The plan is to at least get the sign-ups for that Quest out before the end of the year. There's still one more Quest between now and then. I still plan to host at least three Quests that offer the class, though.

It specifically says only suitable to archmages though, which puts it in a weird place.

"I can revive him if needed. It won't take more than a moment. I also assume you don't want to leave the automaton lying there either."

Nice. Can't go wrong with some AKs. I'm a big fan of these remastered versions of older BrickArms.

Avina continues whipping up mixtures. Hybros notices the battle AIUPIIUP swinging around to face him, and he deftly rolls sideways, right into U'Reeka. The U'Kin is startled, raising his wrench, but almost out of instinct, Hybros swings with his trusty scythe. There's a pause as the doctor stumbles backwards, reaching for his throat, a slim, but fatally deep wound across it. He falls backward against the wall and slides down dramatically. "DOC! NO!!" The AIUPIIUP, without an operator, starts spinning out of control. Em, pushing Selerane back with his shield, realizes the threat to his party, and abandons the struggle, knocking the machine over even as it explodes, sending him flying against the wall, unconscious, but having saved his party from disaster. The party has a respite next round, and the enemies are down by two.

Hybros is really the only AoE damage hero on the Quest. And I'm referring to big hordes of enemies. If I threw a horde of enemies at you guys that were immune to instant kill it would be considerably more difficult, where if they weren't it's just a matter of how many Grim Reapers Hybros rolls. My point was that it was easier to have a smaller number of stronger enemies.

Yeah, strategizing the actions of thirteen heroes and twenty one turns against twenty six enemies on three fronts of battle made things so much easier. Sorry. Throwing hordes of enemies at you guys is seriously pointless thanks to Hybros, so I figured the best way to create a challenge was a small group of super buffed up enemies.

I can't even count how many we had going in Quest 75. Well, they weren't unavoidable, but there were twenty six enemies to deal with. I let Atramor get knocked out in the first round simply because it'd be easier to have him get revived than to ensure every single person got healed consistently. And I can count actually, it was 318 damage.

True, I meant in the way that's not a decision to feel really good about. Unless you're Pretzel. 140 damage considering the back row. You have three tanks, a Minstrel, and an Alchemist with a load of potions. It's not impossible, it's just the boss battle.

I like how the situation in Quest 98 isn't "which is the right answer" or "which is the more morally correct answer", it's "which answer is slightly less unpleasant to have to deal with". And now you're killing this kid's hero right in front of him. Who's gonna be the Darth Vader in this situation? I wouldn't think so. It's not an effect, I'm just putting it there so I don't forget about it. I'm probably going to anyway though.

Selenrae steps forward, eyes washing black once again. Black ink crawls down from the ceiling and form into shades even as the ceiling crumbled, the individual blocks floating in a circular path beneath the concentrated sphere of pure moonlight created by the beam that's been following the heroes. The shadows cast by the blocks moving in front it shift and warp on the ground below them. "Then you shall feel the sorrow of the Moon Elves in our wrath." U'Reeka clenches his fists. "No. I cannot let you do this. They do not have any less reason to live than you do." He pulls a device from his pouch, and sets it down. It unfolds to a much larger size, revealing yet another AIUPIIUP - but this one was not possessed by the shades. The lens seemed to resemble the barrel of a cannon more. "I thought Heroica could be trusted to save lives where they could, not kill anything that may become a threat I thought." Wally jumps forward, between U'Reeka and the heroes. "Wait! You can't kill the Doc! It's - it's not - this isn't what you guys do!" Erveka reached out, pulling him backward and restraining him even as he struggled. "This isn't our fight Wally, none of it is!" "Do not interfere Wally. I could not let you come to harm. I could not. I am sorry for what has happened to Zylstra. You have been an excellent student you have. I hope...you have more success than I have. Heroes...I...I am sorry for creating the shades, but I cannot condone this....I am sorry." "Sorry kid. It's for the best." Avina turned to the abomination. "Stay in the tunnel, make sure none of these things escape." The man nodded and lumbered off into the cavern. She and the Scar took their place by the heroes and joined the party as the shades swarmed forward. PREPARE FOR BATTLE!!!

"We attempted to destroy it. It was a quite unnatural melding of advanced technology and magic. The oaths of those present demanded they try and destroy it at once. It could've been extremely dangerous in the wrong hands. As evidenced here." "I do care you fool! If I had my way I would have stopped the elves if I had my way! Does this misunderstanding mean they deserve to die?!" "We could not take all of them. The elf implies there are more shades left and the Crimson Crown associates never seem to be alone.

I really like the final battle loot in Quest 93. Is there any chance of other awesome class-specific loot coming to the Marketplace or something?

"Indeed...though given how expansive this organization is, perhaps they could have tried harder. I believed we had been fighting a gang of thugs, not what this woman claims them to be." "Very well, monk. Words clearly will not sway you from your preconceptions." "Look at your friend the monk. There is some reason in him or he would not agree we need to help one another. But he abandons reason and logic daily in order to pay homage to his deity. There are millions others on this world who play pawns to their gods to placate themselves into thinking their lives are fulfilled by their acts. What do the gods do? They use them. They manipulate them. Read any myth from any pantheon and you'll find in almost every one mortals suffering because a god wishes to illustrate a moral or establish dominance. Who are we to destroy the unnatural? Who are the gods to toy with our lives in this way? Magic is just the same. Ether is the manifestation of the god Ethereth. You'll find scholars that argue divine and conventional magic are different, but in reality they all draw from the gods themselves. Mortals have more potential than you could imagine. If only I could explain it to you." The marked shift in tone could not be more significant. The woman's voice had gone from annoyed and exasperated to one that was utterly engrossed in her cause. "You speak as though some otherworldly power governs what place we have in this world, what we can say, what we can do. But mortals are underestimated. We have a drive the gods cannot hope to match. Anance could not see it." "Avina." The Scar's voice was suddenly quite stern. The woman - Avina, apparently - looked over at him, paused, then looked back at Hybros. "We are not faceless soldiers. These masks signify we are but adherents of the Order when we wear them. But every man and woman you've killed joined us out of their free will, because they saw the truth in our ways. And every single one followed those ways to the end. We would not jeopardize our mission here by betraying you." "But...they were killed, all of them. Without reason, without warning. We can find the murderers. I am sure of it. They gave us form. We must avenge them. Repay our debt."

It is not the woman who replies to Pretzel, but the man in the cloak and expensive top hat, regal rapier held idly in preparation. His voice is somewhat high pitched and musical despite his strange choice in words. "Had the guileful Cardinal truly endeavored to extinguish thou's life ye wouldst not be standing here before me. But I doth not pretend to fathom her machinations. We of the Order kill only with purpose and reason. Worry not. Mine methods are less devious, ye will soon find. The artistry of one's mannerisms is as significant as his cause. And my art is in war. In skill. In combat. I am the Scar, and I swear thusly; ye need not fear the blades of neither I nor my vassals."
