(Correct,  using a skill like perception, investigation, animal handling...during combat is considered an action.)

...@DM: The duergar that attacked has other flasks ready in sight?

 (Make a perception check at disadvantage due to the flames)

...

 Err... Just to avoid misunderstandings and retcons... I'll gladly make a Perception check, but only if this will not be considered Khessa's action (as a previous exchange between you and Katryl seemed to imply). With Khessa's action, during her turn, I'd wish to do something different than simply doing a check. So, well, since you asked for it I do the roll, but if this Perception should count as her action, just forget it and don't tell me anything. The cost would outweigh the benefit.

(OOC: In the meantime, in round 3, now Silas is up:

Initiative Order:
Katryl
Silas <-------------
Duergar A
B
C
Traydark
Ebzer
Khessa
Eldeth

)

Perception check at disadvantage due to the flames: 11

(No the check did not count as your turn. It is too hard to tell if the duergar has any more vials in his possession currently.)

Silas will follow the others into the room.  If he can see the duergar from his position, he will cast [Tooltip Not Found]

DC 13 WIS save else 6 necrotic damage

• Katryl (Insight unsuccessful if you moved to western wall, success if you're on the eastern wall)
• Silas
• A
• B
• C
• Traydark
• Alchemist
• Ebzer
• Khessa
• Eldeth

The other cultists remain silent and still as far as you know.

Traydark moves to follow those who entered the chamber to the left, stopping just before entering it.
(Don't think he has movement to reach much further.)

The alchemist pulls out a few more vials of reddish liquid, moves out of the corner a few feet and throws them towards the group, making the vials splash around the area!

(Everyone make a DEX save on their turn or take 4 fire damage and are afflicted with alchemist's fire. If you fail, you can make another DEX check on your turn, DC 10, to put out the flames before taking more fire damage. Traydark's familiar is excepted from this due to being too far away.)

- The alchemist should now be in range of most of the group btw

(Yes, my intent was Katryl would move to the western wall to have cover. I'm guessing the cover didn't help because it's an area effect thing?  Also, Eldeth is still another 30 ft back until her turn and she moves forward.  Ebzer probably too.  Do they also get hit?)  

(Katryl DEX Save: 24)

Khessa DEX Save: 9

 I had them both having moved 60 ft so far which would put them in range of the aoe.

(Eldeth: DEX Save: 10)

Silas DEX Save 4 (damage now or at start of next turn?)

Ebzer DEX Save 12 (adv due to barbarian stuff)

Ebzer charges the alchemist swinging his greataxe (Attack 20, damage 11)

Ebzer DEX Save 12 (adv due to barbarian stuff)

 You take initial damage, then roll the save on your next turn to put the fire out. A failure would incur another bout of fire damage.

Yes you can have advantage.

Khessa up

Khessa tries to put out the flames on her before they can cause serious burns, but in the meantime she moves close to the enemy, on the opposite side from Ebzer, in order to completely limit the vile alchemist's mobility: "Way to go Ebzer, let's cut him to pieces!"

(OOC: from now, if the enemy wants to get away, he should incur opportunity attacks from Khessa and Ebzer...and as long as he has Khessa and Ebzer nearby, he should have disadvantage when making ranged attacks)

Khessa DEX Save: 17

The blonde arcane warrior is too distracted by the fight to be able to put out the flames that continue to flow on the armor, sometimes seeping underneath, on the skin.

'A blanket...' thinks the tall adventuress, gritting her teeth to resist the pain 'I'd need a blanket to wrap myself up and suffocate the flames by stopping air from coming to them - so they'll go out'.

(OOC: @DM: Is there a blanket nearby?

Anyway in the meantime Eldeth is up in round 3, followed by Katryl for start of round 4

• Katryl
• Silas
• A
• B
• C
• Traydark
• Alchemist
• Ebzer
• Khessa
• Eldeth          <--------------

You can find some spare bedsheets))

(Eldeth DEX Save: 7 for putting out fire)

Eldeth continues forward, trying to put out the flame as she goes.  She has her crossbow ready to fire at the druegar if she has a target. (I'm assuming we can make the Save and take actions.  But if the Save is the action the ignore this.)

(Crossbow Attack: 16 Damage: 7)

(Crossbow Attack: 24 Damage: 7)

Katryl moves forward from her spot against the wall, moving quickly towards the location of the druegar.  (If she gets close she will Attack, otherwise she will Ready her Attack if the creature gets close enough.)

(Rapier Attack: 7 Damage: 5)

(Insightful Fighting - Insight: 14, 7 damage if successful and if Attack hits)
