Last time on no latency. I'm addicted to hardcore drugs. I'm better now. VV right now. I'm sorry, I'm very flustered right now. I have a lot going on. Retro's going to record that whole thing. What do you say Auto fire? Well, that ain't bad, yeah. Watch out, Iona's going to skeet, skeet you. Anyone else want some skeeting? Let's just put this guy down. I can't wait till we're done with them on. Purpose. You did it almost as good as Domino. Yeah, that's right. It was on purpose.
And don't can do that one more time. Wow, every. Once in a while I I do think to myself. Well, don't think about humanity. Not to these guys. Think about. What's in front of you? Big. Boy here I. Know yeah, blue glass really does get you fucked. Up. All right. Well, carry on boys. You say you're welcome. You're. Welcome. He stole a shit car. A whole, yeah. Baby. I landed a hit. Great shot. Thanks, Domino. Seeing that there are people ganging up on retro, I'm going
to walk my happy ass over there. Well, I can't move my thingy anymore. Hold on. Oh, I got it. Don't worry. I'm here. I got it. I got it. All right. While I'm while I'm heading over there, I'm reloading with incendiary bullets. Yeah. So take that. Nice. Oh, it's. Bad. Oh, it's not good. Oh, it's bad. It's not a negative crit so it just misfires and doesn't hit. That's OK. I shake it like it's a natural sketch and I do it again. Do you shoot the guy on the left
or the guy on the right? This one, this one I can't ping anymore. Press the hold left, left. Left Mm Hmm OK you shoot. Your first bullet shoots through the room and hits the back of the wall, causing no major problems other than. Shooting don't move anymore, but yeah. Oh fuck and you shoot him in the body for 12 damage? Is that all you do iono? That is both. That is my rate of fire of two and I came on over here. But the incendiary bullets do, yeah. They do extra things, don't
they? Don't they? I don't know what they do, but I do know they do extra things. That's why I put them in. In your gun. In my gun. When using this ammunition, whenever you deal damage to a target through their armor, you ignite the target. Thank. God, that's what I was hoping they did. Until your targets in action to put themselves out, they take two damage directly to their HP whenever they end their turn. Multiple instances of this effect cannot stack.
You can't be on fire and also on fire, but the guy looks at you and. Oh fuck. Oh. Shit and he's inside so the rain does not put out the fire. Exactly, that's why I did that and I high 5 vendo. And you go to high 5 Bendel, but you do it every dead body. So we'll have sanitization. Oh, oh EW. No, don't sit there. Oh. Oh, I oh, oh, thank you. Oh, where's the detent? I've still got that guy's like bits of brain on my foot. Yeesh. But you're all innate, so that doesn't bother you.
Not right now, but it will later. Well, everyone else getting rat in the thick of it, so let's go ahead and join them and I'm going to step right over here and take a shot at this is big boy right here, right? No, that's the boss. Oh, that's the boss. This is big. This is big boy. Well, there's, you know, Domino seems to to have the boss taken care of. So let's go ahead and just Bang Bang against the boss here. Or sorry, big boy here. All right, so you take two shots at Bad Boy.
The first one hits beautifully. That's it. You can dodge. Bullets just step. Out of the rain, you don't. Work. Oh, the first bullet misses from the gun that didn't work earlier. Yeah, it's still not clean. The second bullet, though, hits as he steps to avoid the other one. Oh. That was smart, Jeb. Oh. Nice. And he takes our 12 damage. Are those armour piercing? No, there's regular 45 caliber big boy moments. But he did go under half health.
Good, that slammy fuck the. The He gets the same in an injury as domino. Poetic justice, perhaps, as you watch a muscle on his side buckle underneath his skin. Yep, Yep. Let's see, that's how a domino feels. Don't feel too good now, does it? No, not really. Well, just think about what you're doing, that's all. I thought he'd still be sick from drinking that Red Tide ammonia cocktail. That was a few months ago. The Tide Pod. Yeah. Oh, are you guys doing that Tide Pod challenge again?
Don't do that. They look like candy. It's not good. Wow. Barry, that's an old reference. I got yours. It always comes back around. It's no longer. Chicks. The boss tries to attack Domino, missing with his very heavy weapon as it smashes onto the ground and the ground cracks, but Domino rolls a crit 33 on evasion and manages to dodge 10 feet. Oh, you. Missed and very heavy medley weapons only have a rate of fire of 1 bitch. I love that Domino loves to curse.
