[QUOTE="nsruf, post: 1428851, member: 872"] And spend all their time in the room? I think not. The last time my party used scry+teleport for hit-and-run, the npc was far away from his home and not expecting them to meddle in his affairs right now. So I decided he had no protection up (although he could cast misdirection, I decided he wouldn't do that every day without a good reason). The saving grace was player stupidity - despite having greater scrying, they only gave him and his surroundings a cursory examination. As a result, they assaulted him in the stronghold of group of mages who are explicitly neutral and willing to help all parties in the current conflict. And they got caught after killing two of the mages, too <evil laugh> Still, I don't want my game to degenerate into a series of spells and countermeasures, and it seems headed this way pretty fast. How fun is it to have to come up with a different explanation why villain X can't be scried on every single session? [/QUOTE]
