I DM’d a group that tried to optimize every situation, and every turn off combat. That’s okay as long as it stays fun, but once they start spinning their wheels, or one player turns combat into a slog, then I take measures.

In my experience (and from what I've heard of other groups) optimisers are rarely the cause of this problem, usually it's the more casual or inexperienced players.

I love how this artist has two series; one with a different setup for the same punchline every time, and one with the same setup for a different punchline every time.

The disparity in the second group is funny. You have three that are around the power of high level spells, and then an epic level campaign BBEG's ultimate superweapon.

Not that it matters, since the Xanathar's subordinates will just replace Slygar.

Your comics are like 60% of the reason I check Lemmy.
