Greg becoming a god, then being called down with the guardian of faith to sit around for 8 hours doing nothing would be perfect
Greg. God of patience and garlic
Every 8h to guard sheep and that would explain why he cant get them himself and move from the spot
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂, i can see him standing there in (not so) quiet contemplation😂.
Umm spoiler .alert as yours is top comment
@@echidna0129 i always watch first and then read the chat, spoiler problem solved 😀
Rowan paying attention and taking notes is unnerving, like the 'end of the world is nigh; unnerving. 😁
Hell freezing over
Well he did multiclass with wizard... So that would just mean he's getting smarter in both character and in real life
It is the power ⛮ of his mustache like Samson's hair on the top of his head.
@@leonestelloThe Ice ❄ Age is returning some time ⌚ in the next 7,000 years.
Bob will become avatar, get killed. Cut to Honeywood, bob respawning without gear. "Fuck"
There are two options that i like for bob - number 1 is that he's a player character and everytime he "dies" in combat he just gets the "continue?" option instead of a load previous save - so none of the NPC's, not even Baradun have actually realized that he's a player character, because there's no weird continuity glitches of "haven't we already done this?"
option number 2 is that Bob is "the glitch...." - this entire section was deleted from the game before release and all that remains is the glitch....ua-cam.com/video/QlTHyIswDeA/v-deo.html
That would be so good, I wan't to see it.
Add that he has to win a debate with the grave diggers on philosophy to leave the graveyard.
I said it before and I'll say it again. Promote Sir Gareth Digby a Lord of Light!!!
he would be a lord of naiveness 😆
Ayo 🙌🏆
Lord of Trust
Gareth was an a hole without his special necklace. Not sure he would qualify as a great and benevolent god.
I see your Sir Gareth Digby and raise you a Djeoph.

@@jocosesonata yea.. thats kind alegendary bad for a name.. still legendary tho
I immediately thought of Frank after reading this
Actully creating an 11th ancient one seems like a very interesting idea. Just imagine GREG THE GARLIC GOD.
His domains would be garlic and unruly sheep.
All things garlic as it should be.
If only he could Tinker something that could make him a God of the Light. Oh wel, maybe next campaign😂
Adventurer: [Stumbles across burning bush]
Burning Bush: HELLO ADVENTURER! MY SHEEP HAVE RUN AMOK!
But he will have to pick new domain that isnt already taken by others. So maybe smething like new inventions. He would became ancient one of the Artificers :D
If Bob gives up his Warlock powers poor Wotsit will be stuck in the other place forever never to dance again.
They could use their wish to get him to manifest permanently in their plane of existence......totally worth it.......
He'll be so upset.
I'm never gonna dance again.
Demon feet have got no rhythm.
Though it's easy to pretend,
I know I'm not a foooooool.
Shoulda know better than to leave my 'Lock
And let him break the bond we're given.
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced for
Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimmm
- Wotsit, probably
@@jorgebarriosmurdivine intervention to get him to transform in to a creature of light instead. Invisibility, flight, and all.
Elevate Wotsit to godhood as the 11th Ancient one and give Bob Cleric levels 🤣
Damn that's a new type of metagaming.
Asking the possible enemy if they roll well. 😂
I think it’d be really funny if they have pop quizzes with Bodger, all of them ending with ‘Who rightfully owns this hammer?’
Bodger could become the Lord of Light whose domain is Knowledge (of all hammers).
You are not the God of Hammers! Oh wait, wrong franchise, carry on.
While we love BatD for their shenanigans, it's genuinely nice to see them actually think once in a while.
Greg: "You're the worst Baradun." Also Greg: "I don't want to use my diamond to revivify you Bob, but I will ABSOLUTELY use my divine intervention to remove your 11th level trait you earned." 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love the positive impact taking notes seems to have had on Rowan, he seems much more engaged and to be enjoying it more. Notes are great for remembering stuff but they're also excellent and making sure you understand everything so you can write it down clearly.
Well he did multiclass with wizard which would mean that his intelligence is going up.. and with it being Rowan coming from the dumb barbarian or the really oblivious manager Rowan.... Taking notes and making one smarter seems to have a literary and physical effect on Rowan
@@Deeldoh-buhtcheeks he did? I think his int is still negative 1.
@@sp00n now it's plus one now it was on next to latest episode
@@Deeldoh-buhtcheeks Where? I can't find it. And multiclassing must've happened with the last level up.
