First Nat 20 in history
This is a Facebook meme
Funny meme but I think people( and DnD) fail to realize how dangerous a sling is. Just a regular one can cave in metal, let alone human bone.
I mean dnd also puts literal daggers at 1d4. Combat systems in general fall apart if you consider reality too much. Like I killed a bunch of monsters so now I hit better makes sense. I killed a bunch of monsters so now I have more health doesn’t.
I rationalize it as “You took some blows so now you have a better pain tolerance”.
See, I interpret that as being: you now know what kills people, so you are better at avoiding it.
Most weapons can kill in one hit IRL if used right. In D&D, 1d4 is both the damage of a sling shot bullet and the HP of a commoner.
History? Isn’t David vs Goliath a biblical story?
Naw…
I’m pretty sure, as far as we’re aware, that the meteor that caused the K–Pg Extinction Event was the first Nat. 20. (Taking out Goliath has nothing on taking out most of life on Earth, including the dinosaurs…)
Is Abel a joke to you?
