is there any way to break a grab type attack?
i mean like crushing prisom and attacks like that.
most of my tactics these days are based off of potions (though i usually dont like to chug a lot of potions iv been doing it lately just to get through the game without needing a healer).
i set my tank to use a health pultice whenever his health is anywhere below 90% and everyone else to below 75%.
iv never had any sliver of a problem until now. the only time this fails is when either a lot of powerfull attacks are used back to back on someone (usually this only results in death for everyone other then the tank since they are weaker, jarvia for instance likes to use whirlwind, then punisher, then repost back to back on my mage which kills her way to fast to even heal) but if i keep attention on my tank then he can usually stand the initial onslought of abilities until there is a resting periode to chug potions back to full health.
actually iv only had him die on one part. In the deep roads there is a part where you are ambushed by a whole bunch of spiders and then a emissary is in the backround. doesnt sound like a tough set up? i didnt think so either.
problem is one of two things keep happening. either the emissary uses crushing prisom on my tank, then the spiders mob on him, after that (he can survive that much), almost immediately after, never fails, one of the spiders use overwhelm on him, so he never really gets a chance to heal. its just one after the other. or they will web him until he dies.
if it wernt for all these abilities that stun him it would be an easy fight, but he cant even catch a breath to heal lol.
so im wondering is there any way to break crushing prism once cast? theres no way i can get to the emissary in time to stop him from casting it, and by the time the spell expires my tank is about half health, which the emissary then uses other attacks (lightning bolt etc) while he either gets overwhelmed or webbed.

For physical grabs like the ones done by ogres and spiders, use any stun like shield bash or paralyse.
For crushing prison, use a spell that dispels magic. Alistair's purge should work as well.
And the best way to deal with crushing prisons is, to prevent them from being cast at all. Always mob casters with attacks, stuns, etc, anything to prevent him from casting his spells. Kill casters first.

Templar has an ability which cleanses the area of magic effects, this will eliminate crushing prison, mage has a dispel magic spell which can be cast on an individual. If you have a mage with force field, cast that on character who has crushing prison on him. Overwhelms can be stopped by freezing, paralysis, shield bash and pummel and pommel strike, any blow which can stun will work sometimes, but the creatures can resist, so sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

i actually just found out the emissary only comes after you if you mob the spiders. if you let the spiders come after you the emissary just waits in the back. but thank you! i didnt know that the purge spell works for offensive magic like crushing prison as well. i thought it was only for buffs.
ya i tried to mob him first but that spell doesnt really take any time to cast (if it does i never noticed whenever its being cast on me, i never bother to teach it to my mages so i wouldnt really know). and he usually gets it off before i can make it to him. it was defenately the spiders that made that fight difficult. and in particular i believe it was their overwhelm abilities. either way the problem was i couldnt catch enough of a break to heal lol.
but ill keep in mind that crushing prison can be dispelled.

I can't recall seeing anything clear webs, I just wait them out. You could try mindblast or dread howl or warcry or sleep, if you can stun the spiders they won't be able to take advantage of the web.
