This week’s blog is pretty short since I wasn’t over the
moon for this week’s session. I prefer
the straight role playing parts of D&D to the straight combat parts. The party is still in the thick of battle,
which they will thankfully finish next session.
Hal is in his glory because he really plays just for combat, but I think
Carter and Tyr are starting to feel the same way I do; that it’s time to move
on from this. This was the third week of
straight combat and I’m so over it.
On top of the fact that I just generally don’t like combat
as much as role playing I’m really getting frustrated with the 5e balance of
things. The PC’s are just so overpowered
compared to the monsters and I do a lot of work tweeking things so that my
players don’t walk through combat in three rounds.
The battle they are currently in pits them against two drow,
two minotaur, two giant spiders, and a drow wizard who is the general of the
army. The players’ abilities are making it
difficult for me to get anywhere near them but I have managed to dole out some
damage between the wizard’s fireball and the minotaur’s brute strength. It helped that I rolled well. At least the guys keep things
entertaining. Tyr transformed his
shapeshifter into a medium white dragon.
He and a minotaur are currently facing off. Though I’m bored of battle it should be an
interesting encounter to finish.
