[QUOTE="drothgery, post: 5983506, member: 360"] I don't know the adventure details (and don't we have half a paladin, and so half a divine caster?), but as we've already been through, Sariel's a perfectly capable healer. The other big thing divine casters are good for are [LIST] [*]being the radiant mafia, which really helps when fighting undead (and some other creatures with that vulnerability), but this is Revenge of Giants, not Revenge of the Vampires or Revenge of the Zombies, right? So that shouldn't be a serious problem. [*]knowing about religion. Sariel is trained in the skill, though, and quite smart, so knowing esoteric religous lore is not unlikely for her. [/LIST]I'd figure missing any kind of controller is a bigger issue than missing an arcane caster specifically. No one's got the huge area of effect thing of most dedicated controllers going on, and dishing out debuffs is the other controller schtick. Again, though [LIST] [*]a sorcerer and a half can go a long way for area of effect blasting [*]IIRC, monks are pretty good at debuffing [*]and Sariel is a quite competent ritualist, even if what she's got in her ritual book is mostly healing-oriented [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
