Your character mind does not phase out of existence whet it is not your turn. Follow everyone's actions and try to prepare yours in advance as much as possible. Yes, sometimes a characters turn before yours can turn that whole battle upside down, but mostly it just requires change of a target for spell/attack/heal/CC.If you have summon X spells, have your monsters pre-written up so you do not need to waste time flipping through MM every time.Yes, sometimes there is a need for a monster that is not regular for the specific situation, but that is an exception.</blockquote>
