[QUOTE="jgsugden, post: 8405648, member: 2629"] I had not read your other later post when I replied, but thanks for assuming the worst.As a DM: I build a campaign then adjust it to account for the story of the PCs, but not their abilities, except where they have a clear gap in capability I expected them to have (which is insanely rare). If a PC has an ability that trivializes combats, I will sometimes just narrative past the combat, but otherwise I just let them shine, as I discussed up thread. PCs are heroes - and having them be successful is not a problem. I let the heroes be heroes. As a player - 3 PCs have had a lot of flight in 5E for me. A 4th one just started at 8th level in DotMM. The ability has not been world shaking. It allowed a wizard to avoid a lot of melee, but so did being in the rear of the party for other PCs. It got one PC killed (taken to 0 hp by push/damage, crashed into lava (2 auto failed death saves - fire and fall), then died right after on their turn to a failed death save roll). All in all, it was not disruptive to the game. Much ado about nothing. [/QUOTE]
