So I'm looking through the changes in the 2024 D&D players' handbook and this catches my eye.
I'm sorry go over that bit again?
Uh huh...
"I'm going to roll stealth to sneak in undetected."
"OK, how do you see that working?"
"I am very angry."
"... And that helps you how?"
"Ah, I see"
shaking dice "Oh do you now..."
I’ve heard that rage doesn’t always have to be the “primal screaming and slashing axes” type, it could just as easily be a cold, focused intent. Think John Wick or that one section of Titanfall 2, when you get the smart pistol (I’m sorry it’s late and I couldn’t think of anything better rn).
So like, maybe the barbarian isn’t (just) absurdly strong, but more just laser focused on where the strength is applied, coupled with skills and experience.
But tbh it’s funnier if it’s just “YOU DONT SEE GROG”
