*it flies towards you like its haphazardly sliding its feet on the ground with the wrist blade extended*

@Path

*Creates an efficient magical barrier only resistant to percussive forces*
Goodbye.
*The plastic explosive I attached to the armor detonates, blowing the arena below it to smithereens*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Source>

*the armor still follows your movement and I float near the walls keeping an eye on you and the orb*
Tricks like that can’t fool magic armor.
*watches the orb then sticks my hand out towards it*
This thing is actually hiding in the mess of magic in the walls! Fascinating!!

@Path

It has before!
*Attaches a putty to the armor and leaps backward*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Source>

*the orb dodges the bullets and the armor charges you while its other arm morphs into a cannon and fires a magical blast like a shotgun*

@Path

*Senses the danger and somersaults over the blast before obscuring my presence and kicking a rock through the smoke to trick the armor*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Source>

I did! You just have to look!!

@Path

Not what I—
*Shakes my head and uses shadow walking to distance myself from the armor, before reemerging and firing bullets at the light*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Source>

*I enhance the spell through you from the connection between our eyes, you feel a boost of energy surge through you like an adrenaline rush and the platforms quickly stack up to take the brunt of the explosion*

@Path

*In a single fluid motion, kicks up one of the shards directly into the face of the armor and rapid-fires shots to kick up dust around the arena*
Levy, give me eyes!

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Source>

*the armor barely budges as the helmet follows you and the glove stops the other projectile*

@Path

So we're doing this dance.
*Shoots the ground below us, casting a directed explosion spell*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Source>

Its not on the armor! That’s why you can’t see it!
*you see a small golden glowing orb moving across the ceiling of the room*

@Path

*Tries tackling the armor into the abyss while shooting the orb with the pistol in my other hand*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Source>

*the plates bend to ricochet the projectiles and the helmet rings as it looks down at you fast*
Its a magically enhanced animated armor. You need to find the core!!

@Path

Highlight it for me; I don't have my eyes right now!
*Grabs onto the leg and tries to channel cascading magical spells through the material in order to weaken its structural integrity*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Source>

*a wrist blade shoots out and blocks the show while sliding back from the impact and it straightens up and readies the blade while multiple paths lift up from the void beneath*
Heh, this is neat.

@Path

*The spell in the bullet actives as it slices in two, and they turn into two drill projectiles that fire into the left shoulder and right hip of the armor, while I slide beneath its blade*
Glad you're having a good time—
*Fires another, now less-powerful blast directly upward into its head*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Source>

*creaking can be heard from the whole room as the whole armor comes to life, jumping back*

@Path

*My stealth deactivates, and I shoot the creature with an empowered blast from one of my pistols, boosted by the ending of the skill*
