I had no idea a wizard would have so many hp. I figured one or two good hits and he would go down. I got the one good hit in but he held on after 3+ more. I also figured if I stayed put they would down me for sure, so might as well get in a hit beforehand. I've always thought healing in combat was less efficient than dealing more damage.
I guess this reflects my lack of experience playing past level 2. Sorry, again, guys. I feel like you would have had the wizard with one more good hit, but the construct and thugs would possibly do you in first. Too risky.

Well healing is sometimes inefficient, but when you're super low like that, fighting is the last thing you should do. Next time just retreat, drink a potion(like a big emergency CMW or CSW) and then start fighting.

yeah, level 6 wizard and a robot against a bunch of 3rd lvl characters was a pretty nasty encounter... I'm just glad we survived it all. Thanks for running!

I guess I should get such a potion with prestige. Saving up for an adamantine double sword.

Thanks for running the game, GM! I enjoyed it except Kelsier is so useless out of combat. I think I'm going to spend the retaining money to make him a Slayer/Alchemist 2/1. He will still be able to do *most* of what I wanted him to do in combat but he should be much more diverse.

Thanks GM for the game, I enjoyed it very much, especially the fast paced encounters.
Edit: as for healing in combat saying it is less efficient than dealing damage is just theorycrafting imo, it all depends on the circumstances you are in. In this case you were very low on hps and charged against 3 melee opponents with no chance of getting to the wizard, a pity because with some teamwork we could have won this (Vanya being a rogue is way more dangerous if she can flank btw).

Yeah, in the future I think I will plan on doing more out-of-combat coordinating with the party. I am noticing that is a lot more necessary after level 2.
