[PP - F15] Just that Slow [Floor Boss Battle]

[Tristan Delaney 0]

Tristan nodded to Calrex wordlessly, then faced away from everyone as he walked out of the boss room. It was no longer time for him here. He needed to rest. To relax with his wife. To do something else.

The room around him felt suddenly more chilly than before, but he ignored it as he went home.

The actions had taken a realy unexpected turn. From the start, it felt like some relaxed preparations for an everyday battle. More like work then a game. But now, two off their highest damage dealers was gone. Not only from the fight, but also the game, and in that they also had lost their real lifes. When she saw the crystals that once had been Zelrius and Ssendom slowly disapear into nothingness, the room for Zandra turned red and her heartbeat rised. She unsheathed her whip and looked at the players still present, breathing heavy."No, not now." She grit her teeth and shut her eyes close. Slowly and steadily she returned to normal and opened her eyes. She opened her eyes again and everything was back to normal. Except they was alot fewer players present. Thou it seemed Takao and Mack rallied those that was still there and prepared. They still had a boss to kill. She looked down at the chain weapon in her hands. With a determined looked on her face she nooded at them."Im ready when you are."

[Limbo 2]

The doors open. Any player who does not post within 24 hours of their turn will receive 10 damage and be skipped. If a player is skipped a total of three times, they forfeit any potential rewards and will continue to take damage. Edit your HP in. No more players may enter the thread.

Large doors creak open with a groan. The room is black as the dead of night, softly illuminated by the light flooding in from the doors. Silhouettes of the players stretch along the barren, matte floor. Light from the outside catches on several invisible lines, threads of unknown make or origin. They glisten in the faint breeze, lining the floors, the walls, and hanging loosely from the ceiling far above. As the light leaks to the far wall, something decrepit twitches and extends eight long appendages. Patches of faintly glowing green light begins to bleed through the mysterious webbing, giving sight to to room and the human sized bundles of silver web haphazardly woven about the perimeter. From the shadows, Limbo clambers forward to greet the players and the door shuts behind them. His form is black and yields little detail in the poorly lit room, yet it can be guaranteed that eight eyes focus on the raid party before it. Two dripping fangs, the size of a player's forearm, extend and retract as the massive spider lets loose a shriek. It's body easily the size of a carriage and legs thick as tree trunks, Limbo's name appears with several green bars beneath it. Combat has begun.

[Calrex 0]

The Ultramarine Knight silently as Tristan made his departure, looking down at his hand, as if it held some representation of the <<Achilles>> skill he had just obtained from the redhead. There was still part of him that didn't understand the act, and yet another that seemed to have gained more confidence because of it. With a small sigh his eyes scanned across the group, gritting his teeth as he steeled his senses.

This moment was interrupted by the doors of the floor boss room opened, causing him to turn back and face the darkness within. A moment of hesitation passed before Calrex mustered up the courage and stepped through the doors, "Stay focused. This is not the time to be losing your cool. Even with what's happened, the people here are still working to clear this floor. If I falter, any one of them could die. I'm not going to let another more deaths happen, not if I can do something about it."

Readying the Grand Blade II he raised it high as the light blue energy began to swirl around its blade. As it appeared to reach critical mass he pierced the ground in front of him, releasing his <<Howl>> skill, which echoed throughout the chamber. 

"The time for observing is over. Now is the time to act..."

[Heathcliff 0]

The commander of the Knights of the Blood Oath stood and watched the whole attack unfold. The man kept on a straight face and let it all happen. Soon after the incident, most of the players wanted to remain and take down the boss and move on in the floating castle. The Boss room doors opened up and the remaining players rushed in and prepared to fight <<Limbo>>. The first player to launch an attack was Calrex and he used <<Howl>> to generate some hate so the rest of the players can begin to deal with the boss itself. Heathcliff followed the plan that had been discussed and used <<Hate>> to gather the focus of the boss and other monsters the boss sends
 at the players.

