Plan ruined, what do.

Anyways, if he's just an elite we will surely fight something else with them.
We could not find anything else around, but that Sankis probably can summon some imps at least.

I thought somebody else was going to attack first?

Jeez, I was busy yesterday and today doing homework and studying, it's not like some unnamed player could have charged in earlier

>>8113
We can't attack Frog with our bursts AND hit Sankis so need know if still blowing dailies.

>>8115
I'm still a bit wary of blowing a ton of dailies considering Sankis is only an elite and the frog is a normal monster, really, but we have to act soon.

>>8116
If Rin had wanted that she wouldn't have nonsensically moved the Frog just to disrupt our planning - she was set to get us to use three dailies then.

>>8117
Fine, I'll just go ahead and have the encounter begin then.

I acted first. Time to cut loose everybloody.

>More creatures
I. Knew. It.

>all readied actions cancelled

>>8123
I had a feeling it was maybe going to happen anyway, considering Rin didn't really seem to mind what actions we took

>>8124
Prolly wouldn't have happened if you'd stunned the guy.

I think.

>Max initiative for Folka
flip.png

>>8127
Actually it wasn't max, but you do get a +2 from Bern~ So it was an 18.

>>8128
Oh, I wasn't sure if Bern had that to be honest, cause hybrid and all

worst initiative

There are two kinds of demons that you haven't checked, Jyoji. I need separate checks for the tentacle demon and the spirits of fire.

>teleporting controller with reach
omg stun it stun it stun it

>>8136
It's not like I can get in range like that with the way its reach is AND use my stun at the same time y'know.

>>8137
Does it matter whether or not you take an OA? Just attack it before it screws us over.

>>8138
Yes, it matters most likely. (Also sorry, will be busy a tad bit longer, but it's not like anon is here to take his turn anyway I think?) Also feel free to strike up more discussion, I don't mind. It does say in Rin's info that it can only teleport a small distance though (But I guess even that can make a difference with melee reach 3)

>>8139
hi

>>8139
This is assuming that it has threatening reach. Somebody please make a check to confirm.

>Just NOW REALIZED I took stealth
>Not religion for later Radiant Fist at paragon
>Forgot I even HAD stealth
well i know what i'm fixing after this

Okay... Does anybody have immobilization? Or forced movement? Or something that'll take out the controller-y tentacles?

>>8146
I can't even hit it. So, should I start with a good daily against that damn frog?

>>8148
Since that can take it out of the fight sooner, yes.

>>8146
I can immobilise it but teleportation ignores immobilisation.

I don't know if I said anything about this earlier, but since there was a skill challenge before the taskmaster encounter, that counts as passing a milestone. So you all have an action point now.

>>8151
Yess, I was right!

As much I would like to make my turn we probably need to take the control of the fight as quick as possible. Any ideas? I can reach anyone with move + charge I think.

>>8153
Burn daily and kill frog. Dead is the best form of control there is.

>>8154
Alright, I will try to kill it soon. Any help with to kill it will be apreciated.

>>8155
Or just take away their mobility somehow. Skirmishers hate that.

>>8156
Slow can be useful, they will probably try to rape me

>0 to bloodied in one attack

>>8159
Did I say 0 to bloodied? I meant 0 to very nearly dead in one attack.

Well if Bern could move me out of the flames I'd appreciate it. Roth, too.

>HotEC has Tome Expertise
>scaling bonus
>enemies adjacent to summons and conjurations grant combat advantage

>>8167

>>8167
>"So you can use Mage Hand to grant your allies combat advantage now?"

Wizard Attack 1 Watery Sphere

A single water droplet expands to overtake your enemies, trapping them inside an enormous watery sphere.

Daily Arcane, Implement, Transmutation, Zone
Standard Action Area burst 1 within 10 squares

Target: Each creature in the burst

Attack: Intelligence vs. Reflex

Hit: The target is immobilized and grants combat advantage (save ends both).

Miss: You must slide the target up to 3 squares to a square adjacent to the burst.

