And I don't really approve of making it more likely to die to make the game "harder." (Personal preference really.)I like to think of the tactical combat of D&D like a game of XCOM or Fire Emblem or Divinity Original Sin. (Any turn based game really.) How tough is it to win the fight? I like the idea of using good battlefield tactics and teamwork to win. How challenging a fight is ABSOLUTELY depends on how the DM sets up encounters, but it still feels really easy to accidentally have an encounter that was supposed to be hard but wasn't because you didn't do the numbers right. As it is now I just throw very hard things at the party until the almost die (or do die) and I figure out that's the top end.</blockquote>
