    Help with balancing my party

    I checked the math, and the sheet, and cross referenced it with the phb, and watched countless videos on stealth, surprise, sneak attack, crits, assassinate etc etc. Sent from my HTC 10 using EN World mobile app

    Help with balancing my party

    I have been the whole campaign, I'm playing lmop and they should be fighting goblins with like 10hp or something stupid which is why I've been either buffing their health and damage or just replacing them with creatures with adequate cr Sent from my HTC 10 using EN World mobile app

    Help with balancing my party

    Ok so he sneaks up to an enemy and attacks using his rapier 1d8+5, but (using the assassin archetype) because the creature hasn't taken an action he gets advantage, and because the creature is surprised (because of the stealth) it's an automatic critical hit making the attack roll 2d8+5. Because...

    Help with balancing my party

    I'll have a word with him. He does get involved outside of combat, probably more than anyone else in the group but that's not saying much because no one really gets involved. One of our characters actually role plays with a voice and adhering to his bonds/ideals etc. But the others aren't...

    Help with balancing my party

    I've checked the maths several times. Not recently so maybe my numbers above are incorrect but it's all above board. I'll look it up this evening and upload the stats to the thread. You mentioned an amulet that negates stealth. I already did this, I gave them all enchanted yet cursed items...

    Help with balancing my party

    I've posted about my OP rogue before and I've been trying different ways of combating it for a few sessions now. It's fair play that he's OP, he spent a lot of time making his character and optimised it perfectly whereas the other players didn't. The problem is two fold: 1) He has a high...

    D&D 5E LMOP home brew elements

    I just read another thread regarding the unentertaining side quests in LMoP and thought I'd share the improvisations I did, mainly because I really want to share them but obviously can't talk to my players about it. So they cleared the redbrand ruffian Hideout but Glasstaff escaped before they...

    D&D 5E Chapter Three of Lost Mines of Phandelver is Frustrating

    I really enjoyed this campaign at the start but we all got sick of the side quests too so I edited them and pretty much home brewed it. You sound like an experienced DM so I'm sure you can handle it. I'm gonna make a thread detailing my homebrew elements shortly if you're bothered Sent from...

    D&D 5E Need advice on how to reward 1 character but not whole party.

    I've just rewarded my players with one piece of enchanted weapon/armour each. But they were all cursed as well which was fun for me. Each session if someone role plays their character well or does something cool and inventive or just saves the day then I reward inspiration.That's why it's there...

    QUICK! HELP! SESSION IN 3HOURS. MISSING PLAYER

    Sorry I didn't mean melee, stupid mistake on my part. I mean it's all physical contact, swinging swords, shooting bows, there's no utilisation of spells or magic. Can I just add a random spell to the goblin/doppelganger's arsenal? Sent from my HTC 10 using EN World mobile app

    QUICK! HELP! SESSION IN 3HOURS. MISSING PLAYER

    I'll ask if they're willing to play her,if not,we won't bother,I can't handle it myself. Off topic; all my encounters are melee therefore boring, can you advise on how to change this? The problem is they're fighting a doppelganger and goblins as per the book, so they are melee, but its so dull...

    Resting in armour

    Ok it seems that the general consensus is; don't introduce this rule. That's fair enough, I was just wondering if it would be fair and the answer is a resounding "no". I shan't be introducing this rule.
