[QUOTE="Falling Icicle, post: 1471304, member: 17077"] I disagree. If you are going to use Polymorphing as a weapon, most of the time you are not going to want to turn them into something big and powerful. Believe me, the ability to turn a mighty enemy into a harmless critter and strip away its mind is [b]very[/b] powerful and [b]very[/b] cruel. My DM watched in horror a couple sessions ago as I turned an evil, beefed up, Elder Air elemental into a puny squirrel. What was going to be a tremendous challenge was reduced to harmlessness with one 5th level spell. And since it kept its mind, we got to torture it by burying it alive (what could be a worse punishment for an air elemental?). :] And I really like how I can use Polymorph on other people now without it being permanent. This spell has seen alot of great use in our party. [/QUOTE]
