Give the Unseen Servant a try then. Once you set up all your power's rolls as macros, you can just click a button next to a power and it rolls it for you, That is what I did for Shandien. I have all of his powers set up as macros. So when his turn comes around all I need to do is click the die icon next to the one I want and it generates the roll and the BB Code line to copy over (similar to IC but it has many differences to get used to first).

I have Campaign IDs set up for both games I run. This game is 229 (Shadow my DoD game is 228 there too). This allows for all the rolls for a particular game to be grouped by that game.

I just might check that out.

My computer is fixed!

Melblen, don't mind that roll from Dunor, was just testing it to see how it worked. It might do nicely going forward.

Besides, he's not well enough to attack anything right now, anyway. Gotta stay safe. A living Dunor is a Dunor that can fight another day.

Shadowhunter · « **Reply #466 on:** April 30, 2015, 06:35:14 AM »

I'm going to be afk for the next couple of days. If the combat round progresses somewhat fast, I all give you permission to figure out what I need to do during the turn and roll for me, if I'm not around to do so myself. Also, reminder to the group: Remember that we have Action points and that we ought to use them. I'm out of encounter powers and dailies, but I got AP to spare.

Melblen_Cairn · « **Reply #467 on:** April 30, 2015, 07:38:41 AM »

No problem. When you turn comes up again here I can post for you. Since we have the Boneshard in position we would want to unload on it.

Having extra APs are good but remember you can only spend one per encounter, so if any of you have used one this fight you cannot use another. In contrast, some monsters with multiple APs can use them more than once per fight.

VennDygrem · « **Reply #468 on:** April 30, 2015, 09:22:50 AM »

Can I rephrase my readied action? Dunor will intercept any attack meant for the boy, placing himself in harm's way (making him the target of such an attack) in order to defend him. Thus, Dunor would be ready to parry the attack, thanks to Duelist's Prowess.

Also, my initiative wouldn't change unless my readied action were triggered.

Melblen_Cairn · « **Reply #469 on:** April 30, 2015, 10:21:15 AM »

NP. Based on what I thought you had originally meant, I thought you were taking the boy to safety once the ritual ended, hence the trigger and the relocation in the init order. I will correct this evening then.

VennDygrem · « **Reply #470 on:** April 30, 2015, 06:20:10 PM »

I think it's probably too dangerous to get him out of here with all the skeletons around and in the way. if the boneshard explodes again though, maybe better to get him out now... I couldn't grab him while moving, right? So I'd have to just use my full movement to get to him. Picking him up is likely a standard action, possibly an athletics check if he's heavy enough. Then I couldn't move him until next turn anyway. Might still be the best option...

Melblen_Cairn · « **Reply #471 on:** May 01, 2015, 07:43:44 AM »

Tell you what make an athletics check to scoop him as you rush by and we will call it part of the move. This fight has been a pretty big challenge as it is so will make it easier to get the boy through the surrounding skeletons.

VennDygrem · « **Reply #472 on:** May 01, 2015, 10:25:10 PM »

Yay, I still get to be heroic even as I'm bleeding all over the nice stone floor.

Melblen_Cairn · « **Reply #473 on:** May 02, 2015, 12:46:59 AM »

Yep

. Now everyone needs to kill that skeleton so the party can finally rest up.

Melblen_Cairn · « **Reply #474 on:** May 02, 2015, 08:19:58 AM »

bhu, you would not be able to curse the skeleton currently at G11 because the skeleton next to you is closer. Warlock Curse can only be used on the closest enemy. If you shifted to say F13 or G13, then you would be able to do two things differently if you wanted; you would be close enough to curse that skeleton at G11 (which would now be an equal distance from you than the other skeleton), and you could then use one of you powers instead of a melee attack giving you a much better chance to hit.

Also if you haven't used an AP this encounter you might also consider it now, either dropping an attack (or both) toward the Bleached Skeleton (the boneshard skeleton) to help kill it off or kill both skeletons you just cursed and get the +4 to your next d20 roll. Or even use one of the pact boons to trigger your rod and curse the skeleton at G7 and keep the +2 from the other. When G7 dies you will get the extra +2 anyhow.

Just a couple suggestions, please do not take it as though I am trying to make you do what I wrote above.

bhu · « **Reply #475 on:** May 02, 2015, 05:47:02 PM »

Im new to 4e, feel free to make suggestions

Can I use an action point to take a 5 foot step to avoid AoO, then do my regular turn?

Melblen_Cairn · « **Reply #476 on:** May 02, 2015, 06:46:21 PM »

You get three actions per round; a Standard, a Move, and a Minor action. You can use your move action to Shift (which is like taking a 5 foot step). Then use the minor action to use Warlock's Curse on the skeleton at G11. Then you can use a standard action unhindered to blasts enemies and spend an action point to take another standard action and use another power.

bhu · « **Reply #477 on:** May 02, 2015, 07:56:21 PM »

lemme get mah revised turn up then, you still only move 5 ft on a shift yes?

VennDygrem · « **Reply #478 on:** May 02, 2015, 08:01:43 PM »

Unless something specifically lets you shift more. But yeah, a shift is a 5-foot step basically.

Shadowhunter · « **Reply #479 on:** May 04, 2015, 12:16:10 PM »

Ok, so the roller has vindicated itself. For now.
