Benji attacks Direwolf C from the back row. Same BO

I don't know, there are a lot of rangers who have also become assassins. Also there is a minority of clerics in the game so I'm not sure if its fair to compare them exactly, but I think you're right about the mages...

If anyone wanted an aquamarine I think that my buddy Xander has two that he'd love to get rid of

And I thought you were a nice person

It didn't change the situation really, and anyways everyone appreciates honest people QM Note: Sorry to say, but since you're blinded you can't make any physical attacks. That includes attacks from the back-row and front-row, as long as you are attacking with a weapon.

Seriously, it seems that the more difficult the quest, the more profitable the assassin is!

QM Note: Oh yeah Fixed. Also, Riley's item's description is fixed as well.

Brawl Round Three: Boomingham (with Scupperer) vs. Dimon - SHIELD: Guardian Angel (Party protected from all damage and negative effects next round!)

The orc starts yelling angrily, damaging everyone's eardrums and reducing 5 health from every battle member, restoring full health to the angry orc. A lot more other stuff happens, like Sorrow earning more gold, Alexander getting spit in the eyes, and all the enemies being considerably weakened. "Hey guys, need any help with that brawl?"

There is a 50/50 chance that for each party member that joins the battle, another brawler will join the enemy's side.

As for the unlimited quest - Sandy, did you come up with all these killer specials for these hard enemies, because for some reason I have the feeling that CMP is adding murderous specials in order to try and (kill us) get us out of there as soon as possible

Benji turns to the direwolf, "Do I know you?" "Ugh, never mind. It must've been a relative. I'll attack Direwolf B from the back row." Battle order...? Not sure who everyone else will be attacking. EDIT: Battle Order: Docken Carvenhall Un'thor Nihai Althior Althior "Althior, for now please just heal the elephant thing and the nasty dog, so we can avoid getting free hits from them. Or if one of us get damaged, you could heal the elephant and afterwards the person who got damaged."

I have to admit, the ending of the battle in #48 was truely epic

"Ok then, so I suppose now that we're done with that we're ready to move to the sanctuary, and from there the Howling Hills!"

"How kind of you."

"On second thought, we don't have many meads in our possession currently, so lets save them for the boss battle. I still think that Althior hastened would be a good idea, though."

QM Note: It seems that I didn't really phrase Riley's cape correctly, I intended that he is always lucky on his shield roll. I'll rephrase soon.

"I'll be giving you the sandals, Thormy, but if you could give a few coins to Barty then I'm sure he'd appreciate it " Loot Division: Althior - 2 smelling salts Docken - 2 smelling salts Carvenhall - golden fleece Nihai - winged sandals Unthor - golden fleece Benji leads the party to the central sanctuary, and afterwards to the Howling Hills. On the way there Benji almost drinks a mead, but in the end he puts it back into his bag to save it for when they get to the dangerous dragon. "Althior, perhaps take a sniff of one of those new smelling salts you got. The next battle will be a toughie!"

"Hoorah! I knew that we could do it I would like one of the fleece, who wants the second? And who is interested in those fancy shmancy Winged Sandals?"

Brawl Round Two: Boomingham (with Scupperer) vs. Dimon - Critical Hit (((10*2)+21+4)*2*2=180 damage, bleeding) Nagure vs. Rusty Camel - Extra Critical Hit ((14*3)+14=56 damage) >Sorrow vs. Orcie - Shield: Gold Reaper / Special Damage (91*1.5=137 gold reaped, 4411 Undead and Gamblin' Brawler's assassinated!) >Sorrow vs. Orcie - Aim / Shield: Gold Reaper (60*1.5=90 gold reaped, 45 no assassinations) >Thalion vs. Undead Rusty Camel with Ice - Special Damage (Spitfire, Thalion and Rusty Camel blinded) >Alexander vs. Rusty Camel - Hit (15 damage) >Riley vs. Gamblin' Brawler Rusty Camel - Shield: Mixture (4 6 4 3 - Smile of the Goods - causes the blessed effect to all allies) >Riley vs. Gamblin' Brawler Rusty Camel - Damage (7/2=4 damage) Dimon: bleeding: -5 health Nagure: banana attack: -3 health Alexander: blessed: +3 health Boomingham: blessed: +3 health Nagure: blessed: +3 health Sorrow: blessed: +3 health Thalion: blessed: +3 health The party performs powerful hits weakening the enemies considerably, all to be outmatched by Sorrow assassinated a decent part of the brawlers and stealing a heckuvalotta gold at the same time.

Ok then. Benji decides to switch targets and to attack Mountain Goat A from the back row. Please autoroll until one of us has less than 10 health remaining. Thanks Battle Order: Docken Carvenhall Un'thor Nihai Emorith

"Chicken."

"Ok, everyone attack Hippogriff, and then when he's dead attack Goat B, and afterwards the first goat." Benji attacks the hippogriff from the back row, unless its already dead then he attacks Mountain Goat B , unless its already dead in that case he attacks Mountain Goat A. Oops, it seems we have two slightly different plans...

For starters, I always drop too much good loot on my quests...

QM Note: Yes you're right, I forgot about the counterstrike.

The only thing about dumping the power stats, is how would the encouraged effect work? That is probably the only thing that relies on power, and also weakened
