I'm sensing some sarcasm...
There's nothing wrong with a little panicking. I think DM's want their players to feel like not every combat will be a walk in the park. And I was starting to get a little worried too! With the exception of Kubo, who they had some sort of aversion to, the little bugs were getting insanely lucky. Tomeal has an AC of 21 and Vermin don't really have very good attack bonuses but they were constantly hitting him anyways!
As a DM I don't like when players start feeling discouraged. I try hard to keep the game kind of unique and to slowly offer things to make everyone's characters special, like with Selina's sword and Ning and Nang merging (even though that really did happen because of a random roll. I just saw a cool opportunity and ran with it). So I was just trying to be encouraging by stating that there are some options that may have been forgotten about like the Potion fruits that Selina, Tomeal, Kubo and Crozar had available to. I did the same thing when Ning stated there wasn't much he could do. I reminded him of a couple options but Beguilers are kind of screwed when fighting mindless creatures. But his bro is attached to him so that gives him some additional options. Unfortunately he got another bad roll for when his Breath Weapon returns.
