Can Dextyr Keep All These Strikers Alive? (DM: JoeNotCharles, Ozymandias79 Judging)

[Lord Sessadore]

[sblock=OOC]I like Ken's plan. If Dex can manage to down the hob before Blade's turn, Blade can concentrate on the swarm with a clear conscience, since he's Oathed it. It would be very nice to have one enemy down before their next turn so we have less incoming damage. [/sblock]

Well as we know, Dex is known for his huge damage output........
The only chance I might have is to move around the horse and beside Tonk and then do a Guiding Strike vs Hobby, but that only deals 1d8+4 damage, so I won't be able to down him with that.
I could blow my daily against him, but that is a real waste.
I will weaken him down a bit more and then hope that Tonk can down him next turn.
Blade needs to kill that swarm, and he is the best one to do it with his Bond of retribution.

Seeing that Tonk is in a bad way, Dextyr throws caution to the wind and rushes over to help him, taking a hit from the warhorse on the way.

"Hope you don't mind if I join in, Punch Brother. Lets take out this trash and then lend Tristan a hand. We can't let him have all the fun over there by himself.."

Longsword in hand, Dextyr takes a swing at the Hobgoblin. His longsword bites deep into the Hobgoblins chest, exposing a vulnerable spot for his allies to take advantage of.

If your attack hits Dan, I can try and blast the hobbo with Radiant Vengeance to finish him.

[H.M.Gimlord]

[sblock=renau1g] Yep. It hit! And Hobbie's only got 1 HP left! Finish him off![/sblock]

 

[renau1g]

Seeing Dextyr nearly finishing off the hobgoblin, Blade points a fist at the creature and a blast of white emanates from his arm slamming into the enemies chest and sending him to the ground, smoke fizzles from the wound.

Turning his attention to the swarm of foes in front of him, Blade moves into the trees to flank them with Tristan. "Maros, allow my axe to find their weak spot" the deva says as he brings down his axe with a devastating overhand chop, dropping a number of the foes.

As the hobgoblin breathes its last, Tonk waves a finger in his face, "See? This what happen when bad man try for to attack man who just want to poop! It make me mad. It make Punch Brother of me mad. It even make GOD of Punch Brother of me mad. And what happen to you? You go SPLAT! Is law of universe! No attack person who poop!"

Yeah! This is what happens when we focus our attacks!

OOC: actually, renau1g, I think JNC addressed this in the beginning and allowed you to use the unnerfed variant of RRoT for this adventure only, also Blade doesn't worship Tempus, as that isnt a L4W god?

 

[renau1g]

[sblock=Ozy]
That's correct, I left the name in for ease of judging/review, but I would call it Righteous Rage of Maros in this setting.

[Ozymandias79]

[sblock=renau1g]yes, I understand that but I am just wondering why Blade invokes Tempus' name? shouldn't he have said "Maros, allow my axe to find their weak spot" instead?[/sblock]

Whoops. My brain was obviously not working last night. Thanks!
