[F17-PP] A fight fit for Heracles <<Herculean Labor>>

[Domarus 0]

Domarus could smack the player so hard he'd crash into a tree.  He could give the kid a lecture that would snap him out of this annoying state.  He could make the player strong for real.  Of course he'd have to actually care about the player's well being to some extent for that to happen.  And as far as he knew or cared, this seemed to be a one time event.  No long term investment other than show a good attitude and a strategic mindset when it came to battle.  Domarus noted that not only was the player blatantly lying to the two of them, and very poorly done at that (though it could be just that Domarus was a master, and thus to his eyes this was novice practice).  He also noted that the player was staying behind them, as if preparing for an ambush, or preparing the ambush himself.  However from what he got out of Adrian, albeit only a little bit, the player was more so being prepared for the worst.  Which was a good thing, but there was a difference between prepared and paranoid.  Hestia had chosen to take no action so he rolled his eyes under his helmet.  He'd need to resolve this himself and talk to him about Adrian.  He was guessing that what Adrian had talked about got to his head.  Before that could happen however, the bosses had appeared.  Or rather, not the boss but three lionesses.  Wonderful, a detail they failed to mention in their report.  Hestia activated howl while Pinball used an AoE attack.  Domarus waited for him to retreat before he took his turn, drawing his two handed ax as he activated charge.

His ax cleaved through the second lioness, dealing a critical hit on the it.  However the first and third lion leaped back just before the attack landed.  He noted that they were moving further and further away from the two dps players.  He narrowed his eyes at this and called out:
     "Epitetheíte apó píso kai travíxte tin pros emus!"  Rhozarth, the red dragon took off and almost vanished from sight.  When he reappeared, he was behind the evasive lioness and lashed out at her, rather violently too.  He breathed a heavy stream of fire onto one of them then latched onto the other with his claws, causing her to roar and leap into the air in pain.  The dragon used it's claws to scratch her in ways that would make her body react a certain way, while breathing fire at the other one on occasion, leading the lioness' back to the group and preventing her from escaping them.

I look towards the pack of three Lioness as two get smacked by Pinball, but not freezing them in place like i would have hoped as i nod my head at seeing that occur. Also, able to see that the AOE didn't do as much as i had hoped would happen considering the fact that you had taken quite a few buffs towards your attack in terms of consumables and other things. 'Guess i shouldn't be giving commands about builds at all if i don't know what weapons specialize in at all.' I think to myself with a nod making the mental note that spears are about singular focus, and that Domarus' axe is seemingly more focused about smacking multiple enemies with his weapon. I gaze back upwards towards the nemeon lioness and dodges just barely out of natural instinct as i then get scratched along my armor by the two other lioness' present as i see one on death's door, and the other finally having had some damage dealt towards it. Okay one dead practically, one near death, and the last still alive. I say softly to myself and then turns to Pinball. Pinball aim for the one with the most health! I quickly call out to give a sort of battle plan on the fly to make sure the coordination can be as smooth as possible.

[Pinball 1]

Watching Domarus spout stuff in some language he didn't recognize, and seeing the way he smacked the Nemeon Lioness' with an AoE like that, he felt inclined to try and 1-up the man - he didn't want to be thought down on. Seeing the low health of one of the monsters, he considered using an AoE - sure, he hadn't been lucky the first time around, but he could injure all of the monsters at once (probably), and he'd kill one of the monsters for sure, judging from the amount of damage he had done for the first time. He might even get freeze to proc in a burst of good luck. Hestia called out for him to focus on singular targeting, though, and Pinball nodded. "Alright! Zomekko!" From the jar tied to the belt on his waist came a black fog that surrounded his weapon, swirling around it in spirals. The entire weapon glowed purple, and Pinball shot forward, aiming for the Lioness that seemed the most well off... but underestimated the speed of the creatures. He slowed to a stop, surprised that they had distanced themselves from the players. Were they trying to lead him away from the tank? Pinball took a few cautious steps back, the shadowy mist around his weapon creeping up his arm and shoulder as the light of the Sword Art faded away. His feline, ghostly familiar sat on his shoulder now, analyzing its surroundings as if the sight was new to it.

