[QUOTE="Dolza, post: 2185055, member: 16071"] [b]Beaten but not creamed[/b] So we had the big fight last friday. Before being taken out of the fight completely by an air elemental, the chasme held the party off long enough for the BBEG to buff himself with plenty of spells and prepare for the party. The combonation of a blasphemy or two and a blade barrier worked quite well on the party. Killed two before the dust finally settled. of course only one stayed dead thanks to the Spirit Shaman's ability to recall a spirit. None the less i felt like things worked out well. I gave the party a run for their money and didn't even have to do anything too underhanded. Thanks for the tips last week you guys were really a help to me. I used the umber hulks listed in the adventure instead of opting for something different/harder like vrocks. For fairness issues, i lowered the number to 4 instead of 6. By the time they had gotten to this fight i had pretty much tapped them for spells across the board and anything more than those three hulks would have been that "wafer thin mint" that the party simply could not eat with out inducing a TPK. Next time, they have to make it back to the city and fight the really big bad evil thing to cap off the adventure and save the city! Fortunately for me they think things are over and now they can sit back and count treasure. surprise! dolza [/QUOTE]
