[QUOTE="pukunui, post: 7494491, member: 54629"] Technically it's a party of six, but one player wasn't present, so neither was his PC. Yes, pretty much straight. I don't remember the exact order in which he used his spells, but I've noted that he used [I]power word kill[/I] twice, [I]maze[/I] once, [I]chain lightning[/I] once, and [I]disintegrate[/I] once. He also used [I]counterspell[/I] several times, along with [I]ray of frost[/I] and [I]shocking grasp[/I]. I had him use [I]maze[/I] on the raging barbarian who was resisting all attempts at being paralyzed. The barbarian couldn't make the Intelligence check to find his way out so ended up being stuck there until the spell ran out. He used both [I]power word kills[/I] on the paladin who was smiting him painfully. The first time it didn't work, the second time it did. [I]Chain lightning[/I] wasn't all that effective. The rogue, for instance, didn't take any damage thanks to Evasion. [I]Disintegrate[/I] didn't work all that well either. I kept trying to find a way for him to make use of [I]time stop[/I], but there really isn't a lot he can do with it with his default spell selection. If he had some more buffs or some way of healing himself, [I]time stop[/I] would've been much more useful. In terms of his Legendary Actions, he used [I]Talisman of the Sphere[/I] plus an At-Will spell most rounds. I had him use Disrupt Life once, when there were numerous PCs within 20 feet of him. In retrospect, I should have had him attempt to use his staff's Invoke Curse action, as that would've made [I]finger of death[/I] and [I]circle of death[/I] more effective. [/QUOTE]
