As the dust settles, the somewhat flattened corpse of a half-orc bard rises and begins to shuffle towards a distant mountain top.
Nice callback
"I ain't hear no bell"
Oml, NOW I remember that!
I listened to the podcast “Peak Performance” episode (part 3) 2 days after I watched this episode and wondered if I was the only one who had this realization.
Prudence is cursed with undeath, so she'll be back in two years. Dob will be a taxidermied zombie. It's gonna be an awkward reunion.
Prudence’s immortality is very much up in the air, as far as we know they could’ve killed the curse bearer
@adamire8310 I believe Johnny said they did not. That while it MIGHT not come back, he very much hinted that it was still alive and had gone back to where it had come from. If you remember during the fight, they said that it was older than religion when Egbert tried to do a paladin move. I very much doubt that that a bunch of level 8s, killed an ancient entity more powerful than liliana. He did say however that Prudences curse is up in the air as a result of *defeating* it
Dob will walk his corpse up a mountain and fall over again. His curse doesn't revive him, and the taxidermist is dead
Prudence didn't even die there unless the ground is magic and/or silvered
I would call this the most unexpected result possible, except that it didn't involve The Ancient Dragon Lansseax.
Just wait until next Christmas challenges…
38:16 "I place my hand gently over his heart, and cast Shatter!"
Damn, Dob.😂
Now I've got Egbert in my head singing "Unbreak My Heart"!
I would have gone with “don’t go breaking my heart.”
@@BlueGriffin20 Come to think of it, Shatter Me, by Lindsey Stirling /Lizzy Hale would have been good too. Amazing song!
I'm dying at how BG3 has implanted bonus action shoves into their heads
It's not even in the official rules. Shoving is very explicitly an attack action, not a bonus action.
@@globalincident694Some things Bg3 did is better than D&D 5e itself.
Some are quite silly.
@@globalincident694 not even an attack action, it replaces one attack on your turn. If you have more than one attack for an attack action, you can push a bunch of times.
Not to mention only rogues can dash as a bonus action lol
As far as I’m aware
My headcannon is that in honor of Merilwens cursed end, the sponsoring meatcompany has bought a new machine: Merilwens Meatgrinder
"Call that an Eldritch Blast? This is an Eldritch Blast!"
The lesson here is: never try to out-Eldritch Blast the Eldritch Blaster.
From the moment Johnny said that preestablished canon was fine, Egbert should have been charging around at 30mph
That's not canon though
He likes bombs, tie up one of their usual bad guys place a bomb on the ground, a shield on top of that, and then the victim on top of that. Run like Hell. Bom 'voyage.
Egbert could totally win this! Except for Mike's allergy to the D&D player's guide
Ya his aura hard counters two of them at least.
@@SirStanleytheStumbler Good thing his intel. and deity counter his OP powers. ;)
What's funny is he actually used his player's guide. And he still died.
@@rorybryant3282 Nah, he barely glanced at it, hence why he got his oath wrong. In fact, Mike doesn't even glance at what abilities he has, hence why he forgot he had moonbeam for, I think, close to a year or so.
In fact, I think he is the only player of the team that does not look at anything at all and just play it by ear.
@@cttommy73 He's really just a fighter at heart. The paladin stuff is just flair. He's playing Old School D&D.
This episode is an instant classic. What an ending!
We need to see this animated at "in Geth" speed. It would be pure chaos.
Memes of Corazon elbow dropping a half-dead Dob
38:10 Dob has really touched Egbert's heart. Such electricity!
"tubular pig-solid in a prison of wheat" is such a good callback
Gasp! Mike read the player's handbook
I know! That's the bit that cracked me up the most.
Poorly! Mike read the player's handbook poorly
He read the wrong page, but it's the effort that counts
Mike embodies Egbert's -1 wisdom so well 😂
Can't believe no-one remembered the lore of dob cause he technically won, cause when he dies he comes back alive as an undead and has to walk up a mountain to a destroyed cabin and also the fish inside him would still be legal. God dob lore is so random
OMG I forgot about this!!
Also would Corazon feather fall do enough damage on landing to even take 1 point of damage off.
Prudence also had many outs on her way down though must have been too shocked to work them out. x:x
I think the implication was Corazon did feather fall too early and so it wore off before he landed because he died too.@@nihkhdtigerson1599
Even feather fall lasts a minute. Technically Corazon wouldn’t even die. Heck with feather fall he also had plenty of time to drive his saber on the mountain side and hang on. I think they kinda wanted to go they all die route.
