[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 7110070, member: 22779"] But, stop and think about what your ruling just did. Warlock casts darkness. Cleric casts silence on a rock and hands it to the warlock. The warlock is now invincible. He's completely immune to all attacks other than area attacks. He can never, ever be targeted. He attacks then moves 5-20 feet away. NPC's cannot find him, as he is undetectable. No targeted spells. And every attack can only be made at random squares. A second level spell and our warlock can now obliterate virtually any enemy that doesn't have true-sight or tremor sense or some sort of scent ability. Which aren't that common of abilities. I'm thinking that a pair of second level spells shouldn't make a PC invincible in combat. You've ruled that he is 100% undetectable without interfering with his actions at all. Setting this up takes all of one round and is easily achievable by a 3rd level party. Set this up, everyone else falls back and our warlock can't be defeated. Even if the enemy does manage to luck out and attack the right square, they've still got disadvantage. Our warlock is attack with advantage every round. I really don't think this is a good idea. Realistic or not. [/QUOTE]
