And the druid fails

It drives me nuts when bad DMs metagame and have the guards just decide to spend arrows on wild shape animals. I ended up just always playing rogues with that guy by the end because then I could just roll, and he never let us rest.

That was the same run that I somehow got 2 nat 20s in a manuever that required passing I think 3 different skill checks. Some kind of fairly large monster. Situation looking dire, one party member is gonna be dead dead if the only real healer dies, and the healer is almost dead. Every one is out of items, running low on everything. (Much of this was due to them barging in while I was still trying to scout as rat. They got bored. They ran straight into a trap that rat me saw, but could not tell them about, due to being a rat, still inside the dungeon.) So, after hastily finding a ssfe place to transmogrify, taking out as many henchmen type things as possible, as I move back toward the main room, I find my crew getting utterly wrecked by this thing, and despite being a glass cannon, I have the most health of any one in the party. I tell the DM that I want to jump on this 15ish foot tall monster's back, and garrote it to death. He says... uh... well... you can try... You need to pass an agility and dexterity check, and that thing has pretty decent armor via its skin. Nat 20 the agility check, basically Legolas over here, jump, twist flip, land, straddle. Don't nat 20 the dex check, but it is high enough to pass, so I get the garrote around the beast's neck. Nat 20 the damage roll. The DM couldn't believe it, check the stat sheet, says I decapitate it, after a second or two of getting my grip and basically sawing through the outer layers of its skin. So anyway, hybrid builds can be fun, lol.

No, the correct way tohide as thr bard is to play a pro-cop ballad wiyh your instrument case in front if you, or be humming it and ask which way to the ballroom before they notice you.

What new knowledge have YOU contributed to humanity?

And I was a bit pissy when my DM collapsed a cave on me in wolf form because I was using wild shape forms more than I was humanoid.

We get ambushed by some bad guy guards trying to rob us. As they’re stalking us in the bazaar we were shopping in, the initiative rolls begin out of nowhere. Roll a nat 20 for initiative, and end up going first. I cast grease and catch them all in it. 4/5 guards fail the save and fall prone. The 5th guard goes second and shoots an arrow at me, does a few damage. I react with hellish rebuke. It ends up engulfing all of the guards, the hay cart next to them, and half the bazaar into a raging grease fire inferno. I learned to be more aware of my surroundings after that day.
