GM Karma's #6-17 Fires of Karamoss (Inactive)

Game Master -Karma-

Yup, lockwooded myself... sorry about that!

GM Karma, I assume the mephit moved 5' up and back on his first square moved? If he went straight up, I still get an AoO, since only the first square moved out of is protected.

"Infemis! Nunc nescio quid adhibita quae ex hoc carcere balistariis!"
Faustus drops his shield and mace, drawing his crossbow. (move to drop shield, move to draw crossbow. Swift to change judgment to +2 to hit.)

"Ibid, Miro, did we fix or break those portals? Are we going to be able to shut them down?"

Whoops! Updated my durations and even added in the charging condition, but forgot my HP! Small thing... sorry about that. ;-)

Faustus: The mephit moved 3d-diagonally back and up (ascending in 45 degree angle), so there shouldn't be AoO.

So, to explain the situation shortly: You successful meddling with the portals removed power levels from the portals. Once Jethzerai activated them, they gain a new charge at the end of each round. And once a portal has enough charges, it starts to pour out lava.

"You cursed pointy-ears!" Jethzerai screams, the cold still stinging its skin. "I'll make you pay for that!" The salamander shouts again words of magic, and then appears to be screaming, but no one except Finarin hears anything.
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 4
Finarin takes 4 damage, and is dazed. DC 15 fort save to halve the damage and negate the daze effect

Then Jethzerai uses his jetpack to move him away from the dangerous elf, gaining altitude at the same time. Now at 45ft

Next: Miro, Finarin, Ibid, Lort

"Throw the grenade thing at this portal! Maybe that will shut it off!" Cyrus shouts as he begins to bring his crossbow to bear on the flying salamander.

Having to wait a round for these makes them tough to use with any reliability - but we need to come up with something to stop these things from spilling out lava, or we are all going to be roasted!

How high is this ceiling? Could Finarin use the mag-boots to catch up to the salamander?

Is it the same rules as before for deactivating the portals earlier or do we have to destroy them another way? Ibid knowledge?

Totally confused, Lort stands there astride his dying mephit. "What should I do now?" he asks the more knowledgable members of his party.

No action yet. Sorry, would like a little more info.

Ceiling 50ft. It was kind of hidden in the description box text... And the previous activities for deactivating won't work since they took several minutes, and portals are now powering up one charge per round. So you'll have to find out other ways of disabling them. Destroying might do something to them...

Fort Save: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17

So the grenade is a splash weapon - 10' range? How long would it take me to put on the mag boots? Who has them?

Well, while the adamantine enchantment still holds, let's do this!

"Second thoughts, friends, I think I'll just destroy them!" shouts Lort cheerfully, remembering that his blade is now able to smash most ordinary objects in a matter of seconds.

Adamantine Greatsword vs Portal #1, power attack, inspire courage: 1d20 + 11 - 2 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 11 - 2 + 2 = 28
Adamantine damage vs Portal #1, power attack, inspire courage: 2d6 + 11 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (2, 2) + 11 + 6 + 2 = 23

Lort's enchanted weapon cuts easily into the portal's structure, and making considerable damage to it. The damaged portal cannot control all the planar energies, and some escape resulting in small plasma explosion.
Damage : 2d6 ⇒ (1, 6) = 7
Lort ref : 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9
Miro ref : 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (20) + 9 = 29

Miro takes 3 damage, Lort takes 4 electricity damage while his resistance protects from fire damage.

The portal is severely damaged, but still functional.

"Ah, coward it is .... Jethzerai. Why don't you come down a ... bit and we can discuss matters?"

Sheathing his scimitar (Move action), he steps closer drawing his long bow (5ft step). Whispering arcane words, transferring some of his energies into his bow, the supple yew wood becomes trimmed in blue runes that scribble and disappear along the curved edges. (swift - spend Arcane Pool point to make it +1, icy). Taking careful aim with the natural weapon of the elves, Finarnin loosens the string as the arrow hisses through the air towards the salamander.

