Limit Break Dancing (He/They)
The DM isn't the only person at the table who has control over the number of encounters that occur in a day, or how many of the party's resources get spent per encounter. The players can also decide to take safer routes, avoid certain areas, spend a day or two in camp to recover, etc., to reduce the overall number of encounters they have. And when combat occurs, they control how many spell slots get used, how many potions get drank, how many wand charges get spent, and--depending on their willingness to use the Dodge, Disengage, and Help actions--they have some control over how many hit points get lost.Well sure, but for my upcoming session, how feasible is it for the party to handle that number of encounters?
As the DM, you can only do so much to manage the party's resources. At least half of that responsibility should be pushed back onto the players in my opinion.
