[QUOTE="kingius, post: 5962694, member: 85123"] I'm right about more than that: in your scenario, once something like that happens, you'll find players in quick agreement about whether exploiting the system again is a good idea. There'd be quick assent to stepping away from such 'cheese' because... shock... the DM can use every single exploit they come up with, too. Everybody wants to have fun at the table, I agree. But lets put it into perspective and bring the context back. Polymorph is not pointing a sword at someone from 500' away and they die, or unlimited actions per round. Nor is alter self, etc. Anyway, if you are so worried about people pointing fingers at targets and them dying, you are free to ban finger of death and power word kill and disintegrate and so on from your games. Perhaps after just such an occurance where the DM used it on a player and it was no fun and so there is group agreement to veer away from them. [/QUOTE]