They kinda all forgot that Egbert got explodinated due to his bombs, and declared the ground to be explosive. 🧨
It's kinda sweet how hurt they were! I guess it's weird to play a wholesome dnd group for so long and then turn around and kill them.
*Immediately goes to the comments to see if anyone else points out that Merilwyn shouldn’t have been able to dash out of the Hunger of Hadar because bonus action dash is only a rogues thing*
Johnny let multiple non-rogues get away with dash as a bonus action in this game. Between that and the BG3 shove, bonus actions are a bit unhinged now.
But when have the Oxventurers ever cared about the rules, really? It's not what makes them entertaining (though my inner rules lawyer would be equally entertained by watching them have to abide by all the rules for once).
48:51 Jane's "The forbidden spell slot" at the end of this exchange deserved more recognition
"I wanna get this Fathomer off" made me do a full spit-take. I'm apparently still 13 years old.
Being able to summon a demon has to help- unless it's another duck i guess
She really could have used it at the end of the fight like specifically the giant duck
I was hoping that's what she was doing when she walked over to the fathomer's corpse, since she'd need freshly-killed-humanoid blood.
Merylwen was robbed.
I will die on this hill, this is my Roman Empire.
i mean i don't disagree but.. so was Egbert who was slept and didn't have a chance to defend himself on the way down, and in a way Corazon as well because feather fall when active negates fall damage. The thing with PvP in DnD is that everyone has cheesy and broken things that can make even The toughest enemy die in humiliating ways its part of the fun.
@voidstar6353 and to add on if they were falling more than a minute he'd have a reaction again to reactivate it on top of fall damage almost certainly killing Dob flat out so his racial bonus wouldn't kick in
She was robbed by her own self-sabotage.
Ha! I instantaneously knew Corazon would use feather fall! How did they not guess that?? Since when has he played not to his advantage hahaha
Mexico selects Egbert as its champion
Completely unrelated: I just watched Andy’s Senu clip and years later it is still one of my favourite bits on any of your channels. “I can see people!!?!”. He should play the part again in a one off oxventure episode. “Bayek, I’m freakin out!”
Any chance you remember which video of theirs that was from? I've been looking for days.
@@Advent04Children I saw it on “Show of the weekend: best bits of 2018”.
@@BadAtPickingUsernamesit's up there alongside That elevator bit
I'm very confused on why they decided that Corazon would die from the fall too. Feather Fall lasts for 1 minute and makes you fall at a speed of 60 ft per round, and each round is only 6 seconds. Johnny said the fall was only 80 ft, so Feather Fall would have still been active when Corazon reached the ground, and with lots of time to spare.
They all improved simply by playing Baulder's Gate 3, lol. I love this competition!
Alls fair in love and pork products 😂😂
0:54 tubular pig solid in a prison of wheat.
"Let's not make this an annual thing."
But what if you did?
As someone who’s seen the Critical Role Battle Royales, 1) ganging up on the Druid is 100% the correct move, and 2) Oxventure plays dirty and I love it! I expected nothing less than for them to cheese every rule they could get away with, and I was not disappointed! (Except that Prudence was clearly thinking about using a fallen teammate’s blood to summon a demon, but never got the chance. Moment of silence for that potential extra level of chaos that never was.)
I always have a great time, but am always reminded that Corazon is using a newer subclass than the rest, and he's multi-classed into rogue twice so... /shrug/ Still, love to see these dorks have fun :)
I understand that Egbert might ignore the wis-save proficency and aura of protection for gag reasons, but it's a shame Mike didn't remember aura of warding, that would have really helped him in the battle.
He could also lay hands on himself. I think they're level eight so that's a roll-free 40 hp he could restore in one turn.
I really thought Corazon was going to walk off the mountain with everyone, and say "then I cancel Minor/Major Illusion, and watch them fall to their deaths".
I like that the framing is just vague enough that, depending on how the final season goes, this could potentially be interpreted as the true ending of the Oxventurer's Guild.
Or Liliana daydreaming…
I just wanna say, you guys are great. I appreciate everyone so much! I found the main channels during lockdown and the content helped during a difficult time. I'd say your vibes in general made me want to come out of that period a better and kinder person. I think a lot of people didn't so thank you!
