hm... well let's see if I get to attack with your readied

Barberration Turn 3

Swift: Travel Devotion to J16 to get running start, then continue to J22
Free: Whirling Frenzy
Full Round: chargepounce Goltoth in X23. This brings me to U22

attack 1 - (1d20+8)[28] +2/-2 frenzy, +2 charge
damage 1 - (2d4+12)[19]
Miss low 1 - (1d100)[93]

attack 2 - (1d20+8)[11] +2/-2 frenzy, +2 charge
damage 2 - (2d4+12)[18]
Miss low 2 - (1d100)[26]

let's see what that and your readied do before ending turn

[TheFallenOne]

crit confirm - (1d20+8)[26] +2/-2 frenzy, +2 charge
extra damage - (4d4+24)[35]

holy smokes. That would be nice if I get the attack in

[Master_Rahl22]

You can pop the readied action spoiler, but I'm not entirely sure how things should be handled. If my readied action triggers after you move but before you make your charge attacks then I'm still not sure if anything will save me because moving anywhere would provoke an AoO. If your charge attacks were negated but I provoked an AoO would you use the same dice or have to reroll? If you use the same, then that's the match. If not, then I'll post what I do and we go on from there.

[TheFallenOne]

hm, I hadn't though about that... I don't think the rolls for my first attack get substituted for the AoO, but not entirely sure

I'll ask in the Waiting Room, let's assume I need new rolls for now. In that case, I make a trip attempt to keep you in place and make that 54 damage crit hit after all

touch attack - (1d20+8)[14]
Miss low - (1d100)[79]
opposed strength check - (1d20+8)[22]
second opposed strength if I lose first one - (1d20+8)[28]

[TheFallenOne]

alright, as expected new rolls. Touch 14 hits, miss chance overcome. Beat strength 22 or you go prone and get eviscerated by a 54 damage crit

[Master_Rahl22]

Lol, need an 18 to survive

Str check - (1d20+4)[20]

So close, and yet so far. So, new match?

[TheFallenOne]

first we need a match call, then the tie breaker.Let's see who beats whom up this time

And I have to say, dealing 54 damage with one swing feels awesome

[Scorer]

I wonder if a Fort Save to avoid insta-death with 50 damage will someday be seen in arena?

High Ref Scorer

Barberration takes a new single hit damage record and the victory

[TheFallenOne]

well, by level 3 you can have characters who survive that amount of damage without bending over backwards... Easiest would be a dragonborn water orc while raging. Great constitution, best HD. So yeah, it could happen

[hustlertwo]

I'd say best would be an Elan with Enhanced Damage Resistance. We already have a couple of level 3 guys who can take 50 and keep on ticking.
