so I'll do it then

Warhorse
EB
Wulfgar
WeW
skullcleave

Horse charge for 15+10+10=35
skullcleave autocrit 40+10+10= 60
skullcleave extra att for crit= 20+10+10=40
wulfgar champ power= 20+10+10=40

175 in a single activation...

Then skullcleave activates-
mighty cleave for 40more and we'll say one other adjecent target (lg warhorse helps) for 15

230 in a single turn ain't shabby...

With the right set up you could probably get more with mighty cleave and if wulfgar's champ power allows copying the crit we have THEE winner...

I think this just edges out the mighty blademaster but I havn't done all the math yet. Anyone got anything else from AtG?

With AtG out now, looking at Epic bands (which is a totally different thing than the previous examples):

Enormous Carrion Crawler
Shifter Claw Adept

ECC makes target Helpless with Tentacle Slap
Shifter Claw Adept uses Claw Frenzy for auto crits... pick the number as you keep making attacks until you miss and you can't miss when the target is helpless. And all attacks are also automatic crits.

2 activations for 234 points... but unlimited damage.

shifter claw adept is a whole new beast... There are a lot of ways to get big returns from the guy but he's pretty durn good as is (killed a full hp dragonborn defender who still had unbreakable in a single round- that was a game breaker). I would not be surprised to see an errata on either him or the helpless condition (limit to 4 rolls perhaps or helpless ends when takes dmg- like sleep. But I would just prefer a cap on att's).

Ha, was just reading this thread wondering why no one posted the Gelatinous Cube/Enormous Carrion Crawler + Skeletal Tomb Guardian/Razorclaw shifter combo for the ultimate in damage to a helpless opponent....love that combo. Really hope they don't errata the helpless condition just because a new piece has unlimited attacks. I've enjoyed dishing out 200 points of damage with my STG's Cascade of Steel for a while now here in Berlin. I actually recommend that over the Razorclaw shifter...only because the STG can do it every round against a different enemy while the Shifter is limited to picking his target more carefully. And, to be honest, if 200 damage doesn't kill it, you've got bigger problems.

My gimmick warband for next week now that we're actually playing non-sealed:

E.Carrion Crawler
Skeleton Tomb Guardian x2
Gelatinous Cubes x2
...and 104 points to be more creative with Underdark filler/fodder. I suppose you could fit in more Razorclaws (sans STG) and move this to the Wild Faction, but as I don't have that many Razorclaws, I'll stick to my scary undead guns.

Most Damage in 2 acts?

2x Skullcleave Warrors
1X EB
1x Wulfgar

Both Skullcleaves with hate

1) first Skullcleave  attacks target with great cleave, there are 8 identical Enemy creatures adjacent to target

Uses Great Cleave. Gets a crit. Does 30x2 +10 (70) Damage to target. Gets a free attack on another creature from the crit, does 20+ 10 (30) Does 15 +10 Damage to the other 8 identical creatures adjacent to target  from Great Cleaves effect (25x8= 200)

Total so far= 70+30+200= 300 Dmg

Moves back, takes an aoo, Becomes Bloodied, gets free attack from Wulfegar Scores a crit on on creature 20x2+10 (50) Gets a free attack against another creature, does another 20+10= (30)

Total 80+ 300 running total= 380

Second Act

Second Skullcleave warrrior moves into space vacated by first, Take an aoo on route, becomes bloodied. Gets attack from Wulf. Scores a crit 20x2+10 (50) Gets a free attack against another creature, does another 20+10= (30)

Total 70+ 380 running total= 450

Then attacks original target in middle

Uses Great Cleave. Gets a crit. Does 30x2 +10 (70) Damage to target. Gets a free attack on another creature from the crit, does 20+ 10 (30) Does 15 +10 Damage to the other 8 identical creatures adjacent to target  from Great Cleaves effect (25x8= 200)

300+ 460= 760 Damage in 2 acts



That should serve as a base. I'm sure more is possible

I could get utterly sad, and assume that upon the second skullcleavers activation it kills some of the creatures, which then deathburst (assume lady vol). These deathbursts kill  the  6 allied Guards of Mithral Hall arranged around the outside, which then all grant free attacks to the skullcleave warrios, which then score crits with every free attack getting secondary bonus attacks...


I win

Either we are running out of viable combos or people are getting bored...

Originally this was to be more of an informational thread rather than a theoretical one. I was hoping to see more realistic situations (rather then there happening to be 8 of the same type of creature huddled together.

Yes the shifter theoretically still wins. Unfortunately I think everyone is aware of this potential now. I hope they cap him to 4 att's.

Ah, don't let one silly example taint a good idea. My submission is a little silly too, but at least it's one that I've done in dozens of game over the past few months (usually with cubes but now once with the E.C. Crawler, an abbreviation that totally sounds like a designer shoe brand).

On the topic of the Skullcleave, I keep mentioning that teaming him with Champions and pieces that enhance criticals would be golden. Problem is I'm not sure exactly who that means completely. I know that by teaming him with a Young Red Dragon lets you do an extra 20 for the critical, but are there other pieces that stack damage when you roll a critical besides the Dragon?

Shifter doesn't need a cap really...he has his problems but he's got some damn good potential. At least in an open meta. But some stuff can kick the crap out of him. That attack he has totally destroys low AC hitters.

not too worried about him bit it makes the game a lot more swingy and makes luck more important than skill. In some instances that is ok; here, in a meta where helpless shows up suddenly, it isn't fun to have a single roll (the helpless att) dictate a game.

He has potential. I'm building around multiples of him a lot.

Don't worry, this thread has a lot of fun left in. Just a friendly reminder that the more obscure we go the less useful it is.

 Well, they can only attack one creature eack, so the maximum one could do would be 250 odd (whatever the hp of the new HRD is)

(Lord Rock) I'll get the two biggest out of the way to show you how to play the game.

Slightly condecending? I just wanted to prove you wrong :p

(oh god rats) Ah, don't let one silly example taint a good idea.

It was a silly example, however most of the examples posted so far are silly and unlikely. We clearly draw a line somewhere, and practically anything past horse wulfregar/wwc combos is pretty unlikely. The Shifter Claw Adept bands are one trick conditional ponies, and would get trounced by lots of things.

For more "practical" examples you could have

EB Buffed Blademaster x2, very reliable way to do 160 (both using the sweeping attack vs 2 different creatures each)

EB Buffed Cleric of Orcus x2. Censer whirl does 30 against everything based

Besides, the theoretical maximum damage in 2 activations I can get to (which is actually possible), assuming ideal conditions is 5090.

So what? None of this is actually practicial. Theoretically the shifterclaw does more damage than anything. At the very least he does the most damage to one single target...

a little "call to arms" was a good way to get things going. I was really just trying to get those 2 out of the way to get people going elsewhere. I was hoping someone would come up with more stuff out of atg but skullcleave shifter and blademaster seem to be about it... Sad.