Longbow attack, IC, Heroism, +1: 1d20 + 8 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 8 + 2 + 2 = 13
Longbow Damage, +IC, +1, +frost: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10
Longbow cold damage: 1d6 ⇒ 6

Come on that is a 1, and a 2 to attack. Screw it, Free Folio Reroll

Longbow attack, IC, Heroism, +1: 1d20 + 8 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 8 + 2 + 2 = 18

that is not much better

If a 18 hits, 10 from +1 arrow, 6 cold.

The old man grinds his teeth in frustration as the first arrow misses. But quickly Ibid loads and fires another arrow at Jethzerai.

attack, longbow(IC, RF +2/+2, DA): 1d20 + 7 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 7 + 2 + 2 = 29
damage, longbow: 1d8 + 7 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 7 + 2 + 2 = 12

The halfling rolls away from the damaged portal, gritting his teeth as the energies roll over him painfully. He gets to his feet, still singing his inspiring song as he lets loose a sling stone at Jethzerai.

Sling, IC: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 6 + 1 = 22
Damage, IC: 1d3 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Maintain IC, fire sling

The adventurers release a volley of missiles towards the flying salamander. While accurate, Miro's slingshot and Finarin's arrow glance off harmlessly against Jethzerai's hard skin. But learning from his unsuccessful previous shot, Ibid manages to pierce the salamanders defences, and the arrow sinks deep into its flesh.

The wounded memphit flaps it's wings and flies closer to the big gate. It looks at the closest Pathfinders in a funny way, and suddenly Cyrus starts feeling very warm, as if his armor is heating up.
Faustus will save: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (10) + 10 = 20
Cyrus will save: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (7) + 0 = 7
Finarin will save: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27

Next: Cyrus.

Cyrus, your fire resistance should still be active. It had a 30 minute duration (CL x 10 minutes).

Thanks for that reminder! I don't know why I was thinking it was only a level 1...

Cyrus curses at the flying flames, knowing he just isn't close enough to sneak a bolt into a sensitive spot when they are actually paying attention. He switches his crossbow back to his offhand, takes his wakizashi, and sprints towards the portal that Lort is trying to hack apart. With a yell and a quick prayer to Sarenrae, he flies at the thing, having it with his magically hardened blade.

attack portal: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18 for damage, Heart of metal: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7

-Posted with Wayfinder

Cyrus: did you have some ninja thingie to boost your speed? Otherwise the portal is too far for you (need to move 50ft)

Yes, sorry! Trying to post on my phone while at work... Spending 1 ki point for 20' of extra movement. Looks like I forgot to Lockwood myself too... That is done.

-Posted with Wayfinder

Faustus glares at the mephit, but ultimately it did nothing to him. Therefore, he turns his look to the salamander flying overhead, and decides to bring it down. 'Maybe Cyrus can turn the portals off when we get the a#+##++ down.'

Move Action: Load crossbow w/ Cold Iron bolt
Swift Action: declare Bane Outsider(Fire)
Attack Action - shoot crossbow!
Crossbow, Bane, judgement, IC: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (13) + 11 = 24 damage: 1d8 + 4 + 2d6 ⇒ (2) + 4 + (4, 2) = 12

"Foul Beast! Get thee down here and face your DOOM!"

--- Before Faustus' turn ---
Cyrus sprints across the room, and slashes the portal with his wakizashi. Again, the enchanted weapon cuts easily into the portal, and damage creates a small exposion.

---
Faustus fires his crossbow, and his inquisitional powers guide the bolt straight into Jethzerai's soft tail. The salamander grimaces, but does not look like he's giving up the fight.

@Faustus: Does the Bane'd bolt count as magical?

"Where is the power coming from?" Cyrus shouts to no one in particular. He eyes the control panel that the smoking hulk of tig-0 was working on.

