[QUOTE="Ahnehnois, post: 6149767, member: 17106"] Trying to grapple a creature that can teleport without spending an action would have been rather pointless, except in that it would have exposed the druid to being sneak attacked with the rogue's light weapons. I didn't have wall of thorns handy, but even if I had, I doubt it would have contained them for very long, and the monk had high AC and DR/magic that would have rendered the damage irrelevant for him anyway, and monk and ranger had high Str. Also, all of them had ref saves and evasion, and several of them had other resistances, making area damage a pretty pointless exercise. I did try an area damage force spell, but it didn't do enough. I also tried flying and shooting down from above, which didn't work because of the blink dog, and then transformed into a tendriculos, which has regeneration that I thought would help, until the monk and his bludgeoning attacks bypassed that and completely wasted him in one round. I didn't have much time (in character) to think about this one, but challenging 10th level characters that are mostly martial and have little magic is hard, even if you use magic to do it. [/QUOTE]
