      Wolves have an intelligence of 3, few beasts "more mindless" would be aggressive enough to face tank the party. I guess all I'm really saying is that there really isn't that much in the game that should stand and deliver against the closest enemy until it dies

      OK, when I said "beast" I should really have said "monster", because things like oozes, constructs, and undead are often stupid enough to do just that

        Every single boss in my campaign is a leveled bard. I'm proving a point by minmaxing the shit out of them, but they are all legal characters. My players are gonna hate it when every boss reveal starts with a Broadway musical. My favorite is a bard with some druid spells, a speed potion, and a couple other secrets making his base speed 120. Add in tree stride, and the party will never know from what direction he will strike. High dex means high ac and a finesse weapon. Get in, strike, get out. Plenty of attacks of opportunity for the players, so it's not completely cheesing. I could give him a ranged weapon but that tastes like cheese. I want the players to have an actual hard fight with a chance to win. All this, all of it, was because my wife asked me to make a bard boss and I ran with it.

          It was clear what you meant, but you left an opportunity for someone to be *technically correct* and they jumped all over it

            Yeah, fair enough; seems we're saying the same thing then. I really got the impression from the initial comment that only uniquely smart things would use tactics. I can see how that might have been meant more broadly

                        Do people who make these memes actually play at tables like this, or is this hyperbole for the sake of clicks? Do they play at all?

                        Probably some of each. Some few might be literal retellings, some are exaggerated, some are just made up.

                          Wizard I ran DND for in didn't love this, but understood it. The real problem with that group is we kept changing DMs, and some were a lot more easy going. You gotta get on the same page as a group

                          Rotating GMs in the same campaign can work with some differences in things like this, sort of like different directors/writers for episodes of a TV show. Some weeks, there might be characters who seem favored by the gods or cast into the deepest pits of misfortune, and then the other way around the very next adventure.

                                  IIRC there are some area effect spells that damage you more, the more you move.

                                    That cheesy dashing in & out sounds great until one player has the Sentinel feat and is right after the boss in the turn order 😛

                                          Yeah, it mostly worked. Mostly. It's hard to say if my previous group worked better because they were used to my style, or just a better fit for me, or some other factor.
