Episode notes
Plan Fallbacks And Evacuations First
- Do prepare fallback plans and contingencies before an assault, including evacuation and scuttling options for assets.
- The party debates using the ship as a weapon and evacuating crew while keeping pilots and key operators safe.
Disguises Work Briefly Against Vigilant Sites
- Stealth disguises and blending into enemy ranks can buy critical approach time but will fail under close inspection or magical scrutiny.
- The team dons Ruby Vanguard robes and uses a scribe ball to localize the key but are soon noticed.
Target Automaton Weak Points Immediately
- When encountering automated defenses, prioritize disabling control points or investigating cavities for power sources.
- Orym climbs the Mage Hunter Golem, inspects a hollow torso, and looks for switches to neutralize it.
