[QUOTE="Arbitrary, post: 4456569, member: 66185"] An Ochre Jelly can only split when it is first bloodied during the encounter so if the DM split it on his own to trap you guys than he either made a DM decision to tweak the encounter that then killed everyone or he messed up. If it was bloodied by your team and [I]then[/I] split each half would only have, at most, 25ish hit points. If he also intentionally placed the rats in such a way to prevent escape, and then left them there to do no other action other than keep the Jellies from being bullrushed than that is some impressive tactical combat out of some of the lowest intelligent creatures. The whole thing screams out that the DM was treating the encounter as a player versus player tactical minature game and trying to win the game. Your best bet is to have the Gnome (because he is small) try and make it to the other side of the Jellies so he can move the rats out of position to enable a bull rush. [/QUOTE]
