WHAT POISON I DRINK POISON FOR BREAKFAST YUM YUM.
:D
Would it be possible to get a map? On Google Drive or something?
Also, a pony.
I'm still here. There just hasn't really been much of anything for Gralamin to do - he's letting the sneaky, trap-finding people do their job. It's also been a busy weekend.
How high is the ceiling? I can fly people across. Someone should look out for the magic source down the hall.
The ceiling in this main corridor is 10 feet high.
Any DC for flying people over the trap?
As long as you can fit their whole bodies in a space that doesn't touch the floor, then no, but Garret's perfectly capable of disabling the traps that block the way for walking anyway.
and so he has.
By the way, I'm sorry, but a map won't really be possible from my end. The map that I have has WAY too many spoilers all over it.
also, why won't you just go through the mist? :D
Strong conjuration that we can't figure out? Forget it!
Shush you ST and your suggestions. >.>;
Also, I'm back. My internets were out for like ... ever. GAAHHHH. RAGE.
Cough. I'm here!
Welcome back! ST? Supreme Tactician?
ST - Storyteller. Sorry, played WoD forever.
Hey, I thought I'd give you a warning and a little hint.
The solutions to the puzzles in this dungeon are much more specific than you will have been used to. To get past this first one, take ALL of the environment into account.
Like, say, the ceiling?
Well, yeah, but I mean there are specific parts of the environment that you need to remember and think about, because they're part of the puzzles and their solutions.
Think about puzzles in...say, literary mazes and things.
Everyone still ok?
And literary mazes--like the Labyrinth?
Gralamin, it occurs to me that with your level and Intelligence, you should be able to move that sphere of annihilation around. If you want.
Unless it's cursed. o.0
The sphere is fixed.
I suppose so. The point is that the puzzles are specific.
Gramalin is amazing. That is all! :D
If you guys are using summoned creatures, I need to see what they are first before we move on XD It matters this time. Otherwise I'd just be like "Holly summons a dog. The dog levers open the door. Room description."
Good job with that first portion of the riddle, by the way!
Holly summons a swarm of monkeys on the GM. :P Hang on, looking at things she can summon.
Shadassa, what is your crossbow bane against?
Undead--darn, it didn't show up on the page, or in Hero Lab!
I really, really want to rise up out of the water with that crossbow like a Mermaid Rambo. (on fire.) C'mon, you can picture it.
I totally can and that's...pretty badass.
I might remember at least one room with water in it in this dungeon, but I could be mistaken. If not, and we get there, we can do so afterward.
That is a completely badass image.
Sorry for my disappearance. I thought I had posted about it, but I guess not. My wife had knee surgery last week, and she's pretty well confined to her chair and dependent on me for most things, so I have little time right now. I'll try to post as I can.
I have to admit, I'm having a hard time picturing the few places we've seen so far.
It's one long hallway. No turns. At the end of it is the demon face.
Next to that, on the left wall (if you're facing the face) is the misty arch.
All along the right wall is a sort of mural. The golden chest is part of it, and since that sticks out, I imagine that some of the other stuff does too, but that hasn't been described at this point.
Near the golden chest is the hidden doorway we are working on now. It's hidden by the fact that it looks like it is just painted on.
All along the hallway at intermittent distances are pit traps. At the bottom of the third trap is a hidden doorway.
That's what I have gathered so far. If I'm incorrect or missing anything, someone please say so.
You're actually pretty accurate right there, but that the golden chest is the only thing protruding from the wall.
It's really only a hallway so far. This dungeon gets pretty convoluted, it gets pretty difficult.
Checking in. I think we're waiting on the results of the expendable door-testers.
We are, yes. I am waiting on either a summoned creature or someone to open the door. I'm considering DMPC-ing Holly to do it, but the next thing is actually a combat, so I want to make sure everyone's around for that.
Just DMPC the eidolon, with the summoner trapped inside. Horrors! There ought to be a spell that does that...Charm Eidolon or something. For use by Evil GMs only, of course.
I thought the idea was to make a summoned creature that was separate from the PCs so that no PCs would come to harm in the opening of the door.
How far away from the door can we get? 60'?
Yeah, that's the idea, but we're still wanting to have line of sight to it.
Two questions about Garret: First, do you want me to just assume you'll be using Crane Wing on the first attack that hits you each round? Second, how old is he supposed to be?
Garret is willing to take a weaker shot if need be. If something is able to attack with a small claw and a giant bite, Garret will take a hit from the claw to be able to deflect the bite. Basically, he'll focus on the most potentially damaging attack to deflect.
If all the potential attacks seem equally dangerous, he'll deflect the first (highest BaB attack)
I hadn't decided exactly how old Garret is, but I pictured him being about 37 or so. He just looks a little older because of hard living. :)
I ought to remind you that you don't need to post in initiative order, so if you're on, please post your action so the compiling can happen sooner.
Also, lexi, we miss you!
Lexi has been struggling with some life issues lately. I sent her a message a couple days ago. Hope she's able to come back soon.
I know, I'm in I think...three games with her? No, four. Four of my six games on this forum, I share with lexi, so I'm missing her quite a bit.
Grousle. Actually, I'm totally okay, but if the building doesn't fix the damn internet soon, they won't be...
>.>; Life has been conspiring against me, but I'm still thinking of you all! Trying to catch up now and hopefully the internet will get restored before I have to stab a b@$!$...
Holly, each of your natural attacks should be at a -5 penalty when you use them with regular weapons (unless you have the Multiattack feat which reduces the penalties down to -2)
Hmmm. I shall look into that, I'm afraid I've completely forgotten how Holly works. XD
Welcome back in any case! Now, go forth and kick butt.
What about Haste, though? Ah, too close to lunch to think clearly.
If I'm remembering everything right, natural attacks get tacked on after a normal attack sequence, with a -5 penalty to each natural attack.
So in Holly's case, her attack sequence would go-
Primary attack (first hand): -2 penalty from 2W fighting
Primary attack (second hand): -2 penalty from 2W fighting
Secondary attack (first hand) at BaB -5, -2 penalty from 2W fighting
Secondary attack (second hand) at BaB -5, -2 penalty from 2W fighting
Primary Natural attack (bite?): -2 penalty from 2W fighting, -5 penalty from natural attack
Secondary Natural attack (hoof?): -2 penalty from 2W fighting, -5 penalty from natural attack, 1/2 strength bonus to damage
Secondary Natural attack (hoof?): -2 penalty from 2W fighting, -5 penalty from natural attack, 1/2 strength bonus to damage
Haste would add one Primary attack (either hand) at the same bonus.
Double Slice only works with weapons, not with natural attacks. One of your natural attacks is Primary, the others are all Secondary (you pick which is Primary. Usually it's the Bite). Secondary natural attacks only get 1/2 strength to damage (there is a feat to fix this too, I think)
Glad you have to back around, lexi :D
Garret appears to be right. You should have 7 attacks with decreasing attack bonuses.
1- Falchion +11 (2d4+10)
2- Falchion +6 (2d4+10)
3- Falchion +11 (2d4+10)
4- Falchion +6 (2d4+10)
5- Hoof +5 (1d6+4)
6- Hoof +5 (1d6+4)
7- Bite +5 (1d8+9)
Can I shoot three times with a crossbow with Haste? I think I can shoot, load, shoot, load, shoot.
If you have Rapid Reload, yes. If you don't, you're limited to a single attack and reload, even with Haste (sucks, I know)
Feats...gotta love 'em.
