Digimon Inheritance: A Heroic Lion's Turbulent Times (Finished)

Reader mode
So looking up the profile of Dokugamon, there's two things that stand out to me as worrying.

  1. It's a very high Speed digimon, and this update made constant note of the fact that we're the slowest of the group by a significant margin.
  2. One of its attacks fires webs and has a dub name of "Poison Thread". This means that getting stuck in the trap might inflict the rest of our group with Poison, and Verge is the one carrying around the cures for Poison. It would be very bad if we start fighting the boss by ourself and then the rest of the group arrives already poisoned.

A slashing motion with a drill should be good at cutting a web, but my biggest concern is the potential poison.

[x] There's a champion in there, not something you can handle by yourself. You'll try and help Flamemon and the others get free before continuing on, though you've never tried ripping apart things like this sticky web before.

Yeah, going to have to agree with the whole needing the group for this fight considering the stacks. As rushing it and leaving our muscle behind seems like a really quick way to just add to the problem here rather then solving it.

I got to go with the others on this. Sending the Weakest to free his friends without atleast a distraction sounds like a bad idea.
 
Right, let's see how the votes are turning out...

  • [X] Lunamon, Auger & Sparks are in danger. Who knows what that champion might be doing with them in its nefarious clutches. You can't waste any more time. Continue ahead by yourself and trust that Flamemon will get out of his bindings soon.

Whelp, we are about to go pull a Flamemon aren't we guys?

You guys do know we aren't anywhere near that kind of bullshit, right?

Even if we have no chance of winning one on one, we might at least delay the deaths of its captives long enough for the others to arrive.

That and Verge gets bigger stat boosts when he gets his shit pushed in :V

Do you really want to leave Lunamon, Auger and Sparks in it's grasp if it's as bad as claimed? also if we were pulling a 'Flamemon' we'd be doing it for purely heroic reasons, this is entirely personal.

Verge's a drillmole and this is underground, therefore he has an advantage on bleeding this fucker until the other three can get out of that web trap, fighting fair is for people on the same powerlevel :V.

That's true, I didn't even think of that. Verge can pop in and out of the cave from all sorts of angles. He has an almost perfect sphere of endless possible approach vectors.

Basically, cheat like hell.

What if all the walls and floors are covered with webs though? This is the den of a giant spider.

Then popping up out of the ground might get us stuck.

I don't think Dokugamon's been here for that long considering she was being actively tracked down, which means it's less likely that this is her den, she probably just laid down a few traps for pursuers.

Ok, an what if the others can't get to us fast enough or the webs are poisoned like some fear? In that case we kind of screw them by leaving them behind and pushing on.

Ok, while I have no issue trying to pull a hero move, I do have issue with trying such when we are both out gunned in power and build and when at best we can just buy time alone. Which more likely will see us putting the rest in danger from such a reckless charge by adding to their issues by needing to save us the only healer and guy with the poison cures.

As Verge can get captured in webs stupid easy here, since we are both slower and weaker then the speed based trapper champ we are going after.

I think we should get used to having to deal with things more powerful than us. Just because the enemy is stronger doesn't mean we should give up and act like things are hopeless. Like we've been saying, this is an environment where Verge would be at an advantage. He should use that advantage to make sure the kids are saved.

I not saying it is impossible and that we shouldn't try here, I'm saying it is foolish to go it alone against a stronger foe into a den it has picked it's self. As this thing is a giant spider and will likely have covered it's area in webbing, something we have little means to deal with or get through in a speedy manner.

So even if we could tunnel fast enough though the walls and ground here to mover around, all the spider has to do is shoot a single web shoot at where we come out or have been to block any paths we make. Then once we are moving around above ground we are easy pickings for the spider.

Plus, Verge is the tanky healer right now, him trying to do a stealth run or fight the boss without his party mates who are all the damage dealers just doesn't make sense to me if we want to make sure we save our siblings instead of making them watch us get worked over by the spider here. As there is almost nothing we can do to hurt this thing unless it gets really stupid.

Another thing to consider is that our kidnapped Digi-Pals are probably in a web. Why? Giant Spider.

Now where do spider webs tend be? Above ground. So unless Verge either gets ranged attacks or learns to jump good he ain't reaching em.
 
The vote is currently 6-8. In favour of rushing in.

Will close the vote in a couple hours. But in the meantime I'd like to pose a question to the thread at large.

Why would a champion bother kidnaping a trio of rookies?

Yeah, ain't no way he's not going after them immediately.

Good reasoning. I really dig this.

Flamemon can burn the webbing away easily, same with Impmon. And with the webbing gone shifting the boulders should be simple. They'll catch up.

Do remember this is the webbing of a champion (quite a lot of it at that) and it's actually filled with rocks as well. Not going to be quite as quickly as one might think.

good thinking Justinkal. Gramps did give Verge those containers (antidotes) for a good reason.

Indeed. Verge could distract it away from doing something nefarious. Also his massive AP and currently level of strength would actually allow him to harm low level champions.

This is also true. If it traps Verge properly there's not much he can do.

But funnily enough his hefty fluffiness would help against poison. Soaking it up before it can reach his skin.

Actually no. You can't classically eat other digimon because they disperse into data upon death barring very specific circumstances. Plus it wouldn't want to load them as the stat gains would be negligible.

Huh. Didn't really think about it but yeah, that's true, Verge's natural weapons are very powerful for a rookie, so when he actually uses them he hits above his weight class to a degree.

I mean, one grizzly answer would be "feed them special food until they digivolve, then kill and load them while they're vulnerable during the instant of metamorphosis for all the gain and none of the risk" but I suppose brainwashing or recruitment of some kind is also a possibility. There's just not enough information to really make a good guess right now I think.

I was thinking a spider sealing them away in a cocoon of silk (immobilizing them, but not actually killing them), waiting until its hungry, and then eating them whole.
