Block initiative works better than the regular in PBP in my opinion, so I'm more than fine using it. And if GM could have initiative tracker in his combat posts, all the smoother.
BTW, how does energy damage work against things with hardness? I remember there been some confusion in my games...
Is the energy damage always halved before applying hardness ? (maybe not fire damage if these things have a weakness)

Guess who's going to call dibs on the khopesh if it's treated as martial?? :DD
"Ooorrr... just hitting them very hard works well also, I suppose..."For some reason, I just picture everyone flailing around, while Amal and Luke just soccer-kick the constructs into a wall and shatter them to pieces
It's not so much flailing as Djedefre is incompetent in combat. ;)

You're welcome!
And yeah, another enthusiastic hurrah for block initiative. You might even want to extend it, GM, to identical enemies like these so a first turn would go:
Senemheb and Djehuti who won initiative.
-
All the baddies.
-
Then the entire party, rolling round 1 into round 2.
-
Baddies again.
-
Whole party again and round it goes.
Granted, there is a certain danger in having all enemies effectively act together, but that's a sacrifice I know some go for in the name of smoother play. Still, I'm not at all opposed to how things are run now.
As for the hardness question, Senemheb, the hardness score is apparently subtracted from all damage, including energy, although vulnerabilities are apparently an exception. Hardness is incredibly poorly utilized as a term in PF, the same word describing at least two completely unrelated forms of damage mitigation. I had to look this up for Iron Gods.
Going to be leaving tomorrow on a family trip to Milwaukee for a few days. I'll return on Friday, so if a post is needed from me in the meantime, please feel free to bot me. See you then! :D

I updated the loot list with everything I think we've decided to take. I'm going to add the link to my stat line so it's easily findable along with it being in the Campaign tab.
I think it's editable by anybody with the link so if you claimed something feel free to put your name next to it.

Thank you very much for setting up a loot sheet! :)
I'm back!
Hoi!

Was kind of thinking of our explorations in-game while we went to the House on the Rock!
Now I wanna put an Osiriani merchant's tomb in Golarion full of strange art installations and collections of junk that say more about the occupant's eccentricities than the history of Osirion. :P
Don't tempt me.
Question for the crew: for rolls the entire party needs to make - such as for whatever the mirror is about to inflict on Djefedre - should I just make the rolls myself to save time or would y'all feel better doing it yourselves?
Eh, I'm fine with either option. Which is to say that I generally prefer rolling my own saves, but can see how the GM doing so is definitely more expedient.
Oh no...ohhhhh noooooo...
Either way is fine. It might take a day or two for all the players to roll, so sometimes it might speed up to have GM rolling.

I'd go with DM rolling group saves if everybody needs to roll. That way everybody can post reactions when they post.
As long as it's not flesh eating scarabs or being mummified alive! :D
Oh man you know there are going to be scarabs if we just got a Scarab Shield. ;)
I didn't realize they were solifugids on first glance. That's sad, solifugids are cute, with their big doofy chelicerae and teeny little eyes!
I'm letting you use hero points to make me reroll enemies attack rolls or saving throws.

Sorry for my absence this week. I've been on vacation, and I thought I had more time online - but days just go by...
Back to normal on Monday
LOL, none of us have Knowledge (nature)! It's a good thing Jolánka plans on being a knowledge check machine in the future...
FYI, I have been placing characters where I think they are based on folks' posts. If I start combat with them in the wrong spot, let me know and/or move them to where they'd be according to you. I.e. Djehuti being on the platform and thus being hit by the electric part of the trap.
Also, @Amal, prone is prone. Feel free to flavor things like that.
Sorry I took so long, by the way. I was distracted by TennoCon and the announcement of the impending collab between Paizo and Digital Extremes!
Oh, very much so! They're writing an adventure for Starfinder 2e based on DE's hit game Warframe! They did a blog post of it here!