The rest of the players rushed in and prepared their strategy so this boss is defeated in a timely manner and efficiently. After Heathcliff used <<Howl>> he signaled the rest of the players to get moving and begin the assault. The White-haired man looked at Mack and signaled him to make a go at it.

Limbo: 1754/2000 (-246 DMG) [STUNNED]

OOC: I am waiting on clarification on whether or not Minions are currently spawned in the Boss Chamber. No minions, improvising on the fly. 

In his spot in the formation, Mack charged into the nearly pitch black chamber as both Calrex and Heathcliff unleashed their howls which oddly reverberated off of the walls of the chamber. Quickly, as he was still in motion, his storm grey eyes swept the chamber as they sought out the minions he was tasked with eliminating. The only immediately present adversary, though, was Limbo itself and that meant that a change in tactics was called for. It was time to improvise on the fly to take advantage of the delayed spawn mechanic on the horde of minions that Limbo could summon, information that had not been known at the time of the Raid Meeting.

"Takao, everyone, new plan! Surround and destroy the Boss, minion spawn is on some kind of delay in Cardinal," Mack barked, trusting that his orders would properly filter down through the rest of the chain to the other players in Limbo's chamber. With his charge skill already activated, the colossal man who was still dwarfed by Limbo, sprinted across the room and drew back Invictus as the bearded axe glowed with a sinister red light. With a grunt, the ginger man flung himself into the air and swung the heavy axe. The weapon bit into the spider's digital flesh and Mack used the leverage to scramble briefly into the beast's back before delivering two more powerful blows to the back of the spider's head. With a roar, the gigantic Vice Commander (temporarily) of the Knights of the Blood Oath swung the two-handed axe across his body and unleashed a shock wave into the enormous spider's hairy, multiple-eyed body using the force from the final part of the attack to propel himself forward off of the beast to roll neatly up behind the shield wall formed by Heathcliff and Calrex.

"Bring him down!"

Takao drew in a long, slow breath as the doors to the boss room creaked open. The last minute changes to their roster and Tristan's apparent retirement hadn't gone unnoticed, but they were worries he shelved for later. His mind had become fixated on what laid beyond the darkness of the boss room. He had seen the large doors once before, an occurrence that had happened on his own accord. He also recalled the horrifying sight of a massive arachnid beast whose fangs rivaled the length of a grown man's arm, and whose spindly legs would've inspired nightmares had he been sleeping during the weeks between. His head kept telling him to turn and run, but his legs wouldn't budge. Rather than moving toward the exit, he stepped into the darkness behind Mack as every fiber of his being screamed in protest.

He had fully expected to see a dozen spiders skittering about, but instead he was only met with the sight of the boss itself; horrifying in its own right. Mack barked out more orders as their plans changed, and Takao wordlessly forced himself into action. He launched into his own assault behind Mack's own, and cleaved into the body of the beast eleven times. By the time he was throught, it wore large, red, gaping wounds decorated with a white lattice pattern across its side and front.

[Limbo 2]

The massive spider shrieked with each fierce blow. The dull thud of metal against chitin resounded through the room as gaping red wounds opened on its body. Limbo's eyes focused on its prey as the first of many made their advances. Before it could return in kind, the crippling blow of the redhead's axe buckled Limbo's legs. The massive weight of its torso thudded to the sticky, webbed floor. Unable to retaliate, the spider beast focused its efforts on regaining mobility.

As it struggled, more blades bit into its body and Limbo shrieked louder. As if alive, the walls began to stir and a chatter of unknown origin began to grow in volume. The ground they stood upon began to tremble and Limbo began to rise. Down but not out, the massive spider prepared for retaliation.  One whole bar of its HP shrank away into nothing with a sizable chunk of the second bleeding away with each breath.

