> Also, let me ask a question: were you using pebble hoping for the lagging effect? If not, I'm curious why you didn't use forked lightning or buffet, since he is an arial. If they are all going to be spellbaned, why not take advantage of a racial vuln? And pebble has as much if not more of a lag to casting as fork or buffet. Just curious. Buffet - 1 round I would first try an area like scourge (Arynth, why didn't you try it??), fireball or cone of cold (cone is 2 rounds but hits pretty well). If they are not spellbaned, go on with them, if they are, use buffet.
Forked lightning - 2 rounds
Pebble to boulder - 2 rounds
I would say pebble to boulder is only useful when you fight not ragers that can recall from you so you want to lag them. When you're fighting a rager better do a lot of damage to them so they think about running when it's too late.
