The wizard alerted all of the enemies, without hindering or incapacitating any of them.I mentioned that the wizard was level 10, earlier. And sure, the fighter will take out a couple of them per round, but it's still 12 against 2 after the archers are down. Assuming one of those archers was also the healer, it's going to be a very close fight. (It seems unlikely that the fighter will die in this scenario, but it's entirely possible that the rest of the party would go down, which is practically a TPK in many instances.)This is a medium-hard encounter for this party. Treating it like an easy encounter (by using Fireball) can make it harder than it needs to be.</blockquote>
