Interesting how I managed to deeply offend some Monster Hunter fans when the video isn't even about MH in particular. :) The idea of fighting gigantic monsters with oversized swords and whatnot is a very common fantasy trope. Even though MH requires strategic fighting, plenty of other games go by the formula of "bigger is better, just hit 'em hard". And you've got to admit, charging a mountain of muscle, horns, scales, and claws with a melee weapon just doesn't seem as strategic as hammering them with giant ballista bolts from a distance.

Of course, the thing that proved best for fighting the dragons was the dragons themselves. So, I say in a fantasy setting with powerful monsters, find a way to tame some of them and use those for defending yourself.

Skallagrim: "...Some people are monsters..." Geralt Of Rivia: "Hmm... i like that guy"

The best way to kill a giant creature, say, a dragon is clearly some Peasants. And by some, I mean a couple hundred. Maybe 1000. The exact number doesn't matter, just bring as many as you can. Now, set them all up in a line, pointed directly at the thing you want dead, preferably far enough that you can get the peasants in place, with 12 seconds to spare. Give the peasant in the back a 10ft pole you brought from your local general goods store. Now, when combat starts, make all the peasants ready an action to pass the 10ft pole to the one in front of them, with the final peasant up front readying an action to throw at the Dragon, set to trigger on your say. When you think it's time, order the throw, and within the 6 seconds, which is the length of one round of combat, you will have accelerated a 10ft pole 10,000ft in 6 seconds, reaching a velocity of (assuming you brought 10,000 peasants) 1666 ft/s. That's a 7/8 lbs hitting a dragon at over twice the energy of an M107 .50 sniper. Need more power? Bring more peasants. Need more ammo? Just bring more 10ft poles. Welcome to the Peasant Railgun. This will work up to the point the DM hits you across the face with the Dungeon Master's Guide.

Furcas funnily enough I've done something like this, but with three stone giants and a boulder. We had a pretty nice DM and we were getting fucked up (five drops, four of which was between our tank and rogue and one was me as the ranger) our cleric dropped and we had some giants around that offered to help because this fuck off ancient blue dragon was invading their home and our tank (a goliath) got a damn good role in convincing them to fight with us. I used my turn to heal our cleric and give the giants the order. On their turn one picked up a boulder and they chained it in an arc before throwing it into the dragons side, a few successful athletics checks, a failed dex and strength check later and bam, 147 damage done and one ancient blue dragon knocked prone with 20~ HP left.

if the dragon is not mentally retarded to make the game playable, you're not beating it, not with the resources available to an unmoded skyrim character. all the dragon has to do is to circle out of range, come down to breathe fire at you, and then get back out of range. lore wise you might have a chance if you know a telvanni wizard who can cast a levitation spell on you that is strong enough for you to chase the dragon and lasts long enough to kill it before the effect wears off and you die from fall damage.

there's swords like falchions (the cleaver falchion, to name one). it's designed for deep cuts. all you have to do is to train; develop stronger muscles. the cuts will be deep.

Best melee weapon (if distance weapons like ballistas are not available) for fighting huge monsters without superpowers is: A very long pike. Do the braveheart vs. cavalry move. 1. Provoke the monster to charge at you 2. Put the back of the pike in the ground point towards the monster and wait for the charge 3. Let the monster spear itself and hope you will not get buried under it 4. Maybe: Profit. This could work because you don´t need to have superpowers and use the power of the monster against itself. To be honest, this will not work against HUGE monsters (like the monster in Cloverfield) and gives only minimal chances of survival against something of t-rex size, but it seems to be the only chance you got, when confronted with a monster, when you are alone and have no ranged weapons available.

Reminds me of Kabaneri of the Iron fortress (i think that is what it was called) main characters weapon is basically a railway rifle that shoots bullets (as in it shoots bullets, casing, primer, powder, and all. when it hits it's target, it fires a second time... sorta like an RPG, but not really.)

If I had the super strength, toughness and the ability to increase my mass at will in order to make it possible to effectively wield an oversized weapon. I'd probably just be one punch man instead of having a war hammer the size of an SUV.

When you mentioned climbing the monsters and stabbing their weak point it instantly reminded me of Shadows of the Colossus.

Videos like this help me understand why that enormous weapon my character is wielding just doesn’t make me feel as awesome as it should. Thanks.

If the heroes are so absurdly strong, they should just take make big fat heavy spears and throw them possibly from an elevated safe point to the beast, with their strength those big spears should basically be ballistic missiles, piercing the beast even side to side and pinning it to the ground. GG

You might be thinking about "dynamite fishing" that consist in throwing a stick of dynamite into the water, having it explode under and kill all the fishes around that would go floating on the surface. The fisher would just have to harvest what he needs from the surface. The problem is that you kill everything around you, not only what you need. Did I mention that it is internationally illegal? It uses the same characteristic of water I was talking about in my first comment, water is not compressible, so any explosion in a water medium (water for the fishers, the body for the monster) the shock-wave will loos less energy travelling that it does in the air, delivering a more violent blow to the fishes, or the organs that an air-blast.

