Go To

Episode 04: Marp

  • Little One defeating an orc in single combat.

Episode 15: One Point Five

  • Black successfully negotiating a bargain with the raj Lord Kintemazu in the middle of a battle with him.
    • By Word of God, this was a huge turning point. Had Black not succeeded in brokering this deal, Lord Kintemazu would have used his powers to kill 1.5 members of the party, and the remaining 2.5 members would suffer the wrath of an angry Reality Warper. As it is, they managed to secure a potent ally.

Episode 26: Morduval

  • The battle against Morduval, Lieutenant of Swayne. Highlights include Lady Hazamura pulling a Big Damn Heroes to suppress the magic runes protecting him, making him something resembling hitable, and Angel managing to kill him after he downs the rest of the party, which is depicted as a Single-Stroke Battle.

Episode 33: Blacklash

  • In the Northern Terminus battle, one of the Orcs scores a critical hit on Black, triggering all of his backlash spells and items. In fact, Black's abilities collectively deal so much backlash damage that the Orc actually dies from it. Then a second Orc scores another huge hit, again triggering Black's numerous backlash damage spells and hurting herself nearly as badly as she'd hurt him. So Black has killed one Orc and badly hurt a second, but is himself on the brink of death. Then he casts Heal. In a single flash of magic, all that damage is negated. The Orc runs away very quickly after that.
    • In fact, that proved to be so utterly terrifying for the Orc (named Liz), that she believes him to be an avatar of the god Sirius, and is intimidated into joining the party. Talk about impressive.

Episode 40: The Age of Epsilon

  • The final battle in Polaron: the party vs the Strategic Withdrawal Unit / Dark Ancient Epsilon. In a massive portal room over thirty stories underground, with lava walls.

Episode 43: Surprise Guest

  • The party (sans Angel and Mora) fight a Monitor and succeed in killing it.

Episode 50: Him

  • Swayne, the vampire king that kidnapped Zaheer and was responsible for a lot of the nasty things the party had been dealing with for the last several episodes and more, finally appears in person. He does not fail to live up to the hype.

Episode 56

  • The entire episode, a massive battle between the party against both an army of zombies and Baron Deathmoor to prevent him from becoming immortal.
    • Entering the shack containing the Baron and the spring.
    Angel: "Are you immortal yet?" I tumble past [the tank zombie guard] and ready my action for flanking.
    Baron Deathmoor: "Wha- Who sent you?! Swayne?! Alissa?!"
    Black: "Rygax." (Knight's Moves next to the Baron, revealing behind him...)
    Rygax: "Eldritch Blast!"
    • "CONE OF CREMATION!" A massive 500-foot cone of hellfire that only just barely manages to fall short of hitting Little One... who is on the far opposite side of an entire zombie army from the Baron.
    • Like with Mordeval, Angel's the MVP of the battle, her relentless pursuit of the Baron driving him to eventually age himself to death with a last-ditch Cone of Cremation which she not only evades, but manages to grab his arm to redirect it to take out the remaining parts of the zombie army most threatening Little One and Black's front.

Episode 62: The Final Challenge?

  • The final battle of the Albtraum arc features the party taking on two (recreations of) Monitors, one after the other: Deathfin Zukono, Haya-sa's Impatience, the Monitor who killed Angel's mentor and is STUPID fast with an undispellable 3rd edition Haste (which gives an extra standard action that he uses to great effect); and Deathfin Vazilai, Scroll of Heavenly Grasp, the Monitor who killed Little One's mother and who can think up portals to punch you from across the room. The resulting battles are epic, with party members frequently getting dropped and getting back up again.

Others

  • According to legend, the Smith killed a Monitor and survived.
  • The party's retrieval of the three Spoons of Plenty, artifact-level Sustaining Spoons. Where a regular Sustaining Spoon makes enough bland (but nutritious) gruel to feed six people each day, the Spoons of Plenty can be used a theoretically infinite number of times each day, limited only by the amount of time physically required to activate the things for each bowl. In Episode 18, the heroes finally deliver the spoons to the government of Vistria. By Episode Twenty, the spoons are in full swing, lifting twenty-five thousand Verandian refugees from borderline starvation.
