Buffalow blow is a top tier pun.

The TPK DM, case 2, should run a game for a bunch of kids as punishment.

The monk’s forever DM is CRAZY but the wording of flurry of blows is that immediately after you attack, you can use your bonus action to make the unarmed strikes, which isn’t that different than moving between multiple strikes on one attack action

To anyone who thinks you can't enjoy gravity and levity simultaneously, all I have to say is "A Crown of Candy." Case in point.

I'm just guessing, but there may gave been a fundamental misunderstanding of what a "tank" is on the DM's part, in World of Warcraft and FF14, they're designed to draw aggro, be the target of ALL enemies and be able to survive, Dungeons and Dragons doesn't have these assumptions baked in, being turn based means the action economy can turn against them. There is no "taunt" in D&D besides Compelled Duel, and that doesn't actually force targets to choose you, it debuffs them if they pick someone else

it's times like Em saying that 20 abyssal chickens might be too strong for a 15th level character is what makes me scoff and them having power level discussions. SCOFF I say

What are you referring to in this episode? They've been doing this since early d&d court days, even across mixed bags and campaign short rests. Figured all the listeners had gotten used to it after 7 years lol The cases they picked for this episode are directly from the comments of the submission request post from a few days prior, so it definitely wasn't recorded the same day as the last d&d court

I don't enjoy breaking up the release of concurrently recorded DnD Courts. You guys treat them as one episode from a continuity of conversation POV, tightly referencing things that happened in the same recording session
