[QUOTE="covaithe, post: 4752346, member: 46559"] [color=olive]"Vena's enveloping cleavage, hold me fast,"[/color] Quagmire murmurs, staring up at the inky cloud where the beast used to be. [sblock=ooc]Dang... she had to use an AP for that, right? I count four standard actions in three rounds: frightening presence, breath, cloud of darkness, bite. Strategy thoughts: 1. Run away? 2. We're a melee-heavy team, but it's going to be nearly impossible to melee her with that cloud of darkness. Even if we bait her out of it using ranged attacks, she'll recharge it pretty quickly. And she can fly, though probably not well. 3. Thus, I think our best chance is a mostly ranged fight, with occasional melee rounds when opportunity presents itself. We spread out, shoot blindly into the squares she used to be in from well out of her breath range, and when she comes out of the darkness, if she's flying, just keep shooting, and if she lands, move to flank and blow as many melee powers as we can before she makes another cloud. Rinse, repeat. 4. But, honestly, I think our chances are not good. We just don't have the healing capacity to last long enough. Even if we split up, odds are good that someone goes unconscious next time her breath weapon recharges. 5. On the plus side, if we pull it off, I think we'll have the record for most challenging encounter. [/sblock] [/QUOTE]
