Solo's especially have a hard time justifying the <u>standard action</u> it takes to make an attack that will probably fail and would do no damage even if it didn't.</p></p> <p style="text-align: left"></span></span></span></span></span></p><p style="text-align: left"><span style="font-family: 'MentorSansStd'"><span style="font-size: 9px"><span style="font-family: 'MentorSansStd'"><span style="font-size: 9px"><span style="font-size: 10px">Even so I like the power as it is cinematic. One of the first times the rogue used this power it was to climb on the back of a Drider whose only defence was to retreat about 100ft up the wall of the chamber into its deep bank of webs that stretched across the ceiling, once there it could concentrate on its passanger alone.</p></p> <p style="text-align: left"></span></span></span></span></span></p><p style="text-align: left"><span style="font-family: 'MentorSansStd'"><span style="font-size: 9px"><span style="font-family: 'MentorSansStd'"><span style="font-size: 9px"><span style="font-size: 10px">If you really have a problem with the power (as a DM) remember that the creature can always try to disengage from the fight, forcing the rogue to make the hard decision of continuing to attack and being separated from his party, or jumping off and regrouping.</p> </p><p></span><p style="text-align: left"><p style="text-align: left"></p> </p><p></span><p style="text-align: left"></p><p></span><p style="text-align: left"></p><p></span><p style="text-align: left"></p><p></span><p style="text-align: left"></p> <p style="text-align: left"></p></blockquote><p></p>
