[QUOTE="Celtavian, post: 6971289, member: 5834"] Once again, not a single one of those encounters requires 6 to 8 encounters. How do I as a DM force them to follow the paradigm? And you do not measure the quality of the challenge for each encounter? So how exactly are you claiming the game designers account for this by creating encounters that don't require six to eight encounters be completed and that are so weak as to not drain enough resources? For example, one of the areas you mention above had a single wizard as an appropriate encounter. This wizard died in one round and he was one of leaders of the site. I again reiterate that the designers do not follow the six to eight encounters per day as in it is not required and can rarely be enforced by the DM. Secondly, the challenge and quality of the encounters is not sufficient to challenge intelligent, tactical parties. The capabilities of the monsters is weak and lacks variety. So no, they do not follow what you claim they follow. The modules are not challenging. They do not require six to eight encounters per day. Prove that you have to do six to eight encounters per day and prove that the encounters are challenging for an appropriate level party even using the base rules. [/QUOTE]
