5 Underrated Things or Tactics That May Aid Bell's Hells to Victory

Spoilers up to Campaign 3 Episode 116 below

Well Critters, it all comes down to this.

Vox Machina dismantled the Malleus Keep, killed Ozo (the Bozo) Kruft, and freed the Champion of Ravens which removed the tidal lock on Ruidus, and now the Mighty Nein have disintegrated the Weave Mind, completing essentially a full dismantling of the Kreviris Imperium, all of which quicker than I anticipated. All that's left is the Hallowed Cage, where Ludinus Da'leth and his inner circle are using his harness to try and fully destroy Liliana Temult. Bell's Hells begin a race against time to save her, but also a race to defeat Ludinus before he unleashes his intentions unto Exandria and its Pantheon with Predathos, and then decide for themselves what they do with the God Eater.

Suffice to say, and I dunno about everyone else but, I am terrified. I believe they can win but Ludinus is not to be underestimated, this second harness means he may be stronger - and he was already the strongest wizard alive - and have access to more powers compared to his simulacra, plus Predathos may come during or after this battle, which can put the Hells in a weakened state. Matt has likely prepared his best and worst for this final battle too, but the Hells aren't Lv. 20 combatants like the other groups; there's no 9th level spells, no Divine Intervention, and the group lost their cleric ~20 episodes back, so even though VM and the Nein were ultimately successful within 1-2 episodes having to use both of their auto-succeed Divine Interventions from their two clerics in the process, this is the battle. And with that is a ridiculous amount of tension for Ludinus and for what comes after. For all we know, the cast may've already recorded ahead enough to have finished the final fight, maybe even finished the campaign (though I hope not, partly because I don't want it to end yet but also I feel like the dawn of the new era should be explored regardless of what choice the Hells make, plus some characters could use a bit more resolution after the big fight and the pressure of stakes and time sensitivity have been alleviated) but for us it's a nervous wait, and a wonder of what can be done to win and what choice will be made to determine the future of Exandria, Ruidus, their faith and their people. So, this is my indulging into that first part, 5 lower-key things or tactics that might not have been initially thought of that could make things easier to defeat Ludinus.

Liliana, the Inner Circle, and the Arcane Battery Provided that the Hells make it in time to stop Liliana from being totally destroyed by the harness (which is very possible since Laudna does have that tracking spell on him since Aeor, it's all about speed and not running into enemies) she will still be without her magic to fight. Ludinus' inner circle holding her down is comprised of Reilorans but also other Ruidusborns, and that's something the Hells can expose. Liliana cannot fight, but Ruidusborns can take spell slots from each other, so Liliana and any KO'd Ruidusborns from the inner circle can be used as spell slot fuel for Imogen and Fearne. Ludinus also gave a 9-slot fully-charged Arcane Battery to the Hells in order to trigger Delilah within Laudna for his escape, the battery can help recharge Laudna's slots too which makes this tactic handy for the witches of the group.

Dunamancy One of Ludinus' most important tools for his plan has been Luxon Beacons, a device able to unravel even divine magic, but much like the Harness it can prove his undoing. Dunamancy hasn't been touched upon as much as early C3 hinted it could have, but for lack of a better phrase, the possibilities are still endless. The Hells have multiple Potions of Possibility at their disposal to aid with rolls, but they also were given a Sphere of Dunamantic Restoration by the Kryn, which will trigger the effects of a Short Rest and a health and spell slot recharge - which can be handy in a pinch and to reuse some once per short rest abilities. Ashton is the key factor though, I've mentioned it a few times already but we don't know if these items will behave differently with them, via their own internal dunamancy abilities. Given the unknown factor, that's why it's not deemed as much of a tactic as it is a Hail Mary, but it is one that could lead to Ludinus' own magic unraveling, and maybe even Predathos' too

