[QUOTE="UngeheuerLich, post: 9465136, member: 59057"] There is the mistake. Ok. No. Minions are killed with area effects. See above. You are the one arguing that favoured foe is better although the way you use it you can just leave it away as the difference is neglegible over your adventuring day. Nope. You use it. But correctly. Mark the big baddie. Nope. Better use conjure barrage than hitting them. That is not how math works. 4 vs 1 kills the one guy faster than 2 vs 1. Focua firing and not focus firing make big differences. And it is easier to focus fire on ranged attacks which conveniently usually leave your bonus action free. You are really mixing up average and actual kills. Assume 4 foes with 40 hp. Assume PCs with 10 damage. In a 1 vs 1 it take 4 rounds to kill one enemy. Non focus fire means no matter how big the party, every foe lives 4 rounds. Then all die at once. No HM shifting. If you all focus one enemy, every round one foe dies.
