She can use those to parry, increasing her AC 17 by +1d6 each time someone attacks her with a melee weapon. Add on advantage for any magic save, and half damage from most elemental damage, and she's a tough combatant (as she should be.)But the cantrip shocking grasp does paltry damage, and also stops the target from taking reactions. That's huge when fighting a marilith! Even better for the heroes, she doesn't get to try and parry the spell attack, because it's not a melee attack.This works, right? I'm not missing something simple?</blockquote>
