Ep.87 - Choosing Monsters for Combat

from So You Wanna Be a Dungeon Master · host Taylor & Justin

This week we’re going to be getting into the specifics of how to select monsters for combat encounters. When it comes to combat in D&D, there are many nuances and variables, some more important than others. What level is the party at? How much rest have they had? Is this meant to be easy or challenging? Where is this fight happening? How intelligent are the enemies and do they have prior knowledge of what the party is capable of? We’ll attempt to peek behind the screen and show you what works for us and hopefully you’ll walk away from this episode with a bunch of tips and tricks! And remember to give us 5 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ AND a positive review! This helps us so much!
