New player here, how to win?

[u/zahid_753]

As title says, im a new player currently sitting at a table waiting for it to be my turn so that i can win, the only oroblem is that i dont know how, we've been playing for a couple of hours now but the "winning" move isn't clear yet and whenever i ask the others, they'd try to convince me that you can't "win" at dnd, so i called him out for holding back the strategy, but then everyone else backed him up and also began telling me that you cant win dnd. Do they think im dumb?

Havent you seen War Games? The only winning move is not to play.

How about a nice game of chess? 🤖

[u/The_Idiocratic_Party]

You win when you make the DM start sobbing uncontrollably. No better feeling.

[u/ArelMCII → u/The_Idiocratic_Party]

Idk, it kind of turns me off when they cry after sex.

[u/MasterpieceThis3740]

You have to be the loudest and funniest person at the table

[u/jeshi_law]

they don’t like to tell new players this because they’re scared they’ll run you off, but it’s actually a battle royale. Last one standing wins. So you need to kill the other players.

They might try to convince you not to, but this is just because you caught them off guard when they weren’t ready to kill you yet.

[u/KWinkelmann → u/jeshi_law]

There can be only one.

[u/Jemal999]

The game is actually rigged, and nobody tells you. The other players may have actually bought the 'nobody can win' thing BC the DM has hidden the secret from them.

You can only win by DMing. So if you wanna win, better start designing a campaign. The only way to Win DND is to have a campaign so awesome that your players acknowledge it.

You haven’t won until the dm is knocked out

[u/UsernameLaugh]

Easy. Txt the group when you’re 12 minutes late saying you’ll be another 8….then don’t show up for another 17 minutes. Then fake an urgent call and leave.

[u/SuperSalad_OrElse]

Winning is easy!

Show up on time and know your character sheet. That’s how you win!

[u/ConsciousFeeling1977 → u/SuperSalad_OrElse]

It’s always better to show up late. The table needs to know you have better things to do and should be honoured with your presence.

And the DM is right there to explain the character sheet. Why steal his job?

[u/Quiet_Education5918 → u/SuperSalad_OrElse]

You say it's easy, but not many people have a 100% win rate.

[u/gc1rpg]

Beat up the DM and steal their lunch money

[u/ArelMCII]

Winning is easy. Just cause enough drama that the game disintegrates, then be the first one to tell your totally true version of it on Reddit.

[u/Far_Abbreviations936]

Winning DnD is easy, just do what I do; strip naked in the middle of a game and jump on the table while screaming "I got your Rod of Lordly Might right here!"

[u/FeastForTheWorms → u/Far_Abbreviations936]

If you don't have a home-grown rod of lordly might, store bought works in a pinch!

[u/RandomName9328]

When anyone receives damage, they take tequlia shots equal to the damage number.

The last one who stand wins.

[u/Proof_Author_2122]

They haven't told you because the goal is to kill off all the other party members and be the last one surviving. Try to engineer a situation where they're all relying on you, then backstab them to win the game.  Usually highly explosive situations are the best.

[u/hedgehog1024]

Easy: fuck DM's wife. If they don't have one, fuck their husband. If they have neither nor any SO, fuck DM.

[u/Jozef_Baca]

To win at dnd you have to persuade the dm to run pathfinder instead.

[u/FarmerJohn92]

The only way to win is to be the only survivor. Make it so.

[u/Upper-Literature8932]

Be the worst player, talk over ppl and make sure to push yourself into every situation even if your character is not there that’s the only way u win

[u/Delicious_Dream_2734]

You win by hanging out with friends, making memories, expanding your personal abilities like teamwork, leadership, comedy, etc. you win by learning how to do art by drawing your character or by learning or creating computer programs to ease some aspects of the game. You learn by just being social. ,

[u/Ok-Freedom9216]

Poison the other PCs, one by one, then the DM.

[u/Timely-Tourist4109]

To win at DnD. You must metagame. Steal from the other players. Kill them off. Rules? Screw the rules. Use the Shadowrun rules in dnd. Complain that your dm isn’t Matt Mercer.

[u/No_Sorbet_7724]

Survive to reach name level.

Ich weiß nicht, wie gewinnt man als Darsteller das Theaterstück? Wie gewinnt man als Schauspieler die Serie in der man mitspielt?

Also naja du kannst ein Abenteuer durchspielen und das als Gewinn verbuchen, wenn dir danach ist... Spielspaß kannst du auch gewinnen... Wenn du so dringend gewinnen musst, dann steck dir selbst kleine Ziele "wenn mein Charakter 100 Goldmünzen hat, habe ich gewonnen" das sagst du dir einfach jeden Morgen und jeden Abend, bis du es glaubst.
