[QUOTE="Mistwell, post: 7972834, member: 2525"] Oh boy. My memories of the 3.5 version vary from "Wow this is awesome" to, in the end, "We're never going to beat this grind, it's impossible." The foes just seemed to be endless. If we left one section of the vast dungeon it would just fill in with more foes. If we built a safe zone in one area, it would be broken down over time and when we returned we'd just find yet more foes. The place had just so many intelligent foes with so many numbers favoring them that it just began to feel like that Paladin in Hell picture from 1e. Like every foe we killed resulted in two taking its place. I think we failed to focus on the goals and thought we could make the dungeon safe again for the citizens nearby. I think that was an impossible mission, and had we focused on getting to the middle of the dungeon instead of clearing it we might have had a better end to that campaign. [/QUOTE]
