[QUOTE="Dr. NRG, post: 508844, member: 7697"] A whole lot of us have undoubtedly played a few spellcasters to high enough level to have cast a silenced dispel magic. Anyone out there actually memorized and cast one? Based on my experience, I'm guessing it's pretty darn rare. I have been on both the giving and receiving end of an area silence spell, however. The best option is almost always to get out of the area. Blackrazor, many wands require a vocal command to invoke, and cannot be activated in a silence spell. howandwhy, I believe you can target a specific effect with a dispel magic, preventing endangering your own buff spells if you target an effect on yourself rather than targeting yourself as a whole. To the original poster, what is it about the tactical situation that your NPCs have trouble dealing with? Does the party have blindsight, or some other method of taking advantage of the "terrain" they have created? If not, perhaps you should turn the tactic against them and use it on their spellcasters sometimes. ed - grammar [/QUOTE]
