Tonight is Episode 114 of Critical Role, a.k.a. The perceived finale of Vox Machina's campaign. After fighting Goliaths, Vampires, Dragons, and now a Lich-God, they will finally decide the fate of the Material Plane itself.
What do you think will happen tonight, Veeky Forums? Will they come in hot and fast, victorious over a pretender god? Will the pillars actually serve useful in battle or just pointless as past planning has shown? Will they finally taste the sweet sorrow of a TPK? All will be revealed this night on Critical Role!
The pillars will be 100% useless. Honestly, Grog should have been given the boots of spider climbing if he wanted to make use them. Percy with the boots of leaping would have been cooler anyway, like something straight out of a john woo film.
If they TPK, it'll have some massive effects on the setting. Like the Gods tearing down the divine gates to kick Vecna's shit in.

Already a thread up. Search the catalog next time,
Carter Lewis
To defeat Vecna they must lock him inside the Tome of Isolation. To do this they must: >Attach the Trammels (Strike or throw it into him after he has taken enough damage to cause open wounds). They only have THREE, and one is "weak" and may break >Activate the Tome >Read the ritual (Scanlan probably, Percy may also be able to) >Vecna must make a DC 10 + ([# of Trammels attached] x 5) Wisdom save against the ritual. His WIS is high as fuck. >If Vecna makes his save the ritual cannot be done again till the end of the caster's next turn, if he fails his save it is over
Tyler Robinson
i didn't realize how useless pike is gonna be this fight, she has basically no spells left. percy also used all of his grit on the previous fight. using those revivifies really fucked them, good design by matt
Michael Evans
pls god stop liking what I dont like
Cameron Ortiz
uh i guess we let the other thread die and talk in this one
Nathaniel Brown
i'm seeing Bladerunner tonight but it'll be way too late for me to catch the rebroadcast, can someone record it and post an unlisted Youtube link here?
Logan Price
Grog and Percy will be the last ones to die. Vecna will focus them down in this order: >Scanlan/Pike -> Keyleth -> Vex -> Vax -> Grog -> Percy
Levi Hill
Plus she will either be jager'ed or over Skype
Blake White
You guys have to watch this LOTR one off with matt, travis, laura, and paul if you havent
The funny thing is the founder is a pretty normal dude
Easton Turner
>keyleth doing anything >good end heh they better let vax die i swear to fuck
Jeremiah Powell
From a thematic standpoint, Vecna should focus down Vax last because if he's trying to really kill them, he should/would know that Vax will come back.
Robert Smith
This is a repost from crit role stats, and is outdated a bit due to not scaling with the characters levels.
But for those curious, the potential maximum damage output of each member of the cast.
Jace Taylor
I was "watching" it while alt+tabbed and god damn... I had no idea Travis had such a range, I could not recognize his voice
Justin Powell
It was a longer post but I gave up because everyone already knows at this point. that was supposed to be bad end

I seriously hope she's doesn't try to fight the Raven Queen, Vex won't come back even I still she somehow succeeds.
Joseph Harris
>Sam has another wonderful intro to lighten the mood I just love how Sam is an irl bard

