[QUOTE="Chaosmancer, post: 9025188, member: 6801228"] And the ranged character can increase the distance. That is known as "kiting". And if you are doing solo play, and have the range to completely out range your opponent, you likely have the range to make multiple turns of attacks. Most enemies aren't major threats after you've had six free turns to shoot them. But they are for the rest of the party. And if you have sharpshooter a barrier is only effective if it is total cover. And if your enemy has total cover from you... you have total cover from them. Additionally, Roofs are a thing. Those are barriers to the sky. As are trees. Or are we assuming a perfectly flat plain with only grass and a wall. You are absolutely correct. Which is why Find Familiar is so useful, with its tiny flying creature that can get into hard to reach places and is a 1st level ritual. Additionally, there is the small matter of the REST OF THE PARTY who cannot get to that hard to reach place. "Well, the flier will tie a rope-" cool, just like a familiar can. [/QUOTE]
