Dungeon 14 Turn 4
————
Kamau and Macadamia continue their battle. Kamau takes 5 damage from two incoming attacks plus the cooling magma on the ground, but he creates an opening for Mac’s shocktail to dismount and defeat the dragon rider! The salavamander seems less coordinated without its master present.
After receiving some trap intel from Ricki, Botanya opens the nearby chest and finds two more magic lenses. These ought to come in handy. She drops her oven mitts to make room for them.
Ricki enters the lower hallway of the third room, then uses her incredible eyes to gaze through both the ceiling and her enemy’s robes, spotting the three reinforced crossbow bolts that she carries. With this new information in mind, Ricki then returns to the previous chamber.

BOLT, HEAVY
Ammunition
Can be used with a crossbow. Deals +2 damage. Expended after use.
Weight 1 (Stack 3), Cost 4
Plan: Finish the Fight.
Kamau: Smoke the cigarettes and attack Sally. Try not to get addicted. Pick up the Magma shield after and drop the steak and Horn.
Ricki: Point out the pressure plate in front of Botania again. Attack Sally with your Swiftblade. Use Midas Gloves and collect the shiny gold.
Mac: Smif the Heavy shield you’re carrying into a Dodge Ring.
Botania: Avoid Trap and move past Sally. Open Chest 1.
Sally should have taken 4-6 dmg from Kamau’s Cleave (depending on if Riders Def boost counts). Assuming worst case, 4, we need to do 21 attack to finish it.
Cigs put Kamau and Ricki up to 22.
This should clear this room and give us some time for some inventory management depending on Chest contents.
I wonder, the magma is hot, right? I wonder, how long it will last. Maybe it can be used to cook some meat if we find any.
If we had raw meat and dropped it on the floor maybe. I’d be all for trying!
Inventory management.
With a better idea of the dungeon and layout, we probably need to readjust some inventories. I am especially worried about that kobold miner group since they are intelligent, and do 15 dmg with a 20% chance each to add +3. Only counter we have to that is dodge rings.
My thoughts:
Get Kamau another Dodge Ring and a Heavy Shield (or Magma Shield)
Get Horn on Mac so it can be reused
May want to leave bomb or midas gloves behind for now.
Plan: Finish the Fight but with better inventory management
Ricki: Point out the pressure plate in front of Botania again. Attack Sally with your Swiftblade. Use Midas Gloves and collect the shiny gold.
Botania: Avoid Trap, open the chest next to Sally’s tail and loot the defense ring from the battle into your finger.
Kamau: Smoke the cigarettes and attack Sally. Try not to get addicted. Pick up the Magma shield after, dropping as needed to make space horn then steak in a pile with whatever is spilling out of Botania’s chest
Mac: Smif the Heavy shield you’re carrying into a gold dodge ring and loot the attack ring and heavy shield from the battle, leaving any remaining drops in a pile with whatever is spilling out of Botania’s chest
Botanya and Mac can get battle loot without damage risk and a single pile is better than littering everywhere cuz we can later interact with the whole pile in 1 action.
I think we should we test if Sue can loot. Simple stuff, just have Ricki ask her to pick up the mittsz for example.
