I've noticed the only mannerism Marisha and Matt don't share is that little wiggle Matt does after ending a train of thought, like when a NPC is waiting for an answer or when he just described a rule Edit: and also the "Open up your arms in disbelief" accompanied by a confused face, from Marisha
they are using CGI sleeves. its all special effects. we all know that if you put sleeves on Marisha some kind of Elder god is spawned and nobody wants that.
This is one of those topics that are put into an appendix for a reason. No one is expected to memorize all conditions. Players ought to try and memorize the ones relevant to what they'll usually inflict on creatures and the DM should have the appendix easily available on for example their DM screen. Seriously, if you're an aspiring DM and worried about not being able to memorize the rules such as all the conditions, don't even worry about it. You're not supposed to. Also, sometimes you want to impose conditions on yourself so it's important to maybe memorize those those too if you're a player who often does so. You might want to press on without a long rest or travel an extra hour even if it causes exhaustion. You also might want to simply lay down prone for cover because you know you know the enemy will only try to hit you with ranged attacks.
You are right, many people will never remember all the conditions, but some people do. Everyone else is wise to keep a notecard nearby so that you always know just how bad off you might be.
Always pick up a little flour. You can get it in any town or inn, throw it at invisible things or on the ground to make them easier to detect, or use it to amp a fire spell. Though, if your GM disagrees with that last one, avoid providing a real life demonstration, lest you blow up the entire room.

I think it's important to note that you don't have to be at 0 hit points to go unconcious. In DnD you are considered unconcious when you are asleep, for example. So, no bleeding, but beware of sneaky assassins.
@@timscarrott8919 Actually with Laura you: get disadvantage against her blinding radiance, her charming effects, the deafening harps that play when you even hear her name, immediately suffer 2 points of exhaustion every time she puts dice in jail, when she's mad and gives that angry look you become frightened until she rolls above 18, disadvantage against grappled if within 30 feet of Travis, disadvantage against her incapacitating talent, paralyzing splendor, petrifying presence, if suffering from any of the mentioned conditions immediately you become prone and are restrained of any coherent thoughts. And finally advantage on saving throws against stunned unless she's stunning (roll d100 and she's not stunning with a 1), in which case you immediately become stunned without a saving throw. There's also invisibility but nobody has ever seen it.
You know ..... the way Sam sings the intro...it doesn’t so much sound like he’s asking If we don’t know how to play ..more like he’s making a sneaky plea? a cry for help saying he still doesn’t know how to play
I'm a really experienced DM but I really appreciate these videos and the new roundtable episodes that have been coming out. They are the sort of content I wanna see!
Worth noting for the more acrobatically inclined characters out there, the standard rules as per PHB for escaping a grapple is not a straight up strength check; it's the grappled target's *choice* of either a Strength (Athletics) (which may be better for them than straight strength, if they're proficient), OR Dexterity (Acrobatics). In most cases this is contested by the Strength (Athetics) of the grappler to hold onto them, however, many monsters that have a grapple effect list a specific save DC in their block instead.
Same goes for petrified, paralyzed and unconscious (ends spell concentration automatically) - and to a lesser extend charmed (as you can't harm the target, any concentration spells harming your enemy break) as well as being grappled by a mage slayer (which is a feat, but that's getting into the dirty details)
@@scooby45247 not sure if the ones he uses are bought... originally he just used different collored plastic rings (the ones you can get from bottles) now he uses colored rings with the conditions initials/names on it but i would assume that those are just 3D printed?
Has anyone been that guy yet and pointed out that the prone part had a slight mistake? PHB states that "An attack roll has advantage if the attacker is within 5 feet of the creature." It does not differentiate between melee and ranged, in theory you can attack with ranged weapons at short range, while you would cancel the adv out due to disadvantage on melee range ranged attacks; TLDR: technically not as black and white as implied. Also not all melee attacks happen within 5 feet either, polearms exist. I only bring this up because it literally happened in my game on Tuesday and we had to look it up to be sure. I know this is more meant for low level players and DMs, but still sort of incorrect if they take that as PBH truth. Love you guys, love the content, keep it coming. Sorry I might be that guy.
