*** Now talking in #Nightbelow

*** Topic is 'More layoffs!  Sysadmin available!'

<Saif> So Judd, this mean you found a new job?

<Castinar> back --- hiya

<Saif> Hey Galen

<Saif> trying to get set up here.  things are a mess

<Castinar> hehe --- I'm the one who just moved --- thats my line

<Saif> my room looks worse that it usually does when Heather plays down here.  I've got CDs and floppies all over the place.

<Saif> brb

*** Kat has joined #nightbelow

*** dshutton has joined #nightbelow

<Kat> hello

<Castinar> Hiya -- both!  How were your Holidays?

<Amber> hi everyone!

<Kat> New Year's was great

<Kat> How about yours?

<Amber> pretty good, lots of good relative fights, gifts and stuff <G>

<Castinar> I got a new house --- that about it.

<Amber> hi

<Saif> back

<Thengal> Hi everyone

<Kat> New house

<Kat> great

<Amber> new new or used new?

<Castinar> Used new --- couldn't afford a new new <VBG>

<Saif> Here's a new program to write - something to allow people to re-arrange the buttons on their taskbar.

<Castinar> Very good condition though --- recently remodelled.  Just got tired of renting

<Saif> Since we're kind of lite tonight we'll start as soon as Seth gets here

<Castinar> Hmmm.... I might be able to do that

<Thengal> I hear you there Galen

<Drubar> oops seth will be late

<Saif> how late?

*** Drubar is now known as Matar

<Amber> now the fun begins and the yard work never ends!

<Matar> im guessing 9:30

<Amber> <g>

<Saif> You're central time?

<Matar> the gf just dragged him off for dindin with the rents

<Matar> aye

<Thengal> What is that in GMT??

<Castinar> I know I could right my own windows program --- but it wouldn't be as (dis)functional as MS Windows <G>

<Matar> say an hour and a half

<Saif> OK, I guess we'll get started then.

<Saif> .

<Saif> .

<Saif> .

<Saif> .

<Saif> .

<Saif> .

<Saif> .

<Saif> First on the init sheet - Shadow

<Saif> so what does Shadow want to do

<Saif> ?

*** Matar is now known as Shadow

* Shadow drows drow and moons the bad guys!

*** Shadow is now known as Matar

<Castinar> Umm... forgot about that part didn't I?

<Matar> ugh

<Castinar> Will arm a +1 arrow and fire

<Matar> s/d/t

<Saif> s/d/t?

<Saif> K, roll to hit, W

<Castinar> ?

<Matar> nm

<Matar> its substitue t for d

<Castinar> db

<db> Castinar rolled 1d20: [15]

<Saif> remember to put your +s in

<Castinar> looking

<Saif> * 16

<Castinar> slow loading

<Saif> so 31...

<Saif> much larger now

<Saif> oh... that's something I haven't loaded yet (the "slim" web page converter for Office).  I may need to do that before I refresh the grid

<Castinar> I'm showing +14 -- where the other +2 from?

<Saif> I've got 15 on the sheet, +1 for the arrow, checking...

<Castinar> >30', no?

<Castinar> Yep -- +1 for arrow -- but thought was using the >30' THAC0

<Saif> ah, that's what it is

<Castinar> (or whatever THAC0 is now <G>)

<Saif> so +15 for 30, which still hits

<Saif> roll damage

<Castinar> db d6+1

<db> Castinar rolled 1d6+1: [7]

<Saif> #$@ gotta run upstairs, brb

<Castinar> (only firing once to see effect)

<Saif> back

<Saif> that arrow hits the creature.  a tiny flake of stone chips off but the arrow doesn't stick in.

<Castinar> Hmmm....

<Saif> @ Amber?

<Amber> *question..are those 10' squares on the map?

<Saif> ### Instead of typing "So-n-so what do you want to do" each time I'm just going to type @So-n-so to request an action.

<Saif> Yes, 10' squares.

*** Ted has joined #nightbelow

*** Thengal has quit IRC (Ping timeout)

<Amber> if so, then AMber moves her 5' then casts Protection fromevil on Capt. Narlan - touch, lasts 6 min, asking him not to move while she protects him a bit.

*** Ted is now known as Thengal

<Saif> K, updating

<Thengal> Did I miss much?

