Message: <blockquote data-quote="Sorin_777" data-source="post: 6938488" data-attributes="member: 6762764">TL;DR - does the 20 hp regeneration apply to the heart of sorrow, and does spellcasting take one of his two attack actions?My players are as follows, all level six: Cleric, Sorcerer, Wizard, Paladin, and FighterThe Paladin nerfed two near-lethal unarmed strikes with necrotic damage by applying the "protection" fighting style (giving Strahd disadvantage)The Strahd Zombies that arrived with Strahd were entertaining but fodder. Round two he summoned five wolves. Seems way under powered for the supposed 9th level encounter, one Fireball blew up every wolf, I had them arriving in a pack intending to use their pack sense for advantage.I failed to break the link with the heart of sorrow, something I had to do on Strahd's turn as a bonus action, it was here I think I knew I was in trouble.I used the legendary actions mostly to first move out of an area affect, and second and third actions normally the unarmed attack, which I assume is one attack.For spellcasting, I assumed one casting of a spell took up one of the two unarmed attacks, as it would a normal "action". Blight was near lethal. I regenerated Strahd 20 points after every round, but did not regenerate the heart of sorrow. Is that right?I had Strahd appear on a nightmare. I allowed the nightmare to travel with Strahd on his legendary action moves, basically conveying Strahd's action to his steed. In turn the horse had a hoof attack, as well as offering Strahd resistance to fire.When retreating I surely erred, in that I used the steed's move speed instead of shifting to ethereal. Warlock got in one last eldritch blast I believe. But by this time, with the vampire already really low in health, I think something wasn't played right.I'm not sure a good way to share the chat log, since the archive goes back to August. I reset the in game chat before game time, so that maybe more helpful, but the attacks might need some explaining. We are experiencing with video capture, and while that didn't go right, we may have a two hour long mp3. If someone had that kind of patience, we could correlate the mp3 with the chat log. Otherwise I think the above synopsis is a good start at least.[FONT=&quot][/FONT]</blockquote>
