[QUOTE="Pinotage, post: 2102232, member: 15194"] I think it's fine due to limited circumstances where you can actually use it, combined with the fact that it provides cover. In one not-so-recent scenario in my game, the PCs were attempting to prevent an enemy from escaping. The Wizard cast web, and centred it on the enemy, giving him total cover from the PCs. He was standing right next to a window at the time, so he smashed that to pieces in a bid to escape. The PCs heard the glass break and quickly dispelled to web before catching him with Hold Person. It might render them immobile but it doesn't kill them, similar to spells like confusion - they're prevented from acting but not dead. Why bother using Web and Fireball when you can just Fireball to start with? ;) Pinotage [/QUOTE]
