Dice Trial by Fire - Exalted 2e OOC

[Sherwood]

Sorry. If you keep playing smart and working together like this, you guys will most likely win this fight, but I don't want to make it too easy for you.

 

[Psychie]

Do you want me to wait to make my attack post until after the attack on Rykon is resolved?

 

[Sherwood]

Up to you.

 

[Psychie]

I'll wait. Got a few errands to run first.

 

[Rykon]

Going to try and raise my DV with a stunt, so target is level two, yes? I'll have to wait till I'm back home so I can type properly.

 

[MasterDAF]

This is one intense fight! Nothing like a large gathering of Solar-level combatants to really get the ol' essence flowing, am I right?

 

[Psychie]

essence flowing

Essence flowing. I see what you did there! lol

 

[Rykon]

Hopefully, this next onslaught will really make him burn out more essence.

If this plays out how I suspect, the Death Knight is either considering turning coat on Filial, or waiting for an opening to get the drop on one of us.

 

[Kalin Scarlet]

Well crap, I haven't been getting notifications again....

 

[Psychie]

Well, now you are here, and should join back in the fun!

 

[Kalin Scarlet]

I'm not even sure what to do at this point....again.

 

[MasterDAF]

Sherwood Did I get enough successes on the to-hit roll (combined with Strength+DamageOfWeapon) to surpass 24 soak, or should I roll essence ping of 4?

Also, should I roll [post-soak or ping] twice for One Weapon Two Blows?

I am guessing that you will not have enough successes to be able to beat the four dice you'll have for ping damage.

Also, the Charm of One Weapon, Two Blows just adds one to the Rate and Accuracy until your next action, so just roll your four dice.

 

[MasterDAF]

Oh yeah, sorry! I forgot that charm changed between 2 and 2.5, oops!

 

[Sherwood]

I'm not even sure what to do at this point....again.

If you wish to get into the fight, go ahead and give me a Join Battle roll and I'll add you to the lineup.

 

[Sherwood]

MasterDAF , just a quick check: Your attack was a Speed 4, correct?

 

[Rykon]

I just realized my Rate is now 4 and not 3 (from upgrading to reaper daiklave over mundane), this is going to get a little more interesting.

 

[Red Shadow Claws]

Rykon If you need to save motes, let me know and Sirocco can Defend Other you.

 

[Sherwood]

I do believe that he had dumped a ton of motes into Infinite Melee Mastery, giving him free use of his Excellency.

 

[Rykon]

After stunt mote recovery, I'm only down 2m by now. I can take another assault like that before I'd need significant cover.
My commitment to charms is 25m 2w atm though. As I did commit to both the scene long excellency discount and defense charm

EDIT: Assuming the defense and attack counted as 1 die stunts, that's another four motes back, so down 14m while still dishing out a mean threat of attack. Not too bad.

 

[MasterDAF]

Sherwood My attacks should be speed 5, I believe.

 

[Kalin Scarlet]

If you wish to get into the fight, go ahead and give me a Join Battle roll and I'll add you to the lineup.

 

[Sherwood]

Kalin Scarlet you've been added to the initiative order

 

[Rykon]

Are we using essence ping or just minimum damage?

Not bothering to use damage enhancers anymore, just too much risk right now with little chance of creeping past the armor value.

 

[Sherwood]

Essence ping. Should be four dice for you.
