[QUOTE="Klaudius Rex, post: 6896569, member: 6807408"] I'm DMing the second half of Out of the Abyss, and the characters are going to face off against Xazax the Eyemonger nearby Mantol Derith. I got five level 8 players and two "guests who want to try out the game" that im going to have them start at level 7. Together, that is a sizeable force against a CR13 Beholder. My question is that im worried that the group will blow away this beholder easily. So to complicate it a bit i was considering adding the following trap (let me know if you think they are fair, and what other suggestions you got, thanks!): 1) Rock Trap - This beholder is actually expecting the attack in game, and has set up a falling rock trap above his lair entrance What i really want/need is bright ideas from you people to liven this up or come up with something cool for a beholder. Im open to all suggestions. Lets hear them! I would also appriciate spot/disarm DCs and saving throws, along with your suggestions. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