-Posted with Wayfinder

"NO!!! Leave that portal alone!" Jethzerai shouts, horrified. He directs his jetpack to fly closer to Lort and Cyrus, the two responsible to the destruction of the portal. The salamander points a pistol-looking device towards Cyrus, and pulls the trigger. No loud bang is heard, nor smoke escaping the barrel. Instead, just a light blue line traverses through the air, hitting the ninja in the head. Immediately, Cyrus feels cold creeping into his body, and freezing his muscles.
Ranged touch: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (19) + 12 = 31
Cold Damage: 1d8 ⇒ 3
Cyrus takes 3 cold damage

Next: Miro, Finarin, Ibid, Lort and Cyrus (the mephit delays after Cyrus just to speed up the turns)

Edit: removed stagger from Cyrus; zero pistol causes stagger only on a critical

Ibid holds his ground as the molten lava begins to flow through the channels. After briefly smirking at the salamander, Ibid loads another arrow and fires at Jethzerai. The instant the arrow has left his bow, the smile washes from the old man's face as the projectile flies futilely through the air.

Attack vs. Jethzerai
attack, longbow(IC, RF +2/+2, DA): 1d20 + 7 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 7 + 2 + 2 = 14
damage, longbow): 1d8 + 7 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 7 + 2 + 2 = 16

Bane adds a +2 Enhancement Bonus to the weapon, so I have always ruled that it does make it magical, much like a Paladin's Sacred Bond can make a weapon magical.

"Turn the portals off, fire-thing. We would rather destroy this fortress than the island."

"Let's hope this resistance spell helps me to avoid the heat from that lava!" cries Lort as he jumps up to the third portal and hits it with all he's got.

Greatsword vs portal 3, power attack, inspire courage: 1d20 + 11 - 2 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 11 - 2 + 2 = 30
Damage vs portal 3, power attack, inspire courage: 2d6 + 11 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (3, 3) + 11 + 6 + 2 = 25

Duh, of course objects are immune to crits. Edited.

Pretty sure you cannot crit an object...

Once again the elf lines the outsider up in his sights. Steadying his breath, the pulls the arrow to his cheek and slowly releases the magical arrow.

Longbow Attack W/ +1 Longbow, IC, Heroism: 1d20 + 8 + 1 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 8 + 1 + 4 = 15
Longbow Damage w/ +1 Longbow, IC: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
Cold damage: 1d6 ⇒ 4

Does the salamander retain his dex bonus while flying?

Um, that means my d20 rolls this encounter are 2,9,2,1,6,2 - super!

@Finarin: I feel you. Amaranti had pretty lousy rolls last adventure... Also, creatures with fly speed retain their DEX bonus. At least I couldn't find any rule that they didn't. Forgot to move Jethz. last time, now in correct position.

Finarin and Ibid find the fast-moving salamander a hard target, and their arrows fail to hit him. The portal doesn't try to dodge, and Lort hits. The portal is battered, but remains functional.

Next: Cyrus, Miro

Ok, this could be a total waste of actions, but lets see if this can help...

Cyrus leaps up to the control panel, weilding his shabby e-pick. He looks for a place he might be able to affect the power surging to the portals, hoping there is another way to shut this process down. He knows his companions are more than capable of killing the fiery creatures.

Acro or climb check to mount platform: 1d20 ⇒ 3 acrobatics is +16, climb is +6, not sure what the relevant check would be to not have to go around and take the stairs.

Disable Device, if possible, to reduce or cutoff power supply to the portals: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (7) + 15 = 22

Noticing that his attack seemed to have little effect, Miro decides to go to the control panel to help Cyrus.

Maintain IC, double move

Cyrus leaps to the raised platform, and starts looking for any method to shut down the portals. Just as he suspected, the console can be used to shut down the portals - he just needs some time operating the controls.

