[D&D 4E PbP] Dragon Slayers: OOC Thread

Kay

Okay, my current plan is to use my Immediate Reaction teleport to get to U7, kill the spider at U6, and push the one at U8 to T11 and knock it prone, so the four of them are grouped up for either Estir, Evanche or Kothargix to blast with a burst.

Alternately I could Immediate Reaction teleport to S9, Fey Step to N6, and start wailing on Vestapalk, leaving the minions for you immobilised sorts.

Does anyone have any preference? Either are good for me, though I might start getting utterly shitbeat if I hop up there to face the dragon alone. I COULD try to push him off that platform, but he gets to save and probably has a massive bonus to save. I think if I use my teleport strike to pluck him from that platform and dump him nearer you guys, it might be possible without him getting a save versus the movement, if I teleport him to the ground? I could teleport him adjacent to Estir or Amon'kul if the spiders weren't there, or put him in position for a mondo burst from the monk. I think that teleporting the dragon down to you guys would actually be a Really Smart Move (though he won't be prone or suchlike).

Grog, could I teleport him to the ground without needing a save, as opposed to teleporting him over the spiders and letting him drop on them, which would allow him a save, and thus probably fail.

I also plan on GROWING WINGS this encounter, and start regenerating/flying around.

Aegis

I am going to have issues getting up top. I can't really do anything about the spiders directly, although I'm considering just dazing everything in the room so that I can slow the dragon down for 1 turn. The upside of this is that I'll do automatic damage for the rest of the encounter which will pop spiders that attack me.

Aegis

On second thought, I am not going to have issues with height this encounter after remembering I bought an Elixir of Levitation for this very purpose.

Kay

Well, knocking the dragon off the plinth via teleportation or just RAW ELADRIN POWER would solve that problem regardless.

Nealneal

I'm going to use my boots to join that ugly green bastard up there in a round or so if we doesn't find his way down to us before then.

Grog

Woops, forgot to update statblock positions. Should be correct now.

Teleporting him down to the ground won't warrant a saving throw, since it's not hazardous.

Well it is hazardous (there are some mean slayers down there) but not directly.

Aegis

What if she teleports him into the ground? That'd be a saving throw vs suffocation, yes?

Kay

Now I'm weighing the risk/reward of the cool 'teleport the dragon above the spiders and have him squish them on impact' versus the economical sure-thing 'teleport the dragon gently onto the ground, and let the burst dudes kill the spiders while also hurting the dragon'.

I'll post my turn after lunch, but it looks like I'll teleport up there, and teleport the dragon down, nice and gentle.

Yup, you got em out of Bitterstrike's belly.

Whoops. Missed that whole post. Playing catch up here. Will post this afternoon.

Kay

Okay, think I included everything there!

Welcome to the party. Burst to your heart's content!

Steelhawk

@Grog,

I didn't mention it last encounter because it never came up, but Kothargix is wearing a Viper Belt, so I resist 5 poison. Now to catch up on everything else that happened.

Also, my 12th level sheet is updated on Orokos.

Grog

Cool, I'll post an updated statblock anon.

Also I'm assuming that Infernal Wrath was directed at the spider that webbed you Aegis. Since I just rolled them all at once I've randomly selected that the one in U6 did it.
Well done, you've saved Estir another 10 hp.

Nealneal

Is there a spider in U10? It says so in the stat block, but it's not there on the map. Inquiring Tieflings NEED to know.

Grog

As a rule map takes precedent, mostly because I'm a forgetful ninny.

So no, no spider in U10.

Nealneal

Got it.

Majestic Goat

Just remember guys, any item daily power you use will grant you 13 temp. HP.

Interruption saves Estir 30hp! Go team Interrupters!

Grog

Cripes, and he isn't bloodied. That shocking feedback is pretty awesome against multiple attacks.

Wassermelone

Jees, yeah that was awesome. I think Ill save my interrupt for the next time this Dragon blasts us.

Kay

I am sorry if I kind of circumvented that awesome spiral-staircase interesting terrain design, Grog.

But dragons must be slain. It is known.

Grog

Oh I've still got some tricks up my sleeve.

Kay

I don't like the sound of that.

I really like the sound of that.

Majestic Goat

That's a superb position you moved in Amon'Kul, SUPERB

Durr, can't slide it into Estir's melee range :evil:

Kay

He has a couple of bursts, and full-discipline attacks that teleport him. Estir'll be fiiiiine.

Majestic Goat

Apparently I can't roll shit to save my own skin

Kay

I'm pretty sure you can only use one Healing Infusion per turn, too. Even if they're free actions?

Edit: Wait, that was only one infusion. You only roll once for damage on AoE powers, though. You can use the Orokos code to roll all your to-hit rolls in one go, though. 4#1d20+19, I think? Rolls 1d20 4 times, adds 19 to each, and records the results seperately.

Majestic Goat

Ahh that's much easier to handle the roll, thanks.
I figure they are just minion so I just roll for massive damage :P

Nealneal

@steelhawk- Kothargix should have reduced old gassy pants to 389 hit points.

EDIT: Nevermind, I see that you quoted the status from Grog now.

Wassermelone

I incorporated Korthargix' damage along with mine. I think it should be correct now.

Steelhawk

Whoops. Yeah, I had started my post quoting Grog then other people took thier turns and finished and posted my turn. I should have cut and pasted a later stat block. Thanks.

@Wassermelone ; You incorporated the dragons stats but missed Kothargix's. My stat block should read as:

Kothargix (X6)- 9+61/76hp; AC 23; F 20, R 19, W 24: [AP 1; Surges 10/10] Status: Resist lightning 15, Resist 5 poison, immobilised (eont)

Aegis

So all but 1 spider is now dead?

Nealneal

I think the three on the stairs are still alive, but none are near us now.

Grog

There's 3 left and they're in G8, H11, N13.

All the ones in your face have been dealt with.

Aegis

Man how do we not have a reliable CA generator out of 6 of us. This is killing my rolls.

Wassermelone

Updated your stat block on mine @Steelhawk

Wassermelone

We do - Alenthian prones which grants CA to melee....


....

Aegis

There, I dazed the dragon. So now it has to waste its instinctive action to undaze itself and/or just undaze itself at the end of its turn.

Grog

Instinctive is a free action! Mwahahaha.

Oh shit he's immobilised.

Aegis

Yes, I thought the Daze + Immobilized would be rather nice at this point.

I mean, my other option was to Slow him but that'd be redundant.

Kay

I'm good at inflicting Dazed plus Prone. Prozed.

Grog

Rolled your Guardian's Counter for you Neal, thought I'd save time. Vestapalk just took 42 damage on his own damn turn.
