And the battle progresses... [Speculation]

[Kreistor]

Or spoiler. Whatever you want to call it. Notice a trend?

V's at one of the breaches, alone.

Roy's on the Zombie Dragon, alone.

Belkar's outside the city walls, alone.

I dunno. Call me wonky if you like, but I could see that continuing, with each OotS member shining in their own way.

It also reminds me of a certain comment about an upcoming Wallpaer featuring Roy on the zombie dragon. The Giant wants to put in a background. What better background than every OotS member facing their own solo fight?

[Tulisin]

As much as you could see it as "shining on their own", you could also see it as "pre-split for easy pwnage".

[Elphir]

Just wanted to say so.

We all know that Roy was killed by a meteor swarm

V will run out of spells

Belkar doesn't have infinite hitpoints. The only ones who are safe now are Elan (though not completely, running out of puns) Haley and Durkon.

[Da Luniz]

Belkar seems to have the forsight to pack health pots
so unless Haley robbed him....again, Belkar is honestly that last one Id bet on dying

[NeonRonin]

Belkar can't die yet... for he is the Sexy Shoeless God of War!

I'm kind of surprised Durkon hasn't done a lot more Turning. Seems like that would be kind of useful at this point. (Does a L13 cleric automatically destroy 1hd undead in 3.5?)

[Drager]

I reckon Durkon has been playing DDO (Dungeons and Dragons online) and has therefore forgotten that turning works or even exists anymore.

[Angafirith]

Maybe Durkon has one of those Divine Feats from CW(?) that lets you do additional damage to undead if you sacrifice a TU slot. He might be waiting to use it on a powerful enemy, like Xykon or one of the fakes.

Durkon can turn undead x times per day, where x = 3 + his Charisma modifier (which is certainly not positive). Maybe it's even negative, so he has only 2 uses a day. IIRC, he wasted one on the zombie dragon.

The other part is correct; his turning attempt will at least affect undead with 9 or less HD (Durkon is level 13, and the minimum is Cleric level - 4). Turning damage is 2d6 + Cleric level + Charisma modifier, so he would affect at least 14 or 15 HD of undead. If your Cleric level is at least twice the HD of a turned undead, it is destroyed, so he would destroy undead of 6 HD or less.

Durkon had three Turn Undead usages and Rich has said they were only level 8ish at the beginning of the dungeon, though I assume that strip 16 was just a joke that bent the rules a bit.

Alternatively, he could have taken Extra Turning as a feat.

[JaxGaret]

First, everything in the OotSverse is plot-derived, including the OotS-members' stats. So if he needs a few more turning attempts to forward the plot, so be it.

Or Durkon could just have a 10 Cha. Above average, for a Dwarf :smallsmile:
