[QUOTE="Rel, post: 367986, member: 99"] Good to have your comments, TLC! And let me take this opportunity to appologize profusely for the rough treatment Scar and the others recieved in this portion of the campaign. Let me assure you that at such time as we resume that campaign that the really tough encounters will be tickle fights with the herd of nymphs who will flock to the region and that after every encounter there will be fluffly towels and free Rods of Lordly Might for everyone! (The Lone Corndog is currently DMing our group and after a near TPK in the first adventure, I'm sucking up every chance I get.) I am almost positive that the group was 5th, 5th and 6th level respectively at that point. Regardless, I cringe to think of the total CR of the Temple encounters I threw at you in a single day. But, it was supposed to be a climactic encounter full of dread and near the limits of the party's endurance. I'd say it met that goal. One quick point, Malachai_Rose: Although the party was completely out of spells at this point, they still had their twin Wands of Cure Extremely Light Wounds (so named because it was a rare thing for them to roll above a 3 when they used them). So even though they were beat down and out of offensive spells, they still had the capability to have decent hit point if they wanted to burn some charges off the wands. As I recall, they used enough to assure that they were all in the double digits (which wasn't the case after that last fight with the druids) but after that decided to try and conserve the charges on the wands. As far as the armor situation goes, perhaps I overstated the case when I described them as scrambling for their armor. Scar was on watch and wore a chain shirt, so he was fine in any case (especially since he only slept 2 hours a night thanks to his Ring of Sustanance). Speaks slept in his hide armor too. It was Raven and his full plate armor who was hastily shoving it into his Hewards Handy Haversack. Perhaps if he survives the encounter, he will do something to remedy that problem... [/QUOTE]
