Day 1 Gannon Attacks

[38thDoE]

So we get one guaranteed kill and then have to chose between tying everyone up hitting people and exploring to fit in.

[mrt]

Exploring also gives us items and heals. I'd suggest that we all explore until we have 2 important targets. It builds our strength for later when we can be more discerning.

[38thDoE]

Also did I secure this right? I haven't made one of these in a while.

[matev]

Seems all right

[38thDoE]

Cool. I think I'm going to put together a triforce finding team. I can't wait for this to hilariously backfire. Its been a while since I've been mafia though so I'm probably rusty.

[matev]

Aura's got me on a squad. No idea who else we're working with though.

[wacriminal]

I'm Gohma. No special abilities that I can tell, seems my attack is only 1 HP as well.

Nobody has contacted me yet. Think I'm just gonna be an under-the-radar type this time around. Work's about to get crazy with the new iPhone launching.

As an aside, fuck Apple. :-P

[zh]

I'm Manhandla. 1 HP attack, standard link actions.

A++ forum design, btw

Agreed.

[38thDoE]

Thanks, I got a little over-involved with it. Was hoping people liked it instead of complaining that it looked like butts.

This is what I've gotten from Aura so far:

Ahoy, want to form an exploration team? You clearly need help finding the dungeons =P
AuralynxAuralynx 11:12AM
Yeah, I've been asking around about exploring since before the game started!

I'll ask you the same I've asked everyone else:

Lake Hyrule
Eastern Woods
Western Forest

Any preference?

At the rate we're going it'll end up being that we pick 2 to hit if people start answering in the affirmative.

The info I've got available, which is pretty limited, suggests that some people (Burnage / Obi / MrT / Locus would be my guess) want to try going deep early, which was my initial idea too, but now I'm thinking we're better off gang-raiding the early dungeons to increase the odds that key items come out quickly.
38thDoe38thDoe 11:19AM
Are you thinking key items are going to be dungeon specific? I guess that gives us more of a chance than random rolling of items, but how would we know they are in the earlier dungeons?
AuralynxAuralynx 11:22AM
The way I interpreted the OP was that there are a variety of 'em, so they're probably distributed throughout the various already-open dungeons and will help us get to the deeper ones or find secrets sooner if we can get our hands on them.

I'm guessing Austin has envisioned this as a bit of a progression-based game, which is going to be weird to try to grind through in a Phalla.
38thDoe38thDoe 11:23AM
Well but there are only three locked dungeons though.
AuralynxAuralynx 11:24AM
Yeah, I'm not just worried about finding access items.

"Dungeon Items - These items are used in dungeons only. When a player explores a dungeon, if they have any dungeon items, they will select one to take with them. Certain items provide secret rewards if used in the correct dungeon."

That's the other reason to fan out - we need to find those items to get the secret doodads too. Or at least we should try!
38thDoe38thDoe 11:31AM
Wouldn't fan out be hitting as many of the dungeons as possible? Once we find the secret we can funnel people through and all get it if its needed.
AuralynxAuralynx 11:36AM
I am counting on basically everyone in the village to realize that they ought to be going to a dungeon Day 1, since hit squad attempts are pretty likely to help the mafia.

We don't know how much stuff is in each dungeon, nor all the details of how exploring works, but I am betting it is more than one item per dungeon. Because there are some gated ones, we are better off clearing out the early ones so we don't find ourselves needing to backtrack. We do after all need all 8 pieces of the triforce.
38thDoe38thDoe 11:44AM
Unless the early ones have the secrets with items unlocked in the locked dungeons!

Also counting on cooperation from everyone is probably out of the question.
Alright I'll stop being obnoxious.
I'm waiting to hear back from a couple of people and I'll tell you where I am going at least.
AuralynxAuralynx 11:47AM
Yeah, I don't expect to know where everyone's going. I'm expecting at least a couple people to go to each dungeon.

Backtracks would just have to be the one guy with the correct thing, if we think we know what it is! That's way less wasteful than having to send like four people to find the Triforce piece!

But yeah, there's no rush, I'm just trying to ensure that at least one of those early dungeons gets dogpiled tonight so we can hopefully write it off.

[38thDoE]

Also who do you want to have killed tonight? We should start talking about it early I think. No one really stands out as organizing things in the thread atm.

[wacriminal]

ObiFett?

God knows he lived long enough in the last game.

[gruntsghosts]

I'm Digdogger, pretty much just a normal Link, 6HP/1ATK

[38thDoE]

I think we are all normal. So if we don't get weapon upgrades we really need to dodge the vote and waste the villages time. It would be great if we could end up being the members of our groups who go into spectacle rock. Get 4 Hearts and say oops well I failed, but it does say its really hard to beat gannon.

[38thDoE]

I posted temporary orders based on wacriminal's post, but feel free to change, I might not be around much between now and vote close. Make sure you all either hit someone or explore.

[wacriminal]

Any chance we can get admin'd so we can edit orders posts?

[38thDoE]

I was looking around but couldn't remember how to do that.

[gruntsghosts]

Shit, I'm sorry, MrT. I didn't expect the votes to be on you like that.

Oh, well. I've got a nice record started.

[38thDoE]

So premium is a vig.

Also do I have a terrible vote record now?

[matev]

Can't be worse than mine, I completely got distracted by Arena Rex and forgot to vote.

[38thDoE]

Well it could be I broke a tie away from mafia.