<Matar> just your death - but it wasn't very exciting anyway

<Thengal> Ahh np

<Saif> @Kat?

* Kat sees the poor results of Shadow's arrow and prepares her bow with a +2 arrow and fires at O2.

<Saif> roll to hit

<Kat> db d20+15

<db> Kat rolled 1d20+15: [28]

<Saif> roll damage

<Kat> db 1d6+4

<db> Kat rolled 1d6+4: [6]

<Nikki> hey

<Nikki> brb

<Saif> * Shadow has better arrow stats than Kat?!?

<Saif> Same thing happens.  A tiny flake gets knocked off, but the arrow doesn't seem to do any permanent damage

<Thengal> *heh heh

<Saif> @Castiner?

* Castinar casts soften earth stone stats:

<Castinar> Range 45', Area 5 10' squares

<Castinar> target

<Castinar> d6 - d10

<Saif> oops... hold on a second, I think I had something wrong...

<Castinar> 4' deep

<Saif> Yup, had it wrong.  Both Shadow's and Kat's arrows do damage.  Kat - do you want to fire a +1 instead?

<Kat> yes

<Saif> BTW - which target where you guys firing at?!

<Castinar> #1

<Kat> #2

<Saif> OK, Cast's spell goes off, updating

<Nikki> Wanted: 6 figure salary for unix admin/manager of 24x7 operations

<Saif> Cast - duration perm?

<Castinar> *Instantaneous, so permanent

<Saif> K, there is now a long muddy patch in the middle of the room

<Saif> Nikki does something defensive

<Saif> @Matar?

<Matar> delay action

<Saif> K, M delaying for D

<Saif> @T?

<Saif> You here, Ted?

<Thengal> Double move action 30' to f10c and readying shield/axe while moving.  Will save partial action until

<Saif> f10c, updating

<Thengal> end of round (for the boots)

<Saif> so you delay until the end of the round for your partial action?  That will rest your init.

<Saif> reset, not rest

<Thengal> Shouldn.t be a delay, say I can take that partial action at beginning or end of round

<Saif> Or do you ready? 

<Matar> * its not a delay - thats a full round - this is just a ready

<Saif> Ah, ok

<Saif> so flexing the partial action, check

<Thengal> Yup

<Saif> Diana casts Haste on Matar... finding the stats and updating...

<Saif> @Matar?

<Kat> *Saif, update Kat's attack.  With Diana's Cat's Grace, Kat's att went up +2

<Saif> Kat - updated

<Saif> Matar - your action?

<Matar> DM to f8c, free action draw katana (1H full O), ready shield while moving, ready action to beat up bad guy

<Saif> K, matar has a readied action to attack anything that comes within range

<Saif> the monsters now move

<Saif> they move quite slowly, only covering about 20'

<Saif> #1 steps right into the softened area but doesn't seem slowed down much by it.  #2 skirts the edge. 

<Saif> #1 appears to be heading towards Matar, #2 towards Thengal

<Saif> 1 makes it to D6b, 2 to D11a

<Saif> Sane does something defensive

<Castinar> hmmm... hoped it would trip and fall or something... :-}

<Saif> end of round - Matar and Thengal, what do you do? you've both got about 20' between you and the monsters

<Matar> im not sure that readying really works like that

<Thengal> Move to e11c (still 10' away from them.

<Saif> Matar - you can hold on to your Delay, but the monsters won't get to you before your init comes up again.

<Saif> Thengal - check

<Matar> ill keep my readied action

<Saif> Actually it doesn't look like anything will change for Matar whether he holds the action or not.  His init will still be at 9 now, regardless.  The only way it would improve is if his trigger happened before his init next round.

<Saif> K, updating map and grid.

<Amber> *Saif, 4' deep mud, does that come up to the golems ankle?

*** Missy has joined #nightbelow

<Thengal> Hey Missy

<Missy> hello

<Nikki> hi

<Amber> hi

<Kat> hi

<Saif> just a sec, having connection problems

<Missy> Eric says hello also

<Missy> not here physically - but you know the story

<Castinar> hehe --- at work?

<Thengal> Say hi to Sigurd for us

<Missy> will do

<Missy> stuttering or laughing Cast?

