So far they completed encounters 1-3 with using an average # of surges (the Rogue had a few accidents that he brought on himself by charging into a group of enemies) and only one daily. They got through Area 2 with minimal damage by finding a safe route and just ignoring the traps, which fired all of 3 times at them. In retrospect, I probably would have run that with 1 skirmisher and 4 minions instead of 2 skirmishers, to give them more targets and make them more apt to hit the traps. That said, I think it will be a matter of how much abuse they take from the boulder and wyrmpriest in area 4 that determines what their odds against the YWD are.</blockquote>
