hot in the first place?
>ITT; reason why the Oprah Winfrey Book Club sucks
>That's what you get for reading shitty books faggots!
FTFY

I swear, 3aboos are the most defensive people on the board, I guess that's why you can only afford to play in PFS, rather than an actual group.

My god you are stupid

So I guess you'd be the guy who'd blame the stove for being hot, doesn't really surprise me.

>does anybody actually fucking dies Adventure League
Yes, they do. When 5E first started, a guy I played with in one game had a character (druid) die. Granted, it was due to his (awesomely) crazy antics, though we came close a few other times. Will try to remember to add spoilers to story (been a while, apologize if I screw it up). Will also censor for language.

>Dragon attacking tower in introductory module
>Druid decides he wants to run and jump on the dragon
>I (Cleric) cast (spell I've forgotten) to give him a bonus to his skill check as he runs by
>Druid just makes it onto the dragon.
>Dragon tries to buck Druid of, Druid manages to hold on
>Druid uses some.... vine-spell thing or something to attach himself to the dragon
>Manages to hold on, but dragon gets wise and starts trying to smash him against stuff.
>Try to heal him while he's still in range. Rest of party is cheering him on and making range attacks against the dragon.
>Dragon dislodges druid but druid uses a whip or something to catch onto dragon
>Druid eventually falls off, but is so far away that no one sees him fall
>Townspeople just saw this dude run, jump off a tower and onto a dragon, and ride off
>Wrote OOC limerick (to the tune of the songs they sang on Whose Line is it Anyway) after there was mention of Bard's picking it up in town

"A Dragon came to town one day, it was a scary sight,
'Til a man jumped on it and rode off in the night;
When he first came to town we thought he was a wussy,
But then he jumped the dragon, and, got some scaley pussy.

We found out afterwards we had already done enough damage to the dragon to run it off before the druid made the jump, according to the module, so there was no need to keep attacking.

>I swear, 3aboos are the most defensive people on the board,

I never actually said i liked the game or not but i guessed you missed it since your head is so far up ass you couldn't even read the thread

>Bring a human sorcerer to the table
>"Oh you can't use that character. We only use non-standard races here."
>Turns out they've got a whole handwritten journal filled with pages upon pages of custom races and fluff.
>I see some actually neat stuff as I skim through, but the rest is just garbage on the level of Chakats.
>Politley leave

>He's still posting

>Chakats
Why did you have to remind me.

Never played D&D but what is the big deal of having to write CE on your sheet, as opposed to anything else ?
Genuine question 1cara.

>doesn't know what the fuck a Chakat is
>does a quick Google Search
> Oh my god

Because the one I remember was just that bad. It was basically humanoid insectoids covered in carapace plates and shit. Extreme stat bonuses all around with no downsides, access to a racial telepathic network, positive relationships with literally everyone, and natural weapons that do greater than average damage. It's also apparently illegal to not like them for some reason but I can't remember the specifics.

in public play playing evil characters is not allowed and if the alignment shifts there your character immediatly becomes a NPC under the DM's control

that and the character wasn't evil just broke the law which is acceptable in CG or CN alignment

Haven't looked at the PFS rules in a while but there's probably some rule against playing an evil character in it.

that's more suicide than actually being killed off

So this is a public play policing thing more than an actual mechanic ?

>Become an NPC under the DM's control
I seriously hope no one does that, just make the guy reroll or ask him to cut the shit.

Yes
to be Honest D&D Adventure League is more tolerable than PFS

In DDAL the only annoyances i have had was chronicling every session your character plays in log sheets and absolute refusal to kill characters

PFS is complete garbage that you should stay away from
the rules they impose do not allow roleplaying at all and the campaigns are nothing but combat, the absolute worst part of any rpg, and the DMs are incredibly inedpt

>the rules they impose do not allow roleplaying at all and the campaigns are nothing but combat, the absolute worst part of any rpg, and the DMs are incredibly inedpt
At that point, why not just make a guild on WoW? At least then the combat is marginally more involved than rolling dice for 4 hours straight.

I wonder if /pfg/ lewd posters bring their kawaii-fox-girls to pfs

>any sort of organized play
Get away from my table you rancid normie swine.

1. Most, if not all, will be dungeon crawling sessions.