<Missy> and yes

<Saif> ### OK, map and grid are up.  While you guys are checking that out I'm going to close down my Office programs and install the HTML exporter.  The grid file is huge.

<Amber> *on limited memory tonight, can't go look. :(

<Saif> ### Back - any questions?

<Amber> *Saif, 4' deep mud, does that come up to the golems ankle?

<Saif> * Mud comes up about to the knees

<Amber> ahhh! thanks

<Castinar> Eh -- who is shadow on map (letter?)

<Saif> Cast, make a ... hum, a check, let me see which one...

<Saif> Shaodow is W

<Kat> *free listen checks for what is coming around us?

<Kat> *Ari will be here in a sec

<Saif> Cast - make a spot check, please (remember to add in your bonus)

<Castinar> db d20+11

<db> Castinar rolled 1d20+11: [18]

-> *Castinar* now that you've seen these things move, you suspect that they are actually elementals, not golems

<Saif> OK, moving on to round 2

<Saif> @Shadow?

<Castinar> double move to d3A (straigt to e3A then up 10')

<Saif> done

<Saif> @Amber?

<Amber> ahh...sorry hubby just came home...

<Amber> guarding and listening.

<db> Kat rolled 1d20+12: [15]

<Saif> k

<Matar> do you get 3 shots or was that a follow up for the crit chance?

<Saif> @Cast?

<Kat> *Saif, my second arrow was a 20

* Castinar shouts out (just loud enough for all to hear) -- Beware --- they're not Golems, they're Elementals of Earth --- then breaks out in Terran -- trying to distract their attention "Stop your attack -- there is no need!"

<Kat> ####Saif, my second arrow was a 20

<Saif> Ah, so it was

<Saif> roll the threat

<Kat> db d20+14

<db> Kat rolled 1d20+14: [22]

<Saif> that hits - what's crit on an arrow?  x3?

<Kat> yes

<Matar> of course the other question is can these be crited - i know undead cant, not sure what else

<Saif> checking a couple things...

<Castinar> nope

<Castinar> not subject to stuns, crits, poison

<Saif> yes, they are immune to crits

<Matar> ick

<Thengal> How underwhelming it all seems

<Saif> Diana... isn't here.  Just a sec...

<Matar> thengal is the 3e Castinar!

<Thengal> *ROFL

<Castinar> LoL

<Saif> * How about a Prayer spell from Diana?  Or do you want her to hold on to that?

<Saif> Or a MM?

<Castinar> Man --- we should've switched to 3E 4 years ago!

<Saif> brb

<Castinar> check

<Castinar> prayer sounds good

<Matar> actaully i kinda like see invis

<Castinar> *I can do that already --- if I come up with something, I can warn her

<Castinar> It also only affects her

<Matar> you have innate see invis?

<Thengal> Finslayer does

<Matar> ah

<Saif> So... Matar, you're going to be battle leader here since Sane is still out of it.  What do you want her to cast?

<Matar> i guess prayer is good

<Saif> OK, Diana casts Prayer

<Saif> Everybody except for Matar, Thengal, and Shadow are affected

<Saif> updating

<Castinar> thats a +1 on all rolls for us, -1 for foes

<Matar> ugh icky range on that

<Matar> will you let her take a 5' step forward to maximise it?

<Matar> that should let her hit me too

<Saif> Roll a spellcraft check for her, Matar (just the d20, I'll find the modifier)

<Matar> db

<db> Matar rolled 1d20: [15]

<Saif> forget it, she's already a +21

<Matar> heh

<Saif> She notices the 5' and steps forward and casts

<Saif> @Matar?

<Matar> DM to d11d and then pa to strike at beastie

<Saif> * DM?

<Matar> Double Move

<Saif> ah

<Matar> db+19

<db> Matar rolled 1d20+19: [20]

<Matar> christ!

<Saif> roll...

<Thengal> Ouch

<Saif> Matar can thank Diana (and a really good attack bonus)

<Matar> what is the roll fer that now?

<Kat> *a plague

<Matar> thats a 1

<Matar> i miss

<Kat> * a plague

<Saif> is that with the +1 from the prayer?

