[QUOTE="DND_Reborn, post: 7884607, member: 6987520"] Yeah, that was what I had when I did the calculations later myself. Otherwise, you're making a lot of assumptions and optimizations. That's fine since I understand you have to build your own party given I didn't provide tons of detail about our group or how the encounters went, but for instance, assuming the bard has Burning Hands and manages to hit [I]all[/I] six scarecrows (it seems like that what you did, but maybe I am misreading you...) is a big stretch. At our table (anyway) magic weapons at levels 3 or 4 is not common at all, especially something like a +1 greatsword. But anyway, I appreciate the work since you put a lot of thought into it, but overall I am convinced unless the party met the encounters under near optimal conditions and/or were insanely lucky, these foes would take more than 2-3 rounds to defeat. Regardless, as I said before, each battle took a bit more than an hour. Too much time, too many rounds IMO. Maybe during our next session I'll take notes during a couple battles so you can offer a more informed critique since I like what you wrote.
