[Adventure]: Stormcrow Tor (Judge: THB)

Not open for further replies.
As Narvala shoot, a wraith appears behind her and attack her. She feels her life force drain and her bolt of holy light seems to hit the otehr Wraith with less strength.

Gruff pull the other Wraith to them.

Seeing the undead have more interest by the intruder than them, they decide to get out of hiding and attack the two how are in the room.

Narvala receives a dagger deep in the chest, which hurt her badly. The Kenku sneka back behind his sarcophagus, but not before he receives Sweetness dagger in his throwing arm.

The other kenku throw a dagger at Gruff but miss. But in that attempt, he didn't revealed his location.

The two tribals come out too and attack Gruff. One hit him and too proud of his hit, is unable to quickly find another hiding place. The other was too scared and miss Gruff but quickly find a new hiding place.

The Wraith next fighting Gruff hit him, and he also feels his life drained away by the creature.

Narvala, concentrated to evade further arm, easily dodge the next attack against the Wraith.

Unnoticed, the invisible specters move through the walls. The become visible as they attack the group with a spectral blast. Arkavas and Gogmorthak are both hit by the first specter. Radtash quickly replies to him with a bolt of light that hit him. The specter ignore the pain and take the occasion to attack back the Kalashtar, who is wounded by the specter. Arkavas is warded by the light of Arkavas prayer.

The other specter appears next to Sweetness and tries the same trick, but only Arkavas is hit by the blast and the specter cannot even pierce through the warded light surrounding him.

[SBLOCK=OOC]Map Updated

Wraith have an AoO for using a ranged attack in his face: AoO on Narvala vs. Refl (1d20+8=26, 1d6+4=10) Hit and weakened. That means Narvala did only 3 damages [(10+5(Vulnerable))/ 2(weak)] / 2 (Insubstantial) = 3 damages.

Tinwe, I give the stats exactly so you can see that a 12 wouldn't hit, but a 14 hit against Fortitude. So hit and pull to you.

Sneak1 on Narvala vs AC., Hide (1d20+9=22, 3d4+10=14, 1d20+11=21) Hit! And he is back into hiding.

Readied action: Disheartning Strike vs Sneak1 (1d20+12=30, 1d6+4=9) Hit.

Sneak on Gruff vs AC., Hide (1d20+9=12, 3d4+10=17, 1d20+11=17) Miss. As he miss, his position is not revealed.

Tribals on Gruff vs. AC, Hide (1d20+8=11, 1d20+8=21, 1d20+9=23, 1d20+9=17) One hit, one miss, and only one can go back into hiding.

Wraith2 vs Gruff vs Refl (1d20+7=17, 1d6+4=10) Barely hit. 10 necrotic Damage on Gruff is weakened.

Wraith1 vs Nervala vs Refl (1d20+7=17, 1d6+4=7) Miss.

Spectral Barrage vs Gog, Sweetness, Radtash, Arkavas vs Will (1d20+7=23, 1d20+7=14, 1d20+7=20, 1d20+7=23, 2d6+2=9) Hit Arkavas and Gog. Miss Radtash because of his Bastion of Mental Clarity. Simply miss Sweetness. Arkavas and Gog take 9 psychic damage and are prone.

As the Specter appear, Radtash hit the specter, but the specter get an AoO: AoO form Specter vs Radtash vs Refl (1d20+7=17, 1d6+2=6) Hit for 6 necrotic damage.

Spectral Barrage vs Gog, Sweetness, Radtash, Arkavas vs Will (1d20+7=26, 1d20+7=13, 1d20+7=16, 1d20+7=17, 2d6+2=4) Only Arkavas is hit that time, for 4 psychic damage. He is already prone.

Lots of action. Impact, if you want to not do your readied action because of the AoO, you can remove it, but considering you did 7 damages (after insubstancial) and you gave 6 THP (which are almost gone), I thought it was a good trade to take the risk.[/SBLOCK]

I don't think the damage from wraiths being vulnerable 5 radiant should be reduced due to the insubstantial property or Narvala being weakened. That seems counter-intuitive, given how the vulnerable property works.

