Clerics are always OP against undead, especially weaker undead like zombies and skeletons. They have something called Destroy Undead which is why she could take so many out when she arrived and undead tend to be weak against radiant damage. She will balance out more against other enemies but she is a beast with undead.

In the actual game, it’s confirmed that Sylas was dying from a *RARE* disease (nothing common about it). None of the healers could cure him, so Delilah went out to find a cure. She eventually did but was a day too late, and Sylas died. She screamed into the ethereal over her loss, and a voice whispered back saying he could help her. So she followed his orders, and revived Sylas as a vampire. The catch was that Delilah serve the Whispered One from then onward.

Remember, Pike is in a temple where the priestess said that the power of the Everlight was amplified, and could be dangerous for anyone whose connection was tenuous. Once she was good with the Everlight, her goddess gave her an extra gift to help her friends. It's mainly because she's doing this at the temple.

Clerics can be VERY powerful. Pike specifically is a War Cleric, so she's a MONSTAAAAH! Though do keep in mind, the main reason she's THIS effective is because she's going up against UNDEAD. Her holy powers are tailored to DESTROY undead. Against other types of creatures she'll not be quite THAT powerful. She couldn't dust a dozen orcs for example.

Nice catch about Pike and Keyleth's powers coming from different places! Keyleth's class is druid, which means she draws her power directly from nature/the earth, while Pike is a cleric which means she channels power from a divine source (Pike's come from the goddess Everlight). There are also other forms of magic, for example Delilah is a wizard which means her powers come from years of study and spell memorization.

Quick Summary on Magic Casters: Scanlan- Bard Class- Their bardic abilities come from the power of music, art, and performance but their spellcasting specifically is a combination of a little innate talent, keen observation, quick wit, etc. Bards learn magic similar to wizards, with the difference being that while Wizards would know exactly everything about a specific spell and the reason certain components are required to cast them, a Bard usually just knows the practical skills required to cast said spell. Keyleth- Druid Class- Their Magic for the most part comes from Nature itself. Some (but not all) Druids get their power from a nature deity or spirit, but they do NOT actively worship said being. Keyleth does not worship any deity. Pike- Cleric Class- Unlike Druids, Clerics get their magic directly from their Deity, and actively worship them through their prayer and actions. Bonus! Allura- Wizard- if you don’t remember, Allura was the blond woman in blue seen in the early episodes (1-4). Wizards learn their magic through pure College-Level studying on everything there is to learn about magic. While she did not get an active role in this season, don’t sell her short. High Level Wizards are extremely powerful and are the apex of almost all things magic. I haven’t named all the magic classes, but this short list should be good enough for now.

fun you should mention the Avatar.. Marisha Ray, the player behind Keyleth is a big time Avatar fan and Keyleth's Aramenthe, the reason why she can't go home is her traveling the world to be tested by all 4 of the Ashari tribes, which are tied to different elements... so... on a separate note, Pike teleporting in was a necessity because her player, Ashley Johnson, at the time was in New York filming a TV show, Blindspot... so she would miss a lot of sessions. Matt Mercer, the DM, came up with the solution of her astral projecting onto the battlefield when Ashley had the time to play (often she would join by skypeing in) and in DnD clerics are specifically very effective against undead of all kinds (such as the army of zombies and Silas)

Movies have conditioned people to think swords can cut through anything. In reality a hardened wood shaft(hahha, shaft) would withstand most sword strikes. The sword would certainly do damage and weaken the wood but it is incredibly unrealistic to cut straight through. In fact the sword blade is very likely to be damaged by the wood. Swords, in general, are not built for chopping hard objects.

