Have I been doing it wrong when I grab a bunch of mooks, a sub-leader or 2, and dial my encounters to "deadly?"Probably also worth pointing out that Bounded Accuracy, that much maligned, but oh so wonderful mechanic, allows me to use a dozen goblins instead of a single (whatever would be the CR equivalent monster to 12 goblins,) and still consistently deal substantial damage to my PCs. In fact, our most recent PC death was to a bunch of crossbow wielding mooks. Maybe that's the trick. Larger groups have been a bigger threat to my players than solo or small group encounters. Maybe that's specific to our table. Maybe it's worth trying for DMs that have had difficulty challenging their players.</blockquote>
