Does hitting an illusion discharge my touch spell?

Zurnzal moves forward some more.

@Joliryn: Unfortunately everything goes off as it was a "succesful" attack.

3=hit: 1d3 ⇒ 3

Zurnzal inches his way closer to the action, while Shohiraj somehow manages to hit the actual Zey.

The shiny copies of Zey stand their ground and cast a spell defensively.

Concentration DC 27+4: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (14) + 22 = 36

A bolt of lightning flies towards Zurnzal and arches out to hit the rest of you as well.

Re-rolls can be used on the Reflex saves.

Ya unfortunately this is just the way it goes sometimes. I do not have any rerolls so I remain Unconcious. Good luck guys, roll well!

And this is where we see the difference between Aspis and Pathfinder.

Zurnzal turns and starts fleeing the room.

Ah! I forgot the readied spell.

Concentration DC 34: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (3) + 18 = 21

Rataji blasts Zey, causing him to lose his spell.

Everyone's alive! For now...

Good news! That changes things entirely, then. I'm within 30 ft. now, correct?

GM, how tall is this room?

#kingwizard

Pleased with his work, Rataji grows confident but eager to end this farce. "I tire of this little game," he says as his hands weave yet another spell. Upon its completion, a burst of distortion hits his foe. "Let's play another one."

Confusion, DC 20 Will Save.I can't move my token right now, but he will also move to the south wall.

All the magical energy exploding around her has Joliryn plenty confused as she tries to force punch Aram Zey.

322 follows Zurnzal as she heals herself.

@Zurnzal: You are indeed within 30 ft.
@Gazwyr: The room is 30 ft. tall.

Will: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (16) + 15 = 31

Zey resists Rataji's befuddling blast.

Joliryn fumbles her first strike, but the second manages to shatter an image. Missed by less than 5

Zurnzal draws back the bowstring, waiting for the perfidious Pathfinder to focus his attention on a spell.

Gazwyr shatters the last shiny copy of Zey, allowing Shohiraj to bonce a bolt harmlessly off his stony skin.

Zey swiftly casts another spell through his rod, and Zurnzal's timed shot flies wide. He then attempts to cast another spell defensivly.

Concentration DC 23+4: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (19) + 22 = 41

His glittery form disappears and reappears on the other side of the chamber.

Double move.Threatening

Joliryn does not want to give Aram Zey a moment of reprive and closes in on the mage in an instant.

Anger rising to a boil, Rataji's rage begins to show. "Your spells cannot save you from our wrath, LAY DOWN AND DIE LIKE THE CUR YOU ARE!" He prepares another spell to strike Aram Zay at the precise moment his spell is about to cast.

Readied Action Lightning Bolt DC 18 for half

Lightning Bolt: 7d6 ⇒ (6, 1, 4, 1, 3, 5, 5) = 25

Rataji, let me know when i can go closer

attack: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (20) + 11 = 31
damage: 1d8 ⇒ 7

322 uses her spectral hand to heal Joliryn.

Cure Moderate Wounds: 2d8 + 7 ⇒ (2, 5) + 7 = 14

You know, considering how little damage I can deal, I don't might so much that I haven't hit once this combat.

Gazwyr will use his full movement to fly 20ft above Zey, and prepare an attack against Zey, if he does absolutely anything, trying to direct the cone away from his allies.

Shohiraj works away at Zey's stony skin and 322 heals Jolyrin, while the rest of you prepare to disrupt the wizard's spell casting. To your horror, Rataji's glitter fades and Zey disappears once more. Gazwyr can still sense him, though, and sprays him with acid when he starts moving.

Reflex: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20

From his new "hidden" position, Zey casts another pair of spells, the second one resulting in a dread bolt of lightning that strikes Rataji and arcs out to 322, Shohiraj and Zurnzal.

Reflex, Rataji: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13

Rataji is stone cold dead, but 322 has a scroll of Breath of Life, if you can manage to use it within 1 round (Spectral Hand can only deliver 4th level spells or lower).

@GM Skipper can she draw the scroll as part of a move action, like occurs to weapons when a PC have +1 Bab?

<50=miss: 1d100 ⇒ 22

Joliryn struggles with hitting the invisible Zey.

@322: Sadly, retrieving a stored, non-weapon item is a separate move action.

Gazwyr flies to Zey and attempts to grapple him.

We are just doomed to fail!

Just curious GM, last time rataji prepared a spell to attack zey and Zey was forced to make a concentration check, this past round both of us prepared attacks for that same reason, you only made 1 reflex save, and no concentration check. Just curious what was different between the last time and this one. I'm not overly experienced with magic especially at higher levels. Thanks in advance for whatever insight you can give me.

It's a matter of when the spellcaster takes damage. Rataji hit him while he was casting a spell, while you hit him as he moved. A handy overview.

AoO v Gazwyr: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19
Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 4

Gazwyr senses Zey moving away again, and a moment of arcane incantations results in three fiery rays to fly forth; one towards Joliryn and two towards Gazwyr.

Zurnzal keeps fleeing toward the door.

Joliryn, growing ever more frustrated, hustles to reach the mage or what is left of him and tries to apply to him the last bit of destructive magical energy in form of a force punch.

Attack 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (4) + 14 = 18 Damage 1d4 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

If I hit apply force punch for 22 damage and pushing Zey back. Would that mean he'd fall down?

Well guys, nothing I can do so I'm gonna retreat and I hope you all can do the same...Joliryn you're the only one I can bring with me since you're small.
Gazwyr will delay long enough for Joliryn to climb on, if she chooses not to Gazwyr will in-delay and full retreat using all his fly speed to get out of the room flying enough away from Zey so he doesn't provoke. Looks like with Joliryn on me my speed would be 90ft from a full withdraw, witch is still enough to get out the door.
Master of Scrolls, you killed our leader, but we will come for you, you win this time, but just know we will kill you!!! Fall back and regroup with the others!!!

<50=miss: 1d100 ⇒ 85
Crit?: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

Shohiraj manages to hit Zey, but without the tell-tale sound of the bolt piercing flesh. Joliryn rushes forth only to miss Zey, while the others start retreating.

Zey repeats his last actions, this time targeting Shohiraj and Joliryn.
