I had a feeling it was going to be one sided but didn’t think the dice gods would be so cruel Rust Monster: +3 to hit vs 13 AC 55% chance to hit (5.5x0.55)=3.02 Critical (4.5x0.05)=0.22 Imp has resistance Total DPR= 1.62 Seven rounds to kill Imp: +5 to hit vs 14 AC 60% chance to hit (5.5x0.60)=3.3 Critical (2.5x0.05)=0.12 Poison damage Rust Monster has 55% chance to succeed (10.5x0.45x0.60)=2.83 (5.25x0.55x0.60)=1.73 Total DPR=7.98 Four rounds to kill
The rust monster was doomed from the start anyway even if it landed all it's hits due to the imp's resistance. Having no resistance to poison, dealing only non-magical piercing damage and having to face off against an opponent that could hit it's AC 55% of the time for 11 damage on a hit w/success on save on average vs it's 50% and 3 damage/hit (w/resistance factored in) means the imp only needs to hit three times, to the Rust monster's four hits, and that's if the rust monster SUCCEEDS all it's saves. Imp's just a tier above the other monsters of this weight class for damage alone, not even factoring in it's damage resistance. I predict though that the Animated armor with it's Multiattack + high AC+ Stupid high HP is what's going to help win it this whole tournament.
The imp is such a low level powerhouse against anything not resistant or immune to its poison damage. In a roundabout way, you could say that the rust monster still had HP advantage, with 27 vs what is essentially 20 hit points for the imp, taking its resistance into account, but even that wasn’t enough was paired with the shear damage output from the sting attack. All things considered, animated armor is looking good for the finals, we’ll just have to see how it plays out!
Nooo! Rusty! The dream is dead ;;__;;... Alas Rusty is really only effective against people with metal... Imp will have no way it can defeat the horrifying animated armor as its poison damage will be negated! ... Alas its looking like the winner is clear now... But who knows!
It was the victim of truly awful rolls as well unfortunately… alas, perhaps the animated armor will be challenged by the needle blight and its ranged attack barrage! There’s still plenty to play for!
Whatever infernal pact the imp made to get this far won't help him against his next opponent. #teamstonechicken
Imp has opps 😂
kinda bummed that we didn't see an animated armor vs rust monster fight but hey, the imp's a cool monster
Will probably run it as an additional combat anyway to see what could have been!
I Imagine a Pit Fiend yelling from the stands: "LESSGOOOO! That's my minion!"
Holding a banner high enough to block the views of everyone behind it too 😂

It really didn’t have the best of fights…
