like yes they’ll still be at the same table, but from the sneak peek clip we got of the seating arrangement it looks like laura is sitting between them.

Hi Critters! All is well, and thanks for your patience. Episode 26 and Episode 27 stats are live now, with Episode 28 stats following in the next few days. After that, we expect to be back on schedule.  

For now, check out our site for some fun Ep 26 and 27 details, including a list of all the questions asked of and by Tsul’rekshi.

Also live now are our Arc 1 table comparisons, which we’ve been very excited to share! These table comparisons cover all post-Overture, pre-Convergence episodes, i.e. episodes 5-25. Cold opens are included, excluding the flashbacks. 

Arc 1 Table Comparisons

To start with, let’s look at combat times per table. These shake out approximately as you’d expect: Soldiers spent the most time in combat, at slightly over six hours, while Schemers spent the least, at about four hours. Seekers fall in between, at 5.5 hours. 

During that combat, the PC knockouts fall predictably, with just 1 for the Schemers, 2 for the Seekers, and 3 for the Soldiers (all of which were Wick). 

The damage numbers, however, are more surprising. The Soldiers dealt 629 points of damage and took 281 points of damage. The Seekers, meanwhile, dealt 763 points of damage and took 278. (With strong damage dealers and a fight against over a dozen skeletons, they had a lot of opportunity.)  

This added up to 16 kills for the Soldiers and 27 for the Seekers. When it comes to HDYWTDTs, however, the Soldiers outshone the Seekers with 7 vs. 3, reflecting the greater number of true nemeses the Soldiers faced.  

The Schemers, meanwhile, dealt only 216 points of damage and took only 55, with a total of 7 kills and just one How Do You Want To Do This (Hal vs. a Crow Keeper in C4E022). 

When it comes to spell uses, however, the Schemers take the cake. The caster-heavy group totaled 131 spells. The top three spells used were Message, Guidance, and Identify. 

The Seekers used a total of 91 spells, chief among which were Guidance, Identify, Prestidigitation, Druidcraft, Find Familiar, and Fire Bolt. The Soldiers, including the esteemed Dr. Finger, had Disguise Self as their top spell cast, followed by Guidance, Shield, and Thaumaturgy, with a total of 98 spells cast. 

We also have stats on ability uses, which covers non-spell mechanics that fall under the ability/feature/feat umbrella. 

Rolling right along, let’s take a look at d20s. The Soldiers had 391 total rolls (counting only one roll in each instance of advantage/disadvantage), the Seekers had 363, and the Schemers had 294.  

The episodes with the highest numbers of d20 rolls—including DM rolls—were Episode 10 (151 rolls), Episode 14 (126 rolls), and Episode 17 (118 rolls). 

Calculated using the values announced by the players, the Soldiers averaged a 12.89 raw and a 16.2 total, the Seekers averaged a 12.10 raw and a 17.23 total, and the Schemers averaged a 13.91 raw and a 16.57 total. 

Brennan, meanwhile, rolled 387 times (again counting only one roll for advantage etc.)—143 times during Soldiers, 121 times during Seekers, and 123 times during Schemers.  

Going by his announced totals, i.e. discounting non-numerical results like “success,” “failure,” or “miss,” his best rolls came during the Seekers arc, with an average raw value of 10.68 and an average total value of 16.93.  Overall, his average raw roll was a 9.41, and his average roll total was a 15.22. 

Lastly, crits. The Soldiers and Seekers tied for most Nat 20s at a respectable 21. Our top Nat 20 rollers post-Overture were Occtis/Thimble (tie at 8 each), Azune (7), and Bolaire/Teor (tie at 6). 

The Schemers had the fewest Nat 20s and Nat 1s, with 15 and 7 respectively. 13 of that 15 came from just Azune and Bolaire!  

Meanwhile, the Seekers are setting a Nat 1 record (and it’s not even close) at 21. Our top three Nat 1 rollers were also all Seekers: Thaisha (7) and Julien/Occtis (tie at 6).
