[QUOTE="Elf Witch, post: 5895259, member: 9037"] You know this whine DMs have of player entitlement is getting old. DMs are not gods they make mistakes. Personally I don't care how a module is written a DM needs to be able to adjust it on the fly. The DM brought out an invisible foe a boss no less after a battle that the PCs barely won. As a DM myself I would have changed the module at this point unless I didn't care if they were TPKed. They were given a choice of surrender or fight. As for fleeing like others have said a lot of players won't do that and in this case this monk could have gone after them and would have been faster. So they really couldn't have fled unless the DM pulled his punches and let them go run away. If you look at it from the players point of view it looks like they won a hard fight only for the DM to pull out a higher level bad guy to kill them. Which is why the DM needs to talk to them and treat them like children. If a DM ever talked to me like you are suggesting I would walk and the DM would never be allowed at my table because they obviously lack social skills in dealing with an issue. [/QUOTE]
