Hey phae, is Legion closing?  This dude has reach...
Legion's breath weapon is only 10' long. So he should be able to take a 5' step to reach him, right? If not, yes.

He rolled away, but we'll go with yes.

You know... I'd rather Legion take that AoO than one of my allies, especially Isaac. So yeah, he'd close either way.

The enemy gets multiple AoOs per round. At least 2, maybe more. You're not stopping any attacks by opening yourself up.

Maybe he doesn't as a zombie... or whatever he is now.  :scared I don't really have much of an option, anyway. I had my morning star and shield equipped, not longspear.

We also can't read the monster's character sheet. If jumping in and being the target instead of his about-to-die friends is something that Legion would do, then I fully empower you to do so. :)

Hey, Phaedrus, just to make sure you never ever finalize Legion's character sheet, have you seen the new Sovreign Archetype options you can apply to your ideals?

Yeah, haven't had a chance to really look at them in depth, though.

For later on at higher levels (assuming you take Wyrm Warrior to 5th for the second ideal power), you might want an ideal with Flame of the Forge for one ideal and combine it with binding Astaroth for the floating item creation feat and be a mini-Artificer. But that can't come before 10th level anyways, so it's a ways off.

Would I still be under the effect of the ritual that boosts ranged attacks?

Sorry, my rituals only last 3 rounds right now so it would have worn off just after the first part of the encounter. There was no time to recharge while healing Isaac.

Phae, isn't a large longspear 2d6 damage, not 1d10?

Huh. I didn't actually look it up. I thought I'd memorized those progressions. :P

I think in the future I'll have him wielding the longspear and choose Fist of Stone for his 1st level spell known. That will give him great damage (3d6+9) for our level. Of course, he'll be a bit more vulnerable without the shield, and especially by choosing Fang instead of Shadow as his expressed ideal.

Hmm... 1d8+9 with Mirror Image vs 3d6+9... Is Mirror Image 6xday worth 6 more points of damage on average?

That depends on whether you generate enough attention and how friendly said attention is to your hit points.
Hmm.

Well, that was interesting.

Once we're sure we're not getting interrupted again (double check the horse and the knight, too, and plop some more weapons into the ogre for good measure), I can set up my healing shop again. Isaac should be at 12 damage + 3 nonlethal, and Legion should be down 11 hp (13 damage - 2 temp hp), right? I can get everybody topped up in 22 rounds (isaac will have 9 nonlethal, Legion will have 5 nonlethal when we're done). Does anyone else need any healing?

Yep. Heal up. I am getting us our WBL, even if I have to look up the Ogre's keister to get it. :)
Hmm.

Nice roll!

The ogre had a very dirty loincloth and a Large greatclub.  The knight, on the other hand, was wearing breastplate and had a masterwork greatsword, a light warhorse w/ military saddle and saddlebags.  In the saddlebags he had 114gp in cash, three full potion vials, 50 feet of nice silk rope, a small steel mirror, one meal's worth of rations, a whetstone, and a folded net.

So he soiled himself? That's just wonderful.  :eh I can use the breastplate, if no one else wants/can use it.

I don't particularly care for med armor, so go for it. I could always swap out my greatsword; anyone using 2H weapons aside from me?

Technically, a Medium Longsword is a 2H weapon for Nora'Luuu. To use a greatsword, he'd need to use both hands and his mouth as well. And he wouldn't swing it so much as throw it and follow behind.

Which would be hilarious. Not to mention Nora'luuu could use the medium breastplate as an armored tent :) So go for it!

Nora'Luuu may show interest in the mirror, because it's shiny and he's primitive. :)
