How to Deal With: Fighter Fappers.

Post by infected slut princess »

Anyone who is not retarded understands the inherent limitations of the Fighter Class. Anyone does not understand this is a Fighter Fapper.

Fighter Fappers want their character to be the "hero" who gets the best artifact sword, strikes the killing blow on the final boss, and shags all the princesses.

Essentially, Fighter Fappers want to be BETTER THAN EVERYONE ELSE. Because they want to have no superpowers and overcome challenges that other characters need superpowers to overcome, this makes them better. Instead of special powers, they want to rely on their "ingenuity" and "expert RPG gamer" skills to do things they cannot inherently do with their character. If you are a Fighter Fapper, it is an insult to suggest you need anything other than badassery to defeat the God of Demons.

How does the DM deal with this?

a) Give the Fighter Fapper what he wants
b) Kick the Fighter Fapper out of the game
c) Punch the Fighter Fapper until he makes a new character
d) Deliberately kill the Fighter Fapper's character in the campaign

The correct answer is C D.

Now to some people, this might seem harsh. But it is actually a very fair solution. Why? Well, most Fighter Fappers are "old-school gamers," who expect a DM to provide unfair, arbitrary situations in which their characters must suffer. And they are totally cool with the idea of characters dying in horrible ways. So if the DM sets up a situation in which the only outcome is Fighter Death, then justice will be achieved.

However, it is important that these Death Situations be set up in such a way that the Fighter Fapper THINKS some kind of ingenuity or RPG gamer skill can save him. But regardless of the Fighter Fapper's perceptions, the outcome of Fighter Death must be inescapable.

If the Fighter Fapper makes another Fighter so he can continue fapping, repeat the process as needed.
Oh, then you are an idiot. Because infected slut princess has never posted anything worth reading at any time.

e) use your words, like an adult.

One casting every six seconds at CL9 gives you a bit more than 40 liters per second, which is comparable to the flow rates of some small, but serious, rocket engines. Six items running at full blast through a well-engineered engine will put you, and something like 50 tons of cargo, into space. Alternatively, if you thrust sideways, you will briefly be a fireball screaming across the sky at mach 14 before you melt from atmospheric friction.

f) Harass the party with invisible imp snipers. Then, at level 10, Give Sauron a Death Star. Don't give the players X-Wings.

How to deal with ISP:
a)ignore
b)ignore
c)ignore
d)all of the above
The answer is D.
ISP: the story of a troll who just doesn't have it anymore. Whined about lack of conflict of the den. Tried to outsource trolling, but that fell apart. Tries another fighter thread, which is also falling apart. Even Lord Mistborn, the weaselly henchman of the Den's trolls, isn't on your side anymore. Pathetic.

That's a bit harsh, dude. No DM worth their salt will actually let you defeat the God of Demons. It's in the 5e DMG, if the players are succeeding at something cool and making you slightly sad, you're just supposed to randomly change everything so they don't. Most people on enworld seem to agree, so it must be in there somewhere.

Make the welfare artifact a big toy hammer that causes hearts to fly out instead of blood, and change people's alignment to Good instead of killing them when it scores the final blow. Sort of like how games like Ninja Gaiden Black discourage you from playing on Easy while still providing the option.

In this moment, I am Ur-phoric. Not because of any phony god’s blessing. But because, I am enlightened by my int score.

I'd almost forgotten about this!

The thread that tells you how to turn a random commoner village into a deathtrap that punches well above its weight level.
