    Doesn't Dazed status auto-end a grab?

    Cause if not, I would have slid it.

    How many action points do I have? Not sure if it's just one or if I may have picked up whatever the previous player had left over when I replaced him.

    Everyone starts with an action point after an extended rest, so Ryadic you have one.

    I have a cousin down till Tuesday from interstate, so my apologies but the update won't be till after the weekend.

    So, should I go after the large ooze? He looks like he's probably close to death just by doing math off the top.

    Aieldar pulls back an arrow and lets it fly at the ooze, taking his time to make the shot.

    Someone make a careful strike roll, please?

    And if you think I should use my action point, let me know.

    The larger ooze, having downed one of it's prey turns it's bulk towards this new threat, Samhradh and lashes an acidic tentril against his unprotected forearm leaving a slimy trail of burning liquid over it.
    Large Ooze:
    Start of turn takes 5 fire damage from Thud's Brand.
    Start of turn takes 10 damage from Mindartis' Fiery Sphere.
    Standard action: Slam on Samhradh.

    Attack roll: 1d20+8 vs AC = 21. Hit.
    Damage roll: 1d10+4 = 11.
    The ooze to the south continues to pursue Samhradh but even in the rocky area the Wilden is able to avoid it's grasping tendrils as he moves to aid his companion.
    Lurking Ooze B:
    Standard action: Bone Melt on Samhradh
    Attack roll: 1d20+10 (Flanking) vs Fortitude = 16. Miss.

    The ooze dogging Aieldar squeezes through the rock expanse of the cavern, trailing acid dripping limbs across him which burn his flesh.
    Lurking Ooze A:
    Minor action: Shift two squares to L11.
    Standard action: 1d20+8 vs Fortitude = 23. Hit.
    Damage roll: 1d6+6 = 10.

    Okay, almost there now guys.

    Ryadic, make sure to take your saving throw against the Fortitude penalty since it's easier for the ooze to hit you while you have it.

    Responding to the pain of the lash, Samhradh punches the large ooze with his sword, followed by a fist of wind. The backlash of the attack catches the smaller ooze and forces it to fall a few paces back.

    Gale Strike vs AC: 1d20+8 23 2d8+4 7

    Slide the small ooze to K-6

    Mark the large ooze.

    Still think dazed effect should have saved Akarr.

    Nex, still not wanting to get close to these things, throws another shroud-empowered shadow noose at the small Ooze near Samhradh. It connects, pulling large chunks away and leaving the ooze barely alive [19 vs Fort Hit, 15 damage, choosing not to pull].

    We got 5hp on the small one and 4hp on the big one; let's finish this thing 8-) .

    Behold Thud's turn of Healing and Killing!

    Thud sees his valiant ally do down and vows, "Moradin take ye, ya blasted pile o' goo!" Thud winds up his craghammer again and slams it home! The divine radiance that previously suffused the heavy head of the hammer, transfered itself to Akarr's prone form. Moradin's blessing did its job, and the Dragonborn's eyes opened.

    Not wanted to leave his other friends in the lurch, Thud directs more of Moradin's healing energies towards Samhradh.


    Standard Action: Healing Strike vs. Large Ooze
    1d20+8 = 21 + 3 (Akarr) = 24 HIT!!! 2d10+7 = 23 DEAD!!!
    Akarr can spend a healing surge and gain an extra +3 (Healers Lore) HP

    Minor Action: Healing Word on Samhradh: Samhradh can spend a healing surge and regain an extra 1d6+3 = 7 Hit Points
    [strike]Minor Action: Healing Word on Aiedlar: Aiedlar can spend a healing surge and regain an extra 1d6+3 = 8 Hit Points
    [/strike] Thanks to Dac, I was reminded that Healing Word is once per round.

    Akarr gasps and sputters as he regains consciousness, spitting up some blood and wiping the excess from his snout with the back of his hand.

    Looking over at the bubbling pile of ooze where the large gelatinous beast once "stood", a toothy grin spread across Akarr's face.

    "About damn time" he groaned, as he strained to rise to his feet and take stock of the remaining ooze beasts. Still uneasy on his feet, Akarr did his best to stabilize himself and reached for his crossbow, taking aim and loosing a bolt at the nearest slimy fiend.

    Move Action: Stand up
    Minor Action: Reach for Repeating Crossbow
    Standard Action: Ranged Basic Attack on Ooze at K6


    Attack Roll: 1d20+3+1=9 vs AC, miss!

    Akarr curses under his breath as the bolt flies high and plinks off the cave wall harmlessly.

    Status: 14/37 HP

    Mindartis sweeps his orb around to the ooze reaching for Samhradh and slams it into the creature, burning away the last remnants of it and leaving it a puddle on the ground.
    Minor action: Sustain Orb
    Movement action: Move Sphere adjacent to the lower ooze.
    Standard action: Fiery Sphere to attack the ooze.

    Attack roll: 1d20+7 vs Reflex = 26. Hit!
    Damage roll: 2d6+5 = 9.

    The ooze goes down!

    In combat, you either have to Second Wind, which is a standard action for everyone but dwarves. This gives you your surge value in HP, plus 2 to all you defenses for a round. Leaders, like the lovely Thud or Akarr, have the ability to let you spend additional healing surges.

    Out of combat, you can spend healing surges all willy nilly if you like, but until an extended rest, what you have is what you have.

    You're going to eat an attack of opportunity if you attack the ooze from there Ryadic. But then since you can't shift you're going to eat one if you try to move away as well and given the Fort penalty you have at the moment it'll probably hit you.