There's a thing that is not really extra clear in the show: when you hear stuff like "the Everlight", "the Dawnfather", "the Whispered One", they are naming gods. They are using their titles because they cannot use the actual names for copyright reasons. The Everlight is Sarenrae, goddess of atonement and compassion; the Dawnfather is Pelor, god of the sun, summer and agriculture; the Whispered One is Vecna, god of necromancy and secrets. That's why seeing the Sun Tree dessicated is so shocking, it means that there's shit powerful enough to contrast the literal power of another god, not just your run-of-the-mill evil dudes. And indeed, in this episode they show Delilah pledging herself and her husband to the evil god of necromancy (and Vecna has not done it out of good hear. He has... plans we'll see in a couple of episodes and more at large in a couple of seasons if they keep the series alive to cover the whole campaign :P) and getting powers from him; it wasn't as easy as performing a ritual as it might have seemed from the scene.

Fighting undead is how D&D rewards you for playing a Cleric. Against normal enemies, you are a support player with a few nice damage options, but nothing amazing. You’re gonna cast “Bless” to buff up your side, and heal the rest of your party, a lot. But, against evil beings who are weak against radiant (holy) damage, that’s when you get some swagger….and against the Undead, you are a THERMONUCLEAR BOMB. You are like the Jordan, Kobe, and Lebron of killing skeletons and zombies. And it feels good.

Kileth can absolutely hold her own in melee combat! Especially with D&D mechanics. She can wild shape into almost any animal, and that essentially gives her a bucket load of temporary hit points. And she can do that twice before taking a short rest for an hour and being able to do that again. All of her attacks in that form are considered magical damage, and if she cast a spell that requires concentration, she can cast a spell, turn into the animal, and maintain that spell while still attacking as an animal. She is 100% OP in that sense! Which is why, as you have pointed out, the thing that makes her so interesting is her lack of confidence and her journey to learn to become a good leader!

About the similarities between the Everlight ability and Keyleth ability, there is no relation and the power is different. Druids use nature-themes power and the daylight spell produces sunlight. Clerics uses divine-natured abilities and use spells that deal radiant-type damage. Just because you can fart fire out of your butt, it doesn't mean you have the same power source as the god of fire the Allhammer. Vampires just happens to be extra weak to both direct sunlight AND radiant damage.

Okay, there are two abilities that came into play here from a game play perspective. The first is Channel Divinity: Destroy Undead. Clerics gain access to this at a certain level (11 I believe) and it destroys all undead below a CR of 2 if they fail a saving throw. Notice how most of the giants were fine, except the one Pike landed on? That's because they're too powerful to be destroyed outright. (In game, they can still be Frightened for 1 min, which is the low-level effect of Channel Divinity) The important thing is this ability ONLY works on undead. So Pike can't just nuke everything every time they get into a fight. The part when Pike lit up all the weapons is likely an ability called Divine Intervention. It basically calls down a miracle. The catch is you have to roll on a d100 and hit your level or below, so at this point Pike has about a 10% chance of getting that to work. If it succeeds, your deity can basically give reality the middle finger Scanlan style to help you out depending on what you asked for. Also, if it works you can't use that ability again for one in-game week. So, is Pike powerful? Yes, but not game-breakingly so. Wait until Keyleth's capstone abilities start kicking in lol

So, here's some bts knowledge about Delilah and Syrus's backstories that we don't get to see in the show. . . . . . In a QnA livestream for either this episode or the next 3 episodes, the writers of the show said that there was a deleted scene about "The Whispered One" calling in on their deal to bring Syrus back to life. Basically, Delilah made the deal with 'im that in exchange for bringing back her love, either just her or both her and Syrus needed to do this whole plan that they have been cooking up for the past at least 5 years. Unfortunately however, by the end of the season, the show needed to make some cuts in order to stay within their 30min (22-24min) time restriction of their episodes. They admit that there is a ton of stuff that end up on the cutting floor in order to make everything fit in their timeframe, and this scene I descried here was their very last one that they had to take out. It's sad since, b/c this was originally a DnD campaign and show, some of the best parts of this show I feel is seeing the parts away from the party, from Pike's side story to Syrus and Delilah's stories and scheming, and to miss out on that extra lil' bit of more peeking behind the Dungeon Master's Curtain/Screen and seeing what was going on inside Matt's head, it's just a shame. But even if I can complain about missing out on that, I cannot complain about what got instead. I'm glad you guys are really enjoying the series, can't wait to see you react to the end!

