[QUOTE="Mistwell, post: 7677230, member: 2525"] If the dispute as outlined in the post I was replying to is as described, where the Player expects a CR 1 creature with certain abilities, and the DM expects a CR 1/4 creature with accordingly lesser abilities, then yes I think the player and DM have an issue that needs to be resolved. I am saying it's a sign there is a general issue at play with that situation. But I am not saying it's necessarily the player's issue, or "issues" as in "psychological issues". If you cast a spell where Player X expects result Z, and DM Y expects result A, and the difference between Z and A is vast and a serious issue for fun in the game for one or both people, then those two people have an issue that needs to be addressed - an issue that is much more about style of play and gaming preferences in general in my opinion than it is about that single rule. If you took that as condescending I am sorry, that was not my intent. Can you tell me what words I used that you felt read that way? [URL="http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?465659-New-Sage-Advice-Class-Features-Combat-Spells-amp-Monsters/page8&p=6671923&viewfull=1#post6671923"]Here is the post[/URL]. I'd prefer to know what kinds of things I am saying that come across as condescending so I can try and not do it again in the future. Help me out here, I promise I won't simply outright get defensive and dispute what you have to say. I am listening to what you have to say. [/QUOTE]