<Matar> nope

<Matar> so 21

<Saif> A, a natural one, so that means it is actually -10, so 9

<Saif> and that does miss

<Missy> back

<Saif> ### you guys will have to help me catch those 1s and 20s since they won't be as noticable now that we're adding modifiers right into the roll.

<Saif> The monsters attack

<Saif> db d2

<db> Saif rolled 1d2: [1]

<Saif> The first attacks Thengal twice

<Saif> * AC 26 for Thengal

<Saif> db d20+12

<db> Saif rolled 1d20+12: [13]

<Saif> big miss

<Thengal> Correct, did #1 move over to me??

<Saif> oh, we were doing crit misses too

<Matar> that should be 30 with the haste or is that in there already?

<Saif> Matar, roll your crit miss threat above

<Matar> db

<db> Matar rolled 1d20: [16]

<Saif> db+13

<db> Saif rolled 1d20+13: [20]

<Saif> nobody fumbles

<Saif> * no, it is 2 that is attacking you, Thengal, just doing him first. 

<Saif> second attack

<Saif> db +7

<db> Saif rolled 1d20+7: [25]

<Saif> just misses

<Thengal> No new haste spell doesn't help ac

<Matar> sure it does

<Thengal> ok

<Matar> He gains a +4 haste bonus to AC

<Matar> You lose it whenever you would also lose a dodge bonus

<Castinar> yep unless he lost his dod.....eh.. nm

<Saif> the other elemental does a double move towards Castinar (which is what he should have done last round... duh)

<Saif> putting him right in front of C

<Thengal> Yes I see it now, so temp AC is 30 for me

<Saif> And Sane does something defensive

<Saif> That's it

<Saif> Updating map and grid...

<Thengal> Actually I forgot to mention that, I can use dodge feat vs #2

<Kat> *Sane is very defensive - He makes our prisoner invisible?

<Saif> K, map and grid are updated

<Saif> Thengal - K, remind me of that whenever I swing at you

<Saif> In general I'm going to want you guys to track any number that is a temp number, so things like Thengal's Boots of Speed and Dodge.

<Saif> Kat - nope, Sane is essentially a non-player.

<Kat> *k

<Saif> db 4d20

<db> Saif rolled 4d20: [43] 9 16 8 10

<Thengal> ok

<Saif> Round 3

<Saif> @Shadow?

<Castinar> move to E4A and fire a +2 arrow at #1

<Castinar> db d20+16

<db> Castinar rolled 1d20+16: [26]

<Saif> * If you move to F4A you'll be within your 30' range

<Saif> Also note you're attack will be at -4 since 1 is in melee combat with Castinar

<Castinar> Yup -- but can't --- um, nm forgot can move full and fire

<Saif> K, that hits

<Saif> roll damage (as less than 30' and with +1 for Prayer)

<Castinar> db d6+5

<db> Castinar rolled 1d6+5: [9]

<Castinar> +1 for prayer

<Saif> k

<Saif> @Amber?

<Amber> guard and listen to room where old man went.

<Matar> * shadow doesn't have precise shot?

<Saif> Amber, listen check please

<Castinar> no

<Amber> db d20+6

<db> Amber rolled 1d20+6: [21]

<Matar> how tall were these thingies?

<Amber>  forgot listen bonus was 5 last time, added +1 prayer

-> *Amber* you hear that rustling sound up on the balcony again - this time from the other direction

<Saif> Matar - 16'

<Saif> ish

<Saif> @Kat? 

* Amber calls out "theres movement on the balconies! " in common

* Kat will continue to rapid fire, but upon #1 and listen for others approaching. (Or, do you have to use Precise shot and not use Rapid Shot or what?)

<Saif> let me check... should be able to use both

<Castinar> can use both I think

<Matar> ah DM call then - if your target (or the part of your target you're aiming at, if it's a big target) is at least 10 feet away from the nearest ally, you can avoid the -4 penalty. (page 124 top left column)

<Saif> yes, can still do the rapid fire.  Precise shot is an "always on" type of thing

<Kat> +1 arrows

<Saif> roll

<Kat> db d20+14

<db> Kat rolled 1d20+14: [16]

<Saif> misses

<Kat> db d20+14

<db> Kat rolled 1d20+14: [18]

<Saif> misses

<Kat> db d20+9

<db> Kat rolled 1d20+9: [28]

<Saif> hits

<Kat> db d6+3

<db> Kat rolled 1d6+3: [9]

<Saif> k

<Saif> @Cast?

