[Gameday XI] GM Doug's Cavern of the Sundered Song (Inactive)

Game Master Doug Hahn

The Shadow Signet is a big deal item. Such a big deal that it's a "Must Have" for anyone who wants to use Spell Attack spells.

Woo, another pick crit. I could do for a little better on the damage rolls, but that's just me being greedy.

Yeah, 9 on 2d6... 9 on 2d10... yay? ;)

My very first fatal crit, my summoner's beast's jaws rolled 11 on 2d6 and 3 on 2d10. cries

I think the green area-of-effect may have moved slightly (one square up?) by mistake.
Last round, I moved out of it, at the 'northwest' corner, but this turn it was covering me.
shrug

Yup. Version history to the rescue!

Often for these battle-length effects, I will add the aura to the background image in Photoshop so they do not get nudged on accident. Here I thought. "surely someone would dispel these annoying creepers right away." Turns out you all had cooler plans.

I'm hackin' away 12 hp at a time.

Possibly relevant shortly but Orin has a Crafter's Eye Piece which says to "increase the Hit Points restored by 15 per proficiency rank instead of 10."

The Repair Action of course actually only heals 5hp per proficiency rank on a success (10 on a crit)

TL;DR; Crafter's Eyepiece isn't written correctly, there's a way I think it's probably supposed to work, but other conclusions are possible as well.

Go with the you think it works — agreed.

For healing, Seggiatore is +14 in medicine, but hasn't had a chance to improve it to Expert, so he only restores 2d8 (or 4d8 on 11+).
He's probably better Aiding at +1/+3 to increase crit chances for others.

Or aiding the repair checks, whatever people are rolling rather than assuring.

Wanted to resolve the diseases as the next roll was is an hour. It would happen while healing now (as it may take you some time) or traveling.

Let's recover tonight and heal up. I'll move us on int the morning.

Great work! That was an epic battle. Probably one of the longest I've run in 2E yet.

Oh. Well, that saved my staff charges...

Disease is actually virulent so it takes 2 saves to remove! I believe the rule is that you make the second save next time it would progress.

Well, in that case...

I think Kohl's juggernaut should be a crit success to remove their disease at least.

Yep, a crit will clear it.

Counteract rules suck (or those things were way too powerful).

Need to heighten those spells! :(

If possible, if they agree to a song, Seggiatore would use it to inspire competence in the others. Not sure if these are single actions or "you spend a minute and then check" which would preclude aid/guidance/etc

Yup, that's a great idea! You will see why soon enough, if you do well.

Well, I think we're off to a pretty solid start, at least.

Do critical failures hurt us? Not knowing the language put these is kinda dangerous territory for Kohl.

yeah, we lose a point.

But since it seems the song idea will work, I can aid you...
Performance: 1d20 + 20 - 1 ⇒ (15) + 20 - 1 = 34 for +3 :D

And any aid on Yendi's diplomacy will make that a crit too!

I think that since the society roll beat the DC20 and raised my item bonus to +2, it already is a crit.

Not sure advanced first aid works here as its not removing the disease:

> Isqulugia's sickened, slowed, and paralyzed conditions can't be removed until this affliction is removed

Let me know if there is something I am missing here, though.

Looks like everyone posted and clearly its a success. I am out until late afternoon and will update us then!

That's how I'd read it. Unfortunately. Nasty, nasty disease.

Ah yup, that likely wouldn't work then. I though they were separate instances.

Yesterday got away from me.

Another infodump is on deck, after which you can ask more questions, but wanted to pause here for any RP and clear diseases; likely move on tonight.

Won't be able to post anything until late.

Our guests were delayed. :D

How are we on resources? Do we need a rest?

Kas is still good for the time being.

I'm down 1 level 5 slot of 2, one level 1 of 3, and 3 staff charges. Not the worst situation by far.

Out till later afternoon Pacific. Looks like Nivi's house on no rest?

The thing to keep an eye on is Fatigue.

If fatigue isn't an issue yet, I should still be alright on slots to take care of at least one of these bits of business. We can probably re-assess after that, if we need to rest before doing anything else.

I've got plenty of pick attacks left.

I will let you know if fatigue will be an issue before you head out. Seems fine if you want to fo at least one before resting.

I think the plurality was for the gnome, but I'll roll with it. :)

EDIT: I figured the abandoned home most likely to be infested with horrible aberrations.

I took Chulyin's "any way is fine" as a non-vote and it was split, so I went for the one that was suggested first. Well, we're here now.

As the baker's wife once sang, "This is ridiculous, what am I doing here? I'm in the wrong stooor-ry!"

Long-overdue Hero point to Yendi for using the fun psychic cantrip to help the party out in crucial moments… like important crit failed saves and helping everyone spot dangerous horrible fungus monsters.

(If you notice the spores and make the RK check, then you automatically spot the monsters. Otherwise they're a tough Perception check for those searching.)

Wow who would have thought Nivi Rhombodazzle would be so bad at Yahtzee!? :p

or maybe you guys are just THAT good!

It's like blackjack - the house holds at 4 of a kind.

Gotta say, rolling a pile of extra dice makes Yahtzee a lot easier

I think it said each pc can only benefit from one additional reroll.
Style points aside. :D

You're right. Fingers crossed!

Well, looks like one additional reroll was more than enough!

U think heading to the dragon first thing would be a good plan. Hopefully we can have a nice chat and pick up our Pathfinder, but if that does have to go the rough way, I think we want to be fresh for it.

Made the Crafting and Survival checks. Perception check still not made.
