Basically the same here.

...it's like we're clones or something.

I call dibs on being the sane one!

[Capt.JohnPaul]

I don't really need a Letter. I would go Skirmisher. So if I get one, well... who has the highest bid?

[Waterbrick Down]

Well, is doomed = sudden death? Probably...

Some fun fact: We started this battle with 10 enemies and 8773/8773 HP. Now we only have 6 enemies, but are faced with 9016/12773HP.

Even if it is equal to sudden death, if special damage doesn't target us I want us to take the opportunity and take the rays out while we can.

[Sandy]

They are similar, as doomed inflicts sudden in death in three rounds, but ultimately they are different enough to say that enemies immune to sudden death are stil susceptible to doomed (and vice versa).

[Brickdoctor]

I just realized how long it had been since I'd run a true battle Round. The format of enemy stats has changed, the rules have changed, and I actually have to think about how to set up a battle instead of it being second nature.

Drake slowly passed out, having chugged three barrels of ale.

How can anyone possibly drink 3 barrels of ale? That's like 2 times Drake's total volume... Skrall might be able to drink 1 barrel, on a good day, but a human would probably die from drowning, let alone passing out.

All that liquid will have to go somewhere, and if Drake's "passed out" I hope he doesn't disgrace himself.

And if he doesn't, he'll spend all day in the outhouse when he wakes up.

Maybe they're the size of some small Barrel of Monkeys games.

That madr me laugh out loud.

Another possibility is that he didn't actuaply drink that much ale, but just pretended to drink out of empty barrels

The jakes is occupied! Will be for sometime...

Checking in from wonderfully sunny Las Vegas! Trump Hotel has Wi-Fi, so at least for the next day or two, I'll be around!

[Waterbrick Down]

Out of curiosity, what would happen if a Witch special mirrored the Bigger Fish's special?

[Zepher]

Atramor would meet his demise and be replaced by Bigger Atramor. That would be the end of the Atramor story arc. He'd have to start back over from level one. Bigger Atramor would have all the same characteristics, just no memory, and also he'd have to roleplay being awkwardly large.

[Brickdoctor]

Something similar happened in the Battle of Drakencourt with Sir Loren's Level-increasing Special. Pie got the buff as described, and then his stats went back to normal once the battle ended.

Yep. There's always a bigger Witch.

Gonna miss Special Mirror and the army of seaweed and rat minions.

Well, at least there's one witch left to muck around with Specials.

My advice is to target the enemies with the most hilarious, complex, and above all, overpowered Specials imaginable. There's a reason Zepher doesn't have OHKO Specials anymore.

[Kintobor]

I'll just have to find one that swaps the body of the user. And one that swaps gender.

[Dannylonglegs]

Or the one that turns the target into a newt?

I've just had a thought: what if Atramor had special mirrored Wren's Chaos in Eubric spell?

[Zepher]

Passive Specials are the only way to beat witches.

[UsernameMDM]

OK Quest 75 PCs, Hoke really, really wants that Flagpole!

[Scubacarrot]

Passive Specials are the only way to beat witches.

Special: This enemy immediately kills itself. Forever.

[Zepher]

BD, JimBee, sorry if it seemed like the battle ended. I didn't really intend it to seem that way (no "the battle was victorious). You can try to exit the battle if you like, but, you know, you have to do it the normal way (smoke bomb) and indicate what you want to do with the others in the kitchen.

EDIT: You may also end the fight creatively, but as of right now, I'm waiting on actions from BD.