Really knows his stuff. It feels good in the mouth, Iona. Phrasing. I'm sorry, what? Well, I didn't sign up for this casting couch. I would believe. It money. I would believe that the cars here in Night City run off of lithium ion batteries, correct? No, it's Chim, It's petrol. 2. Yeah, it's 2. 2. 22. Synthetic petrol. They make it out of wheat. It it's ethanol. Biotechnica founded the formula for it. And then they sold it to Seville I. Think so, Savoil. Yeah. And then Petro?
Can. You're welcome. Yeah. Yeah. BM mm hmm If I was to leap out of the vehicle from the opposite side MM hmm and drop a grenade, would dropping a grenade count as an action? Yes. Even if it was to like, I don't know, say have the spoon pin get pulled if I was to, you know, angle it just right to get it knocked off with the window shield wiper thing. Evans over here. Are you sure it's a it's an action, even if it's, oh, I don't know, dope as hell. I'm. Going to rule.
Cool this as best I can. Look, if you can do a real cool thing, but you can only really 'cause damage with the grenade is what I'm getting at. OK. That's why you can do kind of Bony shocks and stuff by pushing that guy because there's no damage so it doesn't have the same effect balance wise. All right then, I would like to
drop a grenade. Sure. As I run out of the vehicle and I'm going to run towards the couch, but I'm going to try to grab slash tackle Vendel at the same time, so hopefully they're not caught in the blast. Oh damn, that's fucking lit dude. Wow. Yeah, that's lit fam all. Right. Roll for it. What do you want me to roll? Acrobatics. Brawling. We don't. That's athletics evasion. 17 yeah. Fendale also has to roll evasion, but gets +1 thanks to Retro. I can never remember.
Fighting. Fighting 15. 15 yes, good enough you make it to the other side of the sofa. Retro as the car splints, Roll me 5 DC. Damn. Does Iona need to roll for evasion at all? Oh my cool, just standing next to the blast. You're not next to it, you're. No, that's really far because that's like 20 feet. So no if. It ain't hitting if it ain't hitting, bad boy, it ain't hitting Iona. I was about to say. All right. And the vehicle gets an extra 262-D6 stamp of edge.
That's five with A4 and A1 and it explodes. The guy who was on fire is now more on fire but also dead. You can be more on fire than you were before and also be dead. And he's dead on the ground. The other guy takes math. Oh, critical injury. This is fun. Oh. Shit, I got he took math he. Took math he He steps back and his friend's body lands on his hand and you watch his fingers crush underneath the weight of a metal. Oh. Fuck after you died you fucking. Break.
He's got -4 to all actions for the rest of time because he's not long for this world and the vehicle has exploded. Hey guys, I found a parking spot. Great. I mean, I don't know, I thought our spot seemed fine. Honestly, it's closer to the exit. Yeah, but this one's closer. To what? Yeah, what it's. Vandel's turn. It is Vandel's turn. There's. The lighters on that.
Thanks Retro, it's my. Turn Vandel is going to Vandel is going to escape through this crowd of friendlies here with their sword out and try to escape around the the big bad boy, the big boy, not the bad boy, the big boy and slice him to help Domino. Amazing. All right, have a slice that's. Not. Good, he says, as a sword just goes through his lower abdomen. Oh, Oh no. Twice. Oh, oh, Oh no. Two creep fails in a row for the boss of these maelstroms. He's not doing well.
Good job, Lendell. Thanks. Lendell's getting the slice of that cake. Oh 5. Yeah, Phil, what's that crunch sound? I would recognize that. I think we've, I think we've crunched like so many ribs by now. That's. Like. Oh, that's a rib cracking. Sound. That's definitely a rib. Yeah. Oh yeah. That's like R68 and seven. Do do we have enough, enough movement to take a step back and back away out of melee range? Yes. All right. Because then that has quite a lot of movement.
Very true. They're very. Fast, they pull their sword back out of him and take a step back towards you. Iona. Yeah, so they they pull the sword out of the big bad and and as they do it, they're pushing themselves back on their roller feet into like a power stance in front of Iona. I'll. Protect you. Wow, you are looking so cool. Yeah. Good job. I looked really cool, it was nothing to do with the NPC rolling 2 crip fails. Oh no, you were awesome. I was great.
