Sweet update JD. This was a quickie 5 hr gaming session.
Vermirox: Casts Ray of Enfeeblement for 8 pts of Str dmg, knocking Faust to 0 (helpless)
Faust: As long as mind is intact can manifest psionics
1. Maximized, Augmented, Overchanneled Energy Ray, Fire = 128 pts
2. Anticipatory Strike = Acts again in the same round
3. Maximized, Augmented Energy Ray, Fire = 104 hp
Total dmg from "helpless" Psion = 232 hp
Vermirox: "Biznitch you later, skater!"
But this one hurt . . .
Nat 1 on Reflex Save means that your items save or be destroyed. Mak pretty much lost everything (~140K gp worth of items all told). Ouch.
Fortunately, we found a solution of sorts to this problem.
JollyDoc said:As it struck, the psion felt all of his strength leave him, and he collapsed to the ground, unable to even support his own body weight. Faust knew exactly what had befallen him, but he was helpless to do anything about it. Fortunately, he did not need to use his hands or speak words to kill. His mind was still fully functional. A ray of fire lanced out from the center of his brow to strike the blue dragon. Then Faust did something truly amazing. Concentrating, he peered a few moments into the future, enabling him to anticipate Vermirox’s next move. In so doing, he was able to strike preemptively, bombing the wyrm with a second ball of volcanic fire. They didn’t call him Holocaust for nothing.

. . . but the goliath took the full brunt of the attack. As he jittered and shivered from the jolt, his skin began to scorch, and most of his clothing, magical and mundane, as well as his rings and headgear erupted into flames, or simply melted into slag. As the storm passed, the smoking giant sank to his knees.
