Splinter is definitely going to Mind's Weakness top, to get the buff in play. Question is, does she Hypnotoad the golem, Cannon6, or nobody? If nobody, does she move to C6 to only keep focus from Cannon6, or to C4 (or C5) to take the hit from Cannon6 and the golem? Frankly I'm not certain it's all that terrible for Boris to be Immobilized for a turn, he was probably going to stand around and Doom something anyway. and 2 hits puts Splinter in a slightly uncomfortable place, HP-wise. so...maybe Hypnotoad Cannon6, play the buff and waste its attack (but get the buff, yay), and let Boris get pulled by the golem?

I'd stun the golem. Being immobilized sucks and having disadvantage on the golem would suck, although I guess he could shoot at a cannon next turn.

# ? Nov 12, 2020 16:35 |

If I (Boris) get pulled by the golem then artillery 4's attack will only hit me, so instead of the party getting hit for 9 attack this round it will only be 7. Although if we get hit for 9 it will be much more spread out, each of us taking an attack 3. EDIT: If Splinter stands still, will she get focus from artillery 4 because it can reach her using the AoE template even if she's 5 hexes away? If so, stunning the golem is probably the best option since the party would only get hit for 6? Reik fucked around with this message at 16:53 on Nov 12, 2020 |

I would stun the golem. Unless Boris is able to go invisible, he'd be stuck next to an angry golem next round after having taken 2 attacks already. If we stun the golem, we can also immobilize it next round so it won't be able to attack again. Reik to answer your question, the first focus tiebreaker is distance to the target, and since Boris is closest to Artillery #4, he'll be the one attacked.

No, Focus is first calculated based on distance, initiative only comes into account if the two potential foci are at the same distance from the attacker

SalTheBard posted:My goal is to attack 2 targets, then move to generate elements for next round. Don't forget to lean on Splinter for Ice generation - like, this turn, she's making Ice. With a little notice, she can choose cards to have ice ready for you basically whenever you want it. ok, I'm convinced that stunning the golem is the right play. Splinter should stand still, stun the golem, and stand still to buff.

SalTheBard posted:EDIT: I also have never ever played a Spellweaver before so if I'm doing dumb stuff please tell me. Find a quiet moment to summon your summon. It's range 3 and your modifier deck is really good now, so it's going to do a lot of work during the scenario. Apart from that, Spellweaver seemed to me fairly straightforward. Deal damage, Splinter is ice on demand if needed, you've got a single shot of gently caress shield enemies from your bow. Keep it to excorsise some spirits. Shall we ignore this golemand go forward yes/no? On one hand, it's in the way and it'd get two free attacks by the time we pass it into next room. On the other it's 17 HP shield 3.

SalTheBard posted:I'm thinking next round I could use the Ice and Fire for Cold Fire which might be fun. Yeah, you get to choose. The ice part of Cold Fire is definitely the more important part, but you've got sources of fire so it's not hard to line them up with Splinter for a fully elemental'd Cold Fire. As far as the Shield Golem goes, I can wait to set up my persistent buff until the second room and use the doom on that to make it much easier to bring down if we want to go that route.

You can of course use elements someone else's created if they act before you in the Round! Also, if the elemental pinwheel has a red cross on it (like the one on Mana Bolt top), it means "consume any element" instead of "create any element"

Plans? Splinter could stun somebody and still leave Ice for Lina if she needs it. E: We can decide where the stun should go after the enemy action reveal E2: for a more long term discussion, I assume we'll be going as a group towards one of the ends with the plates then Splinter turns around when the situation is under control and cheeses the other end with her sprinting prowess?

SalTheBard posted:I'm going to summon and do damage so I won't be moving this round Splinter needs to consume the current Ice element to get the stun off on the Golem, but they're going to generate Ice again on their turn that you can use, so if your attack needs to consume or benefits from consuming an element it would be cool if you could do it after Splinter goes.

Elements stay active: - from the end of the Turn of the character who has generated them; - to the end of the next full Round. Unless someone uses them first They become "waning" at the end of the Round they are being generated and "inert" at the end of the following Round.
