Heroica RPG - Unlimited Quest: Fields of Glory

[K-Nut]

Althior prepares two blasts of water to throw at the Dragon from the back row.

[Flare]

Xander grits his teeth, sizing up the dragon. He equips his Electro Gear in place of the Marksman's Hat, and then attacks the dragon from the back row using the hand cannon.

No need to do both. Just use the handcannon and attack twice

[posades]

Xander hears Benji's words, keeping the Hat on and instead attacking again from the back row..

[Brickdoctor]

"Master Carvenhall, the three Lucky heroes can easily deal more than the 252 Damage per Round we need to deal in order to take the dragon down before the point where it's guaranteed to use its second Special. In fact, Master Unth'or can get close to that mark on one of his normal Hits alone. At this point at the beginning of the battle, there's no need for you to risk attacking."

[Flare]

"Alright, but its disappointing for me. I was looking forward to beating this big baddy to a pulp. Maybe later on I'll have a chance to shoot at him a bit."

Benji uses a grand potion on whoever that was damaged on both turns. Otherwise, throws a water bomb.

Alrightee! Let the first round begin!

OoC: Use a Water Bomb instead of doing nothing if there's no one who needs healing.

OoC: Also, posades, you can't roll Aim with the Precision Bow, but you can with the Hand Cannon. With all your multipliers, the difference between Aim and Hit is significant. (12+26)*3*2=228 normal Damage on a Precision Bow Hit/Aim, (9*2*3*2=108 Lightning-elemental Damage on a Handcannon Aim.

Not sure if I missed something there in the calculations, but I think it wouldn't be a bad idea to stick with the Precision Bow or use one Turn to equip the Electro Gear and then attack with the Precision Bow. (456 Lightning-elemental Damage on a Hit/Aim)

You added an extra *2 to the bow's calcultions.

[posades]

OoC: I figured it was a toss up, either waste a potential big hit by switching to Electro Gear, or spend a turn and do guaranteed good damage from here on out. With me being lucky, I'm crossing my fingers that Aim doesn't come into play too much, and hopefully I can favor Fire within the first couple rounds.

[Flare]

OoC: Alright, so it doesn't really matter. Feel free to roll, CMP

[Brickdoctor]

You added an extra *2 to the bow's calcultions.

OoC: Encouraged.

[Flare]

OoC: Encouraged.

OoC: Oh yeah, you're right. Alright, but he will definitely get more damage in with a normal hit. Since he's lucky, its more likely he'll get in a hit than an aim

[posades]

OoC: So a minimum 400 or so damage with the bow/gear? Gah, guess I'll do that then.

Xander once again changes his mind, equipping the Electro Gear first instead of the Hat, then attacking the dragon from the back row with his bow.

[swils]

"Stuns or double damage?"

Thormanil asks, before readying his attacks

[Brickdoctor]

"The Dragon is immune to effects, including Stunned."

[swils]

Just woke up from a fifteen hour nap. Missed that bit, whoops!

Thormanil grabs his Lightning Totem and attacks the Dragon twice from the back row.

[CMP]

Round One of Obsidian Dragon Obliteration

Xander swaps Electro Gear for White Marksman's Hat

Thormanil attacks Obsidian Dragon with Lightning Totem, back row - Special Damage Hit (37 x 4 = 148 damage)

Althior attacks Obsidian Dragon with water, back row - Meditate Spell (42 x 4 = 168 damage, -1 ether)

Docken throws Water Bomb - (10 damage to Obsidian Dragon)

Benji throws Water Bomb - (10 damage to Obsidian Dragon)

Xander attacks Obsidian Dragon with Precision Bow, back row - Special Damage Special Damage: Final Countdown (Countdown reduced by one)

Thormanil attacks Obsidian Dragon with Lightning Totem, back row - Damage Extra Critical Hit ((9 x 3) + 27) x 4 = 216 damage)

Althior attacks Obsidian Dragon with water, back row - Meditate Shield: Magical Vortex (42 x 4 = 168 damage, party healed 37 health)

Docken throws Water Bomb - (10 damage to Obsidian Dragon)

Benji throws Water Bomb - (10 damage to Obsidian Dragon)

The party gets off to a good start. Thormanil spearheads the attack. While the Dragon takes a moment to inhale a mouthful of air, he delivers two devastating blows. It rears up, cloaked in ember-ridden smoke, and Docken, Benji, and Althior take advantage, pelting the beast with a wave of water, causing his black scales to sizzle.

OoC: He equipped the electro gear, not the hat He already had the hat equipped, so he switched the hat for the electro gear. Also, the Dragon's health should now be at 1737, not 1817... You forgot to apply the damage from the bombs, I think.

[Flare]

Where is everyone? It is unusual for me to be the only posting after a round. Even Doc hasn't commented...

[Brickdoctor]

OoC: Believe it or not, I do get off EB and go to sleep sometimes.

"Again!"

On both Turns, if Althior, Thormanil or Xander rolls Damage, I give him a Grand Potion. Otherwise, I use a Water Bomb.

[swils]

Sorry, sorry. Yet another busy weekend!

Thormanil attacks the Obsidian Dragon from the back row, twice.

[Flare]

Benji uses a grand potion on whoever that was damaged on both turns. Otherwise, throws a water bomb.

Same battle order.

Auto-roll until - special damage is rolled, or if hero is damaged and doesn't manage to get healed.

The bombs only did 40 damage put together. Fixed.

[posades]

Xander attacks the Dragon from the back row twice using his bow. If he has the opportunity to mark Fire monsters after the first attack, he will do so instead of Beast.

[Flare]

The bombs only did 40 damage put together. Fixed.

Shouldn't the bombs be double damage, since water is *2 against fiery?

[CMP]

They do.
