[QUOTE="Helldritch, post: 6935503, member: 6855114"] I don't think anyone here accused you of being bad. Far from it. I believe Hemlock put the quotation mark were there to make sure of that. Just by looking at the knowledge you display it is obvious that you know your stuff. But do not assume that a DM is easy on his players. I would not hesitate to TPK for a second if the group played any less than the quality I expect from them. If a group does too many mistakes, boom! TPK. And what the hell do you have against doing your laundry???? A clean wizard underwear makes for a happy wizard. Especialy when the laundry is made with a cantrip ;) Once the laundry is done. Said wizards will get in and mop clean the dungeon (or die in it if they're careless). That scenario can happen but a party of wizards would not rely on situation combos but on general combos. Killed a few ogres? Animate some and cast haste on one of them if needed. Chances are that it will do more dmg than you think. Domination of a strong ennemy? Boost him and send him against his friends etc... Hypnotic pattern + circular firewall can do wonders too, the ennemy will get no save to get out of the circle. It is a sure 10d8 fire dmg and more if they failed to get the courage to pass through the wall. And that "combo" is generic enough to be done quite often. More over, said combos might get prepared after scouting with arcane eyes, familiars with invisibility, divination magic and many other ways including the charming of an enemy scout and asking your new friend the layout of what he knows of the dungeon. That is why that the concentrating wizard won't be the target of the spell that could be disrupted. Both Bladesigners would be buffed by the necro and the summoner if needed or required. You seem to think in terms of one wizard. There are four of them. Some good defensive spells don't even need concentration. Again you think in terms of one wizard. With so many of them, I can assure you that they will all prepare misty steps or maybe only the bladesingers. And they can always prepare their reaction with misty step or the wall of force depending on the situation. Ex: " I prepare my wall of force to go when X get out of there" or "I don't attack, I'll cast dimension door when the wall of force is up" The bladesingers can even use the dodge action and one of the other will say "I cast Cloud kill once the last bladesinger is out of the wall of force". On that, I fully agree with you. [/QUOTE]
