İmparator [[II. Constantius]], [[Ursicinus (Romalı general)|general Ursicinus]]'un sadakatinden şüphelenmeye başlamıştı. Sonuç olarak, ona Doğu'daki Roma güçlerinin komutasını vermedi ve bunun yerine Sabinianus'a verdi. Pers istilasının haberi yayılırken, bölgenin sivil nüfusda panik başladı:
{{Ksöz| "Ülkenin halkını [çiftçileri] aileleri ve tüm besi hayvanları emniyetli yerlere taşımaları için emir vermek üzere, eyalet valisi olan Efronius ve Mezopotamya generali Cassian tek seferlik gönderildi.

Takip eden panikte, birkaç [[Roma lejyonu]], Amida'ya doğru Pers ilerleyişi düzensizce kaçtı. Bunlara Legio XXX Ulpia Victrix ve Legio X Fretensis dahildir.
It appears the Sassanid plan was to bypass difficult fortresses like [[Nusaybin#Ancient Period|Nisibis]] and to then march straight into [[Syria Coele (Roman province)|Syria]]. When his forces approached [[Amida (Roman city)|Amida]], the Sassanids were provoked into attacking the city.<ref>{{cite journal|last=Blockley|first=R.

Unable to gain a quick victory, Shapur had to commit to capturing Amida in order to appease his ally.▼

According to Ammianus Marcellinus [http://www.deremilitari.org/resources/sources/ammianus.htm]
{{quote|The king himself [Shapur II], mounted upon a charger and overtopping the others, rode before the whole army, wearing in place of a diadem a golden image of a ram's head set with precious stones, distinguished too by a great retinue of men of the highest rank and of various nations. But it was clear that he would merely try the effect of a conference on the defenders of the walls, since by the advice of Antoninus he was in haste to go elsewhere.}}
