[QUOTE="Rackhir, post: 5643771, member: 149"] They don't come into play 'till the big fight, but things like them are essentially always just window dressing. They may make things somewhat easier when the big fight comes, but they never determine the outcome on their own. From what I've observed, their real effect is almost always after the fight and how things play out once the main battle is decided. Like with the Tsunami we created to wipe out the main aberration army. It made precisely no difference to the outcome of the fight or what happened with the battle in the Silver Flame chamber, but it did mean that the main aberration army was shattered and didn't threaten anything else once it was all done. Another good example is the Planetar we went to a fair amount of trouble to summon with the staff we got from the dragon. He was removed as a factor in the fight essentially immediately. I'm not sure exactly how things would have played out afterward with Aunty (the Daelkyr), but if we had won that fight, it might have been him coming out with Aunty's head, instead of the other way around. i suspect that we are about 2 posts, maybe 1 from my second favorite moment of the campaign though. Shil is quite busy with a summer course he's teaching for at least another week or two. So I wouldn't expect an update any time real soon. [/QUOTE]