It seemed like everything was going as it should be going. Macradon would rush in into the fray "Look out if you see any critters roaming around, I'll have AOE attacks ready" he said to Ariel and Manta who were part of his team. He rushed in with his <Charge> skill and with help from Mack's Banner of Command Macradon was able to get a good strike onto the big spider boss. With his overly complicated named sword art, <Calamious Tragedy> he made 4 big red gauges on the the big spider with 4 heavy strikes from his curved two handed sword. His khopesh somewhat cutting more into the spider's body and with strong momentum from his sword's massive size he would be able to deal a great amount of damage on the big spider. The recovery on his vambraces triggered and would recover a bit of his energy, letting him have some energy for the next attack.

The doors openned. After receiving something from Tristan that left the fields as soon as the transaction ended, the ultramarine knight went head on in the boss room and got the attention of all that was inside with his usual flashy 'howl' skill. Seeing the KotB commander do the same, the blonde wandered as she entered the boss room herself: "Where are the dregs?!" she'd spoken out, her voice slightly echoing in the dark room. She shrugged and went with the initial attack group, releasing her most deadly attack on the spider themed boss. The early they kill it the better.

Manta sighed to herself as the doors to the boss room opened. She had never been a part of such a small group for a boss fight, but she was certain that is was going to work out in the end. They had barely been fighting and the boss was already within kill range, well, after Manta attack it would be. She charged in, activating Over Radiation, her sword slashing and jabbing through the air and into the giant spider. The red dots where her rapier had hit started to sizzle, and that was when she knew that the poison she had placed on her sword had activated. Perfect.

<<Silver String Shot>> = HIT!!! (BD: 5 + 3 = 8!) (-3 EVA from Jomei's Alcohol and Negated Armor/Skills due to Room Effect. Is not affected by <<Suvival>>)

Jomei Loses all ACC & is STUNNED!
Zandra & Manta Lose all ACC buffs!

<<Limbo>> used <<Climb>> ( + 20 HP, IMMUNE )

22x <<Hatchlings>> Appear!

Limbo howled as the punishment continued. Giant curved blades, and rapiers ravaged its thick, black carapace. HP bars dropped off like leaves in the wind until the final bar dipped into the red. As if triggered with some demonic possession, Limbo's eight eyes illuminated a piercing crimson red in the dark cavern. The chittering and scratching climaxed to a roar and then... fell silent.

The walls, dark and covered with spindled web, began to glow. Similar piercing dots of red light started as eight, then sixteen, and as if sparked by a chain reaction, a total of nearly two hundred crimson lights lined the chamber wall.

Limbo shrieked loud enough to deter the players from their relentless onslaught. Raising its abdomen skyward, Limbo released a thick, viscous strand of web. With a hiss and a thud, it hit something too high to see in the darkness and without hesitation, Limbo began to ascend. As it did, the walls came alive and hundreds of spider legs gnashed and tore through the webbing. From all around them emerged <<smaller copies of Limbo>>, each the size of the players themselves. They poured onto the boss room floor and skittered over one another haphazardly. Human sized bundles of web fell free from the walls and landed, exposing the blood drained faces of the departed.

Ascended out of sight and free from harm, Limbo unleashed a volley of <<Silver Web>>  from the darkness. Thanks to the lingering effects of <<alcohol>> and the <<thin webbing>> scattered about the room, it slammed into Jomei with intense ferocity, <<stunning>> him as the thick goo poured over his body. Wisps of adhesive, cable-like silver strands splashed off Jomei and wrapped around Manta and Zandra. No matter their struggle, the webbing stuck like glue, limiting their mobility and ability to act with finesse (ACC is now 0 for all three). From its safety, Limbo's barely visible HP bar fell by a tick thanks to a venom not of its own. However, its HP bar quickly rebounded from the damage and then some.

The battle was far from over.

Jomei slowly walked into the boss room with the other still present players. They were at once down four, now five with Tristan's departure. Their tank had just walked out. This fight was already going terribly. The boss' lair was pitch black aside from small streams of light, catching some strands of web and making them visible. Jomei's olive eyes looked around the room, mostly seeing darkness, but trying to catch a glimpse of anything moving. Jomei froze in his step and shuddered when he heard something that sounded like long bony fingers typing on a keyboard, followed by a shrill scream. From the darkness crawled the giant, eight legged arachnid. Jomei's eyes widened as a chill went down his spine. "[censored] [censored] [censored] [censored] [censored]..." he cursed to himself under his breath.