Domarus watched as the fight continued.  Hestia chose to take an offensive attack rather than play support and lashed out at the monsters.  Some of them hit her, activating thorns, as well as received her strike.  It wasn't too much damage but at this point he wanted to move things along.  She gave an order to Pinball to focus his attack on the monster with the highest amount of health, which was the evasive third target.  However when he rushed at the monster and activated his sword art, the monster evaded him once more.  Domarus knew it was his turn.
     "Hestia, I'll need an energy boost after this attack.  Cardinal has worked against me ever since monsters fought individually rather than in a group."  He ran at his foes, Rhozarth still lashing out viciously at the lioness' to keep the monsters moving towards them.  One of them ended up running directly into Domarus, receiving the highest of his damage as a critical hit.  The second ducked just in time while the last one received a normal hit.  He watched his energy drop fast and grit his teeth at that.  At this point he needed a serious change in skill, preferably one that didn't drain all his energy without having been able to strike more than three targets in two wide swept attacks.

I see Pinball's attack miss as i just nod my head. It's alright Pin! Just continue focusing on bashing these guys over the head with your spear, or stabbing them a lot of times. Don't get discouraged! I call over as i then see Domarus' energy after he does his attack as i do a quick energize sending the yellow ball of energy towards the red headed player as i hear him to tell me to do so. I just chuckle softly and say in a semi-sarcastic and joking manner. I mean i was going to do that, but i think i am fine and will just go and heal Pinball for zero health. I say in amusement more so for myself being reminded of Moregenstern within the boss trying to tell me how to do my job as a healer. Myself able to see the HP and energy values quite clearly for all of my allies.

I look towards the three nemeon lionesses as they are quick to attack as the third misses me by just a inch as i back pedal away from the attack keeping my shield up. i then see the secodn rush towards me from my right side as i turn to meet the attack not even budging from my spot from the force of impact as i glare up at it and makes it continue its own momentum over me as i take some calming breathes not taking note of my HP dropping slightly. Lastly the final attacks before i can spot it as it swats me from behind smacking me away onto my stomach as i quickly get back up and gaze towards the three lionesses that once more come closer towards me like stalking beasts to a cornered prey.

[Pinball 1]

With a small, worried frown, Pinball looked between the two players. They were having trouble hitting these dodgy creatures; Pinball made a note to himself to consume an Accuracy bonus before they start their fight. Rolling his head and jogging in place, Pinball let out a pent-up breath. "Alright," he said softly, then ran forward, spear raised above his head, spinning. The blade started to glow as he activated Weeping Moon, the Nemeon Lioness' snarling, preparing themselves to dodge the attack... but Pinball stumbled. His boot caught up on a root, and Pinball tripped forward, just barely catching himself - but the spinning of his weapon threw him off balance. The spear's end hit the dirt with a thump, sending up a cloud of dust, and since Pinball's hand was essentially glued to the weapon, the momentum took him down with it. He started pushing himself to his feet. Why can't I hit any of these things?

Domarus chuckled aloud for Hestia, while rolling his eyes inwardly at the manner in which she said it.
     "No worries, I wasn't trying to tell you what to do.  Just keeping you informed of what I'm in need of.  It is important for a party to keep each other informed and up to date during combat.  You can never be too careful after all."  He watched as Pinball attacked all three of the mobs and missed each of them due to their evasive skills.  Well at least he was able to retain most of his energy during that attack Domarus thought.  It was now his turn to rush the monsters and ran towards them whilst activating his sword art.  The lions saw him coming and tried to evade.  He landed a hit on the second one...  And that was all.  The others had managed to evade his attack and once again he was left with near no energy.  D**n these chances!  D**n this absurd energy cost!  D**n the sword arts!  And D**n cardinal!  When he got this skill it was one of the most powerful and feared weapons.  Now with the change in the cardinal system, it was a joke.  All it did was exhaust his energy while his opponents were still halfway strong.  He swore there and then that if Cardinal didn't put it's act together he was going to break it with his bare hands.  However none of this seething rage showed.  He leaped backwards besides Hestia.
     "With the amount of energy I have I won't be able to use my strongest sword art when you give me more energy.  I have a grudge against the cardinal for this unfair bull but there's nothing I can do about it.  @Pinball!  If you can paralyze even one of them then I'll attempt an AoE!  If not I'll just focus on one target with what little energy I have left.  I won't be able to attack again afterwards without more energy."

I watch as the fight happens once more as Pinball misses as i wince a bit at that, and then see Domarus knock one out as i nod with a grin glad that at least had occurred as i quickly shoot Domarus another round of energy rather surprised that he has such a costly sword art when it comes down to it. 'That is going to be a pain within a boss fight. Hopefully there won't be any Adds then to cause such trouble like this.' I think to myself in terms of when the next boss fight could occur, and who will be joining. With my task done i quickly raise my shield in preparation for being pounced on and treated like some sort of lunch for these creatures. Myself ready to defend myself and my familiar stalking around the parameter of the creatures ready to pounce on them if it means he can redirect a attack away from hurting its owner.

