Re: OOTS #1215 - The Discussion Thread
The line about clerics being the worst got me to laugh. Thank you.

Team Cleric 2.0 for the win!
...now, here's to hoping that Durkon doesn't sleep with his new cleric partner...
Also, Xykon, with his evil cleric standing next to him: "Man, clerics are just the worst."

Re: OOTS #1215 - The Discussion Thread
Geez, Minrah is a lot tougher than I thought she'd be. That's a lot of damage she's tanked to apparently still be standing.
Doesn't protection from fire only reduce the damage by half or does it completely negate it?EDIT: Completely negates it. Okay.Last edited by Stabbey; 2020-09-21 at 08:25 AM.

I really like the fiery lighting in panel #10. And that was hilarious.

Re: OOTS #1215 - The Discussion Thread
I suspect they warded themselves to reduce fall damage perhaps?

Re: OOTS #1215 - The Discussion Thread
When was the last time we saw Energy Drain? When Xykon fought soul spliced V? I like how it now has a consistent look with Enervation rather than the generic caster's aura effect.

Re: OOTS #1215 - The Discussion Thread
So, now Roy and OOTS would notice the current situation? I mean, a maximized fireball that turn on the light on a dim polar day tend to be a decent highlighter.
My bet now is that Team-full-spectrum-warded would run into the labyrinth. hopefully in a door with a large X marked door. not surprisingly, someone marked by MITD deception.

Re: OOTS #1215 - The Discussion Thread
Love the nonchalance of throwing a maximized fireball into a gorge to test the capabilities of two dwarves. Nice looking effect too!
Also it's take cheap shots at Redcloak day, poor dude can't catch a break!

The dramatic shadows accompanying the explosion are a very nice touch.

Re: OOTS #1215 - The Discussion Thread
Agreed, they don't appear to have any new "damage marks." Plus, it seems Durkon was running straight for the cliff, and he and Minrah threw themselves off it with no hesitation at all. They almost have to be under a spell that protects from falling damage.
Of course, one superb dispelling from Xykon would sweep all that away.Last edited by Dausuul; 2020-09-21 at 08:37 AM.

Xykon is great.

Re: OOTS #1215 - The Discussion Thread
Nice.
Gonna appreciate Durkon just casually slinging his hammer into the most powerful caster's face.
X and RC's interactions are great, as usual.

Nice. As Minrah said this is "a bad plan we planned for!"

Re: OOTS #1215 - The Discussion Thread
That would, of course, require Xykon to think they are worth burning Superb Dispelling on, especially when he might have to delve into the dungeons later that day or fight the whole crew later (including that 'a-lister' elf). Or, if he's already done the dungeon delving for that day, if he didn't already expend it.

Looks like Team Cleric is tougher than expected.

Re: OOTS #1215 - The Discussion Thread
I don't think there's a Protection from Street Pizza spell.
EDIT:
Uh, there's a huge new red mark on Minrah's hip, and Durkon's made a hash of his left cheek.
That was just specifically about getting a moment to be rid of the midgies, which has already happened.
I see an impromptu dive into Monster Hollow for Team Cleric shortly.Last edited by Reboot; 2020-09-21 at 08:48 AM.

Re: OOTS #1215 - The Discussion Thread
I bet Roy would never have caught the weapon like that when falling.

Re: OOTS #1215 - The Discussion Thread
The Order of the Stick has now lost the element of surprise. And since the response of Team Evil to Durkon and Minrah has been disorganized and sloppy, it seems clear they were unprepared for outside attackers and would have been caught off guard pretty badly.
Though on the bright side, assuming Durkon and Minrah have escaped now, they have intel on Oona and Greyview for Roy.

Re: OOTS #1215 - The Discussion Thread
My guess is that since the plan was to negotiate (and fight only as a last resort) Durkon and Minrah probably warded themselves against just about everything they could. Except for sonic damage, because no one ever protects themselves against sonic damage.

Re: OOTS #1215 - The Discussion Thread
So I wasn't sure where this was likely to end before, but now I'm thinking it's likely that Durkon and Minrah are going to wind up taking cover in one of the dungeon tunnels.

On the plus side, the bugs are gone. At least both of them can run.
