24 HPs out of 58.  I'm using '"Iron Resurgence" Encounter power.  Lose a Healing Surge to spend 2 Healing Surges and gain 7 temporary HPs.  I'm now at 52 HPs and 7 temp HPs.[/sblock]Changing this a bit.  Forgot about going in down a healing surge so I'm bloodied after the last successful attack.  @<a href="http://www.enworld.org/forum/member.php?u=6696971" target="_blank">Manbearcat</a> , I figure it might be good if I give you a few d20s in advance in case I have to roll Acrobatics checks or Saving Throws in whatever order.  d20 rolls - 16, 6, 5.Also, if someone hits me due to having Combat Advantage, I'm going to use my Drakescale Armor of Eyes Encounter Power.  It is a Free Action that lets me cancel CA for the triggering attack.Round 4I'm at 28 HP with no temp HP after the fall.[sblock]Minor Action:  Stand from prone with Acrobatics Boots.Free Action:  Class Feature Quick Swap; stow bow and draw greatsword.Standard Action:  MBA on the prone S.  Rolled a 2.  That is an 18 total with CA.  I'm sure that hits.  6 + 14 = 20 damage.  I suspect that kills him.  If not, then my 2nd Power Strike would give me 3 more.Move Action:  Move to B9 and make a Stealth check - 5 (for moving further than 2 squares).  I'm sure there is cover and concealment in those woods.  Check is modifier 6 (11 - 5) + roll 11 = 17 Stealth.[/sblock]</blockquote>
