** During the fight at the ziggurat, [[AddedAlliterativeAppeal Percy's pepperbox pistol]] ''never once'' jams or misfires. On the stream, this was a common occurrence with both guns, to keep them from being too overpowered. When the fight turns from "Vox Machina versus the Briarwoods" to [[spoiler: Percy versus Cassandra and the rest of Vox Machina]], he doesn't reload and [[BottomlessMagazines gets off more shots than is realistic]], which is lampshaded by Vex saying "he has to reload sometime, right?", implying supernatural assistance.

[[spoiler: Whenever Orthax takes over, the pepperbox gains unlimited ammunition. This is foreshadowed earlier, when he kills Captain Stonefell - he fires seven shots without reloading, despite it being a six-shot weapon.]]

* AerithAndBob: All of Vox Machina have fantasy or otherwise atypical names... and then there's Percy.



** A meta one. Percy gained the nickname "No Mercy" Percy from fans of ''Critical Role'' due to his brutal kills and willingness to be more intimidating than his fellow members of Vox Machina. In this show, the music track in "A Spark of Rebellion" where [[spoiler:Percy destroys Kerrion Stonefell's weapon, shoots his arm off, and then empties his gun into him]] is titled "No Mercy Percy".

* TownGirls: Pike is the Butch (ladette tendencies, the only one in the group wearing visible armor), Vex is the Neither (mature, diplomatic ArcherArchetype), and Keyleth is the Femme (shy CuteWitch interested in flowers and talking to animals).

** [[spoiler:The Chroma Conclave are truly unstoppable, with Vox Machina completely helpless in the attack on Emon and even unable to visibly damage Umbrasyl in their final encounter until Scanlan deals the killing blow. In the stream, they were still ancient dragons, but Vox Machina was able to put up a decent fight against Vorugal during the attack on Emon, force Umbrasyl to flee from the Herd, and eventually take him out in his lair in a straight fight.]]

Individually, they are even larger, stronger, and tougher than they were in the stream, with Umbrasyl in particular displaying much more intelligence and magical ability than he did in-game. Thordak, meanwhile, goes from a souped-up red dragon with mostly standard abilities to a true Kaiju of monumentous size and a laser-like BreathWeapon that can level half a city.]]

Added DiffLines:

** The Vestiges of Divergence in stream are better than average D&D items, but have to be exalted over time to reach their true potential, and even then they fall short of true artifacts like the Sword of Kas. In the show, they are truly legendary items, much flashier and more powerful than even their fully exalted in-game counterparts.

* FiveRoundsRapid: Percy's bullets just ricochet harmlessly off the animated armor. So what does he do? Just keep shooting! {{Justified}}, as his only other gun is a single-shot weapon, and Percy isn't shown to be adept with any form of hand-to-hand combat or method of projectile weaponry that isn't his pepperbox. He does eventually find the armor's weakness and shoots the joints, which does indeed render the armor inert, but it takes him a while.
