[QUOTE="tetrasodium, post: 8718659, member: 93670"] not so much, it shouldn't be assumed that the target you want to attack is obbious enough. I have one player who consistently says things like "I move up & attack the zombie" leading to "uh... which one? red green blue or white ring? there are four" followed by a hair pulling exercise of "the one he attacked">"which he? Bob & dave attacked different ones">"which one is more damaged?">"You aren't sure at this point, do you want to use your action trying to determine that or pick one?">"well I attack the one next to bob">"three of them are next to bob... red blue or white ring?">"well which one is closer to me?">"well if we look with our eyes we can see that the red ring one is closest to you on the map">"so is the red one damaged?">"^$@#% would you like to use your action trying to determine that?">"no I guess I'll move up to attack the red zombie">"ok the green skeleton leans in with his rusty necrotic energy dripping sword to smack you & makes an AoO as you run past it & xx is a hit">"woah I wouldn't have moved like that if I knew he was in the path, I would have gone around">"Maybe but you didn't*" This player is also one who is extremely prone to making quantum skill check efforts like that rather than actually taking any action *I run in person with a touch enabled tvbox & vtt. Players can literally trace their finger along the plexi & show me the route they want to take but this guy often can't be bothered to even lean forward to look at the screen. [/QUOTE]
