![]() ![]() The dagger is rarely used, honestly, as is the morning star, but having two weapons with dual damage types is a great way to feel prepared. ![]() Also, as was mentioned, it has two damage types, a range increment, 10% crit threat, is light, cheap, always handy, and can be used to cut your way out of something that swallows you.īut when it makes sense (ex: when I play strength/melee oriented characters) I tend to pick up a morningstar in addition to the dagger. I always make sure to have a dagger, if only to quell my inner need for a semblance of realism: no one goes into the wilderness without a survival knife, unless they're insane. įun times o and thats why you allow a rogue to lead the group. We later ransomed the girl back to her father for 30k gold and used that money to bribe a blue dragon to aid in the defense of village on the brink of destruction by barbarians. allowing us (most of us ) to scale down the towers wall while holding unto a butt naked noblewoman, sadly the barbarian died protecting us while we were shimmying to safety, the gm rewarded the barbarians player though with a exp bonus on his next character and i was rewarded for out of the box thinking. This gave my group enough time to construct a giant rope out of smaller ropes, bedsheets, clothing, the bards whip and a tablecloth. I tend to be a utilitarian i remember one time i stopped a group of guards for 6 rounds by using a light hammer to plant some pitons into the wall (one on each side of the door ) and 4 on the ground (in front of said door), i then placed a mop i grabbed a minute ago while we were fleeing through the servants quarters on the pitons that were nailed unto the wall serving as a makeshift bar. Blade Runner deserves credit, celebration and remembrance for it is simply an excellent film.I tend to use a Long spear (its a spiked walkingstick used for springing traps, scaling terrain and anything else i can perceive sometimes the hardest question can have the simplest answer use a long stick), A Dagger, A Bow with a quiver of 16 arrows (3 are rope cutting), a bandolier of darts, o and i always always carry a hammer. The score by Vangelis is strangely gripping when combined with the striking cinematography of the film. In any other film, this would have felt out-of-place but here it is simply perfect. Since it is all about technology, it fits then that Blade Runner features a ridiculous amount of product placement, especially from Atari. Whoever thought of this combination is a genius. In spite of a rich glaze of science fiction and futurism coating this adventure, there are distinct film noir elements present primarily in the bluish haze that the film is seen through and its gritty urban atmosphere. The things Deckard encounters on his detective journey raise many philosophical questions like: Who is really a replicant? Are replicants really bad? If replicants are bad, when why did we go to such lengths with our technology to create them? Are replicants really humans? Is Deckard a hero? This truly is a film that demands subsequent discussion and its ambiguous ending leave a haunting and eerie feeling. Set in 2019 Los Angeles, Blade Runner zooms in on the eerily-lit, urban streets of the city and follows Richard Deckard superbly played by Harrison Ford who brings an exquisite moral ambiguity to his character a special policeman who tracks down and terminates artificially-created humans called replicants, who have escaped from an Off-World colony and made their way to earth and need to be stopped. It is timeless beauty with huge doses of emotion. ![]() I love it not only for the initial feeling it gives, but because of its perseverance none of the visuals, themes or technology feel dated but as deep, gripping and current as ever. Ridley Scott's Blade Runner is a brilliantly crafted science fiction film that not only touches upon, but bravely plunges into deep philosophical questions, making it simply ten times more important than any film of its genre. Dark, deep, uncertain, unsettling imagine the most beautiful nightmare you've ever had this is Blade Runner (1982).