<Thengal> Not that it matter, but that was a 19 you rolled Kat, do arrows threaten a crit on a 19?

<Castinar> Most feats are extraordinary abilities -- according to 126, using an extraordinary ability is usually not an action becasue ... happen in a reactive fashion --- those eo abilities that are actions are usually standard actions that cannot be disrupted, do not require concentration, and do not provoke AoO --- decriptions of these abilities note any exceptions (pg 126 PH)

<Castinar> so should stack

<Castinar> Cast will ready Fin and Shield

<Saif> k

<Kat> *Thengal, no and Kat doesn't have the feat that would make it so

<Thengal> ok

<Saif> <Oh, come on, a city CRAWLING with drow and probably fishfaces and you find THIS to fight?  Harump.>

<Saif> Nikki does something defensive just as something unexpected happens

<Castinar> <It wasn't my choice --- besides, I didn't want to chance you mistaking Ari for an enemy in the heat of battle>

<Thengal> <Arrogant weapon if ever me knew one

<Saif> * reading something real quick...

<Matar> * War and Peace?

<Kat> * Gone with the Wind?

<Castinar> Mists of Avalon

<Kat> * Hobbit?

<Saif> * trying to find out how "dive" attacks are treated

<Amber> *here come the gargoyls..ugh!

<Saif> Diana is happily standing there, contemplating her next spell, when a winged figure slashes by her

<Castinar> Treat like charge?

<Saif> attaking her multiple times

<Saif> * that's what I'm thinking, but this isn't really from high enough to be a real dive, more of a fly-by attack

<Thengal> *actually is trated as grenade like missiles when the drow start throwing goblin servants at us

<Saif> Diana's AC is...

<Saif> 20

<Kat> * With the Pray?

<Saif> and the... gargoyle.. gets 4 attacks

<Saif> * yes, 19 on sheet right now w/o prayer

<Saif> db+6

<db> Saif rolled 1d20+6: [24]

<Saif> db+6

<db> Saif rolled 1d20+6: [22]

<Saif> db+4

<db> Saif rolled 1d20+4: [9]

<Saif> db+4

<db> Saif rolled 1d20+4: [17]

<Saif> both claws hit

<Saif> db 2d4

<db> Saif rolled 2d4: [4] 2 2

<Saif> and the bad guys draw first blood

<Saif> * their first blood, that is

<Saif> * actually, elementals don't bleed, neither do gargoyles, so they'll draw all the blood in this fight

<Thengal> No I think you had it right, I don't think these things bleed

<Saif> K, here's my question, does Diana get an AoO as it flies past her?  In ground combat she would, but how about a flyby?

<Matar> theres a skill that prevents it

<Matar> ferget what it is tho

<Kat> *Is she threatening the area they came into?

<Castinar> I would treat like a charge I think --- if charge allows it, then flyby too

<Matar> at least there is a ride-by skill paladins get with their mounts that doesnt provoke an AoO

<Matar> pg 84 ride-by attack

<Castinar> Hmmm... charge doesn't allow a ride by anyway you stop when you attack thus no AoO

<Matar> its a feat

<Matar> i think munsters get something similar if they're buff enuff

<Saif> Which I would think a creature that mainly attacks by swooping down on its prey would have.  We can discuss this further in e-mail, but for now fly-by attacks do not provoke AoO.

<Saif> moving on

<Saif> @Thengal?

<Thengal> Full attack on #2 and extra attack as well

<Saif> roll 'em

<Castinar> ride by do not either (the Feat)

<Thengal> db d20+14

<db> Thengal rolled 1d20+14: [32]

<Thengal> db d20+9

<db> Thengal rolled 1d20+9: [22]

<db> Thengal rolled 1d10+8: [14]

<Thengal> db d10+8

<db> Thengal rolled 1d10+8: [13]

<Thengal> *much better

<Saif> #2 is now looking damaged (those two attacks did almost as much as all the previous ones)

<Saif> Unfortunately, #3 (the gargoyle that attacked Diana) isn't alone.  He has friends.  Several of them.  They all swoop down now.

