(5.24 PBP) Vault Redux (OOC) Fitz's Refresher

[FitzTheRuke]

it's always weird to play when your character can't see anything but the player can. I know technically, I could attack Valendra (she'd within reach) but it seems unsafe to attack while my ally is grappling her - besides, how do I target the right person in the dark???

Yeah, I was describing the scene to my wife this morning - flailing about with a polearm might have a good chance of hitting someone, but really, in a crowd in the dark, while your target is being carried or dragged? Seems tricky.

 

[Lidgar]

This is where, as a DM, I'd be really tempted to pull out the old percentile dice should the PC decide to attack....

 

[TaranTheWanderer]

Hit her!

It’s hard to know if you’re serious. The min/maxer in me wanted to attack. Story-wise, even if Urgan is letting Merrick know where she is, it’s not like he’s wielding a precision weapon.

Use your free hand next round to cast light. Then we are in business.

 

[MetaVoid]

DO NOT turn the light on. You just stay where you are, Urgan and Torhak have great advantage now, kobolds can retreat, you lot take cover and until someone makes the light, we're making a killing.

Spoken like a dwarf with 180ft darkvision.

I still mean to get our pace back to something a little more consistent. Please, all of you, do your best to help me. Again, I'd be happy with updates more like twice a week, rather than the (if we're lucky) once a week that we've been seeing.

Hey, I was thinking, it would probably help if all the three groups found a way to get back together. It's certainly more work for you to manage 3 stories. I think the path is pretty clear for team Lake, and I'd be fine with that. Just saying.
Cheers,

Team lake and team infiltrate are right next to each other. I have no idea where team caves is in relation but there’s a teleporter here and we might be able to get a layout from our prisoners

 

[Lidgar]

Well, there's the door being guarded by the Hydra...unless that leads to an area one of the other groups have explored?

So I say we become one big party. Much more manageable for all. And this means I'll need to start reading all posts ;-)
At the very least, lets merge teams lake and infiltrate.
