It's astonishing how much they changed them and yet it looks better that way.

Still laughing about Renji being GARcher.

>>136370870
I really like it. It's really relaxing.


I don't like the fact that they rushed the beginning so much. Or rather, mixed it together.
Especially the getting out of the tower-scene.
That irritated me so much that I took a look at the LN i-it's not like I was doing it because I liked it or anything.
Glad the getting out of the tower wasn't that fucked up in the source material. Might drop the LN though, not too sure about that yet.
Most of it so far seems to be deifying Manato.


Do they change classes later on? They seem to drop an awful lot of hints that they don't actually fit their classes.
Boob-mage fucking up her spell, Tank being too agressive and clumsy, Hunter not being good at archery.

MC as Thief seems alright, so does Curly as Dread-Knight and Manato as Priest. But the rest?
>>
>>136370591
That scene was pretty fucked up. I expected them to kill the goblin and the death to be 100% meaningless besides the whole "We finally did it" moment. Seeing the goblin scream because he wanted to live and seeing the MC shake after they killed him felt pretty fucking real.
>>
Is the archer girl really a girl outside the game?
I need to know if it's OK to fap to her.
It was hinted that the boob mage is a fat girl IRL, but we got nothing on the asscher

We're never shown goblins being the aggressors except for self defense.

Turns out that without the cover of videogame HP and death animations, trying to murder a physically capable sapient being is pretty hard.
>>
>>136370879
You're absolutely right there
>>
>>136373507
Yeah, that scene was bit to realistic for my tastes. I wonder if goblins are the only enemy in the world and they couldn't just go and kill some other animal monsters.

Those guys are also bit fucked up in the head never considering they are about to kill some sapient being and not having any kinds of doubts.
>>
>>136373494
They havent said it yet, because ebin adaption but theres actually been a lich king - the Deathless King - who united the non-human tribes to the Undying Empire and then invaded the human lands, forcing the humans to retreat beyond the mountains.

The Deathless King died 100 years ago and the humans fought the empire back and then recovered lands beyond the mountains.

The goblins, orcs and kobolds which live near Altana have all been part of the Undying Empire are still at war with the humans.

The goblins they are killing are social poorfag rejects from the goblin society, though.

So are they gonna mug kobolds next?
>>
>>136374018
Not before one of them dies to Goblins.
>>
>>136373064
They really messed this up.
This scene actually happens later and its not about gob feelings but actually about Haru wondering why his team is so weak that they still have problems with goblins and he realizes there that its not just about weak or strong but more about what they are trying to kill actually also has a will to live while they just want some cheap loot for food and this difference of seriousness is whats making it difficult.
>>
>>136374018
Later, for now they're going to mug more goblins, then some richer goblins. Once they've successfully mugged enough goblins to rouse the goblins to militarize their homes for protection, then they will go mug Kobolds to escape the increased security.

Grimgar

>>136374332
What she just used was a level 1 Magic Missile, the only spell in Grimgar that all mages can use because it has no elemental affinity.

At her current mastery it has force equivalent to a solid punch from a human.

It's literally the worst spell available.
>>
>>136374157
Ass Ranger is still useless.
Her hit rate with the bow is still too low and here kukri and throwing knife focus make her neigher a good ranged fighter nor an off-tank like Haru.

You already fucked up. You don't make fire, thats super hard and requires almost half a hour of effort in good conditions.
You maintain fire.
And somebody would be tormented to stay 1-2 hours up longer at night, to fuel the ashes and cinders.

It's not that bad. Mainly they ate gruel and bread, bread being bought from a baker and gruel being essentially oatmeal. Plus a stewpot of whatever shit you could get, and that's basically like using a crock pot. Just set it over the fire and toss stuff in.

The skills are the mechanics. Like Ranta has the [Leap] skill or something which is a backwards jump. He then uses it as an ass attack later backwards jumping towards a kobold and ass attacking him.

I like that the fighting was realistic. It felt like a bunch of ordinary/inexperienced people trying to kill someone struggling, as they should.

This series at least has the atmosphere down for another stuck-in-an-MMO show. No special snowflakes helps as well. The balanced amount of males and females with no harem elements means we can have normal character relationships.

No it was some kind of bird, I built some makeshift bird traps (my grandfather taught me how to make them) because hunting with firearms or even bows is illegal where I live.

