Latest revision as of 01:30, 2 February 2018

Fortunately the house on fire, utterly ignored by the firefighters sitting nearby, was scheduled to be demolished and purchased by Hero Dash. Unfortunately, there's a dummy "citizen" in there they want you to go rescue.

If you've selected Hose it down but not Vent some smoke:

It's N degrees cooler than when you got here.

If you've selected Vent some smoke but not Hose it down:

It has M holes in the roof for ventilation.

If you've selected both Hose it down and Vent some smoke:

It's N degrees cooler and has M holes in the roof for ventilation.

Options:

• Hose it down
  
• Vent some smoke
  
• Rush in
  
• We don't need no water
  

Results

If you chose Hose it down:

We Do Need Some Water, Actually
You know it's not actually a house on fire and the Twilight Division of Fire shouldn't be interfering with the Hero Dash, but it's really against the hero code to just leave a house to burn, right?

If you have a Water sprite companion:

You and your water sprite soak the house, dissipating a ton of the heat.

• Cools by 3 degrees

If you know Summon Water Sprite, but don't have a Water sprite companion:

You kind of wish you had your water sprite as you spray down the house, but every bit helps.

• Cools by 1 degree

Otherwise:

You wish you had a little help, but you manage to hose down the house and fight back a bit of the heat

• Cools by 1 degree

If you chose Vent some smoke:

Additional Ventilation
Since smoke is hotter than air, you're pretty sure it float and, if you needed to ventilate some smoke out of a house, it stands to reason you'd need to put some holes in the roof. Right?

I mean, if they wanted people who knew how to fight fires fighting this thing, they'd have called the Twilight Division of Fire.

If you have a ranged weapon equipped and at least 5 extra attacks:

You make a volley of attacks with your <ranged weapon> and ventilate the roof, releasing a massive plume of the smoke. Hopefully the inside's better.

• Makes 3 holes in the roof

If you have a ranged weapon equipped and at least 3 but less than 5 extra attacks:

You make a few attacks with the <ranged weapon> and ventilate the roof, releasing a plume of the smoke. Hopefully the inside's better.

• Makes 2 holes in the roof

If you have a ranged weapon equipped and less than 3 extra attacks:

You make an attack with your <ranged weapon> and ventilate the roof, releasing a trickle of smoke.

• Makes 1 hole in the roof

Otherwise:

You throw a rock and ventilate the roof, releasing a trickle of smoke.

• Makes 1 hole in the roof

And then, if your League has defeated the boss:

You call in a little support from back on your League's roof too, adding a few extra shots for ventilation.

• Makes an additional 1 hole in the roof

If you chose Rush in:

Where Worthingtons Fear to Tread
You run full out into the house.

If you are wearing a gas mask or steam mask:

You find the dummy, then haul it through X damage of the fire and Y damage of thankfully-less-choking smoke.

Otherwise:

You grab the dummy, then haul it through X damage of the fire and Y damage of choking smoke.
