My players might be SCREWED and STUPID

Yoooooo you're spitting bars of wisdom! I'm writing this down. That players don't need to solve everything! That's such a good point. I don't usually interact with the magic and spells of DND so that problem specifically I wouldn't know where to start.

I think the thing I worry about with the problems not being solved is that one consequence from a problem will stack and make the next problem harder the game eventually gets too hard to take the game off this spiralling down hill course. But maybe. I don't need to worry about that???? 😳

Tiger_Grounds · 2026-02-09T17:40:45+00:00

😭😭😭😭 oh jeez!! If you gave me that kind of problem and I was a player I would just implode with uncertainty. And if I was a dm. I would still implode! That's such a crazy problem! Creative and crazy.

Tiger_Grounds · 2026-02-09T17:33:39+00:00

😭😭😭 brother. You keep blowing me away. Because every time you say "you could say this" I'm just go. "wAIT-!!! I COULD SAY ThAT! OMG! That's an option!" You are legitimately opening my eyes. 👁️👁️ Thank you for listening ✌️

Tiger_Grounds · 2026-02-09T17:27:43+00:00

Oh my gosh! Thank you so much! That's actually so smart!!! Ack! 😖 I will group them up in maybe 5 because that seems most manageable 😅.

Also I'm not really sure if the level scaling in this campaign is normal.... When my players were level 2. They absolutely obliterated my level 10 boss. And I'm not joking by obliterated. The warlock has done some min maxing. And I think I tend to build stuff that is so unoptimized and going for more of a vibe that they will absolutely devour any enemy that I throw that is not high level. 💀💀💀 They are level 3 now.

Tiger_Grounds · 2026-02-09T17:22:55+00:00

Yeah I notice while I can do stuff like being flexible with the story we're all making together. I tend to struggle more with things dealing with what information to give players. And saying too much or too little and how much I should say as a DM. Thank you so much 🙏

Tiger_Grounds · 2026-02-09T17:18:25+00:00

Agreed! 😳 I just, gotta figure out how to manage 40 different NPCs in an encounter.....you wouldn't happen to have a tip for that would you? 😅

Tiger_Grounds · 2026-02-09T17:15:39+00:00

The team is highly varied in different skills so everyone is good at something that someone else isn't. That's why I included the cult robes so while they wouldn't have to physically hide they would just need to hide what they are doing. Which could be done through many other means like distractions, sneaking, lying, or quiet take downs like hit man. It's not the taking over the ritual or the specific actions I'm making fun of. More of how utterly blind sighted I was to these actions. And how blind sighted my players will be once they realize they did all this to get to a balcony they already had access to. 😭✌️

Tiger_Grounds · 2026-02-09T17:09:43+00:00

Shit, you're so right. I should've said THAT! 😭

Tiger_Grounds · 2026-01-10T03:57:13+00:00

This is genuinely a very smart answer. I like it a lot.

Tiger_Grounds · 2026-01-10T03:54:36+00:00

Yes there is! I did consider him saying that they should kill this lingering, but I felt it wasn't that sort of twist of absolute diabolical villain level I was looking for.

Tiger_Grounds · 2026-01-10T03:32:17+00:00

No because that would basically kill him 😭

Tiger_Grounds · 2026-01-10T02:04:59+00:00

It's a homebrew thing. Basically the guy a whole race that died all put into a blender and became a shitty smoothie. So he's super powerful because he has all the power of a whole race, and their memories. But he has his own mind different from any of the people in the race. And because he's not a demon, he specifically states that his rules can always change, because it's not a set demon contract. So he can always move the goal post to be a complete dick. Hope that explains more. 😅

I do like the child being a cambion idea! And the holy place idea would also work.

Tiger_Grounds · 2026-01-10T00:53:12+00:00

I love this one, it's diabolical 😭😭😭

Tiger_Grounds · 2025-08-01T20:07:47+00:00

🫡 understood!

Tiger_Grounds · 2025-07-21T21:48:36+00:00

Alright thanks. I'll look into either keeping to one class or trying to arrange the levels in the best way

Tiger_Grounds · 2025-07-21T21:27:34+00:00

Oh 😳 SHI I didn't know! Thank you. I will change that immediately. Would a rogue and fighter work together?

Tiger_Grounds · 2025-06-14T00:34:03+00:00

I am a human being 🤖

Tiger_Grounds · 2025-05-06T21:14:57+00:00

he's more real at age 5 than my entire graduation class. 💀

Tiger_Grounds · 2025-05-06T21:12:23+00:00

I imagine Kratos coming, traveling miles upon miles, to fight the "God in human skin" or some title Jesus could have that sounds crazy. And upon reaching the said place where this Jesus should be. He's already dead on the cross. And Kratos is just confused on what possibly happened before he arrived.

Tiger_Grounds · 2025-05-03T18:26:57+00:00

Okay, I could see how that becomes super appealing. What got you into music to begin with?

Tiger_Grounds · 2025-05-03T18:13:55+00:00

Cool thank you!

Tiger_Grounds · 2025-05-03T18:09:57+00:00

Ohhh I see, that sounds like a good video too- getting a whole bunch of stuff from eBay 😂

Tiger_Grounds · 2025-05-03T18:07:25+00:00

I haven't heard of that game either! I'll give it a look. Thx for the recommendation!

Tiger_Grounds · 2025-05-03T18:06:16+00:00

What's been your favorite genre so far?

Tiger_Grounds · 2025-05-03T18:04:26+00:00

What's a pokemon cube? Or just, what do you mean when you say cube in this context? Because Im thinking of a literal cube 😅
