Heh, looks like you were right Shin. No reward for me :(

Clearly you should have just murdered all the gnomes to begin with.

Agreed. They were jerks anyway.

Shin, my problem is that I can only get 8 rows. Not the 10. I was originally thinking the 3x3 block, so the fallacy would have come from counting the two middle rows twice (the ones that form the +), so any help past that would be appreciated. Also, I would have totally been on here yesterday but I couldn't connect at school for some reason.

I'll give you the hints i gave Shin - if you start with the 3x3 block, you only need to move two of the trees. In Shin's example where he got nine rows but not ten (on the previous page somewhere), he moved the correct trees, just to the wrong places. I think the only other hint i gave had something to do with turning lines into Xs.

Or to put it another way:

Dammit. I'm such an idiot.

Wait, that still doesn't quite work. Now we have vertical rows of 2, so there's still only 8 lines.

It works. Three horizontal lines, one vertical line. A tall skinny "X" on either side, and one huge "X" made from the four corners and the center.

Anybody got any lightning based powers?


Edit: Ok I looked and Wvlf's Spellbinders gift could turn at least half of our weapons to lightning damage and we could dip them in the water and fry whatever those are. Anyone have any feelings about this plan?

If you're desperate to kill all the fish then that might work, sure.

It just occurs to me that there's enough room here for a bad roll to dump someone in the drink and I don't think these things are probably going give that fellow a cupcake and send him on his way. If they're all dead we can even just swim over at our leisure. Plus I think pang might be implying that there's something of interest underwater and whoever checks that out probably doesn't want to be fish food.


Also why wouldn't we want to kill all the fish?. Everyone loves a good old fashioned fish fry!

I dunno. There's probably some non-attack option that we haven't figured out yet. Possibly something to do with weight on the platforms we're on. Let's hold off on frying. Plus it seems like my lightning-based power (Thunderclap Strike) ain't doing any lightning damage when I use it, so I don't know if lightning-enhanced weapons would necessarily fry the water.

That would be because thunderclap does thunder damage. I'm still not quite sure why they did the whole lightning and thunder damage as different things maneuver really. I guess it's supposed to be equivalent to sonic but that seems like an odd rename.

I don't think there are any official rules on lightning/water combo's but I could swear rigged something for that at least once before.

My only concern here is that once someone's in the water with those things we're going to have to haul them out fast and run for it or engage in an aquatic combat that we're not really built for.

Plus we can't scope out what's going on underwater safely with them around.

Worst case scenario we waste utility power and move on from there.



Edit: Fuck it I'm turning into Zerg lets just go with Shin's rope plan.

I could turn into a tree and feed them acorns.




Just sayin'.

That depends entirely on whether the leaf already in there is an oak leaf. Could you not perhaps jump in the air then turn into a tree, sink to the bottom and see what's down there? I'm pretty sure Pirannah don't eat trees.

Alternatively: We could push him in as a not a tree and they'd be quite full.

If he's not down for that, the tree thing.

If we catch any we could see if they'll eat their own kind. If so, chumming the water near Deni and then having him shoot at them would theoretically kill them according to the Mythbusters "fish in a barrel" experiment. Assuming of course that the fish aren't magical. Or the water. It's a magical tomb so all bets are off.

Is it bad that I'm just now realizing that maybe I WAS supposed to turn into the tree to allow y'all a hook-point for travelling?

Ahahaha, you could always chuck the box to Beefi so he can turn into a tree and you guys can swing over using the branches.

I'm just gonna try to distract the piranha and then jump for it. My athletics is way higher than my acrobatics.

I'd be too afraid it'd drop in the water and then suddenly later we're in a Saw film where we actually need it but OOPS FUCKED UP.

Has anyone else got plans for the room that preclude me smashing down the wall with the black orb? I imagine there's a fight behind it but if the last room has taught me anything it's that traps and puzzles are much more dangerous to us.

I'm pretty bored of all the puzzles, let's smash the shit out of this room and move onto a fight.

Alright I've done all I can I'm running like a bitch next round if I'm still alive. Fucking snakes.

Does anyone else have any AoE attacks they can use to murder those snakes? Beefi's not really in the way since he can back-track out before anyone gets as far down the tunnel as he is and if it wasn't for the snakes we could have easily held the fight in that small room. As it is, I reckon a hasty retreat might be the order of the day. If we surround the tunnel entrance and all ready melee attacks we can kill the snakes as they pop out one at a time then fuck up the skeleton afterwards. He can't possibly be as hard as the gargoyle and we killed that in three rounds.

Edit:

Actually, someone could use our "Mow Down" card to wipe out the snakes. Who's got the best chance of hitting them with a melee basic attack?

Edit 2:

It's Garold with +13 for a basic melee attack. If you didn't mind getting into melee range, Chanic, you could potentially murder your way through the lot of them in one turn (It's unlikely but you only need as many good rolls as Cette just made bad ones). If you don't want to move to melee range then Beefi could try it (+12 to hit on a melee basic attack) although the bad guys will of course have to draw some blood before he gets involved in the actual fighting. :)
