[QUOTE="pemerton, post: 6089373, member: 42582"] I had the same response as [MENTION=6706099]Sage Genesis[/MENTION] on reading your initial post about this. Having read your reply, there's still one thing I'm missing - were the healer's healing you when you weren't down a full surge (+ bonus dice etc) of hit points? If not, then I don't see how they killed you, as you would have had even fewer hit points when struck by the elite and minion than you did, and would have died. If they were, then I don't see the [I]surge[/I] issue as such - I see sub-optimal play. Of course spending surges for less than their full value is going to hurt you (which is exactly why you took the very reasonable decision to finish your short rest a few hit points down). There are other reasons not to have three healers in a party of nine PCs - let's have more strikers, please, to try and keep things moving! - but being "healed to death" isn't one of them. [/QUOTE]
