So, here's where I find myself. I have a party of 5 experienced gamers. One of them is a Moon Druid, so he can soak a tremendous amount of damage.
They just hit level 3, and I'm weighing how to build encounters for them. Specifically, the guide says to lower the multiplier for xp if the group has 6 or more people, and to increase it if the group has 2 or fewer. 3-5 is considered a standard group. I'm building the encounters by the book for now. Trouble is, 5 players with a Moon Druid and a good smattering of casters is pretty high power.
The question: would any of you consider lowering the xp multiplier as if the group had 6 members if the group is decently optimized, and why or why not?
