hi
Thanks to FG, I am able to restart playing RPG with old friends that live far away. I bought Lost Mine of Phandelver FG module and I am currently reading the story. I have a couple of questions thought:
1/ If I take Part 1, players will face a couple of fights/encounters that FG can transform into XP and share among players, but at the end of the part 1 store, text says : award 275XP per player, they should be at level 2 with this. 275 XP is almost a complete level 1 to level 2 reward, so does it mean I need to either reward 275XP for the whole part instead of the per encounter FG reward or shall it be both : XP reward per encounter + 275 XP at then end. I just want to avoid having my player leveling too fast vs the scenario expectations
2/ If we're all motivated, I intend to then move to the 2 Tiamat scenarios... problem they will be level 5 to start Hoard of the Dragon Queen. would you advise to adjust each encounter accordingly or to start from a different break point in the adventure. I haven't read it yet, so I don't know how it can be done, I googled a bit and found people saying we could start at part 4. Just wondering if there are people here that experienced that and what's their tought on it
thanks a lot :)