In regards to TTRPGs, I love the weirdo characters you've made! And seeing everyone grow as role players has been fun too. Mike went from someone who barely knew how to play one game to my favorite actor/player in another. Andy was a natural story teller running Deadlands and his characters are iconic. Also to everyone who DM'd, even one shots, I appreciate you because that's hard. It's hard enough for friends and I can't imagine how hard it is for tens of thousands of viewers. Freaking Luke even wrote a TTRPG, the hell? (I have the book, read it, and will play it one day. An F-Zero RPG with wrestling flavor is custom tailored to me.)
And I don't want to leave anyone out because the equation is perfect! Jane keeps the podcast going which I'm sure is a ton of work. She made a map! I know she'll kill it when she finds the right game for her to run. Ellen will be great too, she's been the catalyst for some of the best moments of each game and everyone just loves seeing her play. Excited to see her find her moment to tell a story as well. And Johnny? They're the reason we're all here! I knew any episode with Kasimir or Zombie Gold Rush Grandpa was gonna be great because they just play to the group and story so well. Loved their Dwarven and Tabaxi characters!
Just THANK YOU! For everything you do. You guys all deserve to be billionaire UA-camrs like Jane. I hope you find tons of success. I'll donate more when I can to help that goal.
Ellen DMed the tea time adventure one shot
I see this as Corazon’s win. Let’s be fair, even if he didn’t jump off with everyone, he was most likely to win. Because Dob was already in a bad way and prudence is kind of a glass cannon. Corazon also had loads of hit points left. Lots of defence with hiding and uncanny dodge and loads of attack with sneak attack.
"I'm in a hunger of Hadar being vampiricly touched"
I was honestly hoping prudence was going to summon a demon to catch her and fly her back up the mountain.
The ending of this was perfect lol. Absolutely perfect.
0:46 very original 🤪(I honestly love It)
1:40 that’s what the viewers demand ‼️‼️‼️
I get why they don't bother in most sessions, but surprised to see an all-combat episode without a battle map. Usually such a huge part of an extended crunchy D&D combat session is figuring out how to exploit the space properly: using cover, being in or out of range of certain attacks or AOE spells from or against multiple opponents, getting advantage from elevation, etc etc. I feel like in my group's protracted combats half the strategy is centered on the map and the environment.
They didn't really have any environment to work with. Corazon's "hiding" was him digging holes to hide.
Maybe they’ll start doing that after rerolling new characters.
Johnny couldn’t add sponsor air drops because Prudence would immediately claim victory otherwise. She’d be getting all the burn creams and tree spigots
Also that outro is so bad ass with the last lingering shot on Johnny as the guitar goes nuts! 🎉🎉
At the end: yeah, I figured Corazón was going to pull that.
Im pretty sure featherfall negates fall damage 100 percent
I'd have to say Corazon would've won even without the trick at the end. Still very healthy, Dob almost dead and Prudence with only eldritch blast (with a melee disadvantage) and no way to find hidden Corazon. And he did all of this without using grease.
Prudence did have a literal demon in her back pocket she could’ve used
Poor Johnny trying to control the chaos.
Can Ellen’s character dash as a bonus action? Also, I thought getting up was just movement cost?
Honestly, I’m pulling for Corazon or Prudence, so I’m grasping for ways to make them win. This is intense.
A wonderful battle royal. Only notes are only rouges can bonus action dash(some damage happened cause of this) & feather fall prevents fall damage. Even if it took longer then a minute to reach the bottom it could be cast again.
What an awesome episode
2:46 public scrying
I hope that the Oxventure does a Cyberpunk adventure one day. The dark future calls…
Yay the Golden Dragon lad has been bestowed the Crown of Rizz
If Corazon cast Feather Fall, which means he takes no fall damage for the duration, why did he take fall damage during the duration?
I thought prudence would've spiderclimbed in the end
Well, Egbert died both ways he would have wanted to go. Quietly in his sleep, and in a cool explosion.
Some guys get all the luck.
I wonder when Prudence will remember she's a werebear.
Slander! Prudence would never be the lawful good type of were. She has willed it out of canon. As far as you know.
