Player: “Ok, I’m going to move 30 here and use my sneak attack on the last- oh wait, I can’t, nevermind.”
Me: “Wait, why?”
Player: “He’s out of range by 5ft, I have disadvantage so no sneak attack.”
Me: “Bro just roll sneak attack, he’s the last goblin. We have cooler shit to get to this session.”
Player: “So, advantage?”
Me: “Yes advantage. Please don’t make me play one more round as this 7HP cannon fodder.”
I struggle with this… on one hand the whole point of the minions was to drain party resources. On the other it feels like I want to remove these dead zones entirely. As a player my favorite part is when the enemies are weak and we just mow through them with our basic attacks 😂 but I want it to be fair play
