Nightfall
Sage of the Scarred Lands
takasi said:My party has action points, 32 point buy and 7 members. No true deaths yet but several close calls.
The most difficult encounter so far has been the Ebon Aspect in 3FoE. The only reason it was so difficult is because they encountered it before resting after the Vecna/Shadow area.
IIRC, Erik Mona's playtest group consisted of EIGHT party members...
Explains how Erik can get away with introducing the adversary at the end of Part 4/HoHR.
Even so, that's some pretty nasty stuff. The Ebon Aspect alone scares me, rested or not. That's a near deity for the love of Orcus!
