pog. I'll do that tomorrow morning, since it's extremely late.

 

[Sizniche]

by this morning, i mean this evening. Today is shaping up to be a busy day at work for me :C

 

[caecgirl]

target ac is 15...you want your roll to be equal to that or greater

 

[Tachyon]

That big dino is prolly pretty fast, Kritas won't be able to outrun it. I GUESS he'll try and help out in the fight instead, lol.

I actually just realized that Kritas doesn't have any means of escaping danger once he's in it. He kinda relies on foresight and staying hidden to survive. It's a good thing he has made such STRONK friends.

 

[caecgirl]

if u really want to, zaal can make sure you escape but this thing's almost dead, surely you have some magic that will work

 

[Random Word]

Orrin is real good at breaking things!

Ok I definitely misjudged its durability lol. Still, nice to get a chance to flex LGT.

I'll try to finally get that description up tonight, sorry I didn't yesterday

It's cool, Kritas will pretend to be brave!

Dude, you did 14 Hit Doce worth of damage! You could've smashed a giant in half with that hit lol

Well caec did say it took the other group 4 rounds dealing straight damage, I thought we were just getting ultra-hardballed :vP

Yea LGT is an absolute early-game hammer. It'll get even worse when we get to level 2 and Orrin has Faster Than Thought, effectively letting him potentially do two of those before an enemy can even act

 

[Sizniche]

It's getting late so I might not get that description in, but I'll edit it into my post so you guys can continue the turn order in the meantime. In case you need to know it, most of what i intend to say is that something audibly cracked in its jaw :vD

hmmmm i just took damage reduction off of it as per player request...i can put it back...low HP triggered damage reduction...

 

[Random Word]

How does damage reduction work in this game? If I recall, in D&D DR reduces HP damage by a flat amount if you don't meet some criteria (like being magical enough), but nothing has HD DR, does it?

 

[caecgirl]

i decided using HP AND HD is too complex, but it doesnt matter what u have under the hood...DR will protect it. Why can't I just start using it the d&d way?

 

[Random Word]

Well, in D&D DR only applies to certain kinds of damage, like 'fire' or 'bashing' and usually doesn't apply to magic weapons.

DR is also incredibly strong in a system that naturally caps out at 1d4 damage without something like Loosening God's Teeth! DR 4 'everything' would make something functionally invincible against most Godbound tier opponents!

What sort of DR did you want to give out, and against what damage would it apply? If Caesura does emotional damage, or Orrin makes his fists into magic weapons, or Kritas casts a spell, would the DR apply to all of that?

 

[caecgirl]

I could make it a 1d3 roll with no mod against all damage....or unkillable like from raid shadow legends where nothing can reduce it's HP to 0 until it's next turn...open to other suggestions

 

[Tachyon]

I would prefer not to incorporate DR at all. I feel like it would push the game towards higher numbers, which I think is something the design actively tries to avoid.

 

[Random Word]

A 'last stand' power that halts damage at 1 HP unless already at 1 HP seems perfectly reasonable, but could be obnoxious if combined with healing.

I don't think DR is a good idea for this game, unless there are existing powers that grant it. If DR exists, it should be against a specific damage type an enemy is resistant to, like a god of fire having DR against fire damage.

until...? its next action? I was leaning toward that ruling anyway. some enemies have an ability like dnds fast healing only slower, but those enemies have clear weaknesses. this is not such an enemy.

 

[Random Word]

Are we waiting on Zaal to take his turn?

 

[caecgirl]

we are waiting for the GM to make a ruling....but zaal can take his turn

 

[Random Word]

Okay Let us know when you're ready to go. We'll roll with whatever you decide.

 

[caecgirl]

want him to go offensive or bolster allies?

 

[caecgirl]

ruling is "unkillable" buff
