Magic missiles ignore any concealment and defense under the control of the force field, and can hit any target 100%.
It bypassed the iron shield in the skeleton's hand and directly hit the skeleton warrior's body.
At this time, the skeleton warrior's scimitar arrived and struck straight at Zhao Xu.
Zhao Xu, who had just finished casting the spell, was already preparing to dodge.
However, the impact of the energy-condensed magic missile left endless aftermath, and the skeleton warrior's body suddenly came to a standstill, and then disappeared on the spot.
The arena fell into calm again, and the summoned objects that entered Arthur were all projections. After death, they turned into energy and dissipated, leaving no trace behind.
Zhao Xu wiped his cold sweat and secretly sighed that he was lucky.
At this time, he had already seen the contents of his character card information panel.
[The player casts the first-level arcane spell "Magic Missile"]
[The magic missile hits the skeleton warrior, causing 1D4+1=4+1=5 points of damage.]
[The skeleton warrior’s current HP is less than 0 and he died in battle.]
If it weren't for the fact that the summoned skeleton warrior's health value was lower than the average, and he happened to hit the maximum damage of 5 points from the magic missile.
Otherwise, whether he was hit just now was still a matter of uncertainty.
At this time, footsteps came from behind Zhao Xu, and it was Antinoya walking over.
She looked at Zhao Xu and asked, "Are you satisfied with your results?"
Zhao Xu just shook his head.
"It doesn't necessarily mean that you didn't do well. Let's summarize it first. Tell us what you think first?" Antinoya said.
At this time, Zhao Xu began to tell the information about the skeleton soldiers. From the HP estimate to the approximate attribute value, he basically told them everything accurately.
"Very good. The first step in a mage's battle is to prepare intelligence." Antinoya responded.
"Generally speaking, we mages need to know the enemy's intelligence before fighting so that we can prepare for them. As for novice mages, there are no prophecy spells to collect in the early stage. But this does not mean that we can give up this work. Arthur There are so many places to do intelligence gathering that aren't even blocked by mage spells. It's nice that you can take advantage of your players."
Zhao Xu smiled. There was no information about Skeleton Soldiers on the forum now. He relied on the memory of his previous life.
Fortunately, Antinoya can't log into their players' forum now, otherwise he will definitely be exposed.
"The second point is to prepare yourself after knowing the enemy's intelligence. A prepared mage attacks an unprepared mage. If the two are of the same level, the basic odds of winning are definitely 70 to 30."
Speaking of this, Antinoya looked directly into Zhao Xu's eyes.
"Can you tell me about the function of mage armor?"
Zhao Xu said it without even opening the character card panel.
"Can provide level 4 armor protection for defense."
"Where's the time?" Antinoya asked.
Zhao Xu was stunned and said, "One hour per caster level."
He immediately took a deep breath and said, "I should have cast this spell in advance after I teleported here."
The duration of this spell is too long compared to other spells.
Level 4 armor bonus can help him reduce the chance of hitting by 20%.
"Well, so you have to remember next time, as long as you can confirm that the battle is about to begin, you must seize every moment to use spells to bless yourself."
"Then please continue to talk about the considerations you made when you saw the skeleton warrior rushing over?" Antinoya continued to guide.
Zhao Xu had basically calmed down now, and he said slowly: "My first consideration is naturally to release the 'Mage Armor' spell, so that the probability of it hitting me will be reduced from 60% to 40%."
Although the actual battle environment is complicated, attack and defense still follow the rules of health.
The attack power plus the performance level of 1D20 (level 1-20), as long as it is greater than or equal to the defense level, can penetrate the defense and cause damage to the health value.
The skeleton soldier's attack power is only level 1, plus 1D20, it's only level 2-21.
There is only a 60% chance of breaking through his defense.
"It's just that for me, there is still a chance of being stabbed by a skeleton soldier, and its damage value may directly kill me. So I gave up the protective spell and wanted to kill him directly."
Zhao Xu's health value is 6hp, which is pitifully thin.
The damage of the Skeleton Soldier's sword is 1D6+1 (2-7 damage). As long as the D6 range is 5-6, it is just enough damage to make him fall to the ground and fall unconscious.
"My second consideration at the time was the 'Protection from Evil' spell, which allows me to gain a +2 deflection defense bonus against evil creatures and prevent me from being harmed by the natural weapons of summoned creatures. It is only carried by the skeleton warrior. The scimitar is ineffective, so the benefit from this spell is not as good as the 'Mage Armor', so I gave up."
"My third consideration at the time was the 'Colorful Jet'. However, the undead creature characteristics of the Skeleton Warrior made it completely immune to the special effects of this spell, so I had no choice but to give up. As for the transfiguration technique, mentor, you will definitely not agree with me. Switching positions is also not considered. The benefits of the Weakness Ray are not as good as the Mage Armor."
The colorful jet spell is actually a very cruel spell among low-level spells.
Whenever an opponent fails a Will save, a creature with 2 HD Hit Dice is stunned, blinded, and stunned for 2d4 rounds, then blinded and stunned for 1d4 rounds, and finally stunned for 1 round.
By the time the time is really up, basically all living things will be beaten to pieces.
The life of the skeleton warrior is 1D12, and the hit die of 1 HD does not exceed 2 HD.
It's just that its undead characteristics make it immune to special effects such as coma and shock.
This also made Zhao Xu embarrassed.
After listening to Zhao Xu's explanation, Antinoya nodded and said, "In the zero-level spell, striking the undead can cause 1D6 damage. Why don't you use it?"
Zhao Xu shook his head, "This spell requires a long-range contact attack, and it must first pass the opponent's defense level. The probability of hitting the opponent is only 35%. Not to mention, the expected damage of the magic missile is 3.5, which is actually not the same as attacking the undead. The expected damage is the same. Then I will definitely prefer to use magic missiles with 100% hit."
"Well, I'm finally not stupid enough to think that the opponent is an undead creature, so I just use rubbish spells like attacking the undead." Antinoya said with satisfaction.
"It's okay if you can directly react to this in a flash. Today's lesson is to let you know where the gap is in actual combat."
"From now on, you still have to be wary of undead, mud monsters, constructs, elements, and plants in the early stages. Think about how to deal with them when you encounter them. The elements are better among them, but the remaining four basic poor ghosts, what do you want? Nothing."
Zhao Xu nodded. Although the undead creatures had less health due to their lack of physique, their massive immunity could indeed give every mage a headache.
"Then, the second test begins. As long as you can hit me with a spell, you will be rewarded." Antinoya said with a smile.
