[QUOTE="Prickly Pear, post: 7930310, member: 6877470"] The only thing Sesto can do to give anyone advantage is using Guiding Bolt. That provides advantage for the next attack but it is provided the Bolt hits, which is not easy with disadvantage for Sesto. Other things that can help is: [LIST] [*]Bless; 1d4 to attack rolls and saving throws, concentration. [*]Protection from Evil and Good; attack has disadvantage on one creature, + can't be frightened etc, concentration. [*]Blindness/Deafness; Con save by dragon every turn but has disadvantage on attacks and whatnot. [*]Enhance Ability; for example... adv Con saves which is good against breath weapon, up to 3 people, concentration. [*]Silence; Don't think this will slow the dragon in any way... [*]Beacon of Hope; adv on Wis saves and Death saves, and max healing, concentration. [*]Bestow Curse; Wis save for dragon or be cursed, such as wis save to loose its action, concentration. [*]Banihment; ... [*]Guardian of Faith; may deal up to 60HP damage (10 or 20 HP damage depending on a save and has to be within 10' of the guardian). I don't think it will stay there very long. [*]Channel Divinity - Turn Undead; wis save to be frightened for 1 min or until it takes damage. Not very useful since we want to kill it. [*]Death Ward; when you hit 0Hp, you will instead have 1HP. Maybe good for Sesto so he can continue to heal people. [/LIST] What's best of all these? I could throw a few Blindness/Deafness at the dragon, which it might choose to ignore and thereby using up his resistance but that might take a few rounds. I was thinking that Sesto will do what Kalorn is doing. First cast Spirit Guardians and then go in close and whack the dragon with Spiritual Weapon (still active) plus Inflict Wounds or his mace (I wonder if the dragon is vulnerable to bludgeon damage like smelliest are?). Any suggestions? [/QUOTE]
