We played 'Night Below' and decided to all play Wood Elves from the same village. Most of us I believe had never really played one before and we thought it would be fun......it wasn't for our DM.Having a lengthy pour thru the Elven Handbook we discovered that all elves had this rapid shot ability with bows and all of us were equipped with bows of one sort or another. Now at 1st glance this ability wasn't that great at all as it gave you iterative attacks so in all likely hood we were missing 3 outta 5 shots. However when you combine the elven rapid shot ability, the firetrap arrows that were also in the same handbook, grenade rules, lots of enemies and a cramped environment such as a tunnel, 4 elven archers all of a sudden became freakin' death machines: that's 20 shots that upon hitting do bow and firetrap damage to the creature in question AND fire damage to all adjacent squares and any misses did fire damage to all 9 squares where it landed!!!!!!  <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/devious.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":]" title="Devious    :]" data-shortname=":]" /> Our DM soon got p****d off with that trick and started restricting our druids acces to that spell. Man it was sick!</blockquote>
