Or fighting an enemy which is relatively vulnerable to your attacks, but who has an attack that will paralyse or kill you out right.  Both of these examples take away your at-will or per encounter resources(either by being immune to anything but your most powerful or paralysing you) or take all your resources by auto-killing you. thus yes it is more difficult than the first.  Yet we again went from breeze encounter(with varying lengths) to a supreme danger situation.  Either everything has to be able to neutralize your resources in one encounter or you will beat it with no consequences since they will recharge.</blockquote>
