STAGE FIVE
Note: IBT is only for enrolled players. The bot is very experimental and may fail, if something unusual happens, please wait and I'll provide advice what to do - this is a work in progress.
You make your way down into the marsh lands.
After walking for hours through knee high poop, you surprisingly make it to the coast line without being attacked (even the bosses henches won't walk around in that crap!)
There is a small coastal town and you head to the docks to get yourself a boat.
On the way you are stopped by 3 unusual looking pirates, they seem to want something from you.
"The boss says he will pay us good if we stop you ere!"
This mob of losers aren't strong individually, but together this will be a struggle...They Attack!
(You must score a hit of 7 or more to win this Stage).
Quick Summary of what you need to do to attack
You must type !l3 to declare you are ready to play the stage. This will tell the bot you are ready and have have 3 life points.
From this point on you have a number of options. These are summarized below:
Attack
You may do a basic or difficult attack, but should only do the attack for your character class:
Archer attack:
- Quick attack, likely to hit: !onearrow
- Difficult attack, may not hit, but hits for allot: !manyarrows
Wizard attack:
- Quick attack, likely to hit: !mysticzap
- Difficult attack, may not hit, but hits for allot: !mysticblast
Warrior attack:
- Quick attack, likely to hit: !warriorstab
- Difficult attack, may not hit, but hits for allot: !warriorslash
If gobbo appears you get one shot to defeat him (can only use difficult attack) if you beat him you may run the command !gobbodrop, failure means loss of a life point and you may then resume your attack on the enemy... as gobbo has run away, the little Git!
Pickpocket time - You may attempt to pickpocket the enemy, you must do this before they are dead.
- To pick the pocket of your foe, type a reply !openpockets. Then wait to see what you get, it could be a positive or negative item and it only helps/hinders you for the stage in which you got it.
Summon a permanent random item. - To begin all players are level 0 and you may only have a single level0 item for the entire campaign.Level 0 items are random when summoned, to grab your level0 item do this.
- Transfer 0.01 Steem to the @wizardzap bot with a memo: "for ibt" Doing this will also have the bot upvote your other steemit posts while you remain a IBT player. If the amount is less then 0.01 Steem or the memo is incorrect you will need to wait for me to manually assist.
- Type in a reply below !ibtluckydip - Then just wait and see what level 0 item you luck, most are +1 to hit, none are negative items.
NOTE: The attack will only be activated if you type the command in on it's own in a reply. Please only use an attack for your class for this IBT - if you use an attack for another class, it will not be counted and you may not win Steem. You may need to wait a few seconds, then refresh the page to see the results. IF nothing happens, please be patient and someone will advise what to do next.
If you lost the attack
Should you lose the attack against the onscreen foe, simply type !l2 to display you have only 2 lives left and attack again. If you die again, type !l1 to display you are down to one life.
All your unused life points per stage go towards you defeating the boss at the final stage, so try to save them.
Levelup
If you win on the first attack on this stage type !upgrade1, as we progress through the stages you win on the first go for any stage you can type !upgrade1 through to !upgrade3. Upon reaching Level3 you may use the !special attack.
If your new and a bit lost, just watch carefully what other players do to play. Worse case type a reply and either myself or @doughtaker will help out.
Have fun!
Special thanks to @spaceginger for his artistic skills with the Interactive Battle Tournament Image above, and some abandonware game images from secret of monkey island. 100% of Steem raised from this post will go to those who win on the first attack.
IMPORTANT NOTICE AND UPDATE
Our poor community bot is struggling, yet we are so close to being through.
I'm going to suggest
Sorry to everyone - work in progress
To clarify point #1 after discussing with @lordnigel: all players who complete Stage 5 will be credited with a first attack win for purposes of sharing in the STEEM pool for Stage 5. Banked life point results from the combat on this stage will stand and be validated for the tournament.
Game status as of Thursday 7/19/2018, 7:50 am UTC
General notes:
Read across the row with your character and username to see how you're doing. The number 31 appearing under any stage column indicates a flawless victory and that you will receive a share of the STEEM pool for that stage.
B$ = your current banked life points, FV = number of flawless victories, LVL = character level (max 3).
MOD = the modifier/value provided by your !ibtluckydip item, if you bought one.
SP? = whether or not you've gained access to the !special command (Y = yes)
Individual player notes:
@wren1221, @o07, hurry!
@castleberry, noooooo, I just got a zero (i think). These guys owned Angel Food and his cocky sober attitude!
Oh no, gobbo war is going to break my phone browser!
I want to sew some pirate limbs to my face to increase my power!

