Message: <blockquote data-quote="covaithe" data-source="post: 5194460" data-attributes="member: 46559">Round 3The battle swirls heavily around two points.  Ba-Ka-Thet takes many wounds from the foes surrounding him, and looks to be in trouble despite the intervention of the Raven Queen at her cleric's behest.  Meanwhile, the company pours damage into the remorhaz, pounding the demon again and again with punishing blows and forcing it back, its intense heat abating momentarily.  Then it roars back, biting ineffectually at Kalas.  The giant yuan-ti is more effective, poisoning Kalas again but missing Kylek.  The great black wyvern circles high, breathing noxious fumes again, though to little effect.  This part of the battle seems to be going well, until a spell from the death giant takes hold of Sarenax, attempting to tear the soul directly from his body.  The effect is powerful enough that Sarenax can take no other action but grit his teeth and resist with all his might, as he feels his strength quickly ebbing.  [sblock=ooc]BKT shifts, gaining +2 speed and +1 AC and Reflex for the encounter.  I have them at 37 and 36 now, respectively, yes?  He spends Undimmed Sun to heal a surge and gain resist 7 all.  (Note that it doesn't stack with the resist 5 all that he already had.)  Rising Dragon Fire misses Mauglurien, hits sorrowsworn 2 and the death giant.  Mauglurien takes 15 fire, the others take 31 fire.  Flurry does 7 to the sorrowsworn, and 17 to Mauglurien.  Apparently he's vulnerable to radiant.  And there's a zone; the orange bit.  The Remorhaz' blindness and radiant vuln. expires. Kalas marks the Anathema, the remorhaz, and sorrowsworn 1.  LD on the remorhaz.  Blizzard strike hits for 47 psychic and some effects.  I have it that psychic lock only gives -2 to the next attack roll, not to all rolls TENT.  Is that a recent change?  The compendium doesn't list it as a change...  Anyway, unlikely to matter greatly.  The anathema and sorrowsworn 1 are also slowed (TENT Kalas).  Sarenax takes 5 thunder and 5 lightning, and also 5 fire from the remorhaz.  Not that it matters, given all the healing this turn.  He does Oath of Enmity on the remorhaz.  Indomitable spirit crits for 73 and 20 ongoing (se).  A ridiculous amount of healing happens.  Sarenax makes his save. Batin teleports into mid-air and misses his grab attack.  He falls 20 feet.  As far as I can see, he's not trained in Acrobatics, and can't attempt to reduce the falling damage, so he'd take 16.  Am I missing something?  T7 is within the thick mists, which counts as heavily obscured terrain.  Adjacent enemies have concealment, and anyone farther away has total concealment.  Kylek hits with dragon frost for 47 cold.  The remorhaz is pushed 2 NE and gains 5 cold vuln.  It is bloodied now.  He moves up and misses Mauglurien with lightning daggers on his AP. Massacre and Lucy shift NE away from the fell wyvern.  He uses Chilling cloud, burst 1 on F10.  It <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2536084/" target="_blank">hits Mauglurien, sorrowsworn 2, and the death giant</a> fro 29 cold damage, and enemies in the burst area take -2 to attacks TENT (Massacre).  Lucifa <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2536139/" target="_blank">saves</a> vs. dazed. Mauglurien shifts S and readies; sorrowsworn 1 shifts N.  They both attack.  The sorrowsworn's attack hits with <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2536103/" target="_blank">39 vs. AC for 27 damage</a>, reduced to 20 by resists.  Mauglurien <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2536105/" target="_blank">hits AC 44 for 29 damage</a>, reduced to 22 by resists, and grants sorrowsworn 1 another attack:  <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2536107/" target="_blank">crit for 44 damage</a>, reduced to 37.  BKT is bloodied again. The fell wyvern takes 5 necrotic for starting near Massacre, but resists it all.   It <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2536111/" target="_blank">recharges</a> its breath weapon, which it promptly uses.  Targets fort; <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2536122/" target="_blank">31 vs. Kalas misses, 28 vs. Kylek misses, 32 vs. Sarenax hits, 40 vs. Massacre hits, 39 vs. Lucifa hits, 36 vs. Gilthanas hits</a>.  Those hit take   <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2536132/" target="_blank">19 necrotic damage</a> and 10 ongoing necrotic (se).  Massacre takes only 4 from the initial attack, and ignores the ongoing.  Gilthanas takes only 9, and no ongoing.   The wyvern flies over next to Massacre and up to 5 squares above ground.  I believe it's not adjacent to Massacre. Archon 1 flies a bit closer and uses resounding bolt on Sarenax; <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2536148/" target="_blank">41 vs. Fort hits for 14 thunder</a>, reduced to 9, and 10 ong lightning (se)Archon 2 tries it against BKT, <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2536156/" target="_blank">34 vs. Fort hits for 7 damage</a>, all negated, and 10 ong. lightning damage (se). Sorrowsworn 1 takes 5 necrotic from starting near Massacre.  It uses corpse dance, shifting 8 and making 3 attacks at any point during the movement.  It <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2536168/" target="_blank">misses Kalas, misses Kylek, and hits Sarenax for 19</a>, reduced to 14.  It's out of range for Kalas to retaliate when it hits.  death giant moves out of the chilling cloud and attacks Sarenax with soul shrive:  <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2536171/" target="_blank">32 vs. Fort hits</a>, and Sarenax is stunned and loses 1 healing surge at the start of his turn (save ends both).  The Yuan-ti double attacks, one against Kalas and one against Kylek.  42 vs. AC hits Kalas for 11, reduced to 6, and 10 ongoing poison (se).  35 vs. AC misses Kylek, due to Kalas' mark.  The Remorhaz <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2536201/" target="_blank">fails</a> to recharge, moves to L11 taking 5 from approaching Massacre and 20 ongoing, and bites Kalas:  <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2536197/" target="_blank">28 vs. AC</a> misses.  It spends its AP to try again:  <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2536198/" target="_blank">31 vs. AC</a> misses.   Grr....  Note the aura, though.  Whoops, I forgot it was dazed; make that first one a charge.  Still all misses.  It <a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2536206/" target="_blank">saves vs. slowed and ongoing damage</a>, but remains dazed.
