Apologies everyone, I've been having a really difficult month with my health. I'm trying to get back into things, hoping to get some proper posts up later today after work.
GM, the voice we can hear speaking--does it sound muffled, like the speaker is inside one of the those side rooms? From our current position it seems like we should have decent visibility into that largest room.

You can't see the source of the voice from your angle, but it doesn't sound particularly muffled. (You'll find the doors to those little rooms are open if you venture that way)
my copy of Starfinder Enhanced has shipped! woohoo!
Nice! I'll be waiting on my hands for it to drop on AoN.
Really looking forward to what they do for envoy.
Hoping Paizo frees them from the loop of GET 'EM AD INFINITUM, yeah. Hoping for maybe some abilities like taunting enemies, a temporary boost to an ally's speed/saves, that sort of thing.

That'd be swell, ngl. As much as I love being y'all's hype man

FWIW, Flint used Glow of Life and healed 30 points…Still down 115 though.
We can definitely talk about an update to the enhanced technomancer between this book and the next, if you'd like. I don't have the book yet though.
Hey Cellion, are we in an enclosed room currently? On the map there's the big white ring with a Medium-sized door and I'm wondering if it's apparent to us that the dragon can just go over or through or what the situation there is.

The big white ring is a transparent dome, and the doors are large sized, so the dragon can squeeze through if it wants to enter.
Good to know, thank you!
Believe it or not, this is Nysteryx already weakened after the fights with the Chariots
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If anyone wants somethin' to watch/listen to, the folks over at Narrative Declaration are playing Junker's Delight, GMed by Starfinder's Acting Creative Director Thurston Hillman himself!
Not sure if Sammad’s Inspiring Boost can help Ordyt at this point, but it would be a great buffer if he can get at least 1 hp back some way.
Not sure what Mari can do, other than maybe get over to Ordyt and hit him with a serum if Bel has it out and ready to go.
If they can work together to get Ordyt back up, perhaps he can heal himself as well…
Sadly, inspiring boost will only boost SP, but it will help to give a bit more buffer once Ordyt gets back on his feet next round. Mari is blinded, so I'm not sure if she can find him while he's unconscious. I'm leaning toward doubling Mari up for that reason, rather than botting her.
Yep, get em's bonus applies to all attack rolls, whether those are with weapons or spells.
In general, keeping people functional means more actions for the good guys, which in general is goodness, but it has to be balanced against other actions that might be useful. Healing Ordyt means he might be able to heal Flint (if he can be reached), but Mari might be able to help too...
Question--At 15' up, is Flint within reach for Ordyt to heal? Also, would the line of dragonfire have passed beneath him?

I forgot to update the tracker, but since you can't take the free/swift action to hover while unconscious, you drifted down to the ground. Makes you much easier to heal, but it did line you up with everyone else.
Flint took last round’s action. Waiting on this round in case Mari provokes AOO—may change Flint’s approach.

I’ll make a conditional post to keep things moving.
Vulnerable to cold, but Flint just can’t seem to land a hit before being knocked out.
Yeah the debuff to haste doesn't hurt dragons too much, yikes! That full attack plus a move is savage. If someone can heal/stabilize Ordyt he's got 1RP left, so one more round until it puts him down for good but maybe we can squeeze out enough damage to pull through.

I may not have been descriptive enough earlier, but she's both resistant and vulnerable to cold.

If I hadn't blown my actions being selfish by recasting my mirror image, I'd have gotten out a serum like I'd originally intended to do. I'm sorry. :(

WHAT KIND OF SENSE DOES MAKE?! :P
Hm. I more or less can't hurt it, since while I have the confusion effect disabling my exocortex, I am not proficient with longarms and can't use combat tracking.
WHAT KIND OF SENSE DOES THAT MAKE?! :P
Well, if you're vulnerable to an energy type, it makes sense to cast resist energy on yourself.
Yeah, resist XX then take 150% of whatever's left. Easy situation to get with spells but I've actually seen it as part of the statblock with some outsiders in PF1e
Flint will spend his last 2 rp to stabilize...then he is out of the fight.
Unless someone can get to him this round...then he can try and do something useful.

I think it's the other way around. You apply the vulnerability and then the resistance.

Alright team, I watched enough Saturday morning cartoons growing up to know that it's time--we need to Voltron together into our giant power-up form to win this fight!
Okay, watching Flint's crit a) not get its critical effect and b) be immediately erased and then some is really disheartening.
Not really sure what we can do to turn this around, she's probably rocking another 100hp or so, can Move Action heal for 10d8, has utterly brutal full attacks that moving doesn't deny her, likely has some degree of DR/magic that we're mostly failing to bypass, and can go invisible on a whim. Ordyt's going to try to move into cover and dispel but I'm open to suggestions if anyone has an idea.
At 1 hp, Flint is planning to take cover and shoot again unless someone uses the dragon’s reaction so he can zoom in and swing his Solar blade.
I keep the dragon's elevation over the ground in her stat line, so you can work that out. 10 feet elevation means the bottom of the dragon is 10 feet above the ground.
It's a double move for Ordyt to reach Flint, I've counted out multiple routes and I'm just too far away. I'm pretty sure I have the range to get closer and then cast Stabilize, but LOS/LOE is very iffy with Flint behind those computer banks.
There's also the matter of Resolve Points--does Flint have any left? We're in a very rough spot here, if/when Ordyt goes down again he'll probably die. I really don't want to write off Flint, but if I spend my turn stabilizing (assuming I can get LOE in the first place) Flint and he's not able to return to the battle I'm not at all sure she won't just kill me on her turn. But if we don't get him healed or stabilized this turn, Flint dies.
It's an easier question for Bel, I can 100% stabilize her and then she can spend RP to get back up again, but we're really struggling to hurt it and I'm not sure what to do. I'm open to suggestions if anyone has a better idea.

Flint is out of resolve points, so he is out of the battle either way. I was hoping cover and fire resist would keep him up, but that breath weapon is just too much damage!
I can't get to Flint either, unfortunately. :(
What round are we on? Is my confusion still ticking down?

Good reminder! It was 12 rounds of confusion so I thought it would just be the whole encounter. There are two more rounds of confusion remaining, including the current round.
Okay, thanks! Once it wears off, my exocortex reactivates and I can become combat effective again, lol.
One last question: if I move to stabilize Bel, can she instead potentially spend her RP to get back in the fight? It's a slight retcon.
| 2 people marked this as a favorite. |
Yep, that's absolutely OK. You're ahead of her in initiative.
