[QUOTE="Arrgh! Mark!, post: 3696092, member: 14559"] A lot of good advice here. Just a small thing; do you roleplay with "And then Krusk says' KRUSH!" or do you say "CRUSH!"? Weirdly enough, take yourself out of your character. Before you make a snide comment, think 'what would Krusk say'? And then 'Krusk says..." It removes the direct impact of you yourself facing the regenerating monster, and you knowing everything there is to know about the regenerating monster. Instead it's Krusk facing the regenerating monster and not know what to do but hit it and roleplay. Krusk saying "Dat ting.. it gets better from me hittin it!" it a ton better than "Damn thing's four CR's above us and has regeneration.. run!" Basically, take your ego in a step; I'm not saying this in a bad way, I'm just saying be quieter at the table with non gaming stuff, and louder with gaming stuff. It took effort for me to do it but it paid off hugely. Just the advice from a recently snide, mechanics minded rules lawyer ex-DM who learned to appreciate the game again. :D [/QUOTE]
