The rules are tough on falling damage so this works, even though it may seem like high damage. As written, falling fifty feet is 15d6.

@Ireth,

I would think Cadell could drop a rock. Was Keit injured? Well… I'm not playing a healer, maybe that's why I'm not keeping track. I thought Batos and Hall were hurt in melee, but didn't think Keit got hit.

According to Keit's post, she's unconscious. Well, not anymore now that Liadan gave her 4 HP (or possibly 6 if Cadell's song affects that too). But yeah.

As for dropping rocks... what kind of check would that need? What do I roll? (Been looking at past posts here that seem to discuss it, but I'm a bit confused.)

I think throwing a rock is 1d20+DEX, damage is 1d6+5…+STR? And maybe the 1d6 is for big rocks, so I guess ask SP what Cadell can do.

(Maybe let Batos attack first. If he can kill the remaining enemy, he doesn't need rescuing.)

But as for Keit, she posted herself as unconscious*, but she never actually lost any HP from that failed DEX check.

*(In a PM conversation with SP, asking about Nissa's options for making a rescue attempt, SP said Keit posted herself as unconscious and in the water. He had nothing to do with that! Maybe she misinterpreted the severity of failing the check?)

Also, Exalt adds +2 to attribute checks for one turn. Damage, hit rolls, and other numbers are not affected. Spell-casting counts as an INT/WIS check, I think. But not health gained from a healing spell.

@Something, I think Nissa's targets are blocked by the stairs.

@SP, if that^ is correct, since his character would know that, any chance that attack could be redirected to a demon by the cliff rather than waste a perfectly good roll?

If wizards are allowed to throw rocks as a feat of strength, Batos could be rescued. If a wizard can only drop a rock straight down, Aldar has just enough movement to crush the climber nearest Aliron.

I didnt know that actually, I knew strength was probably my worst attribute, But I did not add any +1's or anything. Im also not in the minus so I didnt have to add any there, I thought anyone could throw them, and the attibutes just gave you a bonus. I was originally going to just drop one on one of the climbers, however I thought that they were already in the cave.

Bad posting on my part. The two on the cliffs are climbing. There is one in the cave that Baldhart saw go in (not on map), and maybe Alin saw that too.

ummm Batos is down to five health -and unless i am mistaken since he is below nine health unconcious. That and... well i am not gonna have him fight while that low he'll need extreme luck in that scenario. (and i just tested a roll and hit a four....)

You guys are gonna see a nasty side of keit now.... and i checked her mana she can cast three spells if they cost 4 mana each, then will have to wait to gain one more mana before being able to cast again. how long does that take?

If he has health*, make him attack. I'm not sure who can save him (if Nissa could in one turn, she would have), but Batos is more likely to survive if he attacks than if he does nothing, seeing how he's the only target and the fish demon is out to get him.

Cadell may be able to drop a rock, but still, I'd see if Batos can take care of his own opponent rather than trust a rock to save him. (Friendly fire would be very bad!) Bressel killed one, so if Batos kills the other he may get out of this mess alive.



*STEALTH EDIT - He does have health because SP's post says he does. As my pappy used to say,

"When in doubt, go with the GM call that says your guy still has health."

@SP I hope everything is fine there!

2 spells. Don't forget that any spellcasting with negative mana faces a heavy penalty.

You talked about test rolls and it reminded me that you're still not using the Dice Room at all. Rollz Dice Room works regardless of you having access of your Unseen Servant account or not, they are unrelated. If you have trouble using the room, just tell us so I can make you a walkthrough with screenshots.

Playing off what Nihal said about limited magic, I suggest you try Batos' attack first. If he can take care of that last enemy, he's safe, and Keit can expend her energy in getting off of those stairs and save her MP. (Entangle is good if you have many enemies clustered over plants.)

Don't forget the rope. What's holding the end on the cliffside? Is it tied or hooked?

Going to try to post in just a bit. I am trying to get a map together, but I keep getting pulled away from the computer.

Also - when it comes to rolls that you're posting in the thread, please use one of the dice servers set up. Also, keep in mind that the dice server logs ALL rolls and everyone can see it. So if you're rolling twice because you don't like the first roll you got, everyone in the game can see that you did that. That's one reason we're using the dice servers. So please just post your first roll and go with it :)
