[QUOTE="Shalimar, post: 4285577, member: 9600"] It may not affect your role as a defender much, but it does affect the striker role (especially rogue), and the controller role even more then that. Here is a better example: Init: Mal 22, Mira 17, Angel 19, Dragon 15 Mal and Angel attack the dragon their turn (posted before Mira), Mira uses her encounter power to Daze the dragon until the end of her next turn. 2nd Round, Mira attacks (first to post) after Mira is done, the Dragon is no longer dazed, so it doesn't grant combat advantage to Mal and Angel. Depending on what they are trying to do, losing that simply because of positing order is a major thing. 2nd example: Same situation as above, only this time, Mira attacks first, then Mal or Angel Daze the Dragon. 2nd Round, the person who dazes the dragon posts first ending the daze. At this point the combat advantage from the Daze is gone, and Mira doesn't get to use her sneak attack for the +2d6 damage. Very big problem. For those of us whose roles' depend on this stuff, it is crippling. [/QUOTE]
