Wow I am so sorry he should have never been there"2. we sat down and calculated the EL of the bandit encounter and it was in the range of around 10. He thought it was 5. The sudden blackout was caused by some type of inhaling poison on the gag he put on HawkEye3. He said that he will use the Treasure Table from the Magic Item Compendium "with alterations"Oh and those were guards, guarding a castle that had an NPC princess (Vara) in it that we were supposed to "save". It wasn't a totally random "walk into a bar and open fire"*EDIT*wow I missed this entire page of posts, I thought it was the end of the last page. and not wanting to double post I am just editing this messageAnyway, I understand that I shouldn't be such a rule freak but truthfully I am not coming to him with all of these things, some are important, others aren't. Why I brought them all to here was because I do have the intention of DMing eventually and I want to know what I can and cannot do (obviously I can do just about anything, but seriously what is the right, by the rules way)So I am not coming here to complain (though I am sure it sounds that way) I just want a better understanding of the game so that I can intelligently talk to the DM. Instead of walking up saying "you are unfair, change your DM style, this is dumb, I quit" kind of a deal.About the feats thing I understand that he can do that but if for some reason a DM adds a bunch of feats on, doesn't that make the opponent harder? Isn't that what CR is supposed to measure? So if you have a level 2 guard with 40 feats, he may be level 2 but with that many feats he would be a contest for some pretty impressive foes. So I was wondering if in the case a DM wished to give some extra feats would he in turn bump up the CR a little bit as well?And there are so many posts about my name lol. I chose it because of Vincent Valentine from Final Fantasy VII. Nobody mentioned the names of the 2 NPCs in the party either, Braxis and Vara, Those don't fit with Scorpion and HawkEye either lol. (Oh and as a side note cuz someone mentioned green arrow, the funny thing is; he is using a green arrow token)Oh that brings me to another question. Do NPCs fighting alongside a player make the exp get spread among them as well?**EDIT2**oh and yes the tags are great =P</blockquote>
