Escaping from a God in it's own Domain isn't easy, even a Dead One.
I don't think he was literally summoned; he was probably called from his cabin to the bridge. If his job is to be a diviner and control the slaves he's probably here to stay.

Because for all we know we might trigger another Doom while we're in Valyria, and we're not going to survive that.
In this case I'm more concerned with survival and victory. The only loot I need is the corpse for a trophy and the Valyrian Steel spike they were after.If we use the Pathfinder version it's not as certain to work as the 3.5, but also unlikely to destroy any loot.Mage’s Disjunction – d20PFSRD

I agree. While capturing him would be a great boon...mostly to use him to summon the archmage and then kill/capture too. Right now Prioritizing maximum murder would be the best option.

On the bright side, the Efreeti Skyships are a lot less durable than the Efreeti Turtle Ships, so that part at least shouldn't be too difficult. Hopefully those things explode.

We could also try to Banish the Azura.
With a Wild Arcana'ed Miracle the odds don't look so bad.

The issue is, if such succeeds on the save, it is casting Time Stop (one we cannot dispel or otherwise counter because Spell-like ability). And then gets to run around unopposed for 1d4+1 turns. Summon Asuras, activate contingencies, call the mage, take a moment to appraise the attackers, move to an excellent position so that all its blades are poised to full-round murder one of our own mages..

@DragonParadox, how many Vayuphaks are there?
Yeah, I'd rather make sure it doesn't have its magic items.
So would opening with a wild arcana/miracle Energy ebb cast through surprise invisible ethereal Varys on the efreeti be worth it? Blackfire might also be a good option, maybe with celerity if we get close personally. If we could get multiple people close and Bork his fort saves at the same time we could tie him up long enough to smash the ships.
I'm not sure on how the stealth would work out in the ship, but if he ever goes up on the deck it'd get easier to jump him without triggering a ward inside the ship.
I'm a noob at high level combat, so I'm not sure if this is an efficient use of spells(or viable plan) or not. "Apply negative energy/fire until the problem goes away" is a tactic right?

He's not as dependant on them as most mortals on his level would be though.
Maybe go for full murderblendering. Use Avasculate or Stun Ray to guarantee a stun for one round and then let Richard and all available melees do their thing?
Though if one of the few items he has just happens to block stunning that would be bad of course...
Maybe combination with Lya, for Disjunction and stun?

Both are suboptimal here, because they take multiple rounds to achieve full effect.
We can't afford that.
If you want to drain, go straight for Energy Drain or let it be.

Stunning is a priority for sure. We need to get Ser Richard in his face the second we manage it.
Yeah. We focus on the Asurenda, while our less powerful vassals harass and delay the other five Efreeti Skyships. Balerion, for example, could easily wreck one or two all on his own.
That makes sense. I was thinking that forcing them to focus on not losing levels or con would be useful, especially given the potential number of levels lost; but I can see how the time trade off might not be worth it against people throwing around timestop

@DragonParadox, could we cast Spellbane and negate the Asurenda's Time Stop? That would help us a lot.

@DragonParadox, can this be an overnight vote, please?
What is the positioning of the ships, what are their rough dimensions, how many weapons are visible on each, and what kind of Warding is visible on them?
Does the ship with the Asura leader stand out in some way beyond having such a powerful occupant?

I'm so nervous. I hope the Cleric of Zagreus doesn't summon a Maenad Dragon or something.
You could yes
- Sure, I was considering that
- The ships are 120 ft long and 30 ft wide
- They each have 9 weapon ports on each side, they seem to be warded against teleportation just like the ones in the last raid, otherwise nothing fancy
- Not really no

Oh thank god. Without the Time Stop the Asurenda is still hellishly dangerous, but at least we won't be facing the certainty of multiple party deaths.

Just joined... Have gotten as far as 2901 in the quest so far... I am addicted, and at the same time hate you all because now I literally must go through another 10 000 or so plus whatever is added between now and then to satisfy my addiction! I am honestly afraid of how much of my hair i will rip out before i get there.. The Tiamat debacle, the doom ship... Deciding to sneak and make up an elaborate fake story for Mantarys and immediately killing the gate guard.. I have a feeling these are minor things compared to what I have to look forward to. Glad to be here. Thanks for an awesome quest DP!

Did they look into the visible cabins on the other ships?'
it's unlikely, but more archfiends are not impossible.

Yep. CR 20 monsters are no joke.
We're fighting them more and more these days.
Aspect of Mammon -- CR 21
Maharaja Rakshasa -- CR 20
Oblivion -- CR 20
Mythic Cornugon -- ~CR 20
And now an Asurenda.
I'm getting the feeling that the Planes are looking towards Prime Material and realizing it's now ready for a "higher form of war". We are so far behind in this arms race.
