What's the Damage of a Thrown Roy Greenhilt?
This is (obviously) just for the lulz... but...
Is it 1 object (paperweight improvised as boulder: Roy)?
or
2 objects: Roy (bludgeoning damage) + Sword (slashing damage, like a throwing Axe; just... you know... not an Axe)?
Does V require Proficiency - Exotic Weapon: Flying Meat Shield (like a Flying Talon; just... you know... not an Talon)?
Roy's sword is magical and slicing. Does that count like the magical razor-sharp talons of death Blackwing wanted?
SOOO MANY QUESTIONS!!!= = = = = = = = = =
Meanwhile, a tree branch falls to the ground and waits for the Fighter destined to awake him by pronouncing the true name "stick" and the almost religious care of a naive Bard.

Re: What's the Damage of a Thrown Roy Greenhilt?
Forceful Hand cannot throw an object, only push it. So you are making a melee attack, not a ranged attack. Since the hand has no class bonuses that give it multiple attacks per round, you can only hit with 1 object.
You are trying to hit a 35 AC Nightcrawler with a -4 attack penalty for using an improvised weapon. You will only hit on a natural 20.
A paralyzed Roy would have a damage of 1d6 bludgeoning. Even with a double damage critical hit, 12 damage is not enough to overcome the Nightcrawler's 15 damage resistance.
So the answer is zero damage. Blackwing's strategy is much better, play for the 5% chance of a hit from the Greenhilt Sword.Last edited by DaveMcW; 2019-04-23 at 02:16 AM.

Re: What's the Damage of a Thrown Roy Greenhilt?
wouldn't Roy count as an improvised weapon?

Re: What's the Damage of a Thrown Roy Greenhilt?
Presumably Durkon is supposed to cast something to restore Roy, but somehow I would not be surprised if Roy+sword are used as an improvised weapon in this way. There could easily be a few end of strip gags in it. Originally Posted by DaveMcW

How to deal with Xykon:
Paralyze Roy.
Sling him around.
100% success!
