Spoiler

Show

Start mounted on Dragonhawk. Cast Bite of the Werebear from scroll. Activate Scintillating Scales contingency. Dragonhawk flies to +120

[Tanaric]

You see a huge black-feathered bird centered on B-13 +120. Its head is covered in sharply pointed feathers reminiscent of slick scales, with one large one sticking straight up above a heavy beak. Its massive wings are tipped with vicious claws. Shining gold full plate barding guards its body from physical harm.

A warforged rides on the beast's back, shimmering black fur sprouting from places where wood would be on others of his kind. His head is distended into that of a bear, with a mouth full of sharp teeth, and of all things he wears a pair of blue-lensed spectacles. He is taller and thinner than most warforged, though still medium-sized. He wears a chain shirt, a belt, and boots, in addition to traditional monastic garb. In his hands is a longspear seemingly made of compressed water.

-

The bird dives to R-13 +40, and the warforged leaps off its back into V-13 +5, spear bursting into flames as he goes. He stabs at you four times in rapid succession.

(1d20+24)[25] for (2d10+24)[32] + 52 fire damage + 13 forge fire.
(1d20+24)[39] for (2d10+24)[33] + 52 fire damage + 13 forge fire.

(Hit resolved via IM)

You're affected by a targeted Greater Dispel Magic effect. In addition, if you had fire immunity, you lose it for 3 rounds. If you did not, you gain fire vulnerability for the same amount of time.

Activate Boots of Haste. Better late than never.

I fly up to R-11 +45, next to the bird.

Done.

[Master_Rahl22]

The man you attacked shakes off the pain. He then uses his spear to vault up the steps. He flies up to meet you and unleashes a flurry of attacks.

Swift: Vault the Heavens with a Jump check of +105 to Jump to T-12.

[Tanaric]

Miss.

AoO for moving through a threatened square: (1d20+25)[37] for (2d10+30)[44] + 52 fire damage + 13 forge fire.

Concealment, need double 20s or lower to miss: (1d100)[90] (1d100)[82]

[Tanaric]

The bird unleashes a series of attacks against you, then falls toward the ground.

Claw: (1d20+12)[25] for (1d8+14)[22]
Claw: (1d20+12)[31] for (1d8+14)[20]
Bite: (1d20+7)[27] for (2d6+10)[15]

Wing: (1d20+7)[22] for (1d6+10)[13]

Falling damage: (4d6)[17]

The warforged then murmurs "pierce the heavens" and unleashes a flurry of stabs in your direction.

(1d20+45)[52] for (2d10+30)[41] + 52 fire + 13 forge fire. Edit: Forgot to jump first.
(1d20+25)[32] for (2d10+30)[47] + 52 fire + 13 forge fire.
(1d20+25)[40] for (2d10+30)[44] + 52 fire + 13 forge fire.
(1d20+25)[38] for (2d10+30)[37] + 52 fire + 13 forge fire.

Same routine as before. Let me know if any hit.

Turn not done, by the way.

[Master_Rahl22]

If that +45 is not a typo for the warforged's first attack, then that's a hit. Nothing else hits. I have 10ft reach. Does the bird provoke when it closes to attack me, or when it falls?

[Tanaric]

The bird is huge sized, and has enough reach to strike you without moving. I was giving its center square at all times. It very likely provokes an AoO when falling.

The +45 was not a typo.

[Master_Rahl22]

So I'm assuming the +45 wasn't a typo? Roll your dispel checks.

Here's the AoO for the bird:
Attack - (1d20+23)[40] Damage - (2d10+24)[37]
Attack - (1d20+23)[27] Damage - (2d10+24)[35] (my reading of Snap Kick is that AoOs are included in "Whenever you make a melee attack", disregard this one if I'm wrong)

[Tanaric]

Dispel checks:
(1d20+15)[18]
(1d20+15)[33]
(1d20+15)[28]
(1d20+15)[21]
(1d20+15)[26]
(1d20+15)[32]
(1d20+15)[18]
(1d20+15)[20]
(1d20+15)[21]


If that doesn't change anything, you hit the bird once. It squawks loudly, but continues its fall.

Does anything change from the dispels?

[Master_Rahl22]

To be honest I don't know how dispelling works. I don't have any magical buffs on me, but I do have magic items. Do the items potentially get dispelled? Do things like the Haste effect from Boots of Speed get dispelled, but the item is still good?

[Tanaric]

That was a targeted dispel directed against you. It tries to dispel ongoing magical effects on you, but doesn't dispel your equipment.

So, no effect, then.

I take an "air jump" five feet up, then fly west to A-11 +100. Spear bursts into flames, etc, etc.

[Master_Rahl22]

I do an air spear vault for Jump - (1d20+105)[118] to lets's say C-11 +65. I then auto-succeed on a Tumble check to move half speed to C-11 +100.

