    Hybros repeats.

    I have to say, I really like the new looks for Atramor and Arthur. It will be interesting to see how these new classes play. So far, even though Arthur could use a bit more luck, the build seems to be really good as a debuff/support role. Power up spells with Forecast while flinging scroll castings with every turn. The Assassin/Necromancer combo should be interesting as well.

    "Thormanil, would you mind taking the Skirmishers? They can't harm you, but if left unattended they will change the order in which the enemies deal free hits..."

    Yeah, I've invented a few items myself, early on in Heroica. I believe in Quest 18 I had a flute (before instruments were in the game) that was only suitable to mages and clerics, so basically a staff. And there was also a greatsword (Sword of Decay) that was suitable to knights, barbarians and mages. Both of those have been retconned, however. Quest 29 also had the Twin Broadswords (WP:20, dual-strike, user cannot use a shield, suitable to knights only), but I still think something like that is acceptable because the tradeoff of the item is between dual strike and defense specifically for the tanky classes (also, this was before Expert Classes so I could extend the suitability to Regulators as well). Whereas there's really no point in restricting items to just a few classes for minimal bonuses.

    "Leave the Rangers, Docken or Thormanil can take them out with a counterstrike. Ellaria, you could try to Nurture yourself or Arx. I will handle the Alchemists." Hybros attacks the Alchemists from the front row with darkness, twice. Suggested Battle Order: Docken Docken Thormanil Ellaria Hybros Hybros Arx

    I'd say not, because spears are unsuitable to mage classes except Battle Mages and Mimes. So the weapon is basically limited to those classes.

    Not really sure that these items should exist like this. A gem that's useless to all except Evokers and gives a small bonus? And you can't get rid of it by imbuing or selling, so it would be permanently in someone's inventory without being used... Why not make it an artifact instead, giving Evoker's summoned (wind) spirits a power bonus? Although last I heard we weren't supposed to mess with buffing summons. And the sword... it's only suitable to Barbarians yet they can't use longswords, or shields? I'm fine with the weapon's power, it just seems unreasonable to restrict its use in such a way (that's also unconventional to the weapon-type system we have in place).