Effect: The burst creates a zone that lasts until the end of your next turn. The zone is difficult terrain, and it grants partial cover to creatures on opposite sides of it. You can use a move action to move the zone up to 3 squares. If you do so, any creatures immobilized by this power and in the zone slide up to 3 squares, staying inside the zone. When a creature enters the zone or starts its turn there, you can use an immediate reaction to make the attack against that creature.

Sustain Minor: The zone persists until the end of your next turn.

>>8170

What a villain-like technique.

Too bad it doesn't really do much damage.

>>8172
Some daily powers only have effects. That doesn't make them bad, though.

>>8173
Some encounter powers only have effects. That sometimes makes them very strong~

>>8174
Mass Charm is broken good.

Did I mention I'm not getting that?

>>8176
I think so, yes.

Why did they scrap Rituals from Essentials anyway?

HotEC where, progression wherreee

Yeah, I wanna see new Sorc spells, gonna see if Bern's Double Dagger Sorceror idea is even better with HotEC.

Do please try to take your turn today, Voyager~

OK everyone become Ironwrought.

>>8194
Looks like elementalist doesn't get to knife channel.

Speaker of Xaos paragon path is pretty neat: increase your burst/blast by 1 (ON A DAILY), or add 1 to the number of targets. Swordmage Shielding Fire on 2 enemies. GG.

>>8195
OK wait, it can use knives. Probably something wrong with the file maybe. Looks like Elementalist better optimised to knife-ganking enemies: elemental escalation adds damage to your at-will power, and fire elementalist adds 1d6 to the damage, so you get your curse damage on top of the boost Sorcs already get. That's pretty crazy.

1d10+14 damage on a level 7 with elemental bolts (RBAs!), +1d6 from Fire Elementalist, +1d10 and 1 more target from Escalation (usable only once per round but up to thrice per encounter at level 13).

>>8194
When i launched CB, those were added automatically. MONK WHERE THOUGH

>>8198
>Some of those Elemental Initiate powers
whoa what

Statted out a tiefling fire elementalist, level 11:

1 Weapon of Speed +2
1 Weapon of Speed +1
Speaker of Xaos Paragon Path
Bracers of Perfect Shot (heroic tier)

1d12+23 damage per elemental bolt, add 1d10+12 damage for Elemental Escalation, you can use Escalation once per turn, but you can fire off three bolts on your first turn. Attack roll of +16 against Reflex.

Add +1 damage against bloodied, add +1 attack against elementals. Reduce fire resistance by 5 on enemies who have resistance after you hit. Spend an AP to target one more enemy with your attack, and Elemental Escalation lets you do this as well.

Total of going nova on turn 1 and hitting with all attacks:

1 enemy hit for 1d12+23+1d6;1d12+22+1d6;1d10+12;1d12+23+1d6;1d12+23+1d6 damage. (Dicetool'd for 114 damage, which'd nearly bloody Cornelis in one turn, and subtracting 1d12+23+1d6, this can be done every encounter)
1 enemy hit for 1d12+23+1d6;1d10+12;1d12+23+1d6 damage.

Fire Elementalists are crazy. brb reroll

Proposed actions:

Folka can keep engaging Sankis. Move away to safer ground on your turn in any case. Avoid the fire, it hurts. If you can move 9 to flank the tentacle demon it might be expedient to daze it.

Sureiya should charge the tentacle demon to get out of the whirlpool. Hit hard if you can and prepare to disruptive strike the tentacles monster; I'm worried about its thrash attack.

Torinn can do whatever. Stick to Sankis or something. We'll deal with the rest.

>>8204
Revision:
Spent AP to Prone the Tentacle Demon. Folka spent his encounter daze to daze the Tentacle Demon.

Torinn faces down Sankis alone until we deal with the rest. Priority: tentacle demon, frog demon, Sankis, spirits; tentacle demon because it's the controller, frog because annoying zone, Sankis because elite. Spirits are least priority because damaging zone, and Myn + Bernkastel tagteam can keep them immobilised indefinitely so long as Myn keeps hitting, until they die. This seems the best plan to me to minimise the threat to us.