Man, that ending may have been the most LEEEERRROOYYYYY JEENKIINNSS!!! thing in all of d&d, and it wasn't even a paladin who did it
My cheeks hurt from laughing too much xD
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't hoping for Prudence to summon a greater demon as a Hail Mary (or Hail Cthulhu)
The biggest reason Egbert lost was that his dice roll was especially terrible in this session. Man, he must have really not been feeling the battle all the way through.
And frankly, Corazon winning was kind of expected, since Andy is usually the one who actually takes the whole dnd thing seriously.
Surely Dob should’ve had to do a strength check to see if he could lift Egbert? He might be hench, but is he lift a sleeping Dragonborn hench?
Pork clog in a bread pipe.
That's the comment
If there's one lesson I learned the hard way from BG3, it's that you can't cast Featherfall while falling 😂
I knew exactly what Andy was doing as soon as he said lets jump off lmao
So sad Dob didn't Fus Ro Dah Egbert off the mountain 😅
I fully expected Prudence to cast banish on herself during the fall. If she did it close to the bottom, it might have canceled out her fall damage, and she would've survived.
I have five thousand imaginary dollars on Prudence taking the win!
oh man I was so excited to see Merilwen clean house ahahhahaha at some point Ellen you will be able to unleash all your druid skills!
665 Dagmar Trafficway
Corazon was just being a jack in the box
I call BS. There's no way Corazon could aim an elbow drop onto Dob from that height.
It doesn't particularly matter, per se, but have there been any hints as to _why_ there's a Battle Royale?
Why didn't Prudence and banish herself 😮😂
The beacon that is Corazon.

Does anyone know how to spell the thing merilwyn turned into, wanna see what they look like
Sully is coming up? Woo!
Prudence: I cast Banish on myself. Have fun killing each other, guys
It's out of character but tactically smart
Merilwen deserves a rematch. C'mon, let's all chant together: Ree-Match! Ree-Match! Ree-Match!
Skeleton hammer? Fingers crossed
I forgot but does Dob still have his skeleton hammer?
no way dob didnt get the win for outshystering the shyster
I thought reactions cant be cast on your own turn?
12:23
Poor Ellen. They really were ganging up on you. They must have considered you the biggest threat. 😼
I mean, Corazon attacked by a coin flip and then she turned down dobs alliance with him and Corazon and mauled him as a bear and then followed Corazon around lol. Its no big surprise that they fight back. Even Jane's first attack was just because they were next to each other and she wanted to hit two targets with eldritch blast.
Can Egbert really go for Merilwen that first round if he has to attack before moving?
This was good fun. :)
Welp...
Only way it could happen, tbh.
So, if the sponsors needed a winner, I suppose they could just Resurrect whomever (not spoiling) was left on top of the mountain?
Default! Default!
This is so rage inducing
We all know the only sensible thing to do is to wail on Egbert some more
3796 Kiehn Island
Egbert died the same way as general dreadbert
Wait a sec. Wasn’t Dob basically “killed outright”? So wouldn’t his Relentless Endurance actually NOT proc? So Corazon actually won and could’ve survived by grabbing onto a ledge or landing a ledge in the mountain as long as it is done within a minute. 🤔
I mean: If Egbert died from the first impact, why wouldn’t Dob be? 🤔
Further proof that the strongest character in ANY game is, of course, gravity.
My headcanon regarding the mace is that when everyone is revived, Egbert keeps tapping Merilwen with it for like 2 days until she goes back to wood elf.
he got her back to elf on hour 17 but the muscle memory took over & had to do it again
@zombiedoe3404 I fucking love this. Its now my own headcanon
“Does THIS make us nerds?!” When talking about Minis in a DND session!
A-ah, commercially available minis of their own characters- that makes them freaking winners as far as I'm aware:D
I just use a guitar pic. It's unique and fun!
Prudence: I pull out my book of making idioms real and say "man, I really knocked 'em dead"
I feel like Dob missed a golden opportunity to cast all of his spells at once on one of his closest friends, considering it's cannon that he can.
He was allowed to do it *ONCE*
still COUNTS...
i just had sex...
Dob: refuses to fight his friends
Egbert: refuses to fight his friends
Merilwen: refuses to fight her friends
Corazon: immediately hides
Prudence: 😈
Merilwen would commit some "true neutral" war crimes
Prudence sweep!
Merilwen would totally fight Corazon!
Oh wait you did say "friends"