I look over towards the now pack of two as they now seem much more on alert and seemingly going into a more defensive pattern as the two quickly lunges forward at once striking my armor on either side forcing me a few steps back from their combined force together as i then refocus on the situation as they get off of my shield and quickly go into retreat to wait for the perfect moment to strike me down.

[Pinball 1]

With a grumble, Pinball hopped in place. He heard Domarus shout out to him to try and paralyze even one of the monsters. "Paralyze?" Pinball strut forward with an exaggerated flair. "No, darling," he smirked, tossing him a wink, "we don't paralyze here." With that, Pinball burst forth with a loud laugh. He activated his only AoE, which, he now realized, was weak in comparison to the wicked axe wielder's. As soon as he missed the first one, he nearly canceled the attack - but he wanted to finish it just to be sure. When he felt that blast of frigid air, shards of ice dancing in the light, he took a deep breath, the frost stinging his nose. "Oh, thank god," he nearly yelled, hopping back. One of the Nemeon Lioness' were nearly entirely encased in a thin layer of ice. He looked to Domarus. "Keep it icy, mate. Think you can finish 'em off?"

Domarus rolled his eyes at the joke and wanted to knock him into a wall for that, but he kept his mouth shut.  He watched as the opponent was frozen solid, the first lioness leaping back and hissing at the move.  Domarus turned to Pinball, interested in how he got such a weapon..  Probably from that merchant.  It seemed luck would never be fortunate with Domarus.  He may have to take to get what he wanted.  He nodded to the boy and rushed at the monster, activating his sword art and ending it's existence quickly and efficiently.  He gestured to Rhozarth who tried to pin the remaining lioness down long enough for them to kill.  Domarus looked at them.  
     "I can use a weak sword art if you send me energy Hestia.  Either way we end this fight here and now if at all possible.  Pinball take the shot, see if you can get the final hit in!"  He was hoping to end this soon.  He needed the experience but he'd need to save up his col as well.  He needed to change his weapon skill from two handed battle ax to something that wouldn't prove more of a problem than anything else.  And quickly too.

I watch the events unfold form Pinball freezing the lioness as i grin rather happily at that fact, and the joke Pin had to go with as i chuckle a bit to myself taking that as him being back to normal and completely fine since it fits his personality rather well as i glance towards the last remaining lioness after Domarus had killed the other one. I observe it and nods my head able to see what is most likely going to happen as i use energize on Domarus by tapping him gently on his armor and then once more quickly being on the move again away from the two other players as the lioness chases me down still trying to kill me. The female lion jumping up into the air to pin me to the ground as my familiar comes flying into the female lion forcing her into the ground and then quickly taking flight once more to avoid a counter attack against his form. Kuro roaring loudly in pride of his accomplishment. You're up Pin! Kill this thing!

[Pinball 1]

Domarus' eye rolling only entertained the boy more. With a grin and a skip backward, he called out, "Aww, Domarus! Why the cold shoulder?" He whirled his spear, the shafted weapon hitting his shoulder with a thump. He waited, watching the monster as Hestia recovered some of the armored man's energy. You're up Pin! Kill this thing! He itched at his cheek, unsure. "Yeah," he said, noting the considerable energy loss between Domarus and himself, "I can try. We might just want to let it tap your armor and die if I can't, though." He lowered his spear into both his hands, and let out a small breath. "Here goes nothing, yeah?" Pinball rushed forward, activating Dimension Stampede. The air around him became cold; breathing stung the boy's nostrils. Four quick, heavy jabs depleted the Lioness' health, and it froze; but Pinball's attack wasn't finished. With one last, devastating jumping slam, the Lioness shattered into shards, leaving nothing but a patch of frozen grass where it once stood. Pinball spun around, flecks of ice dancing with the crystal polygonals of what once was a monster. He stepped forward with a wink, his boots crunching on chunks of ice. "Might wanna bend the knee. All hail the Ice King."