Apparently here rabbits and squirrels are considered residents and have legal protection. I cornered a rabbit in my garden when I went out to harvest some greens, so I had a knife in my hand. I was really considering pouncing on the fucker, but it looked pathetic so I let it go. Now I think it would have gone like gobs butcher scene.

:: Goblin ::

Goblins are small creatures that many consider to be little more than a nuisance. Standing just over 3 feet and weighing less than 50 pounds, these creatures are seldom intimidating on their own but can be cunningly lethal in larger numbers. Their skin tone ranges from yellow to deep red, and they prefer to wear colors that blend into their natural surroundings of dark caverns. Often bullied by the larger races, goblins have learned to exploit their advantages, usually in the form of sheer numbers and ingenuity.

Goblin Ability Adjustments: +2 Dex, -2 Str, -2 Cha
Favored Class (Rogue): A multiclass goblin's rogue class does not count when determining whether he suffers an XP penalty for multiclassing.

Special Abilities:

- Small Stature:
- +1 size bonus to attack rolls.
- +1 size bonus to AC.
- +4 size bonus to Hide checks.
- Darkvision: Goblins are able to see in the dark.
- Skill Affinity (Move Silently): +2 racial bonus to Move Silently checks.
- Goblinoid: Goblins count as Goblinoids for the purpose of spells.

Also completely wrong, polearms are cheap and easy as fuck to use, why do you think they gave them to peaseant conscripts?

Goblins have absolutely no way to break a line of people with halberds, if they had all stuck together they could have fucking steamrolled all the goblins they saw.

Except, you know, the whole village they live in.

I'm not saying they go full Oda Nobunaga and try and unite the land with hundreds of thousands of troops, I'm just saying that there isn't any reason for them to split into smaller parties when there is plenty of money to go around if you have the ability to kill every goblin, kobold, or orc you lay eyes on with the bare minimum of effort.
>>
>>136377260
>But there is literally no reason to be in a small group.
They're rookies, if they were in a large group they'd only be able to fight against other large groups and they'd get destroyed.

>The staple of infantry combat for hundreds of years is a "gimmick"
In a small group, yes. The polearm fighting they'd have to do is hooking people with the hook and then having someone else stab, that's nigh impossible in small fights with no training.

>why do you think they gave them to peaseant conscripts?
Are you really comparing hundreds of peasants to a group of 5 people? A line of 5 people with halberds would be ridiculously easy to beat.

Do you have any idea how hard it is to fire an arrow at such a small area without using modern day bows, especially if the goblin is moving around? Even people with guns can't do that reliablely and now you expect a person with barely a month of training with traditional bows to do it on her first shot?

They'd see or hear you and get more goblins, they have a civilization in this world and they're a lot stronger than some random peasants with pointy sticks.

>That is why you have archers and mages.
The goblins have those too, now you have to have armour for all your line infantry or they'll get destroyed by a handful of ranged goblins.

They have all of those actually.

Getting an arrow anywhere in your body is basically a game over since it gimps you so hard. Unless you're armored which would mean the arrow only barely wounds you puncturing though.

>>136377749
Anon. The group barely even knows each other's skills. They don't spar. They don't practice. They don't run competition against each other. They literally have 5 different allies to practice against and you're telling me they have none?

No.

>>136377750
No it fucking isn't. Traditional bows have shit draw strength, especially since she's probably using the cheap novice stuff. Not to mention the goblin has survived multiple stab wounds and his head being caved in. A shallow arrow penetration into his torso isn't even going to slow him down.
>>
>>136377836
So you think practising against people who don't know what they're doing will help them against goblins who've been fighting for their entire lives?
>>
>>136377633
>Goblins don't have the equipment, the organization, or the training.
They actually do. Goblins in Grimgal have their own society and weapons (swords, spears, axes, crossbows) and some even have full plate armor. Also, goblins control the stronger (but much dumber) hobgoblins.

Tell me that highly trained front line infantry wielding a zweihaender or similar weapon describes the goblins we have seen so far.

Protip: it doesn't

I haven't read the novels, but so far I haven't seen evidence of the intelligence and intense discipline required for them to repel even a rudimentarily organized attack.

>>136377908
>There is also no reason for a big group
Safety? They're stressing the "we're fighting for our lives!" bullshit constantly, why you would ever enter an engagement that you weren't basically guaranteed to win is beyond me.

If we took all these useless scrubs and gave them basic shit to do like wield a pike and paired them with the group of people who actually know what they're doing, everything would go significantly better for everyone.