That's correct, the writer made more than just the "torpedo" error. Prone's actual effects are as follows: * The Prone creature has disadvantage on all attack rolls. * Movement is reduced to Crawling: 1/2 speed normally, 1/3 in difficult terrain, but standing up (costing half your movement speed) ends the condition anyway. * Attacks against the Prone creature from within 5 feet have advantage. Attacks against the Prone creature from farther than 5 feet have disadvantage. This means that there is no inherent disadvantage for ranged weapons, so using your bow against a Prone creature from 5 feet away gives you advantage on the attack roll, while trying to hit with a ten-foot pole, proverbial or not, imposes Disadvantage.
@@quaaludes9145 True, they can only ignore exhaustion from not sleeping. They still suffer form environmentaly and magicly induced fatigue, including the post-battlerage fatigue of a warforged barbarian (which most players choose to flavor as "overheating").
@@bonogiamboni4830 (Quote) You don't need to eat, drink or breathe. (/Quote) So, you are right. While it doesn't specifically say they don't suffer from exhaustion (which it DOES for sleeping), it's pretty clear that you can't suffer from malnourishment if you don't need food... (by the way: food and drink exhaustion is special anyhow, because it can't be removed by sleep, magic or potion; it MUST be removed by eating or drinking - and it gets worse over time, meaning the second day without water gets you TWO levels [for a total of 3 levels], but we're getting into nitpicking only survival style games need to dig into)
The editing on this one is PHENOMENAL and really kicked this up to a 13/10. i find conditions truly the hardest part of dnd to follow (as both a player and a DM) so this was a very good, easy to follow with understandable explanations. far easier to follow than the LITERAL TABLE OF CONDITIONS in phb and dm screen/guide. Marisha's montage style title for each condition gave a SUPER quick, inferable meaning for each condition that the word themselves don't necessarily give. Something I noticed on this video (perhaps because of Marisha walking off screen?) but the simplicity of the white backdrop really makes the rest of the video stand out on the youtube layout - the white on white/seamless effect is great for immersion, and makes it all feel like sketches on a whiteboard (which I guess was probably the intended effect, similar to the frame in Critical Recap...)
loved this specially the special effect for each condition i started dnd 5e like a year ago but i spent most of my free time looking up the rules (jeah i do it mostly for lore and idea's but i turned into our groups wikipedia) but i still love these videos and they still give me tips or idea's also sam with the dad joke
Just gonna point out that grapple can be escaped with acrobatics instead or athletics instead of contested STR, meaning if you're a slippery quick one, you don't need brute strength. Loved the video, loved the weird style/vibe. Keep up the good work!!!
8:12. Thecnically, when you're unconscious, any hit from an attacker that are within 5 ft. auto-crits regardless of whether or not the attack was a melee or ranged attack.
5:05 If you read the book text for *prone* condition, it does not mention *melee* or *ranged* attacks, just the distance! > "An attack roll against the creature has advantage if the attacker is within 5 feet of the creature. Otherwise, the attack roll has disadvantage" Correct me if I'm wrong, and overlooked some other ruling; But this is how I run these special scenarios: A *melee* attack on prone creatures will have disadvantage if the attacker decides to use the "reach" of a melee weapon / ability, attacking with disadvantage if attacked from 10ft+. A *ranged* attack on a prone creature within 5ft is rolled as *normal* (advantage from prone condition, but disadvantage on ranged because of 'ranged attacks in close combat rule'), unless the enemy 5ft within you is incapacitated.
6:11 Important note missed under Grappled, you can defend against a grapple attempt with a Dexterity based Acrobatics check, and of course wriggle free from it with said Acrobatics check. E.g. your noodle armed rogue is not entirely screwed if they get grappled.
So at 12:01, she does call the show "Hamburger Helper" instead of "Handbooker Helper" right? and no one caught it on staff? intentional? flub?? fatigue setting in? lol. hmm... great video, love Marsha, Laird, and Tarvis and the whole Crucial Roll crew... especially the DM, that Mark Mercy. Hehe. but joking aside, love these shorts.. the Caleb callback in the Charmed segment was priceless..
what I really like about these is it makes watching the show more understandable. I can use context clues when they get/give conditions and most are logically but it’s nice knowing what they are actually are.
