I watch this channel while feeding my one year old. She has begun to nod her head every time Matt makes a point.
So the undead video is to help us find the wight answer.
Hey, here is an idea: a video about the "useless" skills/proficiencies. Making them useful and/or fun.
I did the thing you told me not to do. I threw an ogre at my players, at the end of a long hallway, plenty of time to run away. They decided to set up a rope trap and fight the 20 foot tall ogre in a small cramped hallway, and well, our Monk is pink mist now. Colville leason learned, don't throw things at your players that you don't want them to fight.
I used cr for a while. once my level 4 players took on an encounter that was considered deadly for a 10th level party and managed to win without a single death, one week later they tpked to an easy encounter. I no longer use cr.
I would totally wear a shirt with "peace" on the front and "out" on the back
Ahh, when I color correct a video, it undoes the positioning of the images. Got it figured out now, sorry for the weirdness.
I've been DMing for maybe around a year now, and I've found that I actually do my best work with the bare minimum preparation and the pressure of on-the-spot improv. You've been a massive help and inspiration. Keep it comin'!
No book ads? Am I the only one worrying about Matt now?
That Undead video looking like Half-Life 3 status right now.
"My right answer is not necessarily your right answer."
a long time ago i used to ask three questions when building an encounter
"the (CR)code is more like guide lines than actual rules"
My 5-man level-3 party defeated a Young Green Dragon, which I believe is CR-9. They just planned really well.

HOLY CRAP
As a new DM (I've only run maybe 10ish sessions) I use exp calculators like Kobold Fight club and the such to get an idea of what to send against my players. But I have taken a liking of adding legendary actions to relatively mundane creatures whom could be bosses or leaders.