<Saif> Amber, Kat, and Castinar are all attacked

<Saif> oops, not Cast, Narlan

<Saif> Amber's AC is 24

<Saif> db+6

<Saif> nice rolls, but none hit

<Saif> Narlan only has an AC of 16 (including both the P/evil and Prayer)

<Matar> well all the gargs arnt clumped conviently are they?

<Saif> no

<Matar> bummer

<Castinar> Defender more or less same as in 2e?

<Matar> then MI

<Saif> pretty much - has some nice defensive abilities that adds to her AC or can attack as they fly by

<Saif> K, D casts MI

<Saif> db d4+2

<Matar> um i open up on this thingie

<Kat> brb

<Matar> did

<Saif> roll

<Matar> how do multi attacks work now?

<Matar> it's just -5 for second?

<Saif> with the haste you'll take your full attacks (20/15), then can take a partial attack at 20

<Thengal> Your extra attack for the haste is at same bonus as your 1st attack

<Saif> * I think I need monsters with better ACs

<Matar> ah okay

<Castinar> *Haven't you been saying that for 4 years?

<Missy> lol

<Matar> right so I'll be arrogant and power attack for 5

<Matar> db+14

<db> Matar rolled 1d20+14: [27]

<Saif> barely hits, but does so

<Matar> db d10+17

<db> Matar rolled 1d10+17: [27]

<Matar> hurm that doesn't kill it does it?

<Saif> With a sound more like a small earthquake than a groan, the elemental collapses into a mound of shattered marble.

<Saif> So, you want to take your Great Cleave on Thengal?  <G>

*** Diana has joined #nightbelow

<Thengal> Ouch

<Diana> hihi

<Matar> i only need little cleave for that

<Diana> sorry im late

<Saif> that leaves you witha partial action

<Thengal> Hi Seth

<Saif> Hey Diana.

<Amber> hi

<Matar> does charge increase your movement?

<Saif> Matar can fill you in on the situation once he decides on his partial action

<Saif> erm...

<Diana> Date with the girlfriend, her dads birthday

<Castinar> 2x speed for charge

<Diana> he did, i just cast mirror image, looking at map right now

<Saif> you can double, yes

<Matar> ill charge this guy from the flank

<Matar> power attack of 8

<Saif> hum.. yes, you can charge as a partial action

<Matar> db+11

<db> Matar rolled 1d20+11: [14]

<Matar> bah

<Saif> even with the +2 from the charge that misses

<Saif> where exactly did you want to end up?

<Matar> and +1 for prayer and +2 for flank attack that still misses

<Matar> g8b

<Saif> * please add ALL bonuses in before you roll your attack

<Saif> that hits - barely

<Matar> sorry

<Matar> db d10+21

<db> Matar rolled 1d10+21: [25]

<Matar> * that's +12 norm +8 for pa and +1 for prayer

<Saif> db +12

<db> Saif rolled 1d20+12: [25]

<db> Saif rolled 2d8+11: [19] 3 5

<Saif> Ow.  That hurt

<Castinar> Yup

<Saif> 44 points of damage - 6 away from a possible instant death.

<Matar> doesn't that have to be one blow?

<Saif> ah, true

<Saif> not just one round

<Saif> and again, Sane does something while invisible

<Thengal> I thought it had to come from a single source

<Saif> end of the round

<Kat> *Isn't it 50% of your hit points in one round?

<Saif> questions?  Updating map and grid.

<Kat> *too

<Matar> ugh really need to get Judd to update db to show both the roll and the total

<Amber> *are gargolys living or 'constructs'?

<Matar> the math is going to suck trying to figure threats and such

<Kat> *How far can one more and still attack?

<Castinar> living I think

<Castinar> Just not from this world --- from the elemental plane of earth

<Missy> sounds right to me

<Amber> k thanks

<Matar> Kat: you can move you full move and then take a single attack

<Matar> there are feats that much with that for ranged weapons tho

<Matar> er much = muck

<Kat> feats for moving and attacking with a ranged weapon?

<Kat> What feat?

<Saif> Map and grid are updated

<Matar> hmm might be thinking of mounted archery

<Saif> questions?

<Diana> Question: how many images do i still have left?

