How many times has…?

Due to the recent release of our word count posts, we’ve had an influx of requests to track more. The posts we’ve made are the result of nearly a year’s worth of tracking; required the effort of over 100 volunteers; and months of work on our part to coordinate volunteers, collect stats, edit, format, check, and post. 

With the sheer volume of content now, we decided that, once we were done tracking previously made requests, we would no longer take requests that require a full-show rewatch. Further, we no longer take requests for tracking a particular phrase or word. We have amazing volunteers, and we want to make sure we can make the best use of their time and energy as possible.

How much can Grog bench press and/or lift?

Per 5e’s lifting and carrying rules (PHB 176), with the Titanstone Knuckles’ Enlarge activated, Grog can bench 2880 pounds = 24 Strength * 30 lift * 2 Large * 2 Goliath’s Powerful Build

When asked on Talks Machina about it (Ep02), Travis projected that Grog could bench two dairy cows. We learned that dairy cows usually weigh between 1200 and 2000 pounds each. So, an Enlarged Grog could theoretically bench two lightweight dairy cows.

Has Vax ever been able to use Dimension Door, through a feat or item? My friend is getting caught up and says he used it.

He has, by means of the Cape of the Mountebank (DMG 157). We first saw its once-per-day Dimension Door feature utilized in Episode 34 with the Briarwoods (1:19:29). Its final use was in Episode 46, in which Vax sacrificed it to help close the portal to the Plane of Fire in Pyrah (3:05:34). If you have questions about spell use, check out our Spells Cast chart!

Resurrection Rituals

Thanks to @advocatingavian for the art!

Given the events of episode 68, we’ve received a few asks about what Vox Machina can do. The most obvious choice is to get to Pike, which can happen in many ways at this point, so we’ll just discuss the various spell options they have at their disposal, and what we’ve seen from resurrections in the past. (Spoiler warnings for 68 under the cut.)

Scanlan’s Magnificent Mansion

/

Anonymous asked: Scanlan’s mansion provides some of the funniest role play from the cast, as well as some of the best moments in the series. Could you list in which episodes Scanlan has cast his glorious mansion?

Scanlan’s house is a very, very, very fine house! It’s got all the chicken you could ever want (and then more chicken beyond that), a spa that can handle an explosion of raw sodium, a kitchen ripe for destroying, a deranged family photo hanging above the fireplace…who could ask for anything more?

Times the mansion has been used: 10
