i'm playing SoA, ToB, baldurdash, tactics and the non-cheating
elements of ease of use (solo FMT)
i experienced what i assume was the first 'tactics' ambush (the ambush party had names like 'wizard slayer') - i had plenty of spells in hand so i fired an instant sunfire (robe of vecna) and ran to hide behind some crates - i noticed that i hadn't used my newly learned mislead spell so i cast it and went on the back stabbing frenzy that was every bit as cheesy as i'd heard - i was hacking the mage when the mislead ran out but she
still didn't target me - i assumed mislead was even more broken than i thought
next time i was ambushed i didn't have mislead but i still sunfired and ran, hid in shadows and ran back to backstab the (normal non-tactics) mage - i did so - she died but then
the rest of the party completely ignored me too - i wandered around a bit - i (metaphorically) tapped them on the forehead, nothing - i systematically slaughtered them, nothing - it was all a bit confusing, they were helpless
tremble at the power of sunfire (but it must be a bug right?)