Only the sharpest eyes would have noticed the shadow in his helmet's eye slots darken when Pinball joked about bending a knee.  Whether it was a joke or not, Domarus didn't care.  HE would be the ultimate authority, and everyone would bow out of respect, fear or both.  This player was annoying him more and more, and now he just wanted to break his smug pride and face with swift action.  However he couldn't.  He was bound to his good reputation and thus would silently breath to calk his emotions enough to where he could act how he needed to be seen.  He'd release his wrath later where it wouldn't injure his reputation.  Domarus laughed at Pinball's comment.
     "Only in your dreams Ice Queen!"  he said in a seemingly joking manner.  Pinball would assume he was accepting the joke and was fun to fight alongside.  Hestia would know the truth of course but she wouldn't speak it.  Not to Pinball.  Soon enough he'd have her silenced for good, one way or the other.  Preferably by talking with Raven which he intended to do very, very soon.  He turned to the two of them.
     "Alright then, perhaps we should rest for a while.  From what I gather we all need energy, and I'd also like to re strategize.  I can't use AoE skills at this point because the cardinal system is working against me, and with their evasion it makes it useless to use.  So I'll be using a single attack sword art from this point on.  Pinball let's focus on the male first and handle the females second.  Sound good?"

I grin a bit at hearing Pinball's comment finding it funny that he managed to hit a sore spot unintentionally finding great amusement in that one singular fact as i then see Pin kill the last lioness as i sit down upon the ground to rest up on energy and gain some health back as i activate Field medic to do so since the natural healing will do the rest of the work. With the nice added bonus that the natural energy regain will bring me back up to full also. I gaze towards Domarus and Pinball. Well i wouldn't say that i will bend a knee to you Pin afterall you have to be comfortable enough giving out commands and leading players no matter who they are before you can try to tell us to bend a knee. I say sounding a bit amused with a grin on my face as i look toward she black haired player as i hear Domarus idea for what to do regarding the females. I think back to the fight and my health pool and nods my head not seeing an issue since they dropped it barely at all when it came down to it. Which leaves only the male one to be afraid of.  Also i'm fine with your strategy Domarus since i am certain that i can't die if you go with that one. Also if you are hating the AOE of the axe why not take up the practice of caring some accuracy consumables at all times. Pinball is a cook so you can order from him if need be. I tell the red headed player.

 

[Pinball 1]

Pinball was immediately uncomfortable, taking the soft punch in the shoulder with a nervous chuckle. He seemed to have reverted back to his shyness in an instant; something was bothering him, but he didn't know what. "Haha, yeahh..." he managed, slinging his spear back across his back. Pinball trudged over to a tree, leaned against it, and slid down into a sitting position, closing his eyes to rest. Hestia had a fair point, with her pointing out Pinball's obvious inability to take charge. "Oh!" he said suddenly, opening up his menu, tapping into his inventory. "I actually have some Accuracy buffs we can use." He scrolled through his items, materializing two small slices of cake in either hand. "Here, Domarus," he said, offering him one of the desserts. "That'll help us actually hit these things next time around." He thought for a moment as he ate his own; he was out of the cakes, but he figured the quest reward would be decent enough to pay for them. "My spear's specialty is singular focus," he began slowly, trying to add to Domarus' strategy. "I'll put out way more damage with it. The AoE is kinda just a secondary role. I can attack three times without getting completely pooped, but that's what we have Hest for." He wasn't sure how the information would help, but he hoped it would.

Domarus nodded as Hestia agreed with him.  The two of them despised, hated, and wanted to kill each other, but at least she could understand a good strategy when she heard one.  Then Pinball piped up, mentioning how he had some consumables for them.  Domarus turned to look at the boy as he opened up his inventory and pulled two items out.  He offered a treat to Domarus and he took the item, tapping on it to check it's stats:  Two accuracy?  Domarus realized that consumables could stack with his base items, meaning this would give him plus five accuracy.  He grinned under the mask as he recognized the sheer power this would grant him.  He nodded to Pinball.
      "Thank you very much my friend.  This will definitely help..  In many ways."  He took off his helmet for the first time around Pinball and began to eat the slice of cake while he talked about his sword art's specialty.  He nodded as he finished the item, putting the helmet back on.
     "I understand.  I'm fairly certain this boost will give me what I need for a fair fight against these creatures.  I'll go ahead and use the AoE attack method, though if that still fails I may resort to single attacks.  Specifically to avoid losing all my energy and all that."  He needed to find a player who could manufacture this quickly and easily.

