Seems like doing this will fuck up a lot of other families . Pay people for the time they work or don ' t ask for OT . <| sep |> Then again , I do play about 50 hours per week . Somehow I don ' t believe you . Even if I did , what does it matter ? AND IN EVERY CASE THE PARTY MAKE UP MAKES NO DIFFERENCE IN THE DIFFICULTY OF THE COMBAT . Even if this were true , which it 100 % isn ' t as the other comment so deftly points out It ' s completely irrelevant . You are operating under the claim that party make up does not matter in combat . I say it does as EVEN IF DIFFICULTY WASN ' T EFFECTED MR . ANGRY ALL CAPS , the party make up effects the available options and strategic choices of both the players and the monsters . This effects combat greatly and will change each combat encounter wildly based on the party makeup . Combat with 4 fighters is going to be wildly different than combat with 4 wizards who have to keep their distance for instance . Furthermore , the difficuly IS effected A wild magic sorcerer can swing combat suddenly for one side or the other randomly , a Bard can completely remove an important member of the enemy team with enchanting spells , A paladin can stand in a doorway to create a choke point , a monk can close the distance to a spell caster easily and shut them down . All of these situations could easily trivialize an encounter that other classes may have much more difficulty in fighting . But this is part of the fun of the game Your party should be challenged by some encounters , and find others trivial as a reward for choosing the classes they wanted to . If the DM spends hours customizing each encounter so that they are all the exact same difficulty and essentially always present a set of challenges that is manageable by the party in the same way , all combat would probably be boring and literally pointless as you keep trying to argue it is . So , yeah , now I understand why you think party make up doesn ' t matter , because you make it that way . Now all I ask is that you understand that not every DM or player enjoys the game in the same way .
