Glad you asked.It all came down to the cleric's summoned thoqqua.Summoned right next to the roper, so if it tried to use its strands (a ranged attack) it'd grant the thoqqua an AoO.The ranger, who was sneaking ahead, was drained to Str 0 in 2 rounds (surprise round + round 1).The wizard/rogue tried using daze on the creature, but the spell resistance blocked it (I described it so the player would realize it was some resistance to spells, not just a successful save).The cleric threw alchemist's fire on the round the roper was still reeling the ranger in.But then she summoned the thoqqua, while the other characters kept throwing oil at the thing.Thoqqua = 1d6 bash + 2d6 fire. Against a roper that's 1d6 + 4d6 per attack! And the rope tried to bite it back, only to suffer 2d6 itself! The ranger player was rolling for the thoqqa, and managed to get quite some hits in.It certainly helped that these players went through Sunless Citadel, and almost died facing a thoqqua there...</blockquote>