This requires two consecutive full-round actions while adjacent to the console and a successful DC 20 Knowledge (engineering) or DC 25 Disable Device check

The small portals seem to be drawing more energy. Two of the portals shoot balls of plasma around them, and one of the lava balls explode near Ibid, splashing him with burning hot lava. The lava flow from the portals has now reached the pool beneath the large gate, which starts drawing power from the heat. Small ripples appear on the gate's surface, but luckily it seems to be far from functional yet.

Ibid takes 6 fire damage

To make things worse, it is not just lava that comes out of the portals. A small creature of pure fire exits portal #5, and immediately moves to attack Lort.
Fire elemental attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23
damage: 1d4 ⇒ 4
Lort ref save: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16

Amidst all this chaos, the Fire Memphit lieutenant doesn't seem to do anything, it just flaps it wings, staying put.

Next: Faustus

"Keep them busy! I think I can shut this down! Stop attacking the portals!"

Cyrus works feverishly to cut the power that is pulling the lava into the room.

Cyrus will spend two full round actions to do it. Do I roll at the end?

-Posted with Wayfinder

"aye, we have this, Cyrus. "
Faustus loads his crossbow, and fires again.

crossbow, IC, Bane, judgement: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (15) + 11 = 26 Damage: 1d8 + 4 + 2d6 ⇒ (6) + 4 + (5, 5) = 20

@Cyrus: That's ok, we can use your roll, and apply the effects after two rounds. However, it's just one portal that shuts down per successful roll and two full-round actions.

Faustus fires his crossbow, and unerringly the Bane bolt strikes Jethzerai, who screams in pain. Still, the salamander ignores inquisitor, and concentrates his attacks on Lort. While using the jetpack to stay in the air, he casts a Magic Missile at the half-orc.

Magic missile damage @Lort: 1d4 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

Next: All but Faustus

Cyrus works on the panels, the pressure of the situation making his movements fluid and smooth as he works the controls to cut power to one of the portals spewing out lava.

round 1, full round action

-Posted with Wayfinder

Was the fire elemental damage physical or fire related? Just checking. I'll take 4 more hp off if it's physical, otherwise resist fire to the rescue!

"When the bad guys all attack you, you know you must be doing something right!" shouts Lort, "I'll let someone else finish this one off, I've 'loosened' it for you! Miro, your shortsword may even do the trick..." The brash, overconfident half-orc then strides around and past the fire elemental to the fourth portal (drawing an AoO from that movement for sure).

Hacking at Portal #4 w/adamantine greatsword, power attack, inspire courage: 1d20 + 11 - 2 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 11 - 2 + 2 = 26
Damage vs Portal #4, power attack, inspire courage: 2d6 + 11 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (5, 1) + 11 + 6 + 2 = 25

Quick question: could I cleave between the two portals next turn as a full round action? The feat says 'foe', and these portals are definitely attacking me!

The old man writhes as the globs molten fluid touch his skin and instantly sear his nerve endings closed. Within a split second the waves of pain fade, and leave only a numbing weakness in their wake. Ibid knows the lava is so hot that his skin and body is greatly damaged, even when only barely contacted, but that the extent of the burns cannot be registered by his brain through the shock.

As the aroma of seared flesh reaches his nostrils he feels a tingling sensation at the base of his neck and his knees go shaky while the old man's mind recalls his latent fear of fire.

Ibid's shaky hands and wandering mind cause his aim to falter...

attack, longbow(DA, RF, IC): 1d20 + 7 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 7 + 2 + 2 = 19
damage, longbow: 1d8 + 7 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 7 + 2 + 2 = 19

Trying to protect Lort and Curys, Finarin lines up yet another shot on Jethzerai.

Longbow Attack W/ +1 Longbow, IC & Heroism: 1d20 + 8 + 1 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 8 + 1 + 2 + 2 = 30
Longbow Damage w/ +1 Longbow & IC: 1d8 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 1 + 2 = 4
cold damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

So 4 damage & 5 cold damage

In the light of the discussion of starting the next game soon, I'm trying to speed up and assume Miro will aid Cyrus with the console as he posted earlier. Miro, if this wasn't your intent, feel free to post a different action.

