This one picks up right where the last fight fell apart. The death counter reads Scoti 19, Basket 7, and both of them are running back into the Zepharin Pharaoh's boss room to grab whatever gear they can reach. A mob with a bow has come all the way out of its booth to meet them. Basket is missing a helmet and the good sword, and the really good stuff is in the lava, so that part is a lost cause.
Gear runs
The gear runs cost more than they get back. Basket catches fire, and chat reads "BasketMC was slain by Blaze." Then "Obelisk 2 has been deactivated" comes up and the Pharaoh still isn't vulnerable. Their guess is that too much time passed between switching off the first obelisk and the third. Scoti goes down soon after, which makes it 20 to 8. The Pharaoh keeps calling in help, and one of them sums it up: "It's not cool when the popular people pick on you."
They sort out where everything is. One pile of gear is over by obelisk two, a good bow and arrows are by obelisk one, and a chest up top has some armor and a pick. Somebody floats building a railroad from the checkpoint.
Swimming in lava
They split up, one heading to obelisk two and the other to three. The Pharaoh is camped right next to one of the piles of dropped gear. Obelisk 3 goes down, and the Pharaoh gets close enough to complain about it. "The pain ... I can feel it." Then Basket ends up in the lava. "BasketMC tried to swim in lava." A pair of boots is lost for good this time.
A bed and the hate plate
Back at the chests, they finally remember something: they could carry a bed in and set their spawn near the boss room. That would mean "a lot less running around." One of them turns some string into a single piece of wool. The chest also holds the chestplate they've been calling the hate plate, which gives Strength II while your health is below five hearts. Basket takes it, along with iron leggings with Protection III.
There's another buff to the left of the throne, a red one neither of them has tried. It turns out to be Strength.
We need a third player
They try to split the obelisks again and it goes sideways. "Three has been deactivated. What? No, no, no!" Two people for three obelisks is the problem. "We do need a third player!" One of them runs back to hit the last one, and the Pharaoh is finally open to damage.
This time it works. "You have reduced the Pharaoh's health to 50%." Right after, chat reads "Scoti_Garbidis was slain by Zepharin_Pharaoh." Scoti respawns and brings back the bed from spawn so they can set it up nearby. Basket's plan until then is simple: don't die.
The episode ends with the Pharaoh at half health and the counter at Scoti 21, Basket 9. The monument still has 2 of 16 crystals and 2 of 12 emerald blocks.