It would be that guy's turn, but he's on fire and dead. Yeah. What a lazy bastard. Journey into the World of Frost Born, The newest arc of Dungeons at Randomness takes place 100 years after our last, meaning it's a perfect time to jump into the show. A small group of adventurers embark on an epic tale of rebuilding and revenge in the magically frostbitten world of Tharia. They'll struggle to stay alive in harsh conditions as they call in every favor they have in
order to get payback. Against a corrupt king. New audio and video episodes are posted every Monday, and you can even help the group build the settlement as part of our Discord. Find us on Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts. The endless winter has finally come. And I'll be joining Dungeons in Randomness on May 31st at 7:00 PM West Coast time as part of Theraathon. Come check it out. And now, back to the show. No. No. With the rebar bat, Bendel has
to roll Invasion you've. Inflicted a critical entry says so. Right there. That's not good. They take, they take 10. Oh my. My abusion doesn't though. Doesn't count. Oh wait, that's. And fast. Boy, oh, you rolled a 16? I did. You did. Avoid it, yes. Oh, thank. Goodness, because it means that they have to move to a square choose. Vandel has to move to a square. Yeah, they can't stand there. I need to. Be here. Well, move back to where you were, I suppose. OK.
Moves towards the larger and more dangerous Maelstrom, avoiding the damage. But the damage was was a crit success and that would have been really bad. That would have been bad times. And he attacks again. Vendel has to Dodger 13. I think that might do it. That'll do it. Pushes bad boy back and he falls over the dead person behind him. He has fallen prone. That's. Right, that's what you get. Cross arms pose A. Little foot A little foot thing that's cool a. Little foot thing.
Yeah, he's got a little token on him for prime Little Foot. What On his token? I put a little thing. It's not. On him to pin him down to the ground. Oh, I, I totally. I was like, I have no idea what that was. I see it now. It's not enough. Yeah, the one, the one dead guy next to a next to me has a broken heart. Poor guy. Poor guy. A male, she steps out to the building and attempts to shoot Domino. Good luck buddy. 16. Yeah. Domino Dodgers with a 20. 4 Thanks, Phoebe.
Nobody can hit you, Domino. Only the best thanks to you. While looking at you, he attempts to dodge again successfully. See. Nice try, motherfucker. I know he's a grunt, but that cockiness is going to come back to him so quick. If I know anything about no latency, that always comes back to bite us. A bullet comes flying towards Vendel. Dodge an 18 Vendel. What? No ow that. Bladed my armour by one, fuck you. Do that on the spot. It's hard. Let's. Mean no, don't you mean again,
I'm going to dodge just a team. It's going to be fine. See 1219, fuck you. Fuck. You. Maybe you should have let it then it could have gone with that other bullet hole that went through your your jacket. That was Jeb. Yeah. See. I like how you didn't have to fight it, just yeah. I fire back at bad boy all. Right, you get plus one to hit him because he's praying. Yes. 17 + 1. To 18. Oh, come on. Come on. Phoebe, Phoebe, Phoebe. Tell him it's time to take his medicine.
It's time to take your medicine. He's on the ground, he just fell over a body. There's no way he can dodge a bullet while like on his back, so he takes it. Critical injury time? Oh no. No. Damn, not really healed. Me lost time. You could. You could heal me again. You did. Oh. God, now you have to know that this critical injury. I rolled A10. And that is? Spinal injury. Oh, the. Worst. Ouchy, one of the. Worst kinds of injuries you can get, good Sir. Oh. Is that your? Medical.
Opinion. Yes it is. Yeah. Oh fuck. Well. I've got a little bit of life left. I might just like this. It's not like you have two shots. Right. I was so distracted. Yeah I do, but I was too busy saying cool lines. Have us do us all, don't worry. It's what you have to pay in order to say something cool. They call that the no latency effect. Indeed.
Now you rolled A crit fail, which means he does get to avoid in prone, so if he'd rolled under 11 he still would have been shot, but the bullet just hits him to the side of the head and he flinches at its ricochet. There's more where that came from. Well, there doesn't seem to be much except for the people over there being very high. And I'm just going to let that happen because that's just, I don't, I don't need to bother them. So I'm just here to there's. Water falling from the sky.
