This is a fight between Volley and an supersecret monster. The fight takes place in the sewer and under normal lighting conditions.

Start in center riding Skitter for some odd reason w/scrolls of CL 2 Shield and Magic Weapon in hand.

Buff both. If the first shield fails, use a CL 1 version, same for Magic Weapon. Draw bow, and move out to the right, readying to shoot on sight.

updated above.

Do you just want to shoot, or something else?

Rapid Shot, go! *croses fingers*

She does still have a full-round left, since the mount's move isn't actually Volley's, right? If not, just shoot normally.

To make a full attack you need to see the enemy the whole time. In this case you didnt.

Ah.

Volley shifts her grip on the bow to her off-hand as a free action, attempts an overrun over the small creature, accepting the AoO.

If she succeeds, she'll continue the move to base the other creature, drawing her dagger in her other hand for an AoO when it finishes casting/manifesting.

When it rains...well, they're still summoned, so...

Volley moves back into the center of the sewer, accepting the AoOs but riding for cover if needed, draws the wand of CLW[CL 1] and uses it. Continue moving back from the creatures and riding for cover for 5 rounds, or until they disapper, whichever occurs first. Continue healing until back to full hp, then stow the wand. If the other creature appears during this time while I don't have the wand out, attempt single shots against it while moving back. During this time, if I don't have the wand out, ready to shoot the summoner on sight.

do you want to try the overrun again, or something else?

Yeah, try the overrun/draw dagger for AoO tactic again. Quickest way to negate that annoying creature-cover.

Should I wait for the 'updated above' post?

If not, drop dagger and Rapid Shot w/Divine Might at main target, accepting AoOs.

Also, upon looking at my sheet, I didn't actually buy a CL2 scroll of magic weapon...just CL1s. It should run out. Sorry.
