[QUOTE="Drakknyte32, post: 1456232, member: 16580"] Alright Fieari I'm sure your tired of my complaining but I really have to say this. I can accept that I would not get there while the wizards were asleep or preparing for the day. Like you said, it's hard to navigate underground. I can accept that you made me rise out of the ground and show myself when I got to the city despite the fact that I had mentioned in two different posts that I would be hiding and that it forced me to rethink my entire plan. It was a very dramatic entrance and a fairly draconic thing to do. I can accept that somehow everyone, even the old and children, were able to respond so quickly to my attack that I didn't have time to raid a few houses for temporary Hp's. Any good general would have preparations in place for a raid against his city. I can accept that my opponents were able to somehow able to discern precisely where I would be next in the entire city. And that they had time to arrive there before me despite my insane move speed and lack of obstacles. I don't know how they did this, and I'm really jealous of the skill on good's side, but they obviously did something very impressive that I still can't figure out. Although I'm definately trying. But there is one thing I can't accept. One thing that I mentioned twice in my initial strategy and asked you about twice since I died. You didn't respond to either question so I ask it once more here. [B]Why didn't I run away.[/B] My actions since turning into a ghost have focused on caution. When moving I spend much of my time in a place where nobody can see or reach me. When I attack it is only against creatures that don't know I'm there. Whenever I'm faced with a challenging opponent or an unsure scenario I run away immediately. So why did you have me use my breath weapon on that invisible creature? Invisibility is a wizards spell. If you had mentioned the invisibility before the positive energy I would have assumed it was one of the wizards. So would Deathbringer, and Deathbringer would have gone underground and moved away, period. I might not have noticed them underground for some reason but when I got aboveground and sensed the invisible guy I should have moved underground again. Sure sounds like a way to counter me. If you had posted that they were reacting incredibly quickly and someone invisible was just in front of me, I would not have said to use the breath weapon. I would have said retreat. You said that I used my breath weapon before I was killed. If I could use my breath weapon that means they don't have a readied action to kill me and I could have used my standard action to move instead. At the very least I could have turned ethereal. I'm sorry that I won't let this topic go but this is the one thing that most likely would have saved my life. Like I said above, I've mentioned this twice previously and both times you didn't give me any answer. Not even a "Because I said so." Please just answer this and I'll go quietly to my grave. [/QUOTE]
