Apparently, the end boss of the Old Stones Shadow Quest has a DC 19 instant death area of effect ability.
This puzzled and surprised quite a few people: mainly a party of six who all ended up in the fugue except for one person and a DM who was spicing the quest.
Numerous suggestions as to how this suddenly massive spike in difficulty could be remedied were mused over:
-Lowering the DC
-Include an IC hint within the quest
-Replacing the ability with something that affects one target instead of an area of effect
Overall, fun quest!
Yes. I thought I had seen to that already. It'll be changed.
Already fixed.
