More or less depending on the challenge.This, however, depends, if the monster could chose its terrain advantage, or if the players were clever and picked an enemy, when he was at disadvantage. Players should not be penalized for beeing clever.[MENTION=6674266]Ba[/MENTION]lanced encounters:balanced encounters are boring. Usually one party choses when to fight. The other party should try to get an edge too. So no, the DM is not solely responsible for making monsters worth their xp. Usually he tries to make them worth more. PCs try to make them less challenging.</blockquote>
