[QUOTE="AaronOfBarbaria, post: 6842542, member: 6701872"] Up through the word "focus" I was about to agree, since players not being focused on playing the game is obviously going to make playing the game not as fluid... But then I saw "fire", and you lost me again. My group rarely does the "focus fire" (or "piranha tactics" as we've heard it called) thing because if you try to dedicate all your effort to dealing with one of multiple baddies you put yourselves in an easier position (tactically speaking, not geographically) for your enemies to focus upon your team's weak-link. Instead, they divide their attentions among their enemies to encourage those enemies to likewise spread their offense around. It's a lot easier to survive, and recover, when everyone in the party is a little bit down in hit points than when one or two characters are way down and everyone else is fine. [/QUOTE]
