Knew IC would do that. Hit like 3 crits in one round and then in round 2 none of the enemies hit at all.  :lmao

Err, I know that hit killed the rat, but it kind of killed the wrong rat... >_>

Basically, I was leaving the rat next to the Swordmage alive knowing he'd take care of it, and my risk of moving was meant to put me in position to defend against both rats. If I was just going to kill the rat in F3,  I wouldn't have bothered moving and provoking an OA.

It's a little late now, but in the future I would like to stick to my posted actions unless they're incredibly stupid.

Corrected. Put in the Dire Rats turn. Probably should have left him dead.

Well, as I said, it was fine to leave it as is. All I wanted to do was point out that my actions had been read wrong. So now because I've done that, I've just been dug into a deeper ditch. -_-

At least now if it's being changed, perhaps my riposte strike will have gone off since the rat attacked me? That might at least leave at least one of them dead.

For some reason, I thought the rat swarm would deal a lot less damage than that. Silly swordmage.

Only 4 damage at the start of your turn from the swarm aura (which takes its own toll over several rounds), but the AoO for moving from an adjacent square did almost max.

Hmm, just realized I haven't been keeping track of when White Lotus Riposte is applicable.

Anyone here a diplo?  All I got skillwise is "scare her until she talks or dies of heart failure."

Will you be looking to take an extended rest here or just getting the woman outside someplace safe to delve back in? If the latter what path do you think you will be taking once back inside? I want to make sure I don't delay things incase I don't have a particular map finished yet.

There could be. The further you travel away from it the better it would be for resting uninterrupted. The hobgoblins will notice the attack eventually and after searching the area indoors they may begin looking outside.

Someone could roll a nature or perception check to find a good camp site a small distance away. It would not be immune from someone seeing it from afar but could be concealed well enough. The question we posed before when we found some prisoners is what to do with them after their release? Do you take them with or stash them outside and risk them being found?

DOes she look like she's in a position to survive and make it back to safety if we buy it in the lair?

The wilds are a dangerous place. It is very likely she would come to a bad end somewhere along the way.

Not good odds for her survival if we buy it then.
On the other hand, if she's with us when we buy it, then she's certainly re-captured/dead as well.
And if she's with us, she could have a flashback-inspired freakout or eat some sort of AoE/stray shot and die.
I'm firmly in favor of getting her out and finding some same place to stash her with some food and water and hope for the best.