As the fight went on, players getting their share of hits on the boss without many problems. Everything seemed to be going very well as its health bar began to shrink and shrink. That was, until, Limbo called out again with a screech, but it sounded more like a call for assistance. The walls lit up with groups of small red dots for eyes, all which began to flood the floor around them. Small spider minions began to surround the players, making their jobs much more difficult. Jomei stepped back as smaller spiders passed over his boots and around him, shivering with each step. Why did he come here when he was terrified of spiders? The man looked up at Limbo again, and saw that it was looking straight at him as it retreated up into the safety of surrounding foliage. Seconds later, Jomei was hit with Limbo's webbing. The first shot hit him straight in the face, cutting off his vision, making hitting anything rather difficult. On top of that, the second shot of web wrapped his arms together, stunning him.

Zandra followed close after her boyfriend towards the huge spider. She saw its healthbar quickly go down and down. It wasnt far from dead when it escaped to the roof and instead they now have to figth a horde of hatchlings."oh maan." Zandra said to herself. As a whip wielder her AoE sword art was so crazy weak so it wouldnt even be worth it. Or would it? These spiders didnt looked that strong. Also, it would make it possible for the other to save energy by using weaker attacks. No, its better if she do single target and slays it outright. She aimed at the closest hatchling. And with a rain of swungs at it, the spider exploded into crystals.

[Hikoru 0]

Hikoru breathed as soon the doors opened, and he gripped his dagger, walking into the silent room. He felt himself get slower, getting caught on the web that was around his feet, and sighed as it would make it harder to evade attacks. He breathed as soon the boss spawned and it made his skin crawl. He knew he could do a lot of damage, but he would have to wait his turn. But just as his turn arrived, hatchlings appeared around him, and the boss dissapeared. He grit his teeth and sighed, waiting for his skin to stop crawling, then went for an AoE attack onto the hatchlings. He didn't do nearly enough damage to kill them, and he grit his teeth as the hatchlings that he had tried to kill all but got up, only a little more angry than before

"This is why I don't do AoE...." He muttered to himself as he got up and backed away as the hatchlings came all but closer to him. He breathed and looked at his group, and gave them all a nod "We got this guys, don't worry" he said with a small smile on his lips

[Ebony 0]

Ebony glanced around at the party. No one was injured, and she wasn't a DPS of any sort, so it wasn't like she could really do anything at the moment. She watched as the spider boss sprayed white goo all over someone, the stuff also splashing on Zandra and Manta. Hopefully Manta would still be able to hit the boss, they'd need all f their damage dealers to take care of all of the minions and the boss itself.

Quote

«Swarm»: Hatchlings can pile onto a player, instead of attacking them outright. Stunning the player for as many turns as there are Hatchings on him. (See Diverse Hatred) Another Player may attack the hatchings on the player, but that player suffers any excess damage used to kill the Hatching or Hatchlings. (mitigation is applied, and the attacker does not suffer damage from thorns)

From the ceiling above, Limbo chittered musically as her children swarmed the players below. Seeing them outnumbered two to one gave the arachnid a primitive sense of pride... and hunger. She watched as the swarm split off to attack those players which threatened her family most. Limbo hissed as one of her babies burst into shards, but another emerged from the wall to join the pack. As she watched, one such player was completely swarmed by her babies. As <<Hatchlings>> <<swarmed>> onto Ariel, Limbo readied her abdomen and launched another sticky salvo onto the girl. It slammed into her with enough force to stun. Wisps of webbing splashed onto Macradon and Manta, restricting their ability to move with finesse (( Lose all ACC for 2 rotations )).

As Limbo's web drenched Ariel, her <<Hatchlings>> began to slide free from it and weave it tighter onto Ariel. She would be <<stunned>> for some time while Limbo's Hatchlings prepped her for dinner. Though as tight as they clung to Ariel's body, any attempt to loose the <<Hatchlings>> from her would surely also damage the girl beneath ((See Spoiler)).

