[QUOTE="Binks, post: 6495397, member: 6775039"] I know it would be pretty dramatic to put one right between each of those guys' eyes and watch them slump to the floor, but I'm thinking it would stretch my abilities to the max to pull that off. Those guys are well armored, trained warriors, and don't pose the threat that the two guys in the back running to unhitch the wolves do. I will, however, get their attention. With [B][I]Camouflage[/I][/B], I'll definitely be attacking these guys at range with surprise. So... [sblock][B][I]Called Shot [/I][/B]on one of the light armored goblins running to one of the sleds to unhitch the wolves. I'm not going to risk anything here with a roll. Just automatic d8 damage. 6 damage - 1 armor = 5.[/sblock] I'm sure he's dead. I let loose the first arrow. As it cuts through the air, I whistle loudly, making sure to draw their attention to myself and to the deadly draw of my bow. When I confirm the first goblin heading to a sled to unhitch the wolves is dead, another arrow will immediately be free from my bowstring and into the air. [sblock]Volley (Dex) on the second goblin running to the other sled. 4, 5 + 2 = 11. d8 damage. Crap. Only 2 damage - 1 armor = 1 damage.[/sblock] I scrunch my nose and furrow my brow as I pull the same trick I did yesterday against the Perytons. I leap from my chimney perch, slide down the steep roof and hit the ground running. A few quick steps to my right later, I look down my line of sight as another arrow flies from my quiver to my bowstring and toward the goblin. [sblock]Volley (Dex) on goblin trying to unhitch the wolves from the sled. 4, 3 + 2 = 9 Hrmmm. Can't afford the Ammo loss nor risk the - d6 damage. I'll roll normal damage and choose: You have to move to get the shot placing you in danger as described by the GM. 6 damage - 1 armor = 5.[/sblock] That should kill him. Tell me what kind of trouble I get myself into and where I end up. [/QUOTE]
