Druid: You wanna try it Fighter: Yeah let’s see what happens Both: grab item together

One side becomes staff, one side becomes spear. Its rather unwieldy.

Oh, so it is a swinger party.

You mean the rogue with an epic, OP bag of holding that steals things automatically.

Years ago I kept having this argument with the party fighter. I was playing a rogue. He had some sort of magical lens with a bonus to find traps. I was like, "let me use that so I can find traps better. You can't even find traps with a DC above 20, rules as written. That's a rogue class feature. With the lens I'd be getting like 27 if I take 10." He was like "no. It's mine. I found it." Like, my guy. We're all in danger if we don't find the traps. You don't see me holding onto armor I can't use.

Did you let him become chief trap finder? That's a quick way to get the item back.

TBF, that's pretty much what every rouge I know would say

They merge into a grotesque tree with a moving face that makes a sound when ever a breeze occurs "kill me... kill me..."

Hah, I should have. I do remember letting him search first once and being petty about it. "Oh, you got a 12? A whole *twelve*? Woowwwww. I'm going to *take 10* and get a, let's see- **twenty-two**. Would be a *27* if only I had some sort of magical equipment boost" (For those of you who don't remember, "take 10" was a 3e rule where you can opt to treat the roll as if you'd rolled a 10, so long as you're in immediate danger. https://www.d20srd.org/srd/skills/usingSkills.htm )

Which got even more OP in 5e, at least for the rogue.

Throw it between each other between attacks; fighter makes his attacks, then tosses it to the druid to make his attacks, and then he tosses it back, and so on and so forth

> so long as you’re in immediate danger. *not in immediate danger

Stuff like this is why games usually end by the 6th session.

Which bit of the spear, though? Cause a spear is just a staff with a pointy bit on the top, so if you've got the pointy bit, then it's just a spear. If not, you've got a staff.

That doesn't seem like the same thing at all. Can you elaborate?

Berserker rage is a helluva drug

They give it to the Rogue because they're both convinced it's cursed

Proper min/max-ers will set aside their ego, and coordinate swapping the item as necessary. So thankful I’ve got a group with zero ego issues.

Tip or stern of either.