Meanwhile, a pack of spiderlings stabbed, bit, and lashed out at Calrex, Heathcliff, and Zandra. The first two resiliently withstood the onslaught thanks to thick armor. Thick armor which unleashed shrill screams from the <<Hatchlings>> as they struck and Limbo watched her babies' health tick down from <<thorn>> damage. Zandra was less fortunate. Unlike her larger counterparts, she didn't return any damage to Limbo's babies. Meanwhile, her own HP ticked down from an unknown <<poison>> but recovered substantially thanks to her spider-like <<healing>> ((See Spoiler)).

Calrex gritted his teeth as he saw Limbo vanish up into the ceiling as suddenly the floor raid team was surrounded by a massive amount of minions. As he had suspected, and hoped, a group of them had targeted him as they leapt forward and bit him. He could feel the Thorns ability of the Grand Chariot II trigger as it blasted them back, but then a bit more energy was released from Tristan's newly imparted <<Achilles>> skill, shot radiated another wave of reflective energy at the creature.

Another group had engaged the other tank of his team, Heathcliff. Seeing the man's even more massive health bar made his jaw want to drop, but at this point there was no time to be losing focus. The part that worried him was when he saw Ariel get nearly completely encapsulated in the webbing as another group of spiders latched on, "Tch...that's not good."

"Good thing Ariel went with a bruiser build and focused a bit on mitigation. Right now all I can do is focus on clearing out these mobs."

Glancing over at Heathcliff he gave a nod, "Guess we'd better get started taking care of these things."

Rushing over to the group that had targeted the last team he leapt skywards as if to activate <<Lightning Fall>>, but as he did suddenly he saw the electrical energy fade right as he hit the ground. While the motion was the same, no energy shot out as the Ultramarine Knight looked in surprise, "What?"

There have been many efforts put into this fight from all the players in this raid. The boss <<Limbo>> has been knocked down to 583 HP. The <<Hatchlings>> had finally spawned and started to attack the players. It was time for Heathcliff to show his power and make his strength known to the group. The Paladin loaded his sword and it gave off a golden light. "Now you will see a little bit more of my power" The man said as he sliced across horizontally and activated the skill <<Goliath's Swing>>.

As Limbo ascended the webbing and climbed out of reach Mack tightened his grip on Invictus and allowed his grey eyes to scan around the room. "Get ready..." he called to the group of players just as the first of the spider hatchlings spawned and began to blitz the players. Now they would all see the power of planning a raid thoroughly. "Here comes the blitz! Calrex, Heathcliff, intercept those minions!" For his part, Mack readied himself to spring into action to sweep the floor of the tiny, in comparative terms, spiders. 

Then they abruptly split into three groups to attack all the players instead of focusing solely on the tanks.

"Dammit," the ginger man spat, his mind quickly racing to improvise a new strategy on the fly. "Calrex, Heathcliff," Mack called above the din as Ariel disappeared under a swarm of the minions. "Move to help Group Charlie!" Both the tanks moved off in that direction, largely ignoring the small attacks from the spiderlings that were going after them. With narrowed storm grey eyes, Mack watched as Calrex missed and Heathcliff launched an attack that cleared four of the minions, one that was attacking him and three from Group Charlie's attackers. 

"@Takao, I'll finish off the spiders that are going after Group Charlie, I need you to help Bravo clear that swarm on Ariel!" Suiting action to orders, the red-headed Raid Leader launched himself into the middle of Zandra, Jomei, Hikoru, and Ebony, slamming his shoulder into one of the spiderlings as it reared back and launching the creature into space before it shattered into pixels. Deftly, his axe flashed out and finished off each of the remaining minions that was attacking the group. "Ebony, you know what to do. I need the rest of you to focus on getting that pile of minions off Ariel, unless Limbo drops back down in which case kill the boss. Our tanks can handle the spiderlings attacking Alpha for now... we've suffered a grand total of three HP in damage."
