[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 7882647, member: 6801845"] So the party comes out to find out what the thudding sound is they interrupt their long rest to clear debris or start a fight. Job done. Except they don't do that because they aren't idiots and don't fight the dragon in the darkness. Except that they do because the darkness lasts until the next lair action. Except they don't ... my head hurts. Trees, debris, rocks that have accumulated for a few hours on top of the hut cause no issue when the spell expires because they're piled up neatly like jenga sticks. When the dragon can carry well more than a thousand pounds of stuff every time he drops something off. Several tons of debris is never going to crumple in. But even if it didn't (I don't see how), the party is now entombed. Sounds like a fun challenge for the group or TPK depending on how you run it. If the dome has a floor*, it doesn't change the tons of material piled on top. Or dragon with several hours to dig around and under the dome sinks it to the bottom of the new pond the they made. Oh, and dragons never, ever have allies or additional minions that the party hasn't already killed off. So you've also decided that dragons are completely helpless in the face of a temporary shelter. Your choice I guess. [I]*I don't consider tweets official.[/I] [/QUOTE]
