[QUOTE="RFisher, post: 3798740, member: 3608"] You know, the Force Slam thing reminds me a lot of the arguments over Sleep in classic D&D. It's OK for the PCs to completely dominate encounters. Even when the CR says it should be more challenging. (CR shouldn't be considered a guarantee.) Especially when the encounter is the type the PCs have been built to dominate. But we'll see how I feel after the Saga campaign. (^_^) Besides, groups are different. I can come up with reasons for why something doesn't seem to be a problem in my group [i]ad naseum[/i] that don't apply to your group. In the end, if something isn't working for your group, you just have to fix it, even if it doesn't seem to cause problems for every other group on the planet. Reminds me of the "reverse death spiral" idea: To properly emulate literature (especially pulp literature) taking damage should give them [i]bonuses[/i] instead of penalties. (^_^) [/QUOTE]
