kenseido informed me that Celeste is not in a grab, so I was allowed to change my action to attacking the other shadow clan that attacked Amethyst (I didn't make it clear in my post, but she is attacking the two who attacked her), reusing the same die roll that I got for the power check.

I've edited to make everything clearer, including the thing about the shadow blades.

Two are close range with Amethyst, one is 10 feet away from Moonlight and the last is 10 feet away from Nightbird.

Can Nightbird reach any of Amethyst's opponents?

Sure, but one is Staggered and the other was just attacked by Gelert.

Between bad rolls and my poor tactics (they should have been using Moveby Action and Stealth every round) this fight isn't even remotely challenging for you.

Quick question for the perception vs stealth rolls. Gelert rolled a 27 vs Shadow Clan #4's stealth of 29, so he can't target him. Can Gelert target the other shadow clan who all rolled lower than 27 on their stealth?

Yes, your character can target any Shadow Clan member your Perception roll beats.

D'oh, I normally note it in the OOC text, edited post to note Nature Strikes [earth descriptor] DC 27.

Incidentally, this makes me realize how weak redirect is. Amethyst has to fail 3 consecutive checks for the shadow clan to get their ideal result. Even though her opposing stats are pretty average for a hero of her PL, the chances of that happening are slim.

I think redirect is only worth it for heroes to use against villains, because getting 2 villains to shoot each other could conceivably lead to infighting in the ranks. Villains using it against heroes are less likely to get the same result.

Well it requires 2 checks to be failed. Given the PL difference, if you decide to spend an HP, it's extremely unlikely to happen.

I wasn't looking at mechanics. They have had little effect on any of the PCs they hit. This one is staggered so he can't do hit-n-run. He is Defense shifted, so it seemed like the best option. You might have a better chance hurting your teammate than they have been.

Gelert took to the air, or he would have been the target.

Okay, three 6's in a row eliminates all doubt about whether Dice Gods like messing with me.

Gelert has been fighting #4 and nobody is more obviously injured than anyone else.

Apologies, I incorrectly said Moonlight is up next.

Nightbird is up, followed by Moonlight.
