My money's on the remaining seven elemental generals, some sort of ridiculously strong second-in-command, and the leader. I have a sneaking suspicion the leader and the second are the two aoi Jun ran into for some reason. Guess we'll see.

If it was a regular battle, this'd be way too easy, we have all positive effects. "This changes things," remarked Atramor, glancing at the enemy's positioning. "Alright...I think it'd be best if we focused our strength on whoever's most susceptible to it, and if we try and take out enemies in one party at a time, it'll do us a lot of good. Thalion, use the Sleeper to put the Divine Physician and the God of Death to sleep, if ya' can, it'll help a lot with the free hits. Tesni can take down Double Spears easily - more easily than I thought, she does sixteen times as much damage to him - then, when he's down, Tesni, ya' should take a swing at the Faceless, put Faelan to the best use it can. Nagure and Garnetic can focus on the Rainbow Tiger and Leopard respectively, they'll do octuple damage. Tarn can put down the Sick Tiger. Benji, ya' should still aim for Hundred Victories, he's too high a level to leave for a free hit. Make sure he's down, then move on to the Tiger Slayer. Lee, I think ya' should take down the Second, then the Third Brother with a darkness.....fist, I guess. Now, let's see....I think Rubio should attack the Knife-Wielding Demon, Opalix on the Living King, Topazor on the Pilgrim, Emeray on Lonely Star, Sapphiraz on Yakshini, Garnetic on the Rainbow Leopard, and Aquamarq on the Fiery-Eyed Lion. And it's important that the automatons stay in the back row," rattled off the witch. Again. "Tarn, I'd like to go first and last. I'll equip the Pheles Rod with my second turn, so I'll survive long enough to be takin' all the free hits. Thalion should probably go second and third to last, to make sure neither of his targets are woken up. I think this leaves the Chaos King, Strategist, Conqueror, possibly the Faceless and Tiger Slayer, Judge, Sacred Water, The Tigress, and the Flagbearer for free hits. I can take that. Probably." Atramor shook his head free of the mess of calculations running around in it, sword in one hand, staff in the other. He took a stab with Conspirator at the Touching the Sky from the back row, then turned, bringing the Pheles Rod across the Twin-Tailed Scorpion, also from the back row.

73 were defeated in Quest 50, not 62. 108 - 73 = 35, +1 for the Jade Flagbearer who came back, I think.

Yeah, so....fixed. Sorry everyone.

I think you mean 10.

"Now that I think about it, Sapphiraz would actually be better off with Nagure and Tesni," thought Atramor aloud. "Forgot about the Fiery-Eyed Lion. If Sapphiraz targets the Third Brother, then the order for the third party should be Sapphiraz, Aquamarq, Nagure, Tesni, Nagure, Tesni, Garnetic. Nagure, if ya' don't target the Rainbow Tiger, you're gonna have to take his and Tigress' free hit, which'd be 52 damage. If ya' think ya' can handle it, aye, hitting Rainbow Leopard twice is a good idea."

The only reason I think it doesn't is because if it did have eight tentacles it'd vastly outclass the Obsidian Dragon, but it does make sense logically.

I was almost sure it didn't, but I'll pose the question to Sandy.

Round Four of Round Two >Pretzel disenchants enemy party - Success (Feldorin no longer lucky or encouraged, -5 ether) >Dreyrugr uses Smelling Salts on Sylph >Pretzel uses Grand Tonic >Sylph vs. Reg (Shrapnel Bow) - Damage (25/2 - 5 = 8 damage) >Sylph vs. Gontzo (Shrapnel Bow) - Damage (28 - 5 = 23 damage) >Nessa uses Smelling Salts >Nessa vs. Difur (Silver Crossbow) - Shield: Tripleshot (23 x 2 - 8 = 40 damage to Difur, 48 to Big Red, 48 to Little Red) Feldorin uses free hit on Pretzel - (23/2 - 16 = 0 damage) Big Red heals Little Red - (40 health restored, -1 ether) Little Red uses free hit on Dreyrugr - (16/2 - 9 = 0 damage) Feldorin poisoned - (1 damage) Sylph and Nessa both inhale Smelling Salts. Amidst a hail of projectiles, Difur and the Reds end up with bolts sticking out of their sides, courtesy of an enraged Nessa, but Sylph is thrown to the ground by Reg, to be shot with a bolt that lands quivering on the outside of his helmet, nearly piercing the metal. Big Red shakes himself awake as a result of the pain, and hastily patches up his daughter as she tries to cut through Dreyrugr's shield to no avail. Feldorin takes a wild swing at Pretzel to the same effect. Enemies Gontzo Level 28 Vermin *Fights in back row.