@sp00n can't exactly say for sure what the timestamp was on the video but it was more of him mentioning that his intelligence went up since multiclassing but he's had wizard multi-class four or five level UPS ago
Misfits: support each other and make friends
BatD: *friendly stabs*
"We ended up curing Jesus."
Took about three days
The sudden realisation after the first 6 minutes: Bob is basically Harry Potter
Yeah I was saying this before whenever they announced that the BBE g. Was creating warlocks and part of his power goes to them making him weaker I was like oh s*** he's just making horcruxes and Bob is Harry
I love episodes where they are just talking! Some planning, some roleplay, it's so fun!
"You can certainly try" XD Love that reference.
That phrase lives rent free in my head.
And yet, no one frantically looked for the problem. 😅
If they manage to beat the Storm Giant Warlock, then BOB's continued existence is literally the only thing holding the very fabric of the world together.
They hinted at Bob being the BBEG a long time ago. If Kelothak comes back and needs a "previous connection" to be his host, this will be the most epic (unintentional) foreshadowing.
What if...
After the dudes come back to Gerdawn and enact the plan to kill BOB, just when Greg is about to revive BOB, somehow Gareth dies roughly at the same time, but Greg only has one diamond to cast Revivify...
"F**k you BOB, we are bringing Gareth back instead."
Even BOB would agree on that! I mean it`s f*cking Gareth.......
A world without Gareth is not a world worth saving.
Oh, so this was filmed on May and released on January.
They're so ahead of schedule
I remember rob saying they record a session every 6 weeks for 6 hours. I know by now they have finished the campange so there's some math for yeah in how many we have left.
I remember their last game is around Nov or Dec. So the math count should be after this session, about 4 more if every 6 weeks.
Each episode is 30 minutes roughly. 6 hours will generate 12 episodes roughly.
So maybe 50+ episodes left. Still a year to go.
But I remember they mentioned story is enough to last till May 2025
I'm sad about Misfits story coming to an end though. I hoped they started another story which is also in this world, and ends together
@@jensennc94 I mean, the last episode of Misfits ended without a "next episode" bit, Arrow is dead AND yet they didn't kill Bonecaller, right? And there was a "to be continued" card at the end. It really confuses the hell out of me. I also hoped the Misfits campaign would be much longer, but once Rob said, like few episodes ago, that this is the last session, I was sure they're not going to resolve all of the arcs. I would really love to see the two campaigns merged, but I am not sure if it's possible with 8 players, unless Arrows stays dead and they actually kill B.O.B. or any of the other D*ckheads and create a party of six. However please keep B.O.B. in, Ben is my favourite member of the cast. (The clash between the approach of guys and girls would be epic though)
@@Lark1610 i think the to be continued was just a dramatic way to not reveal any sneak peek. Any sneak peek is a spoiler in that sense
@jensennc94 Yeah, makes sense. Still, it's the first time they did it, and still how manh episodes they have to take down Bonecaller? And yes, I still would like the two parties to join forces, though that would be a mayhem.
The thumbnail suggests that everything would go very well
Let's see. A screaming BOB and a monster?
Nah, that's just Thursdays.
Indeed
Going exactly as planned. 😎👍
Like all plans
And that Ben's rolls will finally be excellent
6:49 ☝️ This is actually really sad and makes you root for Kalothac to be redeemed. The storm Guy is so composed and Kind in his speech, you know he still holds a lot of Love for him... Team Kalothac Redemption👍
Yeah I'd much rather redeem him than lyathal
yeah i think this does make laethil more shitty than baradun actually. yes meteoring a town is a horrific crime. but then laethil banished someone into a dark realm which created an extinction level threat to the entire world so…
@@nurainiarsad7395 I feel like the difference between those two is: Baradun is reckless, endangering strangers continously. He knew the range of Meteor Rain. Bilandra Laethil hurt one person, and whilst the extinction event is a result of his actions, unless he *knew* that was going to happen, I wouldn't say that he's worse on that count. I'm assuming he thought Kelothac would die. Did he make a bigger blunder? For sure. But did he do it by choice?
I love the idea that Rob, for the whooole campaign, had a scenario in mind, in which one of the guys can become the 11th lord of light, and then they started traumatise NPCs, kill baby giants, blow enemies from inside out and he was like, "Naaaah, not gonna happen".
I love the discussion of divine intervention… but completely not thinking about using it to separate Bob from his warlock side 😂
Rob allowing Greg to divine intervention away Bob's reliable talent gives Greg the chanse to do the funniest thing ever. 😂😂 Fingers crossed.🤞🤞🤞
Holy hell this is probably the first time they (Baradun) actually role played by themselves. Amazing evolution in game and irl!