<Saif> 3 images, Diana

<Matar> ah no - shot on the run

<Diana> thanks

<Saif> OK, let's press on

<Matar> Saif: 1d4 + 2?

<Matar> dont think we actually rolled it

<Saif> Look at it this way - we're on round 4 and it's still fairly early.  3e seems to be moving faster.

<Saif> Matar - yes, and rolled a 3

* Castinar agrees

<Saif> So, @Shadow?

<Matar> just checkin

<Thengal> brb

* Castinar hesitates half of a split second, torn between helping Castinar and their rescuee --- decides to help the rescuee by sending 2 +2 arrows against gargoyle

<Amber> question is searing light a 1 person ray attack or several at once? spell unclear to me.

<Saif> Which gargoyle, W?

<Castinar> 3

<Saif> Amber - all rays are single target

<Amber> k

<Saif> roll, Shadow

<Castinar> db d20+18 (within 30, right?)

<db> Castinar rolled 1d-9+29: [22]

<Saif> ( AC is 16)

<Saif> what the heck was that?

<Castinar> eh?

<Castinar> I don't know!

<Castinar> didn't like the extra info I think

<Saif> roll again - as long as it isn't a one you're fine

<Castinar> db d20+18

<db> Castinar rolled 1d20+18: [34]

<Saif> hits

<Thengal> back

<Castinar> db d20+13

<Castinar> db 2d6+8

<db> Castinar rolled 2d6+8: [11] 1 2

<Saif> k

<Saif> @Amber?

<Amber> activate boot, hover, cast searing light - med range at nearest flying monster, ranged touch attk.

<Saif> Nearest would be #6, roll to hit

<Amber> db d20+9

<db> Amber rolled 1d20+9: [17]

<Saif> barely, but that hits

<Amber>  i think for ranged?

<Amber> db 3d8

<db> Amber rolled 3d8: [14] 8 5 1

<Saif> * hold on, where are you getting the +9 from?

<Saif> your base melee attack is 5, +1 from prayer = 6

<Amber> ranged...sling/shuriken..oh, melee not ranged

<Saif> well - that is something I had a question about.  What do you guys think, is a "ranged touch attack" the base missile or base melee?

<Matar> its missile

<Thengal> I would think missile

<Matar> its a ranged attack

<Saif> Ah, I'm thinking about AC and touch attacks, nevermind

<Saif> so 7 +1 = 8, which is a 16, which still barely hits

<Saif> 14 points damage

<Saif> is there a ST?

<Amber> none

<Saif> k

<Saif> @Kat?

* Kat moves to m7d and fires at 5 with a +3 arrow of return and listen for anything else approaching.

<Castinar> <nod> will use the Dodge feat for +1 ac

* Saif cheers for the gargoyle

<Saif> I think you have to declare what you're dodging against in your action... checking

<Matar> ya

<Castinar> sorry -- was checking to see if I had it

<Saif> Yes, would have had to have done that in your action

<Matar> silly feat since it has to spec one thing imho

<Amber> *I'll try to heal next time :)

<Castinar> *Have him move under balcony?

<Saif> K, he'll move back

<Thengal> *that was the idea I had of rallying you to the corridor, limits the gargoyles options

<Saif> Note the balcony doesn't run along the back wall, so he moves to the right

<Saif> @Diana?

* Diana casts Magic Missiles at the one attacking Narlan (CT: 1 action, Range: 180', Damage: 4d4+4). She will use Concentration to Combat Cast (to avoid AoO).

<Thengal> Can I see whats down the corridor when the map is up pls?

<Kat> *What is left to attack?  (map should answer this one)

<Matar> i should get an AoO if he tries to go swoop someone else - he is in my threatened area now

<Amber> *Diana, you plan on healing Narlan or should Amber?

<Thengal> He can probably use a heal from each of you

<Diana> * I can if amber is busy

<Diana> * I was also thinking of mming a gargoyle again, maybe kill it

<Kat> *Did one try to attack Kat?  Did it slam into the wall when it did this swoop attack?

<Amber> Not busy now, was going t draw staff and ready it and hover over Narlan to protect him.

<Castinar> Don't think you were attacked yet, kat

<Saif> Grid and map updated

<Kat> *Are there any bets that Val comes back unharmed with Ari?

