Well, my group just got the HotDQ and we were up to a quick playtest. For various reasons, we are left with only 2 player characters and me DMing.
I have to make this happen. I'm too busy atm reading and setting things while, apparently, i'm in time pressure since there are only few hours left. Also, i'm not that used to dming such a small group. That's why i need help with some things and I ask for the playground's advice!
First problem i have is that both of them aren't too experienced and sometimes they may need help to keep things rolling but thats entirely up to me.
Second one is the class selection. One of my guys is going to be moon druid. Solid choice imo, especially in a duo PC group. He's ok to play something else if needed. The other one is really open to suggestions. He actually told me to pick a class for him in order to have all roles most possibly covered, just ruling out the heavy casters of 3.5 (cleric, sorcerer, wizard) cause he's bored of them and the barbarian cause he's already playing one in another campain. So, what should this guy play?
Next one that troubles me is what level should they start... I was thinking lvl3 to make even for the small party. I'd prefer to have them stronger and increase the encounter difficulty if needed rather than have them struggle and die early.
What do you guys think?
Ps:Any advice is welcome feel free to post anything you consider helpfull. I may not reply soon but i'll be reading everything so thanks in adcance!
