But should they?I always view the DM as the "entertainer", he is the guy with the greatest responsibility to ensure that the players have a great time. We had a change of GM recently and the first thing the new GM did was put in monsters (of his own creation) which were super hard to kill and seemed capable of countering everything the party did.Now said DM understood the rules real well and he use that knowledge to trump the party. I sat him down and (in my most diplomatic tone) pointed out that trumping everything the party does simply isnt fun for anyone. You have to let the players enjoy what their characters do. Sure, you can rock the boat from time to time, but you have to let people enjoy their characters.Its not a great thing when a DM uses there position to neutralize character capabilities time and again, and finding ways to beat tank marks(or aura e.t.c.) time and again just ends up making playing tanks irrelevant and boring.</blockquote>
