[QUOTE="Darkwing Duck, post: 6833393, member: 6805686"] So, the enemy has to, from 60' away, close into melee and attack on round 1. There aren't a lot of enemies who can do that. One is usually sufficient. The enemies do have my allies to contend with as well, after all. The issue is enemy closing into melee to attack. What scenario are you thinking of here? But, you could have. The fact that you could have built your character to get the best bang out of Misty Step, but chose not to, makes your character irrelevant to the discussion. Which is why the bard needs to be mobile, something Misty Step gives him and Shield doesn't. Mine do too. I was attacked from ambush by a land shark, been ambushed by enemy who disguised themselves as petrified adventurers, been attacked by a teleporting roper in a pitch dark room, and other fun times. Misty Step was a lot more helpful than Shield (which our Wizard was using) in those situations. You're wrong here, too. But, my DM has discovered that it was Charm Person (with the command "protect me") supported with Cutting Words on the save that has helped where Misty Step failed (or Shield would have failed).
