Sorry, I was not aware I was up.

I'll just have Spectre taunt the bad guys. Result: 16

[RocketLord]

Sense motive x4: 16 10 23 20

 

You got one of them taunted. 

 

@Wyverntamer: All four shoot at the walls, give me 4 DC22 TOU saves for the wall. The Wall uses its rank as its Toughness bonus.

 

16 - 4x Thugs - Unharmed, 1x Shaken

8 - Knight of Earth - 4HP - Bruise (x1)

- Wall TOU+10 - Unharmed

7 - Spectre - 1HP - Unharmed

28, 11, 25, 19. That's... Okay, I don't know how toughness works for objects.

[RocketLord]

That's why I did that attack, to help you learn it, since a good use of Create Object is walls, just like you did!

 

You'll want to look at the Damaging Objects section at page 166 in the core book. Basically, objects only take lethal damage, not the non-lethal that's normally used. Like with characters, they can take Injuries, which gives -1 to further saves, become Disabled, which means equipment no longer functions and walls have holes or, when Dying, its completely destroyed.

 

So, your 28 and 25 passes the save. The 11 fails by 11, which, as per house rules, means it is Disabled, and there's now holes in it! The 19 is an injury, so -1 to further rolls, but further attacks might get through the holes! You can use Create Object to create new walls, of course! Or repair the old ones!

 

16 - 4x Thugs - Unharmed, 1x Shaken

8 - Knight of Earth - 4HP - Bruise (x1)

- Wall TOU+10 - Disabled, Injury (x1)

7 - Spectre - 1HP - Unharmed

[Darksider42]

Autofire blast on all four thugs (I could do that, right?): 24, 7, 16, 14

TOU DC 25

[RocketLord]

Yep. There's a bit between them, so you'll be going through 3 5-foot squares to hit them all, meaning a -3 penalty to each shot. I'll do them in order of Thug 1 to 4.

 

The first attack hits, the rest miss. Good tactic, unlucky rolls.

 

TOU from Thug 1: 12

 

Fail by 13, so he's Staggered and Dazed, which means any further damage will KO him.

 

@Wyverntamer give me an IC.

Well, Max isn't gonna give Armstrong the Satisfaction of hurting her, so Reroll! 23. Pass

 

She gonna give the daze hologram a hit. 30

[RocketLord]

That's a hit, TOU: 11

He's out.

 

Give me an IC.

Well, they all suck.

 

@Wyverntamer, you're up.

[Wyverntamer]

Ivy is just going to repeat the trick that is successful, no point in fixing what isn't broken, is there?

 

26 8 (nat1) 12 Well, good, not so good and a miss

[RocketLord]

26 hits, rest miss. TOU vs. DC25: 25

 

Just makes it. Give me an IC.

Edited April 2, 2020 by RocketLord

[Darksider42]

Spectre is gonna take a different tactic to try and make two of these mooks with Redirect.

She got a 24. Might also try phasing while doing that because that would be cool. 

[RocketLord]

Sense motive: 9

Nope, redirected to Thug 2: 14

 

And missing his friend!

Give me an IC.

[RocketLord]

Alright, Thug 2 aids Thug 3: 8, and fails at that.

Then, Thug 4 tries tries to aid Thug 3, then: 27. Well. That succeeds.

 

Thug 3 attacks Spectre with +2 from aid: 27

That's a hit, give me a DC22 TOU save.

 

And @Wyverntamer is up.

Edited April 8, 2020 by RocketLord

[Darksider42]

Spectre is currently Insubstantial. The attack just goes through her and requires no TOU save.

[Wyverntamer]

Ivy is using a spear shaped from earth, let's see if the rolls are better this time.

 

Melee attack thug 3: 23

 

That's good, right? If it hits it is a TOU 25 save.

Edited April 8, 2020 by Wyverntamer

[RocketLord]

[Wyverntamer]

Blast on Thug 2: 30 (nat20) That hits, right?

[RocketLord]

Yes, that hits. 

 

Since its a natural 20, its a critical hit, which, using our house rules, gives you a few options:

 

Quote

Critical Hits: A critical hit (defined as a roll of a natural 20 on an attack, which would have hit the target's Defense even were it not a natural 20) can have one of the following 3 effects, chosen by the player when the critical hit is rolled:

• Increased Effect: The critical hit increases the difficulty to resist the attack's effect by +5.
• Added Effect: The critical hit adds another effect onto the attack, but its effective rank is 0, so the saving throw DC is just the base value (15 for Damage, 10 for other attack powers). The added effect can be anything the player can reasonably describe and justify as adjunct to the original effect: Nauseate or Stun (useful for all sorts of "gut checks," blows to the head or vitals, etc.), Dazzle (blood in the eyes, boxing the ears, etc.), or Drain (Drain Dex via striking the hamstrings or a "nerve cluster", Drain Con for a particularly savage wound), to name a few. The GM decides if the effect suits the circumstances of the attack. The target makes saves against the attack's initial and added effects separately.
• Alternate Effect: The critical hit results in an alternate effect for the attack, like a use of Extra Effort for a power stunt, except the character suffers no Fatigue as a result. This option can represent a "lucky" attack that does something completely different, like blinding a target, or imposing some other condition.

 

The most common by far is the Increased Effect, but which one do you wanna go for?

[Wyverntamer]

I think that just the Increased Effect is good for this one, it wasn't like Ivy was aiming at the head or anything like that. (Also, there is the added bonus of Autofire to consider)