The Whirling Dervish & Conditional Advantages In Vassalheim, Dorian received his family sword: Gambolcleft, the Vortex Blade. One of its yet to be used abilities involves a once a day repetitive use of striking an enemy, similar to how Ozo killed Vex, provided that they attack with Disadvantage. Dorian is already looking at a high attack roll given Gambolcleft's +3 to attack and hit rolls, and Master's Flourish means he doesn't have to use a Bardic Inspiration to stack a Blade Flourish (Defensive Flourish is probably best, the damage is also doubled by Gambolcleft), the only quibble is the disadvantage. Fortunately, most of the Hells have skills that can force Ludinus into conditions where attacks would do advantage on him: stunning and rendering him prone being most likely, but paralysis is possible if a Hold Person is successful. It would of course require his Legendary Resistances to be used up first, but if Ludinus gets stunned or knocked prone within Dorian's range, Gambolcleft could easily carve its way through him with continual hits, stacked potentially by Bless and Mark of the Messy End, for perpetual damage and make Dorian himself impossible to hit on his next turn. Stunning or Proning Ludinus also leaves Ludinus at the vicious mercy of the martial players, especially for conditions that auto-crit when hit.

The Hole (or the Bag of Holding) Occam's Razor. An old but gold tactic of the Hells could very easily be used against Ludinus too. The portable hole or the bag of holding are devoid of air, left in one long enough with it sealed would mean suffocation as have been the fate of many of the Hells' past opponents that they didn't have time to deal with. The Hole's downside is that a Strength check can lead to a creature forcing their way out, but the Hells do have plenty of skills that can impose disadvantage on Strength rolls and the aforementioned conditions could help that, Ashton's Hammer may also make it more difficult to unfold the Hole if its Immovable Rod is propped atop of it - but that'd be down to Matt's discretion. The Bag of Holding doesn't have the strength save, but it is smaller so it may not be able to fit him in it. I'm not sure if Ludinus can use Gate to escape either, dunno if that leads to the whole extradimensional rip thing that happens if you open one while in the other, but if he does it's a concentration spell so the Hells could just keep knocking him back from the other side, a bigger group of enemies in either also reduces the time needed before they suffocate.

The Harness and the One-Chance Polymorph Right now Ludinus is using a harness to destroy Liliana, comparing it to the one in Moleasmyr it'll potentially take about an hour to finish the process providing that this factor wasn't improved upon. However, removing magic within a being for a whole day only required a minute of contact in the Hells' one and maybe Ludinus', thus his creation and reason for long life and power can also be the key to his downfall. Holding Ludinus down for a minute is of course not as easy as it sounds but that's where Polymorph can come in. Polymorph lasts at most an hour, so as long as Ludinus is changed into a creature that can easily be restrained they can use the harness on it and remove Ludinus of his entire arsenal in order to finish him off without the risk of his high level spells. The tricky part is getting Polymorph to succeed; Wisdom is after all a Wizard's bread and butter, but there is a single gambit that could make it work. It requires all Legendary Resistances to be gone of course, and for Laudna and Braius to be conscious; Braius has a once per long rest ability to change a Wisdom saving throw to a Charisma one, which he used to allow Dorian to succeed in making the Dominox dance in the live show, Laudna's Void Puppet can force disadvantage on saves to those within 5ft of it, which will negate his magical resistance to just a clean roll. Orym can also use Hex to impose a disadvantage, which may be able to stack, but this would also hinge on Ludinus' charisma not being super high and if the Polymorph fails once it will likely not be able to be tried again.

The fight won't be easy, but there are avenues that can make it less dangerous, a strategy is very much required for such a foe. All the while my strategy remains keeping up the prayer circle. Deep breaths everyone.

#critical role #c3 spoilers #campaign 3 #bells hells #c3 #c3e116 #cr spoilers #cr speculation #ruidus #ludinus da'leth #liliana temult #cr meta #also reminder Imogen/Ashton need to plant that brood pit for the All Minds Burn somewhere on Ruidus #can you tell I'm panicked because I'm panicked I just want them all to be safe #VM and the Nein were successful and that's great but also it feels like they succeeded too well...Matt and his machinations are waiting #I'd love for Ludie to get the Zathuda treatment but he is likely the final boss if Predathos isn't so it's gotta be big and tense and such #and the after part is terrifying to me too because I do not think that thing should be let out - it can't stay on Ruidus either though #gods can quit being gods without Predathos as an excuse #Many gods helped in the VM and M9 fights too that should be acknowledged - the dynamic has to change but maybe not via death or exile #risking our own for them is not gonna work - Matron won't leave and new gods not on the menu like Artie will take their place if they die #I'd say they must see that but since they're all winging it we can only know in the decisive moment - it'll likely fall to Imogen's choice #I guess it's good storytelling that it can all go either way but it's very difficult to function when I'm picturing 100 different scenarios #you all are welcome to join me in the prayer circle #added notes: titan powers aren't on the list but I'm hoping to see more stuff because Matt did give them a piece of paper full of abilities #really hope the cast just quickly looked through their characters' skills items and abilities before the big upcoming fight #never know what will come in clutch