Isn't it amazing? It's. Very cool to touch. I'm just going to be here to back up what looks like a fight for Domino. OK, so I guess already an action to shoot if space clears up because there are too many people in front of me. Well, bad boy's right in front of you on the ground. Oh, I thought he was dead. Phoebe missed.
Oh, never mind, I'll shoot him. You shoot this guy on the ground, he can't dodge, he has very little health and a bullet goes straight through his chest and you watch blood come out of the bullet hole as he takes his last breath and bad boy is dead. I am there. Yep, there he goes. Oh, sorry. I I thought there might have. No, no. He was just that close to death. All right. Good. And that's a rate of fire, one that gun isn't. It yes. Yeah, the Super cross, yeah.
Good red ends. I fired it by accident, but that's OK. I mean, what good, you know, what was He's working to society. No, no, it worked. You look really cool. Plus it looks really cool when you hold it like that. Thank you, very shiny. Lightningly well. I suppose now I mean should I help Domino with the boss again? Seems like maybe Domino could take care of himself and if so, does he feel like, I don't know, disrespected if I were to help him or? Job. Yeah. This is a team of.
It you know, I always knew I liked you. Bye. Bye. Oh amazing. Oh. Yeah, that's amazing. There's a regular, aren't they are not armor piercing. You said that already. Correct, they are not armor piercing. Cool. All right, He takes more damage. And you shot twice, didn't you? The second one was a crit. Well done. I rolled the dash really good. And this guy is very low on health. You see him bleed as the blood cascades down his body as he looks over to his dead right hand.
Dead right hand. What's isn't that that song? That's a song. You've killed my friend, my brother. You came here. I've massacred my people. Who the fuck are you? I'm Domino. We're the chiropractors because they'd be blowing outbacks. I'm Vendel. Whoa. I mean, hell yeah. He steps back in the rain and takes another shot. Domino. Domino smirks but gets hit all the same. Taking. That's a lot of damage guys somewhere. So what's in the crit? Yes.
It was not a credit. So we have that, but unfortunately Domino takes a little bit more damage. Pain was an in is an interesting experience everyone. And he honestly you, you never get used to it. And the boss takes another step back and goes to reload his gun with the rest of his movement. Walk. Retro, you've got a clear shot, man. How far away is he? Come on homie. 25. Take the shop Retro. OK, Retro's going to pull out his assault rifle, aim it at the at the big boss.
Looks like you're going to be a lefty for the rest of your life. 25 You're doing a name shot. No. OK. But I've done a name shot that's going to caught making what, 21 and this guy can dodge. He tries to dodge but fails and you shoot him with this assault rifle named Skeleton Key. That is still 10 damage, which is all the health he has, and as you blow a hole through his lower abdomen I can see through the other side.
As the rain cascades down his body, the blood mixes with the puddle below him and he falls into a lump of flesh on the ground. Oh, Gross did. You do anything else retro? No, I think I busted him pretty good. Damn. And busting makes me feel good. And there are only two more people left on the battlefield. Are you going to fight them? I mean, I don't know, maybe this is a good opportunity to teach, to teach Domino about empathy and the value of human life. Well, disarm them first. Right.
And then take all their stuff, their material possessions. Right. But what? What do I do? Do Do I? Says Vandel. Do are we, are we going to, we killed their bosses, so we are we going to wipe them all out? Well, I mean, I, they're no threat to us, right? I mean, we are the good guys, right? Yes. Wait, is this one dead? No, no, he's not dead. He tried to shoot me earlier. So there's what are you? Is he cowering? I'm not cowering, that's. Just the way I stand.
Fuck you. Well, hold on, hold on, hold on. Let me let me back up. Let me ask you A. Question for this life. Did you want to die? Not particularly. OK, then get the hell out of here. Really. Yeah. Drop drop your weapons, take take your buddy's weapons and get the fuck out of here. OK, Yeah. Give us all of your material possessions and then leave. He drops some money on the ground. He drops 32 eddies.
