They use the same tactics over and over, so it's quite easy for the BBEG or his important henchmen to plan around those tactics. If the opponent has no way of knowing the way the party fights, then I plan using the best tactics available to the opponent. IE Giants hurl lots of heavy objects from a distance, Ogre Magi strafe with Cone of Cold, elves use camoflage and hide abilities to snipe from the woods, etc.When I play, I usually am the one to come up with the plans for the party. In 3ed, I tend to play rangers that take the Archery route at 2nd level, so I'm more of a sniper. It really annoys the DM when I'm able to get into position in the first round and start sniping from a tree. With the right feats and equipment, I'm a +10 to hit by third or fourth level. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f631.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":o" title="Eek!    :o"  data-smilie="9"data-shortname=":o" /></blockquote>
