[QUOTE="Hecabus, post: 715275, member: 9360"] [b]Combat Duration[/b] I guess I wasn't too clear.... Combats have been lasting for large amounts of rounds. Last night's game involved two combats. One was an ambush by a higher level Druid in his grove with all his creatures and tons of buff spells for his animals. (The party thought he was an ally since he helped them kill a dragon in his forest using drugs out of the Book of Vile Things and a few low level spells.) They sat there and watched the Druid cast bunches of spells (Animal Growth, Barkskin, Aura of Vitality, Bear's Heart and Nature's Favor) and then watched as he cast Firestorm on them. I love when a plan goes off. They thought he was going to help them claim an island. The first combat consisted of the 7 players, a 13th level Druid, an awakened Dire Bear, Boar, Tiger, Dire Eagle, 4 Ravens, 4 Dryads and 3 Treants. This combat lasted over 20 rounds, with only the Psuedo Dragon surviving because of his fire protection and flying. He came back the next day and finished off the treants and dryads and chased down the bear who was going to get the Druid resurrected. The second combat was against the party's druid's ex-animal companion. I gave them an awakened hollow dire bear with double HD and 6 levels of fighter to fight right after the group got resurrected. This combat lasted probably 15 rounds or so. [/QUOTE]
