god I watched the attempted King Gus assassination again and it’s such an excellent combat, the set up and pay off of the player choices is insane,, Hal choosing to stay separate letting him break the other spell caster’s concentration just in time to put Gus’s druid back in play,, Bolaire and Azune both putting up See Invisibility as soon as they arrive on the scene letting them later take out the mage keeping the doors closed,, Azune carefully setting up the Magpie’s presence so they can be on the scene as soon as those doors open to immediately turn the numbers in their favour,, Hal disguising himself at the beginning so he could later try to help handle Filoneus without blowing up his spot with the Creed
and fucking every single thing Marisha did just a sick combat for her, by the end of the first round Murray was the only functioning ally in that room and completely outnumbered and she carefully held that invisibility like a champ,, helping Gus get his weapon, stopping 4 attacks with that shield glyph, only revealing herself once Gus and the druid were back in action, using her other portent roll to keep up the crown of madness Bolaire had cast,, plus the dastardly diabolical move of trying to use a portent on Yanessa’s death save revealing the whole plot in the only way Brennan hadn’t anticipated,,, this might be recency bias but it’s gotta be up there as one of the great crit role combats if only for Marisha, it’s a barn burner
