Thanks all, looks like just awaiting Eithrim.

Sent Eithrim a PM. He is trying to get dotted in.

I will post today.

I had completly forgot about this.

How high to we have to climb? Even with the rope my chance to succeed is about the same as my chance to critically fail.

30 Feet

Yeah, so I have a -1 Athletics modifier (untrained, 8 Str). Even with the rope I need to roll 16 or better 3 times before rolling a 6 or less once. Think I can make it up before I end up dying from fall damage?

With follow the leader, this is a + 7 that you have.

With follow the leader, this is a + 7 that you have.

More than 7 depending on their proficiency level. Who am I following?

You are following Zhao Fen so each of you may:

add your level as a proficiency bonus even if untrained
+ 2 for Fen being Expert

So +10 bonus for Rex it looks like.

So using 3 point to reduce drained condition. We would have 5 point remaining. 1 for good damage, 1 for the attack power of the spirit, 2 for saving drangle drang and 1 for the return of God bear.

Yeah... I have a problem. I am stuck on the wall. Since we are in an encounter. That mean our hireling cannot do nothing else than recall.

Has Omble encountered these creatures before? How does he know what their powers are?

Also I cast invisibility on Omble, but if you are stuck on the wall and can't reach the monsters during the duration I'd rather use those actions dropping a hypnotic pattern on them to buy us some time instead. Can you reliably reach them in time?

Yeah... i just realised my token should at the other side with our kobold.

My hireling has assurance so, i dont know if the gm says i arrive at the same time as Kohl.

As for the recall knowledge. Omble hasn't meet them but we have at the start of this adventure made a recall knowledge. But as soon it is my turn. I have a free recall knowledge since they need nature to recall.

Yes, you can arrive at the same time with Kohl.

PM'd Eithrim for clarification on his positioning as it could make a difference on the creature's actions.

I will post tonight! I keep forgetting!

There was a typo, my weapon is cold iron and frosty.

I just realised. Shouldn't Eithrym have an attack of opportunity before he need to make the save?

Yes he could, depending on his save there could be another enemy near him.

Ethrim... You attack what? (Also, you have an aoo)

But yeah for the crit!

He is attacking the demon that failed to possess him.

If Kohl doesn't hit, i will use my first to flank with him.

... please win this will save kohl.

4th level Circle of protection lasts for an hour so should still be up I think, it's really good against posession. It's just a shame she's so far out

Will bot Eithrim tonight if nothing by then.

I will try until i have critical failed.

I fear that our foe will fly while casting ranged spell. If that happen. My idea is to eithrym air walk. He has the biggest chance to survive this.

(I would have like to give it to our kobold, but he doesn't have a lot of hp.)

Bardok can cast earthbind once if the boss flies.

Is it darkness or heightened darkness? That could change my plans.

Ah Drangla, that darkness silence is a good combo.

It is not heightened.

Something tell me that our historian has some martial prestige.

The disciple was already described as being incorporeal.

I wasn't worried about spending the aspiration now. I've never seen an encounter last a whole minute.

Just a reminder (possibly lost to the old thread). I make 4 greater darkvision elixirs each day which last 24 hours. Rex takes 1 but had 3 others to give out. Hopefully someone took them if they did not already see in the dark.

Looks like Omble and Kohl have darkvision, so it makes sense that the rest of us would have taken one. Thanks Rex!

I haven't thought the effect of Silence on healing. That concerning.

I haven't thought the effect of Silence on healing. That concerning.

That only matters if silence was heightened to level 4. At level 2 it only affects a single target.

... So why would he put silence on himself.... is it an error of the author about how silence works in PF2?

I was assuming it was the 4th level version, that's why I cast dispel at 3rd. To be fair I don't think Fen would have any way to tell which it was, presumably she just noticed that we stopped hearing them and assumed the worst

The disciple groans in annoyance as everything around Drandle suddenly goes absolutely silent and extremely dark. Silence and Darkness spell centered on Drandle. The Disciple reaches out as Drandle grows just as large as the demoniac.

It looks like the disciple was the one casting all those spells.

The disciple is indeed the one casting the spells and the silence is just on Drandle, it is not heightened.

Could that darkness and silence is.... to stop drangle to realise we are pathfinders and help us?

Probably simpler than that. How are you going to detect what you cannot see or hear? Maybe he has sneak attack.

He does have sneak attack

I just wonder how he will put us flat-footed.

It is going to be a lot harder with you guys since you can all see in the darkness.

The darkness and silence is supposed to make him hidden and undetected which will make his target flat-footed. Most groups would likely have 1-2 people that wouldn't be able to see in the darkness.

I want to be sure. Does having ghost touch will help me to sneak attack an incorporal figure?

Also... GRR why a level 3 spell need to be used on a non magical weapon? It is almost like i need to also to cast magic weapon after this!

Drandle survived thank to you using your aspiration points.

Had you used no points Drandle and the Disciple would have worked separately with 3 actions each and would have been quickened. Their HPs would have been combined into one mass pool with once it reaches 0 the Drandle died.

Had you spent 1 point at the beginning of each turn the Disciple would have siphoned 40 HP fro Drandle to heal itself over and over again.

Spending 2 points as you did made Drandle act as a minion to where the Disciple had to spend an action to only give Drandle 2 actions.

The Disciple had weakness 10 to good damage so that extra 1 of good damage was actually an extra 11.

So spending 5 points there makes that fight a lot easier and saves Drandles life.

Nice work, everyone.

I'm going to use my downtime for retraining this time. I'm also apply a chronicle from Malevolence, so Kohl's catching up in level a bit.
