Ah, I was assuming that Dexterity was the attribute used for ranged weapons, applied as per the rules for combat: "On a hit, the attacker rolls the weapon's damage and adds their relevant attribute modifier." Sorry for the mistake; I'm still learning the system.
Actually,
my bad. I was too focused on the laser bonus, but you're right, Douklan has a Dexterity modifier for his ranged weapons damage. 14 it is =)
Underworld, Near the Forbidden Regions, Zyronis
As the monstrous hybrid creature emerged from the abandoned shuttle, Hank and Mercer unleashed a barrage of fire. Their shots found their mark but striked the creature's armor and mechanical components. As such, the damage inflicted seemed minimal, the creature's cybernetic parts absorbing the impact without faltering.
But Douklan stepped forward with his plasma projector. With a low whine, the device hummed to life, building up the repulsive force necessary to eject the magnetic field containing the plasma. The air crackled with energy as the plasma sphere formed, the intense heat radiating off of it palpable even from a distance.
In a split second, the plasma sphere shot forth from Douklan's weapon, hurtling across the cavern with incredible speed. The silence of the plasma's flight was shattered by the deafening roar of its ejection, echoing through the vast expanse of the chamber. The sphere collided with the cybernetic monstrosity, engulfing it in a searing blaze of energy.
Meanwhile, Erin, Corbin and Peter coordinated their attacks with precision. Corbin and Erin aimed down the sights of their laser rifles, unleashing a quiet but deadly burst of light that sliced through the air with lethal accuracy. Peter, wielding his assault rifle, joined in, letting out a sustained burst of gunfire that peppered the creature's meat.
As the combined onslaught of plasma, laser, and ballistic fire rained down upon the creature, its cybernetic components began to sizzle and smoke. With a final, guttural roar, the creature staggered, its monstrous form wracked with pain and damage beyond repair.
And then the creature collapsed to the ground, its
lifeless form lying motionless amidst rubble and debris from its cybernetic parts.
As the
whole crew regrouped, their weapons still poised for any sign of further danger, they knew that their journey was far from over.

End of combat. Overwhelming fire does that. Almost everything in this game are "squishy little things". =)
Anyway, what do you do?
