Roll: "1d20+4+2;1d20+4;1d6+4", Note: "Vanguard's Lighting vs Swarm Q (w/Combat Adv.), Swarm X".  That way I can see the +2 in the roll part and look at the note to see where it came from... or when I see "Combat Adv." in the note part, I can look at the roll and see you didn't forget the +2.  (Definitely don't sweat this if you forget, but if you remember it helps.)[/sblock]The invoker's lightning blast badly scorches the swarms, instantly killing a dozen or so vipers from each group.  They instinctively try to move away from the source of the pain.  The group that is pinned by the warden's whirlwind is too disoriented to do more than writhe in place, but the other slithers rapidly away from the hut, seeking to punish whatever hurt them.  They pour past Papolstaanas and swarm over Jynxx!// The swarm uses Survival Instinct (immediate reaction triggered by being hit by an area or close attack) to shift 3 squares, to S11, entering Jynxx's space.     (Good thing the other cannot shift due to warden's grasp!)[sblock=Swarm...]Glossary: "A swarm is composed of multiple creatures but functions as a single creature. A swarm can occupy the same space as another creature, and an enemy can enter a swarm’s space, which is difficult terrain. A swarm cannot be pulled, pushed, or slid by melee or ranged attacks. A swarm can squeeze through any opening large enough for even one of its constituent creatures. For example, a swarm of bats can squeeze through any opening large enough for one of the bats to squeeze through."(The rules don't say anything about changes to attacking a swarm that is in another creature's space so it just works normally, there is no chance to hit Jynxx or anything like that.  The swarm does have concealment now since it's in a smoke square... but I'd think neither Jynxx nor it have concealment from each other when they're in the same square.  I also think being in the same square counts as an "adjacent square" for most purposes, i.e. if Jynxx moved from that square without shifting, that would count as moving from an adjacent square and provoke an opportunity attack.[/sblock]</blockquote>
