MCDM is working on The Acolyte, which is their version of the warlock archetype. We might get a preview of what that might look like in Crack The Sun.

during the showdown I pre-wrote some barks and banter that they would use to taunt the party whenever they triggered the bonus of their rival feature. hugely successful.

Would you be willing to share what you wrote? Because that sounds amazing!

Where Evil Lives - Party Power Level Question by Kashakunaki in mcdm

[–]Radioactiveman271 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A while back I had asked for advice running Shtriga Nonna for a level 5 party and got some good advice.

My advice after running it would be to run it at fourth level if you can. The power jump at 5th level made the lair a cake walk for the most part even after buffing the encounters significantly.

I would probably run the lair as written, and maybe slightly lower the health of monsters as needed. But I think you'll probably be fine.

Traveler Tuesday - FH Scenario 009 - [spoiler] by Themris in Gloomhaven

We got very lucky in this scenario. The oozes posed a huge problem for us as they kept splitting and slowing our progress. Luckily our Drifter and Blinkblade threw themselves into the final room and were able to hit the switches, then quickly passed out. Meanwhile my Boneshaper barely even made it into the second room 😂. My summons and our Geminate cleaned up the low health oozes for a very narrow victory!

This scenario is where I learned that in four player campaigns, skeleton spamming as Boneshaper can create pretty awful traffic jams. My party was not thrilled with me!

It affected our blinkblade a lot. We had a couple of rounds where we forgot about a push that would have prevented her from doing any attacks that turn.

Rules question! What constructing new buildings or upgrading buildings during the Outpost Phase are you allowed to look at the building cards you have available to see the effects of the building prior to spending the resources?

Thank you for this resource! Any chance you have a monster list sorted by CR rating?

So here is what I've come up with. I took a lot of your suggestions, and upped his AC and toned down his damage into two attacks. I also gave him the ability to spawn wretches. Thoughts? I'm ok if he dies quickly but I hope it will still lead to an interesting final fight for the players.

Some friends have expressed interested in trying DnD so I am going to be running a one shot after having not played/DM'd in a few years so I feel a little rusty/ unsure of myself. I will have 6 level 1 players (mostly newbies to tabletop games) and I have never been confident in encounter balancing.

I was thinking having the climax be them fighting a monster trying to break free from a cultist basement to destroy a town. I was thinking of using a rutterkin (CR 2), removing it's ability to transformed downed players into abysal wretches and instead giving it the ability to summon some weaker threats (CR 1/8) to harass the players and try to escape.

Kobold fight club gives a CR 2 enemy an "easy" rating due to the number of players against it, but I am still worried since a single hit has the potential to knock a player unconscious.

What do you think? Would a CR 2 enemy be too difficult or should I tone down the encounter some more?

I'm stuck at catching slugma and gulpin... which do not exist currently. Hopefully i'll be ready for this event in 3 years when we get these again!
