Oooow holy titballs those pictures are gigantic.

Anyhow, is there an evil guy or a wizard? Or an evil wizard? Could I get the closest equivalent to that named Xan?

That would probably be Occultist, who as you can guess by the name, deals in, shay we say, the darker side of magic... :P

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.

Is there any class that's focused mostly on non-magical long range damage?  If so, I want one named syvarris.  If not, whatever you get that nobody else has dibs on is fine.

There's supposed to be one eventually(the Arbalest), but that's not any of the playable classes right now

If you just want a ranged class, there are several options. The Highwayman uses a pistol and can operate effectively from the second and third row with grapeshot blast and pistol shot(as well as wicked slice), the plague doctor is a debilitator who inflicts status from the back rows with stuns and plague attacks, the occultist summons eldritch horros to attack at a distance, and there is the grave robber who can trow a dagger and a poison dart.

It's funny how I haven't read the other missions in forever - ever since a little after they started, in fact - but when my turn mentioned a strange glow and something that looked like an early sunrise I could only think of space magic suns or nuclear blasts followed by the unlikely possibility it was a strange mechanism/tool from the government.

And when I returned to the sub-board, I checked the name of Mission 18. Welp.

At least now that I finally got nearly every single uni problem out of my way and have to deal only with one of the trickiest ones (thesis, surprising amount of problems before graduating), I can follow the game properly and even caught up with the OOC thread.

So this is our starting party. Pretty good. 10 seconds in Chief steps on a trap and loses about 20% of her health. OFF TO A GREAT START!



And here's our first battle. Lot of fucking skeletons around here.



We make it through fairly ok, but the big problem here is that we have no real healing ability. Hapah can heal somewhat, but the healing also does damage. It's not great.



Oh good more fucking 40k cosplayers. Luckily May's zealous accusations deal holy damage which these fuckers dislike. I manage to do a lot of healing in this fight thanks to May and Chief having good bleed resist.  Guess what we find in the next room?



Did I wander into a comic-con? Fucking hell.

We manage to cut down the Heretics and then a room of generic skeletons without MUCH difficulty. Still, we're getting pretty tired.



And then there's another room of skeletons and we're done with our quest! Woooo! They're all doing pretty well, but chief, for some reason, is really fucking stressed.



We make it back to town and grab Toaster, Aoshi and Kyle from the Abby. They seem far less crazy, though still pretty stressed. Next I head over to the Stage coach and see who we can recruit. We recruit Kriellya the Vestal, Ronald the Jester and Beirus the Leper.

Here's the next party going in.

Hap, Ronald, May and Beirus.

This dungeon is kind of a bitch because it's long and it's also stretching out in two directions meaning I need to go one way then back the other, wasting food and torches the whole way. Well fuck. 

I manage to get through one part of the dungeon without any real problems. Hapah's ability to heal is interesting. It heals 0-10 and inflicts bleed (or at least it normally would, but they usually resist it) so there's not only a large random range of healing, but if you get the low end it might actually hurt more then it heals. Still, It's managing to keep the team alive though all at around half health the entire time. That, of course, until I get this situation:

That enemy there is only really good at long range. At short range he can't do anything but poke you with its bayonet for small damage. So I stuck Berius up front and just had him continuously self heal to tank damage while Hapah repeatedly healed the rest of the troop and Ronald heals all their stress. 

Get Fucked, skeletons, we're back to full. Bitches don't know shit bout my bloodletting.

Ok so there's a lot more fucking about, finding not a lot of anything, camping, wandering, and finally, FINALLY, we reach the last room. We're out of food, out of torches, kinda stressed and sorta injured. Time to do it to it.

Oh thank god it's just some fucking skeletons again. Lets hope they're not suddenly super powerful for some reason.



Well, ronald almost dies, but we manage to some how bring him back to life via cutting him. Whatever. This is how we end the dungeon. Thank god for that session of breaking the game earlier, or we'd probably be dead. Or at least far more unhappy.


Making mad bank



Oh dear.

I had to throw Toaster back in the church since she was still like 60-70% nuts. Other people probably go back in tomorrow.