You can't defend this shit. You can't miss from bow or magic in life and death situation. Kids are not retarded like you think.

>>136377959
Their best option right now is killing lone goblins, if they do that they gain experience on how to fight goblins, experience on where their weak spots are (organs, arteries, etc.) and cash for food, if they train with each other they're wasting time and energy.
>>
>>136377952
It's also the cheapest shit they are give out to recruits. That shit is not going to be 360 no scoping anything nor is it going to penetrate its thick skin very deep. Because, surprise surprise, the ranger is still just a teenage girl who only had a week's worth of training and no other military training, she already has shit for strength in addition to her utter lack of experience.

>>136377278
Well, there are elements taken from a roleplaying game. I suppose that the author wrote for readers that are familiar with such games.

* Skills, I mean, [SKILL]s: It's okay to describe special skills like lock picking or spells in such a way, but normally you don't say that you know the skill of [HIT], but basic combat training or knife training.

* I'm okay with the classes as titles for members of a specific guild, even if they are lifted from a game.
But they gave the newcomer too much freedom. Usually they would have been trained in the mercenary unit itself say in spear combat or in archery and assigned to existing groups.

You are moving the goalposts.
I agree that it's unrealistic to have a weak girl use a bow, but that has nothing to do with a bow's destructive power. If we accept that she uses a real bow, then so long as she manages to draw the sinew back and if she hits the target, the target IS going to feel it.
If it's a fantasy bow (that can be drawn even by little girls) it's a moot point because ranged combat is always gimped in fantasy unless you have an overleveled super-ranger.

Because the goblins shown in the anime are mostly outcasts that were thrown out of the society for one reason or another.
>Safety? They're stressing the "we're fighting for our lives!" bullshit constantly, why you would ever enter an engagement that you weren't basically guaranteed to win is beyond me.
Because nobody really cares if they die or not. It's a reserve army and they get enough recruits that it doesn't matter if a few scrubs that can't do shit without others wiping their asses die. They haven't proven their usefulness and have no value, so nobody is going to waste people on helping them hunt goblins when goblin hunting isn't actually necessary for anything than training or gathering of certain (not particularly valuable) resources.

Except it does. The more strength you have, the more pull you can get, the more powerful and straighter the arrow will be when fired. If you want that OHKO heart piercing shot, then you will need a fuckhuge powerful draw and an ungodly aim, especially with that type of bow.

>>136378465
Wrong. Patently wrong. And fruitless because they very clearly don't know the basics.

>>136378522
Crossbows literally require less strength than a bow of the same power.
>>
>>136378493
That and the fact that they are easier to aim, easier to make ammunition for, easier to manufacture (compared to a proper bow) , and just in general better at everything except rate of fire and range.
>>
>>136378469
And that's the keyword here. If. And even then, how much can she draw back? And the follow up question, how much will over-exerting that pull is going to affect her aiming?

But they do? The difference is that the basics don't actually mean much when you can't use them in real combat. It's why just because you've spent months practicing martial arts doesn't necessarily mean it'll do you any good in a a street fight, where all rules are off and you have no idea when to use what moves because you don't have actual experience.

>>136378637
Wait, I'm confused. What exactly are we arguing about here? I'm saying it's unrealistic for someone like her to be able to pierce the goblin's heart with her lack of strength and skill and having shitty equipment. I lost track of what you're arguing against.

The basics mean nothing when you've learned them in static conditions, you'll be lost when you're in an actual fight. Try using Aikido in an actual fight, you'll get demolished.

You wanna know how I can tell you know absolutely nothing about the topic and learned the bullshit you spout from anime/videogames/movies?

>>136378671
Not nearly as much. If you can't wind up a crossbow, you'll never get laid at all.

>>136378693
You do know that the whole problem was them being able to overcome their hesitation to kill a living breathing being, right?

Protip: Crossbow "strength" is a meme. Crossbows were invented so that tween boys should shoot an 80 pound draw. They are literally loaded using the strongest muscles in your body and with full body symmetry.

Well it's a good fucking thing that all 6 party members learned a different way of fighting. That's literally 6 times the training to work with.

>>136378693
They don't have the time for that, you dolt. They only received personal training for one week and have enough money to survive for two weeks. Sparring will do them no good when they have only days to learn where to find goblins, how to find them, get used to the idea of killing and start earning enough money to live in relative comfort for a few more days. They already spend morning to evening hunting and get exhausted from running around forests and mountains all day long. There is no time to train properly.