Elijah Campbell
ashley is so beautiful
Daniel Johnson
Talesin, where has your sassy hair gone!?
Ayden Gray
It's nice to see they have kind of accepted the fact they might wipe
Michael Ward
Not like he has any enchanted guns to hit Vecna with. He's gonna be going after the death knights and other foes.
Henry Sanchez
>Critical Role urns to hold the ashes of your friends Never knew I need one, but I do.
Asher Fisher
>Dungeons & Dragons & Deadlifts Bless Travis.
Angel Fisher
He never uses Violent Shot, and this doesn't include him being able to reload as a bonus action, so in theory that number is higher.
David Gonzalez
animus is enchanted, but knowing his luck its gonna break immediately
Logan Perez
Jesus Taliesin looks 100x better with that haircut
Isaac Rogers
Yeah, he actually looks like a functioning adult like that
Logan Cooper
predictions >Matt starts playing too nice after outplaying them for 5 turns
Chase Gomez
I agree so much. His natural hair is still a mystery to me
Nolan Evans
TPK! TPK! TPK!
Seriously though, unless these guys suddenly became tactical geniuses, they're fucking screwed.
Isaiah Gutierrez
not really, all they really need is a lucky bad roll from Vecna
Kayden Hall
there going to be a
deus ex machina
that'll save them, probably Jamon
Christopher Ramirez
ol normal hair taliesin
Gabriel Wright
I think Taliesin is naturally a dark brown, he just likes to style it and dye it because he can. Dunno why he cut it for tonight, but he's done a mostly bald head before and was pretty successful with it I think.
Christian White
Wow so much better than purple
Hunter Adams
oh wow, they all look so much younger
Michael Reed
except Laura looks like a harpy
Joshua Martinez
Assuming it's just Vecna + some Death Knights, VM has like a 70/30 chance of victory. If it was Vecna + the Briarwoods their odds were 50/50 or lower.
Them blowing up the Briarwoods really did improve their odds a ton.
Landon Powell
Will Matt kill Trinket quickly or forget about him?
Asher Morales
Sam still has the bants.
Cooper Hill
>Pike being qt >Sam already being smart as fuck >Already Vex/Keyleth melodrama
Cant win them all
Brandon Stewart
No Joe?
Ethan Anderson
>guys newplayer here I keep dying to vecna what do I do >did you prebuff?
Benjamin Rogers
Shit thats clutch as fuck
Asher Garcia
>pike making a good tactical spell choice Dear lord, it's actually happening.
Ryan Watson
Quickly and in detail
Owen Turner
hes holding off the death knight behind them joe was great but there really shouldnt be a guest for this episode
Leo Bailey
>Holy Aura Damn, Ashley's been reading the spellbooks. That's gonna be clutch.
Camden Diaz
I'm guessing Sam's plan with keeping back the second Scanlan is that he can dismiss the Unseen Servant as a free action, that if things start going sideways he dismisses it and can send in the second one as a form of calvery.
William Wilson
Oh, shit, forgot about the Death Knight
William Carter
>TFW ashley reads her spells
Easton Martinez
someone needs to draw this new gigga nigga vecna
Lincoln Rivera
Oh shit he has the Hand.
Nicholas Smith
I kind of want them to fail, for no reason other than it would make the next campaign more interesting, as it takes place in this same world 20 years from now.
Zachary Watson
That's not how spells work.
He CAN use a bonus action to command it beyond the 60 foot maximum distance, which ends the spell though.
You can't just "dismiss" spells.
Luis Taylor
Fucking right?
Kevin Walker
>32 THOUSAND VIEWERS I never actually watched this show live before, but I've never, ever realized how much mainstream appeal this show had
You guys weren't kidding when you said people ate this show up
Tyler Bennett
>Vecna has his hand >Vecna has Vax/Vex's sister in his tummy
Aiden Rodriguez
Velora is the twins' half-sister I think.
Wyatt Brooks
Here's hoping he nabbed Tary, Kima, and Allura for shits and giggs.
Connor Cook
stop watching this trash and find a game of your own.
Andrew Evans
wait, Alora is their sister?? i thought they were only siblings
Jonathan Walker
>inb4 lair actions literally cast disintegrate
Luke Flores
>You can't watch a show, and actually play >You must play at this time slot exactly or lack a game
Christopher Gray
I think the strongest thing he was able to nab was Glimore, who is barely a level 13 Sorcerer.
I think Kima, Allura, and Tary are at least level 15.
Ethan Evans
>UNDERCITY THEME AW HELL NO, NIGGA, THAT FUCKING SONG GAVE ME NIGHTMARES WHEN I WAS YOUNGER
Brayden Jones
half sister
Landon Howard
But user I'm already in two games, one of which I DM.
Andrew Myers
>Finger of Death x5 Uh-oh
I get the sense that this is going to be super complicated with a ton of deus ex machina's
Travis' face: :D, I'm gonna wreck that ass SO HARD.
Charles Barnes
Is that Nagash????
Tyler Richardson
TFW you'll never have enough money and people that like your game to create a miniature like that. Allura, the mage, is a human and a friend not a relative. Velora is a little half-elf girl and the twins' sister.
Hunter Taylor
no, manfred
Tyler James
>Nagash kitbash for Vecna Awesome
Jace Sanders
Damn that Vecna mini.
Nolan Watson
Five charges to fire off a Finger of Death, the hand holds 8 charges total. It's basically a free Finger of Death for him to use.
> Grog at top of initiative order
Please buddy, wreck his ass.
Caleb Perry
Oohhhh that initative set is shit.
Henry Jenkins
it's a conversion from this, someone called it in twitch chat before matt brought it out
Mason Price
>They're actually upset that the cleric rolled last in initiative Fucking hell they really have no strategic mind, do they?