Slightly important distinction: ranged attacks vs prone target. It's a distance based thing, not a weapon based thing. If you are 5ft away from a prone opponent, you attack with advantage. Longsword, crossbow, whatever. However, making a ranged attack while adjacent to a hostile creature imposes disadvantage. So unless they are incapacitated, unconscious or asleep, the disadvantage and advantage would cancel each other out and you would make a straight roll. Recently, I had some players attacking a sleeping opponent, and I learned this.
To add to this, the 5 ft rule also means that attacking a prone creature with a reach melee weapon from 10 feet away is also at disadvantage (and doesn't get you a crit against paralysed/unconscious creatures either)
Oh no the firbolg druid is dying!! D8 Gotta say the edits and doodles on this episodes are so on point. Kudos to the artist and the editors! (Also Marisha you are awesome for all these 12 minutes of my life and please go get some rest)
My first ever character was petrified when my party and I were in the big bad final battle. I was the cleric and the only healer. I turned to stone fairly quickly.
Very nice video! There is one rule mistake I noticed. Any attack against a prone enemy has advantage within 5ft. So if you attacked with a crossbow within 5ft of a prone enemy, you would have advantage from the prone effect. You would also have disadvantage for performing a ranged attack next to a hostile creature. So overall it would be a straight roll. Also, all attacks made greater than 5ft have disadvantage. So if you attacked with a melee weapon that has reach from 10ft away, you would have disadvantage
To be fair..... Being an undead minion is rather tiresome. You never sleep, its always kill those intruders or dont let those pesky adventurers get out of my tomb alive!.... Even in death does ones duty continue.
I play a Tiefling Druid/Warlock multiclass (she died and was resurrected by a nature spirit demon-type entity so she felt like she had to work with said entity after that and became a Warlock to them) and actually played her as such from the very start (I took her from an old campaign to a new one with a new group) and even though I've played her for a while, this video was still very dang helpful! Currently binging the series and I love it ♡♡♡
The explaination was really helpful to me thanks so much. I was curious if Dragon-born were ever explained because I've had this character idea for a while now but i'm not exactly sure how to play one.
Being petrified saved me from being dusted by a disintegrate beam from a beholder :D also the removing of one exhaustion from raising dead that was from an errata so makes reviving easier ... because before that you couldn't do that you had to use higher magic.
Bloody hell! In my last game my dm gave me TWO levels of exhaustion NONE of this was explained! If I'd known I wouldn't have gone beyond level 1! In that game I was cut down when one of the spellcasters firebolted my character in the back and they had to use a potion to get my character back on her feet. My DM is probably reading this right now!
@@leavemealone247 My good fortune is that my DM clearly wasn't aware of the rules for exhaustion! But I do now! I expect too much from these games is my problem but its nice to get that off my chest and get the advice I need to get over this. Thank you by the way!
Oh yes my party ran into 2 Roppers, we were two levels higher then them but somehow these things managed to not only grapple every single one of us even our deathbot but also managed to kick our butts so much that said deathbot went down for the first time and was surviving all the stuff we threw at them for way longer then they should have.

Slightly important distinction: ranged attacks vs prone target. It's a distance based thing, not a weapon based thing. If you are 5ft away from a prone opponent, you attack with advantage. Longsword, crossbow, whatever. However, making a ranged attack while adjacent to a hostile creature imposes disadvantage. So unless they are incapacitated, unconscious or asleep, the disadvantage and advantage would cancel each other out and you would make a straight roll.
Recently, I had some players attacking a sleeping opponent, and I learned this.
To add to this, the 5 ft rule also means that attacking a prone creature with a reach melee weapon from 10 feet away is also at disadvantage (and doesn't get you a crit against paralysed/unconscious creatures either)
Oh no the firbolg druid is dying!! D8
Gotta say the edits and doodles on this episodes are so on point. Kudos to the artist and the editors! (Also Marisha you are awesome for all these 12 minutes of my life and please go get some rest)
Oh my !!! Never have I ever wanted there to be memes born out of something as much as this ! almost every caption can be turned into something
"Because you have magic rock brain now"
I feel called out...
