Oh I love that suggestion

I'm so bad at looking for equipment to buy! I'm also terrible about using consumables. I'm half-way through BG3 and I don't think I've used a potion or a scroll other than a handful of healing potions.

OK, what's our next destination? If I understand this right, it's going to prob. take us a few days to get to the next pillar if we go straight, or 10+ days if we go back to drop off the prisoner first. Wilder would prob. vote to go forwards. But also, if someone wants to go back first, I'm OK with that. I know it can suck in games if people worry too much about time when some players really want to take a rest or visit a place. I don't want the "urgency" of our narrative to keep anyone from accomplishing their desires.

Aside from that one Q, I'm not sure that Wilder has much to say. Personally, I'm happy to move on to the next pillar whenever folks are ready.

Do we have any way of discerning whether there's a way for us to designate ourselves as Cultists so the pillars recognize us as allies?

Wilder takes everything from the tree nook that looks like it might be of value. He'll also continue to detect magic to make sure he didn't leave anything behind. (Rolling to identify any magic items, too)

So can Wilder take 75 of those 76 arrows? 😁

"Righty now, way to pull, Boradur!" Wilder says before he launches another fireball into the midst of the Bilokos. (I studied the map and I should be able to hit all 4 of them. DC26 basic reflex save.) Edit: Oh darn, I rolled 8d8 instead of 8d6. I'll delete that and reroll. Well, I can't find a way to delete the original roll. So just pay attention to the one that's 8d6.

I forgot to mention that I was traveling these past few days. Sorry. Catching up.

you suggested asking a different question. How about this: Do the Bilokos have any special powers/attacks we might want to be aware of?