Attacker's defense/SP.

Yup. He's asking for someone to give him a treat and come rub his belly. ....I think he means his belly, anyway. That is a little odd. It'd take a really dumb scum to even vaguely try to lower suspicion on someone, but it's worth pointing out, I suppose.

Well, you add WP bonus to WP first just in case it's a Critical. I add raw power bonus to level. SP is the last thing calculated, I think, so before.

The Platinum Kraken?

:wall: There goes the boss battle. Again.

It's only Aquatic. ...I used the older version, didn't I?

I'm assuming this three-pronged mechanic doesn't affect the effects from the automatons, right? And these effects are all permanent, so Knife-Wielding Demon can't steal them, yes? Atramor glanced from one Star to the next. So these were the infamous bandits they'd crossed half the world to defeat. They were tough, he'd give them that. "Easy enough to figure out who goes where, they're grouped by their type, mostly. Tarn, Benji, you'll want to go to the left, and take Emeray, Rubio, and Topazor with you. Tesni, Nagure, definitely Garnetic, and Aquamarq should go the right. Earth element'll trash the Leopard and the Rainbow Tiger, and that Lion too. Thalion, Lee, Opalix, Sapphiraz, come with me straight on." "Benji should go for Hundred Victories and Touching the Sky, he can kill Hundred in one hit and will deal full damage to Sky. Tarn, you're best takin' the Divine Physician and the Lonely Star can't risk the Judge's and the Conqueror's specials. Rubio and Topazor can take on the Faceless, and Emeray can deal with the Second Brother. You'll take free hits from the Conqueror, the Judge, and Sacred Water. Benji should probably go first and then third, he'll take only 20 damage, and Tarn, ya' should go second to make sure ya' take the Judge's free hit, he'll only deal 20 too, and that's if you're in the front row." "Tesni, ya' can probably cut open Two Spears real easy with that Sawblade, especially if ya' hit him twice this round. Nagure, go for the Rainbow Leopard and Tiger with that hammer of yours, it'll smash 'em right into the ground. Garnetic and Aquamarq should take on Sick Tiger, and they should definitely go first, from the back row, so the Third Brother and Flagbearer won't deal a scratch on 'em. If Tesni goes third and Nagure fourth, you'll each only take a couple scratches from Tiger Slayer and Tigress." "That leaves us, Thalion, Lee. Thalion, ya' might wanna toss a spell at Pilgrim and Yakshini, you're the only one outta us that can deal ranged hits. I'm gonna go hit God of Death and Living King. Lee, go smack around that Demon King, and make sure to use that Diamond. Opaliz, Sapphiraz, get on the Twin-Tailed Scorpion. All of ya' in my group, don't be afraid to fight from the front row, I'll take all the hits anyway. Tarn, order don't matter much here, but it'll be easier if I'm at the top." "Any other thoughts, mates?" After pointing out targets, Atramor then spun the Pheles Rod once, taking a swing at God of Death from the front row, then Living King from the back row. Agreed, mostly, I'm only taking on God of Death because on the small chance it is rolled, I'll absorb the effect then special mirror it. We need to leave the particularly dangerous specials and the weakest enemies for later.

Tosses Danyelle a dog biscuit. Who wants to come pet my new doggy?!

Still love that fight.

The party sets out. They head straight to the east, trudging past rapids, destroyed bridges, and more bodies than they can count. They walk along the spindly river right to the point where it opens up into Loch Mess - but there's only one creature of legend that will be dying here today. The party pauses on a long, shallow slope of wet sand leading right into the lake. A distance gurgling and a shadow in the water signals the approach of something. Something big. Steeling themselves, the heroes are left almost in awe as a massive, almost glimmering green shape pulls its head of the water using eight thick, writhing tentacles, dangerously close to the shore. Without warning - it moves to attack. PREPARE FOR BATTLE! Enemies Jade Kraken "<HEROES. I KNEW YOU WERE COMING. YES. I MAY LIVE IN THE DEPTHS, BUT MY EYES ARE NOT BLIND.

I think ignoring row makes more sense logically than SP, but SP piercing will probably be more useful. Do you mean the Cavalier would permanently deal dual hits? I think that's plenty more fair. I still think a Critical Hit to every enemy is a bit too much, especially when considering the buffing. I think they should at least be dropped to regular Hits. And I think reducing a number from the next roll makes more sense. Honestly you just inspired the entire concept of another Expert class for me with this.

The speeches are easy to just ignore, though, and in some cases they fit the situation.
