[QUOTE="Wiman, post: 4175502, member: 61261"] My prep tends to be maps and how NPC's and monsters will react to about 10 situations that may come up from players...everytime for every creature I like to think up 10 different situations...thus if the players do to the farmer what I was thinking they would do to a kobold (kill and take stuff....not a good example I know) I can instantly react without giving them the "blank - you did what stare" before reacting a couple of seconds later. Everything else is pretty much off the top of the head <the drive back from work comment from Majoru comes to mind as pretty much what I do>. Lots of prep before (3rd) although it got a lot faster with practice was making monsters less predictable, strong supporter of making kobolds bad ass <like how 4th edition made them a feasible encounter without any work>. From what we have seen I believe this will be cut down....at first because monster entries will be quite a bit different from 3.5 and later as it seems easier (for me) to change a monsters levels and abilities in this edition.
