Attack of opportunity roll, defensively: 1d20 + 4 - 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 - 4 = 4

Els will take a 5ft step to give Kramac a flank and try to trip the monster again.

"Darn these things are a pain in the butt."

GM, do these things look undead? If they are, I might start zapping them with my wand next turn.

"Heads-up guys," Els says urgently as notices that his companions spacing out. Whilst they get their bearings, he darts forward to draw the enemy's attention.

"Hey you creepy-looking things, over here!" Els yells.

Move forward, full defence. Hopefully they won't be attacking anyone whilst they're flat-footed. AC23

will save against scary badness: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23

And he also taps Doldrak with his (as in Els' wand).

Els sees Kramac going for the humming person and runs around to the other side of him.

"Hey Melisca, let's go help Kramac focus down that noisy one first!" he yells as he moves around to the other side, giving Melisca the opportunity to get a flank.

If I double-move, I should be able to avoid provoking from either of the baddies.

Els will delay till the rest of the guys are done.

If the monster still stands, he will attempt to trip it.

CMB: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18

If not, he will attempt to coax a cure light wounds from the trapped entity.

Els delays till after Kramac. If Kramac takes out his target, he will double move around the orb to give Melisca a flank.

Els darts around the stairs (or is that the facets thing?) to the other side of Kramac's opponent to give him a flank.

Els jumps off, executes a somersault mid-air for style, and lands lightly on his feet.

"I on the other hand am quite at home in the wilds, so perhaps I should help navigate," Els replies.

I have a +11 on survival, thank you druid level. =) Can I take 10?

Ooo! Update!

Per acrobatics rules, if I deliberately fall, I can make a DC15 acrobatics check to reduce the effective falling distance by 10ft. If we're 15ft up, I can reduce the effective fall to 5ft, which will result in 0 damage and not falling prone. I'll go for that. =)

acrobatics rol1: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18 That'll do it. =)

Els drops down to the floating island below and rolls as he lands to soften the impact. As he uses the momentum to push himself back to his feet, he gets ready to trip the first enemy that comes into range.

"Sounds like a plan. I'm far from the best the Society has to offer by way of diplomat, but I will aid in any way I can."

Melisca looks like she probably has the best modifier, so perhaps she should make the main roll? If I can take 10 I will auto-succeed at an assist.

Use my first CMB roll to blind him with a dirty trick then. XD

Els notices Kramac's attacks being affected by DR, and so will use his AoO to try to trip the little bugger.

"I may not be able to punch through this guy's magically-hardened skin, but I can make his life incredibly frustrating while you guys do it," he says cheerfully.

AoO CMB roll: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 4 + 2 = 20 That might lower his CMB roll to get back his pick?

And then at the end of that, if the little guy still manages to snatch back his pick, Els will try to disarm him again, and then try again, or try to trip him if he is already disarmed.

Flurry CMB roll 1: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 4 + 2 = 26

Els takes advantage of Melisca's tactical advice and weaves past Doldrak and her to get a flank with Kramac. Seeing the goggly-eyed person's proficiency with his pick, Els decides to see if he can pick it off him.

reflex: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24

Els gives a surprised yelp as he is thrown into the air, but is able to land on his feet, albeit a little painfully.

"Let's not stick around longer than we have to. This place is getting painful!"

With that, he steps into a flank with Kramac and attempts once more to blind the little rock monster.

Els notices the earth thingy full attacking, and that its attacks hurt.

"Let's see if we can do anything about that," he mutters to himself as he moves closer and tries to drape his cloak over the small earth thing to temporarily blind it.

GM:
Resist -ve energy 5. =D

Els grins as he notices where the cleric/oracle is standing/lying. He grabs the guy by the ankles and attempts to flip him over the parapet down into the pit.

"Hey, you didn't happen to dig that pit yourself, did you? 'Cos my friend Melisca over there really didn't like it. Maybe you need to re-inspect it up close?"

bull rush: 1d20 ⇒ 16 Prone penalty applies to his CMD. =D Hello 50ft drop. XD

If that was successful, Els moves into the vacated square and then makes like a grasshopper once more, jumping across to the North side and moving to engage the other guy.

Your earlier post said that the reduced gravity allows us to jump 5 times higher. Acrobatics to jump high is 4per 1ft under normal gravity, so here the DC to jump 30ft is 24, and if I score 20 or more I should be able to catch myself against the wall.

Since I am jumping against a wall, can I get a circumstance bonus the same way kicking against the low wall in an SOC helps with the jump?

Els takes a deep breath and sizes up the wall.

"Well, it ain't everyday you get to jump around in low gravity. I''ll probably never get a chance to try something like this again. GERONIMO!!!"

acrobatics to high jump: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25 Awesome!

As he clears the wall with the most exhilarating jump of his life, Els gives a whoop of delight, and then turns the momentum of his jump into a leg sweep as he lands.
You mentioned they were holding crossbows, so no AoO. =)

"Well, if that's the case, let's see about taking down the earth elemental first!"

Els moves out of melee with the scorpion (provoking and AoO) and darts around to almost give Doldrak a flank.

attack roll: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19
damage roll: 1d6 ⇒ 4

Doldrak, if you take a 5ft step you'll get a flank vs the earth elemental. Melicsa can also move without provoking assuming the crysmal does not have combat reflexes

As soon as Doldrak hits the floor, Els rushes over to him, grabs his happy stick and starts prodding him with it.

Then he does the same to Melicsa if time permits.

Happy to let Doldrak and Melicsa roll their own healing, I'll keep using it till they tell me to stop. The good news is that if the earlier rolls are anything to go by, Doldrak should still be alive. =D

"No punching of animals please," Els replies drily.

"I can use those wands, so if none of you have the skill, perhaps I should hold on to those. The crater looks like it will be a continual combat-slog, but if that's what you're well-disposed to handle, I will do the best I can to keep you all standing with these wands. From the description we were given, the icy side will probably reward those with a more scholastic bent, and the sunny side those who are equipped to handle heat and skilled with Numerian technology."

If the three of you are combat-focused, the crater might be our best bet. Not my strongest suit but I'll do my best to keep up. XD

I will use your wands on you as needed out of combat, if time permits.

Posting so this pops up in my campaigns feed.

I'll have a level in druid so at least one of us can actually use those damn wands. That makes me the designated healer, so keep me alive, guys. XD
