Spoiler in white text below:In the LMoP though, as written, the players are not as likely to get the Staff of Defense. My players didn't.
Mine did. The party was able to storm straight through the lab room in a single initiative round. The fighter got to GS while he was still sat at his desk, looking surprised that his familiar had been zapped by the wizard a second or two before. Two chops with the magic longsword he'd just found, thanks to action surge, and the wizard was bleeding on the floor. It never even got to his turn! They didn't succeed in taking him prisoner!