@Lort: The damage you took from the elemental is physical. I really don’t know if you can use cleave on objects, but since I doubt Lort has had many chances to cleave moving opponents, feel free to use it here.

@Faustus: BTW, you are standing in the pool which is filling up with lava. Last round you had a non-used 5ft step, would you want to take it? Or rather stand there and look badass with your fire resistance? ;)

Elemental AoO: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

Portal damage: 2d6 ⇒ (6, 1) = 7
Lort Ref: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 2 = 21
Lort takes 1 point of electricity damage

Lort rushes past the small fire elemental, who tries to pummel the half-orc without effect. Another portal gets to taste the greatsword, and again a great amount of circuitry and wires is revealed after the explosion of fire and lightning.

Elsewhere the archers are trying to finish the flying salamander, but only Finarin manages to keep his aim on the fast-flying creature. The frosty arrow sinks into Jethzerai, and the ice in the weapon seems to burn him far more than it should.

"Oh, poo!" mutters the small memphit lieutenant. Whatever it was doing, seems to have failed. Frustrated, it takes another strategy, and tries to scorch the archers who keep firing on its boss.

Scorching ray ranged touch @Faustus: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20
Damage: 4d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 3, 6) = 14 This is fire damage

The portals keep their lava flow steady, but no new creatures emerge from the portals. The lone fire elemental tries to protects the portals, and keeps up its assault on Lort. The small creature of fire manages again to slam some bruises to the half-orc, and the flames of the elemental spreads and keep burning on Lort. However, his divine magic protects him from the deadly flames.
Elemental AoO: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21
Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 4 Physical damage
Lort Ref: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9 Lort is burning, but the damage will never get past the resistance

Summary: Lort takes 4 physical damage and 1 electricity damage, Faustus 14 fire damage, I didn't apply any resistance for Faustus yet

Next: Faustus and then everyone else. I'll put Jethzerai's action into spoiler below, this happens after Faustus turn. Just to keep the game moving faster... If Faustus rolls high for hit and damage, we might have an ex-salamander in our hands...

Faustus does not currently have Fire Resistance. He was mostly staying where he was since he doesn't want to lose his mace. So, he'll 5' out of there.

Faustus switches his judgement once again to Fire Resistance, after being burned by the mephit. Once more, he loads and fires his crossbow.
Crossbow, IC, Bane: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (16) + 9 = 25 damage: 1d8 + 4 + 2d6 ⇒ (4) + 4 + (3, 6) = 17

Cyrus continues to work on the panel.

"It's working, It's working!!" He says as he finishes cutting power to one of the portals.

Thats the second full round action

Thanks for clearing up all that damage, GM.

Oh, just saw the spoiler thing and finally understood. Cool. More damage.

Lort grimaces as the elemental and then the magical bolt slam into him, "Ha! I'll get these portal closed before you get that panel disabled, Cyrus..." then he looks upwards, "And long before those missiles have any effect, you evil fiery f*cker! They kinda tickle! So does your friend here."

Lort stands between the two portals and cleaves through one and then the other.

Cleave attack, portal #3, power attack, inspire courage: 1d20 + 11 - 2 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 11 - 2 + 2 = 31
Damage vs portal #3, power attack, inspire courage: 2d6 + 11 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (2, 1) + 11 + 6 + 2 = 22
Cleave attack, portal #4, power attack, inspire courage: 1d20 + 11 - 2 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 11 - 2 + 2 = 26
Damage vs portal #4, power attack, inspire courage: 2d6 + 11 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (1, 4) + 11 + 6 + 2 = 24

Man, my attack rolls continue to rock, but i'm probably just avoiding a 1. Why can't my damage rolls creep up just a little? At least these two portals are already damaged.

