[QUOTE="Cameron, post: 3633884, member: 52735"] From the top of your quote down: The OP only claimed fiendish apes after he was told that he was wrong. It could be baboons for all we know. Mountains and molehills, you know, to bolster his claim. After his initial attacks (break games, etc., etc.) I am suspicious of anything he claims. The OP calls it Aspect of Bahamut and "Phastial Killer". His DM, who posted here, did not. It could be a known spell under a different name. I know I allow things like Energy Daggers instead of Magic Missile, and, oh, I don't know, Kord's xxxx Fist instead of Bigby's xxxx Hand. Given that Phantasmal Killer (which is probably what the OP meant) does not do ability damage, I am of the opinion that he made it up or deliberately "misconstrued" it. Seriously, if the OP does not even know the spells in the PHB (especially the effects of something with the name Phantasmal *Killer*) after a year of playing, he is either seriously deficient in the IQ department, or he is making things up, and I would like to give him the benefit of the doubt and not assume he is deficient. That is like saying he thinks Power Word Kill makes you lose Strength! The thing is, he didn't ask the guy. He came here with suspicions, start throwing accusations and then got told he is being a fool. He did this behind the player's back and his DM has to come here to defend the player and his decisions. Sure, the DM might have erred in giving the player so much stuff, but that is up to the DM, not the OP. Note that he did *not* want to know how the guy did it. If he did, he would have talked to or asked the DM or the guy instead of throwing accusations. From his initial and subsequent posts it seemed that he did not ask, but instead went straight to the accusations, and the DM was (rightly) simply not entertaining him. The operative word is *apparent* history. We only have what the OP has written, and IME, people that come here throwing accusations like he did are simply affected by the green-eyed devil. The rest is not relevant. The guy's power factor is something the DM is comfortable with. The other players can match the guy or not, that is their choice. They do not have the right to whine and whinge if it is their choice to play weak. [/QUOTE]
