Yeah...and at this point in the battle I'm not sure that would be a prudent use of my round (or an action point). Unless Chambers fires back with "all my attacks are melee 1" or something to that effect.

Then again, we know the enemy(ies) can force saving throw rerolls, but to what degree I don't know.

yeah, its not a great option to burn a standard when the chance of Arya saving is 1/4 (if re-roll is forced).

I think the the CW enemies are the ones the force the re-roll.

Correct, she is still inside it. She attacked with Ice Storm this round, and next round will be attacking with Fireball, both of which have range 20. If that doesn't entice any of them into coming upstairs to check if the wall is real, she'll pepper them with Arc Lightning (also range 20) until they do.

If they do, well I don't want to give anything away but she does have a push 5 as an at-will so they could be taking a fall.

My impression has been that this is a feature of where we're fighting, not so much as who. I think we've had to reroll every successful save since we've been in this dungeon, but again that's just my impression and I didn't look back to check if that's the case.


And uh, not to be helping the DM against us or anything and it probably doesn't matter anyway since Infernion did more damage than needed to kill the devil with his attack, but doesn't [Dominate] prohibit the use of immediate actions?

The immediate interrupt occurred before the dominate attack. It was in response to the first attack the devil made.

Yeah, you aren't sure as to what makes you throw saves again, but I bet you could figure it out if you used your eye-balls

He's got one at-will that is range 10 but other than that he's mostly melee.

Um, it seems I forgot that the wall is "sustain minor." But, since Mai didn't move on the map, can we just say that she stayed put and traded her move action for a minor to keep the wall up? That was certainly the intent. Sorry!

Let me think about it for a bit. It definitely wouldn't be a problem if you had only gone last turn or the turn before......but being 2nd to go and quite a few people have already gone in between you, including enemies, let me think on it for a bit.

I know, I really wish I'd noticed it yesterday. Gah! I feel so dumb.

About the only thing I can offer is that I think we've been treating it as though the wall's still there, yes? That's what the intent has been, and she didn't really move, soooo.......

I'm pretty certain the reason we have been forced to do rerolls is because of enemy units. Celtic was generous enough to let slip the word "powers" when referencing whatever was making Kadaith reroll.

Going off of past descriptions, we've faced certain enemies in this room that we did in the last because they fled the battle to deeper parts of the dungeon. I just don't remember if those were the same dudes that forced those rerolls.

Would you guys like me to move on, since Ascy hasn't posted yet? I always feel weird about just moving on, without letting people go with their turns......but if I must, I must.

unless Ewin has a ranged attack, he cannot really do much this round except for move closer to the enemies.

True, perhaps a double move would be best?

That's what I was thinking. Sent him a PM saying pretty much that.

I might just move him, then, if he doesn't post after a while. At least that way he is closer.

I think 24 hours is a reasonable amount of time. Keep things moving along I guess.

@Scy - Yes, wall is still there. Just for everyone's knowledge, please try and keep up with your sustains.....one turn after yours is ok to remember "Ah crap, sus Minor", but from now on anything past that.....and that includes me......the power will dissipate.

Also, Scy, too bad that the AP effect didn't reach anyone Sucks for poor Arya

Oh, one more thing for all you magic people.....as a house rule, and I don't know if it is like this anyway in 4e, but you are not affected by your own magic. I.e. if Mai "Fireball"'s herself, she wouldn't be targeted by her own spell.

I apologize for not making my last turn; my PC finally hit negative hit points, so I need to get a new one (well, on the bright side, now I have an excuse to upgrade my old pos :P).
For the time being, I got my dad's notebook, so there shouldn't be any problems in the foreseeable future.

No prob man. Honestly wasn't much Ewin could do but take a double move. So if you were going to choose a turn to miss, that was it!!