YES! They're actually having fun roleplaying
At the end of the campaign, the cast needs to RP a conversation between the players and the characters they played and talk about their experience in the game from both points of view 😂
If they summon him, and he leaves, he will try to kill Laethil while at 33% power. If they kill the 2 warlocks, he can just appear on the mortal plane at 100% power and immediately kill Laethil. The 1st option still sounds soooo much better. You can gather your allies to attack him and force him to fight you while at 33% or let him choose to not fight you at all by teleporting strait to Laethil when at 100%.
I bet there is a storm giant that could tell me the fate of the doll in Bodger’s arm.
I like the idea of creating an 11th ancient one. But if it will be one of the guys, we'll have 12 dark lords I'm afraid 😀
So Baradun won’t be a high sorcerer in the end of the campaign. Kelothac is a literal dark lord and the is no chance to redeem him. Laethil even with being redeemable probably will be arrested or banished for what he’s done, so the only one person who can be high sorcerer is master Padraic. Yes, he’s still obsessed with that mask, but he is better than all other candidates. Vote for Padraic! He’s the one!
Padraic gives us Hope.
Vote for BOB he's the future!
"You keep accidentally stabbing me!"
Bob: Where's my half wither health? --- Me making Rob sweat months ago with that same question: My time has come!
Not really fair to Bob that the “getting more powerful” is tied into just normal selecting warlock level ups when he was so specifically encouraged not to do that for many reasons, including Rob encouraging him to get reliable talent
Bodger being the most empathetic towards Baradun’s realisation showed real character growth all around!
Locket locket locket locket locket locket, that's all that was going through my head there. If only Baradun Mart was so easily repeatable.
"I'm afraid Bob has to die."
Bob: "So just another day in combat, yeah? Shall we fight that little fish over there? That should do it with my dice rolls!"
If anyone wonders the music from "Bodger's Hot Tips" is "Disco Diver" by "Lupus Nocte".🎶
I love how IMMEDIATELY on board everyone was with killing Bob 😂
Alan is my favorite. "Let's not jump to conclusions." And We'll put that in the back pocket." Are gold
Skycraft MUST be made into a real game! I can't wait to see the memorial for the town that was destroyed by Baradun, meeting Baelin, Greg, Bodger, walking through Gerdawn and seeing a rundown Baradun Mart, man it would be the best game of my life!
They should license the BG3 engine from Larian and basically make a custom Azerim campaign in it. How cool would that be right?
Oh my god I would be so happy
Greg not using his daily wish to accomplish the goal of getting rid of the dark lord is mind-boggling
Where is bobs half wither health.
Damn, I never thought of that 😅
Wotsit
Maybe it's Lako'Thec himself? (WARNING: Conspiracy theory!) Hill giant's the first tier of giant, so the first giant warlock that would have been created would have been a Hill Giant, therefore the first infusing of Kelothac's influence (and maybe the strongest) would have been the Hill Giant BOB absorbed his warlock powers from?
After all, Kelothac would have had to work his way up the Ordening. He'd have known the Hill Giant the longest, and would have a greater attachment to him.
In Bob's pants. He plays with it during Bob's special time.
Ben is such an amazing actor. Him getting stabbed had me rolling
Oh boy it was a lot of fun trying to imagine each of the cast as the God of Light :o
Baradun probably starts being even more narcissistic
Greg becomes Jerry Smith Prime
Ben becomes traumatised due to catastrophical alignment shift
Bodger becomes giga chad
Bodger would probably be the worst of them if suddenly promoted to light lord, yes even worse then Baradun
Omfg Rob's reaction to that "NO." Is so good xD
To kill Kelothac, they have to make him a mortal, i feel like bob is going to become his vessel and the other 3 are going to have to kill possessed Bob
11:35 Ben that is absurd. It is clearly January of 2025. I mean it’s obvious
If Baradun kills Laethil, that's not revenge? Tsk-tsk-tsk... Anything to provoke them to this murder. I am not amused.
Why do I have a feeling that Baradun's redemption arc will last right up until the point he becomes High Sorcerer again, only to be thrown away the first chance he gets to open a new Baradun-mart store? I bet he gives the other dickheads the finger as he does it too :D
Nah, I think that Baradun is becoming genuinely better. He's never really had friends before, isolated as the only truly aware character in the game. Being forced to go on this adventure with Greg, Bodger, and BOB has actually given him genuine personal connections for possibly the first time since he realised this world wasn't real. Making him realise that, even if others aren't real people, that he can still care about them and want them to do well for themselves. He obviously won't become a saint, but I suspect he'll be a much kinder person than at the start of the series with this newfound empathy.
