It lets me exchange places with you and take the hit. I get to make a melee basic against the attacker, but we already know it won't hit since I pre-rolled it. It does let me take the swing though.

Oh right the theme power, yea it's nice. I wanted to move this round too and I looked around and saw difficult terrain everywhere and just sighed.
Ugh...difficult terrain. I was thinking the power slid the targets, but I just checked to make sure and it allows them to shift.
Trigger: An ally within 2 squares of you is hit by an attack and you are not included in the attack.
Effect: You and the ally shift up to 2 squares as a free action, swapping positions. You become the target of the triggering attack, in place of the ally. After the attack is resolved, you can make a basic attack against the attacker.
It does say "up to" though so it should still trigger. Amon'kul will become the target and get a melee basic, but they don't get to switch places.

Unfortunately you can't use guardian's counter (it still specifies swapping positions) but it'll still trigger your combat challenge, since she's adjacent.

Evanche shifts to H7, Amon to G7. They're not switching positions, though. Is that something that needs to be done for the power to work?

Got it. Swinging now, unless you want me to use the Opportunity Attack roll from last turn in it's place, which is a miss and we can just keep things moving along.

21 cold damage on a miss?
Or is that 11 and resistances were forgotten? I need some resistances on Alénthian. Resistances are boss.

Derp, forgot resistances. Yeah it's just 1 damage.

Nah roll em, your mba's have different modifiers anyway.

My Dragon Soul class power gives me resistance to Lightning, my 11th level paragon path power Breath of the Dragon does whatever damage type my resitance would be: Lightning. Fine and dandy.
However, I have used another power Elemental Shift (and likely will for this whole game) to change the resitance of my Dragon Soul from Lightning to whatever other damage type I want for the rest of the encounter. In this case Cold damage.
Does that mean my Breath of the Dragon power now does Cold damage for the rest of this encounter? I wouldn't think so, but I figured I'd ask anyway.

Hmm. Having read the powers, I'd say it does change the damage type to cold. But bear in mind that you ignore resistance up to whatever your Dragon Soul resistance is, and since it's now Resist Cold you ignore 15 points of cold resistance.
I know! Thats why its awesome. Whatever flavour of dragon we meet, Kothargix can adapt his resistance to it. The power seems tailor made to just this situation. Yay!
Sadly however, it also makes my Paragon power much, much less effective against that same flavour of dragon.
Oh well.

But that's what I'm saying, even though you're doing cold damage against Bitterstrike you'll be ignoring her cold resistance. No less effective than any other damage you could do.
Gah! You're right! I ignore her resistance up to 15 points! I missed that in my reading of the class feature, and then misread your post to my initial question! Nevermind then, all of the awesome is back where its supposed to be!

So, who gets the flaming weapon buff? I'm on my phone, so switching between the map and statblock is troublesome.
Also, that little kobold is going to chew dragons up good.
I'm trying to fit working in my 20th level character and my wish list in between working and screwing the pooch at work. Unfortunately, work is winnng. But I haven't forgotten!

I already cast my only fire attack and it doesn't roll damage
I was expecting more fiery death from the infernal princess :oops:
I think I get more fire attacks as I level up, I can't remember (note to self: post that level 20 sheet Grog asked for).
My theme power gives me 2 fire attacks an encounter, though they're mostly filler stuff and I haven't been bloodied to let me use it a second time yet.

Edit: Make that G9. Only just read Nealneal's post, don't wanna negate his defense bonuses unduly.
On the upside this means she was also in the rockfall. God damn the rocks have done more damage than the dragon.
Remember you can guys roll dungeoneering to predict where the next rock'll fall.
Moved him to G9 instead, so you've still got the bonuses.
So I didn't bother. All I can do is hit stuff and bemoan the lack of appreciation something has for ART.

Now I get it! Our final boss will be the Dragonhalls!
Big Iron is trained in Dungeoneering but still need a 20 to beat DC31
Again, fail at statblock reading. Evanche was adjacent to me while I cast greater magic weapon. the +4 bonus to att and dmg applies to her too.
If the minor action is available anyway, why not try for a natural 20?
Oh, and suck it Dragon.

Also, shouldn't Bitterstrike have taken 7 more fire when she started her turn adjacent to the Estir?

Evanche and Estir.
Ah crap, I was thinking that anyone who's attacking within 2 squares gains the bonus.
It the wording kinda sounds like that.
