Gentlemen, I have to tell you some things:

First, we don't have to go back to the Xorn. We can later pop there to get the iron.
Second, buffed HD Viserys can likely carry all the corpses and teleport.
Third, Shrink Item.

While Buffed Viserys can carry all of them, only Lya has Shrink Item and she's currently not with us.

Pretty much better worded version of what I was trying to do, but I'd probably change the loot line item to the stone shape a bowl and carry it idea people are espousing

(In case the plan needs changes because Snowfire went to bed and soon so will I.)

Do we need to vote on the party makeup for the new (unplanned) leg of the PoE excursion? Or will the schedule work out regardless? Plus there's the Tyene/Dany mixup which we could go back on now.
 
How many days would we save from our journey by not going back to the Xorn right now? We can likely not delay things too much that way

I'm not sure. We'd have to ask DP about that when he wakes up.

I agree that what you're proposing probably saves us a lot more time, but we don't have the hard numbers to go off of yet.

Will you be awake tomorrow morning? I'm still travelling so I'll be busy

I'm looking for someone to delegate my vote to.

Also, by going to the Earth Genies we don't have to go to the Plane of Air, and that saves a lot of time

We could just add Tyene, but it's more of a choice of if she wants to attend the festival, or visit a stone genie city. Dany was scheduled for the PoA trip, but needed to teach Lya spells in the beginning of the month. But there is enough wiggle room to handwave it to occurring at some point when they're free.

I don't think anyone else is free to come to replace Tyene, though. *shrugs*
 
I think we also wanted to go to the plane of air for the griffon eggs. It should be much cheaper there instead of buying it in the plane of earth.
 
Hmmm... @Tomcost, could you clarify on your vision of how the looting should be done? I'm coming up with scenario after scenario, but I keep encountering problems.

1. Malarys or Dany prepare Plane Shift
2. HHD Viserys grabs the corpses and Plane Shifts back, leaves the corpses in our tower, and then they all Plane Shift to where they left.

Anyway, I'm going to bed. Good luck everyone

@Tomcost, that's the problem. Isn't planeshifting inaccurate to around 200 miles? Is it really safe to just planeshift right back?

If so then hell yes, that solves a big problem for us.

The problem is that we want to abuse Richard's Mindblank to maybe avoid the Sultan finding out where we went, I suppose you could have Viserys carry other loot to make room in the bag of holding.

I'm in the middle of crafting a proper looting plan.

I've been mulling over what Tomcost suggested. We really don't need to go back with to the Xorn home base. And we can even do it without delaying the Iron Shipment. All we gotta do is, when we planeshift back from Sorcerer's Deep to where the Shaitan captain is waiting for us, we send Tyene and a couple buffed Minotaurs to the Xorn to pick up all the iron. We can send a sending or two beforehand to Mountain Heart. Hell, we can even just bring Echo Caller with us to Prime Material then send him back home with Tyene. Our home plane was never a secret to the Xorn ever since Rock Shaker, and they've been pretty good about keeping it to themselves.

Anyway, writing the plan now.

They'd need someone with teleportation in case of Planeshift landing them far away from target.

Or in the sea. That'd be bad.

The default option has them making camp near the Xorn base and us going back home for the climax of the festivities.

I see no reason to alter that.

Alright, but at the very least let's planeshift home and back to drop off the corpses and the sacrifice turtles?
 
I'm confused as to what the plan is right now and can't really offer any commentary until you post precisely what it is you're trying to do here. It seems like you're moving around a lot of people who do not need to be moved around, but again, confusion.
 
[X] Escort the small company of Shaitans and their mysterious charge to the Opaline Vault, after completing your business with the Xorn (5 days journey)
-[X] If possible, Planeshift home and back with the aid of Dany and Malarys as to get the turtles and the forge fiends stashed. If not, just take the most impressive forgefiends that will fit in your bag.
-[X] Delay the festival as to better fit your schedule.

There, simple. Festival is already included as per the update itself, we will just show up for the climax.

-[X] More immediately, using HHD form, take all the Iron Giant corpses and have the entire party planeshifted (through Dany's reserved Planeshift) back to Sorcerer's Deep, and proceed to quickly store the corpses all in the anti-divination room
--[X] Have Alinor find someone to mount the most well-preserved Iron Giant, but it doesn't have to be right away, it can be later after we come back and either Malarys or Dany casts Make Whole on it
---[X] The corpses never leave the anti-divination room
-[X] Drop off the polymorphed sacrifices-to-be as well so you don't need to continue carrying them around
-[X] Inform Alinor of the slightly delayed festival and ask her to arrange smaller festivities to fill in the time until the actual festival starts in earnest
-[X] Planeshift back to the Shaitan (via Malarys' Planeshift) and continue on to the Xorn


This shouldn't take more than a few hours at most.

EDIT: Faceless'd.
