Sadness.

Ventus shouts something very, very impolite at the goblin and turns his weapons on the beast.

Longsword (FE+bless): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
Damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11
Shield Bash (FE+bless): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8
Damage: 1d3 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

WOW

... ouch.

DM: is bless still up?

Ventus's attacks cleave through the air ineffectively.

The giant goblin-beast snarls menacingly before lunging for the ranger.

Intimidating Glare: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13

Grapple: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (15) + 10 = 25

Ventus is grappled and intimidated for one round.

Everyone else and then Ventus is up.

So... it's not large and I can't reach it with my axe? :(

You'd have to move back to make room.

Doran cusses at the goblin's sudden appearance, raising and aiming his weapon with lightning speed. He fires, making sure to not hit his friend caught in the monstrous goblin's grip.

Doran fires his Heavy Repeating Crossbow at the goblin (standard action) and reloads (free action).

Masterwork Heavy Repeating Crossbow vs. Monstrous Goblin (Bless + Divine Favor + PBS): 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 6 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 29
Confirm Crit: 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 6 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 28
Masterwork Heavy Repeating Crossbow damage + Extra critical damage vs. Monstrous Goblin (Divine Favor + PBS): 1d10 + 1d10 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (2) + (2) + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 8

Okay, it's official. Once we get out of this dungeon, I'm never going to manage to hit anything ever again. :3

The bolt slams into what should be a vulnerable portion of the beast's heavily muscled neck but it barely seems to notice.

You'd have to move back to make room.

But I can't step back 'cause I'm in a corner. :(

By step back, I mean move.

More sadness!

Ysme raises the Halberd & jabs it at the malformed Goblin as she strides toward it.
Halberd attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
Halberd damage: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5 piercing

Nice reach weapon bro.

Pfft!

Pirknok steps past the wrestlers and brings his axe to bear against the huge goblin. Move to AD10.

Attack (PA): 1d20 + 6 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (13) + 6 + 1 - 1 = 19 (Don't forget his -2 to AC for being grappled!)
Damage: 1d12 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8
Oh, come on, damage dice.

The giant goblin's third arm reaches out to club the careless dwarf.

AoO: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11
Damage: 1d3 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6

Hey! He's grappled, how'd he do that?!

Not that I'm objecting to you missing, you understand...

One assumes with the third arm

But he still has the grappled condition! :(

Indeed.

Hrm. Okay.

Edit: I have seen the light. Apologies for doubting, and thanks for missing.

Ensu tries to hide his disgust that everything in this dungeon had to be a freak as he very quickly backed out to the hallway (Y-7) as this thing was entirely to close for comfort.

Cornered, Eli tries to slip past the beastly Goblin, drawing his dagger as he does so, and he takes a swing at it.

5ft step to AB8, draw dagger, attack with flank. 1d20 + 1 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 1 + 1 + 2 = 12
Damage 1d4 ⇒ 1

*shakes fist at the dice*

"Someone kill this thing!" Ventus yells, stabbing at the thing with his sword.

Longsword: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6
1d8 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12
Shield: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7
1d3 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Yep, this ain't gonna be good.

:(

At least Doran and I have hit it... though I sure could've gone for more than minimum damage.

The mega goblin grunts as Pirknok's weapon slams into its side but doesn't slow a beat.

The massive goblin grabs Ventus around the waist, lifts him into the air as if he weighed no more than a child, folds him, and then slams the ranger into Eli.

Slam: 1d20 + 10 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 10 + 5 = 30
Damage: 1d10 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11

Ventus is prone but no longer grappled. Eli can make a DC:17 reflex save. Failure means he takes the same damage and is knocked prone.

Ouch

"You heard him!" yells Pirknok at Doran and the others. Roaring ferociously, he swings his axe again.

Attack (PA): 1d20 + 6 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (17) + 6 + 1 - 1 = 23
Damage: 1d12 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12

"Yes." Ysme replies to Adventus' call as well. "In Shelyn's name I say to you, take that which is hateful within & give it back to your Mother!!" As she drops the Halberd & slashes at the creature crosswise with each clawed hand.
Swift action: declare Smite Evil on the misshapen Goblin.
Right Claw attack: 1d20 + 4 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 + 4 = 21, 17 if he's not Evil.
Right Claw damage: 1d4 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 + 2 = 5, 3 if he's not Evil.
Left Claw attack: 1d20 + 4 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 + 4 = 17, 13 if he's not Evil.
Right Claw damage: 1d4 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 + 2 = 8, 6 if he's not Evil.

Ruh-roh... Reflex 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24

Eli hops to the side as Ventus goes flying past him.

Nice rolling... literally! Now just kill it!

Eli, Ensu, and Ventus are up.

Ensu tries to harass the freakish monster long enough to give Ventus a chance to recover.

aid another (Ventus AC) 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (15) + 3 = 18

Maintaining his position for the time being, Eli harasses the Goblin with his dagger, trying to keep it distracted for Ysme to get her claws into something vital.

Aid another to Ysme 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13

And Doran!

Eli you need to make a reflex save.

He did!

Whoops! IGNORE ME!

Kill the thing, and I'll consider it!

Ventus pulls his shield up and stands carefully.

Full defense to cancel out prone AC penalty, current AC 22 with Ensu's aid another.

Doran level's his crossbow and takes a shot.

Masterwork Heavy Repeating Crossbow vs. Monstrous Goblin (Bless + Divine Favor + PBS): 1d20 + 6 + 1 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 6 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 15

But this time the bolt glances off of the goblin's thick hide.

***

As Ventus climbs to his feet, the big goblin lashes out with a massive fist.

AoO: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21 - SUPER CLOSE

Roaring in frustration, the beast turns on Pirknok.

Grapple: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (12) + 10 = 22

Intimidating Glare: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18

"AH EM TIRED UV YER KIND ALLUS GRABBIN' ME!" yells the dwarf at the thing's face, before pounding his head ineffectually into the big green arm. Despite his bravado, his knuckles are white on the hilt of his axe.

Attack (PA, grappled, shaken): 1d20 + 5 + 1 - 1 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (7) + 5 + 1 - 1 - 2 - 2 = 8

Ventus rushes in to try and keep Pirknok from suffering at the hands of the beast as well.

5 foot in and...
Longsword: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15
Damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9
Shield Slam: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21
Damage: 1d3 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

I don't know how Shield Slam would work if the target of the bull rush attempt is in the middle of grappling, Rule it however you want.

It would potentially but A) There's stuff in the way (boxes) and B) It wouldn't do much to help Pirknok because he'd still be adjacent.

I was trying to knock him prone to give Ysme, Priknok and I an advantage.

Well it's not really a solid surface either. I'll give you something.

Ventus's solid blow sends the giant goblin reeling into the box of sharp goblin weapons. The collision opens several bleeding wounds.

Bleed: 1d6 ⇒ 2

Waiting on Ysme, Ensu, Eli, and Doran.

Huh, this thing is either smarter than I thought, or too stupid to change targets until one falls down...

Hissing in anger at this thing attacking her friends, Ysme slashes at it once more.
Claw attack: 1d20 + 4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 + 4 = 11, 7 if it's not Evil. Either way it's a miss.
Claw attack: 1d20 + 4 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 + 4 = 27; oooh, so close! 23 if it's not Evil.
Claw damage: 1d4 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 + 2 = 7

Ensu will cast guidance on Doran, not having anything else he can do without drawing unwanted attention from the goblin.

Oh hey, I just realized my last attack should've benefited from flanking. 'cause a +2 will totally make a difference when I roll like that, right?!
