GM Peachbottom's War for the Crown

Game Master Peachbottom

Gotcha

Xallis, I see you have a +2 mithral chain shirt now. Since you now are wearing armor, mage armor doesn't stack with it. The mithral armor gives a +6 bonus which is higher than the +4 from mage armor, so the mage armor doesn't add anything extra.

Hey GM, does the surprise round count as a round for painful stare's 1/round limitation? If so, Henrika will add 5 damage to Tychus's second attack against purple (she didn't have hypnotic stare active for his first attack).

Also, Jack drank a potion of barkskin before battle began. It doesn't look like it would have changed anything about who hit and damaged him, though.

Yes, I'll add 5 painful stare damage to Tychus' damage.

Yeah, if it's a +2 AC barkskin, it doesn't change anything, but I'll add it to my spell tracker so I remember for future attacks.

Yeah. At this point mage armor is just for Navia.

Ohhhh I see the misunderstanding. The +4 in Xallis' AC is because barkskin upgraded to a +4 bonus at caster level 9th.

Oh. I guess I missed that Xallis had barkskin too. Those attacks will miss Xallis with a 23 AC. I'll revise his hp.

Tychus, isn’t the first attack a critical threat?

GM, Jack’s barkskin would have protected him from that second attack, right?

Yes, I know he had the barkskin but I made a mistake when looking at his character sheet. It should be a miss.

Tychus, isn’t the first attack a critical threat?

Woops. I don't know how I missed that...

Been having internet issues at home. Brief delay on posting while I get that sorted.

Malphene, Henrika added damage to the attack you made last round, not this one. Since she didn't attack (she was casting confusion) and she had her hypnotic stare on yellow, she could add a bit of psychic damage to Malphene's strike. I hadn't intended to dictate what Malphene does this round!

Likewise, because Ichabod goes before her in the initiative order, if he also deals damage to yellow she can add to it because she can use her painful stare twice each round.

Oh. No problem. Nevermind. I'll remove the additional 5 damage.

Also, Malphene gets another attack at -5, right? Because her BAB is over +6?

I believe my Ring of Evasion would cause me to take no damage from the Lightning Bolt.

Yes. I missed that you had that.

Henrika rolled Painful Stare for all three attacks, but she can only trigger it twice with Manifold Stare, correct? Henrika hits High Cultist (Red) three times for a total of 92 damage, killing him twice over.

Yes, she can only use painful stare twice in a round. Henrika's first attack was a 1 on the die, but I left the painful stare roll there. I should have deleted it and moved the roll down. :)

Oh was it a 1? I didn't even notice. It doesn't matter.
