The swordsmen and other melee players were unable to escape due to how Cotton just casually shoots them some webs that they can't even get to remove in the usual way. Due to their inability to escape, they are easy picking on kills. Without waiting for them to even escape, I bash their heads with the shield repeatedly before finishing them with a gun. I can injure them with the shield but it takes too long for them to die from just that and with all the enemies shooting me with arrows and magic alongside clerics healing the other players bashed with the shield, it will take me forever to eliminate them. Sure, I needed to wait for Harmless Sparrow's signal but that doesn't mean I needed to take that long to finish things that long.
Besides, if I needed to take long enough to wait for her signal, why not beat up the Vice President instead to pass up the time? Isn't that more beneficial?
