[QUOTE="Derren, post: 4554506, member: 2518"] And I would be annoyed when the DM makes exactly that. Running a monster like a moron just so that the players get an easy win is extremely lame. A big part of the enjoyment I get from RPGs is solving problems with my character un a fantasy world. And that means that its my and the other players duty to find a way out of this situation. The DM should not solve this challenge for the PCs by letting the dragon act like an idiot, because its arrogant or some other lame and overused excuse. About the spell, I wouldn't allow it to affect a flying creature. The spell is very specific in what it does. Sadly the "Say yes" principle seems to get turned more and more into "don't think about it, just roll" where only the rules text matter and nothing else. To those who think that the spell should affect the dragon, would you also allow the Grease spell in 3E to trip a flying creature? [/QUOTE]
