Chapter 39: Post-War Reflections
The Magic Missile ignores any concealment and defense under the manipulation of the force field, and can hit any target 100%.
It bypassed the iron shield in the skeleton's hand on the spot and crashed directly into the skeleton warrior's body.
At this time, the skeleton warrior's scimitar happened to arrive, and it slashed straight down at Zhao Xu.
Zhao Xu, who had just finished casting the spell, was also ready to dodge.
It's just that the aftermath of the impact of the energy-condensed magic missile is endless, and the skeleton warrior's body suddenly stagnates, and then disappears on the spot.
The arena fell into calm again, and the summons were projected into Arthur, and after death, they turned into energy and dissipated, leaving no trace.
Zhao Xu wiped his cold sweat and sighed secretly.
At this point, he has seen the contents of his character card information panel.
[Players cast a first-level arcane "magic missile"]
[The magic missile hits the skeleton warrior, dealing 1D4+1=4+1=5 damage.] 】
[The current HP of the skeleton warrior is less than 0, and he is killed.] 】
If it weren't for the fact that the summoned skeleton warrior had less than average health, he happened to have a maximum of 5 damage from the magic missile.
Otherwise, just now, whether he was hit or not is still between the two.
At this time, footsteps came from behind Zhao Xu, and it was Antinoya walking over.
She looked at Zhao Xu and asked, "Are you satisfied with your results?" ”
Zhao Xu just shook his head.
"It's not necessarily that you're not doing well, let's summarize it first. Tell us what you think? Antinoa said.
At this time, Zhao Xu began to tell the information of the skeleton soldier first, from the HP estimate to the approximate attribute value, he basically said eight or nine.
"Very good, the first step in a mage's battle is intelligence preparation." Antinoa responded.
"Generally speaking, before we mages fight, we need to know the enemy's information before we can prepare for it. As for the new mage, there are no prophecy spells that can be used to collect in the beginning. But that doesn't mean you can give up on the job. Arthur has so many places to gather intel that they won't even be blocked by the spells of the spells. It's good that you're able to take advantage of your players. ”
Zhao Xu smiled, now there is no information about the skeleton soldier in the forum at all, he relies on the memories of his previous life.
Fortunately, Antinoya can't log in to their players' forums now, otherwise he will definitely be demolished.
"The second point is that after knowing the enemy's intelligence, it is self-preparation. A prepared mage raids an unprepared mage, and if the two levels are the same, the basic odds of winning will definitely be seven or three. ”
Speaking of this, Antinoya looked straight into Zhao Xu's eyes.
"What do you tell me about the role of mage armor?"
Zhao Xu didn't even need to open the character card panel to say it.
"Can provide Tier 4 armor protection for defense."
"What about time?" Antinoa asked.
Zhao Xu was stunned for a moment and said, "1 hour per caster level." ”
He suddenly took a deep breath, "After I teleported, I should have cast this spell in advance." ”
This spell lasts too long compared to other spells.
Tier 4 armor adds value, which can help him reduce his hit chance by 20%.
"Well, so next time you have to remember that as long as you can confirm that the battle is about to begin, you must seize every time to bless yourself with spells."
"Then you go ahead and talk about the considerations you made when you saw the skeleton warriors rushing towards you?" Antinoa continued to lead.
Zhao Xu has basically cleaned up his mind now, and he said slowly: "My first consideration is naturally to release the spell 'Mage Armor', so that the probability of it trying to hit me will drop from 60% to 40%. ”
Although the actual battle environment is complicated, the attack and defense still honestly follow the health rules.
Attack power plus 1D20 (1-20 levels) can penetrate defense as long as it is greater than or equal to the defense level, causing damage to health.
The attack power of the skeleton soldier is only 1 level, and with 1D20, it is only 2-21 levels.
There is only a 60% chance of breaking through his defenses.
"It's just that I'm like this, after all, there is still a chance to be stabbed by the skeleton soldier, and its damage value is likely to kill me directly. So I gave up on the protective spell and wanted to kill him directly. ”
Zhao Xu's HP is 6hp, which is pitiful.
The damage of the skeleton soldier's sword is 1D6+1 (2-7 damage), as long as the D6 range is 5-6, it is just enough to hit the damage that will make him fall directly to the ground and fall unconscious.
"My second consideration at the time was the 'Protect Against Evil' spell, which allowed me to gain +2 deflection defense bonus for my attacks against evil creatures, as well as not taking damage from the minions' innate weapons. It's just that the skeleton warrior is wearing a scimitar that doesn't work, so the benefit of putting this spell is not as good as 'mage armor', and I gave up. ”
"My third consideration at the time was 'Colorful Spray', but the undead nature of the skeleton warrior was completely immune to the special effects of this spell, so I had to give up. As for the Transfiguration, Mentor, you will definitely not agree to switch positions with me, and you will not consider it at all. Weak ray, the benefit is not as good as mage armor. ”
The spell of Colorful Spray is actually a very murderous spell among low-level spells.
As long as the opponent's will immunity fails, the creature under the 2HD life dice will be stunned, blinded, and stunned for 2d4 rounds, then blinded and stunned for 1d4 rounds, and finally stunned for 1 round.
When the time really ran out, basically all creatures were broken up.
Skeleton Warrior health is 1D12, and 1HD's life dice are exactly no more than 2HD.
It's just that its undead nature is just right to immunity to coma and shock.
This also embarrassed Zhao Xu.
After listening to Zhao Xu's explanation, Antinoya nodded and said, "In the zero-level spell, striking the necromancer can cause 1D6 damage, why don't you use it?" ”
Zhao Xu shook his head, "This spell has to carry out a long-range contact attack, and it has to pass the opponent's defense level first, and the probability of hitting the opponent is only 35%. Not to mention, the expected damage of the magic missile is 3.5, which is actually the same as the expected damage of striking the necromancy. Then I'm definitely inclined to use a magic missile that hits 100 percent. ”
"Well, I finally don't have a brain, and I don't think that the other party is an undead creature, so I just use the garbage spell of striking the necromancy." Antinoya was satisfied.
"You can react directly to this in the electric light, and it's okay. Today's lesson is to let you know where the gap in actual combat is. ”
"In the future, you still have to beware of undead, mud monsters, constructs, elementals, and plants at the beginning, and think about how you will target them when you encounter them. Among them, the elements are better, and the remaining four basic poor ghosts have nothing to do. ”
Zhao Xu nodded, although the undead creatures had a little less health because they didn't have a physique, their massive immunity could indeed give every mage a headache.
Then, the second test begins. As long as you can cast a spell to hit me, there is a reward. Antinoa said with a certain smile.
