Kole getting stuck with Elsa on his team is the best possibility.

I forget.

How does Krylo feel about mounted combat?

Krylo · 01-31-2011, 10:13 PM

@McTahr, not much time yet, but it's fine to edit before the deadline, usually (if everyone has posted before the deadline I probably won't wait for the deadline).

@Riin, pretend it's exalted, and stunt it. It's all okay if you stunt it well enough. And MAYBE make some rolls to stay mounted if things get hairy. Not sure it it'd be ride or athletics in the case of a human's shoulder. I'll come to a conclusion before combat though.

Would Kole have to do rolls for performing combat with a Tarut on his shoulder?

Edit - Kind of an irrelevant question since you do all the rolls anyway.

Something that didn't fit well into my post:

Sometime during Jhennek's distracting talk, Arden would have passed the item she found in her search of the third floor to Bello.

Arden Loses x1 Pepper Bomb!

Bello Gains x1 Pepper Bomb!

I can't recall what the item's exact effect is, but I know it might inflict stun if thrown. Krylo knows the details.

Edit: If Krylo insists, I'll edit the pass into the post, but until I hear otherwise, I'll assume it'll suffice.

Yes! A chance to manipulate someone! I've been waiting for this since we left Rios!

Also, Pepper Bombs (or Stun Bombs, as Teal's PM called them) don't appear to be in the book. What's up with that?

shiiiiiiiiiiit

EDIT: BAD PULL EVERYBODY RUN OUT OF THE INSTANCE

EDIT 2 ELECTRIC BOOGALOO: Okay, so the udrafresk appears to be eating the dingos with low HP, so we don't have to go all out in killing them. Just wound them enough for him to get the scent of their blood and move in while we try to recover. Spell absorption isn't constant, so I'm thinking it has to specifically target a casting spell in order to absorb it. I don't know if using cure is going to be reliable, so if anyone has some potions, you may want to use them to get the wounded party members up to speed.

Long shot idea: Do we have any means whatsoever of tainting the dingos in order to knock out the monster and capture it once the dingo is eaten?

Trip over, posting started!

To point out the obvious, the udrafresk's arms clearly do something annoying. I'd guess the other arm is the attack arm.

So it's a matter of whether it's the sort of boss where it's a lot easier to take out the limbs first, or whether it's the kind where you should just ignore them and go for the face.

And whether chopping up its arms will stop us getting that sweet, sweet bounty.

Actually, on that point is it OK to just hit it with regular attacks or is there some subdual option we should be using?

Overcast · 02-01-2011, 06:18 AM

I mean most of our capture options are completely dependent on the thing being in a bleed out state so I think we want to beat the piss out of it. I think the dingo's are doomed though.
