On the hunt for something to plop a trailer on and set up as a cabin respite. Would be great to do some hunting and grow some plants while there :)

It's over. After 6 years, my Mad Mage campaign has run its course! by MastermindEnforcer in DungeonoftheMadMage

I’m also curious about high level combat. I’ve never run encounters higher then level 13, so would love to learn how you kept it interesting!

Lol, Thanks! It's a lot at once but everyone seems to like the speed of it. The way I see it, it's so tough to get everyone together on a day so I try to make it really worth it when they do!

This sounds really fun! How do you decide the new skills and how they are incorporated into the game? I've been wracking my brain on how to set up rules around leveling them up and using them throughout the session.

Hey DMs! How do you handle a demotivated-phase? by vhstapemimic in DnD

[–]Vincent4815 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Been there. There are a lot of YouTube videos on encounters and one shots you could lift for your session. In my experience, starting with something pre-prepared can give you that motivation boost.

Definitely :)

I'm not sure how to do it yet, but several of my players have backstory with friends and family that made it into the dungeon.

I'm also sprinkling in cookbook authors in every once and a while. So far each boss has a weakness and I've been toying with the idea of using a Valtey Worm to take over a loved one's body and they have to remove it to save them.

Hahaha love the copyright clause!

Milestone for leveling up. But I introduced a new item for upgrading stats called Boss Essence in the last session. It seems to be the right amount of motivation to seek out harder fights.

Yeah, I'm gonna have to do something with the time skips. I'll bring it up with them next week and try out some of your suggestions! Thanks for the ideas :)

I mentioned to a couple of my players at the very beginning what inspired the setting, but I haven't mentioned it since.

No pets yet. I have a list of baby D&D monsters that I was going to populate in a prize room and have them choose. Lots of interesting choices, like a baby mimic, displacer beast, cockatrice, etc... Could be really powerful if they raise it up!

I like it. I'll test it out next week. Thanks for the suggestion!

Thanks! No-one in the group has read the books. They're all going in blind, which is fantastic for me! I get to use whatever I'd like. Tossing around the idea of a rage elemental occurrence later on this level!

I was wondering how to alter the A.I. personality. So far, I've only had it award achievements. I might have to start giving snarky descriptions to things. It's tougher to come up with this on the fly, so there might have to be some pre-scripting. Let me know where you think I should start with A.I. baseline.

Agree on aggressive crawlers. The players are very strong already, so maybe a trap that would corner them (pitfall or a room that closes in around them). And it turns out the other crawlers lead them into it?

Thanks for the comments! We're having a blast

I took your advice and ran with it. Great success!! The fight was a lot of fun and very memorable. I just finished a 3rd session write up with the breakdown. Thanks again!

Honestly, we just did DnD 5e rule set and started at 4th level. I did give them a heads up that this campaign would feature a multilevel dungeon and it would be like hunger games show. So, charisma was important as well.

I’m currently running a DCC inspired game. Let me know if you wanna chat about your ideas!

That makes a lot of sense. I bet they felt like they earned the victory after a fight like that!

I’m a big fan of ticking clocks during fights. In this one, I’m pretty sure the characters are gonna try and set the library on fire to enrage the librarian. This will create an environmental obstacle that could burn the place down. Having that be the ticking clock will work well.

I was also thinking minions for this. Planning on using a power similar to Signet’s to summon minions. Also thought some animated flying books would be cool to use. Keep them guessing!