Attack - (1d20+22)[34] Damage - (2d10+24)[35] and 54 fire + 13 forge fire
Attack - (1d20+22)[30] Damage - (2d10+24)[41] and 54 fire + 13 forge fire
Attack - (1d20+22)[23] Damage - (2d10+24)[31] and 54 fire + 13 forge fire
Attack - (1d20+22)[25] Damage - (2d10+24)[39] and 54 fire + 13 forge fire
Attack - (1d20+22)[24] Damage - (2d10+24)[31] and 54 fire + 13 forge fire

End of turn. I'll use Ten Mirrored Steps if 2 hit.

Wow, 12, 8, 1, 3, 2 for attack rolls. That's not going to cut it.

[Tanaric]

Misses across the board.

Auto-succeed tumble to A-8 +100, then fly around a bit before vaulting to C-11 +115.

Stabbity stabbity:
(1d20+25)[29] for (2d10+30)[39] + 52 fire + 13 forge fire
(1d20+25)[35] for (2d10+30)[44] + 52 fire + 13 forge fire
(1d20+25)[41] for (2d10+30)[43] + 52 fire + 13 forge fire
(1d20+25)[32] for (2d10+30)[43] + 52 fire + 13 forge fire

Not done.

[Master_Rahl22]

No hits. Man, this is nuts.

[Tanaric]

The bird launches itself off the ground and initiates a charging grapple attempt.

(1d20+14)[27] vs touch. Opposed grapple if needed: (1d20+22)[35]

Edit: Take your AoO.

[Master_Rahl22]

Attack - (1d20+23)[26] Damage - (2d10+24)[33]
Attack - (1d20+23)[24] Damage - (2d10+24)[41]

Does the flaming spear thing still apply? If so, it gets added.

The touch attack misses.

[Tanaric]

According to Jake it does.

Both miss. Your turn.

[Master_Rahl22]

5ft flutter to C-11 +105.

Flurry:
Attack - (1d20+22)[35] Damage - (1d20+24)[39]
Attack - (1d20+22)[39] Damage - (1d20+24)[37]
Attack - (1d20+22)[32] Damage - (1d20+24)[35]
Attack - (1d20+22)[23] Damage - (1d20+24)[25]
Attack - (1d20+22)[39] Damage - (1d20+24)[39]

Activate Belt of Battle for an extra standard action.

Flurry:
Attack - (1d20+22)[26] Damage - (1d20+24)[26]
Attack - (1d20+22)[33] Damage - (1d20+24)[27]
Attack - (1d20+22)[30] Damage - (1d20+24)[34]
Attack - (1d20+22)[28] Damage - (1d20+24)[25]
Attack - (1d20+22)[27] Damage - (1d20+24)[32]

End of turn. I'll use Ten Mirrored Steps if 2 hit, and I'll cry if 0 hit.

Average should be 32.5 These average to 31.2. Ok so they just look below average on first glance, but I'm still annoyed.

[Tanaric]

Did you increase your maneuverability from the feathered wings? If not, I'm fairly sure you're about to fall to the ground for failing to maintain forward speed.

None of those connected. Need to know if you fall first.

[Master_Rahl22]

I suppose I should read the flying rules, cause none of that meant anything to me. Since I had a move action I didn't use, can we just say that I tumbled at half speed around for a while and then did the same actions you saw there?

[Tanaric]

If you like. Do you auto-pass tumble for two creatures, or just one? If it's just one, roll tumble, since you're threatened by the bird and the warforged right now.

[Master_Rahl22]

Yes I pass for 2. Go ahead, and sorry about the rules stuff. There's a reason I haven't tried to make a caster for this.

[Tanaric]

The bird Withdraws, and circles up, centered on C-11 +200.

The warforged tumbles around, then jumps to C-11 +120.

Stab! Stab! Stab!:
(1d20+25)[30] for (2d10+30)[37] + 52 fire + 13 forge fire
(1d20+25)[26] for (2d10+30)[39] + 52 fire + 13 forge fire
(1d20+25)[39] for (2d10+30)[38] + 52 fire + 13 forge fire
(1d20+25)[35] for (2d10+30)[39] + 52 fire + 13 forge fire

[Tanaric]

Assuming those all miss, it's your turn.

[Master_Rahl22]

Misses again. I'm wondering if Between the Raindrops needs a nerf.

Tumble away, then spear vault to C-11 +130. Provoke an AoO

Attack - (1d20+22)[42] Damage - (2d10+24)[34] + 54 fire + 13 forge fire
Attack - (1d20+22)[33] Damage - (2d10+24)[37] + 54 fire + 13 forge fire
Attack - (1d20+22)[36] Damage - (2d10+24)[37] + 54 fire + 13 forge fire
Attack - (1d20+22)[34] Damage - (2d10+24)[33] + 54 fire + 13 forge fire
Attack - (1d20+22)[32] Damage - (2d10+24)[32] + 54 fire + 13 forge fire

I'm beginning to suspect that I'll need a 20 to hit you. Here's hoping.

EDIT: The provoke AoO above was left over from what I thought about doing. I can tumble as part of the jump so no AoO.

[Master_Rahl22]

And there it was! Crit confirm - (1d20+22)[24] Extra damage - (2d10+24)[31] Not sure if the fire or forge fire get multiplied as well.
