In the event of a street fight, simply cast a fireball.
T
Idk, doesnt seem very effective, dude kept coming
E
Level one fireball is usually pretty crappy. Especially in your first boss battle. Go spend some time in the mines and you’ll rank it up in no time
P
That is absolutely not fireball, maybe produce flame, it’s a low level cantrip, which would explain the constant casting.
T
“Yoga flame!”
P
*Sighs* Bob you are free to say you are using Yoga Flame but you have to chose a spell in the 5e book. You can’t homebrew a flame spell at our game, just like your farting wasn’t being ‘immersive’ last week when we were in the swamp.
K
“Ok, you know what, Bob? How about yoga roll for constitution check.” (It’s been ages since I’ve done any TTRPGs, but I love the idea of the DM just being completely over the players shit.)
H
Yup. One time I was running the *first* encounter (they ended up killing the guy then and there, but oops on them) and they just walked right up to him as he was doing some enchantments and just played dumb asking where they were and if he knew the way out of there, in a very clearly evil lair in a mountain you couldn’t possibly have got into on accident. Edit: spelling
G
First fat fucking laugh of the day
M
Ie every dm
K
It’s Dragon’s Breath and it’s short range for when an enemy comes a bit too close. The advantage is, it doesn’t have a cast time like fireball
P
You are absolutely right! How could I miss that?!? But could he really do the concentration moving around like that? Hrm. That’s why I was leaning toward cantrip.
K
Good point. Maybe the stuff he’s drinking before spitting fire is some kind of potion. At first, I thought it might just be a good ol’ mana potion, but maybe it’s clearcasting or something
R
True
M
Yep. Ain’t no way that dude is using spell slots for that.
P
AD&D 2nd Edition 1st level M-Us could only memorize three spells at a time. If it’s 4 cantrips per spell, the math pretty much works out perfectly!
G
> Level one fireball is usually pretty crappy That’s definitely not *fireball*, that’s level three. It’s probably *burning hands*, but if he’s low level he wouldn’t be able to cast it so many times, so he probably has a Wand of Burning Hands and is burning charges on it.
A
Its [Dragons Breath](https://dnd5e.wikidot.com/spell:dragons-breath), he is spewing fire from his mouth. As long as he maintains concentration (his opponent never lands a hit, so he never has to save), he may cast it as a bonus action every turn. His opponent keeps making the dex save tho.
L
This needs to be the top comment.
G
I forgot that dragon’s breath is a duration spell, yes, that makes a lot more sense
R
Been awhile since I played, but provided this guy had the skill and mana isn’t there a deflection spell push dragons breath back at the user? I recall this happening to someone except it was some kind paralysis incantation. (D&D)
A
Monsters play by a different ruleset, so it could have been some sort of monster action specific to that monster. Only thing I can think of like that for players is protection from elements, but it functions very differently.
A
Well you can see the wand in his hand.
A
Splash on rats in the sewer
P
Solo leveling
M
Usually street performers are street performers because they don’t want to spend time in the mines
P
I recommend doing all the quests at the Arcane University in Hammerfall.
I
Fire guy is being very nice. All it would take is one spit all over the other guy *without* lighting it. Then the next fireball ends it.
T
He hasn’t learned the spell “immolate” yet.
C
Wrong class
P
Exactly, but then you’ve committed murder and he probably doesn’t want to go down that rabbit hole.
P
This guy murders. ^(Oh snizz, that sounds horrible now that I’ve finished writing it! Still, I need the social credits…)
S
Ngl, if you start spitting fireballs at me, you win the fight. I gave it a go and things didn’t work out. I am going home to have a drink and think about my life choices while gently stroking my still intact eyebrows.
P
That fireball was about to rank up. It’s called powerlevelling and only a true RPG god would understand. (/s)
M
There was a very effective way to win that fight. You would go to jail but you would win.
D
Right? He should have spit the alcohol onto the dude then lit it
P
Pro tip…spit the fuel onto the dude and just light him instead.
R
to be more effective, spray without ithout lighting once first
B
That would have wrapped things up quickly.
P
This just went from “mild deterrent” to “attempted murder”.
R
If they have any sense of self preservation, they’ll back off once they’re wet
C
You’re talking about someone fighting a fire mage *in the middle of traffic*. That dude’s sense of self preservation was abandoned on the sidewalk and is currently running away from him at an appreciable percent of *c*
A
Holy cow… you are right
_
Or just lift the torch in half spray. But it does sound like a good way to turn it into a felony charge.
Y
Was waiting for that until the end

Mage has very low hitpoints. If you land one good hit, you can get some rare loot.

Buddy needs to skip this fight, go out to the woods and fight some low levels rats and spiders first.
C
he just has to kill thousands of boars in elwynn forest
H
THEN he can finally play the game
