erdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size:14px">pretty clear from the title. say I've got a pack of wolves attacking an Ogre. I use mob rules, but what to do about their pack tactics ability that gives each attacker advantage? I've been houseruling it as "add +5", but it seems over powered as my PCs keep summoning wolf packs of 8 in big fights. |
| #2AaronOfBarbariaFeb 21, 2015 14:49:03 | I have been treating advantage as there being twice as many attackers present that still need the same roll to hit... haven't actually checked the math to see if that is different from treating it as +5 to the attack roll |
