[IC] The Protectors of Greensfen (Part II)

[pathfinderq1]

"You don't hit nearly as hard as your friend did," Kraegyn growled- but it was obvious that he was hurting. He stepped back a pace, out of the perilous position he had been in, then flourished his sword in a wide sweeping blow that hit nothing but seemed to renew some of his focus...

OOC:
>Move action to shift to N 5 (stays adjacent to WS, so Divine challenge is still running)
>Standard action for Second Wind: heal a surge, +2 defenses.

 

[Arbanax]

Spurred on by his good fortune Rellek pressed home the attack against the second soldier.

[Sblock=Crunch ]

(OOC: H1 is toast, Rellek gets 2 tmp hp from Blay this round. Rellek did not get to use disruptive strike because the target was not adjacent (reach weapon) Rellek gains 12 hp, +2 defenses. I'm assuming you want to mark H3 with your quarry since you couldn't have known your other quarry was going to die in advance.).

Yeah that is great NT thanks for that.

Rellek goes in swinging once again (If I haven't already done the marking of H3 I do it now...

Using twin strike against him...

Roll 1 Nat 20 for 15 Damage plus 1d8 thunder damage = 2 plus hunters quarry= also 2 hp
Roll 2 10 a miss

[/sblock]

Ab

 

[The Digger]

Joshua's eyes narrowed as he was hit yet again. This time he was more careful, holding his staff in a defensive manner while he took a deep breath and considered his options.

[sblock=OOC]Shift to G5: Standard, second wind - recover 8hp[/sblock]

 

[nerdytenor]

Karis and Blay are up

As Kraegyn and Joshua take a moment to renew themselves, Joshua swings at the human soldier, nearly finishing him off with a single blow. (OOC: Hit, but your crit does 12 damage (1d10+2 for twin strike), +2 magic +2 quarry = 16 total. Soldier bloodied).

The bartender pokes out from under the cover of the bar, takes a look around, and ducks back down again.

OOC: I know I owe you a map update - work hell.

[Bramble]

The battle was finally turning! Despite Blay's inability to connect his blows, the group was working as a team to win the fight. Glancing at the blood pouring out of Kraegyn, Blay knew the dragonborn would be dying by now if it weren't for Blay's bolstering words earlier.

Closing in with the warforged again, Blay tries to mark the machine for the benefit of his comrades again.

"Kraegyn! Take a step the left or you're in for a whole new world of hurt!"

[sblock=ooc]Moving to N6
Another Guiding Strike vs. WS. +7 vs. AC, 1d6+3. -2 to his AC if it hits
Free Action: Valourous Bard, Kraegyn gets 2 temp. hp for killing the WL. In the future, do you want to treat the Val. Bard power as an immediate reaction whenever someone bloodies or kills something, or do I have to wait for my turn to make it explicit?[/sblock]

 

[covaithe]

Karis stabs the warforged again and again, but even with her elven reflexes she cannot quite damage it.

[sblock=actions]Move to flank. If flanking isn't possible... well, turns out it hardly matters.
Standard: riposte strike hits AC 17 for 21 damage. Since I'm pretty sure that's a miss, I'll burn elven accuracy for... another 17. Okay, then.
[/sblock]

 

[nerdytenor]

Next - all up

While Karis fails to hit her enemy, Blay scores well, weakening the machine's defenses in the process (OOC: Nat 17 hits easily, 6 damage, penalty applied).

Seemingly unstoppable, the remaining warforged savages Kraegyn yet again (OOC: +9 vs AC 24, hit, 5 damage (2 absorbed from tmp hp)), although the human next to him, closing ranks, fails to connect (OOC: Nat 4 miss).

The other human takes a swing at Rellek - though he hits, (+10 vs AC = 25, 10 damage, Rellek bloodied), he is clearly unhappy with how the battle is going, and takes another step towards the door.

[sblock=Slight map fudge] I'm fudging on the positions a bit, since I didn't do a map update and some of your actions were not entirely compatible with 'reality' (Karis positioning in particular)
[/sblock]

[sblock=Valorous bard class feature]
I will just go ahead and grant the tmp hp for you whenever I remember to do so whenever an ally bloodies/drops an enemy - if I don't (like this time), or if you didn't want me to, speak up and we can adjust things.

[pathfinderq1]

Kraegyn gave a deep, rumbling growl as he swung his heavy sword again, trying to crack the metal casing of the second warforged. "Kord keeps me strong!," he roared as he struck, the massive sword slamming home with a heavy crunch.

OOC:
>Minor: Channel divinity for Divine Strength (+4 damage on next attack this turn)
>Standard: another Valiant Strike on the 'forged; +12 vs. AC (with bonuses for adjacent foes and dragonborn fury)= 21 (hit); damage 2d4+5+4 divinity= 13; rolls Roll Lookup

 

[Arbanax]

Rellek heard only the might clash of weapons as his friend continued to pound their enemies, not yet knowing why they had been targeted thus. But as the human, struck true once again, Rellek found his ire and the blood of his ancestors rise within him.

He moved forward to block the human's escape trapping him with Joshua to better aid his attack.

[sblock=crunch]

Ok move to G7 to grant combat advantage and strike home with twin strike once again:

roll 1 {+3 for combat advantage and bloodied to hit} 24 , Damage {1d10+2 + 1d8}=8 hp damage.
roll 2 13

[/sblock]

Ab.