Either way - they both stink

The old man loads another arrow and draws back, looking down the length of the missle at the hovering salamander. His hand is still shaking and his weathered muscles are barely able to hold tension on the string, causing his aim to again go awry.

attack, longbow(DA, IC, RF): 1d20 + 7 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 7 + 2 + 2 = 14
damage: 1d8 + 7 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 7 + 2 + 2 = 19

Shrugging, seeing that Cyrus seems to have things in order over at the control panel, Miro rushes back towards the combat, short sword flashing at the fire elemental in his brave charge, his song still roaring strong.

Short Sword, IC, Charge: 1d20 + 6 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 6 + 2 + 2 = 21
Damage, IC: 1d4 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (4) - 1 + 2 = 5

AC currently 21

There is no escaping from the inquisitor of Asmodeus. Steadily he aims a shot, and presses the trigger. Jethzerai's magical protection does him no good, and bolt pierces the salamander's throat. Without the pilot to fly it, the jetpack cuts off the power. The stream of air ceases and Jethzerai drops down like a rock. Just before he hits the floor, the salamander's belt flashes and some invisible force softens his fall.

Falling damage: 4d6 ⇒ (5, 6, 6, 4) = 21

Perhaps it is best for the salamander that he is not witnessing his complete defeat - One mighty strike from Lort destroys two portals at the same time, and soon after Cyrus manages to complete a shutdown procedure from the console, resulting in powering down of one of the portals.
Portal 3 damage: 2d6 ⇒ (2, 2) = 4
Lort ref save: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
Portal 4 damage: 2d6 ⇒ (3, 1) = 4
Lort ref save: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7
Random portal shut down, 5 or 6: 1d2 ⇒ 1
Lort takes 4 electricity damage from the exploding portals

With Jethzerai down, Finarin and Ibid look for new targets, but are unable to hit the elemental or the fire memphit. Miro, on the other hand makes a brave charge towards the small fire elemental, making a decent cut on the fiery body.

The elemental turns to Miro, counterattacking with its flames.
Elemental slam: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

The fire memphit looks around it. It looks like he is not exactly in the winning side, but there's no escape either. With a shrug, it inhales deep and the breathes out long gout of flames at Faustus.
Fire breath damage: 1d8 ⇒ 1 not going past fire resistance, I assume?

Portal #6 spawning, 30%: 1d100 ⇒ 68

Next: everyone! Two enemies remaining, and one portal still active. The big gate has now 9 charges.

"Oi!" yells Lort to the elemental attacking Miro, "You wanted my attention before, now you've got it! Leave. Our. Halfling. Miracle. Bard. Alone!" Lort screams at the elemental like an overprotective Blood Pig (Korvosan football) coach.

With a quick stride to bring him closer to the elemental, right past the broken Salamander's body, Lort brings his large blade down in a powerful arc upon the creature born of living flame.

Greatsword vs elemental, power attack, inspire courage: 1d20 + 11 - 2 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 11 - 2 + 2 = 26
Damage vs elemental, power attack, inspire courage: 2d6 + 11 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (5, 3) + 11 + 6 + 2 = 27

Lort also says a small prayer of thanks to the dice gods. They have loved me this game, and hated others (sorry Finarin and Ibid).

So what portals are down and which ones are destroyed? Is there any left with lava coming out of them?

Cyrus continues punching buttons, know with supreme confidence he knows the way to shut the last portal down. He just hopes he can shut it down in time...

Disable Device: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (12) + 15 = 27

The mephit has been annoying Fuastus, so he decides to finish the little thing. He loads and fires at the thing.
Lt Crossbow, IC, Bane: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26Crit confirm: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18 damage: 1d8 + 4 + 2d6 ⇒ (3) + 4 + (6, 6) = 19 plus crit damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12 (Total of 31 if the crit confirmed)

He then turns to look at Miro, and casts litany of sloth on the elemental. This assumes Lort hasn't finished it off already.

"Miro, get out of there. Let Lort handle the damned thing."