>>136378706
The problem with Manato is that he's a huge fucking softie and won't criticize his party members even if he has to. They can't receive any more training or tutoring without paying a lot of money to the guilds and hardly anyone experience gives enough of a shit about them to teach them anything.

Dont worry, MC will develop into a proper leader.
>>
>>136378808
Yes. It is.

Heavy Crossbows were invented to pierce heavy plate armor present in the late middle ages. Their design allowed a single person to load an enormous amount of power behind a single bolt, which was something a regular bow simply COULDN'T DO. Why was that? Because a regular high power bow was too fucking heavy for a regular person to use.

Heavy crossbows are only viable because it multiplied the user's strength far more efficiently than regular bows. The Crossbow being a weapon "for strong people" is a meme.
>>
>>136378606
How much do you think a fucking wind-up crossbow costs?
And if you're so sure that crossbows are one-shot kills, then you should suggest that Assgirl work together with the warrior(?) who has enough strengths to reload a normal crossbow.
>>
>>136378768
He probably meant the strength to pull the draw string back. The more advanced one uses a crank while traditional ones uses a hook on your belt and requires people to latch it onto the part that pulls the string back by standing up. It's actually pretty time consuming and commonly requires a shield in front to protect the crossbow user from enemy attack since he's a stationary target during this time.

Please read up on things before arguing about them. Spears amazing formation weapons but also amazing weapons in any case, even a newbie with a spear can give a trained swordsman trouble, spears are greatly superior to most weapons in most cases (especially when plate armour is not involved), hence why they were the most used weapon throughout history.

The one drawback is that they aren't as handy to carry as a mace, axe, or sword, hence the popularity of swords as sidearms in town for protection. None of this is an issue if you are going out with a group with the knowledge that you will encounter enemies.

Theres actually asian crossbows and european crossbows.

The asian variant was made rather early with the purpose of having untrained people engaging in ranged combat.
The european variant was made in the late medievals to pierce plate.

Not to mention goblins are just extremely short humans as far as anatomy is concerned, think of fighting an angry manlet.

An angry manlet who by itself had to survive in the wilds by stabbing wild animals to death, probably rob humans, and defend themselves from teams of disposable newbie humans trying to kill it.

A spear is a polearm you literal reatard.

Kill yourself.
>>
>>136378937
Will redhead develop into not being retarded?
>>
>>136379074
Footwork training needs to be on a variety of terrain to be useful, also edge alignment in a spar?

The rest takes way too long to train.
>>
>>136379074
All that aside from muscle training actually requires someone who knows his shit to train them. By itself it'd just be a waste of time and they'd probably hurt each other while trying to spar.
>>
>>136379074
Goblins aren't just short humans, these things have been living out in the wild since their births. They are more active and constantly exposed to the environment, so they are stronger, faster, have thicker skins and can use the terrain to their advantage. They're more like small feral humans, which are incredibly deadly.
>>
Is /his/ leaking
>>
>>136379112
Its because he starts being observativ of things, including the enemies and his team mates, noticing where they are weak, how their enemies react to what behavior, etc.

Its his idea to team finance the warrior a full plate armor and then they steamroll goblins.
>>
>>136379144
No he will become more retarded but MC will learn more to deal with him after
redhead gets basically half a volume dedicated to him.

Also MC hates him more and more with every volume.

Spears are usually not bunched together with polearms because spears were so common they got called spears all the time, but fine lets keep the two separate.

>>even a newbie with a spear can give a trained swordsman trouble
>holy fuck this is so wrong

No it isn't you fucking faggot, unless you got another spear or a polearm fighting against someone who has held a spear for a day is going to be bothersome as fuck. If the guy has trained with a spear, even for just a week, it's going to be hell. You can not easily get past the reach, especially with an enemy that can keep moving away from you, and once you do get in close he's still got a knife.

t. someone who does HEMA 3 times a week and has seen relatively new spear users hold off 2 swordsmen on their own (and win too)

I don't see how this makes training any different though, it's a tougher opponent but your training will be the same.

>>136379145
>Footwork training needs to be on a variety of terrain to be useful

Not really, obviously it helps if its on a variety of terrain but its otherwise something that is picked up pretty quickly once you got the basics down.

>also edge alignment in a spar?

