[QUOTE="Katana_Geldar, post: 5372237, member: 85476"] Let's set the scene a little... It's the second encounter in the 4E superadventure with the crone statue, and the fire mage made a HUGE mistake when he tried to high-five the old lady. She's got a +19 backhand and all I have to do to hit the wizard is roll above a natural one. He's beaten back, falling down a lot as she hits him and several other more beefy players are knocked flying. The wizard is knocked prone, pumped full of temp hp by the cleric, but he's right at the feet of that annoying statue. And due to the initiative order, he can't be moved and neither can the statue. It was at this point I decided to fudge a natural one, as it just seemed too mean. The player called shenanigans, as he wanted this to be run [B]fairly[/B]. I shrug and roll again, a [B]2[/B]. But it still hits, and we all know the wizard is about to die, there's no way he's surviving 2d10+10 damage. He's ready to die, and I'm ready for him to die He's watching me as I roll the d10s..... ...and I roll a 1 and a 2, a 13. This cleans through his temp hp with a few real hps to spare. Next thing is the statue's moved away from him and then curb stomped by the monk [/QUOTE]
