D&D 5E New Vecna Battle (Let's Get Ready to RUMBLE!!!) - CONCLUDED

[Smythe the Bard]

Anywas, Vecna is a beast, and those Lair actions match.

yeah, you let him play his game and its a bad day. Starting to think a party of only combat casters might turn the tables. 3 cast cantrips to use up the counterspells and the forth drops the hammer and forces the LS.

 

[Smythe the Bard]

Vyrlim moves (out of the symbol) to the square besides Pyre and casts Locate Creature to find "Vecna".

 

[DND_Reborn]

4.5.2 (Vyrlim) Vyrlim strides over next to Pyre, casting locate creature as he takes up a defensive posture.

The yellow arrow indicates the direction Vecna is in.

It is now Selossen's Turn on Initiative 21 (round #6).

 

[Smythe the Bard]

"He's totally at the top of the stairs dudes!" Vyrlim shouts and points most excellently to the spot. "Uh, I mean, kinda like in that direction".

 

[DND_Reborn]

"He's totally at the top of the stairs dudes!" Vyrlim shouts and points most excellently to the spot.

FYI, the spell locates direction, but not distance, just to be clear.

 

[DND_Reborn]

4.6.21 (Selossen) Unconscious and dying, Selossen's body shutters (failed Roll 5+2=7 vs. DC 10 Death Save)

@DragonBelow Selossen now has two failed death saves.

No Lair Actions occur (that the party is aware of) on Initiative 20.

@FitzTheRuke it is now Pyre's Turn on Initiative 19.

 

[FitzTheRuke]

Pyre moved toward the top of the stairs, with her bow at the ready.

(Pyre has Blindsense, which allows her to spot an invisible creature within 10 feet of her. She will move in the direction that Vyrlim suggested, but hopes to stop before she gets in melee with Vecna.)

 

[DorkForge]

It's worth mentioning here that the Rogue's Blindsense isn't blindsight, it should be, but I guess that's for 2024 to solve.

Note: I'm not saying you wouldn't know where Vecna was, but the difference is important as Pyre would still have disadvantage and lose Sneak

 

[DND_Reborn]

Pyre moved toward the top of the stairs, with her bow at the ready.

@FitzTheRuke can you tell me which space number?

Or if there is someplace else you want to move to?

And by "bow at the ready" do you mean you want to take the Ready Action to shoot Vecna when you see him?

(Pyre has Blindsense, which allows her to spot an invisible creature within 10 feet of her. She will move in the direction that Vyrlim suggested, but hopes to stop before she gets in melee with Vecna.)

Yep, got it.

Yep. Blindsense will reveal his location, allowing Pyre to fire at him because she will know which space he occupies, but since she cannot see Vecna her attack will still be wit disadvantage.