Yes, learning to feel the grip in your hand is important. Not to mention you can do cutting exercises against inanimate objects which will help. There are also people/madmen that train with sharp blades for the very reason that you can feel the edge much better (this is probably not a good idea for people who aren't experienced, and even less a good idea in a medieval fantasy world where antibiotics are unheard of), of course they don't go all out as they have to be extremely careful not to wound the sparring partner.
>>
>>136379326
Fighting a rookie spear user as a trained swordsman is easy as fuck, especially if you have a shield, as soon as the spear user gets the basics down you're fucked though.
>>
>>136375673
Semantics.
>>
>>136379405
>TEST MAKING], [REPORTING] and [LESSON PLANNING]
Still lacking the silvers to buy those.
>>
>>136379397
I haven't read the novels, but apparently the MC gets a crush on a girl who hasn't appeared yet. I don't think they are a couple yet.

Jesus Christ, that sounds horrifying, heck training with anything but wood.
>>
>>136379467
Can't you just download them from some Chinese server?
>>
>>136379418
Fair enough maybe 1 day is a bit too little, but it's really easy for a spearman to train enough to be a serious pain in the ass for a seasoned swordsman. Not to mention in the past without antibiotics it was a real bitch if you got cut, even if the cut itself was not serious, especially if the asshole dipped the tip of the weapon in his shit (which makes closing in even worse as you really don't want to get any sort of hit on you).
>>
>>136379500
Yeah, as soon as they get their footwork down they're a nightmare.
>>
>>136379500
>dipped the tip of the weapon in his shit
Did anyone literallly do that?
>>
>>136379500
When did they learn about the magic wound healing properties of strong rum?
>>
>>136379418
If there's a shield involved the spear is no longer inherently superior.
>>
>>136379500
Lack of antibiotics doesnt seem like that much of a deal in a world with healing magic to be honest.
>>
>>136379500
>especially if the asshole dipped the tip of the weapon in his shit

fuck
>>
>>136379598
No, shit.
>>
>>136379591
Depends if low-level healing magic can heal illnesses or not.
High level healing magic probably can.
But first, you'll have to get access to it.
>>
>>136379568
Yeah, it was cheaper than actually using poison as coating, hell, even dirt might do the trick since bacteria will infect the injury anyways, but shit did a lot of damage.
>>
>>136379568
>>136379598

I should probably have added that dipping your melee weapon blades in shit was very uncommon, mostly because the steel will get ruined by it very fast (it wasn't uncommon at all with arrowheads though, which you usually lose after use, and a deeply embedded arrowhead dipped in shit is bad news). That said spears are cheap and you can just replace the spearhead, so it's not too bad on those. You wouldn't want to do it on a sword for sure (swords can get damaged by just touching them with your fingers and then not cleaning them properly).
>>
>>136379133
Every spear is a polearm but not every polearm is a spear.
>>
>>136379500
>Not to mention in the past without antibiotics it was a real bitch if you got cut, even if the cut itself was not serious
Not to mention doctors having stupid misconceptions like believing that a wound leaking pus was a good thing and so they left some wounds open to drain the pus.
>>
>>136379653
Pretty sure priests (especially in the guild) would sell this kind of healing for a few coppers/silvers (dependingly) just like you would have to buy antibiotica/pay the doctor for a checkup, etc.
>>
>>136378889
Shitposting, worthless priestboy didn't even notice her crush.

Or that water opened your skin's pores so no one would take a bath because open pores meant for them that all the diseases would enter your body.
>>
>>136379767
It was their explanation for why people tended to get sick after taking a bath. Which was because of course, sick people sharing bath water with healthy people isn't a good idea for the healthy people. But many maladies and ills don't manifest that quickly at the beginning, so sick people don't know that they're sick, and take common baths with healthy people, making them sick too.
>>
>>136371565
yes, and?
>>
>>136379309
What a shame
>>
>>136379417
No, it is not the same. People are usually trained against fighting other rational creatures. Goblins are mostly feral creatures that knows how to use man-made weaponry. It's like training someone in martial arts to fight against a rabid chimpanzee. I don't care how many ways you know how to disarm a man, that chimpanzee is still going to rip your arms off and beat you to death with it

Blame the anime. It's not actually anywhere near that huge in the novels or manga. It's just a normal two-hander there. He also kinda needs it when fighting monsters with plate armor or with more-resilient-than-metal skin/fur later on.

So far he has killed a tree and a goblin's helmet.
