Guild Wars 2 | Grimnir's Grudge
https://grimnir.me/category/guild-wars-2
Https:/ www.guildwars2.com/en/. Most of my weekend was spent in a hot little room in the middle of apple-pie-America-ville Ohio (that shit was twilight zone white-america creepy) playing Guild Wars and being ridiculously drunk or hung over, and occasionally both. Now I’ve got a lot of practice with keeping my wits about me when mercilessly hammering away at…. In Guild Wars 2. Wanna Have A Three Way? Three faction PvP. Who even likes that stuff anyway? These objectives are complicated and hard!

Summer Apathy | Grimnir's Grudge
https://grimnir.me/2015/08/08/summer-apathy
For some reason Newsblur. Needless to say after not touching the blogroll on the site for several months, there’s been quite a few that have moved on, changed topics to something less interesting, or just disappeared entirely. My need/desire for an online presence waxes and wanes less often than the moon changes, and Return of Reckoning. It just keeps getting shorter. Is there something amazing about Blogspot that I don’t understand? Would I like to work on my D&D stuff? Email and logging in gave me the ...

Warframe Review and Gameplay Video. I just realized that I never bothered to crosspost this video to the blog. I’ve been playing the crap out of this game for the past couple of weeks in my spare time. It’s got me hooked something fierce and right on the verge of spending money for some of the more elusive things. Here,…. FarCry 3 Gameplay Video. Gameplay Review with Grimnir.

Return of Reckoning | Grimnir's Grudge
https://grimnir.me/2015/06/19/return-of-reckoning
This project is going rather well. www.returnofreckoning.com. First and foremost, this is an ALPHA. Being in an Alpha state, there’s tons of things that don’t work, and even the initial setup/install is challenging for many. If you’re a hardcore WAR fan however, this is the best we have right now. It’s getting better all the time. This has been a lot of fun, despite the buggy nature of the game, and I’m very excited to get involved and help it grow.

A slightly more colorful banner. I'm playing with design a little bit today. That is all. Well this is cool. gChrome Themes. So if you're not familiar with Google Chrome, it's probably the fastest browser on the market. I use it 90% of the time with the standard IE taking up some of my work applications, and Firefox getting a smaller and smaller amount of use. A year ago, I was a Firefox junkie. I had extensions….

Removing THAC0 | Grimnir's Grudge
https://grimnir.me/2015/05/16/removing-thac0
And what exists in the 2e PHB and DMG is extensive. Is this for the better? I guess it’s necessary for playing a board game, but when I look at the things in the pfsrd, I don’t consider much of it as more than flavor text for a 2e game. But there it is, clearly spelled out, defined, with specific interactions and rules built right in. Click to share on Tumblr (Opens in new window). Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window).

Expanding the Spellcraft Proficiency | Grimnir's Grudge
https://grimnir.me/2015/02/06/expanding-the-spellcraft-proficiency
Expanding the Spellcraft Proficiency. This comes as something of a follow up to a recent post where newly forged Wizards and their ilk need some sort of old man. Teaching them all the right moves until they “get” it. The idea that you’re going to spend a LOT of time learning wizardly things really delves into the territory of Proficiencies as far as time and effort required to learn them. Spellcraft exists as-is, the vanilla 2e description is as follows. Versus my own definition. Grants access to learn s...

It’s been quite a while since I pulled out this particular feature.

Charisma: Reaction Adjustment | Grimnir's Grudge
https://grimnir.me/2015/05/20/charisma-reaction-adjustment
As part of my ongoing adventures and dealing with new players asking hard questions, one such stumbling point has come across that I’m sure many people have looked at quizzically. With no apparent mechanic to be found, large swaths of players summarily assign their worst score to the most classic dump stat in the game. Please consult your Players Handbook and point out where it describes how to use the Charisma based reaction adjustment. It’s not in the PHB. Hell, it’s not. This is not well explained in ...