<Saif> There are still 4 gargoyles flying around

<Amber> *singed beard is all he'll have. :)

<Saif> Note that Narlan has run over next to the wall under the balcony

<Saif> He's looking down the hallway

<Matar> doh! havent been doing the glove!

<Saif> Kat - no, you were not attacked this round

* Matar spanks himself.  It looks painful and yet.... er nevermind.

<Kat> *that's odd, I thought I moved Kat to m7d

<Saif> Matar - yes, you'll get your AoO unless he does a double move away from you

<Saif> Kat - yes, you should be at M7d

<Thengal> What's down the corridor?

<Saif> Thengal - walls and tapestries and lots of other things except for bad guys that look threatening.

<Castinar> check general health of all (specially aour friend)

<Amber> "run north the way we're supposed to go!"

* Kat will continue to listen for other foes

<Saif> The only one badly wounded is Castinar.  Shadow is down a bit, as is Diana

<Saif> Want a new grid?

<Amber> Well, AMber will fly urging Capt onward.

<Matar> seth and i gotta run home - our ride is leavin.  we got dsl tho so back in 10ish

<Saif> Thengal - I assume you shut off your boots?

<Castinar> Eh -- we don't have our escort any longer --- remembering what the old man said, he'll inspect everyone's "costume" making sure we look harmless again, then gets ready to lead our way out

<Saif> Matar - we might not be here, well we should be, but we'll be wrapping it up shortly

<Diana> later, be back in a bit

<Diana> ok

*** Diana has quit IRC

<Thengal> Yeah, I'll also give Cast my potion of healing

<Saif> Cast - you chug the potion?

<Castinar> Um --- got one or two already --- hold onto it, Thengal

<Saif> Diana - is gone.  But I assume she drops her mirror images (that would be a little too suspecious)

<Thengal> OK, ye looks like ye needed it

<Castinar> heh -- good idea <G>

<Amber> *if were in 'disquise' again, Amber will turn off her boots.  Used 5'min? time?

<Saif> Any other healing?

<Castinar> *Mielikki's magic helped some -- I'll hold the potion until its really needed

<Saif> Amber - less than a minute

<Amber> *gotta remember to keep track

<Amber> *oh, used to each round being a min. :)

<Saif> Party wounded: Cast 35/69, Diana 31/35, Shadow 40/58

<Saif> So you bug out?

<Kat> and listen

<Castinar> Yup

<Saif> OK, I want to do the end of this scene, transition, and set up for the next scene in e-mail (so I get it all right)

<Amber> yeah leave the evidence to the old man and mage fighting...they did it, not us!

<Saif> that means we're done for the night.

<Thengal> Not bad, got 5 rounds plus in only 3 hours

<Saif> * the old drow will show back up just long enough to get you guys out of the compound.

<Amber> I think it went pretty well, being new and all....and no fireballs!

<Castinar> Yup --- gonna have to consider something like this when I start 3E

<Saif> Any other questions or comments?

<Saif> Thanks to all those that were paying close attention to the rules and catching the little stuff.  That's the only way we're going to learn.

<Kat> Do we get back safely?

<Saif> You'll get down to the docks.  After that... who knows?

<Saif> Besides, we've got to let Kim have a chance to try out the 3e rules, right?

<Kat> *hint -- combat at the docks

<Kat> *hint -- bad move Saif.  Kim hates combat.

<Thengal> Hmm underwater combat coming up?? could be fun

<Saif> * hint - Saif knows, that's why he's grinning

<Ari> I refuse to learn combat

<Castinar> I know that grin---- watch out, everyone <LOL>

<Amber> sa;ying my prayers already <G>

<Saif> I'm going to call it a night.  I've got class again tomorrow since we missed out on Monday.  Any last questions for me?

<Kat> * curse them all, Ari, just curse them all... wait... Ari kicks everyone in the shins.

<Ari> thtas what she will end up doing in combat. kicking in the shin

<Castinar> none here

<Ari> mostly kicking the DM in the shin

<Thengal> Nothing I can think of

* Saif has terribly caloused shins

<Saif> K, I'm outta here.  Thanks again.  We should have much the same experience next week, but with new friends to play with.
