You see Josh enter G25, move to H25, leave LoS, reenter LoS at I25 and then leave LoS again for good. You hear his footsteps recedes to the South.

Total Defense precludes AoO so no rewinds are necessary.

[Master_Rahl22]

Ok, I'm done. Go ahead.

[Scorer]

Oro 3rd Turn


Drink potion of bull's strength and throw empty vial beyond edge of arena to prevent sound.(H27)

I'm uncertain as of what kind of action is that throw, I would think it is a move action. However, if it is free I want to draw a Tanglefoot Bag. Please Ref answer me this in the next LoS check so I know what to do next.

Oro
No LoS.
---------------------
Dropping an item is a free action, and items may be dropped into adjacent squares, so that would have been a free action. Throwing items further however is a standard ranged attack roll.

Also, by strict interpretation the only time a hide roll may be saved is when either no actions are taken, any actions taken are purely mental, or the same readied action/defensive stance used in the previous turn is 'held' over.

The ref staff is usually lenient on the fuzzier stuff unless your opponent challenges, but physical actions (drawing items, drinking potions, casting spells with somatic components) all by precedent require new hide checks.

Josh
No LoS

Carry On.

That triggers my readied action:

Throw Tanglefoot bag when you are in range, that would be K26 I think...

Ranged Touch Attack

If hit the effect lasts [roll1]rounds...

[Master_Rahl22]

[roll0]

Refs: I have now been rendered immobile before I could complete the charge. Can I use the rest of my turn to attack the goo on me, or attempt a strength check to break it?

[Scorer]

As per Mavian answer I'm taking my turn now... (it is my turn right? I'm bad with this kind of init things)

Rolling misdirection...

[roll0]

4, 5 or 6 deal 1 splash damage to you...

[Master_Rahl22]

If you take your readied action in the next round, before your regular turn comes up, your initiative count rises to that new point in the order of battle, and you do not get your regular action that round.

So I'm pretty sure you don't get a turn in round 5.

[Sallera]

Well, it's technically Round 6, but it still occurs at the same point.

[Master_Rahl22]

I meant that I think the post titled with Oro 5th turn doesn't happen. The readied action occurred in the next round before Oro's initiative count, so Oro's count moves up to what mine is and he forfits a turn. That 1 HP might make a difference. I'm still waiting on a ruling for what type of action is required to make a Str check to break the goo.

[Scorer]

Ok, no problem. Though I beleive it is standard... (and it is without bias :smalltongue:)

[Sallera]

Yes, technically he loses his turn that round. However, his initiative count ends up just before yours, so as soon as your turn ends, it's his again. The action happens as listed. And for the action required, closest I can find is Entangle, which also produces an entangle effect and requires a full-round action, but there may be a closer match elsewhere.

[Master_Rahl22]

I'm confused about why his initiative count would be slightly before mine now, since the readied action occurred on my turn, and only after I had started some actions. My reading of the SRD is that his initiative is now exactly equal to mine, and he loses a turn. This would result in that alchemist fire not being thrown, and it goes right back to my turn again.

[Sallera]

For the rest of the encounter, your initiative result is the count on which you took the readied action, and you act immediately ahead of the character whose action triggered your readied action.

That's why. His initiative essentially becomes 6.1, and thus after your turn ends, it goes back around to him.

[Master_Rahl22]

Thanks for explaining. Since it's unlikely that I can use a move action to break free, my turn is over. Go ahead, Scorer.

[Scorer]

Actually you should roll your attack, as improbable as it may be, you could always roll a Nat 1 against the goo...

[Master_Rahl22]

A creature trying to scrape goo off itself, or another creature assisting, does not need to make an attack roll; hitting the goo is automatic, after which the creature that hit makes a damage roll to see how much of the goo was scraped off.

I don't have to make the attack roll, and my minimum damage roll is 10. I only need to do 3 more damage to the goo to be free.

[Scorer]

Oh... didn't know that existed... ok, sorry about it...

Let's make this fun!

You'll have to roll miss chance for the AoO, but not the bull rush.

[Master_Rahl22]

Good point, forgot about that.

Bdee, bdee, bdee that's all folks!

[Scorer]

Ok, I'm dead =P Good game! :smallbiggrin:

I beleive that's match and Round...

[Sallera]

It is indeed.

Joshua narrowly avoids a nasty fall, and takes match and Round.