He'll still take whatever opportunity possible to portal in front of Greg to raise the bird at him, but he might also stop 'round the tavern for a beer once in a while and just hang out as mates
Nah, I'm hoping that when he finally gets teleport. Baradun gives them the finger and: "F*ck you! I've never liked any of you"
Goes back to his temple. Kills laelthil becomes the high sorcerer again.
Happy ending 🙂
15:34 he was shiskaBOB'd eh...eh?!? I'll see myself out 🚶
Bodger could become the Lord of Light whose domain is Knowledge (of all hammers' ownership).
Genuinely think he’d be an even worse pick than Baradun
17:09 I was expecting Bob to say:
Okay everyone, time to unzip your pants!
Something tells me they end up redeeming Laethil so he could help defeating Lako'thek's avatar. Cause remember, they are good friends with Baradoun
Laethil and Baradun: Brothers 4 Lyfe
Love how they almost forgot that killing the last hag under the full moon makes Laethil a good guy (?) again.
With the gang's track record of literally never making a full functioning plan (let alone plan B) together, I got a bit worried about Bob for a hot minute there. XD
rob good job lining up the ladies and guys playthrough such good story telling loving all these dnd campaigns
Bob is Lako'thec's avatar, more power Bob gets by 'saving the giants' is going to have him killed in the end game.
Bob is the ender of the world, well until the other three kill him.
What about Crazy Bob from the Dead Frost? They never killed or cured him of Verderin.
Heck Yes!!!!!
I LOVE THURSDAYS
Love this new competent Bodger!
Them recording this in MAY is insane to me
6:22 Only 2 of them now? Wasn't there a random person in a bar or an arena when we went to the Bifrost that pretty much ignored his surroundings, and Bob released the dark mist from his eyes and he became fixed on Bob and chanted kill as though they were brethren? Also what happened to the duck that grew out of Bobs head? Shouldn't the duck be connected to the dark lord since it was in contact with Bob's blood?
Probably dead, through any number of situations, I'm sure
This would be the perfect ending.😅 The heroes kill the last avatar, thinking they habe defeated the darklord. Then the duck flies in and ends the world 😂
Oh yeah, Crazy Bob.
I reckon Crazy Bob was just a person driven mad by Kelothac after encountering him rather than a full blown warlock, since he didn’t seem to have any powers.
He died in a tragic car accident two weeks later, sorry
The duck was Christmas dinner.
Greg is a good candidate for godhood... He is already achieving sentience/enlightenment within the game. He has seen "the developer".
They have all come so far. I freaking love it!
Greg using divine intervention to make BOB dyspraxic and get rid of reliable talent would be hilarious
It's like in The Simpsons: "Over these next eight hours, you will be broken down to the level of infants, then rebuilt as functional members of society, then broken down again, then lunch, then, if there's time, rebuilt once more." GOOD LUCK BOB!
Let Gareth become an Ancient One!!😃
Yeah you have to be careful. You could wish him to the mortal plane but there's nothing keeping him here in the mortal plane so he could just teleport back the second he gets here. You need to make sure that he is unable to return to the plane that he came from
When making a wish, also read the fine print... The devil is on the details.
I asked last vid about Modular Realms terrain and received informative replies, thankyou. I've done heaps of research and it seems super cheap to make your own. Even with magnets! Flat pack, double sided, magnetic and modular terrain. Absolutely brilliant idea! Saw this great vid that make their own. Heaps of tutes online or just concentrate and focus until your muse finds you. Magnetic floors, walls, accessories like books and candles, fruit, breads and potions. So many fantastic cheap ideas out there.
Tails of the Misfits: Arrow dies...Oh no! ^sad noises^
Adventures in Azerim: Bob dies? meh.
Baradun is clearly possessed or under some sort of spell.
21:30 Murder Hobos Blaming that one Specific Murder Hobo
Ahh another night where I lose a half hour of sleep… worth it hahaha seriously though, thank you guys 😀
I bet Baradun is casting a spell.
They wish to bring Kelothac into the mortal plane. The remnants of Kelothac's mortal existence return to this plane. This allows Lakothac to no longer have a conscience, and killing the mortal existence does nothing to Lakothac. It's just a tormented, feral Kelothac.
Weird to have two family members mentioned... I have a son (and a far cousin) called Daan (6ft4) and an uncle called Gerrit. Also pretty relatable to have some dutch blokes running around under the waves as a great part of the Netherlands (Mostly Holland and Zeeland) is below sea level and have been fighting sea (storms) for centuries.
