[Meta Thread] Pokerole Mystery Dungeon: Primal Shadows

[Dragonstrike]

Unless anyone wants to do something else on the current floor of the dungeon, we'll push on to the main Chapter boss in the next day or two.

A little question: When we reach the next room I will heal 1 more HP correct?

Yes.

For the rumble that is filling that tunnel: where is the discription of it first mentioned? Or can someone just tell me what's it's like? Because I need a jumping off point to brainstorm, and Exams and other stuff have fried my brain when it comes to being observant in the campaign atm...

The description of the rubble was mentioned when you first entered the room, right before Vilucard dropped from the ceiling.

'Small cave in' .....so a lot of small rumble that is blocking the whole pathway completely, a few BIG rocks that mostly obstruct the way, or some combination of the previous two?

It's a bit of a mixture, but there's enough big rocks that the obstacle is potentially clearable in a small amount of time.

Alrighty then! With all this in mind, here's my plan:

1. Get Dax to wetten/loosen the debree with some Bubbles/Water Gun. Less friction = easier time moving the stuff, and if Elemental Resistances and Weakness matter his Water Moves would be SE against the debree.
2. Get Marcus to use one of his tools/one of his Moves to get  bigger rocks a bit more loss/put more leverage on it.
3. Pyra and Kogeki (When he arrives) uses Buk Up (if it hasn't worn off yet), then they with Marcus/Dax attempt to remove the Big Rocks out of the way. If Karen has any telekinetic powers that can move stuff, this would be a great opportunity for her to chip in too.
4. Get Kee to crave and stable way through the spots were the Big Rocks were removed. If the tunnel is unstable, have either Karen or Pyra firm it up with Psychic Powers/Baking the Tunnel Dry (IF NO COAL IS IN IT!).
5. Every goes through tunnel/opening one at a time; Hoopa first, if he can open small portals from where it's at on the other side of the blockage for the group to hop on through.

What do you think of that, @PhantomUnderYourDesk, @Spiritmon, @no_one  ?

That's a good and decent plan that should work just fine! ... If we can affort to stay on the current floor for long enough to open that tunnel, follow it to reach the place/tile with the weird pink lights, examine them, return to where we are now and move on to the next floor. We've just ran into the first warning that we've been on the current floor for too long -

While the group is waiting for Kogeki, a light wind suddenly blows through the tunnels without warning, ruffling fur and catching the embers of flames.  (Kogeki feels it blow past him too as he travels through the corridor on his return trip)
Marcus seems to be momentarily startled by the wind.  He doesn't comment, but it definitely seems to have spooked him slightly.

- and while there are multiple warnings (forgot how many exactly in the canon MysterDungeon Games though) before we'll be thrown out of the Dungeon completely, I'm leaning more into letting the tunnel and pink lights be and moving on to the next floor now, leaving them for a potential exploration a different time if we can find them again. The Hidden Mine we're in now has its entry in a different Dungeon (Secret Quarry), and I rather not have to to traverse it all once again both for in- and outta-chara reasons if we can prevent it.

How, uh, does that sound? Agreeable, reasonable?

You want to move on to the next floor before the third instance of the wind showing up in the PMD games. You guys still have some leeway here.

Personally, I say we see how long/how difficult it is to unblock the tunnel first before we decide to Move On to Floor 2. If it doesn't take until the 2nd Wind, then send Kogeki and Hoopa through and have them quickly scout out the area (Quick Attack and Portals for the win!) and do whatever about that Pink Light. If it DOES take until the 2nd Wind, we probably won't have enough time to fool around, so we should just cut our loses and head downwards. How's that sound, @PhantomUnderYourDesk ?

Yes, that sounds like a fine and agreeable common ground! (^^)b
Feel free to voice or straight up play out the plan and follow the tunnel for now, given how I'll very likely be occupied with some things for the rest of today as well as tomorrow that I didn't get to during the last few days. Mostly creative stuff/projects.