    OOC: the Skirmisher mob should be blind. Repeat.
  9. JimBee
    Hybros repeats. If the Ranger is defeated, he will target the Defender mob from the front row with darkness.
  10. JimBee
    Docken attacks the Skirmishers with his Darksteel Crossbow (back row). If successful, he focuses his attack on the Rangers. If not, he repeats.
  11. JimBee
    OOC: I think the Phalanx and all of the negative effects on the Skirmisher should be expired now. "Docken, it may be best to target the Skirmishers. Those Defenders look more dangerous, even if there is the risk of the Skirmisher protecting the rest. You could try to blind them, then help us with the Archers again." Hybros nodded to Ellaria. "Eheh, strategy is somewhat of a specialty..." He attacks the Rangers from the front row with darkness, twice. Same Battle Order (suggested).
  12. JimBee
    OOC: Phalanx should be down to its last round. Hybros rubbed his head. He stepped back for a moment to think about how to solve this puzzle of a battle. "Alright, we have one more round before the effects of that bomb fade, and I think those Skirmishers will return to their attack formation soon. We must take them out while we can, while leaving the Alchemists for Ellaria to deal with. Docken, keep trying to keep these Rangers occupied, I will try to whittle them down. We must accept to leave the Skirmishers unattended for now. Thormanil, on the Rangers with me, eheh... " Hybros attacked the Ranger Mob from the front row with darkness, twice. Suggested Battle Order: >Docken - Horseshoe on Rangers > Docken - Horseshow/Crossbow on Rangers Hybros vs. Archers Hybros vs. Archers Thormanil vs. Archers >Arx vs. Small Ellaria vs. Alchemists Free Hits: Defender Mob vs. Docken Skirmishers vs. Hybros Scholar vs. Thormanil
  13. JimBee
    "Thormanil, now that the Alchemists are fewer, I think Ellaria can prevent them from doing much more harm. Perhaps it would be better if we did not risk them using more of those potions and you helped me with these helpless Skirmishers, eheh..."
  14. JimBee
    Hybros attacks the Skirmisher Mob twice from the front row with darkness.
  15. JimBee
    OOC: If Docken has full health when his aura fades, will the bleeding effect linger? Hybros attacks the Alchemist mob from the front row with darkness, twice.
  16. JimBee
    Those are good points. If definitely say that Miirym isn't allowed to go look in the window because that's an actual job trait. And I guess it would be weird if heroes started bringing mammoth-sized dragons on quests with them if the dragon was just going to stand there
  17. JimBee
    Aye, this battle in 118 right now is pretty tough. I think we can still win pretty easily though if we knock off the Skirmishers and make sure the Alchemists stop brewing. I'm fine with ex-Dragoons using their dragons for RP purposes only.
  18. JimBee
    Hybros cursed himself for not remembering. Perhaps using one earlier could have saved the party some headaches... He tossed a Pumpkin Bomb from the back row then used a Health Core on Thormanil instead. "Save yourself the Remedy and cause some damage to those Alchemists! You too, Docken."
  19. JimBee
    Hybros uses a Health Core on Docken and attacks the Skirmishers again. "The most important thing is to keep those Archers occupied while we defeat the Skirmishers. Docken, if you can blind the Skirmishers, keep blinding the Archers. Ellaria, Thormanil, see if you can weaken that mob of Alchemists. Arx, stay on the small ones."
  20. JimBee
    Hybros attacks the Skirmshers after Docken's attacks.
  21. JimBee
    "Eheh, yes, you were right in that respect, but I wanted to ensure Docken would be healed." Hybros looked over to the Warden. It was unusual to see the heavily armored bowman so injured. But somehow, he thought they'd pull through.
  22. JimBee
    Hybros switches the order of his actions, attacking the Golem Skirmishers first and then uses the Health Core on Docken (if he was still standing, otherwise repeats his attack). "Ellaria, allow me to heal Docken last. If he is hit with those arrows, he will be out no matter what. Perhaps you would be lucky to revive him if that was the case, heheh." OOC: Docken's Mail of the Renegade Commander only halves damage from free hits, so if he rolls damage he'll be KO'd no matter what. At least there's a chance to revive him with Roots of Life if that's the case, so Hybros should go last to bring Docken back to full health if he successfully blinds the Rangers.
  23. JimBee
    I forgot to mention this much earlier, but it's cool how two of our resident elves, Nerwen and Thalion, have trained to classes of music and art, much like the elven gods in this game. What a happy coincidence.
  24. JimBee
    OOC: I don't think you calculated Thormanil's/Arx's Shield damage correctly; the WP is multiplied by 3 and ice damage (44x2) is done by Arx to the Smalls, Defenders, and Skirmishers regardless of row. Hybros curses at the Skirmishers. They were by far the most irritating enemy he had ever faced. Could they not just stop hiding behind their shields and accepted defeat? "Hm." He smirked. "Docken, now is the time to blind those Archers. Here, take this." Hybros uses a Health Core on Docken if he is not KO'd, then attacks the Skirmishers from the front row with darkness. Suggested Battle Order: Docken Thormanil Arx Hybros Ellaria
  25. JimBee
    "Docken, see if you can blind that group of Alchemists. It looks like they outnumber us, so let me go first to take their hits. Leave the Rangers for now; Docken will have to take hits from them behind his shield. Leave the Scholar as well, he poses little threat without his allies so we will save him for last. It would be best if Ellaria took the Defenders, and Thormanil helped me with the Skirmishers. Arx can handle the smaller ones." Hybros attacks the Golem Skirmishers from the front row with darkness, twice. Suggested Battle Order: Hybros Docken Thormanil Arx Ellaria
