[QUOTE="Prism, post: 6631251, member: 9501"] My math is the same as yours, I just didn't add the bless directly :). My point really is though with less than 50% chance to hit, even with advantage you are still likely to miss a few of those shots. If you don't take the sharpshooter penalty you hit more often and might well do as much damage. All against a high AC dragon of course. Against something softer I'm in total agreement how useful it is, but then the easy stuff shouldn't be that important at these levels anyway I took resilient too - its pretty rubbish to be honest. I have a +7 wis save vs typical DCs of over 20. Better than nothing but not reliable. I'm often out of the fight for a round or two due to hold monster or something similar. And you don't need to worry about advantage because of foresight ;) It actually can be quite tricky to get at high levels when so much stuff has truesight or in the dragons case enough breath weapon damage to disrupt every concentration spell in play. I know our rogue finds it almost impossible to hide within a combat situation. And if our wizard took foresight instead of gate or wish we would struggle [/QUOTE]
