This calculation involves determining the deadly threshold and accounting for the encounter multiplier for a large number of monsters[/Spoiler]24 seems close enough in exasperated eyeball math to 30 for such a ridiculous example as goblins using mud and sticks to justify wotc not fixing the design problems that incentive rest early rest often and design against meaningful narrative consequences like I pointed out in 1860 a page back in response to yet another flawed solution for a GM to use if the system itself did not design against it.</blockquote>
