You're right. If I knew the Spare the Dying cantrip, how could I work anywhere else than ER? 16 hour shifts every day... Noope, rather stay Chaotic and gamble in casinos with Mage Hand or Guidance.. ...or go full Evil, Vicious Mockery, no somatic component... can you imagine the road rage? :)...

Spare the Dying would have me be present at hospitals all the time, thinking about how many lives I am not saving when I'm not on duty. Also sitting next to my elderly parents listening to the heart monitor would just suck the life out of me :( ...you have to cast it within few seconds...

I would rule like this: Arcana check to see whether something can be dispelled: As free action with disadvantage OR As a standard action OR As a 1-minute action with advantage

If Guidance works with gambling, I'd definitely take that :) `Pray to god` just before rolling dice -- and you beat the house odds :)

Ront devoured by the grey ooze while escaping from the prison. Prince Derendil assassinated by Buppido on the Darklake (dagger to the back and a push to the water) Currently everyone is hating Topsy/Turvy because they have been disappearing in the night, and they want to kill them / leave them...

In my OOTA adventure, Shuushar has moved on, Stool is protege of party fighter and there is one drow PC :) Sunlight will be frowned upon.

I just realized that the rare sword (Sun Blade) has a huge drawback. It emits sunlight! Let's list all characters that are harmed by sunlight: Sunlight Sensitivity: Buppido, Shuushar the Awakened, Sarith Kzekarit Sun Sickness: Stool Also one extra benefit is that it can be held by monks...

BTW My original post was here: http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?398799-LMoP-Adjustment-Calculator But not many people noticed before it scrolled away... What other adventures would you like to add? Hoard?

You can use the encounter adjustment script I wrote here: http://haluz.org/lmop/index.php I believe it is EXACTLY what you need ;)

Klarg and Blarg are great examples :) Eyballing LMOP is difficult, as the encounters are not all MEDIUM difficulty. They alternate between EASY and DEADLY. So if you want to keep the crazy tempo, the script will provide.

You're welcome! Changelog: I have changed the output so that it is more readable. Now it says Goblin (7,7,8) instead of Goblin (7) Goblin (7) Goblin (8) I have changed logic so that it picks 10 best solutions (according to my script) and displays them in decreasing order of quality. Lazy people...

Today I have added some extra explanation of the values in parenthesis, and am also displaying the percentage by which the HP were adjusted...

Narrative POV is very important and is something that no script can compute. My script outputs up to 10 variants for each encounter, and then you are free to choose one that will match the narrative. Maybe the one with two Bugbear Chiefs does not work, but then there will be one with single...

My script makes the encounters easier only if you have party with fewer than 4 players. But main use is, when you have a party of higher level (2+) or more than 5 players. If you'd use the adventure as written, there would be no deadly encounters for such party, and they would waltz through...

I have added few more monsters. What my app is doing: 1. Adjusting HP of monsters 2. Adjusting number of monsters 3. Changing monsters into similar ones (Wolf/Worg, Ghoul/Ghast) And tries to do minimal changes that will cause same encounter difficulty for given party.
