[QUOTE="GMforPowergamers, post: 8667078, member: 67338"] let me add the WORST ending to a game I can remember (and people still bring it up as me ruining the moment) was in 1997... and I know the year exactly even that it was winter cause I get this thrown in my face by 3 current and 1 ex player to this day... I wans't the DM (the DM is one of those current players that still blames me although also admits maybe it was PART his fault) in 2e I was a spellfire (a broken concept on it's own from Volo's guide) I had a 17 con. I had a handful of levels in ranger then duel classed into wizard. We had been tracking this villian for years in game and atleast 6 months out of game... he was a lich, we just broke his phylactry and entered his dungeon/Demiplane and fought through a handful of rooms... I kept absorbing spells... we got to a super arcane locked door and called it for the night... the next session started with me trying Knock, it failed, so I absorbed tha magic. I opened the door and got hit with a chain lightning... that fizzeled and brought me WAY over the 1/2 conx10 so I started to glow and said "Magic blast, here's one from a pro" and launched a 17d6 auto hit spellfire blast. I rolled so high... I one shoted him. campaign over. by the way the reason we were hunting said lich was he killed 2 other PCs home town including there families... they didn't even get to roll initiative... opps if the DM had said "Oh he has a super special anti spellfire thing" and let the fight go 2 or 3 rounds we wouldn't remember it as the dumbest ended campaign ever... and I would not be made to feel bad regularly [/QUOTE]
