If necessary: "Full attack."
 You can roll for that yourself!  |

TML, would you mind reminding me exactly how spellfire is supposed to work?

TML, if the necromantic energy burst being charged were an SLA or spell, that might work, but I don't think this counts. You can only absorb spell levels, so I'm not sure this is part of that.

It's like a rod of absorption, but with relatively harsh limits... essentially, I'm betting on this being a targeted spell once it goes off.
Since I can only hold 6 spell levels worth of stuff, anything beyond that still has an effect (so I'd get hit with 24/30s of a level 30 spell). I think I also start glowing and taking backlash if I don't make a check every minute or something.
Given how powerful this looks, I'm probably going to do jack shit against it, take a metric ton of untyped damage and get knocked out for a couple weeks while I regenerate.

Well, I got bad news and horrible news.
The bad news is that A) this ain't targetted, it's a burst (as in going KA-FOOM; the buildup of energy suggests a mushroom cloud in the foreseeable future) and B) I originally figured it as a (Su) ability. However, that feels a lot like hosing your character as far as the second part is concerned (let's be honest, SLAs and spellcasting ability in monsters are less common than (Su) abilities). So while you won't do a whole lot against it, it's still going to beat doing nothing.
This, however, sets you up for the horrible news.
Sabot has just hurled himself at the mouth of a Gargantuan creature. A HUNGRY Gargantuan creature. And he looks plump 'n' juicy.
Chances are he might get trapped between its teeth (treating as a grapple). If the boys aren't expeditious about sending it to kingdom come, well... let's just say it's going to take a microscope to find Sabot's ashes.
If it's any comfort, at least he doesn't have a toothpick.

Luckily my powers will protect me, right? Right?
As long as it doesn't over 130 acid damage or have trollbane teeth or something, regeneration 1 and the energy immunity:fire buff I got means I'll be coming back... eventually.
Might have to wait for the next snowfall to re-coalesce from the ashes, though.

No trollbane teeth, but still... |

It occurs to Eren, upon flight, that Matsuko is fairly engrossed in her battle and it doesn't look like she'll be able to flee. "Screw Miss green nail polish. No one knows I came on this mission, I'll just turn into her and tell the guys back at base what an awesome job everyone did." |

What sort of check would it be to figure out if we should try to kill it before it explodes, or if we should just high-tail it outta there? >_>

If the Legendary Eagle can't carry everyone, Eren will use Dire Hawk. And this is why I wanted that sizing ring.  |

I'm not screwing you guys up based on the dice. It's fairly obvious to anyone with a brain that the skeleton is all but SCREAMING "DEATH THROES ROFL" to you all. |

Hey, Kuro, spellfire says it uses a readied action "like a rod of absorption". In the 3.0->3.5 update the rod no longer requires a readied action to use.
In light of that, a readied action to dimension door if absorption fails seems more sensible.