You have all 3 life points and are starting a new Stage:

!warriorslash
You draw your sword and prepare to do a magical overhead swing
You mess up the booster spell and zap yourself - You loose a life
Better luck next time!
!l2
You still have 2 life points:
TIP: Grab as many items as you can plus consider a less difficult attack

!mysticzap
You perform a quick fireball attack:
Wow! You impressed yourself with like the most totally perfect fireball everrr, it exploded in the enemies face like its the 4th of July of a Dragon Festival during a Michael Jackson concert. Are you literally Merlin?! You bring home a mighty hit of 6 points! Abra Kadabra and whatnot! Nice! you needed to hit for 8 and including bonuses from items you hit for 12. You won the fight and may now progress to the next Stage once its posted by @lordnigel
Looks like a small bug here @lordnigel. Stage text says need to hit for 7, yet bot tells me needed to hit for 8

!onearrow
You quickly draw an arrow and shoot:
the string breaks:oops! Gobbo happened to be walking by at the time and knows youre an easy target, so he attacks..@gobbo
.You have activated gobbo, as an Archer you must use the difficult attack !manyarrows to equal or beat his attack!.. you will see his attack below shortly
Gobbo makes his best attack.
He laughs like a jerk.
The sneaky git hits for a 1.
!manyarrows
You load your bow and prepare for a powerful shot
Pathetic! The string breaks and people watching laugh, ashamed you turn into a coward bird and fly away - you lose a life. You died and gobbo ran away. Your next attack will be against the Stage Foe again
Aww a 7 to win!?! Are they powerful? They look like powerful drunks!
Angel Food probably shouldn't eat them.

Angel Food holds item 2: Clock! +2 to players hit!
Tip: Eat more veggies - they make you strong
Void that, I already had the boots. Bot forgot.
I only have +1 technically.
@doughtaker Please advise: What is the best way to proceed without creating more confusion? Should I wait? I gotta level up too.
Proceed as normal. You can either re-do the bot's calculations with the correct numbers or wait for me to sort all the math out. I'm in a similar boat, except I'm being told I have a +3 item when I really only have +1.
!upgrade1
LEVEL ONE! Your awesome!!:
TIP: If you win against the stage foe on this life, you win an extra Steem prize at post payout
!mysticblast
You summon up your inner energy and prepare to produce a powerful lightening pulse:
Unfortunately, just as the spell goes off, you realise you were standing in a puddle of water. You electrocute yourself and melt..Lol! I mean cmon, a puddle?! You lose a life, you big goof.
Better luck next time!
🚩 🚩 🚩 STAGE 5 IS CLOSED. 🚩 🚩 🚩
@castleberry is granted an extension to complete Stage 5 as he did attempt to play the stage but the bots failed to work. This will have no effect on this stage's payouts, because @lordnigel declared that anyone who took part in the stage, regardless of end result, would share in Stage 5's prize pool.
Here are the Stage 5 results (finalized for everyone except @castleberry):
As long as any number (including zero) appears in the same row as your name under column S5, you share in the Stage 5 prize pool.
Congratulations @lordnigel!

You run up to the enemy and deliver a blow that makes the earth shudder and the sound impact is heard even in the villages far beyond the Horizon. Are you Achilles? Your enemy is destroyed by the monstrous blow that delivers a hit of 12 points. Songs of Glory will praise your name and Legends will tell the story of this battle.