thinking about superheroes unfortunately

#random thoughts #let me daydream about batman in peace #love the dynamic between spiderman and deadpool #it's that kind of dynamic i love where two people have power over each other in different ways #like spiderman is a well-loved public figure and deadpool's idol while deadpool is a dangerous mercenary with regeneration powers #physically deadpool probably outmatches spiderman through sheer dogged perseverance #while in the public eye spiderman is more well-liked AND deadpool is feverishly obsessed with him #i'm gonna keep forgetting the hyphen between spider and man btw fuck the world #loving the idea of a spiderman who KNOWS deadpool can do better and believes in him while deadpool gives him a space where HE can be himsel #like spiderman has so many masks he has to put on around other people #i think deadpool should be one of the few people he can truly let himself loose around #yknow before he can get to a point where he can reveal he's peter parker #also i think peter parker in his ideal state suffers from severe identity and self confidence issues #like he thinks spiderman is a seperate persona he puts on which is superior to himself in every way #(okay seperate thought: DID spiderman. the spider bite being so traumatic it led to him creating a split personality to cope.)#(or separate. whatever.)#also age difference. peter should be in his mid-twenties while deadpool should be in his thirties. need more power imbalance #also they're both sa survivors and their personalities could be interpreted as them handling it in vastly different ways #with deadpool being hypersexual and spiderman being flirtatious yet distant and peter parker being borderline celibate #though honestly i could leave spiderman being an sa survivor given it was a whole 'gay people are all predators' psa #also i think spiderman should have been held back in high school. due to struggles relating to being spiderman #so he graduated late and now he's going to community college #peter parker has the luxury of going incognito. wade wilson will always be stared at no matter what he's wearing #deadpool who every superhero hates. spiderman who every superhero organization is trying to recruit desperately #also i think peter should admire wade. physically. built like a brick shithouse that one #also the third act low point CAN'T be about spiderman feeling guilty because deadpool kills people #okay? it's overdone. we've seen it. it's lame #i prefer when their opposing views on murder are treated in a more 'death penalty or no' way rather than assuming deadpool is always wrong #because spiderman's idyllic 'people can change' beliefs can be just as wrong as deadpool's 'assholes deserve to die' beliefs #and spiderman has definitely killed people are you kidding me. both accidentally and on purpose

Bumping up the smut scene bc realistically there’s no way Jace would be away from Porter for 6 months and not wanna jump his bones within a day or two of being reunited.

But jokes on him bc Porter has been so terrified to lose him again reformed that he’s like overly careful to the point of being attentive about asking Jace if he’s okay with doing anything again before they’ve even discussed the killing and rage star mind control of it all. And Jace vehemently would like to get his nut and not think about the past because they’re back by each other’s side; always a duo.

#I’m trying to figure out how get chapter 5 where it needs to go and I know it’ll be long enough to have to split into to #so instead of full focusing on that I’m thinking about chapter 7~#I need to rework 6 so the tension is more idk #it’s there but there should be more #also goddamn writing Porter is hard bc Jesus Christ he’s such a guy that doesn’t speak his mind and won’t acknowledge anything internally #outside of I feel good when I’m with or talking to Jace #I feel bad when Jace is upset with me #I like Jace a lot maybe there’s something deeper there and then he shuts down when he get to that point #admitting he likes Jace is the death knell for him #Porter would make Jace detect thoughts just for him to say I love you and that’s the hill I’ll die on #I also need Brennan to know that always a duo will never leave my head fr #‘always a duo’ ‘I tried’ ‘pretty strong pretty strong’ ‘I’m a big boy’#just Jaceporter thots #my fic #fic ramblings #starbreaker #jaceporter

“well since i listened to Death on the Stairs naturally i gotta listen to New Love Grows on Trees and if i listen to NLGOT i HAVE to listen to Gin&Milk which means i should probably listen to Shiver (demo) which will bring me BACK to NLGOT which'll take me to Deadwood and if I listen to Deadwood I also need to listen to Heartt of the Matter and and”

