This is ridiculous! I can barely damage this thing!
Alice nonetheless tries to remain in Cat's sentinel reach and continues her attack on the bulette with the spear and an unarmed strike.

But thanks for clarifying this. I can do little more than continue my attack. I'll save my last Ki point for the time being.

Cat isn't too much for such tactics but I agree the skeletons are so weak they are a good distraction. She'll leave them for now and attempt another Heavy blow on the bulette if she has advantage.

« Last post by Joy on January 18, 2026, 05:32:03 am »Cat again gives [2d6=8] temporary HP to Alice and moves 5ft NW so the bulette, skeleton 2+3 are in reach. Then she attacks them using Sweep.
[HIT vs AC12,12,22 1d20+5+2+1+2d4=32S1,+5+2+1+1d4=29S2,+5+2+1+1d4=28B][DMG 2d6+STR+1+2RAGE, +3, +6=11,19,22]
With one fell swoop, Cat takes out two skeletons and does significant damage to the Bulette. Cat then re-positions herself so she can aid Nixie with Sentinel.
Alice attacks the Bulette with her spear 1-handed, then uses her bonus unarmed strike to hit the skeleton N of her with bludgeoning damage.
[HIT 1d20+3+2+2d4,+1d4=(29,25),CM][DMG 1d6+3+1Hone=8/2=4]
Alice's spear barely penetrates it's stony hide, resisting half the piercing damage, then she misses the skeleton with a wide swing.
If possible, she repositions herself on the bulette to be within Cat's Sentinel range, but maintaining a grapple and staying away from the beast's jaws has priority. Her movement leaves her open to attack from Skeletons 7 and 8, they take the attack of opportunity.
[HIT vs AC14 1d20+4=21,23][DMG 2d4+4=7]
They both manage a hit, the first hit is deflected to the Bulette for 4/2=2 damage the second hits her for 3/2=1 damage.
Ashley shakes her head and mumbles to Yulya, "the skeletons were good fodder, they shouldn't be attacking them."
Yulya casts Bane on the Bulette.
[CHA vs DC15 1d20-2=15]
It saves against the spell.
"First of all, don't panic, we're chipping away at it. If more show up, then panic.
Ashley casts Summon Mechathereal Lynx, Helga pops into the world moves to a position around the Bulette and attacks.
[HIT 1d20+4+1d4, +5+1d4=(24,15)(25,CR)][CON vs DC15 1d20+6 = 2,16][DMG 1d4+2+1=7 Magical Piercing + (1d6+3)*2/2=6]
Both hits connect for a total of 11 damage and Nixie's bite manages to wound its right knee causing a drop in mobility by 5ft should it try to move. In addition it appears to be growing wary of the battle, the bulette is showing its injuries, the attacks are making a difference.
The skeletons attack whatever they can reach.
[HIT 1d20+4=(9,17)N,(7,23)H,(14,9)B,(16,8)B][DMG 1d4+2N=3,1d4+2H=3]
They manage to hit Nixie and Helga.
Now the Bulette takes his turn, using it's bite and claws
[HIT 1d20+6,+2,-2=(9,11,CM)]
Striking at skeleton6 and Helga, it misses on all accounts.
[HIT vs AC12,12,22 1d20+5+2+1+2d4=32S1,+5+2+1+1d4=29S2,+5+2+1+1d4=28B][DMG 2d6+STR+1+2RAGE, +3, +6=11,19,22]

It requires an action to fill the focus, yes.
No, its intelligence is lower than 8 so it can't be affected by Ashley's curse. The curse requires the target to have intelligence higher than 7.

« Last post by Yulya on January 17, 2026, 04:58:14 pm »Yulya uses her Ring of Quick Casting. She empties her focus to boost Toll the Dead and amplifies it with her goblin staff releasing everything on the monster.Yulya is both underwhelmed by the apparent damage of her magnificent spell and horrified it apparently awakened all the skeletons
With a near deafening bell that kicks up dust and splashes green goo, Yulya's spell rings true on the beast dealing a total of 20 damage on it. However, the necrotic damage seems to resonate with the skeletons in the chamber, eight small skeletons awaken and begin to shift. Wielding whatever they can manage to grasp, they join the battle.
Ononono I do not want to do this! Did I do this? Ashley what do we do now?
Yulya watches in confusion as everyone is attacking everyone. She decides to cast BANE on the bulette.

>blindsight to anything that touches the ground within 120 ft
so if you stand on a barrel it cant see you? or is that also touching the ground?
refilling the focus costs an action right?
