[QUOTE="FormerlyHemlock, post: 6636674, member: 6787650"] Yeah, you obviously didn't actually read #284, or didn't understand it. Good luck with that tactic--the PCs in that party outrange the dragon unless you do something stupid like claiming that dropped rocks have arbitrarily high range. Even the skeletons are doing 19.13 DPR to the dragon at long range/in the dark, much less the actual PCs. (In the dark is actually better for the PCs--cast Light on a pebble, give it to an air elemental, have it shadow the dragon--voila! advantage for all the archers because they can see the dragon and not vice versa.) If you waste your time dropping rocks you'll be half-dead or worse after forty-two seconds from the skeletons alone, and then you'll have to run away back to your lair. In return you'll have killed a couple of skeletons, and maybe made the party's Inspired Leader spend a few more minutes giving a pep talk. Details upon request. [/QUOTE]
