Awesome graphics! And is that Master Roshi in the last frame...? Good luck to all the new players (and maybe some old ones too...). You'll need it with these hosts. 12 year old Godfather, yeah right.

Congrats to the winners! And thanks for all of the players as well as Zepher, Waterbrick Down, and Cornelius Murdock for organizing this. And the awards were very entertaining. Fitting that they were posted along the Oscars.

I'm looking forward to what the second half of the Pagoda in Quest 50 has to bring. And I thought the enemies before were tough... It's times like these when a Druid would be really nice.

Very cool minifigs, autorazr. I especially like the diver for added retro flavor.

"Yes, have fought long and hard, Jun. But we are ready for anything that may come our way." "Alright, the left door it is." Battle Order: Tarn Cinna Tesni Namyrra Cut Hybros Hybros Jun

Hybros feels the reviving power of a Phoenix Essence, and he stirs. He awakens to find himself in the Pagoda again. "Damn... Well thank you for reviving me, here is a Phoenix Essence Namyrra. And I see you took care of the threat without me... Let us return upstairs." Hybros teleports the party to the Sky Room as soon as Namyrra is finished receiving the Essence.

I would agree. As long as I get to kill an army of little guys, I'm happy. :tongue;

OOC: Exactly what Quarryman said. But if it is too much trouble for you, then I suppose you can run them simultaneously.

Hybros lays unconscious in the Carp Pond, the water lapping gently around him. He thinks of a warm place, far from the Pagoda... OOC: Okay, here is the strategy that you can autorun for, Sandy. - Cinna will hit Tesni with the Healing Staff at all times. - Tesni will attack with Mellt from the front for as long as she has 39 health or more - Xut will attack the General only if Tesni does not. - Namyrra will drink a Grand Tonic after her ether reaches 1 if that occurs. Of course, everyone should confirm these actions by posting. Battle Order: Namyrra Cinna Tesni Xut Tarn Hybros Hybros

Yes, I think it was updated/clarified with Hoke's situation, and I missed it when the same thing happened in Quest 50. But they wouldn't always cancel each other out if you're doing it that way. Darkness would always deal double elemental damage, and the physical and elemental damage dealt by Spellblade are calculated differently. I would also agree that we should just get rid of a headache of an item, if it weren't for the fact that we still need at least a pseudo-healer for the remaining half of the Pagoda.

Sorry to keep going on about this, but if the Healing Rod overrides some Shield skills, then the same should apply for all. Particularly, the Battle Mage's. Previously, when a Battle Mage attacked with a healing staff, the rod would heal and then deal elemental damage because of the nature of the shield skill when a 1 was rolled. This was usually counter intuitive, as it KOd party members rather than heal them. Since the Mystic Knight can't deal AoE elemental damage to enemies with the healing staff, shouldn't these two cases be treated the same? I don't remember if the Battle Mage was already changed to reflect is, though.

OOC: Yes I see you updated the rules for the healing rod, or clarified them. It makes sense to have the healing staff work this way, but it just wasn't clear to me before.

OOC: ...okay then. Even though Spellspin is elemental, and the class description says it affects enemies? Your call I guess. Hybros attacks the General with his Twin Kunai from the front row. Same Battle Order.

OOC: yes please, autorun. :) if Cinna fully heals Tesni, she will heal anyone else inured in the order of least remaining health.

"...I have an idea. Cinna, keep healing us with the Healing Staff. Your powers might overflow, and hit the General without taking the risk of fighting him head-on. Xut can prevent him from dealing free hits in the meantime. Hehehe..." "Namyrra, you can make better use of this Empyreal Staff than I, take it." Looking down at Tarn, knocked unconscious again, he added, "You had better give Tarn that shield once he is back up..." Hybros and Jun spent their remaining turns resting.

The schedule is also flexible, depending on how many people sign up. I would definitely like to have some returning Dastan questers.

Not planned, sorry. Sign ups will be open for a while, though, so you can finish up in the fields and then come back to the hall? I know you wanted to be a WW, so I would love to have you. Thanks. :) And I think Zepher said he wanted to reunite you and Ella at some point... So not all hope is lost!

"Oof..." Hybros picked himself up from the Pond. "Finish the Tiger." Hybros attacked the Winged Tiger from the front row with the Twin. Kunai, directing the second strikes at the Flying General. Jun sits silently in the back row. Battle Order Xut Namyrra Hybros Hybros Tarn Tesni Cinna Jun

Denerii* But yes, sorry that you can't make it for this one, Chromeknight! But don't be too disappointed, for reasons. As an FYI for anyone considering signing up for Quest 59, I expect it to last no longer than 1.5 months.

"Okay everyone, focus on the weaker two enemies. Xut can hold off the General for now. Tarn, use Lion's Heart for now." Hybros gulps down a Nostrum before attacking the Flying Tiger from the front row with his Twin Kunai, (aiming the second blade at the Soaring Sage). Jun waits until he is needed.

"Darkness? This is fog, Namyrra. Apparrently Fenario has an abundance of that...." Hybros and Jun followed Namyrra through the door.

Hybros looks and feels around for a door, or anything of interest. Jun does the same. Same BO.
