Phoenix Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Don't think I can finish setting up and get the actual battle opener post written tonight (caffeine's not working) but I'll finish what I can before I crash and try again tomorrow lol. Won't be on IRC or skype tonight so sorry for any inconvenience there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercakete Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Ah, so she's not just a powerful NPC! (Regarding Lysandra.) How exciting. :) You don't often see older women in adventurous groups like this. Personally, I think it's fun and refreshing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nanami Touko Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 As long as she's not snapping whips while teaching the whippersnaps it's all good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phoenix Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 A small change I'm making to battle flow I mentioned before. Instead of withdrawing if left alone for too long, the wave 1 mooks will just become a part of wave 2. That makes more sense than them booking it right when the boss shows up.

Phoenix Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 One more change I'm considering since it'll simplify calcing the average a bit. If you want you can form teams right at the start of the battle, but the same rules will apply to wave 1, that being that once you attack a target, you're locked to them and vice versa until someone's down. If someone else in the combat team attacked a different target, neither of them could defend/heal each other until one of them was free. If you guys prefer it that way then go ahead and submit your teams and I'll update that listing. Blarg, I hate being tired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scorri Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Ok! Here's the general idea of the plan right now, if you have any ideas or suggestions for how it can be better, please just mention it in here~ Nika poke Warlock A (17 min damage, needs autohit to be hit, can use astra but might be better to save for a general)*Lysandra defends Axel*Axel pokes Warlock B (10 damage min, plus Lys counterspell, plus 6 damage min from defend)Reign pokes a General (8+dicex2, gen needs a 3+ to hit him)*Ari can smack an SM with swordreaver (autos, does 9+dice, takes dice)Thany/Kenta are on cleanup duty as neededUri heals or wards Ari (depends on result of Nika/Axel attacks) * means can move whenever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snike Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Gen A dies to counterspell so Kenta and Thany are free to target whoever else, preferably an SM (B/D) or the other Generals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercakete Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Dang. Reign's one fight sure had a lot of back-and-forth. :) It's nice to see that sort of combat when it happens -- much more exciting than oneshots, imo. (Speaking as a spectator, atm, not that my opinion's really any different when I'm the one in [gaming] combat, heheh.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenix Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 My brain pictured it as a slap fight, but that doesn't work in flavor. Too tired for flavor so leaving it as is for now lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercakete Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 XD Man, that'd just be comedy if it was a slap fight, especially if it had some sort of lead up to it to indicate it was going to be serious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorri Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Ok Thany. First off, since you're attacking the swordmaster, that's actually his roll. He has vantage which means her his first. The good news is he doesn't double you so his only attack didn't hurt a lot. So you'll need to then roll again for your attack. You need to do all the calculations as well, so keep that in mind. If you're attacking with your lance (smart choice) you'll get +2 to your hit so you'll need a 4+ on the hit roll to hit. Plus you'll have a possible +1 to you skill roll to help modify to get a crit or autohit if needed. You have 6 def so you take 3 damage off that roll. And then you have 6 base mt, so you do 2+dice if you hit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thany Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 (edited) i see. good thing your here to help incase i mess up from not having much action in a long time. i just wish i remembered how the rolls worked in general again.

scorri Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Ok! I can help there too. So on general, without skills, we deal with only pp stuff. There you roll your attack (3d6, hit die, damage die, modifier die) and then the enemy attack then any double that happens. Hit is base hit + hit die- evd. If that's zero or greater it's a hit. If the modifier die matches the hit die it's an auto hit. Damage is base damage + damage die - def or res. If modifier die and damage die match it's a crit which is ×2 damage. If all three match it's a lethal and you can choose an auto hit or ×3 damage. Since you have killer lance, you get +1 to your modifier so you can make your modifier die go from a 1 to a 2, etc. This can help you hit or crit. But you can only add one not subtract. You also have your class skill but it doesn't apply yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorri Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 (edited) Err really quick. You only do 8 damage. 6-4+6=8. Having wta for physical weapons only gives a boost to hit not damage. Also typically to make it easier, we will spoiler combat stuff and separate it from flavor. So flavor might be that Thany took a glancing blow on her arm but managed to get in a solid strike on her opponent and then in the spoiler you would give specifics about damage. That helps keep numbers that aren't relevant to IC separate so there's less weirdness that way Edited September 9, 2016 by scorri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thany Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 (edited) truth be told.... i've never used spoiler on a fourm before. so i have no idea how that works. but thats for telling me a better way to be discribing the combat. and i only assumed i added 2 to my attack when you said 2+dice to hit.
