[QUOTE="Thornir Alekeg, post: 4159175, member: 15651"] OK, I see your logic here. Of course I would simply say that this is an encounter with an environmental hazard (maybe it would be a house rule, or maybe this will be part of the design, we'll see in June). As a result, the cleric can use his power, and the Eladrin can Fey Step part of the way across. Eventually the people of the world will learn that their benevolent DM overpower defines encounters to be more than just fighting. Peace will break out across the world and there will no longer be any combat encounters for the PCs to face. For you maybe, but I'm fine with the design heading in the direction they are taking it. I want to play in a fantasy role playing game, not a world simulator. I'm more than willing to suspend my disbelief over encounter powers or daily powers, just like I'm willing to suspend it over magic spells, fire-breathing dragons and chainmail bikinis that offer real protection from cutting weapons.