And yes, I forgot about placing the wraith next to the Caustic Rampart.

[SBLOCK=OOC]I asked myself the question before I write that last post, and here what I found in the compendium:

Weakened
Your attacks deal half damage. Ongoing damage you deal is not affected.

Insubstantial
When a creature is insubstantial, it takes half damage from any damage source, including ongoing damage. Some creatures are inherently insubstantial, which is noted in their “Resist” entries. See also half damage.

Half damage
When a power or another effect deals half damage, apply all modifiers to the damage, including resistances and vulnerabilities, and then divide the damage in half.

So, RAW, it is that. I agree that it is not the most intuitive way to put it. I would have half damage of your power because of weakened and then half damage received because of the insubstantial ability. I start to find those Wraith pretty nasty.[/SBLOCK]
 

Gruff calls out "Right then! Back to plan A!"
He lands a solid hit on the wraith before disappearing and reappearing on the other side of the acidic fog. He strikes down the kenku that wounded him, then runs back into the hall to defend his fellows against the specter.

[sblock=mechanics]

Standard: Dual Lightning Strike on Wraith: vs. AC (1d20+9=28, 1d8+5=8), Marked
Teleport to E6
Secondary attack: Repeat attack on Kenku: vs. AC (1d20+9=27, 1d8+5=12), Marked

Move: J6 (unless I see more targets; let me know if I do and I might revise)

Minor: Aegis Specter

Specter is marked, taking -3 to all attacks that do not include Gruff until Gruff marks another target with Aegis.

South wraith is marked until EoNT, taking -3 to all attacks that do not include Gruff. Gruff will pull this target adjacent if it makes an attack that does not include him. If he does so, it will grant CA until its EoNT.

Gruff attempts save vs Weakened: save (1d20=20)

Too bad that wasn't an attack. :P

[SBLOCK="pathfinderq1"]Could you please shift Sweetness to another square? I would like to shift Radtash into L6 to get away from the Specter at N5.[/SBLOCK]
 

"Stupid dead thing! Yep yep yep," Sweetness snarled, dancing nimbly forward into the room. She paused, taking stock of the situation there and keeping her dagger ready for another throw... Between the darkness and the swirling wall of acidic gases, there were no kenku to be seen, so she threw the dagger into the nearer of the two spectral beings...

OOC:
Move: using Tumble utility power to shift three squares to I 6
Minor: Perception roll, 1d20+4= 8 (no kenku spotted, I guess)
Standard: Using another Disheartening Strike throw (at south specter if no kenku visible); +12 vs. AC= 22 (hit); damage 1d4+6= 7 (3 with insubstantial); rolls Roll Lookup
 

[sblock=Impact] Moving to L6 will only slide you up next to the wraith at K7. Not too good. I've got a better idea. [/sblock]

"Buggeroff! Git!"

[sblock=Actions]

Minor: Curative Admixture
Target: Self (Odd. I should be using this on others, but it seems that I'm always the one about to die).
Effect: +13HP (Total at 27 for now:erm:)

Standard: Thundering Armor
Primary Target: Radtash
Secondary Target: Wraith at N5
Attack: 1d20+8=25 vs. Fort. Hit!
Damage: 1d8+7=11 halved rounded down = 5
Effect: Wraith is pushed to O5, Radtash gets +1 to AC

Minor: stow staff and crossbow / draw fullblade

BTW: The caustic abomination is now no more. The gloves are off. It's killing time!

OK, Impact. I gave you some breathing room.

Having put herself in a rather difficult position, Narvala steps back and gathers her resolve, then looks to see if there was anything else she missed in this tangle.

[sblock=ooc]
Move: Shift to I4
Standard: use her second wind (regain 9 HP, +2 to all defenses until EONT, lose one surge)
Minor: Perception check.

perception check; saving throw (1d20+7=22, 1d20=20) may have spotted something (22 perception); made succeed (20 on saveing throw).

Erekose, sorry, but that's an invalid move. Charge has to be in a straight line, to the nearest square from which you can attack.
