4e Combat Playtest [FULL]

Ata, did you assess the Goristro's penalties for attacking an opponent other than the one who marked him. If he attacks anyone besides Sharm (and you posted that he attacked Senara) then he takes a -2 penalty to his attack. (Not that much, Senara, but every little bit helps!)

(Or was Sharm's mark superseded by another mark?)

Yes, the Goristro had a penalty of -6 on the first attack (the immediate reaction vs Sharm) and -4 on the four regular attacks, -2 from the mark, -2 from phantasmal assailants, already included.

 

[Victim]

Shield can save the day with all of those attack penalties.

IIRC, you can't play immediate actions on your own turn, so Sharm shouldn't be getting attacked via its counterstrike power.

Ok, sorry, just checking. Sharm is just a bit amazed that the Goristro has the balls to attack anyone but him! And it really pisses him off, too!

Victim: Thanks for trying to save Sharm some hp! (hope it works...)

 

[Annalist]

So uhh, Senara didn't get hit then? Just wondering for my next post.

 

[Atanatotatos]

Ohhh... no immediates, right...I keep forgetting these things... well, it changes nothing, since the first attack is a miss anyway (so the additional -2 is no good). The round goes the same, Annalist. Senara's at 14 hp.

Leof: if you want to move Sharm you should specify the square, it's relevant.

 

[Leif]

Yeah, it probably is relevant. But to name a square, I have to look at a map first! I'll go do that now.

It's done and the post is edited. (J13)

Umm, the Shield spell should be preventing a lot of that damage, right?

 

[Atanatotatos]

Aw,Aw, you're using shield! Sorry, didn't get that. Yes, I think Senara would only get hit once (the crit). Let me check on that.
On the other hand, I doubt I'd have used that action point with the Shield on.


Oh, there it is. I had missed the IC post. Sorry
Right, 24 dmg instead of 28 on the crit if I'm not mistaken. So Senara's at 55. Oh well...

 

[Leif]

Good news guys! We should have the Goristro down to just under 100 hp remaining! So all we have to do is all stay alive for three or four more rounds of this!
