You are supposed to roll with disadvantage, if you don't have any special ability to sense the poltergeist, like blindfighting or advantage for perception relying on smell or sound.
So technically, your two perception rolls are for your first attack. You still have second attack.
Edit: You can right click on the Perception skill, and from there you will have the option to choose disadvantage.
(Casting Bless on Beegred, Skameros, and himself.)
Probably too late, but someone else should get the Bless besides Beegred.
The only way he misses the Poltergeist is with a 1 on a d20. And with Lucky that gets another chance.
(I was a bit annoyed when the die roller gave me three "1"s out of ten die rolls. And it resulted in the miss for the Dread Ambusher, which does extra damage.)

There have been a few short-term issues over the last week, but notifications are okay at the moment.
Looking at Dreak's user profile, the account has been off-line for 3 days, and the last post made (in any thread) was 12 days ago. Hopefully just a little busy (vacation or school).

Well, hope it's just vacation. Since the Poltergeist is not in any danger of killing anyone, I'll just have Grithik dodge.
In my last 24 Perception rolls, I've gotten six "1"s and zero "20"s. I would be out-cussing that Poltergeist if my character didn't have the Lucky trait.

(Beegred is at 31 / 49 HP, so not urgent to get healing.)
"Are we done here? Should we look around for more spooks? What else do we have to do to exorcise the ghosts here? If we have to mark our territory, like the mastiffs do, then I should drink more water, to prepare."
I am assuming we just took care of Vazuk's poltergeist. If not, that's why I asked if there is more we should do.
Skameros reminded us that we (probably) know where Udhask's bones are. It is an already cleared area (unless something new moved in) I figured a quick run to get the bones, and then take the short rest at the same time the Warden answers our 2 questions.

As an aside, what did you think of rolling from your character sheets instead of doing the equations in the forum? Worth continuing, or return to in forum rolling?

Ok folks, I'm on vacation and away from technology for a week. I'll ping you all when I get back.
I'm back.

Noted. I'll wait for a response.
Howdy

Orubis is kind of terrible at this, for a cleric.

On vacation again, but at home. So I'll be posting at night for the next week.
Are the notifications borked again? Does Grithik know it's his turn?

Heh. :)
Anyone have anything to add, or want to do?
Wasn't there something else we had to do with both ghosts? Like leave jewelry or ... I forget.
I think there was cursed stuff maybe? Or treasure?

I don’t mind it, but it seems like an easy way to end up with a mistake or something.