Vulhett gaat (in dutch: Vul het gat) litterally means fill the hole (yeah I know).
Im sad this is getting close to it's end. It's been a great time so far all these years.
I’m curious to see how Ben re-skins Bob if he gives up his Warlock levels. He’s, what? Arcane Trickster-11, Warlock-3? Is that right? He just got Reliable Talent at their last level-up. Arcane Trickster 12-15 (if it takes effect with their next level up) has some tasty features. 12 would be an ASI/Feat, 13 is Versatile Trickster (use Mage Hand to get Advantage on attacks, triggering Sneak Attack), 14 is Blindsense, and 15 is Slippery Mind (Proficiency in Wisdom saving throws).
Or does he put those levels into a different, impossible to predict, multiclass?
If he became a Paladin of Greg’s faith, Greg would suddenly LOVE that Bob never fails at anything. LOL.
First of all: Loving Baradun's character arc! Great job Adam!
Second of all: Big brain Alan thinking about that Wish! Absolutely love the out-of-the-box thinking and how the entire team actually stopped to think and strategise rather than "rolling for plot progression" to just continue barrelling unthinkingly ahead!
Really proud of the boys this episode! You could see the gears immediately begin turning in Rob's head as to how that would happen. There's also Rowan taking notes and being really invested in understanding and contributing to what's going on.
Divine Intervention "What is Baradun doing?"
Once this campaign is done we should get a series called "My name is Baradun"
Wait lol..
This episode was filmed in May 2024?? 9 long months ago?
If so, maybe episode time lengths should be increased to 45 min to 1hr instead of just 30 min.
Only because this content is the best on UA-cam!
I can't be the only one that thinks the episodes are too short =-).
But if they're increased in length, then the finale comes sooner! And I don't know what I'd do if I didn't have a new episode of BatD come out every Thursday night!
If they use their Wish to bring Kelothac to this plane, Zybilna would probably show up and kill Bob and the other warlock, thereby giving Kelothac the power to return to this plane.
Rob did say that because they genuinely got her favor she's not going to monkey's paw them like a hag would
@MrPsych77 I remember that, but I thought that was specifically for their individual wishes...there's only one thing to do here. I'll start the rewatch 😂
If they kill Laethil, it's not revenge? Oh really? Actually, it's revenge for him overthrowing Baradun. Be consistent please, and don't do everything to destroy someone's favorite character.
Gotta love the Dutch names and words in the giant culture
These camera angles are great 😎
Adam says: We still got a month to get back, assuming we are going to level up down here for 15 days.
But did he forgot about.... The boat they are "docking" out of nowhere? 😂
The Giants could probably do some magical bullshit and port them where they need to go.
"Vul het gaat" literally means "fill the hole". "plug the drain" is clearly Rob's way of avoiding lewd jokes.
Hey BOB we want to see WOTSIT at least one more time before the campaign ends!!!!
6 am here .love having these guys before work lol
Checking what the boys are wearing in the "next session" preview to check what choice they made.
Not only a wish but they also have the teleporter on the Elven islands that half bought all of Kelothac's tenticals through to the mortal plane before. They could go there and use the WHEEL OF Fortune! - Cthulu edition to see if they could entice him through.
Baradun, it's ok to be a high sorcerer but not THE High Sorcerer.
Yep, Bob's definitely a player, not a NPC
He's on the mother of all escort quests
@@m.c.2814 That explain the visions of hell he's having.
@@Roadvoice Baradun, Bodger and Greg: "Slow yourself, Adventurer!"
You need to add bodgers journal to the merch shop when the campaign has concluded. Like those books in Skyrim you used to be able to download 😂
hold up, is bob going to be lako'thecs medium to get into this plane of existance?
edit: yeah nevermind
those Rowan's Tips are gold
Is it so hard? "I wish the 4 of us get transported to Kelothac in the alternate domain for 2 weeks or until we kill Kelothac." Kelothac would be in a weakened state and easier to kill... in theory. This is also where he has been gathering power for the last 1000+ years.
I feel like if they go to the Darklands they run the risk of Dave or some other Dark Lord intervening
Is Rowan having back issues? I see him standing at the desk more and more now...
As someone who is *well* over 30: **Over 30 noises**
Genuinely hope he's okay, mind.
Tbf,they do sit a lot for these skits. It does a number on one's back, legs and bum. Standing up infrequently its actually a good idea to keep in good form
Bob got "John-Snowed!" :-D
