Re: Championship #15: Battle for the Belt

13:05, Today: Brakt rolled 33 using 1d20+17 ((16))

All right. Who can I find?

I'm currently 5" Underground so I'd take 25+Distance to Latro, or is it 25+stealth+Distance?

Re: Championship #15: Battle for the Belt

Brakt cocked his ears for a moment, and nodded as the Elementals seemed to move away.  Gathering his composure, he considered the rock in front of him where the Wizard was hiding.  Taking a deep breath, he focused on his Cloak, growing larger, his head a comical sight poking out of the ground. His eyes now clear, he takes a few steps away from the Wizard, looking towards the rest of the arena, making sure not to wander too far away.

Re: Championship #15: Battle for the Belt

Hey josep, i just realized that if any of those Air elementals passed within 10 feet of Latro, they need to make a DC 24 Will save for each of his auras.

First for despair and then for cowardice.

If they fail despair, they take a -2 penalty on their saves until the start of your next turn.
If they fail cowardice they either loose immunity to fear effects or take a -4 penalty to fear effects if not immune until the start of your next turn.

and seeing as the elementals have been flying at +2 this whole time and Latro's aura extends to +2, i'd imagine that they all have to make those saves.

I don't know where Latro is, but based on Josep's last post, the Elemental's are each at +3, or 15' in the air.

Re: Championship #15: Battle for the Belt

@Latro: good thing they’re all at +3 then.

If Boa rules that any of them had to come to +2 as part of their movement to do their flyby attack, I will roll their saves, but I don’t think so as their reach is 15ft.

I suppose that's a fair point. :P
The only other question is if a natural attacks count as entering my space for the purposes of saving against my auras, seeing as the creature itself is whats attacking me and not a manufactured weapon.

I don’t think that’s how auras work, but you’re welcome to make a case for it.

Re: Championship #15: Battle for the Belt

In reply to Josep Gavinho (msg # 157):

Well, there have been some interesting rulings in the past. I see no reason to add this one to the list of interesting rulings.
So i personally would like to see what the ref says.

Really the only thing i have to go off of is the following from the rules site:

quote:
Auras
Auras are treated as having a duration of 1 round and affect a creature each round they are in the aura or move through it (willingly or not). They allow saving throws to negate every round (unless it deals damage, then its a saving throw for half). Anti-paladin auras, for example, affect a creature immediately upon them entering it (willingly or not) and allow a Will save DC10 + 1/2 antipaladin's level + antipaladin's Charisma modifier to negate the effect each round. A fail means they are affected for 1 round.


Technically speaking, the creature's arms move through the aura to attempt a strike at Latro, which qualifies as the creature entering the aura, if only for a brief moment.

If they were striking with a manufactured weapon i'd write it off as the weapon entering the aura and not the creature itself, but it's the creature's own body that enters into the aura and thus the creature becomes subject to its effects.

Re: Championship #15: Battle for the Belt

I have to agree with Latro on this the Elementals enter the Aura while striking at Latro and must make a save.

Re: Championship #15: Battle for the Belt

Fair enough, I can see that.

14:20, Today: Josep Gavinho rolled 15,6,24 using D20+4,d20+4,d20+4 with rolls of 11,2,20.  Elemental save vs cowardice.
14:20, Today: Josep Gavinho rolled 14,17,11 using D20+6,d20+6,d20+6 with rolls of 8,11,5.  Elemental save vs despair.

All Elementals fail vs despair.
Only e3 makes the save vs cowardice

and only because it rolled a nat 20. Beautiful.

I'll get my combat post up sooner or later.

Gotta think on what i want to do now that i know the elementals have such a low will save and that two of them are taking a -4 to saves vs fear effects. *evil grin*

It's certainly on my list of things i'd like to do, but as they're above half health, certain arena immunities keep them protected. At least for now.

but, first thing's first. seeing as most of you have probably moved from your positions on my last turn, i'm gonna go a head and roll some free perception to see if i know where any of you are right now.

15:19, Today: Latro Dectus rolled 28 using 1d20+15 with rolls of 13.  Free Perception.

do i know where you people that are hiding are?

Given distances, you don't know where Josep is.
You do know where the Elementals are though.

Re: Championship #15: Battle for the Belt

so while perusing the arena rules to make sure i didn't fudge up my stealth rolls again i found this interesting tidbit of information:

quote:
Active Use of Stealth: You must make a new Stealth check as a move or part of a move action every round to actively use Stealth. If you do not actively use Stealth but are still hidden in some way (cover, burrowing, invisible), treat the Perception DC to spot you as -10 + Stealth bonus + other modifiers. In any case there there is a given Perception DC to spot something that is not actively using Stealth, assume this is the case instead of the normal DCs given the Stealth skill description.
For example, detecting a burrowing creature is not DC25, but DC -10 + 10/foot of thickness + active Stealth. So a creature directly beneath you would have at least 1 foot of thickness (10 -10 = 0) and be DC0 + Stealth bonus whereas a creature 1 space below you would have (50-10= 40) DC40 + Stealth bonus. Of course, a creature with Tremorsense, Blind Sense, or Blind Sight would have no problem detecting a burrowing  creature within range, no Perception necessary.


Ill be getting my post up soon

Re: Championship #15: Battle for the Belt

Latro effortlessly dodged the attacks of the elementals. However, it was in this moment that he lost track of where Haran was.
He knew he wasn't safe where he was any longer and so opted to escape as quickly as possible while still maintaining his sneakiness. Perhaps the elementals would take an interest in Haran instead of him this time around.