In livestream campaign terms, they originally started not in Dungeons and Dragons, but another tabletop system called Pathfinder, which is way more intricately customizable. When they converted their characters to 5th Edition D&D, Pike was made a Life Domain cleric, pretty much the most effective group healer in the game. But because they lack innate heavy armor proficiency, they can be pretty squishy. Before the livestream, Pike died at one point and was resurrected, and began training to switch to the War domain while still worshipping Sarenrae/The Everlight. By the time the stream started, she had already changed over to a War cleric, but here in LoVM, the change is realized in her heavier armor and morningstar.

The gods hate anything that messes with the proper order of death, so clerics are specifically given the power to handily deal with that. These things are just corpses barely held together with a bit of necromantic magic, hit them with the right thing (radient damage) and they just fall apart. Pike will still be powerful going forward, but all these attacks of hers will do like half as much damage to regular monsters.

Clerics are the best against undead. They literally have a feature called Turn undead and Destroy Undead. They can wipe them out so easily. Thats why Pike seems very OP here, thats what shes strongest against

Pike is the best example of a support class. And Clerics like Pike are ALWAYS op against undead.

So catching a question during this I'm not sure has been answered yet. A lot of keyleth has gone unexplained and I'll do my best to describe her character concept without revealing spoilers. So basically Keyleths creator and player, Marisha Ray, is a HUUUGE Avatar fan. She based her character and their culture around the bending tribes of the Avatar series. Her Aramente that she mentioned in the cart on the way to white stone is akin to the avatars journey to master the elements. She is basically on a journey to meet her 3 other sister tribes, she is of the Air Ashari, to prove herself as the leader of her people.

True, Pike IS A POWERHOUSE. But so is ALL of VM... Grog smashed a dragon head in half. Vex & Vax are hyper-lethal assassins. Scanlan is a bard of epic levels. Keyleth is literally the most OP in a group of OP. No Mercy Percy INVENTED GUNS. Gotta remember, this is the LEGEND of Vox Machina. _They are all incredibly powerful,_ for being a bunch of chucklefuck assholes.

That's correct, there were two women on the List: Delilah and another. Now I want to know who's "the girl that came earlier". . . . . . . . . Also? *That's what she said.*

Sylas is a vampire lord. They are not created in a normal way. Dracula didn't get bit he got cursed from god if I remember correctly.

Think DnD. A Cleric like Pike is going to be more effective against undead things.

Undead have to serve the necromancer who created them, so Sylas really has no choice.

Pike is so powerful in this episode specifically because they're fighting undead. That's what clerics are built to do.

Keyleth uses magic of nature after communing its self with the energies of the world, nature energy is Devine power , so the power of a Cleric is comparable with a power of a Druid such as Keyleth.

It's so strange them calling Keyleth "Kay" because no one else calls her that. She's always Keyleth (KEY-leth) or Kiki for a nickname. Oh well, it's still good y'all are enjoying the series.

I cant help but feel the pet peeve fury build up every time i heard "Kay" in the beginning of this video lmfao. Yall on Episode 9 and still havent figured out her name is "KEY-LETH" or how Vax calls her "Kiki/KeyKey". PS: Pike isnt OP in general just vs undead enemies. Clerics have spells to literally "Turn undead" instant death for zombies or lower tier undead beings. So though shes very strong, shes not brokenly strong by any means.

We are not calling her “Kay”, We are calling her “K” because her name is Key - Leth. It starts with a K

Er.....no. Keyleth and Pike use entirely different forms of magic. Pike uses Divine magic, Keyleth uses Nature magic. COMPLETELY different sources.