#average thought process in this 🧠#okay so indulge me:#'pls kill me / oh baby don't kill me' -> 'should i kill you like you asked me to (but i really don't want to)'#'are you still talking to all of those dead film stars' -> 'you won't really see me i live in old movies'#'we're in it together so I'll love you forever' -> 'bound together sometimes reluctantly'#'finding reasons to stay alive not to die at 25' -> 'if you're still alive when you're 25'#'are you still shaking out all of the deadwood from your bed love like you used to' -> deadwood #'holes in my soul in tatters' -> 'i am no stranger to the coals I carry them in my soul they scorch my flesh and leave great holes'#NLGOT is really the one that shoots off in 5 different directions #i mean the calvary / film stars thing also ties back to You're My Waterloo #time for bed i think...

now some people may not like to hear it but even the worst people who exist are still people & there is no human being who has More right than others to decide whether others deserve to live or die (does not mean i personally condemn murder in self defense or anything of the sort or killing fascists or whatever i'm just saying as a baseline This Is How it Is) & this is why the death penalty is not a good thing no matter how good & trustworthy the people in any government might be. people on average also deserve the chance to learn to do better. & no, someone who's been forcefed propaganda their entire life will not let go of that deeply entrenched mindset so easily, it's not particularly unrealistic & it absolutely sucks to deal with but in the context of tangibly working toward world peace it's also not an issue to try & help such people both in material ways & in helping them learn better rather than cut them down or abandon them to a grim fate. all this to say that's why i don't think garlemald is written badly, as unpleasant as the experience might be. walks off the stage

#ffposting #also if you hate garlemald's writing THIS much but like emet-selch i think theres a disconnect there i just dont understand.#like he made it that way. you do understand this is all because of him right. maybe you should be more upset about that.#garlemald is very uncomfortable & the real life parallels it draws make it a very very touchy Thing to deal with #but i do not think it is handled badly.#their supremacy is entirely gone by the time of edw the people there have known nothing but propaganda #the populares are known to be a minority. people like cid or jenomis aren't that common. this is why they get along #the propaganda is such that even occupied domans like asahi fell for it & feel absolutely nothing for their kin #thats what propaganda does. there is absolutely a degree of responsibility regarding what they do & i would never say otherwise #however the idea that we should let them die & not get a chance to rebuild after theyve lost everything (again) is like. huh.#when you want to work toward world peace in a meaningful way you cant just abandon anyone like that.#like thats a whole people. they suck! but it is not immutable & they deserve the opportunity to do better like any other #id much rather they face retribution for their actions in meaningful ways including working toward reparations #wrt all the peoples the empire occupied than to round them up to kill them or worse let them die to the telophoroi #OR to becoming blasphemies. that would make things so extremely worse.#i just dont understand how you can have sympathy for jullus when he was just like everyone else at first #but you want to leave the rest of them to die. & i dont get how you can like emet & want them to die.#like he fucking did this its a pretty notable very fucking bad thing that he did. no doubt varis has made it worse #but varis was in power for like 2 years at best.#that emet was playing a role & did not actually believe in or care about what he was doing does not erase that he did it #& i personally find it hypocritical to like him if you balk at the idea of garlemald restoration. clears throat #i believe in killing fascists but i also dont believe in punitive justice #& by the time of edw garlean civilians do not hold the systemic power they once mightve #which i think is also important. their entire country is in shambles.#if anything its the ideal opportunity for them all to start anew & learn better. shed their preconceptions as one might say #that said i still skip garlemald cutscenes bc i dont need cunts calling me a savage ✋-_-#do not take any of this for garlean apologia i fucking hate dealing with them on an individual level as a xaela player lmfao #but yeah. if you can feel pity for livia who is a military general WHO HAS ACTIVELY KILLED YOUR FRIENDS #but not for the civilians whove never been exposed to anything other than propaganda. idk man. 30 tags. fly free my post

see the reality is i post on my rps usually when nobodys been there a bit and nobody is probably online, but the mental illness in me keeps saying its bc everyone secretly hates me and i dont deserve love, and when i tell a gov doctor that, they basically just say ‘take your antidepressant’s and shut up’ which is also funny when said gov doctor wont refill my fucking antidepressants in the first place
