[QUOTE="RoughCoronet0, post: 9311782, member: 7031665"] I’d down either the Cleric or Wizard, depending on initiative order, then when the Rogue or Fighter downs my creature, activate its Mythic feature to up the BBEG and have it use its Mythic Reaction to use the save attack again on the other caster. Then I watch as the two martials begin to panic as they face down a fully healed BBEG while their casters our down. 🙂 In all seriousness, it really depends. What kind of monster is the BBEG? What is its movements types and distances? What other actions, bonus actions, or reactions does it possess. Does it have access to spells, and has it used any already? If it has, has it cast enough spells to gauge whether the wizard has counterspell? Does it have Legendary Resistance, Legendary Actions, or Lair Actions. Any summon or minion features? Is it a Mythic monster? What about personalities and ideals/flaws? Would it be the sort to flee and plan for a future confrontation or would it stand its ground regardless of the odds? Has it’s plans been thrawted or will be thwarted with its death, or will standing its ground and distracting the party even one round longer better ensure its plan succeeds even if it perished?
