[QUOTE="Ancoulainn, post: 9872408, member: 7056539"] Let me refer you back to the wording of the spell. It says "The suggestion [B]must sound[/B] achievable". It does [B]not [/B]say "The suggestion [B]must be[/B] achievable." So, none of that is relevant in any way after it has been been shown that it generally can be done. If you want to rule based on "The Charmed target pursues the suggestion to the best of its ability" and say that the creature lacked the ability to achieve it that's a possibility as I said before. But that's grasping at straws at this point. Rules that you made up and want to dictate for everyone else as the default. How about you rule at your table how you like to play it, leave other people to play the way they want, and stop acting like you knew better than anybody else what the "default rules" are? I've suggested now multiple time that we could just agree to disagree, but you just can't have that, can you? There was no change in your tone since your first posting to me, except that you sound more and more desperate. But neither has bothered me the least bit. I would have to be personally invested to care. To clarify, the only reason why I am pushing back is because I don't tolerate anyone dictating to others what is right or wrong or default or normal in a game or anywhere else when it hurts no one. That applies to you in the same manner as I applied to the other guy. Everyone decides those things for themselves and bullying is a no-go! That's how the game is intended to be played, at least according to the designers, and especially in niche areas like individual spell interactions and not core class mechanics or core build features. It's not like I stated that Extra Attack would stack or that Rangers don't need to maintain concentration on Hunter's Mark, even though most agree that they should have been designed this way. I don't condone bossing others around when it comes to lifestyle choices and I don't condone that in any other area of life where people stick their noses where they don't belong. And given that you couldn't leave it alone after I suggested multiple times that we should agree to disagree illustrates that this is exactly the issue here. I didn't suggest that for no reason. After all, you had already stated your opinion and had no reason to continue unless that was your goal. What you think is default, right, or wrong or whatever is immaterial to me. I don't know you and I don't play with you. I literally couldn't care less! But this attitude is a problem by principle. [/QUOTE]
