> Just curious. I'm exploring level 8 and my wizard cast "Quiet" on 3 fire dragons. There were about 6 monster groups and as we were fighting I saw my wizard silence the dragons and then the dragons cast a spell. Why would they cast a spell right after I "Quieted" them???? It doesn't make sense to me cause I always wanted my wizard to cast a spell before I got hurt..I'm just puzzled and appreciate anyone's input.

There are a couple of possible explanations for what you witnessed.

First, you didn't say if the spell was successful. Monsters are stupid, and they kinda attack at random. They don't know if they've been silenced, and they sometimes cast spells that "unravel" and do no damage.

Second, it's possible that one of the dragons wasn't successfully silenced. Spells aren't always successful, even if your caster is really wise.

Third, it's possible that a dragon from a different group cast the spell, because that group wasn't silenced. It's not uncommon to have more than one class of the same type of monster.

Fourth, you may have mistaken fire breath for a spell, especially if you read it really quickly.
