It could. It won't though. It's doing what it just did regardless.

You said that I can't move two short distances and attack someone at medium range over the period of two turns, but I definately don't want to spend an entire round running to get the full distance of medium range and leave myself open to being attacked, either through spellcasting or melee.

Well that's kind of why ranged weapons are nice.

So, hey, does Jhennek still have that nice Elemental Spikes Spell goin'?

Because that would be helpful.

Also: Arden bravely runs away!

It was the only sensible thing to do, I'm afraid.

I did say I'd let her keep it until you were out of town.

Arhra · 03-18-2011, 07:27 AM

I have run out of words so I had to put together a post with what little I had left.

It is my finest work.

Dracorion · 03-23-2011, 06:36 AM

Oh well, that's too bad how we lost one of our valued teammates in taking down the beastie.

I wonder how much compensation the employers would provide for the loss of dear Caspin. At the very least, we should get his share.

Teal Mage · 03-24-2011, 12:56 AM

Hey Krylo, can I get a description of the area around us? I'd like to see if there's any terrain Arden can use to assist better in the fight. Cover, a part of the area she can use to attack the boss from unexpectedly, etc.

Also, is the City of Undead approaching? About how long do we have 'til they get to us?

/Awareness Checks, probably.

We are very clearly outmatched right now, you see.

Edit: Oh, while I'm asking things. Why is no one posting? Hmmmm?

The time until they get to you ranges from never to a few rounds. Chances are I won't actually make any reinforcements get there to speed this along. Assuming anyone still has any care to post I'd rather end the first missions as soon as possible. If I do it'll only be a few and in a couple of rounds from now.

As for places to hide, there's a few houses on the sides of the road. You can't be sure they're actually safe, though.

Also, note: I never actually said lightning would damage the McGuffin. I simply didn't deny it when asked. I don't see it as my job as GM to clarify (without rolls and pertinent skills etc.) whether or not a risk will for certain play out for or against the PCs. In this case, the risk is launching huge lightning bolts at someone wearing something you don't want broke. I only mention this because it seems you guys are working on the assumption I said it would for certain ruin the ring.

Also, part two: Group 2, the Fresk is down. Do something to subdue it and let's move on.

Unless this is dead, in which case I will take the blame for being a pretty lackluster GM for a couple weeks here where I felt shitty/got distracted by other things.

Out of character, I didn't post because Bello's knife isn't going to kill anything and I thought that mimic-ing Jhen's lightening would be a waste. Now I know that it wouldn't have been, but it will be now unless she targets another zombie. So, yeah, unless we run or I feel like trying to snatch the necklace, I'm stumped. In character, Bello isn't one to charge a wall of zombies.

Though, Bello may try to snatch the necklace so that they can get the heck out of there. This fight isn't something we need.

Menarker · 03-24-2011, 02:30 AM

Well, now that Ark and Elsa are in close range of the zombie Lord, we should be aiming for constant Combination attacks in order to overcome his regeneration. (Regeneration being one of the things that get negated by that apparently)

Riin Whitewind · 03-29-2011, 04:53 AM

I didn't want to post without hashing out some sort of plan, was waiting to see if anyone else came up with something.

I'd -like- to obtain sidequest bounties, but if it's not feasible, it isn't. Jhen will be sad, for all of the five minutes before some other puzzle appears.

But mostly, we need to find the win condition for this fight - since I somehow think the reinforcement potential on this boss is somewhere around infinite*.

We don't have the juice to wage a protracted battle! As fun as it would be.

*since cities are rather large, and Krylo was rightfully nonspecific on how many of whats are scrabbling about where we can't see.
