Dungeon 13 Turn 59
————
Ricki, Amadeusz, and Ix return to the central room again. Ix picks up the rest of Cordyโs dropped items. They put on the helmet without any problem, as well as the rings, but they canโt wear the oven mitts. Apparently theyโre not fireproof enough. Maybe the inside lining is less protection or something.
Lara continues to trade ineffectual attacks with the guards.
Hey folks can we get the fuck outta here now
The helmet kinda make Ix look like a lantern, which is cool. I wonder if we’ll find a specialized helmet that makes Ix look even more lanternlike at some point.
maybe the diving helmet we’ve already seen?
Plan: put us out of our misery
Amad: Move up
IX: Move up. Loot stupid reg. heavy shield. Drop meat if need be
Ricki: move left. End dungeon.
Lara: attack justicar
Fire wisp is now docile. Should we ask for it to follow Ix as we leave?
If anyone could ask the wisp it would be ix. But they are grabbing shield…
don’t grab cigs. That’s one surprise dmg for Lara. Just… don’t push our luck.
Ooooh I see. Lara has 4hp. If she smokes the cigs, she’ll drop to 3hp, and we’ll see if the armour kicks in again. Ok. That’s rather safe experiment to try out!edit: smoking is bad for your health. kids, do not do it. adults, go find a safer hobby. Lara, ignore the cigs, you’ve already have one cancer.
No cigs here
Removed the cigs option.
I’m almost positive they will prioritize their prisoner. We sure we want them approaching before the guards are gone?
The guards aren’t going to be gone. We’ll be getting a full patrol next turn, and with our current power we won’t be able to deal with 2 Justicars, 4 guards, a dog, and a pigeon that will immediately summon more.
At least we have Ix in some defensive equipment now?
Actually maybe we should try to go back and get a few more items while we’re here.
I Make Bad Decisions face reveal?!
Just a fan of his work
Plan: Same As Claudious’ neener neener neener
–
Lara: Be princess carried out of the dungeon by Ricki.
Amadeusz: Go up the ladder. Jump over the small gap in the floor. Sniff out the invisible pack of cigarettes and eat it off the floor. Then head up with Ix.
Ix: Up the ladder, jump over the small gap in the floor and head up. Pick up the heavy shield by the metal door. If you need space, drop the meat, and then the oven mitts if you need more space.
Ricki: Head left, end the dungeon.
Nice plan with cigs ๐ Lara has 4hp. If she smokes the cigs, sheโll drop to 3hp, and weโll see if the armour kicks in again. This could be fun combo with armour. Slow automatic regen to 6hp without actions, without falling from ledges/traps/etc!edit: smoking is bad for your health. kids, do not do it. adults, go find a safer hobby. Lara, ignore the cigs, you’ve already have one cancer.
I see you too removed cigs ๐ healthcare rulez!
What are y’all doing, that wisp is not pacified, it can kill Lara when ix is out of the room. Not a risk to take for smokes
Edit: other plan ls have been edited to implement this proposal so I’m taking it down
Debuff is at -1 atk at this point, so patrol has 3+3+2+6=14. Throw in a wisp and smokes and she’s dead
I see Lara has two shields crossed. Is she still under debuff from the trap? Doesn’t it diminish over time and doesn’t she have effectively 1 def more? Anyways, she has the turtle-armour that will heal her for 3hp if she drops too low, that will effectively negate wisp’s attack. Also, I just noticed, “the cigs” say 10% chance, so unless we deliberately ask her to smoke them, all the plans above will 90% probably have no ‘smoking effect’..
I think the outcome roulette is:
Another thing, so far wisp either (a) followed IX, or (b) attacked person nearest to IX, so Lara should be safe, as IX exits the room and the wisp may follow it, making it safe for Lara to enter the room.
Buuuuut. To be honest. I’ve lost all interest in testing this. Let’s just ignore the cigs and be done with this dung. I mean, dungeon. I flipped all my votes for the other plans to support your safer version.
She’s got -2 def from J debuff. Wisp hasn’t followed ix last turn so I’m pretty sure it will stay. And with ix out of the room it’s attacks will be random, so it has 2 targets: Lara and Ricki.
If J really spent last turn doing nothing and guards target her, she’s got 10%*1/2 to die.
Idea: let’s NOT mess around with Lara trying to eke out another measly 3 GP from an item that she generates for free anyways, regardless of the math, and just GTFO.
Amadeusz: Mend Ricki, move up.
IX: Move up, loot the heavy shield, drop meat if need be.
Ricki: Move left, leave dungeon.
Lara: Romantically carry Ricki out of the dungeon in your arms.
Guys were this close to a full clear. We can do it. Lara and Ix tank while Ricki and Amadeusz DPS.
