@rorek55, It's all good! That last form me was a reply to Yolo's comment rather directed at than you.
And I just realized that I gave myself an extra +1 to hit on the rolls there (I was forgetting to subtract one for size which shouldn't matter for anything in this fight so far, but still.) I've dropped a dodge point of AC from the War Mind Blessing to switch it to attack rolls to make up that difference as that seems like it makes the most sense.
There are a lot of mechanisms going on here. I don't envy Yolo keeping track of hers!
I am assuming the dragon is threatened by me hence the extra 1 damage, was tempted to jump at it but realised I could not succeed even with a natural 20 XD
Nadda, did not occur to me, was intending to grab anti flying stuff after the first round of combats, alas that bit me in the butt XD
As mentioned before, Still very inexperienced with table top rpgs XD
Yeah, normally it probably wouldn't be that bad of a bet to not bet on flying enemies at level 6, because they're still not super common yet, but if the monsters are being picked for their "kill PC" potential, your odds of them being flight capable go waaay up.
If you wanted to stick with Barbarian, I'd suggest either a Beastkin Berserker or a Flesheater for this challenge, since both have rather easy access to flight.
Also, GM, I put a link to my mythweavers sheet in my character's profile.
I know that if we get flying creatures again at the end with consistent ranged attacks it's going to be bad news for me. I've got an ability to attack at range, but it's not very effective. I only brought this one potion of flying and I'm hoping I can stretch it to 3 fights. After that I'll need to sort things out. Flying creature the first round might do me in in the long run, we'll see.
I wanted to at least finish the lvl 6 gauntlet :(
I don't think it's time to give up on rorek55 just yet. Life happens even in the middle of gauntlets and dragon slaying. I'm hopeful!
Indeed. Slate is decent in respect to his higher level builds.
Just occured to me but would you prefer if I roll my axes electrical enhancement damage separate like with the blood line damage or just with the normal damage???
Swift action and free action before a full round action should be all good to go! Nice round of attacks!
*edit* Actually I think there are a couple issues with that attack. When you're using elemental blood I think you should be getting 2d6 shock damage overall (you already get 1d6 from the greataxe being shocking.) Never Mind, you had that, just in separate places.
Also, when you crit with the greataxe, as a weapon with a x3 crit multiplier, the extra critical damage should be 2d12 + 24 (so twice the damage dice and static bonuses, but without the extra dice from lightning damage.)
Cheers, just wanted to be sure, I read up on it but thought it was best to be safe then sorry and to try and make roreks like a little easier if I was wrong.
Yeah, my Constructs were picked for having
A. Useful Spell Likes (Healing for Novenarut, Fly for Ja Noi)
B. Regeneration because I can't heal them yet
C. Decent Fightiness for 6 HD
Everyone loves ones, right?
ether that or the ones love you!
also for future I gotta remeber that my axe is x3 crit and not 2 XD
For some reason I can't help but think "Bob the Barbarian" to the tune of "George of the Jungle" in my head.
I love it, now its stuck in my head XD
ok, so we know who to blame, gotcha.
Yeah, I fear that I've rolled a boring foe for us. I was expecting 1d3 followed by 1d8; that's what the initial roll that got us the white dragon was. My assumption was that the 2 on the d3 gave us CR 6 (instead of 5 or 7 as we were told that CRs would be within one of level) and that the 8 gave the dragon based on the list of creatures that rorek55 liked (if I were putting the list together it would have been 8 for alphabetical reasons and both young and white could play into that depending on how they were listed.)
Switching to 1d4 for the first roll confuses me a bit though, but I fear we'll get a CR 5, alphabetically low monster. Maybe I've got the system wrong and we'll get something more exciting though!
Money where my mouth is. I'm guessing Basilisk for this fight. Remember to avert your gaze!

I changed to the d4 for a special reason, but you aren't entirely wrong with your assumptions. Though, I will admit alphabetical wasn't a reasoning, it was more of a "I just listed them out with not much consideration" haha.
that means however, you rolled the new "2".
I won't lie, the dracolisk was the number 2 enemy.
Also, apologies again, I have been with a high fever the past day or so.
you know.....I now have the strong urge to talk in the 3rd person perspective thanks to the George of the jungle comment.........damn yous!
I ain't gonna admit I forgot I could power attack........it just kinda slipped my mind till this point......Please don't revoke my barbarian card :(
Well, I'll be perfectly honest. I spent pretty much every non-working hour since Tuesday playing KH3, so I probably wouldn't have responded earlier than this anyway. :P
lol same here, its so good :3
We need our noble songbird back!
Or some temporal juggling to let the rest of us figure out who thinks they're hunting us now.
Yes, me want smash!
I think you mean 'Bob want smash' there. Third person is worth it, but it takes attention until you just naturally start using it.
lol true, will try and get into the mindset of it.
Sorry it took so long guys.
Awwwww all that damage and miss's :(
Ugh, stealthy enemies. My number 1 counter. That said, it seems as if this enemy is in the same boat that I'm in, with a high stealth but a low perception. Looks like this match is definitely going to take a while. I'll do my best to speed things up when I get in close.
When we get to level up, I'll definitely have to see what I can do about increasing my damage.
Thanks for letting us know! Life takes precedent for sure, but knowing that you're busy and haven't forgotten is always nice!
@Mu, we pretty much have opposite tactics here. I'm not trying to sneak at all, just sit there as a tempting target and then hit hard when they come to take the bait.
Oi, don't steal my strategy! :P
Of course not. I'm a half-orc that self buffs and uses power attack. It's nothing like you're strategy. Er, because I can fly for another couple minutes I guess?
(Glares suspiciously) I aint sure about all of that, looks mighty familiar to me!
I can't use that strategy effectively though. The vast majority of my defense is DEX & dodge AC. Being flat-footed is insanely crippling to me, and I don't have the highest HP stat. The fact that my reach is 0ft also doesn't help, since it means that I can't ready an action to strike back like you guys can. So the most effective thing for me to do is to try and wait him out, I guess.
Fortunately for me, I get five perception checks! :P