I nod my head as i simply sit down upon the ground and waits calmly for the two to finish their interaction understanding what is going to be occurring for the combat fight against the actual enemy within this quest. That the male alpha lion will be getting attacked by Pinball only, and then Domarus attacking with an AOE. Sound idea in theory, but both seem to have some really bad luck when it comes to combat at the moment. I check my energy seeing at maximum energy, but checking Pinball, and Domarus' and seeing that they are at two thirds energy at the moment meaning they will have to wait a bit longer. So then Pin after we beat this quest is there another you would want to do, or just call it a day for you to go and relax? I know that the two we did could've maybe been enough for a singular day of work for yourself. I say towards the black haired player as i check the time out of curiosity seeing that it is past midday and slowly approaching the time one would have dinner.

[Pinball 1]

He grinned, throwing Domarus a thumbs up as he accepted the cake. I didn't even asked if he liked vanilla, Pinball thought dumbly. He started to let himself drift off again, his eyes pulling themselves shut... but Domarus' words made him grin, and he opened his eyes. "In many ways? You... you sound like a James Bond villain - like, just watching your evil plot unfold before it cuts back to the hero." He laughed to himself, then shrugged, "I... I thought it was funny." His eyes widened when Domarus removed his helmet, surprised. A shock of red-hair! Like Embers, he thought immediately, frowning. The girl didn't like him much. Probably because you called her a drunk, tried to egg her on to punch you, and insulted the people she was talking to... that's fair. His smile returned soon, and he leaned forward, his voice dripping with humor. "Wow, Domarus. What a hottie." 

Pinball turned to Hestia then, as he leaned into the tree, the hard bark only a little uncomfortable under his back. She asked him if he had any other plans after this, and he tilted his head, scratching his scalp, thinking. "Uhh," he thought, squinting his eyes. A moment of silence... then, suddenly and decidedly, said, "I'm probably going to go back to Floor 8 and pass out in my shop." Pinball dread the walk it would take to get there, but he knew he would love the rest. "Then maybe tomorrow I'll go searching for other quests to do. I don't want to fall behind, y'know?"

Hestia invited Pinball to do any other quests he needed to accomplish but not Domarus, which of course was expected.  He planned to do training one way or another of course, so it mattered little.  Perhaps he'd do a quest with just Pinball and convince him that he was a powerful, just, and noble hero/leader he was planning for people to see him as.  When he heard Pinball's comment and joke he chuckled and turned to him.
     "Ha ha ha!  No worries I got the joke.  More of thinking of the possibilities.  I was unaware that this consumable could stack with the permanent enhancements, so this will come in handy in quests, dungeons and boss raids once I reach that point.  Thank you very much for bringing this to my attention.  As I've said, it's helpful in multiple ways."  Of course he wouldn't tell him about his plans to use it against player killers, as well as his enemies in general.  At any rate he planned on taking on enemies with six points of accuracy thanks to precision.  All he'd need at that point is an item with absolute accuracy enhancement.  When Pinball called Domarus hot he laughed under the helmet.
     "Now that's a first.  I've been called many things from both enemies and allies and strangers, but never did anyone say a thing as that.  Keep being yourself Pinball.  Keep making others laugh."  Keep being naive and open wide for my plans.  Right into my hands.  When Pinball mentioned getting some quests done the next day Domarus nodded.
     "I'll probably work on some training after this, get some quests done later on as well."

I just calmly wait as i see that everybody is back up at full as i nod my head as i gaze around the field and do the rather natural thing just use a howl into the sky and hoping that something and everything comes towards me. Myself just grinning knowing that the quest mobs should appear within some time and probably rather soon considering the conditions for starting the quest have happened so the actual target shouldn't be that hard to find. At hearing Pinball's comment i just raise an eyebrow ever so slightly and then just chuckles figuring it is rather amusing at the very least gaining a smile on my face. Glad that there is someone who seems to be able to make jokes at any situation, and who knows might provide some stress relief on the frontlines with his ways of joking and such. Soon after Domarus responding to Pinball's joking a sound of heavy thuds can be heard and soon after three more lionesses appear, but also another version but this one more bulkier and stronger looking. I just nod my head as i see them glaring at me meaning the howl worked. And thus another round of fighting has begun. Here is to making sure i don't die. I say as i raise my shield ready for the inevitable beating i am about to take from these opponents.

I watch as the male lets out a loud roar seemingly increasing the strength of his other companions as i take a calming breathe and just raises my shield preparing myself through what i have a feeling is going to be utter torture. I look towards the three lionesses as they quickly charge forward and smashes into my shield one after the other in quick succession as i stumble back ever so slightly as they turn around and growl low and dangerously at me as i just grumble softly at seeing what is happening. Pinball no matter what focus the male! I say wanting to make sure that point is made knowing Domarus is going to use AOE so i know he is already using his strongest SA.
