It is a large magical power, yes, but Voldemort can control it as he sees fit. If he wishes it to bypass a wizard and attack a group of clones, it does so. Pretty simple, the stronger the wizard, the greater he can control and manipulate the fiendfyre. It's Voldemort, man, not Crabbe or Goyle.

He starts casting it at 59, the spell doesn't fully form until 1.04, a full five seconds after he starts. It doesn't even start to move until 1.10, eleven seconds after he started. Now, you can say that he doesn't need for the spell to fully form into the snake/ animal, but you have to remember that he was using it in a battle against his arch-nemesis, if he could have attacked faster, giving Dumbledore less time to counter, he would have. And it would take more seconds to get to the clones, giving them more time to counter-attack.[/b]
He casts it at :59, the spell is set at 1:00, that's it. All he has to then is control it. It doesn't take full form until :04, I'll give you that, but the spell is cast in a second. Voldemort casts the spell, it is set a second later, and he directs it towards the Clones, growing bigger and bigger. It is upon them in seconds.
http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Portable_scanner- While small and short-ranged, these scanners fulfilled simple needs by incorporating equipment such as motion sensors, metal scanners, comm scanners, and [b]life-form scanners.http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Heat_particle_detector -This device could be used to track the heat emitted from various objects and biological sources on a molecular level.

And you think the Clones will have time to register the fiendfyre bearing down on them, visually look for the source, fail to see it, use the sensors, find Voldemort, AND fire on him before the fiendfyre is upon them? We are talking about a matter of seconds, man, 5 seconds, tops.
Re-watch the philosophers stone, watch how long in takes those those [b]feathers to rise, then try say they be able to do it on a tank before one battle-ready trooper raises his blaster and fires.[/b]
And? So the wizards lose a few wizards, big deal. And if it is Dumbledore casting the spell, or even Snape, all they have to do is Occlumens a Clone gunner and have him fire on the others. Voldemort at point A, casting fiendfyre, moving to a new vantage point. Dumbledore, at point B, using Occlumency to mind **** the gunner on a Clone walker. Snape, at point C, using wingardium leviosa to topple the walkers. Death eaters attacking and killing Anakin, then joining in the battle, casting hover charms and whatever else they feel like to disable the walkers and Clones.
They are battle ready veterans, born to shoot first, ask questions later. They won't 'register' it, they'll shoot it. And if it takes 5 seconds for a feather to rise 10 feet (I youtubed it), it'll be ample time to fire before the tanks are in trouble.
Watch OOTP, Luna Lovegood casts wingardium on a death eater. He is thrust into the air and out of sight in less than a second.
Yeah, I'm the retard. Tell me, how many times now have you gloated over a 'impenetrable plan', only to have it obliterated before your eyes? Or can you not even count to two. And what!! You seriously think 'f[b]riendfyre' is gonna slaughter 500 people in seconds, before they take the 2 seconds it takes to raise and shoot at 21 people? Are you high?[/b]
Fiendfyre will be ever growing, totally under Voldemorts control. If he wants it to remain the size as it was in OOTP, so be it. If he wants to make it grow ten times bigger, his choice. Slow or fast, whatever.
Is this before or after they kill the vehicles and pull garlic guns out their ass?
Again, Watch OOTP, Luna Lovegood casts wingardium on a death eater. He is thrust into the air and out of sight in less than a second.
Death eaters got beaten by children,so yeah they are pretty stupid.
They were beaten by the OOTP, not the children. 😉
Are you allergic to sarcasm or something, or just really thick?
I am allergic to bees, they sting me and my arm swells up like the Hulk.
Jesus christ, do you even know anything about the HPverse. Heres a quick lesson. The death spell is an incredibly difficult spell to perform, Crouch jr said that even if his entire class used it on his, he would barely get a nose-bleed. It takes tremendous magical power to do it, so why don't [b]you try and prove they can do it.[/b]
I am talking about the Death Eaters, they are like the cream of the crop in the wizarding world. Crouch meant it is difficult to cast if the caster is inexperienced. The class was young and inexperienced, so durh, on him, it would have little if any effect. Bellatrix cast it like it was a bodily function. You make it sound as if Voldemort is the only one who can cast it. Utter the phrase, cant the spell, bingo, dead. IF the caster is experienced.
Another lesson- MOVIE FEATS ONLY.
Coming from a guy who just used wiki links?
Another lesson- Anakin uses his ON-SCREEN feat or force scream, which has ON-SCREEN bent durasteel. The wizards get their brains blown out through their nose.
Then why didnt is blow Sidious's brains through his nose? 🙄
Who's dense now, A-hole.
Yeah, I was an ass for calling you dense, apologies.
Even if they can't find him, which they can, a collective scatter-shot from 500 repeater blasters (which fires about 5 shots a second) will own Voldemort in no time.
Already countered this.
No, she came out of her 'half-apperating' smoke thing and got him, completely different.
She landed, cast the spell, Sirius was killed. All in less than a second. Apparating or half apparating, she can do it just as fast. You are now trying to alter onscreen feats. Congrats.
