[QUOTE="IceBear, post: 514036, member: 1118"] Yeah it is. You used the fact that the fire does less damage to you than the Yeti does as a factor in making the decision. If a monk character is trained to fall great distances that's fine. Listen, this is going to get ugly so let's end it here. My group and I all have the same tastes, your group has different, let's leave it be. We hate stupid (ok, what WE consider stupid) visuals. Seeing someone standing there on fire while waiting for the yeti to die even when they were no longer in mortal peril is such a visual. Thus, no one in my game would do that. They would immediately put themselves out when they were clear from the Yeti, and thus I've never been forced to take action them for metagame thinking. Hell, in one session a watchman showed up with a crossbow and told them to freeze once and the fighter looked at me and laughed and said "Well, I have 100hp and he's got a crossbow", but he put up his hands and went along quietly. If he wanted to fight I wouldn't have killed him or anything - just in case you think I would have. He was just acting out the scene, like he thought his character would. IceBear [/QUOTE]
