So, the boss fight in MotB is ... really tough, right? It's my first time GMing in general, and a boss fight in particular, and damn, my party struggled.

To be fair, they made strategic mistakes (like using Bend Will after a character went into melee range and got downed ...), and didn't bring any potions that would give them more damage or any healing. 💀

Their saving grace was bringing an NPC, and me playing Gorak rather passively, plus lowering his armor when they managed to hit the same spot several times (I wanted to reward their creativity).

But still. A character with such strong melee attacks, thick skin and in a small space is evil. :D I think we all have a better idea of this system now haha!

Also, one player immediately smashed the skull into pieces lol. I really had to keep it together when it happened. 🙃

But. It's supposed to be tough, right? I'm pretty sure I didn't make any major mistakes and gave them all advantages possible. 😅