Hey Skallagrim, im from Germany and the moast played game (like d&d in the US) is DSA (the black eye).

I love your background in this video

Some poisons are also pretty good against giant monsters if you can find a way to get the poison inside them. Because although they're big, some of our poisons are deadly enough that a few drops are enough to kill thousands of animals. And if you consider, say the Titans from the MonsterVerse, it doesn't matter if they have a hundred thousand times the mass of a normal animal when a few grams of Botulinum Toxin can kill millions of animals. Of course, that's only in more modern-day settings but even in medieval times there are still poisonous snakes and other critters that induce horrible death. That still leaves the issue of being able to administer the poisons but if the giant monster in question likes to eat woodland creatures then dosing a sheep with enough toxins to kill it a hundred times over and leaving it near where it lives could work. And to avoid problems of it for some reason being immune to one toxin you can avoid that by dosing it with several different toxins. Also, although I'm not an expert on history I'm fairly certain that they practiced some forms of this by covering arrows in fecal matter to give whatever they hit an infection, so it's not like it's something that was alien back then. And if the giant monster is a big enough threat to require an army then I'm sure they'd try things like that.

Skall, I really like this kind of video! What about making a video series about ideas on how to fight mythological creatures (giants, orks, animated skeletons, cockatrice, goblins, werewolf, vampire, barghest, spriggans, insectoids etc)? You could take inspirations from the witcher's bestiary, it includes a ton of monsters from many european cultures!

one the best depictions of a dragon hunt was in one of those RP forums I haunted a few years ago. in this RP thread a dragonhunt was basically the job of an army. the local baron had a small standing army, and to kill the dragon he mobilized several hundred crossbowmen with heavy arbelests and commisioned dozens of ballistas and readied a small cavalry unit. He would hide the siege machinery in the forests with precalculated paths of fire, spread the crossbowmen out in a large area and sent out cavalry wearing water drenched cloth to act as bait and lure the beast into the killing field. the point would be to cripple and bleed the beast as fast as possible so that it couldn't flyby strafe anymore, and once it crashes, pelt it with ballista bolts and arbalest fire till it dies, keeping out of range of its breath attack. no plate armor, no melee, high mobility troops and a prepared battlefield. basically, dragon hunting was the job of the ruling class, pricy, huge ordeals and the job of a small army. if the dragon had a cave lair it would be even easier. just point all those ballistas at the exit and then send in some convicts as bait. or just rig the exit to collapse.

Very happy that you touched on the subject of super strength and toughness being one and the same. It irks me so much when people and/or fictional universes treat them as if they are two different things. It seems kinda obvious that if someone is strong enough to lift a skyscraper but is somehow still just as durable as an ordinary human, they would pretty much kill themselves the moment they tried to take a breath. Fun video!

In city of heroes someone RP'd as someone who had super strength but not super toughes...their actual secondary power? Regeneration, basically their body was constantly mending itself in order to repair the damage done to it by being super strong, they were often crippled or confined to a wheelchair but when they got going... So it CAN work but you definitely need some sort of big secondary power to counteract it.

@buttsufancypantsu1644

7 жыл бұрын

I'd still argue that is impossible unless the regeneration power is incredibly quick, as trying to move any muscle while being so strong will simply tear the muscle off, as well as anything attached to it. In which case, they can't get crippled. If they do, it still doesn't make any sense to me.

@luketfer

I will point out you're bringing 'sense' into a super hero arguement, worlds with super science, sentient computer viruses and the like. Plus most heroes don't use their 'super strength' all the time, you're not constantly lifting weights are you (if you are, more power to you, day in day out, benching morning to night)? No, so essentially the 'Super Strength' would only kick in at moments of needed exhurtion, Superman can lead a normal life as Clark Kent, if not he'd be ripping doors off every time he went into work. It's the fact that the character in question CAN achieve superhuman feats of strength for short periods of time but it basically cripples them afterwards because of that fact. Hence the secondary power of Regeneration.

@buttsufancypantsu1644

7 жыл бұрын

Again: if a character exerts superhuman amount of force they will IMMEDIATELY cripple themselves unless they are tough enough to handle the stress. Their bones will shatter. Their muscles will fall apart. Even if somehow they can turn their superstrength on and off, the moment they turn it on without super toughness is the moment they, well, basically die. As for bringing sense into a super hero argument - I don't see why that's a problem? The way I see it, if a fictional universe relies on "magic did it" to explain each and every particular phenomenon it presents, then that fictional universe is ass. Unless, you know, it's a comedy or satire. If superman punches a tank into orbit and doesn't go flying backwards HIMSELF from the power of his punch, and the universe does not explain to me that superman is in fact superheavy, or that his flight power is always on, then my immersion will be broken, as ridiculous as the premise might have been prior to this. If you present a superstrong character and then tell me they are just as fragile as I am, and don't explain that their super strength is actually the result of, I don't know, some external force - like nanobots, or super magnetism or what not - but instead they actually have super strong MUSCLES - but are somehow still as durable as a human?? No, my friend, that is grade A bullshit, even in the world of super heroes.