Apparently that's not bad. And a medium pistol with half a clip of ammo in it. Hey hey buddy, make a few friends with you too. The. The the this guy and these hi guys. Yeah, yeah. Don't pull me. Up all right, I'm going to roll. That's that's a 2. That's not enough. And as he tries to pull this guy out, he pulls him by the the windscreen wiper, and the windscreen wiper pulls out of the guy's body and he fucking dies. Oh well. Oh fuck. All right, and now go ahead and
yeah, just leave. Leave him, take the rest of your friends. But like I said, all of your stuff, we're going to need all of it. Yeah. OK. Here you go. And the other two drop some money and that's 40 eddies in total. And they turn around. And another two cups. What? Hold on you. Yeah, I said. I said all of your things and I am going to need that jacket. This jacket. Well, yeah, I just think it looks kind of nice. Well. It's really. Fucked up it's only got 3 on the left.
Oh, I'm not. I don't want it for and it's not for me. Oh, OK, but it. Reduces over to zero, I guess. And I give it to Domino and we go just here you go. You know, you wear this. You can always remember the first time that you took a man's laugh. And you watch these men run away from this combat. And as you turn to say that to Domino, you turn around, all of you, to see Domino standing over the body of the boss with a piece of the boss's flesh in his hand. Just looking.
Oh. No, I've seen that I go over. No. That's not good. Go do your thing, no. Jim. I place a hand on his, on his shoulder. Domino. Now listen. Listen here. I know exactly how you're feeling right now, because God damn if I don't smell like a
fantastic piece of Tri tip. But I'm going to tell you something, something I told a good friend of mine and I look over my shoulder over at at at retro say you can overcome this addiction for me when it took, like I said earlier, a season and a half of podcast, but I think with your indomitable will you can get over this. Jeb, you and I are both aware that if I eat this dead man's flesh, I will heal my rooms.
Well, yeah, but it's kind of here's the thing that they don't really tell you in I guess AI school. I don't know how you got smart, but it's kind of a taboo to eat people just kind of in general look down upon. A&B is just kind of socially bad across the board. Most cultures in this world do not allow for cannibalism, and not City, as fucked up as it is in various ways, still does hold itself to at least that standard. So you haven't eaten my human beings?
Oh no, no, I have definitely more than once various times, but it was something that I I feel shamed for deep in my heart and I don't know that want you to feed. Of order Jeff, I as you said, cannibalism's looked down upon. However, as you have stated stated earlier during this fight, Domino ain't people. Oh shit, yeah, that's a good point. What hell of a loophole. Go ahead, bud. Go. For it, buddy. Well, I didn't ask back to you to say yes, Retro. Hey man, it's locally sourced,
you know, free range. Put it down somewhat. I suppose if you don't eat it, you're kind of letting it go to waste in a way. Yeah. Shit, I really didn't think about how ethical that really is. And Domino goes to eat this person. Does anyone try and stop him? Like the full person? He's like taking a bit of his a chunk of this guy's lower abdomen flesh. I did just think of something hold on Bud Domino real quick.
I did think of, of the optics of this 'cause I, I'm thinking, you know, if there's CCTV footage of this or somehow it gets out that one of our crew is. Oh jab, jab, jab, jab. There wouldn't be anything left after we're done with this place. And without breaking eye contact, it takes a huge bite out of this piece of flesh.
Yeah, that's, this is going to have to be something that we might have to, you know, cover up or otherwise make sure it does not get out that one of our crew is, you know, eating people. What an interesting turn of events that my first meal in skin space is human. That. Sounded. So just to be clear, we are saying that you're not human. Did we land on that? Oh I, I don't feel good about this. That sounded strangely comfortable and disturbing. That's not good.
Oh shit, did he eat the Adam's apple? Next time on no latency. You don't have to eat people to heal. I mean, we have a doctor on call. Do you still think he's hot, Vivi? I don't know how to answer that question. That itself is the answer. We came here, we fucked their shit up, now we're just going. To eating people is bad. I am also concerned. Yes, we're going in the building. What'd you find back here? Whoa, isn't. That what we're doing already. Oh Vendel, we should also go
inside. It is raining. Did you kill these people like real quick before I got here? Or Jeff, do you recognize this person? Oh. A light switch. Oh, there's a scorch mark down here where a rocket must have hit can. Somebody help me unlock this thing? Make sure you get the secrets though from him first. So he does need to repay us. This was a person who had a light life. In debt to them, I am sure. Iona they work at Biotechnica do. Not show him that.
So it makes sense to why he's in here but but I. Don't know what Maelstrom is doing with all these guys. You said that that's a clone. Thank you listener once again for joining us here at No Latency.
