Can they attack as they are also trying to flee? I ask because panicked gives a -2 attack, so why would it give you a minus to attack if you can't fight while panicked? The panicked description says you drop your weapon...so I'm a little confused.The panicked description also says you can use abilities and spells to help you flee. I take that as only being able to use spells that help you get out of the area faster (like expiditious retreat, haste, fly, or teleport). Is that correct? Or can you cast spells like Sanctuary to help protect you while you're fleeing? Can you use abilities like Rage or do the abilities also have to be movement type spells?</blockquote>
