[QUOTE="Mustrum_Ridcully, post: 5989677, member: 710"] The character has the Daily available: He sees that there could be an opportunity to use it and direct his allies. Later that day, he no longer has that Daily avaialble - he sees no opportunity for using that ability and does direct his allies to different choices according to the options he has now. Because the situation just doesn't come up, or not in a manner he feels he can use it. He may still see something where he could have used a particular trick, but he realizes he can't because the timing is off and he's not fast enough this time - he may even think that he was faster in the morning, but in the end, it doesn't matter, he knows he can't do it this time. The character doesn't have control about all the whys, but he can see when something has a chance to work and when it doesn't. Towards the end of the day, after having used several dailies, the character may note that he must be exhausted or out of luck - some near opportunities for his best tricks, but he was always off with the timing and footing so it could never really work. For all we know, each missed attack by the character is actually him trying to use a maneuver associated with a daily power - but he just can't get it done and fails completely (so completely that even the usual Miss Effect or Effects don't happen).