11:59 - And this time, she totally said "hamburger."
My first ever character was petrified when my party and I were in the big bad final battle.
I was the cleric and the only healer. I turned to stone fairly quickly.
All episodes of HBH should've been hosted by Marisha, honestly.
Very nice video! There is one rule mistake I noticed. Any attack against a prone enemy has advantage within 5ft. So if you attacked with a crossbow within 5ft of a prone enemy, you would have advantage from the prone effect. You would also have disadvantage for performing a ranged attack next to a hostile creature. So overall it would be a straight roll. Also, all attacks made greater than 5ft have disadvantage. So if you attacked with a melee weapon that has reach from 10ft away, you would have disadvantage
7:53 : Stuff of nightmares.
To be fair..... Being an undead minion is rather tiresome. You never sleep, its always kill those intruders or dont let those pesky adventurers get out of my tomb alive!.... Even in death does ones duty continue.

When homebrewing, this is my favorite flavor review! Thank you Handbooker Helper
"Your party members are battered and exhausted of resources"
Looks at Fjord
This one was... actually helpful. Great job guys,Liked.
You know Marisha is truly brain pooped after she finally says hamburger helper. Poor lass had to cover a lot ;-;
I play a Tiefling Druid/Warlock multiclass (she died and was resurrected by a nature spirit demon-type entity so she felt like she had to work with said entity after that and became a Warlock to them) and actually played her as such from the very start (I took her from an old campaign to a new one with a new group) and even though I've played her for a while, this video was still very dang helpful! Currently binging the series and I love it ♡♡♡
Very informative and very funny. Great job Marisha!
Marry me! ...Oh wait ...Mercer....both of you marry me!!

@@000Krim What is this suddenly? Lol.
MOOD
Oboro teaching us about status effects...love it so much
The explaination was really helpful to me thanks so much. I was curious if Dragon-born were ever explained because I've had this character idea for a while now but i'm not exactly sure how to play one.
Being petrified saved me from being dusted by a disintegrate beam from a beholder :D
also the removing of one exhaustion from raising dead that was from an errata so makes reviving easier ... because before that you couldn't do that you had to use higher magic.
Another positive to being petrified: You don't age when you're stone. :D
2:11 Also harder to charm and immune to the popular Bard cantrip Vicious Mockery.
That opening sounded really epic and that is a + in my BOOK. ;)
I just love it how they use @ItsDaniCarr as the RESTRAINED/HUG Machine.
This one was most excellent. ❤️
Dang, Marisha really, really brought it on this one! Her "charmed" face had the ultimate puppy dog eyes!
"...these 15 conditions."
(CRASH)
"TEN! 10 conditions! "
What movie is that from?
_Mel brooks' history of the world?_
Should have used one of Travis’ “Nope” pictures during the “frightened” condition bit... 😃
Animations are so good in this one!
torpedo inducing venom sounds OP AF, especially when fighting underwater..
she said "that excuses today episode of hamburger helper"
Amazing video as always!
4:31 when you are supposed to be asleep and you here someone coming upstairs.
Bloody hell!
In my last game my dm gave me TWO levels of exhaustion NONE of this was explained!
If I'd known I wouldn't have gone beyond level 1!
In that game I was cut down when one of the spellcasters firebolted my character in the back and they had to use a potion to get my character back on her feet.
My DM is probably reading this right now!
@@leavemealone247 My good fortune is that my DM clearly wasn't aware of the rules for exhaustion!
But I do now!
I expect too much from these games is my problem but its nice to get that off my chest and get the advice I need to get over this.
Thank you by the way!
LOVE IT! Well done!
@6:37, The Goblin in the background is SO confused :)
LOL!
I really needed this one
Matt really needs this one lol.
Oh yes my party ran into 2 Roppers, we were two levels higher then them but somehow these things managed to not only grapple every single one of us even our deathbot but also managed to kick our butts so much that said deathbot went down for the first time and was surviving all the stuff we threw at them for way longer then they should have. We started to call one of them the God of Roppers because of how lucky and how much damage it did and was