Slide 3 through orb expertise, slow means if I take World Serpent Grasp I can at-will Prone with one feat investment. Is this actually useful over Beguiling Strands/Winged Horde?

btw, riri found a hotec part (not official/finished yet) which includes the other powers and feats not added yet, just make sure you delete the part when the real thing comes out

Rin I think Astaroth attacked Sankis with battle pounce. Astaroth did you add Bern's tactical assault?

Also, apparently 408 Treasures article includes a wand that powers up Winged Horde and gives it fire elemental damage.

Now if I had eladrin sword wizardry I could treat my longsword as a wand... as-is, I don't think I'll take that wand.

omg monk in cbloader when, the new elemental monk is really neat.

Hinting at more Monk traditions or something at the end of the monk section in the pdf?

Current plan, feel free to object:

Myn abstains from getting the darkspiral aura bonus, instead spreads his curse. This re-curses the bloodied flame spirit.

On his turn, Myn eldritch blasts the bloodied flame spirit and deals cold damage, taking care not to do 30 damage; that should not kill the flame spirit. We don't want that yet since we'd get caught in the explosion.

Myn then moves one square closer to Sankis and uses a Minor to curse him.

Bernkastel uses spirit infusion or her primordial to grant Myn an attack against the unbloodied flame spirit, which should let Myn deal cold damage again and immobilise it. Both flame spirits are now out of the picture.

Probably, Bern'll want to evac the zone.

On my turn I'll apply Winged Horde to Sankis to prevent his OAs and move away from the flame spirits. If one is wounded enough I can be convinced to Winged Horde or Grasping it so it explodes and dies.

Folka should re-engage Sankis, while Sureiya can opt to finish the frog, make a ranged attack against the flame spirits or attack Sankis, at his own discretion or to be determined when his turn comes.

This should reinforce Torinn in time and make Sankis the only thing really threatening our party, as immobilised flame spirits pose no threat to us. (provided Rin doesn't cheese up and make them ready actions to circumvent us immobilising them)

Counter-plans? Post them, etc.

>>8236
learn to read nub, riri linked one that requires register and one that doesn't (but website is in russian)

>>8237
Sorry, tired, crummy day, etc.

I kinda want to finish the frog, because if it moves into a good position and it uses that whirpool again it can mess it quite badly.

>>8235
Nvm my deleted post. Everything looks good etc.

Stop delete your posts fffffffffffffffff

>>8240
That's why at your discretion etc. The quarry bonus and all would be useful to move to Sankis too, but idk if you can just do that or need to end your previous quarry first by way of gruesome murder.

>>8244
Uggh, I can deal some nice damage to that damn sankis with twin strike + offhand if he stay near a vengeful.

>>8245
Well I can Grasping Shadows the Frog and its movement will be 2. It's not attacking us anytime soon then.

>>8235
Revision of plan. I'll Grasping Shadows the Frog so it cannot approach us unless it runs. (lol) This includes its zone not reaching anyone.

Sureiya should then be able to use the archon standing over Sankis to power his assault! I think this is honestly the best option for everyone, given the rest of the monsters are mostly harmless now.

>>8249
If we're lucky, the shadows could kill the frog too.

>>8249
Yeah, it's quite distant, with some attacks it should be get bloodied and we will probably see Sankis real power.

Ignore where it says Folka's turn, it's actually Sariel's turn.

OK so. Winged Horde on Sankis sounds mighty attractive cuz Myn is adjacent him and would be able to attack Ranged no probs; this'd leave frog unattended.

Thoughts?

>>8259

Yup sounds good ne.

>>8259
Sounds good, my only request is for Folka to slide Sankis toward me.

Right, Folka can slide. I'll Grasping the frog unless objections.

>>8262
Can he slide even in a miss?

oh right, dont consider sureiya having ranged attacks right now, I'm not using farbond right now

>>8263
They're immobilised, the both of them. Sariel stands clear and then we let them explode on George/Bern's next turn combi.

I CAN hit both of them with Grasping Shadows, but that doesn't stop 'em much if they decide to ready actions to make immobilise useless.

We can't quite fire on them now, especially since only two ranged attackers, so we'll have to rely on killing Sankis in a timely fashion.
