[QUOTE="DragonLancer, post: 3820682, member: 11868"] They are experienced players, some of which I've known for almost 20 years. I would not peg them as all that cautious and they certainly don't stock their backpacks for every contingency (though a handful silver arrows are kept for the odd encounter). The swarm in Whispering Cairn is nasty, but the party did not lose anyone to it. They fled the cairn, planned and came back. Actually that sums my players up quite well - encounter, fight, possibly flee, adapt and come back. The only area in which they have had problems and a loss, was the Spire of Long Shadows. The intitial encounter at the entrance gave them grief and the [spoiler]Overworm devoured [/spoiler]one of them. Otherwise they have had no real issues at all. Different groups will handle the threats in different ways. From running AoW I've not found it as lethal as all that. [/QUOTE]
