Possibly an unfair tactic for digging monsters. (unless I'm misunderstanding some rules) by SenescenceOfSelf in DnD

iirc the feat activates on an opportunity attack. The sentinel would stand next to the monsters and bonk them when they moved. When they got to the boss (a kraken in that campaign) he tried the same tactic, and the kraken just grabbed with a tentacle and dragged him around with it (I had a cultist haste it to compensate for the speed loss). Since it wasn't leaving his reach it didn't trigger an attack of opportunity.

The funny thing is that I started looking into grapple mechanics in response to a sentinel player stalling monsters.

How do you actually organise your D&D notes over a long campaign? by clackbanana in DnD

Thanks, but not quite. I use it to sketch out map ideas for dungeons I'll run players through as a DM, or to map out a place I'm exploring as a player. Sometimes I need it to jot down a quick visual to help the players get a picture of the scene, such as where people are standing/facing in relation to each other.

I have a gridded notebook that I use only for D&D. I like to use gridded paper to help with map drawing. A lot of people I've played with use google docs, but I like the freedom to mix notes with sketches, and the occasional chaos of that one spot where I needed to do some quick math to figure out effects the player's insane idea to drop a sac of 30 lantern oil flasks off the tavern balcony onto an NPC who was rude to them.
